CHAPTER TWO ISH HERE! It's also Christmas Eve, for those people living under a rock in the isolated snowy Himalayan mountains . xP

Firstly, I'd like to thank all the people that added this story to alerts and favorited it! It's so nice to get so much attention for a fic, because you guuys helped me break a record there ^.^ I thank you so much! But seriously people, REVIEW! Favorites, and alerts are awesome, but reviewing really helps me improve my writing (for other stories anyway, seeing as this one is already written). Also, for those that MUST know, there will be some CielXLizzie in this fic. It needed to happen so things could progress, plus I think it's irresistibly cute! ^.^ So deal with it if you're a hardcore SebastianXCiel fan, because you've gotta let the author indulge a bit, now haven't you?

This chapter, as I said it would be, is set on Christmas Eve (the reason as to why I am posting it today... DUH)... uuummmm yeah, I think that's all you need to know O.o

Disclaimer: I don- Wait... Sebastian come do this disclaimer for me!

Sebastian: Yes, Ma'am.

Me: *Smirk* Thank you!

Sebastain: Chiruda-Sama does not own any of the characters in this work of fiction. She only owns the plot. she also owns the two market stall owners in the first chapter who she forgot to mention.

Me: THANKIEZ *Glomps Sebastian*... now... ^.^' ON WITH THE FESTIVITIES!


When Ciel Phantomhive awoke alone in his large majestic bed on Christmas Eve, he had a strange feeling of loss. It wasn't just that he'd woken up without anyone else in his bed. Because that was normal. If there had been someone there that would have been out of the ordinary. It wasn't that he had awoken before his butler had arrived. It was that when he had gone to sleep he had been with someone. His train of though was interrupted by a light knock on his door.

'Enter.' He said just loud enough for the person on the other side of the door to hear, his voice groggy from just waking up sounded slightly off.

'Young Master. Good morning. Strange to see you awake before I have awoken you.' Sebastian Michaelis said with a smirk.

'Don't mock me.

'My deepest apologise'

'Where did you go?'

'Excuse me, Young Master, I don't quite understand the question.' Sebastian smiled innocently at his Young Master. Despite his butler's words, Ciel did not believe for one second the innocent act being put on by this demon.

'Where. Did. You. Go?' Ciel repeated through gritted teeth. It was to early in the day for these kinds of antics.

'If you are referring to the early hours of this morning, I had to attend to my duties.'

'I asked you to stay...' Ciel practically growled.

'Young Master, I had to prepa-'

'Whatever, fine... Forget I asked...' Grumbling Ciel kicked off the sheets and kneeled up on the thick mattress, right hand out in front of him. 'May I see the newspaper for today?'

'Yes, Young Master' replied Sebastian, handing Ciel the paper. Ciel smoothed it out on the bed in front of him, looking at the headline he snorted. Some tripe about Christmas. He quickly leafed through the rest of the paper and seeing nothing that interested him he threw it aside.

'Young Master, today I have taken the liberty to prepare hot chocolate instead of tea for you this morning. As I believe it will be more pleasing in this incredibly cold season.'

'Hmm...' Was all Ciel could think to say.

'Sausages, toast and eggs have been prepared for your breakfast this morning. As an accompaniment I have prepared porridge with cream and sugar.'

'Porridge again, Sebastian? Are you perhaps running out of ideas?'

'Certainly not. Lady Elizabeth requested it this morning.'

'Ugh, she's up already?' Ciel said hanging his head.

'Actually, Young Master, you are the only one still in bed.'

'I'M WHAT? DO YOU WANT AUNT FRANCES TO KILL ME?'... Here the term speak of the devil, and he will cometh, is incredibly appropriate, as Sebastian placed a spoonful of light cream on top of the steaming hot chocolate the door burst open and Marchioness Frances Middleford stood in the doorway. She quickly located Ciel, and strode forward, grabbed him by the upper arm, and dragged him out of the room.

