No matter what the Finnian and the others tried to do, they couldn't really turn Harmony's...well..unpleasant mood around. Even Angi and Soma had little effect with her. She remain gloomy and dishearten, moved about like a phantom, a weeping phantom that wailed for the whereabouts of Ciel, Sebastian and now her sister, who had gone missing or better left without a single word. Not even Snake's snakes had much effect, though they did a bit better than the others. Especially Wilde and Emily, whom stayed in her presence.

Not even the cookies that where prepared for her quelled or much of Soma's affection. She returned it with hollowness, he tired to read her stories, tell her stories, but that didn't do much. Even playing n go seek didn't help. She just...clung to her white rabbit plushie and stayed in her room, if not her room, she'd be found curled up before either Ciel's room or May's. It was always mostly in the morning, even at this very moment.

Angi's heart wept for the little girl curled before his eyes, she was so little and yet...kneeling down he scooped her up carefully as well mindful of the snakes around her. Even in his arms, she remained small, some of it was due to her lack of eating. She hadn't really been eating since arriving here, maybe a few nibbles here or there but nothing else. No real hearty meal, despite majority of her favorite foods where prepared. She did not bother to.

She truly did miss the others. Holding her close, Angi walked her back to her room. Stopped feeling her move in his arms, just a bit. Heard her whimper slightly...their names slipped from her lips.

"They will return soon," he whispered. "you need not worry, Lady Harmony."

Reaching her room, find the door opened, no doubt from her. Walked in to her bed, laid her down softly. Pulled the covers over, Harmony woke, her eyes find Angi.

He noticed and smiled. "Good morning, Lady Harmony."

She blinked, no smile back. Sat up holding her rabbit, close as all ways. Mutter a solemn good morning back. Threw the covers back, swung her legs over and dropped out of bed. Walked by him, he followed. Stopped when she did at the door.

Her head dropped. "My family isn't back, yet?" She asked.

The few seconds of silence from Agni, gave her answer. Of they weren't back, why would they? Rubbing her eyes, stopping any tears from coming, held her head high. Turned around to Angi, he was ready for what came next. She'd blow up or stomp out the room or run like wind crying, he was ready for it, not for this...that surprised him.

Expecting a flatten frown, that some how seem mirror Ciel's stoic expression, turned upward, into a smile. A smile that halted his next course of action. Taken back by this, his mind quickly registered this...was it a ploy? He wasn't sure, he didn't want to think like that. But, it didn't leave his mind, it remained pushed aside.

He smiled back and bowed. "What a lovely smile you have one, Lady Harmony."

Her smile brighten more. "Thank you!" She gushed. "Sorry, if I didn't smile before. I wasn't happy, but, I'm happy now! Really happy!"

"Oh?" His eyebrows rose. "Why is that?"

Harmony said nothing, only giggled. Threw her hands up, jumped up and down. Agni knew what she wanted, and picked her up even with the snakes kissing her. She kept giggling. Even as they walked out her room, down hall, down the stairs all the way to the first floor. To the kitchen, where he sat her down. She kept giggling, whatever it was that brought on these giggles, it warmed Agni's heart. And he joined with her merriment. A merriment that filled the whole townhouse, the others woke from it, at first they weren't sure for a moment. But, Finnian and Snake knew, smiled. Snake more so a smirk. Quickly jumped out of bed and hurried to the kitchen.

Find Harmony sitting there with Agni, an upturned face, eyes sparkling and a laugh that seem to illuminate the natural sunlight coming in. Nearly brought Soma to tears.

Tears that were heard, Harmony turned her head to all of them. Shot a hand up and waved. "Good morning! Everyone!" She chimed.

A good morning it was going to be, indeed. The smiles that spread on the others faces, was exactly what needed to be seen, keeping her own up. Harmony keep it going, after all, she'd grown to wear it. As long as she smiled, then everything...everything would be fine.

The same thought crossed your mind, with a yawn, the sun was up and another work day began. You still had some time, before you had to head over to the Violet House as requested by their head. So, you decided to use this time to go and find Ciel, you still needed to tell him about today, what you heard yesterday at the Gazebo. What all those P4s said and, your cheeks flushed pink for a moment...what Edward said.

Yes, your thoughts recall the word he used, the exact word for some reason your heart hammered, and a brush of tinge red dusted your cheeks. That slowly burned to a near cherry red, you had to fan yourself just a little to cool yourself. This never really happened, before, you weren't sure why. There was some reason behind it...there had to be. Closed your eyes for a moment, Edward appeared in your mind, smiling at you with a hand held out. A hand for some reason...you itched to take. Slowly reach out, realize this was only in your mind, pull back open your eyes. Stare at your hand, your empty hand...touched your cheek lightly. They where warmer now and...move your hand to your lips, feel a smile. A soft smile on them, one that increased the hammering in your heart, spread your smile more...you giggled. Not just any giggle one that was light and...the last part you weren't sure. But, it felt good and well.

You couldn't stop smiling, it remained even when you finally located Ciel. Thank goodness, he about to start breakfast. Standing, you watch as the students..correction young gentlemen enter, they hadn't noticed you yet, standing with a folded coat jacket. Though you did notice a familiar face, that freckled-face boy. With the small, round classes on.

Shot a hand up and waved. "Excuse me!"

Ears heard you and heads along with a few eyes turned your in your direction, the boy's face dyed red, a few others too. But, mainly the young boy, whom you smiled at, calling for him again. To everyone surprise, even himself. Especially when you pointed at him and gestured for him to come over. All eyes fell on him, he swallowed, pointed to himself. You nod, how silly was he?

"Please, could you come here." in your polities and cherry voice asked. Even standing the part.

