Pairing: Sebastian Michaelis x Fem!reader

-------------------------------------------------------------------

Upon your arrival at Phantomhive manner you could never have imagined how this would play out.

Entering the large mansion for the first time, you were greeted by the four other working staff; they welcomed you with open arms explaining that the young master and his butler were off on a business trip for the next few days. When the Queen sent you, one of her personal maids, to start working in Phantomhive manner, it confused you. You didn't know what had prompted this, nor were you really in a position to question it. You thought that as her half angel, half demon maid, she wouldn't let you stray very far away from her, but alas, here you were.

They gave you a tour of the grand mansion and stopped by your small living quarters to let you settle. Due to your supernatural nature, that they were unaware of, it wasn't too hard to settle in, especially, after they had tested your reflexes to aid in "the Phantomhive welcome".

You had been at the mansion for a couple of days now, the Lord himself and his butler were due to arrive anytime from last night. While you knew the Lord could be the tiniest bit caring, you still thought you ought to make a good impression sicne the Queen didn't care to mention how long you would be here.

The sound of brisk knocking brought you out of your thoughtful daze as you finished buttoning up your shirt's cuffs. The noise startled you as in your few days at the manor, you were the one to be awake and working before the others.

"Excuse me, may I come in?" A deep voice followed the knocking, which prompted you to step towards the door and open it for the individual outside.

A small gasp left the dark haired males lips as his eyes locked with yours and a sense of familiarity washed over you.

"Oh! Goodmorning, you must be Sebastian, the head butler. I'm Y/N, the maid sent by the Queen to serve the young Lord. It's lovely to finally meet you, I'll introduce myself to the Lord when he leaves his quarters." A smile graced your face as you rambled on, not taking notice of his initial look of shock, and his alluring features studied you.

The familiarity and comfort his face brought you was confusing. Being fairly young compared to other angels and demons, surely you'd remember everyone you've met? He had a strange aura, almost definitely supernatural. You couldn't quite place where you had seen him before and that was going to be on your mind the whole day.

"You are correct, I am Sebastian. Please come to me if you have any concerns or require help. You can continue with your daily duties then and I shall be seeing to the young master now" with a quick bow, he briskly started walking away.

There was a constant elegance to him; it kept your eyes trained on him until he rounded the corner. That feeling of familiarity still lingering within your heart.

Sebastian paused after he had turned the corner to make sure he was out of your view. You had always owned his heart, and you would forever more. The reincarnations of you kept him going through his endless demon life. In this life and the next you two were promised to each other, a constant that you both needed in lives that lasted as long as yours would.

It was just a shame that you were cursed to forget him until you crossed paths, and even then, it took time for you to recollect and gain all your previous memories. He had one item that he had gifted to you in your last existence together, he had to try jogging your memory, right?

As the day continued on, quick introductions were exchanged between you and the young Lord before you were due to get back to your usual tasks. Sebastian by his side sparing glances at you any moment he could get when he thought no one was looking. Unbeknownst to him, a certain Phantomhive was very observant of it all. So he did what anyone would do and asked him about you.

"Sebastian, what is your connection to the new maid?" Ciel questioned, pausing his musical studies briefly to peek up at his butler.

"I don't seem to understand what you mean, my Lord" the raven haired male sent a quick glance back at the boy before continuing.

"You seemed very distracted by her this morning" the younger male mused before too continuing with his music.

Although Sebastian wouldn't say it, Ciel was right. You had invaded his head space since his eyes gazed over you this morning and he only wished that you remembered him quicker.

Reaching into his tail coat pocket, he checked that he still had the pendent. He knew it was there, it was just a force of habit that he checked and now it mattered most. He had carried the crimson pendant since your last passing, almost fifty years ago now.

"She's my mate, my lover. She loves me, and I her, for eternity..." it was only quiet, but Ciel heard it.

"Shouldn't she be running into your arms then? That's what most novels say isn't it?" This situation had peaked Ciel's interest more so than before, you had only given the butler a few glances when focusing on your formal introduction to the Lord. He would have expected more longing looks for what sounded like such a profound love.

"Not all love stories are that of novels, my lord. There was once a curse placed upon us, she may only regain her previous memories after meeting me again, and even then it must be prompted by something"

"Well? What are you going to do?"

"Ah, always a curious one aren't you, my Lord? I shall deal with it later, for now you need to get back to your studies" And so he did. Sebastian decided he would confront you later, but now he just needed to figure out how. It's not a very simple thing to spring upon someone you've just met. If you didn't regain your memories then you'd probably think he was a lunatic, or just a very big flirt.

The day had passed and night was closing in. The raven haired demon had prepared himself for this moment; he had waited patiently for so many years. With his gloved hands tightly clutched around the vermillion pendent, he took cautious strides towards your figure. Your back was turned away from the rest of the room as you dusted a tall cabinet in the corner.

A light tap was detected on your left shoulder causing you to whip your head round and meet the striking blood coloured eyes of the man behind you.

"Excuse me, but I think this belongs to you" he uncurled his fingers as he spoke to reveal a ruby pendant necklace and a tight lipped smile grew on his face.

"I'm sorry, you must be wrong. But as a maid I could never own such a high value item" the very prominent apologetic tone was laced with disappointment, he could tell you were just as infatuated with the ruby as you were when he first gifted it to you those many years ago.

"Oh on the contrary, my love" he reached forward to lightly pull your hand closer to his, placing the chain into your palm.

The look of bewilderment was obvious in your face, he had just addressed you as "my love" whilst giving you a piece of jewellery no maid would own. As he closed your palm around the accessorie it was like a warm familiar feeling filled you. Short memories were unveiled and unlocked in your mind, memories of him.

You began to hesitantly move your free hand to his face to cup his cheek, you had spent decades apart and were finally reunited and it all felt too good to be true.

"Going by Sebastian I see? I could get used to that" a teasing smile broke out on you face and Sebastian's smile widened as he saw your old self shining through.

He couldn't wait a moment longer and pulled your face forwards to meet his lips.

You made a mental note to thank the Queen for sending you here, and hoped that you'd be by his side for eternity once more.