'Aunt Frances, I-I'm not dressed yet!'

'Well that's your own fault for sleeping in so long! I severely hope you do not sleep in that late every morning. I don't want my little girl marrying a lazy pig!'

'Of course I don't, Aunt! But if you would please just allow me to ge-' Ciel stopped mid sentence as his Aunt had just kicked open the dining room doors, leaving him in full view of everyone inside. Which just so happened - unfortunately for Ciel - to be all the residents and guests of the household, minus Sebastian. 'I, um... I... Eehhhh' Ciel turned and tried to make a run for it, but the back of his shirt was seized, and he was pulled back into the unwelcome clutches of his Aunt.

'Take your seat... Earl.' Frances said with a terrifying amount of menace in her voice. Ciel had no choice but to do as she said. It was either that or be further humiliated later on. He took his seat and consequently made Lizzie turn a most festive shade of holy berry red, turning her face away she coughed gently into her hand, and eyes wide in horror Ciel immediately clamped his legs together and turned an even dark shade of red than his fiancé.


After the shameful events of breakfast Frances allowed Ciel to go and get dressed, something he very much appreciated, as he was sick of the churning sensation in his stomach that was due to his being extremely self conscious, and half naked.

When he exited his bedroom for the second time that morning he was wearing thick stockings under a pair of green just bellow the knee shorts, black lace up boots, a vest under his usual shirt, a waist coat, a jacket, a cloak, mittens a scarf and of course his eye patch. At breakfast Lizzie had asked his he wanted to go for a walk in the snow with her, and he had gladly accepted. Even though at this time of year he was more likely to catch a cold, and then by default have his asthma returned to him, he always found a certain otherwise unattainable peace in the snow.

In the country it covered everything like a thick blanket, silencing animals, birds, and even the wind. He found he was able to think a lot better in the snow. So he was in for a shock when descending the small flight of stairs out of the front of his mansion he was pelted with snow balls at high speed.

'Aggghhh! Lizzie! What are you doing?' He yelled at the smug looking girl, as he barely avoided falling down the steps.

'We're playing Ciel! Remember when we used to do it all the time?'

'Of course I remember, but you could have at least let me reach the bottom of the stairs first.'

'Oh you're no fun! Retaliate then!' She giggled, sticking her tongue out. Ciel took it as a challenge, promptly hitting her square in the face with a snowball.

'Agh!'

'I though you told me to retaliate?'

'I did, but not at my face! What has it ever done to you?' she asked pouting and brushing the snow from her fringe.

'Nothing. It just presents a nice big target.'

'Are you, my fiancé, telling me that my face is fat?' Lizzie sniffled pathetically and looked down.

'No.'

'GOOD!' She yelled grinning evilly and hurling a concealed snowball his way. Ciel quickly dodged behind a tree.

The fun outside continued for another half an hour until they were both called inside for a snack, and a change of clothes. Their previous ones now drenched and already starting to freeze.

Ciel shivered as Sebastian removed his jacket and waistcoat. Even standing in front of the fire it was still freezing.

'I apologise Young Master. I shall go as fast as I can.'

'G-good, 'c-c-cause it's a-a-absolutel-ly f-f-freezing!' His butler bowed slightly and continued removing each item of clothing. Though faster now.

In the end, Ciel even had to remove his underwear. "Soaked to the bone" didn't even cut it, his current naked state was mostly Lizzie's fault. She'd kept tripping him up and he'd kept falling for it and landing - mostly face down - in the snow. Whilst Sebastian went to fetch some dry clothes for him, Ciel ran to his bed, and dragged the quilt off of it, and then ran back over to the fire again. He then wrapped it around himself, and sat down in front of the flames, curling up into a still freezing ball of cold.

When Sebastian came back into the room, his first reaction to the ball of quilt with a head in front of the fire, was worry. Was his Young Master sick? This emotion quickly turned to humor though, and Ciel glared at him.