Wait for him to make his move and decision. Which was taking quite some time, so you decided to go over to him. The others wide eyes followed you, you paid them no mind and approached the boy. Bowed to him respectfully.

McMillian was sure he caught a whiff of Spring either from you or your hair, it didn't matter. The way your eyes brightly looked at him and the sound of your cheery voice that turned his ears red, was just...just...

He gulped again, you asked him something, he nodded and with a tug on his collar excused himself and went to do as you asked. You clasp your hands together, gush, thank him.

Inside, Ciel sat at the table wondering and looking for McMillian. Wondering where that boy was, he was sure he was right behind him. Also, what was this sudden murmuring about...some sweet maid? It seem contagious, thank goodness he wasn't effected by it, picked up a biscuit. One of hers, threw it back into the basket. Wiped his hands clean of it.

McMillian came over. Face the color of a tomato, a wet one, the poor boy was sweating for some reason. Ciel wasn't sure why. Asked. "Are you alright?"

"The maid needs you!" McMillian nearly blurted out, took a few breaths, calmed down the best he could. Cleared his throat. "Sorr-Sorry, the maid is asking for you. S-She'd" he twiddled his thumbs. "like to see you."

Not sure why, Ciel stood from where he sat. "Thank you. Why don't you sit down." He suggested, McMillian did just that. Taking a moment to make sure the young boy was breathing well and alright, Ciel left.

Popped his head out, looked around saw no one. Stepped out fully, surveyed the area carefully, still no one. Was McMillian mistaken? No, it didn't seem like it, the way the boy looked told Ciel it was urgent or it could just have been his redden face. Waiting another minute or two, saw no one. Turned walked back, a hand lightly tapped him on the shoulder.

"Ciel."

He stopped, back to them...to you. Took a few steps from you, creating some distance. It hurt, but you remain where you stood. Heavy and edgy silence filled the space and feelings between you both.

"C-Ciel.."you stutter softly. Take a slight step to him, he took two extra away from you. A part of you wanted to...to go and grab him in your arms, tell him over and over again..you...you were sorry. Truly sorry. If you could do anything to just...

"What do you want?" He said hard and cold as still, "I'm busy, you're wasting my time!"

Time, the whipped at you, you flinched slightly. Dropped your eyes to side. Nearly forgot why you came, managed to remember. Lifted your eyes to him, to his back...his cold back. Clear your throat tell him. "Ciel," you mind yourself not to take another step, saw his hand clench. "I," the words came out meekly. "wanted to inform you that yesterday I happen to over hear and over stay my welcome at the Swan Gazebo, where the P4 were and your name up."

That was interesting, he slide his eye back to hear more. You kept going. "They want you meet them there are 2:00 pm today an-"

He sighed hard. "I already know about that, you're a little late, plus I've been informed of the time from one of the P4s Fag. Hearing it from you, could easily be mislead information, I'd rather listen to someone willing to be right than someone who isn't fully honest."

The words cut deep. You thought you were bleeding.

"It's at 4:00 this afternoon. Not 2:00, you must have heard wrong."

But, you didn't, 4:00, that didn't sound right. You were right there, heard each of them agree to the 2:00. "Who told you this? The time? What was the Fag's name?"

Ciel said nothing, he wasn't going to. Except one thing. "If you have nothing else to say, then I suggest you get back to work. You don't want to steal time away from doing what you came here to do, now do you?" He walked off. Gave a dismissive wave. "When or if you have something interesting that is worth my attention, then and only then make yourself known. Until then, leave me be."

So, you did. Turn around, walked away. Bump into something firm. "Hey!" A voice.

Rubbing your noise, look up find a tall lean young man around Edward's age, with a deathhawk hairstyle, wearing dark eye make-up, piercing in his ears, and irritated scowl on, directed at you.

He seem upset about something, what you weren't sure. Until he said it with a finger pointed in your face. "You're late!" Grabbed you by the wrist. Pulled you with him. "You were suppose to be at the Violet nearly ten minutes ago. Since you weren't I had to come out here to find you, Violet requested you. The dark haired maid." He fumed. Threw up his free arm. "Keeping him waiting is rude you know!" He chided you. You said nothing, trying to keep your balance with his pulling. "Coming way out here to find you..."he mumbled to himself. "Psst, this is stupid...hone-"

"Hola! Mi Amigo!" A smooth cheerful voice called across the way.

Cheslock stopped, with a low growl. A hand rested on his shoulder. "What do you want Alejandro?"

Alejandro laughed heartily. "Ah, such a eccentric mi amigo. Can I not come and greet you?" He chuckled. "And-"He noticed you. Leaned in a bit. You quickly drop your eyes to the side. Hummed. "You..look...Who is you friend?" He asked Cheslock.

Who growled. "No one you need to know about, go back to your Green House. Okay? I've got things to do. Come on." He walked way, pulling you with him. Muttered under his breath the annoyance that Constatine. A name you knew, that surprised you.

Not as surprising at who the head of the Violet House, the one who requested you. Was the hooded P4, with the rather gloomy and gothic look. Stood at the door entrance, made you rather...unsettled. His violet eyes followed you. On the Violet House dorm grounds, up the path that lead to him.

"Here she is." Cheslock presented you. "She was walk out of the Blue House. Don't know why, but, anyway here." He held your wrist up.

Violet's eyes narrowed. Slide to Cheslock. "Let her go." He ordered. Cheslock did. Violet turned back to you. Just stared. It was unnerving. "Come." He told you, walking further inside the dorm.

You legs didn't move. So Cheslock helped you, he gave you a slight shove. You almost tripped. But managed to catch yourself. "Move it." He told you.

Shutting and locking the door.
