Well here I am again. The characters in this anime/manga just wouldn't shut up. This is going to be a sort of a one shots prequel to my story 'come to me'. It will focus on Ciel first moving to her aunt's home after her parents death and meeting Alois. Chapter length with vary and I'm open for suggestions for the one shots. This is a female Ciel and not a male one. If not to your taste read at your own discretion.
Onyxinlife.
Ciel is fourteen when she first meets Alois Trancy
"Ciel, make sure your uniform's ready for Monday. I don't want to be late"
"Yes, Aunt Angelina" Ciel said.
Her feet walked quietly across the hall and into the laundry room. Her uniform hung on the back of the door, already washed and neatly pressed. She closed the door and went to check on her aunt. She crept into her aunt's room and found her fast asleep. Ciel's heart went out to her aunt. Angelina must have exhausted herself with funeral preparations and the stress of losing her sister.
Ciel grabbed her jacket and headed out. She had been at her aunt's home during holidays but she had never really lived here. The neighbourhood was quiet and peaceful as Ciel walked along. The homes were beautifully decorated and the gardens were groomed to perfection. She could hear a few kids laughing as she entered the local park.
She bought an ice cream and lounged on a bench. Kids ran past her, laughing and giggling. She envied how innocent they were as they ran to their parents. As she sat there, the park gradually emptied as five o'clock rolled around. There was total silence as the last few children left.
A faint rustling made her turn around. The bushes behind her were moving.
"Who are you?" Ciel stood and stared at the bush as it continued shaking.
Ciel finally grew frustrated and kicked at the bush. Someone rolled out of the bush with a loud yelp.
"Who are you? Were you watching me?" Ciel asked.
"You didn't have to kick me" The blond boy stood up and brushed off his clothes.
"I'll kick anyone who spies on me, pervert" Ciel spat.
"Pervert? Hello, I was just watching you"
"So you admit you were watching me. Therefore, you are a pervert" Ciel said with a smirk.
"You're new in this town and I like to know everything" He shrugged.
"Your name?" Ciel asked.
"Why? Going to report me to the police?"
"Maybe"
"The police won't do anything. They're too used to me by now" he replied.
"I'm wasting my time just by talking to you, aren't I?" Ciel asked.
"Oh come on, I'm not that boring, am I?"
"I'm leaving" Ciel turned and began walking away.
"I'm Alois Trancy, by the way! Remember the name!" he called out.
Ciel turned and stuck her tongue out childishly at him. Alois laughed loudly, his voice echoing around the park. Ciel ran all the way back home where she endured a severe scolding from her aunt for not telling her where she had gone.
"I'm sorry. I won't do that again" Ciel apologised.
"I can let you off once, Ciel but don't do that again. I already lost my sister. I don't want to lose you" Angelina said.
Ciel hugged her aunt and then headed off to eat dinner. While she was brushing her teeth before bed, her thoughts returned to that blond boy in the park. Alois Trancy? What kind of name was that?
"Ciel, I'll be working late tomorrow so you'll have the house to yourself. If you're going out and you're going to be late then text me" Angelina called from her room.
"Aunt Angelina. Do you someone named Alois Trancy?" Ciel asked.
"Alois Trancy? He's that boy who scares children at the local park. Oh Ciel, did he do something to you?" Angelina appeared in the doorway of the bathroom.
Ciel spat into the sink, "No, he was peeking out through the bushes today. He told me his name so I was just wondering if you knew him".
"He is a very decent boy. He donates to all the neighbourhood events and to the Phantomhive museum as well. I just don't know if he actually enjoys scaring the children or if he's just bored" Angelina said.
"I'll go to bed then. Goodnight" Ciel kissed her aunt on the cheek and headed to her room.
"Goodnight, Ciel" Angelina replied just as Ciel shut her bedroom door.
As she fell asleep, Ciel realised that today, Alois Trancy had actually brought a smirk on her face. That was something that had never happened since her parents had died.