'I apologise for taking so long, Young Master, I shall begin dressing you this instant.' He walked over to the ice cold to the touch boy and knelt down in front of him, laying the clothes on the floor to his right. The side nearest the fire. He reached out and pulled the blanket off of his Young Master's shoulders, causing the boy to blush.

Red eyes met his cerulean one and in a second Ciel understood what was going to happen. He closed his cerulean eyes and relaxed, within seconds he felt his butlers minty breath on his nose, and then strong lips were crushing down on his own, and he didn't fight it. He let them overpower his own, and then he felt a tongue slide along his bottom lip, and he was tipped backwards so he was laying under Sebastian, he felt Sebastian's body re-adjust, and relax to curve around his own. He parted them and let that welcome guest enter his mouth. Sebastian's tongue tapped the end of his own and then slid along it, then underneath and Ciel moaned, and decided to give the guest tongue a little competition. He dodged out of the way and then he found Sebastian's tongue again and poked it tentatively with his own. After that a small battle commenced, and Ciel found himself gasping for air.

He pushed Sebastian off of him slightly to breath, but then he seized his butlers tie, and pulled him down towards him again. His hand slid up from the tie over Sebastian's shoulders and tangled themselves in his butlers silky black locks.

Sebastian was incredibly shocked by his Young Master's reaction to the kiss. He had been expecting to be slapped and pushed away. Not pulled closer. What shocked him most though, we the fact his Young Master had let him take control. Though, it probably had something to do with the fact it was the boys first kiss, and he was lost as to what to do...

'Young Master,' another crushing of lips, 'you should probably go and-' another wrestle of tongues, 'return to your guests.'

'Yes... I-' a tap of the tongue, 'really should...'

Sebastian pulled away, and returned to his kneeling position from before.

'Then, Young Master, may I dress you?' Sebastian's professional posture, and mannerisms had returned the second he had no longer been touching Ciel... Ciel sat up brushing his hair out of his eyes, and nodded.


'Ciel. You took so long! We were about to send out a search part. Hey, what's up with your lips?' Lizzie questioned as Ciel walked into the parlor.

'M-my lips?' Now Ciel thought about it, his lips felt... Swollen. 'Nothing's up with my lips.' He lied

'But they're swollen?'

'No they're not.'

'Then why are you blushing?'

'I'm not blushing.'

'Yes you are. Look!' Lizzie ran over and taking Ciel by the hand led him to the mantle piece which had a large gilt framed mirror hanging above it. Lizzie was correct, of course. His lips were swollen, and he was blushing.

'I see...'

'So why are they like that then?'

'How should I know? Where are your parents?'

'But they're your li- Oh whatever. They went to play billiards. Neither of the them were hungry so they though they'd give us some space to have our snack in peace.'

'Ah, I see. I've never asked before. Is Aunt Frances good at billiards?'

'Yes, I've seem Mother play. She's amazing' Lizzie answered with a clear amount of awe in her voice.

'Hmm, I'll have to play against her sometime.'

'I'll secretly be cheering for you, Ciel'

'Thank you.'

There was a knock on the door, and it opened slowly. Meylene poked her head inside the room.

'Young Master! There's a letter for you!' She thrust her arm through the door and in her hand was a red envelope.

'Give it here then.' Ciel commanded and Meylene opened the door the rest of the way and ran inside. She handed the letter to him and curtsied clumsily.

'What is it, Ciel?' Lizzie inquired, peering at the letter over Ciel's arm.

"Little Ciel! I believe these are a tradition in your country. Christmas cards, right? I thought I'd send one to you just to see what it was like! You're house in London is still being well taken care of! Thank you very much for lending it to me and Agni! We're enjoying it very much! Merry Christmas Little Ciel!"

'It's a Christmas card from Soma.'

'Soma...?'

'Yes, that moron Prince.'

'OH HIM! I really like him!'

'One of the few...'

