The next morning, I awoke to my curtains being pulled back.
"Nnng...five more minutes," I mumbled, turning so I was no longer facing the glare of the sun beating through the windows.
"I'm afraid I can't let you go back to sleep, Lady Katelynn. You must get out of bed so you may prepare of the ball later!" Mey-Rin said in her usual chipper tone as she got me out of bed and dressed.
That day, I was wearing a soft, faded yellow dress that reached mid-shin. On my legs were black stockings, only coming to my knees, and in my feet were white flats. Mey-Rin pulled my long, deep blue hair into a braid, adding a white bow to the end when she finished.
"There! Now you look splendid! Your breakfast today is scrambled eggs, toast, bacon, and orange juice. Please enjoy!"
Mey-Rin left the room, allowing me to eat in silence. Once I was finished, I walked over to the window and looked out of it. I had a view of the front garden, as well as the road that led to the manner.
I lost track of the time I spent, looking at the beauty that surrounded the manner, so I jumped when there was a knock on my door.
"Milady, it is time to prepare for the ball. Mey-Rin shall be in to help you dress and fix your hair momentarily." Sebastian said, looking at me just standing by the window.
Moments later, Mey-Rin entered the room, holding an elegant dress.
"Milady, I shall help you prepare for the ball!"
Almost two hours later, I was standing in the mirror, looking at a girl I didn't know.
My blue locks were tied together in two elegant buns, both with a little bit of hair swinging free from them. My waist was being pinched by the corset under my dress, which was irritating me. The dress I was wearing was a deep, sapphire blue, a rival in color to Ciel's own eye. My legs had white stockings, and my feet were held captive by a pair of low-heeled, black shoes.
My face had powder on it, which made me look like a China doll, and my eyes looked larger due to the eye-liner and mascara that had decided to make my eyelids and eyelashes their homes. my cheeks were a dusty rose, thanks to the rouge that was placed there. And finally, my lips were red, covered in lipstick.
"You look amazing!" Mey-Rin cheered as she admired her handiwork.
"Thank you for helping me, Mey-Rin!" I said, smiling a brilliant smile at her.
"Oh! I almost forgot! Here-" she handed me an elegant pair of white gloves, "put these on!"
I did as I was told, and slid the gloves onto my hands.
Just as I finished putting the gloves on, and adjusting them, a knock was heard on the door.
"Milady, it is time to leave."
I followed Sebastian down the grand staircase, and into the main hall.
There, waiting for both Sebastian and I, was a girl dressed in a pink and black dress, hair up in two pigtails that elegantly curled. Only one of her eyes were visible, and it was the eye of Ciel Phantomhive.
"Ciel, you look really cute! You really do look like a girl!" I said, trying to cheer him up.
He only looked angry.
"We should go if we are to make it on time." he said, walking towards the doors or the estate, Sebastian and I following.
A/N: I know I said that the ball would be this chapter, but I am really tired, and facing some writers block at the moment.
kisses!
