A.N- Sorry about the last chapter being so short. I'll try harder to make my chapters a bit longer. Guess what? I got my first reviews within 1 hour! JUST 1! I was really happy. Shout out to fallenangel 234567 and wenduo! Thanks so much for commenting, it means a lot. Here the next chapter!


(Sebastian's POV)

The next thing I knew the sun was beating down on me. Or so it felt.

I opened my eyes to find it about time to wake the Young Lord.

'Did I sleep all night? All the way from lunch time yesterday?' I asked myself.

I sat up in my bed, but my vision went blurry and I became dizzy. 'Odd?' I thought.

I focused my vision and push my thoughts aside. 'Must be from sleeping so long…' I thought.

I got out of the bed, but when I stood, the whole room started to spin and my head started to feel light. On top of that I felt really warm and my throat was sore and sounded hoarse.

I gathered myself trying to think of a explanation. "It couldn't be… no if it were that I'd be a lot worse." I whispered to myself. "Must be a cold, nothing to stay in bed about. I do have a schedule to keep."

I undressed and changed into my daywear. I wiped the sweat off my brow that had built because I forgot to close my curtains. (A.N- So the sun was beating down on his fair skin, making him sweat. Or so he thinks.)

I cleaned myself up as well as I could, hoping the Young Earl wouldn't notice my ailments. (A.N- Including talking to himself so he didn't sound hoarse.)

'Just a cold. It'll be gone soon enough.' I thought heading out of my room down to the kitchen.

When I made it to the doorway, I heard a loud crash. The noise brought a dull ache to my head.

When I entered the room I found a very upset Meyrin. She noticed me and started to ball.

"I-I-I-I'm sorry Mr. Sebastian, yes I am!" She cried. I walked over seeing the mess she had made. She had again knocked over the china cabinet. Smashed glass, plates, and tea cups were scattered everywhere. Another mess I was going to have to clean. And surely there would be more.

I sighed placing a hand over my face. 'My head hurts…' I thought.

"M-Mr. Sebastian?" She asked slowly. I picked up my head and looked at Meyrin.

Slowly taking in a breath, I started to instruct her on what to do. "Go and get me the extra tea sets and plates." I said slowly.

She nodded quickly and ran off to do what I told.

"And don't drop them!" I yell as she exited.

Suddenly I heard yelling.

"PLUTO NOOOOO!" I heard Finnian yell.

Finny's yelling was coming from outside.

'Now what?' I asked myself.

When I made it outside Finny was riding on the back of the Phantomhive Demon Hound, Pluto, trying to get him to stop.

Pluto was trampling and scorching the Master's favorite white roses. It was a mess, which later I was to clean up. The roses were either trampled to dust or on fire. I quickly acted disciplining the dirty mutt.

I tied the beast to the side of the mansion with a chain the not even I could break. (It was made in hell, for situations like this one. To keep a demon trapped.)

When I finished, I returned the now damaged garden. Finny was putting out fires, at the same time crying.

I again sighed, this time feeling myself becoming tired.

"Finny, put the rest of the fires out. I'll clean up later." I instructed. "Yes, Mr. Sebastian!" Finny said saluting me.

'Why? Of all days to act up, is it today?' I asked myself.

I looked at the time. It was nearly 10 minutes until the master had to get up. 'Please let Bard mess up after breakfast…' I thought.

I came back to the kitchen to find Meyrin standing; three boxes balancing in her left hand.

"Thank you…" I said taking the boxes.

I opened the first one, getting out the tea cups and tea pot.

"Meyrin, hand me Master's favorite Earl Grey tea. And don't spill it!" I demanded, sounding very annoyed.

She did as told and handed me the tea. I prepared it and placed it on my cart.

I grabbed the handle and started to push the cart out of the kitchen and up to the Master's room.

(Ciel's POV.)

Light shined into my eyes, instantly waking me up.

"Young Master, it is time for you to wake." Sebastian called. I opened my eyes and sat up in my bed.

"Still feeling overworked Sebastian?" I asked.

He started to smile. "Not at all." He replied almost strangely. I felt something was wrong, but he was acting all the same, so I decided not to push the subject.

"Today's schedule includes a violin lesson, and dance lesson, then you have to review the crime reports from London. After that, you are free to do what you need." Sebastian explained.

"Very well." I replied. Sebastian picked up the tea pot and poured some tea for me. I excepted it as he begun to undress me and dress me in my daywear.