'I don't think that's quite right' Lizzie said, taking a seat on one of the couches in the room. 'Sebastian, Meylene, Bardroy, Finnian and Tanaka seem to like him very much. And Miss Nina got talking to him about Indian fashion... Actually, Ciel, I think you are the only one who doesn't like him.'

'Is that so... Well, that doesn't matter anyway, what matters is that he's a complete moron and he shouldn't be allowed out in public. Let alone near my house...'

'That's a little harsh' Lizzie said, giggling.

'I don't think so, but I suppose everyone has a right to their own opinions.' Ciel looked over to the door again, 'Meylene, my first question to you is, what are you still doing here?-'

'Oh, I'm sorry Young Master! I'll go righ-'

'Wait!...' Ciel sighed, why must he be encumbered with such useless servants, 'My second question is, where is our tea? I personally am quite thirsty after my and-... After the snowball fight...'

'I'll go and see now, Young Master.'

'No need. Here it is.' Sebastian entered the room, bearing a tray on which rested two cups of hot chocolate, and slice of stollen bread each for Ciel and Lizzie. Sebastian set the cups down on the small table near the fire then placed the plates of stollen down.

'You're snack is served, Young Master, Lady Elizabeth. I hope you find it to your liking.' Sebastian bowed to the two.


'Sebastian? What's this bread stuff? It's sooooo good!'

'Thank you Lady Elizabeth. It is called Stollen. It is a German sweet bread usually eaten in the Winter, drawing up to the Christmas period. What makes it sweet are the raisins and marzipan in the center.'

'I see. And, did you make it?'

'I did.'

'It's so nice! You're such a good cook Sebastian!'

'I am unworthy of your praise, Lady Elizabeth. But I thank you for it.'

'Oh, shush! You are worthy off it!'

'I think I shall have to agree with Lizzie there Sebastian.' Ciel said. Joining in the conversation, 'You are very much worthy of our praise.'

'Why the sudden change in attitude, Young Master?'

'Never you mind...' Ciel looked side long at his butler. Did he suddenly think he had more room to breath now that they had... Kissed? Because, unfortunately for Sebastian, that was not, going to happen.

'I humbly apologise, Young Master. I spoke out of line.'

'Hmm...' Just then there was a loud crash from the direction of the main lounge and a scream of "MEYLENE!". The heads of all occupants of the room whirled to the direction of the ruckus.

'Sebastian, go and check if everything is alright.'

'Yes, my Lord.' Sebastian quickly bowed then straightened up and walked briskly towards the door.


'What's going on in here?' Sebastian asked, striding into the main lounge. The two fireplaces were lit, and there was a lot of holly atop the mantle pieces. The giant Christmas tree was standing in front of the windows, and there were strings of Christmas cards hanging from hooks on either side of the windows, on the windows either side of the tree.

'Mr. Sebastian. I- we, well... Ugh' Finnian gave up trying to explain, and just pointed towards the big doors at the other end of the lounge. Meylene was lying in a heap on the floor at the foot of them, covered in Christmas decorations, an empty box lying a little way away, and standing in the doors were Prince Soma and his butler Agni.

'Ah, that's what happened...'

'Mr. Sebastian!' Agni said, stepping around Meylene and half running the length of the room, 'It's so good to see you again!' The next think that happened shocked Sebastian a great deal. Agni embraced him. Sebastian stood their awkwardly, not moving a muscle until Agni let go of him.

'Uhh, I should really go and help Meylene, up...' Sebastian muttered.

'No need, I think Prince Soma has already.' True enough, Soma was now helping Meylene pick up all the decorations. Though he wasn't doing very well as he was examining each one closely and asking her several questions before putting each item in the box.

'And what's this one?' Soma asked picking up a bauble.

'That's a bauble. It goes on the tree.'

'You put these strange little balls on trees? Aren't they for throwing?'

'Oh not at all! They'd brake if you weren't to careful with them, Prince Soma.'

