~Erin's POV~

I skipped through the long hallways of the Phantomhive Manor, heading to Ciel's study to pester him a little. Humming to a random song, I suddenly came to a halt when I felt a well-built chest against my back and two arms snaking around my waist. Looking curiously at those arms I knew too well, I glanced up at Sebastian quizzically, waiting for some sort of explanation.

"Ah ah ah, you're mine and only mine. May I ask why my lady was skipping happily towards my master's study?"

For some reason, Sebastian couldn't read my mind, so he had to ask everything he wanted to know. I rolled my eyes and let out an irritated sigh.

"Sebastian. First: I belong to no one. Second: I thought that I should pester Ciel a little. He hasn't been giving me the attention I need. Unlike a certain *cough* demon *cough* butler of his. Now, would you be so kind as to release me?"

I pinched his arm and raised an eyebrow; he frowned slightly, but reluctantly let go of me. I turned to face him and beamed at the frowning butler.

"Thanks! Oh, I forgot to tell you..."

I trailed off. Was it really a good idea to tell him that Grell invited me to visit that library where there are thousands of cinematic records...? Well, it's not like this was a date, right? I mean, a bunch of good looking, freaking sexy and attract- *ahem* grim reapers will be there with me as well... While I was wondering all these things and trying to contain a major nosebleed, Sebastian was frantically shaking my shoulders to wake me up from that daydreaming of mine. When I snapped up, he sighed in relief and asked for the millionth time already.

"What did you not tell me, Lady Erin?"

"Never mind! It's not important!"

Then I spun on my heels and attempted to get away from him, failing epically. He grabbed my arm and pulled me against his damn sexy chest once more. My arms were both on his thorax as he held me tightly with an arm around my waist and the other hand still on my wrist. Of course, as the skilled demon he is, he managed somehow not to hurt me. And I managed somehow not to blush, but actually stare blankly at his crimson eyes. We stayed at that staring competition until he smirked and leaned closer, whispering seductively in my ear. Very, very seductively.

"Now, now... I absolutely disapprove lies, my dear Erin... I shall punish you, unless you tell me exactly what you forgot to tell me, right now. What do you say, my lady?"

He backed away to face me, that sly smirk still on his handsome features while he analyzed my facial reactions. I was inhumanly blank. Almost like a doll. I was, in fact, absorbed in deep thought when an idea popped in my brain. I stared intensely inside his red orbs and smiled innocently. He arched one eyebrow at me, questioningly, probably thinking that I had given up way too easily. 'Surprise!'

"CIIIIIIIIIIIIEEEEEEEEEEEEELLLLLL!"

I screamed with all my might and tried to sound as terrified as possible. It worked. While Sebastian stood there, still holding me, with a priceless expression, I waited for five seconds exactly until Ciel came running from the corner behind me.

"ERIN! What is happening?!"

Sebastian glanced at his master, then me, then his master, me again. Ciel did the same, his butler, then me. Then he had wide eyes and a scowl on his face. 'Hehehe...'

"SEBASTIAN! What do you think you are doing?!"

"No, Young Master, it is not what you think at all!"

He spoke calmly, trying to explain himself, but for some reason, he still hadn't released me yet. And I stood there, looking at Ciel with crocodile tears and pleading eyes.

"Ciel! Help me! Sebastian tried to do...things to me! I was just going to offer you some help with your paperwork and he attacked me!"

Ciel glared at Sebastian, who stood there, stunned.

~Sebastian's POV~

I stood there, holding Erin and staring at her incredulously. 'She seduced me without even noticing since day one in this estate. She even was able to make those troublemakers Meyrin, Finny and Bard work without destroying anything - and she's not even a maid! Then the Earl apparently took a liking to her. Now she made him panic and actually run to rescue her when she cried out for him and made him glare in an almost maniac way towards me. Just what in Hell is she and how the fuck does she do this?!'

"Sebastian."

I looked up at my master only to realize how close he was. He slapped me across the face and snatched the girl from my arms into his own. She faked a few sobs in his chest while he held her protectively. I was in complete and utter shock. 'My master wasn't so easy to trick. But then again, you really are something, aren't you, Erin?' I thought while looking at her. I got down on one knee and put a hand over the place where my heart should be.

"Young Master. I do apologize for my behavior. I assure you it will not happen again."

"I surely do hope so."

