Hey guys! This is my first Black Butler fanfiction and so I hope you'll like it! Please be patient with me and reviews would be loved if you have any suggestions for me or you just want me to update *coughs* *coughs* haha!

Anyways, on with the story! Enjoy~

"I'm so sorry for your loss, milady. Everyone gives you their condolences. But if only you would stop cooping yourself up in this roo-"

"No."

Paula looked taken back. "P-pardon, milady. I-I'm afraid I don't understand..."

"No. I'm not getting out of this room."

"But milady-"

Tears started coming of Elizabeth's eyes again. "Everything...everyone I love is gone. What do I have left?... Who do I have left?...First, Uncle Vincent and Auntie Rachel. Then, Auntie Red. And now...Ciel? Everyone I love is gone now, Paula. They're all gone now," the last phrase came out as a whisper.

"The only thing I have left of them is this mansion. This...room. Ciel's room... eveything that he used...the bed he slept in...that's all I have left now. So do you understand...I can't leave this room...if I do...It's gonna be like forgetting Ciel. I can't do that..."

"I don't even know what to do anymore! Ciel was what kept me going, but he's not here now! So what will I do now... Oh, Ciel, why do you have to leave me?..."

"Ciel...he was my first friend who became my best friend. He was also my fiance... but now he's gone..."

Paula knew that her Lady Elizabeth wasn't one to brawl out. But this was a totally different story. This was her fiancé. "No, milady! Yes, young master Ciel might be gone, but in reality, he's not. He will forever be in our hearts and those who loved him. When you say all your beloved ones are gone, your wrong too. Lady Francis, Lord Alexis, your brother Edward, and me too...aren't we all your love ones as well? Do you think that we like seeing you hurt like this and all cooped up in this room. All the more, do you think that young master Ciel would have wanted you neglecting food and sleep because of him. If he were here, wouldn't you think that he would reprimand you for being so foolish..." Paula looked at her straight into the eyes with determination. Then suddenly she blushed a bit. "Forgive me for my abruptness milady. It was only my intention to change your mind. So please, stop this. I'm begging you on behalf of your family with all my heart, to please stop this..."

It was Elizabeth's turn to be taken back. "Paula..." After much thinking about her own family, she told her, "Alright, I'll return back home. I'm sure mama and papa have been worried about me. Oh, as well as Edward. I can imagine all the scolding that I'll get from everyone...but I guess I'm at fault here..." Then for the first time since her dear beloved fiance's death, she smiled a true smile.

Paula looked ecstatic. "Milady!" Then she hugged her. "Welcome back, Milady. It's good to have you back."

Elizabeth's POV

It's been 2 years since that fated day.

And not once did he slip my mind.

A lot has happened since then. Elizabeth Midford became Elizabeth Phantomhive. I started living in the Phantomhive Estate, and of course, acted as such.

Then he, came.

"Milady, the carriage has arrived." He informed me. A red hue in his eyes could be seen.

I paused for a second, then said, "I'll be right there."

I chuckled a bit, and whispered, "I am, after all, the Queen's Watchdog."

So...whadya think? Like it? Love it? Good first impression? Well tell me by reviewing. Reviews come with updating so...
