AN: This takes place three years after Ciel is turned into a demon and since Sebastian and Ciel have left. This is somewhat Crack but I'm trying to have a solid plot. I made a cross over from a different anime, won't say yet which it is though! Please enjoy! R&R!
The sunlight came over the manor as Finni ran through the backyard of the old Phantomhive home. He ran over to a tree, carrying a pair of hedge scissors with him. He sat down and looked up at the sky with a sad smile on his face. "It's been three years since Mr. Sebastian and the young master have left us. I sure do miss them." He sighed, standing up.
"Oi, Finni!" Finni looked towards the backdoor where he saw Bard waving at him. "It's time ta' come back in for breakfast!"
"Coming!" He yelled, leaving his scissors near the tree and running back towards the mansion. "Yay!"
Mey-Rin was in the servants' dining room where she had just finished setting down the plates for the four of them. She sighed as she placed the last plate on the table. "There we are, yes yes." She wiped the sweat from her forehead as she moved towards the window. "Three years…I hope they're doing okay, yes I do." As she turned her back, a sound of what sounded like a carriage was heard. "W-what?" She ran back towards the window. "We weren't expecting anyone today, no we weren't!" She looked as best as she could from the window, her glasses still cracked, and saw a horse drawn carriage pulling up the drive way that looked just like the carriage that had taken Sebastian and Ciel that day. "I-it couldn't be…" Mey-Rin's heart quickened as she began to run up the stairs. ~It just couldn't be?~
Bard was in the kitchen finishing up breakfast while Finni sat at the table waiting to help Bard bring the food to Mey-Rin. Finni was kicking his legs in the air as he sat on the bench, until the sound of… "…Horses?" They both questioned looking at each other. They looked towards the door where they say Mey-Rin running though the hall to the main entrance room. "Where is she—"
"Bard, look!" Finni yelled, pointing out a carriage that looked so similar to—
"It couldn't-?" Finni zoomed past Bard as Tanaka stood from his corner walking behind Finni. "Oi you two!" Bard sighed running after them. He picked up Tanaka as he raced with Finni to the door.
As Bard and Tanaka made it the entrance, Mey-Rin and Finni stood there with shocked expressions on their faces. "Hey- what's wrong with you…?" Bard turned towards where they were looking. His jaw dropped as his cigarette fell to the floor. "S…se…"
"Sebastian…."
Standing at the opened grand door were those two who had left them three years ago; those two who had spent so much of their life together and given them this home.
Ciel stood at the door with Sebastian behind him with a smile on his face. Ciel's black hat remained on his head, his cape flapping slightly with the wind that was hitting his back. He sported the same black outfit that he wore the day he left them. Sebastian was also wearing his traditional butler outfit and his trench coat on top.
They all stood just staring at the two of them. "Have I taught you all nothing about proper manners when you receive a guest?" Sebastian grinned at them, being the first of the two to speak.
"Young Master…" They all turned their attention to the Earl, Ciel Phantomhive, with tears in their eyes. Ciel looked up at them. As he was about to speak the entire group attacked him with giant hugs as they cried. "We've missed you so much, yes we have!" "We're so happy to have you back!" "That's right!" "Ho ho!"
Ciel stood there suddenly feeling very claustrophobic. Sebastian laughed behind his hand at the affection their servants were giving his young Lord.
"I think that's enough for now you four, I am certain you have cooked food and our young master is hungry." Sebastian spoke, pulling Ciel towards him, wrapping his arms around Ciel. Ciel breathed quickly trying to regain all the air he had lost in the embrace. They all stared at the two, noticing and feeling the new sense of aura that surrounded the two.
"Of course we do!" Bard spoke raising his fist in the air.
"Y-yes that's right!" Mey-Rin spoke smiling. "I will go get the silverware, yes!" She exclaimed running down the hall as Bard followed.
"Very good." Sebastian commented. "Now Finni, would you mind carrying our young Lord's bags to his room?" Sebastian spoke looking towards the young blonde. He smiled and saluted Sebastian with a confirmation as he ran outside to collect the bags, Tanaka walking out with him. "I told you they would miss you, Bocchan." Sebastian smiled kissing Ciel's cheek, as he removed Ciel's hat and cape.
Ciel blushed turning his head away and putting his hand in front of Sebastian. "Alright, alright, let's just go to the dining hall." Ciel spoke, moving away from the demon butler. Sebastian smiled and bowed where he stood.
"Of course, my young Lord." Sebastian followed him, while he hung the hat and cape on the coat racket.
Ciel was seated at the head of the table as all the servants minus Sebastian sat as well. Ciel took a bite out of his eggs as all the others were eating their food.
Sebastian looked over at his young lord. Ciel made a weird face at the taste of the food and set his fork down. He reached over for his tea but set it down as well. It smelt very weak and watery. Sebastian hid his smile behind his hand.
"I know it ain't as good as Sebastian but I've come a long way from before." Bard spoke grinning. Finni and Mey-Rin nodded their heads smiling.