Ciel said coldly before snarling at me. He glanced at Erin and immediately softened his gaze and started walking to his room. I saw her looking up at me and I could tell she wanted to laugh badly. 'She's surely an unpredictable one, is she not? My master was certainly captivated by her, just as... Everyone else...?! Oh my. The girl's unbelievable. Is she even real?'

~Erin's POV~
I just looked up to see Sebastian's face and had to hold up to not burst out laughing. Seriously, this was AWESOME! He was staring at me and Ciel incredulously, as if we were nearly headless. I pressed my face against Ciel's amazingly strong chest and walked away to wherever he was taking me.

After some time, we reached our destination. I looked up only to recognize Ciel's bedroom. I glanced up at him curiously and tilted my head to the side, waiting for an answer as I sniffed weakly. He smiled. Yes, SMILED! And I could almost literally feel the butterflies in my stomach. Then he wiped those fake tears off of my face with his thumb while cupping my cheek. I smiled sheepishly and put my hand over his.

"Thank you... Ciel..."

And I lost myself in his dark blue orb. It held so much care and... Something else... Love? 'Wait! No no no no NO! He couldn't possibly be... In love, could he? WITH ME?! But he has Elizabeth! I can't do that to her! He will never be mine...' He must've noticed my pain, because he just smiled again and spoke, not louder than a whisper.

"Do not worry, my dear... I can always call off the engagement... I love you..."

I froze on the spot. Ciel had just confessed to me. THE Ciel Phantomhive confessed to ME! Oh joy! He took that as a bad sign and regret filled his handsome face. I looked at him and spoke in a serious tone.

"Ciel, do you really mean it?"

He had an offended expression; I couldn't help but to giggle at the sight.

"Why, of course I am! Is there a reason why I would possibly be joking about, my lady?"

My expression saddened as I proceeded to stare at the ground. I thought about every single person who already left me alone, the last image being my mother. The floor seemed extremely interesting now, for some reason.

"I'm afraid, Ciel… It's quite the challenge, you see, to believe someone actually cares about me. Everyone abandoned me but my father, and I'm tired of being the fool when all people do is to disappoint me! I wouldn't bear it if you-"

He put a finger on my lips and just stared inside my dark purple orbs as though staring at my very soul. 'Oh God, why do I have to have a crush on him too?!' He leaned in while closing his eye and kissed me. 'This is no good, no good at all! But...I wonder if he can do that thing with the cherry stem...?' And I melted in the kiss. Our lips moving in perfect sync, his tongue asking for entrance. 'What if...?' And I denied. Let's see what he's capable of. I felt him smirk in the kiss and the hand that was resting on my hip lowered to grab my ass. 'Boy, that escalated quickly!' Giggling, I finally let him in, unfazed by the low hand. My hands moved to his neck and played with his hair while our tongues fought for dominance. I won. I guess he let me win, but whatever. He then squeezed my ass with both of his hands as he lifted me up, and I instantly wrapped my legs around his waist. He walked up to his bed and threw me there. I was panting a little, it was a long kiss. He looked at me, his blue eye filled with lust. 'Oh dear God, he's really so eager to do it now...?' He climbed on the bed and was on top of me; we kissed again, and I couldn't hold back anymore. I wanted it as bad as him. He descended to my neck, nipping, sucking, licking. I was able to hold in my moans, but Ciel soon found my soft spot and started working there. All the while I was unbuttoning his clothes and he hadn't noticed yet. 'Oh my, the boy's good! I should've known this is not his first time...!' I let out a soft moan and he chuckled darkly against the skin of my neck.

"C-Ciel... Do you really wanna do it, like, now?"

I said, breathing heavily and praying that he would just claim me then and there. He practically glared at me, before speaking in an extremely husky voice.

"Yes. I want to make you mine... now!"

I smirked cunningly at him.

"Yes, my lord."

He smirked back and started to undress me. He was rather surprised to find out he was only in his underwear, almost comical if I wasn't in such need of him. 'Too slow...! If he doesn't take me right here and now…!' Then I started to help him remove my clothes. Panties and bra. 'Good.' He began to massage my breasts with his hands as he kissed me roughly; my moans muffled by his hungry mouth. My hands slid smoothly over his abs, reaching the boxers' waistband when the damn door burst open to reveal a blonde ball of hyperactivity a.k.a. Elizabeth Midford.

"CIEEEEL~! I've been looking for you fore-"

Then she saw us. Poorly dressed. Kissing on the bed. Ciel and I stared at her wide eyed and said simultaneously.

"Crap."
