Hello, hope you all enjoy the story and further chapters to come!

"Stop" Sebastian instructs and the pinkette stops in her tracks.

"Miss Nina, I find this one suitable."

Nina shakes her head, Amy had been modeling 5 outfits prior to the one she is wearing only now and the young master Ciel just looked bored throughout which displeased her greatly.

"Ciel, what do you think?"

The young earl raises his head, taking a good look at Amu. She wore a dark red, elbow length sleeved dress that ended at the knee with black leggings and matching red shoes. A striped red bow tied around the collar and on her tiny white apron were 4 red buttons but unlike Mei Rin's apron, the buttons were sewed on above the small girl's waist. On her head, she wore a red headband that matched the red of her dress.

"I think this is just right, wouldn't you agree young master? It's a dark colour so it won't stain easily, the buttons is a reminiscent pattern from Mei Rin's uniform and she looks just the right amount of pleasant."

Ciel sighed, he supposed that Sebastian was right but something in his gut told him, he didn't want her walking around in that.

"Actually, this is the design that Amy made."

The earl blinks, looking up at the pinkette to see her smiling shyly and nodding.

"Young master, the other outfits you saw were other dresses I have made previously for other clients but I have made 4 new designs that I think you might like better. Won't you at least let little Amy model these 4 before you confirm your decision?"

Ciel sighs, wondering if he should just go with Sebastian's suggestion so that he can just get back to his work however, if Nina went through the trouble of making 4 new outfits that means it would be in the bill hence he should at least see them.

"Very well."

Meanwhile, at the back, Amu reluctantly takes off her Humpty Lock and leaves it carefully on the table before taking out the next outfit from the black bag next to her. She flushed greatly seeing it and prayed she won't die of embarrassment.

Ten minutes later, Ciel was sipping tea but stopped and swallowed hard seeing Amu step out again. The pinkette wore a fiery red and white dress with 3 little red buttons down the front and big red puffy sleeves, white leggings and little red shoes. The apron tied tightly around her waist with 4 little buttons on the hem and white frill detail adorned the bottom of the dress and the neckline but what transfixed Ciel was that little amount of skin showing between the dress and her collar; the white collar was separated from the dress itself and a little red ribbon was used to keep it in place. not to mention the fact that compared to other dresses she wore, the one she was wearing now hugged her petite frame much better.

"What do you think young master?" Nina asks.

"Next" he answers curtly, hoping his face didn't betray how hot he was feeling on the inside.

Amu steps out again in a dress the same colour but more red than white. Instead of a collar, she wore a little red choker with white lacing on the sides and a much smaller white apron that tied around the waist. The sleeves were much shorter but the gap of skin that showed was much larger compared to earlier. This time, a black ribbon was sewn on the front of the dress and it had no buttons at all. Amu wore a white headband on her head this time round but the same white leggings and the same little red shoes.

"Next"

Sebastian resists the urge to smirk. It won't be too far till Ciel will turn 15 so he should not have been surprised that the pretty 14 year-old Japanese girl tugged at the boy's curiosity.

Amu steps out again in something that Ciel swears he felt like his entire body was on fire.

This showed way more skin than the other two dresses but the same white leggings and little red shoes. Like the first of Nina's designs, the collar was separated from the dress but buttoned up to keep it in place. The dress had white detached sleeves that was worn above her elbows. The red dress had a halter neckline and a corset design, the apron was already part of the dress so you couldn't tie it on place like the rest. Compared to the others, it was more costume than an actual uniform but it showed off Amu's long tan arms and supple shoulders shamelessly.
Now Ciel was a little more afraid of what the last one was going to look like yet he knew he wanted to see it.

"Change"

"Young Maser" Sebastian addresses quietly, "I do not approve of that outfit."

"Shut up Sebastian..."

"E-erm! This is the last!"

Ciel covers his mouth, knowing he can longer hide the redness in his face and silently wondered how Amu could change clothes so damn quickly.

This last dress was about the same as the previous one except there was no neckline so her arms, shoulders and the flesh above her chest were all there to see. This dress had much more white frill embellishments, it was adorned on the bottom and top of the red dress, the bottom of the white apron tied tightly around her small waist, the bottom and top of her red detached sleeves and red choker around her neck. The front of the dress had a pink ribbon sewn on the front that matched the pink of her hair where speaking of which a red ribbon was tied in her hair too.
She looked beautiful.

"Nina, we will take Amu's design and all four of your designs as well."

The brunette claps her hands in glee while Sebastian frowned, "Miss Hopkins designs are not fitting as a maid of an established household."

"This my household. I decide what goes Sebastian. This is not up for a dispute."

Sebastian relents unwillingly and Amu blushes redder as Ciel makes eye contact with her as he stands up, "Sebastian leave the room at once."

"Yes Milord."

Amu stares as Ciel comes closer and closer towards her, "We will name the uniforms as follows; Ribbon, Buttons, Choker, Sleeves and Frills. You will wear Ribbon when there is a formal event or if the Midford family comes for a visit. You will wear Buttons and Choker on alternate days. Sleeves and Frills are only to be worn in my presence and in mine alone. Are we clear?"
Amu nods her head meekly with Ciel so close, she could feel his eye piercing through her.

