Chapter 9
Right now I was helping Bard with the cooking because he blew up the kitchen and the food again. I wonder how many times I have to tell him, art is not explosion and he has to take his time with cooking. It's like telling Mey-Rin to carry a few plates at a time but too late. As I was helping bard with the kitchen, I was done in 5 minutes. "Whoa you got done that fast but thanks" "It wasn't a problem and your welcome" I left the kitchen doors, just to find something else to do.
My chores were all done and I had nothing to do, I know I am still mad at Ciel for my punishment but I still had to tend to his every need. As I was walking I went by Ciel's study, I took a deep breath and knocked on the door. "Come in" I heard then I open the door "Young master, do you need anything?" I asked "Yes I need to speak with you" he said as he motioned me to come closer to him. I did as I was told and got closer to him "Salina, I apologize about last night I can say that your punishment is over, but you will not leave the manor without my permission" he said and I was now the happiest person here.
Since Ciel didn't need anything I left his study. I walked back to my room since I had nothing to do but before I could do that, my dad stopped me "Salina, can I speak with you for a moment?" "Oh well ok" I said as I followed him into his room. "Salina, where did you get that ring?" my father said as he notice the engagement ring on my finger "Dad, can you keep a secret?" I asked back he looked surprise but he answered "Yes I can keep a secret"
"Well I kind of got engaged" I said, hoping I won't get yelled at but I didn't. "That is wonderful, Salina dear I am proud of you and who is the person you're to marry soon?" my dad looked so eager but it's better than yelling but I am happy about it. "His name is Claude Fantus" once I said that, dad looked surprised again but then that emotion changed quick into a smile.
"Well another reason I want to talk to you about is why have you been lying to me" he said it with a smile but I can tell he was serious. "Dad, I have not been lying to you" I said that because I didn't know what he was talking about but I had a feeling I did lie to him. "Yes you have, the day you said you were going to the Undertaker you said you would be back in one hour but you were gone for more than one hour why have you lied to me?"
"I just thought you wouldn't let me go to see Claude" that is the truth and I know it and my dad knows it as well. "Well dear, why did you think I wouldn't let you go?" "I don't know I just had a feeling you wouldn't". Before my dad could say anything else, there was a knock on the door and I smelled some stench outside. "We can talk about this later right now someone is at the door" my dad said as he left the room.
I followed my dad to the door, just as my dad open the door something red tried to hug him tight but he let it fall to the floor. I noticed that red anywhere it was that reaper, Grell Sutcliff. "Oh Bassy why are you so cold to me" he said it like a girl "Why are you here Grell?" my father said in a tired voice "Well I came to see you, why else would I not be here?"
"Well I didn't expect you to be here" I said, which made him turn to me. "Oh Salina, you look a lot like Bassy" "That is because he is my father" I said. "Well I came here because I heard a certain-look-alike-of Sebas-chan is getting married" wait how did he knew about me and Claude getting married! "How did you know?" I asked a bit of surprise "Well let's just say that I eavesdropped on your conversation with that Claude character". "So what you're saying is that you stalked me when I was with Claude" it was more like a yell when I said that "Well I had nothing else to do besides reaping souls, so I thought that I should follow you around with you lover" I sighed "Why didn't you just stalk my dad instead of me?" it kind of made me a little mad when Grell was stalking me, but somehow his personality amuses me.
"Well I came here to tell you congratulations and I already told the Undertaker and he was happy as well" Grell keeps saying his words like a girl does "Grell the marriage was supposed to be a secret" I said as I sighed "Well to late I already told".
Sooner or later Grell left and Sebastian was relived he was finally gone, at least now we can get our chores done. The day was nearly ending and I was about to retire until dad came to me. "Salina, can I show you something?" he asked I nodded and followed him to his room "Salina, there is something I want to give to you" he said as he walked to his nightstand, he then held a necklace; it was a gold chain and the main part was a red ruby in a shape of a heart it was a beautiful piece of jewelry.
"Oh my god, dad it is beautiful" I said as he chained it around my neck "It was your mothers, she told me to give it to you when I would meet you again but I was afraid that it wasn't the right time when I met you but now it is" I wasn't a big fan of jewelry but since it was my mother's I would treasure it forever and always. "Dad, I will treasure this forever and thank you so much" I said as I turned to hug my father "Well I am glad you like it".
I went back into my room with the necklace in my hand. I wanted to find the perfect place to put it in, so far I found a small box in the closet; it was a black box with decorative red inside so I decided to put the necklace in there and put it back into the closet. Who knows I might wear it on my wedding day.
I changed into my night clothes and crawled into bed, it was a long day and it was full of surprises it was tiring. But now I can close my eyes and fall asleep.
I woke up with a start as I felt someone touching my sides, it turned out it was Claude. "Claude, what are you doing here" I said trying not to be so loud but he answered that with a kiss on my lips and once again it was thrilling. "Salina, I can't take it any more I want you to be mine" he said it as he pinned me down to the bed. I had no thought about this but I didn't want to reject him.
"I want to wait until we get married but can I stay with you" he says it romantically and I was relived because I wanted to wait until we get married as well. "Yes you can stay with me" I said he smiled and kissed my lips one last time and rolled over next to me, he wrapped his arms around me. I almost thought to myself that I was doing it with him before we get married but I guess not and I was glad.
