Thank you all so much for reading! You have no idea how much it means to us!
Happy Halloween!
Kuroshitsuji is Yana Toboso's!
"Mistress," Sebastian called coolly from above, causing me to wake.
I yawned. "Yes?"
"You have to get ready for the ball. We must leave in an hour to be there on time."
"Okay..." He got up and carried me to my bathroom. Sebastian helped me into the shower before I sent him away, I knew I wouldn't be able to do anything with him in the same room.
I showered and dried my hair before I pinned it up. I applied heavy mascara and covered my face with concealer. Concealer also cover the bruises I knew would be visible through my dress.
The dress was floor length and a light shade of pink. It was a form fitting mermaid with a deep slit up one side and was slightly ruched. The dress had a deep v-neck and there was a silver detail just under the neck line. I paired it with silver flats that had straps weaving up, just above my ankle, a wrist full of silver bangles and a layered crystal necklace. I managed all this and I still had fifteen minutes before we had to go.
I walked out into the living and sat on the couch I had previously occupied. I flipped on the TV and stared blankly at the screen.
"You're very loud, for such a little person." Ciel walked in. He was wearing an all black tux and his hair was slicked back on one side, the other slightly covered his eye patch.
I bushed. "Sorry..."
"Maybe you're size is why you're so loud." Ciel looked me over, then he blushed, too. "You look very nice."
"Thank you. You look quiet dashing, too." I smiled warmly. He looked away, not meeting my eyes. I slid the remote down the coffee table, closer to him before I went to the kitchen.
Mid-sandwich, Sebastian came in, wearing a black suit. I looked over my peanut butter and jelly at him, his eyes were burning into mine through the unneeded glasses. "That dress suits you well, Mistress. Though, something so tight..."
"Everything is too short or too tight." I rolled my eyes.
"You're name is Lena," Ciel piped up as he joined us in the kitchen. "It's fitting."
"I don't understand." I gave him a confused look.
"Lena is Latin for temptress, I believe that is what my young master is referring to, my lady."
"I didn't know teachers were going to the formal, too." I segued.
"Yes, it's an opportunity to meet our incoming students, or in my case, meet fellow staff members. Parents are invited, as well. I will be in their place."
"Grell said that one of his friends taught at Weston." Another segue.
"That will prove to be interesting." He placed a crooked finger under his bottom lip.
"That's what he said. He also said something about you too being 'star-crossed lovers.'" I smirked. Ciel chocked back a laugh.
"Sutcliff is a loon." He smiled darkly.
"Probably." I giggled. "We should get going."
