Hey Hi Hello everyone! I'm back. Let's get this chapter on the road. Or online.


~Alois P.O.V

I awaited the return of Ciel patiently, absentmindedly picking at the breakfast platter. Ciel was gone for about 10 minutes when I heard three familiar voices downstairs.

"You what?" I heard Ciel say. I walked out to the top of the stairs.

"We were sent to retrieve our Master." Thompson said, turning to the other two as they nodded in sync. I glanced over to Ciel and Elizabeth. Ciel was confused while Elizabeth wasn't even trying to hide her happiness about my leaving.

"Okay! Let me go get him and his stuff!" She said, heading upstairs. She stopped when she saw me standing at the top. Her smile dropped and it turned into an ugly scowl.

"What are you doing here?" I seethed at the triplets. "Why are you talking, for that matter?" I glared at them as they went silent once again.

"Alois?" Ciel asked, turning to me as I walked down the stairs. His cold front was on, but I saw a faint glint of betrayal in his eyes. "Are you leaving?"

"What? Of course not!" I retorted. "I don't even know why they showed up." I said nodding to the mute triplets.

"What do you mean?!" Elizabeth yelled. "They're obviously your servants, they showed up for you, and they came to bring you back home! What do you mean you don't know why they showed up?!"

"Elizabeth." Ciel snapped, muting the 4th person in the room before turning back to me. "Why did they show up to bring you home if you weren't planning to leave?"

"We were ordered to come bring you home, My Lord." Claude said, entering the foyer from the front door. "The carriage is out front waiting for you." I glanced confusedly from Claude to a mad looking Ciel.

"Ciel, it's not what it looks like." I said, reaching out to him. He recoiled away from me.

"Come on Elizabeth. Lets go for some tea." He said, grabbing the blondes hand and dragging her to the kitchen. I glared at the four servants standing next to me.

"What in the bloody hell was that?!" I asked them. The triplets glanced at each other and shrugged, and Claude looked at me confused.

"You ordered us to come pick you up, did you not?" Claude raised a dark eyebrow.

"No, I did not! I said nothing or the sort!" I screamed at the four as someone outside started shouting. I walked over to the front doors to get a better listen, but Claude grabbed my arm and flew to the other side of the room. I was about to protest when the doors went flying off their hinges, sending the triplets scattering. By this time, my demon butler was up and examining who or what knocked down the doors. I felt a sharp pain in my side where Ciel had stabbed me, but I ignored it. Sebastian, Ciel, and Elizabeth all ran into the foyer. Sebastian was quickly examining the scene with Claude, Elizabeth had her stupid lost and confused expression on her face, and Ciel was irritated. He looked around the room until his eyes landed on me. He was about to turn away when he did a double take. His blue eye widened as he slowly walked closer to me.

"Ciel?" I asked. "What's wrong?"

"D-Don't move, Trancy." He said as he knelt down next to me. He started unbuttoning my shirt. I was embarrassed at first until I looked down. My stiches had come undone in the crash, and I was bleeding profusely. It wasn't until I saw the wound to that extent did the pain start registering. I screamed as Ciel ripped my shirt off. I heard him call for Claude before passing out.

XXXXX

I awoke in the guest room bed with a shooting pain in my side. I looked between the opening in the drawn curtains. It was pitch black outside. "How long was I out?" I half wondered, half groaned aloud.

"Just a few hours, nothing major." Came Ciel's reply from the other side of the room. I jumped and the pain quickly drove up my side and wracked my spine. I yelped and Ciel quickly walked over to me. He reached out to help me, but I held my hand up to stop me.

"I don't need your help. Especially when you wont bother to listen to me." I muttered as I slowly sat up. Ciel raised a dark eyebrow and I felt my heart leap. "Earlier? When my servants came and you wouldn't believe me when I said I wasn't going home?" I tried clarifying for the confused looking teen. The blunette must've remembered, because he sighed and sat in the chair next to the bed.

"When you're seeing it from my eyes, it is kind of hard to believe."

"Well, there are some things you just have to trust. Like when I said that I'm not leaving you. I'm not. I really don't know why they showed up, but I contacted them in no way to come and retrieve me. You have to believe me." I slightly pleaded with the boy. "I'm not planning on leaving you, no matter how much you or your little fiancé come to hate me." All the boy did was nod.

"That's fine. And to clear something up-" He started, but was interrupted by a knock on the door. Sebastian called from the other side, and Ciel ordered him to open the door.

"Young Master, the Trancy residents insist on moving back in tonight to protect their master." Sebastian reported. Ciel nodded.

"Let them do so. See to it that their accommodations meet and exceed their needs." Sebastian returned the expressionless nod.

"And Lady Elizabeth is awaiting your retire of the night. I suggest you make it soon." With that statement the blunette heaved an exasperated sigh. He waved his hand as he stood to leave.

"I'm coming. Oh, and I'm not finished talking to you, Trancy. Goodnight." He muttered, leaving the room with Sebastian.

"Goodnight, Ciel." I replied as I quickly drifted off into a deep sleep.


Well that took forever to come up with. And I like breaking chapters down by day, so they have some pretty interesting days.

And there's more to come, Darlings.

Kind of fell of the face of the Earth for a while. Sorry bout dat. The end of the School Year's winding to a close, so I've been suuuuper busy with high school interviews and application deadlines and Student Council and Testing and Fake friends VS Real friends and sigggghhhhh.

Just a glob ton has happened, and I'm glad to sit back down and write again.

Even if this chapter sucks math. I'll be back to my regular oh-look-I-don't-suck-that-bad- writing.

ANYWAYS, As always leave a review telling me how I'm doing!

Until next time, Darlings!
