All I want is to be perfect

Hi! I didn't think that I would get this many readers for my fanfic! Thanks to everyone who has read this! There will be approximately nine chapters in this story, and yes, Sebastian will be in this fanfic, just not until a few more chapters
Disclaimer: I know I forgot to say this for chapter 1, but I do not own any of the characters in this fanfiction; Rachel, Vincent, Tanaka, Ciel, Miss. Nina, and later Sebastian. The only character I own at the current moment is the old lady.
Ciel
I was shaken awake by my new mother when we arrived at their house...I mean, mansion. Their house was huge; it was almost the same size as the one I used to live in before I became an orphan! I had never expected to be adopted, let alone be adopted in to a family that was noble.
The carriage driver had collected my bag of clothes for me and was already taking it inside. Dad helped me out of the carriage. When we arrived there was an elderly butler there to greet us, he said that his name was Tanaka. He seemed very nice, hopefully we would get along.
"Welcome home, Ciel" said mom. She was holding my hand now, "Why don't we go up stairs and get you settled in to your room" she smiled. I nodded my head and allowed her to lead me to my room. There were several closed doors going do several hallways. I was probably going to get lost at some point.
"Here we are" dad opened a set of double doors that led in to a rather large bedroom. The walls were a light blue, with dark blue curtains hanging over floor to ceiling windows. A large queen size bed was in the center of the room, there was a door connecting the bedroom to a private bathroom. I stood there in awe, this place was amazing. I finally had a second chance at living in a family...
"Thank-you" I said and I turned and gave my new parents a hug.
Chuckling they replied, "It's the least we can do", that's a strange response... don't people reply to their children saying things like because we love you?
"I love you" I tested; I needed to know if they loved me.
"Yes, now, let's get you cleaned up for dinner" Said Vincent. Well...maybe they were just nervous about saying that they love me? It doesn't look like they have had any other children, so I must be their first.
Vincent
"I love you" stammered ciel as he hugged Rachel. He seems like a...unique child...Thought Vincent. I will consult Rachel on this later; we will have to figure out when we will make our move, and how fast we want this to progress.
"Tanaka" I called. "Please bathe ciel and prepare him for dinner, we are having guests tonight, contact miss. Nina and have her prepare a few outfits for Ciel. Make sure she has one ready by 6:00 this evening"
"Yes, master" Tanaka replied to me. The elderly man turned to Rachel and took Ciel's had and led him to the bathroom to run his bath.
"Rachel," I started "Don't get too attached, and DON'T forget our motive"
"I know...we should still be nice to him for now though, play it up." She replied.
"Fine, what do you think? I think one month should be sufficient, he seems like he will obey us" I stated, " Starting in one week, we will begin the ritual."
Ciel
I followed Tanaka in to the bathroom; he turned on the tap and began adding bubbles to the warm water.
"Young lord, what temperature do you prefer your bath?" Tanaka questioned.
"Hot please" I stated, he turned the tap a little more, then he turned to me, "May I undress you for your bath?"
"uh..I-I..." I stared at him, was I supposed to just let this random old man undress me?! I mean he seemed nice and all, but come on! I barely know him! "No, thank you!" I stated, he looked at me, and smiled, "Then I shall step out until you are undressed for your bath, please be careful when getting in, call me when you are in" and with that Tanaka left. I stood there for a few minutes; one thing I didn't like was being touched, and this old guy was going to bathe me...last time I checked that required a lot of touching...
I slipped in to the water, it was the perfect temperature, Tanaka really does know what he's doing. I leaned back against the edge of the tub, I then realized my scar was completely visible. Now for sure Tanaka will tell my parents something and make the disown me. My thoughts were interrupted when Tanaka knocked on the door, "Is everything alright young master? May I come in?" I sighed, Here goes nothing, "Yes".
-twenty minutes later-
Tanaka didn't say anything about the mark on my back, he actually ignored it. I hope that if he had seen it he wouldn't tell mom or dad.
Sebastian
I sat in the dark corner of the room, invisible to all humans of the household. \
"Intersting..." I watched as the young boy...Ciel...stepped out of the bathroom as Tanaka followed behind him.
"What exactly are they planning to do this time?" I muttered. This was going to be a tough one.
Ciel- Dinner time
"young master, please go down to the dining hall within the next 15 minutes" Tanaka said. With a smile he turned and left.
I hadn't realized how hungry I had been until Tanaka actually brought up dinner. I guess all of my nerves had prevented me from feeling anything except fear. I sat on my bed for a minute taking in my room; the dark red floors were impeccably clean and the light blue wall paper wasn't falling off like it had been in my old room at the orphanage. I can't believe that I had actually been adopted. I got up and started towards the door when I felt something behind me. I could've sworn I heard someone say, "interesting...". Probably my mind playing tricks on me. With that I walked out of my room and went to the dining hall.
-10 minutes later-
"Ciel! Your seat is over there!" My mom called and pointed to the seat right next to her. The dining hall was marvellous. The ceiling was at least 30 feet high and the dining table was at least 15 feet long itself! The table was covered with food and all of the servants were waiting to serve us.
"In honour of you joining our family, we are pleased to have a feast; all for you my dearest son" Dad said. I felt so loved, unlike any other moment in my life. I can't remember anything about when I was a child. All I remember was having a mark burnt in to my back and always trying to cover it up.
Tanaka pulled the chair out for me and I smiled at him, "Thank-you", as I sat. My parents called over the servants and they started to serve the food. They put in front of me a huge plate filled to the brim with food. There was no way I was going to be able to eat all of that!
"To our newest son" mom stated as she held out her glass. We clinked out glasses together and began to eat.
-an hour later-
I awoke to the rhythmic rising and falling of someone breathing. I looked up to see dad carrying me up the stairs to me room, Tanaka following behind him. I obviously passed out after I finished eating...I haven't eaten that much since I first arrived at the orphanage. I felt my eye lids grow heavy and I didn't fight my eyelids when they fell. I let sleep take me.
Rachel
"Ciel will fall asleep after his meal. Once he falls asleep, I want you to excuse yourself from the table and go to the basement and prepare all of the equipment, we may be able to begin the...process...within the next few days. We will not need a week" my beloved husband turned to me.
Just as my Vincent predicted ciel passed out on the table. He promptly excused himself and Tanaka and took Ciel up to his bedroom. I quickly went down the basement and found myself regretting what we were planning to do. I suppose that there's no going back now though.
To be continued...
IM SOOOOOO SORRY! I DIDN'T UPDATE IN SO LONG I APOLOGIZE. I MEANT TO UPDATE BUT APPARENTLY PEOPLE CLEARLY DON'T KNOW HOW TO KEEP THEIR WORD TO THEIR PLANS! One minute they are supposed to come over and you spend the whole day cleaning the house and finishing your run for the day (I have to run everyday...it's competitive) then the next their like, "oh, sorry I can't come anymore, I procrastinated too much and I have a million gajillion projects due on Monday!" Sometimes I just want to flip my desk.
Anyways, now that I'm done ranting, I will try my best to post more chapters sooner! All of my teachers haven't been giving out a lot of homework or projects so I have a bit of spare time on my hands currently. Thanks for all of the follows and the favourites! :D Sorry that this chapter wasn't very interesting, I'll try to make the next one more interesting! I promise
Please rate and review!