When he was buttoning my shirt I noticed something. I could feel heat coming from his hands, even when he was wearing gloves. 'Is his temperature higher than usual?' I asked myself. 'Maybe he's warm from cooking?' I asked.

"Is my breakfast ready?" I asked as he finished dressing me. "Not quite my Lord. Today I ran into problems with Meyrin and Finnian. I had to take care of their messes before cooking your breakfast. I'm very sorry my Lord, I will get to work on preparations as soon as I'm done here." He replied.

"Very well. Bring it to my study when your done." I replied with a annoyed sigh. 'I should let those three go…' I thought.

(Back to Sebastian's POV.)

By now my head ache had grown into a migraine. Every little noise, even the click of my shoes, made my head throb.

"This can't be a cold…" I whispered in a sigh. "But still, I have things to do…"

I slowly walked back to the kitchen. But right as I made it to the doorway I felt a tickle in my throat. This threw me into a coughing fit, which I muffled with my arm.

Afterwards I felt even more tired. 'I can't be getting sick… If I was, how would master react?' I thought.

I gathered all of my strength and pushed on. "I can't afford to get even more behind on schedule." I said picking up a knife and getting to work.

I loaded what I had made the Young Lord onto my cart and started to roll it up to his study.

I leaned heavily on the cart as I rolled it. I came to his study door, straightening my stance, I knocked on the door.

"Come in Sebastian." I heard the Young Earl call.

I opened the door and pushed the breakfast cart to Master's desk. I took everything off of the cart and places it on his desk.

Silently I stood behind him, watching him eat.

I looked at my watch. It was nearly 9:45. I was to start his first lesson (As he was the one who taught it.) in 15 minutes.

"Young Master, I don't want to rush you but your first lesson will start in less than 15 minutes." I said. "I will finish by then. I'm assuming you need to get it ready?" He asked. "Yes, my Lord." I replied bowing.

I walked out and prepared for his violin lesson.

X_X

"Crescendo my Lord…" I commanded. But he didn't listen. "This is a simple piece My Lord, yet you still struggle with it." I sighed. "It goes at this tempo." I said tapping the tempo out.

"I can't do it Sebastian. You chose hard sheet music. It's for someone at your skill!" He cried.

"Let my show you Lord." I said taking the violin.

I gracefully played out all if the notes and rhythms, playing all of the crescendos and decrescendos perfectly.

"See? It's for someone at your skill." Ciel complained as I finished playing. "Now you try my Lord." I said ignoring his complaints. "Start here." I pointed to a place in the music.

Ciel started to play, but was interrupted by a loud noise. It sounded like dynamite exploding.

I knew exactly what had happened. Bard had tried to cook with it again, probably destroying the kitchen, another thing I would have to fix.

Ciel ran out of his study and down to the kitchen where the noise had occurred. I followed close behind.

As expected their was smoke coming from the kitchen. Bard slowly made his way out; ash covering his whole body.

"Young Master, Mr. Sebastian!" He cried noticing us. "D-Did you hear that?" He asked looking scared.

"Bard, what did I tell you about cooking with dynamite?" I asked slowly. "Not to because it destroys the kitchen, but Mr. Sebastian, I thought it make lunch preparations go faster…" He replied.

"J…Just go on. I'll fix this mess." I said trying my hardest not to yell. I was at my wits end. On top of that I was only growing worse.

'My head hurts, my throat is so sore I can barely talk, and I feel as if I'm going to collapse… What else could go wrong?' I asked myself.

Suddenly if that wasn't enough I heard another loud noise.

Now clenching my throbbing head, I looked to the hallway it came from.

Meyrin was laying face first on the hallway floor, three boxes filled with tea cups and plates had gone smashing against the floor.

This pushed me further into frustration and sickness. Every little thing going on around me was making me feel worse.

As if this wasn't bad enough, Finny came running in screaming about a fire in the flower garden.

Now I had two servants freaking out, Ciel becoming more and more angry at me for not preventing all of this, and now (Because of all the noise.) a very loud, curtain mutt barking, trying to break the chain I had tied him to.

Everything was too much; I gradually became worse and worse.

"ENOUGH!" I yelled. I felt the energy draining from my body. "S-Stop all of this at… once." I said slowly.

"Sebastian what's wrong?" Ciel asked watching me noticing my changed tone in voice.

My legs gave way and I collapsed to the ground. Completely blacking out.
