"Come Alois, Hannah has breakfast ready." The young boy mumbled sleepily into his pillow.

"I didn't quite catch that, could you repeat it?" Claude requested leaning over the bed and listening carefully. Alois yawned.

"Ten minutes." He mumbled pulling the blanket closer, Claude sighed

"It will be cold by then, Hannah would be very upset if she did all that work and you didn't-"

"You and I both know she wouldn't. She's very understanding."

"Be that as it may, it is not polite in the slightest, Come now, your brother is already at the table." The demon was beginning to lose his patience. Though everyone had to admit that his temper had improved since he joined the family that Hannah had created for them.

"Must mornings be made difficult?" Claude grumbled quietly.

"What was that Claude, are you being rude to me, for someone that wants to spend eternity making up for what you did, you're not doing a very good job right now." Alois sat up and stretched.

"Finally, now if you will just-" Before he could finish the sentence, The boy laid back down. Claude let out a soft growl.

"Absolutely not. You are no longer my master and I feel as though I am well within my rights to act accordingly." The demon lifted the teen from the bed, holding him at arm's length.

"What are you doing, put me down!' Alois began fighting against the demon's grip.

"I will put you down at the table. I would advise you not to fidget."

"You're really going to carry me like this aren't you, as far away from you as possible?" irritation was clearly heard in the boy's voice.

"Yes." The demon began to walk toward the door before stopping beside the closet.

"It might be a good idea to grab your robe, It's a bit chilly today." He lowered Alois just enough to pick up the object.

"Got it," he confirmed. "Bet Sebastian never treats Ciel this way." Again Claude stopped and shifted Alois this time they were now facing each other.

"I would not know what the hell those two do. I am not Sebastian. Perhaps you have forgotten who you're talking to. However, if you're so interested in finding out, I'm certain I could find them for you. They may even be happy to see you, so happy in fact, they may invite you to dance."

"Sometimes I hate you Claude."

"I do not exist for you to approve or not. The world does not revolve around Alois Trancy." The journey to the breakfast table seemed to take longer than usual. Once downstairs, the demon pur the boy down.

"Put on your robe, then you may go and sit in your usual place." Alois rolled his eyes but did as he was told.

"Brother!" Luka shouted excitedly as He entered, Claude followed behind.

"Hello Luka." Alois offered the younger boy a smile as he lowered himself into his chair.

"Good morning Hannah." He said sweetly. The female demon grinned.

"Good morning Alois, how did you sleep?" She set a plate in front of each boy.

"Looks lovely, thank you." They said in unison, Luka giggled.

"We said the same thing at the same time, that's funny."

"Yes, how very amusing."

"Claude!" Hannah said sharply, he fell silent.

"Don't listen to him Luka, he's cranky."

"You little-"

"That's more than enough." Hannah interrupted. She could already tell it was going to a very long day.