'Oh I see!' He then gently places the bauble in the box and began studying something else.

'So it would seem.' Sebastian replied, finally after watching Soma's curiosity get the better of him for a very long time.

Sebastian led Agni and Soma to the parlor, after Soma's request to see Ciel, because he had come as a Christmas gift for him.

'LITTLE CIEL!' Soma shouted, pushing past Sebastian, who was half way through explaining to Ciel that Soma and Agni had come to spend Christmas with them as well. And that Soma had brought his mere presence as a gift.

'Agghh!' Ciel had been tackled of his chair and was now being hugged on the floor by Soma. 'Ow?' He said weakly.

'Prince Soma!' Lizzie chirped, a little bit of worry lacing her voice, though it mostly contained laughter.

'Oh! It's my little sister-in-law as well! How're you Lizzie?'

'I'm great, but um... You're kind of squashing my fiancé' Lizzie pointed at the slowly turning a pale shade of purple Ciel, and Soma rolled off of the small boy at once.

'Oh Little Ciel! I'm so sorry!' Soma said picking himself up off of the floor. Ciel coughed and sat up shakily.

'You should be...' He coughed again, and Sebastian came over.

'Young Master, are you alright?'

'AHH! I DIDN'T KILL HIM DID I MR. SEBASTIAN?' Soma yelled aghast with himself.

'No, I don't think you did quite that much damage, Prince Soma.' Sebastian said, helping his Young Master to a chair.

'Really? Phew... I was so worried' Soma babbled on, and no one really listened apart from Agni, who joined in the conversation every now and then with an enthusiastic remark of some sort.


At around two in the after noon there was a knock at the traders entrance. Much to Lizzie's pleasure it was Nina Hopkins with their Christmas clothes.

'I don't usually make trips on Christmas Eve.' she said to Lizzie as she helped her into her dress. They were standing in Lizzie's bedroom, in front of a large floor length mirror in the corner. 'But I decided you two were a special case. Plus, I did make these outfits especially for today and tomorrow. So, Lizzie. You have this dress, and that other special outfit that you asked for.'

'That's great! I can't wait to see the other one!' The dress Lizzie was wearing was a red, floor length silk dress, with a large bustle at the back, over which the material was synched up, creating a complicated ruffled effect. It then fell straight at the front, making it look very sophisticated, and smart, it had a small train at the back which fell from the bustle. The bodice laced up at the back in a corseted fashion. The neckline fell in a graceful 'V' showing off Lizzie's newly developed cleavage. Lizzie's shoulders were covered neatly by off white cap sleeves with a red hem. They seemed to almost grow from two red bends sitting on the outer ends of her collar bones. All down one the right side of the dress were little snow flakes embroidered in light grey, silver, and white.

'Miss Nina, I love this so much. Thank you! It's amazing!'

'You're welcome Sweetie! It was a pleasure to make! And I'm so glad we can finally show off your darling cleavage!'

'Uhh... Thanks?'

'Would you like to see the other outfit?'

'Ooh! Yes please!' Lizzie practically screamed as Nina brought it out of the trunk she was using to transport everything.

'Here it is then.'

'OH MY! That is absolutely gorgeous! And soooo cute! And... And... Oh wow! I can't believe it's mine! KYAAAAA!'

Ciel awaited his turn - to have his new clothes fitted - in the billiards room, talking business with Marquis. Agni and Soma were being partially interrogated by Frances, and Ciel was rather secretly enjoying Soma's discomfort. Where Soma came from, women were not usually this scary... Hell, here in England they weren't usually this scary either...

After about forty five minutes, there was a rap on the door, and Sebastian entered, bowed to the occupants of the room in general then turned to Ciel.

'Miss Nina would like to see you now, Young Master'. Ciel stood up and followed his butler out of the room.

'I have a horrible feeling Lizzie has something... Humiliating and terrible up her sleeve...'

