*crickets chirping in backround*
Well, anywayyy, if you did, review and tell me if you like this one better or if I should change it back to the old one. Plz? So this is kind of a more dramatic, and less humorous chapter, but it's still good! (I think…) Anyway the only way I'll know if it's good or not is if you press that gorgeous link at the bottom of the page titled "Review This Chapter" and let me know what you thought of this chapter and/or if you have any suggestions for upcoming chapters! Also, critiques are highly welcome! Don't be afraid to say "Kylee, this chapter just plain sucked," that is, like, amazing , and I love any kind of feedback! Well…. imma finna stop with this annoyingly-long author's note, and let you read the story! Ciao!
~Enjoy!~
~Kylee's POV~
I awoke in a bed much more comfortable than my own and sunlight streaming in through the window to my right. I didn't remember how I got here, and didn't care. I would've just snuggled back into the covers if not for the black figure standing in the doorway.
"Are you going to rape me?" I questioned quite stupidly.
"No," Sebastian chuckled. "…although you did say you wouldn't mind," he mused.
"Well, now I do mind. And can you tell me how I ended up here?"
"You and the Young Master were sharing an intimate moment, and you both fell asleep."
"WHAT? An intimate moment?" What the hell had I been on?
"No, not that kind of intimate. By intimate, I mean, close? You were sharing about your lives and were in each other's arms."
"Oh, okay." That I remember.
"Yes, and I am here to tell you that breakfast will be ready in a few minutes, and I would like you to get dressed."
Shit. "Breakfast?" I asked worriedly. "I really have to go, my parents will be upset, I've been gone all night, plus I need to get ready for school!"
Sebastian stared, unfazed. "I called your house and your answering machine said that your parents would be in Bora Bora all weekend. And have you forgotten, Miss Kylee? Today is Saturday."
"Oh." I racked my brain for more excuses, hopefully one that Sebastian didn't have an answer for. "Putting aside the creepy fact that you know my phone number, I have karate this morning, at ten' o'clock. I really must be going." I nearly slapped myself in the face. Karate? Really? I had never done karate in my life.
"Miss Kylee, if I may be so brave," he answered. "But I don't believe you have ever done karate in your life."
Damn. He had caught me in my lie.
"Now, please get dressed and join us downstairs when you are ready." Sebastian turned to leave.
I quickly looked down and realized, to my horror, that I was wearing an old fashioned night gown. "Wait, Sebastian!" I called. "How did I get into these clothes? Did you put them on me?"
"I am simply one hell of a butler." He replied, not really answering my question. "But I assure you I didn't look," he added and flashed me a grin. Before I could stop him, he was gone and out the door.
Like hell you didn't look, you sneaky bastard. And I can't believe he expected me to have breakfast with my archrival! Maybe if I got dressed quickly enough, I could be out the door and a good distance away from the house before anyone noticed.
I noticed my clothes were folded neatly next to the bed and quickly got undressed. I slipped on my gray skinny jeans and light pink off-the-shoulder sweater. I threw my hair up into a messy bun and let my soft brunette bangs hang in my face. Lastly, I tied the laces on my matching pink converse and when I was done, I crept to the side of the doorway. I looked around the corridor and saw that it was clear. I inched along the wall, hiding at every hint of movement in my direction. *Cue mission impossible theme here* I kept looking over my shoulder, paranoid, although I was pretty that with the servants in this house, I would be able to hear them from a looong way coming.
I approached the stairs and let out a sigh of relief. I only had to make it to the bottom, and from there the door was only about twenty feet away. I made my descent and so far the coast was clear. I reached the bottom and it looked like I was going to make it. I started walking towards the door, then started sprinting. It was getting closer. Only a few more feet. I could see sunlight peering in through the cracks in the frame. I could almost put my hand around the doorknob…
I ran face-fist into the black figure. I looked up in terror at the face grinning at me. I tried to run away, but my legs felt like putty. I only got a couple feet before firm gloved hands grabbed my arms. I struggled and squirmed to try to escape, but I was no match for Sebastian.
I suddenly thought of an ingenious idea and kneed Sebastian in the crotch as hard as I could. But nothing happened. Most human men would be keeled over on the floor in pain, but he didn't move a muscle. He didn't seem phased by my action and actually gripped me tighter.
"Maybe you should've taken those karate lessons you mentioned," Sebastian mused.
I only glared at him. "Let me go." I demanded.
"Oh, I'm afraid I can't do that," he chuckled.
"This is kidnapping. Once I get out of here, I'm soooo pressing charges."
"This is nothing of the sort. You came here of your own free will."
"Yah, yesterday! I never intended to stay more than a day, so now you have to let me go. I have homework to get done!"
