Episode Nine
Samantha POV
"Hush my mistress don't you fret..." I sang in my softest voice. Cissillia had gone to take a nap after lunch, Claiming she didn't feel well. Then, after an hour, I'd walked in to check on her and found her kicking, muttering quickly and sweating terribly, she must be having a nightmare and running a fever. I placed my hand on her clammy forehead and felt that she was indeed warm enough to be running fever. I sighed and turning, I had left and come back with a cold cloth.
"Is she alright?" I heard Sebastian ask through the ajar door as I lay the cloth on her forehead.
"That Is none of your concern Mr. Michaelis." I snapped. Recently, ever since our littke conversation, I hadn't been letting him near Cissillia and he'd been getting upset which only annoyed me further... so, here we were. Two demons who were once best friends in our human life... Hating one another all for what? Half a soul, I sighed. Cissillia's soul wasn't all I wanted... As a matter of fact, I was beginning to learn that I didn't even really want her soul. Whenever I see her, I can't help but also see so much of myself in her. She is so much like me when I was that age. "She's fine." I finally whispered, standing up, I walked past him without glancing up at him.
Why can't I look at him... *Because... it hurts you that he'd be so willing as to slaughter you for a mere half a soul* said the little voice in my head and my stomach clenched. It was true though, because although I will fight him for that half a soul, I would not in a million years be able to kill him... yet, he'd slaughter me in a second... or at least... that's the impression he gave.
I knew he was hungry however so was I and although I love Cissillia as if she were my own, her soul does smell awfully delicious.
I sighed as I entered the kitchen and began on my chores as I thought of Cissillia and even Ciel. Then my thoughts changed and I shook my head and closed my eyes as the male Butler in the other room entered my thoughts.
(Flashback)
"I'm in love with you," he said quietly.
"James..." I began.
"I am," he said. He was staring at me, and I could see the corners of his mouth, turning up. "I'm in love with you, and I'm not in the business of denying myself the simple pleasure of saying true things. I'm in love with you, and I know that love is just a shout into the void, and that oblivion is inevitable, and that we're all doomed to hell, I know that this isn't the end, that this'll never be the end and I know the sun will swallow the only earth we'll ever have, and I know now for sure that I am in love with you." He put a hand on my cheek and held my face softly.
Tilting his head, he leaned in. Knowing what was to come next, I leaned in and our lips met in a soft kiss that filled my stomach with butterflies.
When we pulled apart, I looked into his beautiful eyes, and whispered, "I have always, do and always will love you James." I whispered.
(End Flashback)
After I finished my chores, I went to get Cissillia a new cold cloth and some other things for when she awoke. Sebastian had entered the kitchen and now was following me. In my attempt at trying to avoid him however, I dropped the cup of tea I'd made but in a millisecond, he caught it and gave me a smile. I just took the cup from him and went into my mistress's room. I placed the new cloth on her forehead, set the tea on the table and left her room. As I left, I walk slowly as to make sure Sebastian didn't go in there but he didn't, he followed me.
"Samantha?" He whispered.
"What?" I asked bluntly.
"May we talk?" He asked.
"What's there to talk about, you're going to murder me to get Cissillia's soul... Right?" I asked as I went to start on cleaning other things.
He sighed, "Samantha... look at me, I need to know... Do you still feel the same way about James?" Turning, I did look at him, and looking him in the eyes, I knew... that he didn't still love Emilyne.
"Like I said..." I began in a whisper. "I will ALWAYS love James..."
Ciel POV
I smiled serenely as I sat with Rosa, she wanted me to tell her a poem so she could nap and after thinking for a moment, something came to mind and I said, "Okay, I have one in mind."
Rosa nodded and scrambled under the blankets, looking up at me with her big sparkling eyes. "I'm ready!" She whispered, then yawned.
Nodding, I began, "I'll watch a little face fall fast asleep, Eyelashes will flutter so, I will wonder of the dream you will be having, and if Angels are playing inside them."
Rosa snuggled closer into her pillows, with a small yawn, and smiling, I continued. "I will soon watch a little face sleeping, Your small mouth is smiling so,
I hope that you will be as happy as me."
Rosa yawned again and closed her eyes, falling asleep. "I am now watching a little face sleeping, making sure of each breath you take,
to watch you breathe and keep you safe, is all that matters to me."
Reaching suddenly out, she grabbed my hand and smiling, I held it tightly. "I am now watching a little face sleeping, holding your small hand, tightly in mine, five little fingers on each hand, as one hangs onto mine." I smiled when I was positive she was asleep. And taking my hand out of her grip, I stood, leaned over, kissed her forehead, then left the room.
"Night daddy..." I heard her mutter and I froze.
"Night Rosa." Was all I could say before leaving the sleeping girl.
Sighing, I went to go check on Adam, who was playing with some toys.
(Later That Night)
Samantha POV
After everyone was asleep, and we'd finished our chores, Sebastian and I went to my room, to try and work this out.
"So... what I think is that we can somehow get my young masters half soul back by using your mistress." He said and I shook my head.
"Never, I will not risk Cissillia's life or the baby's life." I began and Sebastian sighed.
"Samantha, please, that baby has no chance in the first place. Do you really want Cissillia to go through what you went through?" He asked and I shook my head as that awful night came to mind.
"Then let us do this. Neither master nor mistress will be physically harmed so let us..." he trailed off in a sort of pleading way and after thinking about it, I finally nodded.
Cissy POV
I'd gone to bed after lunch and woke in the middle of the night thinking I heard someone crying. Thinking that I myself was weeping, I felt my face and it was dry.
Then I looked at the window and thought: Why, yes, it's just the rain, the rain, always the rain, and turned over, sadder still, and fumbled about for my dripping sleep and tried to slip it back on... that was useless however... sitting up, I looked around, my mouth was very dry and my skin was so hot, I bet I could cook eggs on it and despite my weakness, I got to my feet and left my room, and wondered about, I finally made my way to Samantha's room and stopped outside the closed door, because I heard my name.
"Maybe we can use a ritual to get the other half of the soul back." I heard Sebastian offer.
"Maybe, but that would hurt her." Samantha said and I heard Sebastian sigh.
"She will not be physically harmed-" he began however Samantha cut him off.
"Her child will perish and she will grieve." Samantha said quietly and I could practically hear Sebastian roll his eyes.
"She will get over it quicker the sooner the ritual is done." He said and My heart began to race with anticipation. However after a moment or two of silence my heart sank as I heard Samantha finally agree.
Turning swiftly on my feet, I ran to my room, wrote them a note, then grabbing my warm rain clothes and putting them on, I ran from the manor as fast as I could, into the thick cold rainy night.
Ciel: Oh wow, that was good and... MY SISTER BETTER BE OKAY!
Me: She maybe okay, maybe not so much... just keep reading and you'll find out.
Ciel: THEN UPDATE SOON... Oh and can I have a lollipop?
Me: *Pulls out watermelon flavor.* you like this kind.
Ciel: *Nods and takes lollipop.* thanks.
Me: No problem... *To readers* REVIEW!
