Shopping and Prices in Business

Ciel and Sebastian walked downstairs where Lizzy was waiting for them. She smiled a large smile when Ciel came down the stairs. "Ciel you're coming!"

He looked down at her with his usual blank face, "I...suppose I am..."

Lizzy clapped her hands together, holding onto the tips of her gloved fingers, and smiling with an extra goofy smile. She ran over to him and pulled him down the rest of the stairs, "We're going to have so much fun! I never went shopping with you before-"
She was clearly a little too excited and Ciel just looked at her with widened eyes, thinking she'd talk until her face turned purple. He drowned her out, until he couldn't take anymore of her voice, "Lady Elizabeth!" She stopped and looked at him. His voice was full of rage and Sebastian even looked at him. "You're going to give me a headache..."

She kept quiet for a few seconds than continued quite calmly, "Okay... Maybe you could get new ideas for toys!"

Ciel looked down at the ground, trying his best not to roll his eyes at her. He kept his voice below a whisper, as they headed for the doors, "...I don't think she even understands how to run a business..."


They made it to the shopping district and Lizzy ran over to a particular shop that housed clothes. She gasped at the dress she saw in a window, "That is so cute!"

Ciel stood behind her and looked at it, until he noticed the price tag. His face began to look flushed, even shocked. He walked over to her, "Lizzy..."

He tried to change his direction away from the price-tag and towards Lizzy. She looked at him, clearly not caring about money, "What?"

He watched as her jaw tightened. He took a breath, then a gulp, "You don't really want that dress do you?"

She rose an eyebrow, but Sebastian just watched them with curiosity. Lizzy continued to look at Ciel, "Of course I do!"

He looked back at the window. How is she not seeing the price? "That dress is twenty three million dollars... Do you still want it?"

"Well-" She looked back at the dress. Her lips folded in, then out. She looked at Ciel. "...Erm..." She looked at the dress once more, "No. I suppose not..."

Her gaze switched to the ground, while Ciel heaved in a thankful breath of air, "Thank God..."


Later on Lizzy saw a toy shop... It was very girlie and was filled with so many goodies -obviously meant for a child. "Hey Ciel!"

Ciel stopped in his tracks, "What?"

"Look!" She pointed towards the toy shop. The sign said: Burgundy Cutesy Toyz. "That'll give you some inspiration!"

Ciel rose an eyebrow at the sign, then looked at Lizzy like she was nuts. "I can not steal designs from another toy-shop! That'll put Funtom Company out of business!"

Lizzy blinked a few times and looked at the dirt road, "Sorry... I didn't know..."

Ciel sighed, leading her off to a new line of shops. He let out a deep breath of air, "How about we focus on something that doesn't involve my business..."

She looked up at him with her glassy, green eyes, which only made it worse to focus on the merchandise in the stores. The sun shined on them, making them glitter and sparkle and he soon realized she was trying to tell him something, "...Come on!"

She grabbed his arm and led him over to an accessory shop. It was full of girlie jewelry and such... Why didn't he notice she was telling him about it...


He looked around the shop. "Er..." His eyes landed on a necklace that Lizzy was interested in, "God..."

She picked it up and showed Ciel, "Look! Isn't it pretty?"

"Sure... It's also expensive -look at the prices Lizzy."

She looked at the price-tag, "Oh." She put it back. It was too expensive to be bought by Ciel. She looked at him, clearly sorry for what she did. "Sorry, Ciel..."

She walked out, after looking around at other jewelry that was way too expensive for Ciel to buy for her.


When they met Sebastian at a Funtom Company hot-spot in the shopping district, they began to go back to Phantomhive manor.