"Take off the leggings."

"EHHHH?!"

Ciel leans in, smirking, "Would you rather I cover your mouth and strip it off you myself?"

Amu shakes her head violently and hurriedly takes off her shoes and her leggings. She watches the young earl bend one knee and gently brush his soft hands down her legs.

"M-master-"

"Shut up"

Amu flushed as Nina watches on, highly amused.

Guess the boy does have a libido.

"Nina!"

"Yes Ciel?"

The young teenager turns and smirks at Nina, "Shoes may remain the same but I want her to have four pairs of socks. Two black for Choker and Ribbons. Two white for Buttons and Sleeves. One white with frill detail at the top for Frills." Nina nods and Ciel's smirk becomes wider as he motions to Nina how long he wants the socks to be with his finger. "The socks must be this high, no shorter or higher than this level."

Amu gasps in shock that Ciel was ordering Nina to make thigh high socks for to wear!

"Are you kidding me?"

Ciel stands and Amu gulps, seeing the look on his face and recants what she said, "E-erm -wwhatever you want young Master..."

"You will go to town with Sebastian in 5 minutes. I had Nina make a coat for you."

Amu tilts her head, confused because she didn't remember seeing any sort of coat while she was changing until she notices Nina coming toward her with a beautiful maroon red robe-like coat of wool material and golden embroidery on the bottom skirt.

"Sebastian is taking you to town to buy the other necessities you may need. Carry on."

The pinkette curtsies, taking the coat from the tailor before hurrying off to the back to change and Ciel watches her go blankly.

"She really is interesting" he mutters quietly.

Amu tries to push past the crowds people, realizing she lost Sebastian.

Crap!

Where is-?

The pinkette gasps, suddenly feeling big hands holding her by the waist lifting her up in the air, "H-hey!"

"Calm down Amelia, it's me."

Sebastian rests the child to sit comfortably on his broad shoulder much to the girl's embarrassment. She meekly asks him to put her down but he rejects saying it's too troublesome to hold on to the girl and carry all the shopping things. She argues that she feels embarrassed but Sebastian monotonously rejects still causing Amu to pout much to the butler's silent amusement.

"Amelia, are you really alright with the uniforms?"

She flushes shyly but answers, "Well, it's not that different from anything I worn in my time, it's just a little more embarrassing because I will be waiting on somebody that's my age."

"I see. Could you answer another question for me then?"

"Y-yes?"

"The curtsies, perfect use of cutlery and command of the English language, is this trained in the school you were from?"

"Oh no, I learned them all from my grandparents from my mother's side. My grandfather was English and my grandmother was French-Japanese. They were from a wealthy upbringing so they taught me all the proper etiquette befitting a lady of the court."

"Yet you accept being a maid of the Phantomhive household?" Sebastian asks, intrigued.

"My mother was forced to drop out of the running for company succession hence I do not have any claim to to be a lady of the court otherwise due to unfortunate circumstances. My grandparents still love me regardless but I can tell my mother sometimes miss her old lifestyle; the books of knowledge she used to read, the food she used to dine and the riches at her disposal but she is happy with her life now and I guess that is all that matters."

Sebastian remains silent, very curious and wondered what would Ciel think about all this.

Ciel sits in his office, distracted as he reflected over what happened this morning.. The memory of seeing Amu's bare skin and the feel of her legs on his hands lingered fresh in his mind. She had beautiful tanned skin and captivating eyes. The blush on her face was so adorable as Nina made the girl model each outfit.

Ciel sighs irritably knowing the Midfords would behead him for even thinking of another female attractive when he was engaged to Elizabeth but the thing is, Ciel didn't remember any thoughts running through his head when he saw her wear Nina's first design. All he remembered was his face heating up and his heart racing but he also remembered the rush of power he had over her when he saw her completely flushed and meekly obliging him when she tried to object to the socks he wanted for her.

What was this feeling?

Ciel closed his eyes and remembers what he said to her.

"Sleeves and Frills are only to be worn in my presence and in mine alone. Are we clear?"

Why did Ciel say that? Even Ciel didn't know.

The teenager groans, unsure of what to think.

Troublesome...

The carriage had arrived and Sebastian was just about to help the little maid off his shoulder when he hears an awful yet familiar strident voice.

"SEBASTIAN MY LOVE!"

Suddenly a man Amu does not recognize rushes forward to where she was and so she acts quickly and maneuvers her body to sit on top of the carriage and watches the strange man collapse on Sebastian.

"Sebastian! I have missed you my beloved!"

Amu gasps watching Sebastian punch the man hard in the mouth before pushing him off, "I told you not to appear in front of me!"

"Ahhh! But my love-!"

Sebastian kicks the man irritably causing Amu to cringe, feeling sorry for the man, she jumps off the carriage roof with ease and kneels besides the man as Grell sits up in pain.

"Are you alright?"

Grell turns and freezes as he meet eyes with the pinkette.

"Alice?"

The man sways after muttering the unfamiliar name and Amu catches him before his head hits the ground.

"Sir?!"

Sebastian watches the pinkette panic over Grell's unconscious body and deadpans.

Who is Alice?

What did Amelia do to cause a grim reaper to faint?
