Lizzie sighs and drums her fingers on the dark brown wood of her desk. The last thing she wants to be doing is looking at papers all day but she can not change her duties unfortunately. Her bright green eyes skim over the words before her again before they glance out the window to observe the bright summer day.
Suddenly there is a knock at the door and she tenses. Her hand immediately goes to the sword at her hip; its a defense mechanism and one she is grateful for as it has saved her life many times.
"I have your afternoon tea and some letters my Lady" Smooth and melodic. The owner of that voice has done everything she has ever asked of him since he came into her service. He has saved her life even more times then her sword has.
"Come in"
The moment the words are out of her mouth the door swings open and he leads in a cart with her tea. Tall and handsome with black hair. He looks like any normal butler except for his red eyes. As he steps into the room Elizabeth can not help but raise her fingers to gently touch the black eye patch that covers her right eye. Immediately afterword though she lets her hand drop again and if he notices he doesn't mention it. Instead he just sets about pouring her tea in front of her.
"Your tea today is Earl Gray my Lady" Elizabeth nods and takes a sip, grateful for the break from her work as he picks up the letters. "You have received a letter from the Viscount of Druit; it appears he is throwing a ball and wishes to invite you." She nods displeased. She will have to go of course. She has to keep up a good outer image even if she doesn't care. There are more invitations naturally but that is the most important one. Once she finishes her tea she rises to her feet.
"Meet me in the training room Edward. I want to practice" Edward nods his head and she knows he notices how her eyes darken. She can never say his name without remembering that night. That is exactly why she gave it to him, so she will never forget the reason for her revenge.
On her way to the training room she senses a presence behind her and tenses; she whirls drawing her sword so it points directly at Edward who has appeared behind her noiselessly. He doesn't even pause though just bows before he meets her eyes not bothered by the sword pointing at him. Slowly she lowers her sword and sighs.
"I thought I told you not to do that" She knows he will never stop though. He finds her reactions amusing.
"I am sorry my Lady but I thought you would like to know that the Lord Phantomhive has just arrived"
Her eyes narrow and she grits her teeth.
"Ciel really needs to learn to send a letter first before he visits."
"I have already sent a letter to his parents but until they arrive shall we see to his needs?"
Her eyes narrow for a moment as those words bring back more memories from that time before she shakes her head and nods.
"Bring me to him."
Alright so I got inspired to do this thanks to a contest on Deviantart. Basically you take two characters from the Kuroshitsuji universe and you switch them around haha. Let me know what you think and if you find any mistakes. Also I promise that I will be continuing Color Blind I hope the next chapter for that will be out soonish.