"Um…young master?" Ciel looked up towards Finni, who seemed nervous.
"Yes Finni." He spoke smoothly, pushing his plate from him.
"Well if it's alright to ask…why did you come back?" Mey-Rin covered his mouth.
"I think what Finni means is that we are very happy to have you back, yes we are. But why did you return when you said you would leave us to everything." Bard and Finni let out a sigh of relief as Mey-Rin corrected Finni's error.
Ciel looked up at Sebastian, who returned his gaze. Ciel turned his attention back towards the others and sighed. "I've returned to the Phantomhive estate for certain reasons, ones that may become a shock to you. " Ciel spoke, while standing from his seat. "But first things first are that…" Ciel looked down embarrassed and held a small blush on his face. Sure he was a demon but even when it came to the topic of him and Sebastian he still held human qualities for them. The servants looked interested in him.
"It would seem that the young master and I are a bit more than we lead on to be." Sebastian spoke standing behind Ciel, while placing his hand on Ciel's shoulder as Ciel looked down, his face a fierce red.
"…"Silence filled the room until. "Kya~!" Mey-Rin squealed receiving a nosebleed in the moment.
"That's amazing!" Finni yelled happily.
"I knew you two were close but..." Bard smiled either way for them. Tanaka smiled and nodded, letting out a sigh of joy.
Ciel stared wide-eyed at them. Sebastian smiled and whispered down in Ciel's ear, as all the others were speaking to each other in excitement, "I told you they would accept us, Bocchan." Ciel turned his head away with a small glare on his face.
"We are also planning on raising a child here with you all." Sebastian continued, straightening himself up from where he was bent. All chatter stopped as they stared at them.
"A child? You mean like a-"
"Baby?" Finni and Mey-Rin finished Baldroy's sentence, with wide eyes.
"Yes. I thought this was the best place to raise a child so that it can have a big family." Ciel added, while having a flushed face.
"Fam-" "Il-" "Ly?" The three squealed with smiles. "The young master considers us family!" They screamed happily, hugging each other, as Tanaka turned into his real self and smiled walking towards Ciel and Sebastian.
"My young lord, it will be an honor for me to be able to continue serving the Phantomhive family." He spoke bowing.
"Thank you Tanaka. You have served my family for many years and your continued service will be a great part of my child's life." Ciel said, giving him a smile.
Tanaka turned back in to his chibi self, letting out a, "Ho, ho..."
"Now, now," Sebastian interrupted the others as they chatted, clapping twice. "I am certain you all have work to do."
"He's only been back two hours, and already he's bossing us around." Bard mumbled to himself. As he grumbled Finni and Mey-Rin huddled close together, looking terrified at Bard. "What are you two looking at?" Bard turned his head and froze.
"Is there something you'd like to share, Baldoy?" Sebastian asked, with an overly sweet smile on his face. Before Bard could respond, Sebastian bonked him on the head.
"Ow..." he groaned, rubbing the top of his head where a new bump was forming.
"Now then." Sebastian spoke, straightening himself. Sebastian seemed to be observing the room, while Ciel decided to sit again, staring distastefully at the food. "It seems you all were able to manage keeping the estate in order." They all grinned in pride. "However, the dusting is a different issue." Sebastian commented.
"Dusting?" the three looked around to room, finally noting all the piles of dust as Tanaka appeared in every scene giving out a small groan.
Sebastian sighed; his head fell to his fingers, tilted down, while he shook it. "Why do I even bother?"
"Don't worry Mr. Sebastian!" Finni yelled happily.
"We'll get this done, yes we will." Mey-Rin added cheerfully.
"And I got the per-"
"No flamethrowers." Sebastian added, cutting off Bard.
"Man..." Bard grumbled, while the other two saluted. They all ran out in search of cleaning supplies, their fists in the air, as Tanaka followed them marching.
Ciel began to walk out of the dining hall until Sebastian grabbed him from behind. Ciel stood there for a moment, waiting for the butler to let go. When he didn't, Ciel sighed and leaned back against the elder's chest. "That was a very kind thing for you to say, Bocchan." Ciel looked away from the butler.
"Yeah, yeah. Now let me go. I am very tired from the trip." Ciel spoke, looking up at his butler, his uncovered eye as blue as when he was human. Sebastian smiled internally. Though he loved his young master no matter what he was, he especially loved when the young boy held more of a human aura, especially with the boy's brilliant blue eyes.
"Is that an order?" Sebastian smirked, as he leaned his face down to his young master's. Ciel closed his eyes, feeling the butler's breath wash over him.
"No." Sebastian placed his lips over Ciel's, kissing the young earl softly as he pulled the young earl closer. Ciel kissed Sebastian back, his hand moving up to the brunette's smooth cheek. He pulled away a minute after. "Enough, you're hurting my neck." Ciel complained, walking out the door. Sebastian gave an exasperated smile while following his young lord.
