'Young Earl's Liking'

The sound of breaking glass echoed through out the mansion, followed by some heated words that shook its walls. Her hands were shaking; whole body trembling with anger. She was fighting for air, tears chocking her. She yelled 'I hate you!' and ran out of the room, the door slamming loudly behind her. He remained silent.

'May I come in, Young Master?' the calm voice inquired from behind the door.

'May,' Was his quiet, yet confident answer.

The pieces of what used to be beautiful tableware were scattered all over the floor, some of them remaining on the table. The young Earl was nonchalantly standing there, without saying a single word. And Sebastian had no need to hear his master speak; he attended to cleaning moments later.

The dinning room was unusually quiet, without Elizabeth being there. Now, the only sound filling the room was the tapping of the fingers against wooden table and Ciel's sigh following shortly after.

'Is the food not to your liking, my Lord?' Sebastian asked softly, yet indifferently.

A few minutes have passed before the Earl spoke 'I told her the truth. Finally,' A sip of wine accompanying his words.

'My Lord?'

Ciel took a deep breath, before finishing his glass with one long sip. 'Pour me another one.' He commanded.

'Sebastian! My glass is empty! I thought I told you to pour me some more wine.' He muttered something indecipherable afterwards, followed by a loud hiccup. 'Aren't you interested to know what I've told her?'

'With all due respect my Lord, but I believe that I am not to inquire on such personal matter.' The black butler said, pouring more of red liquid to his master's wineglass.

'I told her that I don't want to marry her.'

Sebastian raised his eyebrows and there was no need for him to fake surprise, he truly did not anticipate this.

'If I may my Lord, but I truly believe that it is not wise of you to cancel the wedding. You've been engaged to miss Elizabeth since both of you were five, it's a bit late to call it off, isn't it? Especially since the wedding day is fast approaching.' After understanding that there would be no answer from his master, Sebastian continued his line of thought, 'That must've broke Miss Elizabeth's heart.' The demon spoke as if he knew what a broken human heart is; as if he knew how it tore you in two.

Before his master left the dining hall, he spoke again: 'My Lord, is she not to your liking?'

At moments like this, Ciel truly regretted that he had no eyes on the back of his head, because he just knew that the demon was smirking, in attempt to mock him; as if he had no idea who was to the young Earl's liking.
