Hey guys! So this is my first fan fiction on this website. If you didn't read the summary, basically Alois has a twin sister, Lady Adeline, and this is written in her POV. It's based in episode 4 (When Ciel is wearing the dress). Please R&R! I need the encouragement to continue this (usually I don't finish my stories). Anywho, on with the story!
Chapter 1
I walked into the large ballroom, late of course, and scanned the room for a little blonde boy, the boy who meant more to me than anything else in the world. I smoothed my new purple dress over with my hands before making my way across the room to where the boy was sitting. At first I thought he was daydreaming, simply starring off into space, but as I came closer I noticed he was making love eyes at someone dancing.
"Close your mouth, brother, or you're going to catch flies," I teased.
"I think I'm in love." He said, not taking his eyes off said person. I wasn't surprised. It seems that at every one of these gatherings we go to he happens to find someone who stands out to him. He was always too shy to approach them so I never really make a big deal out of it, but I still was curious.
"Who is it this time?" I asked glancing over at the dance floor, trying to pinpoint just who it might be.
"Pink dress, long blue hair, and even bluer eyes." He said, pointing her out with his finger.
I slapped his hand away.
"Now brother, you know it's rude to point." I said glancing at him, "and stare for that matter." We being nobles mean that we have to have the proper etiquette at such gatherings. My brother is usually one for breaking the rules rather than following them. He just sighed, not looking away from the person yet. I followed his gaze to see a girl, around our age, with the most beautiful long blue hair that was tied up into two pony tails. Her pink ball gown was lovely with delicate black detailing. Of course brother would fall for her, she's gorgeous. Wait a second. Her? Last time I checked my brother was 100% gay.
"Brother, you do realize that's a girl, right?" I asked.
"Trust me sister, I know terrible cross dressing when I see it." He said, glancing over at me finally. "You look pretty, sister"
I smiled at him then looked back over at the girl/boy, looking closer now. I could kind of see now his boyish features behind the makeup and wig. He also seemed very unhappy in the dress so I knew he couldn't be a dedicated cross dresser.
"Do you know who he is?" I asked.
"Well, I did some asking around before you got here and learned that he's Madame Red's niece," he nodded his head over to a woman with a very odd red haircut and a beautiful red dress, "but Madame Red doesn't have a niece, she has a nephew: Ciel Phantomhive. I believe that's him."
"Interesting," I said to myself, looking the strange boy over with my brother, "And who's he dancing with?"
"I believe that's his tutor," he said. "Probably just another lie though." I could tell he was smiling now without even looking up at my brother.
"Would you be a dear and introduce us, sister?"
"Why don't you ask Claude to do it?" I said, even though I knew the demon was standing right behind me. I hated him so I really didn't care if he was listening or not. I felt as if my brother was becoming too attached and dependent of the butler. At times it seemed he trusted Claude more than his own dear sister. He was a fool for ever making that bloody contract in the first place to get revenge on the person who killed his brother, Luca. He wasn't even really related to Luca in the first place, and revenge is such a stupid thing, especially when your soul is on the line.
"Why can't you just do this for your favorite twin brother," He said, batting his eyes at me.
"You're my only twin brother." I responded, annoyed.
"Exactly."
"Fine," I groaned, getting up and walking over to where the boy was standing with his so called tutor, panting.
"What a terrible lady," I said to myself, "She can't even stand a single dance." I brushed the thought away as I approached the two.
"Hello, I'm Lady Adeline." I curtsied for them before continuing. "My brother, Alois Trancy, would like to speak to you." I said, emphasizing the you so he'd understand that I meant him alone.
"And what are you, his footman?" He asked before getting elbowed by his tutor.
"Behave," I heard him whisper to the young boy who just glared at him.
"Fine." He spit out like it was painful to say.
"Right this way," I said leading him over to my brother. I gave Alois a wink before walking away to give them some privacy.
I stood from across the room starring to make sure I wouldn't eavesdrop on them. I have a terrible habit of doing that and that's how I ended up learning about my brother's demon butler.
"That bastard," I said under my breath to Claude. I looked over at him to find him staring back at me. I gave him a smug smile, knowing he heard me, before turning my gaze elsewhere. It seemed to land on Ciel's tutor. He was staring at Ciel with peering red eyes. Red? The only other person I know with red eyes is Claude…
"Sister!" I heard Alois's voice clear as day calling for me. I ran over to him quickly as to not keep him waiting. "I have wonderful news," he said when I finally approached, glancing over at a very irritated Ciel standing in front of him, "Ciel Phantomhive and his butler shall be staying at our estate as guests for the next couple of days."
"Please, could you say it any louder?" Said Ciel, obviously worried about people realizing that he was Ciel Phantomhive dressed as a girl.
"Brother, I don't think that's a good idea." I said remembering how much the man reminded me of Claude.
"Nonsense! Claude and I discussed it earlier and he thought it was a bloody good idea." He said with much excitement. I glanced over at that man that I had grown to hate so much. It was his turn to wear a smug smile. I glared at him hoping Alois would notice my irritation. He didn't. Suddenly, though, Claude's eyes shifted to stare at someone else. I followed his gaze to see him and Ciel's butler staring at each other with hatred. I was just happy to have someone else on my side.
"My lord," said the butler to Ciel without taking his eyes off of Claude, "I agree with Lady Adeline. Maybe we should save this for another day." Ciel simply smiled.
"Oh, so you don't think you can protect me on foreign grounds?" Ciel teased.
"No, I'm just concerned for your well-being, my lord," said Sebastian, looking down at Ciel now. He honestly did seem concerned. I wonder if Claude ever cared about Brother this much.
"Well, it's not your decision," said Ciel as I was pulled back into their conversation.
"Very well," said Sebastian, trying to hide his irritation. "I will send for your bags."
"I have some business to take care of before I leave," said Ciel, directing his words towards my brother, "I will announce to you when I'm done for our leave."
"I'll be waiting, my young mistress," said Brother before taking Ciel's hand and gently kissing it. At first Ciel blushed madly, completely dumbfounded, but then he pulled his hand away and left in disgust to go talk to the Lord Druitt.
"Women," said Alois, laughing at his own joke. When he noticed I wasn't joining in with his laughter he glared at me. I simply ignored him like I always did when he's mad at me for idiotic things like this.
"Brother, I think his butler is a demon." I whispered.
"I know." He said staring at the man with hatred in his eyes.
"What's wrong?" I asked, taking his hand so he'd look at me.
"Claude said that's the demon that killed my brother."
