Cece's Pov

'' Remember Cecilia , look for any clues for Scarlett. There must be a clue hidden amongst the roses . Also , look out for anything suspicious . Princeton and Sebastian will be looking for clues too,'' Ciel said to me while we were riding in the carriage, on the way to the party .

When we arrived , a young maid with curly brown hair greeted us and showed us the way to the garden . The smell of tea and sweets mixed with the smell of the roses were like I was in a dream.

''Cieeeeeeeellllllllllllllllllllllllll'' Lizzy said aloud and hugged him tightly .

''Cece! '' Sarah greeted me with a cursive. I hugged her gently and gave her a smile .

''Elizabeth! How many times have i told you not to greet your fiancé like that?'' Aunt Frances said with a stern look .

''Ohhh ! My future son! '' Marquis Midford said and hugged Ciel too

''Stop it ! Both of you!'' Aunt Francis scolded both of them .

It was really quite a scene two see how alike Lizzy was with her Father . I giggled while Aunt Francis gave them a lecture . It was really funny seeing both of them showing the puppy dog face to her .

''Hello Cecilia,'' Edward greeted me . I greeted back with a smile and a wave . Sarah came close to me and tugged the white silk ribbon on my skirt gently .

''Hmmm? Yes?'' I asked her and she looked left and right as if looking for something.

''Cece... Where is Scar?'' She asked. I was stunned by her words and could not think of anything to answer. My mouth opened and closed many times but no sound came out . Edward looked at me with the 'why aren't you answering' look on his face.

He came closer to me and asked me,''Where exactly is Scarlett?''

I was close to breaking down . I screamed ' HOW WOULD I KNOW . I WOULD LOVE FOR HER TO BE HERE AND EATING THE SWEETS WITH ME WHILE ENOYING THE STUNNING ROSES ,'' But of course, i screamed in my head where no one would be able to hear me .

''Excuse me , Lord Edward. But Lady Scarlett has attended a party in Birmingham to represent the Funtom Company , as the Earl is too young to be taken seriously by that crowd of people ,so she could not make it,'' Prince covered for me .

''Hmmmmm... But it is unlikely for Scarlett to be separated from Cecilia .. And who are you anyway?'' Edward said with a confused look on his face

''I am Princeton, butler to Lady Scarlett and Fla-... I mean Lady Cecilia,'' He answered. If were any other day , i would have killed him for calling me (well almost anyway) Flat-chest in public, but my mind was only focused on one thing. Finding any clue about Scar was my main priority and i will not fool around until i have found even a minor clue.

As Ciel was talking to the Midford family, I slipped away silently and walked further in to the garden with Prince by my side for protection.

In the middle of it was a small white gazebo . It was really pretty and the roses' thorns were on the covered the four pillars .

'' The flower veins that binds are beautiful but deadly'' i said to myself. This must be it. The place where I would find a clue where they hid Scarlett.

''I walked slowly towards the gazebo when Prince pulled me away. An arrow was shot and it barely missed me . I wanted to thank Prince but the note attached to the arrow distracted me.

I untangled the note from the tail of the arrow and read it out loud .

''You entered the labyrinth but the path you chose to find the princess leads you to a dead end. I shall be kind and repeat the clue again with a little extra hint.

The flower veins that binds are beautiful but deadly.

Beauty of a flower is perilous ,

Overwhelming beauty has brought men to their knees,

Under this curse the thorns pierces the fallen,

Gallant soldiers has fallen because of the beauty of a lady,

An alluring flower that is all they can see,

In their eyes, there is no danger of it

No harm would befall them if they pluck it , they believed

Venomous poison that is invisible to the eyes

Incredible power to attract those poor dense men

Luminous light that blinded the weak

Lingering the sweet smell in the air

Enter it's spell and eternity it is

All the poor fools trapped in there ,''

As soon as i read the letter, I ran over to Ciel's side, unfortunately, he was greeting the host and the hostess so I waited until he was finished.

''My my... What a lovely Robin,'' A guy with shaggy light blonde hair and lavender eyes. He was dressed in elegant clothing that consist of a white suit, a pocket square ,an ascot tie , accompanied by accessories which was a brooch and a pair of white gloves.

''Excuse me?'' I asked him . When i looked at him closely , he was actually quite handsome.

''You, my lady .. Have we met before? I have these memories about twin tails.. Or was it something else?'' The guy said to me.

''I think you got the wrong person . I have not met you before,'' I said in a monotone voice. Ciel spotted me and walked towards me until he spotted the man i was with. He gave a shiver and bolted off somewhere.

''I have to go..'' I said , giving him a smile and ran off to find Ciel.

When I found him , I was huffing and puffing from all the running .

''Just a little run and you are tired ? You need more exercise , my dear Lady,'' Prince said to me . I would have punched him if i was not so tired.

''We got... The ... W..Wrong place,'' I said between my breaths .

''What?'' Ciel asked me .

''WE GOT THE WRONG PLACE! THE CLUE TO FIND SCAR IS NOT HERE!'' I shouted. I handed over the note that i crushed in my hand while running to Ciel.

''If it is not here.. Then where is it?'' Ciel asked me and I shook my head.

I reread the poem in my mind. The poem is clearly about beauty that has made man go crazy . Beauty that was not within their grasp but they desperately wanted in their life.

Is there a hidden clue amongst the words in the poem?

No matter how much i reread it , nothing came to my mind. If only Scar was here. She would interpret the poem easily . As easy as figures and sewing was to her.

I have to figure it out.. This time Scar is not by my side. I will solve the puzzle and find the clue hidden in it. Scar will not always be by my side and I must learn to accept that. Even thought we are twins, we are two persons that has a different path laid down in front of them .

I reread the poem for the millionth time when Prince and Sebastian said in unison.

''Bougainvillea''


Did anyone else break the code? I will be going to bed now! Oyasumi!