'You know, Young Master, I think I know what you mean.'

'Well, I suppose we'll both just have to hope we're wrong.' Sebastian opened the door for Ciel, then followed him inside. At the floor next to his wardrobe was a large trunk, that he guessed Nina was transporting the new clothes in. When she threw it open and lifted out a dark, almost blood red waistcoat, and shorts, with a huge black bustle made from layers and layers of material, he was proven correct.

'Now, Earl, I didn't want this being just any bog standard shirt, so, I tried to give it a more feminine cut on the torso. The sleeves are extra long as well. I thought that having long, loose, trailing cuffs on them would be a nice original little touch.

'I'm not sure why you are telling me this...' Ciel muttered.

'What was that?' Nina glared at the Earl slightly.

'Oh, nothing! Nothing at all!'

Nina stood back to admire her work. The outfit she had designed did look splendid on the boy - if she did say so herself - just as she'd hoped it would. Ciel's shirt was of an off white colour, which went rather well, with the red and lighter red stripped waistcoat, giving an aged, traditional effect. At his neck was a large black bow, which slightly spilled out over the waistcoat. The dark red shorts were bellow the knee, and had a silver button emblazoned with two holly leaves, and a cluster of berries. On the back, falling elegant, yet heavy down to the floor, was a black pin stripped bustle. Protecting Ciel's legs against the cold were some black stockings, and on his feet were his plain black boots, except Nina had made some red boot covers, with black buttons, of the same shade as the shorts.

'Well, what do you think?' She asked, standing back, and looking Ciel over.

'It is a rather fine creation, Miss Nina.' Ciel said, gazing at the, slightly inconvenient, but powerful feeling bustle.

'Thank you!' Nina said, looking a little smug.


Once the teenagers were finished getting changed everyone gathered in the finally decorated Lounge, to participate in decorating the tree.

'CIEL! YOU LOOK SO CUTE!' Lizzie screamed as Ciel reached the top of the stairs. They were standing in the entrance hall, and Lizzie was standing by the doors to the main lounge, waiting for Ciel so they could enter together. She had her long blonde hair set in sausage curls, and had half of it pulled back into a small ponytail, that rested atop the rest of her hair, fastened by a black satin ribbon. She was wearing her dress from before, but with elbow length black gloves this time, and a pendant necklace. She had rouged her cheeks slightly to give her pale face a little colour. Ciel was rather surprised by the beauty of his fiancé. Used to seeing her hair in two large bunches on either side of her head he was taken aback by the modest, yet lovely way it cascaded down her back. She also never wore anything this revealing, or tight around the chest area. And it was a shock to see that she had acquired a bosom.

'Lizzie... You look... Lovely...' Ciel said quietly as he reached her side. He may no longer harbor any feelings of love in the respect of a relationship for the girl, but she was still his cousin, and one of is best friends. A light pink flush crept up Lizzie neck, but when it just reached her cheeks she had already calmed it.

'Thank you, Ciel.'

'Shall we go in then?' Ciel asked, and when Lizzie nodded, Sebastian opened the doors, with a little help from Agni, seeing as they were double.

Soma 'ooh'-ed as the couple entered the room, and Marquis could only gaze at his daughter as if he was just meeting her again for the first time in years. Frances walked over to the youngsters, and looked sternly down at Ciel, who thought he was going to be reprimanded by his aunt yet again, but then her expression softened into one of her rare smiles and she just placed her hand on his shoulder and nodded before turning away from them and walking back towards her husband.


'Looks like your staff really pulled all the stops for this one Earl.' Frances commended as she took a seat on one of the love seats next to the fire.

'I suppose they did, in the end.'

'But, it wouldn't be half as amazing if Mr. Sebastian hadn't been directing them the entire time!' Soma said gleefully.

'How can you be sure of that?' Marquis asked, a vague curiosity in his voice.

