Chapter 1: Good Morning

It started off as a typical Monday morning. I was underneath the covers in my bed, snuggling with my various anime plushies. I had so many, they practically smothered me while I slept. Not that I minded—having those kinds of cuddle buddies around was just the type of thing an otaku like me enjoyed.

I rolled over to my side, and opened my eyes slightly, glancing at my clock. The time read 8:00a.m. The corners of my mouth drooped. I guess snuggling time has to be over until later. I sat up and arranged the plushies on the pillow case. I had ones from all different anime—Sailor Moon, Hetalia, Attack On Titan, and of course, my favorite, Black Butler. I smiled a bit as I put the Ciel and Sebastian ones in their place. And to think it was just a few months ago when I saw you two for real.

Ever since I had made my journey into the Black Butler universe a few month back, I couldn't help but smile a little extra every time I encountered the Black Butler characters on my daily basis. (Which was quite often, considering my close ties with the fandom.) The Black Butler fandom had always been like a second home to me—and it had nearly become one when I traveled to its universe for the first time.

It all started when I got an invitation for a ball at the Phantomhive Manor. At first I thought it as a joke. But when Sebastian showed up at my doorstep and took me on a carriage ride to the ball, I knew it was anything but. I found out that the reason I was invited to the ball because Ciel dreamt about me. He had thought that I was someone sent out to harm him, so he asked Sebastian to track me down. Ciel challenged me in many ways, though I managed to pull through and earn his trust in the end.

Along the way, many surprising things happened. The one that took me aback the most was the fact that Alois had formed a crush on me. Alois, being the bipolar, flamboyant boy he is, was hard to deal with. And when he wanted to become more than just friends with me…well, things became even difficult. But at the same time, it was sort of flattering. Alois certainly earned a special place in my heart.

Then there was the predicament of Sebastian and Claude tasting my blood. Frustrating and disturbing as it was, I managed to avoid falling into their traps. I never thought I'd ever be fought over by the two— though it wasn't as pleasant as one would imagine.

And of course, there were the multiple near-death experiences I went through. Hannah attacked me with a dagger, I was struck from behind and locked on a closet, and Claude nearly crushed me and Alois inside a spider web. Even though the experiences had been so riveting, months later they merely felt like a dream.

As the memory faded, I trudged out of bed and walked down the hallway into the bathroom. I closed the door, and drowsily made my way over to the sink. I paused a moment to look at myself in the mirror. The top of my pajama top was drooping off my shoulder, revealing a bra strap. My wavy brown was a big, tangled mess, and my eyes looked as they were only half open. I also noticed I left my broken heart necklace on. Just seeing everything I'd have to do to fix myself up for the day made me every bit more grateful that I was homeschooled. There's never a need to rush.

I took a deep breath, and splashed cold water on my face. As I dried the water, I caught a pleasant scent in the air. Food?! I sniffed again.Eggs? Cheese? It was definitely some sort of breakfast food. So my mom is cooking this morning…sweet! I began brushing my hair, trying to make myself look a bit more presentable. Seems I wasn't going to be the only one up this morning.

I left the bathroom and walked into the hall. Normally I was the first one up on weekdays, so it surprised me my mom would start cooking something so early—especially since none of my siblings were up yet. I rubbed my eyes and stepped into the kitchen. ''Hey mom, I didn't know you were going to cook this morning."

I put my hand on a chair and was just about to pull it out so I could sit down, when I realized my mom wasn't the one cooking. The cook turned towards me, revealing his raven black hair and crimson red eyes.Sebastian! I took a step back, my mouth opening in disbelief.

The demon smirked. "I see you're awake, my lady. My, we have a lot of catching up to do."
