One more thing… …Sorry Tanaka…
"Sebastian, wait!"
Were Sebastian's reflexes any worse he would have fallen off the tree branch he was about to jump from. Irritably he asked, "Yes my lord?"
"There's no need to take that tone with me!"
"I apologize, my lord."
"We forgot someone."
"You mean Tanaka my lord? Yes, it seems the author has forgotten about him. He's in the hospital due to a carriage accident. He is expected to make a full recovery. Don't worry though. I will take care of the author shortly." Sebastian's smiling face was probably the scariest thing Ciel had ever seen.
"Alright, Sebastian."
"…Sebastian, wait!"
Sebastian's eyebrow twitched, "What is it this time my lord?"
"There's one other person I want to see."
"And who might that be?"
-Mini Time Skip! WOO! -
Minutes later Ciel and Sebastian were crouching in yet another shrub. But they were doing it in a dignified way so it was alright. They were simply waiting for their target to arrive.
Ciel mind flashed back to the Jack the Ripper case. They were lying in wait for their target then as well. Except they weren't in a bush then. Ciel remembered that day so well. Sebastian had found a cat. It was a small black cat. Sebastian had looked at that cat with a very different look in his eyes. It was sweet and made his butler look almost… cute.
My butler is not cute! Of course I would remember that day; my aunt died!
Ciel was jolted out of his thoughts when he heard a faraway door open. A blonde girl with curly pigtails and a bouncy cowlick hanging in front of her face ran outside with a big smile on her face. Today her dress was pink with white frills. Her headband matched with the addition of a white flower. She had on her favorite gold hoop earrings and low-heeled shoes. She spun around and waved to someone waiting inside the manor, probably her maid Paula, before sprinting back off into a field of blue wildflowers near a small stream
"Lizzie…" I'm glad you're alright.
Elizabeth knelt down in the middle of a particularly big patch of flowers. Her dress spread out around her. She watched the stream for a moment before her emerald green eyes sadden and her broad smile fade suddenly. Tears started leaking into her eyes and ran down her pale face. She buried her face in her hands and sobbed quietly as to not disturb her maid.
Or not.
"Oh, Ciel," she wailed, "it's already been so long! Why did you have to leave?" She dabbed at her eyes and gave a sad smile, "I've been a good girl for you. I made sure everyone is happy and they think I am too. I wish you could see me now. I know you would be proud of me. But I also know you're watching over me," she sighed, her smile fading a little, "Do you remember this place Ciel? We used to play here when we were kids. You would always have so much fun here. You smiled all the time. After both the fires, when I thought I lost you, I came here to say good-bye. I made you a blue ring from a flower. Well, Paula helped me a little," she giggled softly, "Both times you returned to me. So when I thought I lost you again, I came back here. I thought you would return. But you didn't. I couldn't even say good-bye." Tears kept forming in her eyes and she continued to futilely dab at them, "I came back. I thought you would too. But I know you're watching over me right Ciel?" She smiled and wiped at her eyes again. She picked a flower and fiddled with it in her hand before holding it out in her hand. Ciel peered at the object and recognized the blue flower ring he found in the river he and Sebastian had gone down the first time their contract was fulfilled.
So it was you. Lizzie, I'm sorry.
As if on cue, the wind blew and picked up the flower ring before continuing on its way as if nothing had happened. The blue flower drifted off to far for even Ciel to see. Elizabeth kept staring after it, in the distance, still smiling. She closed her eyes, and bowed her head, as if in prayer. She remained this way for a moment before raising her gaze and putting on another one of her famous broad smiles. She spun on her heel and ran back towards the manor shouting her maid's name at the top of her voice.
*Victory laugh* I did it! I finished this today! It's almost midnight but who cares! HAHA! Sorry again Tanaka, I always forget you, though I feel you are a part of the Phantomhive household. Mainly Lizzie in this chapter and I've never thought of including her in this. Hope you guys like it! Don't worry jealous Sebastian is coming very, very soon. Like, next chapter soon.
