Summary:

It's almost too good to be true when they meet and everything goes according to plan. Sebastian takes Catherine to an old antique shop where she finds a glass rose. Sebastian buys the rose and keeps it safe. Little does Catherine know that her life is in his hands by a single rose, that could shatter at any minute.

Oooh, I'm so excited! I can't believe I finally got this up tonight! I'm so excited.(said that twice :D) I hope you guys like this, because have a seat load full of ideas for this.

I anged a few minor things from the original copy, because it didn't really add up to how I typed out the rest of the chapters. Hope fully you'll still enjoy it.

Ok, so I'll just be quiet and let you read.

I don't own Kuroshitsuji! Enjoy!

A young girl walked gently across the sidewalk. Her brown shoulder-length hair curled upward at the ends. Her bright blue eyes shone in the setting sun. She wore a dark brown leather jacket over her purple shirt. She wore dark blue skinny jeans and black converse. Around her neck were silver dog tags. A blue ribbon was tied around her wrist.

Behind her walked a tall thin man. His hair was raven coloured and his red eyes shone the same way as the girl's eyes. The girl turned a corner and walked into the nearby bakery. She picked out a few red bean sweet rolls and loaf of white bread. She walked to the counter and waited for the owner to come and ring her up. She had little money, and the owner continued to giver her food for free.

"Please, you shouldn't do this for me..." The girl said to the owner.

"Oh, of course! I must. You may not know it, but I know we will become good friends." The owners eyes hid behind sliver hair. His lips curled up into a creepy smile.

"But you've given it to me everyday! I can't accept this."

"Fine. I'll take one dollar; you keep the rest."

"But, the loaf is five dollars! Please take it!"

"You will need it for later. You should save it. Besides, I don't need that money. I have another business as well."

"Oh, well, yes, I know that, but still!"

"hehe~ You should get going. Mommy wouldn't be happy to see you late~ hehehe!"

"Oh, alright. Again, thank you. I hope to see you tomorrow, Undertaker!" As the girl ran, her blue ribbon on her wrist danced lightly in the wind. Nearby a man-no Sebastian Michaelis watched her carefully.

After she was gone, Sebastian walked up to the counter.

"So, following you dead lovely are you?" The Undertaker cackled.

"I suppose so." Sebastian replied.

"How is your young Lord doing? I expected great things from the demon guard dog of the queen."

"He is well. She said she's been here everyday. You also seem to know each other well. Why are you letting her take things for free without paying?"

"Her family is low on funds now. She and her brother work while their mother is ill at home. Since Catherine is so young, she has a hard time getting a job."

"Does she go by the same name here?"

"I believe her family and friends call her Sakura. Her real name is Catherine, but I haven't the foggiest why she calls herself Sakura. Oh, and today is her birthday, in case you were wondering."

"Where can I find her?"

"She should be at the library right now. She will usually stays for an hour on Tuesdays. You should hurry. Oh, and wish her happy birthday for me."

Sebastian nodded and fled the bakery.

Catherine- or Sakura- was sitting on one of the chairs in the library reading a copy of Pride and Prejudice. Sebastian took a random book off of the shelf and walked towards Catherine.

"Is this seat available?" Sebastian asked.

"Heh, please. Of course." Catherine smiled.

"I saw you in the bakery earlier. I see you like red bean sweet rolls."

"Yes, they are my favourite, but they cost so much now a days, I usually only buy them on my birthday or my brother or mother's birthday."

"So who's is it today?"

"Mine, actually."

"Really? Well then, let me treat you to something."

"Like what?"

"Why don't you join me for dinner, I also have somewhere I wish to go with you. It's a lovely place. I think you'll enjoy it."

"Mmm, ok. I have to drop this off at home and visit my mom first, but then we can go. You can accompany me if you wish."

"I'd love that."

"By the way, I'm Sebastian."

"I'm C-Sakura."

They walked in a comfortable silence to her home. They kept a safe distance apart, but just enough where Sebastian's arm would occasionally bush against hers, making her blush.

"Mum, I'm home. Is John here yet?" Catherine called.

"Oh, dear, who is this... fine young man?" Her mother walked out. She was frail and short. She looked similar to Catherine, but with blonde hair.

"Mother, he's just a friend. Where is John?"

"Hmm, I haven't seen his face all day."

"What about father? Have you heard from him lately?"

"Uh, well. Actually we need to talk about that."

"Hmm?" She glances to Sebastian standing still by the door.

"Never mind. Today's your birthday, go have fun! I will call you when John get's home."

"Alright, Mother. I will see you later."

They had eaten at a popular elegant restaurant. It had made Catherine's skin tingle from not being dressed properly. Sebastian had told her not to worry, but that didn't exactly calm her.

After that, Sebastian took her on a walk through the town. they had stopped her at an old antique store. The outside was old and beginning to rust, but the inside was filled with lovely antique figures, music boxes, paintings and much more.

"What do you think?" Sebastian asked.

"It's amazing here!" Catherine gasped.

"I knew you'd like it here." Sebastian smiled. She stood before a row of glass figures. One caught her eye especially. It was a clear glass rose. When the light hit it, it looked like a rainbow glass rose.

"Gah, It's getting late. I need to head home. Thank you for today. We should meet again sometime." Catherine checked her watch.

"Do you need me to walk you home?" Sebastian offered.

"No, I can take a taxi. Thank you again!" She jumped up carefully and kissed him on the cheek gently then waved goodbye. He chuckled at her attept to hide her blush and hid one of his own.

After Catherine left, Sebastian gently picked up the glass rose. It turned to a violent shade of red that fogged the glass. It was the same colour of blood. Sebastian brought it to the counter and paid for it.

Sebastian left the store and held the box the rose was in close to him. "Soon, you will see. Soon, my delicate flower."

So, how was the first chapter? I was smiling the entire time! I loved writing this chapter.

Ok, so this is just a pre-run at this story. I will have lots of editing to do on the other chapters, and I am planning to make this story more cheerful that the one before. So it will take lots of work.

I need as much help with this as possible. I'm planning for this to be a really good fanfic, so I need all the help you can give.

I will post 1 and two so you guys can get the second chapter right away, just because I love you guys so much!

finally, this story will include arcs from the anime and possibly the manga, if I can finish reading them in time. with that in mind, Ithis story will probably end up being much longer than the last with longer chapter too!

So, please R&R and fav/follow! Thanks and stay safe!

(reviews are highly recommended and adored!)
