Hello there! I'm so happy that some people actually read my story and review! I was screaming when I saw the reviews! A little SebasCiel moment is down there!
He saw letters, papers, and newspapers everywhere in the room, in the floor, hanging in the wall, on the desk and even the bed. He was shocked by the look of the room, it was dusty and quite filthy everywhere. Sebastian just stands near Ciel and observe the room. Ciel walked in slowly, he doesn't want to burn anything with the candle he's holding.
"It looks like nobody has been to this room for ages." Ciel said as he keeps walking around the room to search for something interesting.
"Sebastian, hold this candle." Ciel hands over the candle and start picking the letters and papers first. Sebastian is still observing the room while holding the candle like a statue. Then, Ciel walks out the room, holding many letters and papers in his arm.
"Young Master, it looks like that this letters is addressed to the Midfords." Sebastian said as he read one of the letters. Ciel was surprised hearing the name "Midford".
"What's in it?!" Ciel quickly grab the letter from Sebastian's hands and reads it.
-Inside the Midfords carriage-
(Elizabeth's POV)
It's boring just to sit inside the carriage, only looking outside the window. My brother, Edward is sleeping, mom and dad are talking about things that I don't even know and care about. I miss Ciel so much, it's only been an hour since I left him and I really miss him. I wonder what he's doing in the mansion….
"Elizabeth, the trip will be long, go rest okay?"
"Yes mom." I sit back and close my eyes, hoping that I could be there soon.
-Back at the Phantomhive mansion-
Ciel dropped the letter with shock after reading it.
"Young master, what's wrong?" ask Sebastian. He picked the letter and starts to read it.
"This is interesting." said Sebastian with a smile. Ciel opened the other letters and read them.
"It's all the same! Why dad write so many letters if it's all the same?!" Ciel was angry, he can't hold up his emotion. He ran away without saying anything to Sebastian.
"Young master, wait!" Sebastian dropped the letter he was holding and ran after Ciel. Ciel was in his room, trying to calm himself down. Then, Ciel hears someone's knocking.
"Young master, are you okay?" Sebastian asked. No answer was given. Sebastian opened the door and saw Ciel sitting on the floor next to the door. Ciel looked up at Sebastian for a while, then he stare back to the floor.
"Yes, but I still can't believe what is written in those letters…" Ciel eyes shows sadness and tears being hold. He holds his legs even tighter. Sebastian sighed; he smiled and hugs his master. Ciel was surprised; he blushes and just hugs his demon butler back. Ciel was happy he still has Sebastian by his side, even though it's because of the contract. Sebastian stroke Ciel's hair gently. Ciel can't hold his tear any longer, his tears stream down to his pale cheeks. He hugs Sebastian tighter; his butler smiled and keeps hugging his master.
"You can let me go now Sebastian." Ciel said, still blushing. Sebastian let go and giggled a little seeing his young master blushing. Ciel looked at Sebastian and he blushes even more. He turns away to another direction with pink cheeks.
"D-don't think this is going to h-happen again!" Ciel said shyly. Sebastian stands up, he hold Ciel with bride-style up. Ciel just keeps blushing and turns his face away.
"A-anyway, we should be going too." Ciel said. "I'll start preparing." Sebastian said. He walks to the dining room, still holding Ciel. Ciel gives him a confused look.
"You don't want to eat? I guess that's fine." said Sebastian. Ciel looks surprised.
"I want to eat! Just put me down and cook!" Ciel said. Sebastian put Ciel on the dining chair and he began to cook quickly.
-After 10 minutes-
Ciel has finished eating; he went to the study and asks Sebastian to go accompany him.
"The letters almost looks the same but they are difference too." Ciel said while doing his paperwork.
"I don't even know when he/she works here."
"The truth behind the fires….." Ciel said with sadness in his eyes again.
"I guess that's why the Midfords are going outside the town, young master."
"We're going too! You've prepared everything like a told you before right?"
"Yes, I have. I also have prepared a carriage, it's waiting outside."
"Then, we have nothing to be worrying about, except….." Ciel said. "Those three."
"I'm sure Maylene, Finnian, and Bard could protect the mansion without destroying it." Sebastian said with "not-so-sure" voice. Ciel stands up, he walks to Sebastian.
"Then, let's go." Sebastian opened the door and Ciel walks out, followed by Sebastian. They got inside the carriage and went out to meet the Midfords.
Are you wondering what's written in those letters? Hopefully you are! I can update in a few days bcs luckily I don't get too many homework. Next chapter will (hopefully) be released tomorrow or in two days. ^^
