"Are you ready to depart, my love?" Lila stopped packing her suitcase and turned her head to see Sebastian standing only a few feet behind her. He was smiling, but his maroon eyes were full of mischief. Lila flushed slightly under the look she was recieving and shook her head. "Not yet. I still have a few more things to pack." She turned around to continue packing, but she found it very difficult when a butler attached himself to her waist and buried his nose in her hair.

"You know I could pack faster then you, and we'd have a few minutes to ourselves before we leave..." His gloved hands moved from her waist to trace little circles on her stomach, causing her to giggle. "That sounds like a wonderful idea.'

Sebastian barely had time to blink before Lila practically threw herself at him. He immediately caught her and put his hands around her waist, pulling her closer to him, loving the way she mewled at the contact. It was a few days after the curry contest and today was the day that Ciel, Lila, Sebastian and the trio of terror were heading back to the manor in the forest. Soma and Agni were now taking care of the townhouse instead of returning to India like they originally planned.

Lila's birthday was tomorrow, but Sebastian noticed that she had been more... out-going than she had before. This started almost a week ago. She had been talking louder and laughing more. She also seeked Sebastian out and kissed him more than once in front of other people, something she would have never done before.

Soma hugged Ciel tightly before Sebastian helped him up and into the carriage, as soon as Ciel was out of sight, Soma turned his attention to Lila and hugged her tightly as well. Thankfully, Sebastian was helping Meirin up onto the very back of the carriage where she, Bard and Finny would be sitting and did not see this little gesture.

Lila pressed a kiss to Soma's cheek, causing him to blush, but thankfully it wasn't very noticeable because Sebastian didn't glare at him when he turned around and bid Soma and Agni farewell until they would need to stay in the townhouse again.

Lila sat in the very front of the carriage with Sebastian, she stood up and waved at Soma and Agni until she could no longer see them. Things were fairly calm on the road, despite this being the middle of January, there was no breeze and no falling snow.

Lila was bundled up in a thick wool coat and matching hat and mittens, but after five minutes of traveling, she had taken off her mittens, fifteen minutes later she abandoned the hat and almost half an hour later she was trying to take off her coat, complaining that she was hot.

Well, she certainly looked like she had a fever. Her face was shiny with sweat and there was a little blush over her nose and cheeks. "Why don't you go in the carriage with the Young Master and rest?" Sebastian suggested. Lila shook her head no and immediately regretted it when she got light-headed. Sebastian stopped the carriage and helped Lila into the carriage, he laid her down on the seat opposite to Ciel and made sure she was comfortable before he went back to steering the horses.

It took them nearly an hour to get back to the manor because of the blanket of snow that covered the road, but at long last, they had returned. Sebastian unlocked the front door first and then went back to the carriage to help Ciel down. Bard and Finny went to grab some shovels to clear the driveway and the walkway while Meirin went inside with Ciel to boil some water.

Sebastian carried Lila into the house, up the staircase and into her bedroom. He took off her shoes and laid her down on the bed before he pressed a kiss to her lips and went to prepare some lunch for Ciel. After he kicked Bard out of the kitchen, he made roasted chicken with garlic mashed potatoes and fresh vegetables. He set the table, got Ciel and went to get Lila, but upon entering her room, he could tell there was something seriously wrong with her.

The room was like a sauna and Lila hadn't moved from her position, but she was panting now, as though she were having some sort of breathing problem. Since Ciel was being taken care of downstairs, Sebastian intended to take care of Lila.

He collected some cool water and wash-cloth from the bathroom and wiped the sweat from Lila's face before drenching the cloth, wringing it of exess water and putting it on her forehead. Seastian was a demon, and he had hardly ever seen anybody who was sick before, so he wasn't quite sure how to deal with it, but he'd seen Madam Red at the hospital a little while after Ciel summoned him, so he supposed he was doing something right, because after a while, Lila stopped panting and her breathing evened out.

He repeated his actions with the wash-cloth and he kissed her forehead before he put the wash-cloth on and went downstairs. Ciel was finished eating and the dishes were cleared, he could hear Meirin in the kitchen crying about a bubble carpet, but he walked passed the door and never offered to help her; There were other servants, surely all three of them together wouldn't be that disaterous.

... Well, Sebastian wasn't stupid. They would cause a disaster, but it was nothing he couldn't handle.

"It'll be nice to relax." Ciel said to no-one in particular. He sat alone in his office with his back to the door, staring out the windows at the snow that blanketed the earth. It was pure white, and from where he was sitting, there was not a single foot-print to blemish it. Wait... what was that? Ciel got off his chair and pressed his nose against the cold glass in an attempt to see better.

"Is that... Lila?" Ciel questioned out-loud, wiping the glass clean with his sleeves when his breath made it steam up. That was indeed Lila, but she was still wearing the dress she was wearing before, with no shoes, no coat, no hat or mittens.

"Is she cold? Wait, where is she going?" Ciel immediately rang the bell that was under his desk and in less then five seconds flat, Sebastian was standing in front of him with his hand over his chest. "You called, Young Master?"

"Where is Lila going?" Ciel asked immediately, wasting no time and not even looking away from the window. Sebastian raised an eyebrow. "Going?" He, too looked out the window. "Oh my... Where would she be going dressed like that?"

"That's what I was wondering. We should follow her." Sebastian quickly got Ciel's coat and boots and before he knew what was happening, Sebastian scooped him up in his arms and jumped out the window, landing without a sound in the snow. Upon closer inspection, it looked as though Lila was sleep-walking, she wasn't shivering from the cold, or the snow that was melting in her stockings, it was like she didn't even feel it.

They followed her for more than an hour, she was went through London and only stopped once she was just outside the city, looking up at a orphanage. It looked very old, the bricks were falling out and the roof looked about ready to cave in.

"Why would she come here?" Ciel questioned, glancing around with distaste. Sebastian thought for a moment before he responded. "Didn't you say before that Lila was adopted by Madam Durless?"

"I did... Could this possibly be the orphanage she grew up in? But why would she return here?" They continued to watch her while still remaining hidden. Lila looked around as though she sensed their presence, but she continued walking, past the gates, up the stairs and through the front door.

They stood there for a few minutes before Lila's ear-piercing shriek made both of them jump. "Let's go, Sebastian!" Ciel commanded. Sebastian scooped him up in his arms and ran into the building. Sebastian could feel Lila's presence in the very back of building, under-ground. He quickly located a set of stairs and ran into the basement.

There Sebastian and Ciel found Lila... and they also found a strange looking man sitting on a chair, much like a throne. Sebastian recognized him instantly. His hair was dark red and spiky and unkempt, his skin was as pale as the freshly fallen snow and he had blood red eyes.

"You've come to me, my dear." He crooned, using his left hand to cup Lila's face so she was looking at him with heavily lidded eyes. "It has been such a long time since I saw a beauty like yourself."

"Who is that man, Sebastian?" Ciel whispered. "What is he?"

"He is a demon, My Lord. That is Satan."

[Authors Note: While I was writing this chapter, I was seriously considering putting this story on hiatus, but I don't know if I should or not. I think I write one thousand times better when I write about Hetalia, so I can assure you when I finish writing this story, there will be no sequels or anything like that. I probably won't even be writing for Black Butler unless it was a drabble or something, or if I got REALLY inspired.]
