Day 20
Note to self : be more frequent in writing entries.
So now for the update. Sports day just got over a few hours ago. My faction or house or whatever won. Also Elisabeth and her family came just one hour before my sports day. So I was just generally lazing about, seeing as how I would have to march in a few hours when the doorbell rang. My dad got it. It was the Midfords. Edward had grown so tall. I feel like a dwarf(excuse the exaggeration, but when you are 157cm and someone else is like what 169cm you are bound to feel short!) he had spiked his hair and was wearing a shirt with a flaming skull. Flaming skull? All my skeleton shirts are glow in the dark so I could scare people. Aunt Francis and Uncle Alexis were the same. But Elisabeth, my god! Gone was the girl who used to cry and fuss and wear pink as if her life depended on it. Now before me that very same girl who wore only party frocks was wearing a ripped shirt saying curiosity killed the cat (Maybe she's into Emily the Strange?) a black mini skirt and sneakers. So when my parents were talking with Uncle and Aunty about how Edward left military school I walked up to Lizzy and asked her, "Who are you and what have you done with Elisabeth?" She looked at me as if I was from another planet. "Excuse me? I should be asking you the same. Who are you and what happened to Ciel, the guy who USED to be my BEST FRIEND and then moved towns and did not even bother to keep in touch except when our parents met up. But don't worry I forgive you I know you hate communicating through a phone." All right, so we switched towns and I kind of forgot about her. I was seven all right cut me some slack! I hate talking on phones as well, so now that makes me the bad guy? "Well you know that I um hate to talk long distance so..." "Yeah I know so no hard feelings?" she asked. So there was a little bit of the old Lizzy left in her, I now have some hope she won't beat me up, seeing as she fences and all. "No hard feelings." I said and she hugged me. At that moment Edward rushed in and said "Phantomhive! Get your hands off of my baby sister!" Okay so Edward had not changed much. Ever since that one incident when Elisabeth and I were six when our parents said it would be so funny if we were engaged Edward started hating me. Really, I would barf if Lizzy and I were engaged; it would way too awkward and weird. *Insert shudder here*. So anyway I calmly said I do not like Lizzy that way. Aunt Francis then called him so he left but not before saying "I am watching you Phantomhive." So after that incident I had to change into my sports uniform seeing as it was still sports day. My dad dropped me at school and so I headed to my house the Violet Wolf house or the purple house, whatever you want to call it. I was in the Sapphire Owl house when I first joined but then they swapped me with some new kid. Not that I care I do not posses house spirit. Anyway I had to go to the back where the kindergarten block was where the rest of the house was preparing. I go there and find out that we get to wear purple ribbons on our hands. Yay! What are we five? Seriously RIBBONS?! Then I run into Finian, who by the way is also part of the purple house he was grumbling about the ribbons when this random six grade munchkin comes up to us and starts glaring at us. So I just glare back and he tries to punch me! What the hell! The younger generation should show some respect! I dodged it and twisted his hand; never underestimate the power you obtain from fighiting with your cousins all summer. The kid just ran off. I mean what was the entire point of trying to punch us? Finian then tells me that that kid beat him up for lunch money.
Then of course we had to head out. We got a really motivational speech from our vice captain Cheslock which ended with "Win the marching shield or else..." and a really evil stare. So what did we do? We marched our best. On the way out I saw my mom Lizzy and Aunt Francis watching me, they left right after my march past. Then we head out to our respective house tents and bide our time till six, and the time was three fifteen. In my time in the house tent I finished off one doughnut, four tiny brownies and half a bottle of coke. Then it was time for the closing march past. We were standing in the third lane because we were third for the past three years but now since we came first we were standing in the first lane. So Alois' prophecy that the Red House would beat everyone did not come true. Too bad he wasn't there to witness the defeat of his beloved red house; he was out of town that week.
My mum came and picked me up after that and we went home. So here I am writing until it's time for us to leave. We are going out for dinner tonight. I was horribly teased by Edward and Lizzy for my marching so I started writing in here. Oh well now I guess I got to go.
Later
Okay I just got back and my legs hurt. So where were we...oh yeah dinner. While leaving Lizzy forgot her bag so my mum sent me up with her and we ran into Sebastian. He looked at me strangely and said accusingly, "Ciel! Why didn't you tell me about your girlfriend! Hello there my name is Sebastian, I'm his neighbour." I denied that I was her boyfriend (why everyone thinks that any random guy and girl hanging out are boyfriend-girlfriend is beyond my comprehension) Lizzy giggled and said" Well Sebastian my name is Elisabeth, but do call me Lizzy." Big question why did she giggle? Wasn't she supposed to be a scary fencer? Anyway I had to pull her up to our flat and get her bag. All she said was "Geez why are you in such a hurry?" It was her bag, and did she forget the fact that I was starving after sitting in the sun for so long? Brownies and doughnuts get digested fast in the sun. Edward obviously glared at me because we took so long and I was terribly teased and not to mention humiliated by Aunt Francis' remarks 'That Attempt at Marching' why does she except me to be from some military organisation? She always pushes my hair out of my face, as well. We went to this high rise restaurant that gives you the whole view of the city. I was quietly sitting in my place not doing anything when suddenly SOMEONE starts kicking my legs. I looked to find Lizzy sitting opposite me grinning like a Cheshire cat. No one gets away with kicking Ciel Phantomhive. So I start kicking back and then World War Three begins. It was surprising no one noticed it. She stopped when the food came, good thing too my legs were starting to ache. I got the full scoop on Edward's military school adventure. His mother sent him there. It was okay for a while, until Edward started complaining and finally his father felt pity on him and brought him back home. Apparently they might move here hence they came. Hmm... That would be weird, to be in the same city again. Anyway it's really none of my concern. I guess I'll write tomorrow, my eyes are closing as I write this, so good night...I guess.
I wonder if amnesia journals sleep. I must be going mad to write that, of course books don't sleep they're not even living things! I must be really sleepy.