"Have you not realized that excuses aren't going to work? You're not leaving until the Young Master says so."
"Where is that little fuck anyway? Tell him I need to speak with him right away."
"Oh marvelous, then, I was just going to bring you to him. A growing girl needs to have a good breakfast."
I rolled my eyes at his lame comment. I hadn't grown an inch in over a year. I was pretty sure that 5'4" was as tall as I was ever gonna get.
Sebastian led me to an outdoor patio with a table set for two. Ciel was sitting at one of the seats, with the other one meant for me. When we approached the table I wrenched my arms from Sebastian's grasp and took a seat.
"What is this?" I asked rudely. "Some kind of creepy date?"
"This is nothing of the sort," Ciel responded. "This is what I would call, a business meeting. There are some matters we need to discuss?"
"Like your servant man-handling me? That was uncalled for."
"It was necessary. You tried to escape."
I felt my blood start to boil. "You mean to say that I'm stuck here? And have you realized that your butler doesn't have balls?"
"Such absurd language," the younger boy clucked his tongue. "And my butler is not exactly what we would call human."
"What is he? A fairy?" I was getting fed up with this nonsense.
"A fairy? Really?" Sebastian reacted, offended.
"Well, you're not cool enough to be a badass werewolf or vampire, so fairy was the only option left."
"I am a demon, I'll have you know, miss."
"Woah. You must be one really uncool demon."
I know I had annoyed him from the flustered look on his face. Wow. I had no idea he was just as much fun to annoy as Ciel. This would make school on Monday so much more fun. That is, if I managed to flee this prison by Monday. I had no idea when or if Ciel was letting me go.
"So…bother to tell me what this lame 'meeting' is about?" I inquired, bored, and stabbed at the ham and cheddar omelet on my plate with my fork. I took a giant bite out of it and chewed obnoxiously to bother Ciel.
"This meeting is about…Oh God, do you have any manners?" Ciel said, his face shriveled up in disgust, proving that my tactic had worked. "Anyways…" he continued, "I have a certain matter to discuss, one that you should know full well about."
"What the hell are you talking about, Ciel?" I responded, irritated.
"It's concerning the compact disc you supplied me with yesterday." He said in all seriousness.
"What about it? It should have the footage on it, as promised, and it is the only copy, I swear to it."
"And normal people call it a CD," I added.
"Oh, I don't doubt the fact that it has all the footage, I just don't believe the fact that it is the only footage."
My face went pale with realization. He knew, and now he was just toying with me before he got to the real point.
"I found it very shady of you to come right out and just give up the info, so I had Sebastian search the perimeter of your house. As I had figured, there were two cameras in the spot where I was hiding out, and both would have film of my actions. But on the CD, you had only shown the footage of one of the cameras, meaning that you still had film from the other camera. You were right in saying that all the footage from the camera was on the disc, but you lied in the fact that it wasn't allthe existing footage."
"You manipulated me, Kylee Phillips, and you see, I just can't let you get away with that. Especially since you've wronged me so many times before."
"I had full right to keep the filmage from you," I retorted angrily. "You were stalking me, watching me from my own lawn. I could've gone to the cops, but instead I let you have the footage in exchange for a petty thing like letting me touch your hair. Sorry, I didn't want to hand over all my information for something so minute."
"You still don't realize, Kylee. I am going to get my revenge. How perfect is it that you're right here, in my house? You've practically walked into a trap. And with the size of this estate, it'll take years to find your body."
"W-Wha- What about what you said yesterday?" I asked, losing a bit of my confidence now. I could feel the fear creeping up over my shoulder like a venomous snake.
"You really couldn't tell that I was BS-ing you?" Ciel sneered. "I guess you even more stupid than I credit you for."
"You lied?" I tried to keep up an innocent act to try to stray them hurting me.
"What a twisted little girl you are," Ciel commented. "The world is not kind to anyone. In it exists two types of people: those who steal, and those who are stolen from."
"So you're gonna steal my life?" I questioned in fear.
"No, no," Ciel cackled cruelly. "I only wanted to see the trepidation on your face. But if I ever need to have you join me for breakfast again, I'll just let you know now that it'll be your last. You can leave now."
"You're letting me go?" I queried, surprised. "Just like that?"
"Just like that," Ciel concurred. "But heed my warning, Kylee. You do not fuck with Ciel Phantomhive."
Quite the change from last chapter, eh? And just when you thought Ciel was getting soft, too.. and I cannot stress this enough: pleeeeeeasse review, and you all get some cyber fro-yo! It can be good, bad, anything in between! Just as long as you review, there will be more chapters. K thanks!
