Southern Belle
Welcome to the Phantomhive's
(Y/n) walked off of the train with a heavy sigh and a stretch. She had just arrived in London from Mississippi. Her father and mother had made a deal with a businessman named Ciel Phantomhive to house her for a few years because the unrest that was starting up again in the south and they wanted their daughter to be as far away from the trouble as possible. Her family owned a plantation that grew cotton and sugar cane, both of which Lord Phantomhive bought a copious amount from them to use in products for his company. As payment for housing her, her father sent her with $100,000, 15 crates of sugar, 10 crates of cotton and as an extra, courtesy of her cousins, whom she visited on her way to New York City, in South Carolina, some tea. Her father also sent her with an additional $50,000 for food, clothes and anything else she might need or want, he also paid for all her transportation tickets to get to London. (Y/n) had to keep tabs of all the stuff she was transporting with her, including all her luggage which kept all her immaculate dresses and hats, which she was wearing one currently. The bright and layered light pink dress made her stand out from all the more conservative Victorian dresses that the women scurrying around her wore.
As the train porters brought all her luggage and crates to her she looked around for the man that was supposed to meet her here to help her get to the Phantomhive Manor. When (y/n) was looking around in another direction someone tapped gently on her shoulder. (Y/n) turned around to see a tall man with raven black hair and red wine colored beautiful eyes.
"Are you Miss (L/n) of the (L/n) Plantation?" he asked with a soothing deep voice.
"Yes I am (y/n)- (y/n) (l/n)." she replied with a sweet southern accent, blushing a bit as she realized how sexy he looked. "And you are?"
"My name is Sebastian Michaelis, head butler of the Phantomhive Manor. I am here to escort you to the manor. Is this everything?"
(Y/n) looked around herself and counted everything to make sure it was all the stuff that was supposed to be with her.
"Yes sir." she nodded as she began to pick up some of her luggage.
"No, Miss, I will take care of everything." Sebastian said as he stopped her.
"But it's much too much for a man such as yourself to pick everything up on your own." (Y/n) protested.
"If I couldn't pick up a southern beauty's luggage and load it onto the carriage, then what kind of butler would I be?" he said smiling at her as he piled the crates on top of the carriage and tied it down after which he put (y/n)'s suitcases in the back trunk.
After he was done and (y/n) was looking around one final time to make sure they didn't forget anything, Sebastian helped her into the carriage while he guided the horses back to the manor.
While traveling to the manor (y/n) was thinking about the head butler.
'He certainly is a looker. Though I feel as if something is off about him. But still, I hope I get to have even more interaction with him in my time here.' she thought as the scenery changed from the city to the countryside.
By the time they arrived at the massive Phantomhive Manor the sun was starting to go down. Sebastian opened the door and held her hand as she climbed out of the carriage. Four people walked up to them, they looked like the other servants. They must have been there to help Sebastian. They eagerly started talking to her.
"Oh so you're the lady who's come all the way from America to live with us! You're very pretty! My name is Finny, I'm the gardener." a boy who looked more so like a girl that a boy spoke.
"Oi Finny, don't scare her off this quick, she just got here!" a taller man said with a cigarette hanging out of his mouth. He made the younger boy back behind him away from (y/n). "I'm the chef, maybe I can make you something sweet one day."
Then a red haired woman came up to her.
"My name is Mey-rin, yes it is! I am the maid." she said shaking (y/n)'s hand.
(Y/n) smiled. "My name is (y/n). Nice to meet y'all." she said as they then turned their attention to Sebastian, who had told them to take (y/n)'s luggage to her new room and the crates to the storage room. They all nodded and got to work.
An old man walked up beside her drinking hot tea out of a Japanese tea cup.
"Ho ho ho!" he said which confused (y/n).
"And that is Tanaka. Now Miss (y/n) please follow me and I'll take you to my master." Sebastian said as he opened the door for her.
"Please just call me (y/n) sir."
"And if I may say so, you can call me Sebastian."
"Okay Sebastian, please take me to Lord Phantomhive."
He complied and took her to Ciel's study where he was waiting in his chair behind the wooden desk.
"Hello (Y/n) (L/n), I am Ciel Phantomhive, welcome to the Phantomhive Manor." Ciel said.
Author's Note: So how do you like the first chapter? Let me know, I need reviews if you want me to continue this!
Anyways, your dad and mom are plantation owners, but since this is after the Civil War there are no slaves, just workers who want to be there to get paid money. And your family is against slavery anyways. Just wanted to clear that up if you wanted to know.
