I woke up later to knocking on my door, I sat up sleepily and rubbed my eyes. The knocking got louder and more frantic as the door handle was tried several times, I yawned and got out of bed, before walking over to the door and removing the chair. I quickly stepped back as the door was flung open by Ciel, who then engulfed me in a hug

"Oh God you had me so worried, don`t ever do that to me again."

"Why (Yawn) were you worried? I was only in my room."

"Master, you`ve been in your room, for five hours straight." Sebastian commented

"I was asleep for five hours? In the middle of the day?"

"It seems that way Hadrian, I`m sorry for yelling at you earlier, you didn't deserve that and I apologise." Ciel said, tightening his grip in me slightly, like he was scared to let go. I returned the hug

"It`s alright, you have your own secrets and you have every right to keep them, I shouldn`t pry, you have every right to keep them." He sighed

"Hadrian, you have every right to know my secrets, just not this one, now come on, you still have presents to open." He let me out of the hug and took a hold of my hand

"Just answer me one question."

"Anything."

"Will you be here, by the time I reach sixteen?" he sighed

"I very much doubt it Hadrian, as much as I wish I could be...now come on, the others are dying for you to open your presents." I giggled, making him smile as he lend me out of the room, with Sebastian walking behind us. He led me up to his office, where May-Rin, Baldroy, Finny and Tanaka where all stood, or sat in Tanaka`s case, waiting

"Happy Birthday Master!" the three called

"Ho, ho, ho." Tanaka said, making me giggle. I saw led to the centre of the room, where a chair was placed, and sat down in the chair before a present was set in my lap

"Well go on, open it." Ciel said, I smiled before opening the present to reveal a new sketch book "All the presents kind of match from those guys, you have something different from Sebastian and I." I nodded and opened the next present that was set into my lap, which turned out to be a set of paints and brushes. The next one was a pack of drawing pencils, and the last one was an easel

"Thanks guys, I love them." All four smiled before leaving to continue what they were doing.

"Now for our presents." Ciel stated, pulling out a box and handing it to me, I slowly opened the box to reveal a necklace with a green curled up snake attached to it, I smiled and hugged him

"Thank you, I love it." He hugged me back

"You`re welcome, now it's Sebastian`s turn." We pulled apart and I turned to look at Sebastian who had knelt down so he was on level with us both. He then pulled out a small box and handed me it

"Here Master Hadrian, I hope you like it." I opened the box to reveal a ring with a strange pentagram engraved in pink on a black stone. I heard Ciel gasp slightly, making me look at him, but he just shook his head and smiled

"Thanks Sebastian, it's really nice."

"Here let me put it on for you." He took the ring from me and out of the box before sliding it onto my right middle finger, I felt the ring warm up slightly, before Sebastian stood up and moved away

"Thank you Sebastian."

"My pleasure Master Hadrian, now if you`ll excuse me I need to start preparations for dinner tonight." Ciel and I both nodded and he left the room

"So, do you like all you presents?" I nodded at Ciel

"I do, so what are we going to do now?"

"How about a game of chess?" I nodded and got up from my seat and he took a hold of my hand before he walked out of the room and headed to his office "Oh and before I forget, Madam Red is arriving tomorrow." I sighed 'Looks like I'll be in my room for the next few days'. See Madam Red doesn`t like me all that much, though I have no idea why, so I tend to avoid her as much as possible, she always finds some way to make me look bad.

"Don't look so down Hadrian, you can spend time with her as well." What Ciel doesn`t realise or see is that she doesn't like me

-Time skip-Next morning-

I woke up to knocking on my bedroom door, I slowly sat up and yawned, before rubbing my eyes

"Come in." The door opened to reveal Sebastian with a slightly sad look on his face "What`s wrong Sebastian?"

"Madam Red has demanded your presence, I came to help you get ready." I sighed

"Alright." He nodded and walked into the bathroom, before I heard water running. Sebastian knew how Madam Red treated me and didn`t like it, he tried to keep me away from her as much as possible, but when my presence is demanded there isn`t a lot he can do. When the water stopped and Sebastian came back out, I climbed out of bed and walked into the bathroom to get cleaned up while Sebastian fetched me some clothes. When I was finished and dressed he helped me put my shoes on before helping me with my jewellery.

"What does Ciel think you are doing?" I asked as Sebastian brushed my hair out

"He thinks I`m fetching tea, and making sure you get to the study alright." I sighed

"He still doesn`t realise does he?"

"I`m afraid not Master Hadrian, I have tried to show him her true colours towards you but he still doesn`t see, now I`m afraid if we don`t leave now, they'll send Grell after us, let's not have anything else in the Manor destroyed yes?" I giggled and nodded as he stood up and helped me to my feet as I was sat on the floor between his legs as he was sat on the bed brushing my hair, because I could never get it tame like Sebastian could. We left the room and collected the trolley before heading to the study

"Do I have to go in?" I asked when we got to the door

"Unfortunately Master Hadrian." He raised his hand to knock

"Can`t you say I ran away?"

"No, the Young Master would worry, then you would get told off, I will not allow that, Master Hadrian I know the Young Master doesn`t see, but I do and I will always be there for you, understand?" I nodded

"I understand, doesn`t mean I like it though." He chuckled a little bit before knocking on the door