'Earlier I accidentally bumped into Meylene, she feel and the box of decorations she was holding flew out of her hands. Whilst I was helping her pick them up, and learning a little more about Christmas, she told me that Sebastian had drawn up clear plans for the entire lounge, entrance hall, and dining room. And I'm sure of it because Mr. Sebastian is amazing at anything he does!'

'Really? Sebastian, that is quite impressive!'

'Why thank you Lord Marquis, Prince Soma.' Sebastian accepted the compliment, with a bow. 'But what kind of butler to the Phantomhive name would I be if I could not plan something as simple as a few Christmas decorations.'

'Well said!' Marquis complimented again, and Ciel began to wonder if all that man ever did was compliment people...


'Ciel? Where should be put this last bauble?' Lizzie asked, holding up a clear glass bauble in front of her face and flicking it with her gloved hand so that it span.

'How about there?' Ciel suggested, point at a spot about a foot and a half above his own head hight. The tree had been a group effort, each member of the family - and Soma - taking turns to hang a decoration in one place or another, though admittedly, Marquis and Frances had left, Ciel, Lizzie and Soma to do most of it, seeing as they seemed to be having the most fun. They just sat, and enjoyed a glass of sherry each whilst the 'youngsters' as they put it did all the hard work for them.

'I-I can't quite reach.' Lizzie complained stretching as far as she dared without toppling onto the tree. Ciel looked at Lizzie, then at Sebastian, who nodded very slightly, and Ciel stepped behind Lizzie, and placing his hands on her waist gently lifted her up a little.

She started when he first put his hands there, blushing again, but when he picked her up, she giggled, and understanding he couldn't hold it for long quickly hung the last decoration before the star. Sebastian brought over a wooden step ladder so the top of the tree could actually be accessed, and Ciel turned to Lizzie.

'Would you like to put the star on?'

'Can I? Are you sure?'

'Of course'

'You're so kind!' Lizzie walked over to the step ladder, and with Sebastian standing by incase she fell, and with Ciel holding her hand to steady her slightly, she climbed the ladder, and balancing on tips toes, places the star on the top. But just as she got it on she lost her balance, and so she wouldn't damage the tree she threw her weight backwards.

'Lizzie!' Frances shouted standing up and beginning to run over, but Sebastian was faster, and he stepped behind and caught the falling girl bridal style. Quickly setting her on her feet again.

'T-thank you!' Lizzie said, as she grabbed the step ladder for support.

'May I help you to your seat, Lady Elizabeth?'

'N-no... I think I'll be okay, thank you though...'

'Of course.' Ciel watched his butler bow, and back away to stand over by the doors, out of the way again, with the other servants who had also been watching this tree decorating. Kept silent by Sebastian.

Once Lizzie had calmed down again after her tumble, each of them lit a candle and places it in one of holders, this time though, the servants were allowed to join in as well.

'Oh it looks so beautiful!' Soma said, as he sat down in an armchair admiring the tree once Sebastian and Agni had finished lighting the other candles.

'Yes I suppose it does...' Ciel agreed, though no one noticed that he wasn't looking at the tree.


Whoa, looks like I put a bit more CielXLizzie in here than I intended O.o. It's a side effect of liking Lizzie's character, I'm afraid. But did you like that steamy kiss scene? I did my best on it! As I'm still a TOTAL newbie at writing stuff like that. I would appreciate it if you guys gave me some feedback on how this is going, pwease *pout*? Because I really have no idea what you people think ... *pout*. Which really sucks when I'm writing for you guys! (. And so I can make Sebastian and Ciel make out .). I know it takes a little longer to review in slight detail, but I read all my reviews, and it will help things improve!

SO! REVIEW AND YOU SHALL HAVE PASTRIES AND THE LIKE, BAKED BY SEBAS-CHAN HERE! *Points to Sebastian*

REEEEVIIIIEEEWWW! (And favorite and alert, those make a good side dish! XD)

BYEZ!
