H-hello. ;;w;; I've got some bad news.
I've burned my hand pretty badly saving a baby from a tragic house fire (straightening my hair and f***ing up), and needless to say, typing isn't all too easy. Luckily, I already had this all typed up, so it was ready to go! ^^ You're welcome! XD
Anywho- I'm going to try my best to update this, but typing with one hand is not too much fun, if I do say so myself. So please forgive me if my next update takes more than a week! ;;A;; I'LL TRY MY BEST!
Warning: Even though I promised myself I would never do this, I totally did it - I added an OC. D: I personally HATE OC's, but I added him for the sake of the plot! FORGIVE ME! My stupid OC has left me in despair! *grabs noose*
And also, I keep forgetting to add this:
DISCLAIMER: I do not own Kuroshitsuji, nor have I ever claimed to. o.o *sweat* I really don't see the point in saying that..
Anyway~ Enjoy the meal!
The next day, Ciel arrived back at school. He still felt weary due to the events that occurred the previous day, but overall felt batter.
Sebastian had told him that - although it was extremely rare - demons could get ill, although it was nearly impossible for illness to kill them, or severely harm them. Ciel sighed, remembering how angry he had been at Sebastian for not telling him sooner. After all, Sebastian had had 200 years to do so.
Ciel trudged down the hallway, a vein popping out of his forehead due to irritation. He was so focused on the irritating Sebastian that he didn't hear the footsteps running in his direction.
"Ciel!" Ciel felt a hand slam hard onto his back, nearly knocking him over, and a laugh follow after. "Are you feeling better today, Ciel?" Alois asked. Ciel turned to the boy, perturbed.
"Ask me that before you hit me!" Ciel fumed. Alois only chuckled in response. "But yes, I am feeling better." Ciel said, now calm. Alois smiled.
"Good! Because I was really worried about you." Alois said, in a sickeningly sweet voice. Alois suddenly grabbed Ciel's hand and began leading him toward a staircase. "Yesterday, after you left, Mrs. Tuckerson appointed me your guide! She was going to have the principle do it for you yesterday, but then you left, and he's busy today, so now it's my job." Alois stopped for a moment and pulled a paper out of his purple three ring binder, "This is your schedule. We have all classes together except for first and second period, which is Language Arts and Reading. I can show you to that classroom now, and I can probably show you a few others also, although if I don't get to that, I'm in your class to show you anyway, so it won't matter." Alois smiled.
He grabbed Ciel's hand once again and guided him up the stairs. Ciel's face flushed slightly. 'Alois acts much too friendly..' Ciel thought to himself.
Alois guided him to a classroom and opened the door. A young, plump lady with short brown hair and big brown eyes turned around and greeted the newcomers with a large smile.
"Ah! You must be Ciel...I did pronounce your name correctly, right?" When Ciel nodded, the lady laughed. "Good! Because I'm so bad with pronouncing uncommon names. Anyway, I'm Mrs. Books. I'm going to be your Reading and Language Arts teacher from now on." Mrs. Books looked over at Alois, and Ciel thought he saw her smile waver. "I see you've already begun making...friends." She said unsteadily. Alois beamed.
"Yup! Me and Ciel are already really close friends, right Ciel?" Alois threw an arm over Ciel's shoulders and pulled him close, smiling at him. Ciel stuttered for a moment, getting over the shock of being so close to Alois so suddenly.
"A-as if! I barely know you!" Ciel tried shrugging Alois's arm from around his shoulders, but Alois was determined, and kept his arm there.
"Ahhh! You're so cruel, Ciel~!" Alois laughed, and turned his attention back to Mrs. Books. "Well, I'm going to show Ciel a few other classrooms before school starts, so bye, Mrs. Books!" Alois waved at her and began leading Ciel out of the room.
"Ciel, if you have any questions at all, feel free to ask me!" Mrs. Books called to his retreating back. Ciel gave her a small "okay", but it was so quiet that it would be amazing if even Alois heard it.
Alois showed him to the math room, and the science room. Neither of the teachers were present, because they both had only afternoon classes. Those were the only two rooms Alois showed him to before the bell rang. Alois and Ciel parted ways to go to their lockers. Ciel had no problems opening his locker, which seemed to amaze the person with a locker next to his.
"I always have issues opening my locker, even now." Laughed the boy beside him. "Guess I'm the only one?" It was somewhere in between a question and a statement, and Ciel only acknowledged it with a sideways glance. "I'm Nick, by the way." Ciel slammed his locker shut, his black, light-weight binder cradled in his arms. He took a quick second to observe the boy. He was tall, with straight brown hair that reached just below his ears, and was very muscular. The thing that stood out the most though was his eyes. They were a piercing light green, a color that would take any girl's breath away in an instant. All in all, he was very attractive.
"Nice to meet you, Nick. My name is Ciel Phantomhive." Ciel introduced himself, bowing slightly. This was a more formal introduction than Nick had been expecting.
"No need to be so formal, little dude." Nick laughed. "I actually already knew your name. Everybody has been talking about the new transfer student. Although, everybody thought you were a girl, because your name sounds so feminine." Nick said, obviously not trying to offend Ciel, but that didn't mean that he didn't. Ciel glared at him.
"Yes, my name is rather feminine." Ciel said, smiling, although there was venom in his voice.
"Oh, sorry. I wasn't trying to offend you." Nick said. His expression then turned playful, flirtatious almost. "The last thing I would want to do is offend the transfer student." Nick started playing with Ciel's hair. Ciel smacked his hand away and took a step away from the boy.
"I have to get to class. It would be embarrassing if I was late on my first day." Before Nick had a chance to reply, Ciel turned around and took off - although he was sure to go at a human pace.
Ciel entered the classroom swiftly, and Mrs. Books greeted him almost immediately.
"Hello again, Ciel. I just wanted to tell you beforehand that I'm going to be introducing you to the class. So don't sit down just yet, I want you to stand up here when I introduce you." Mrs. Books said. Ciel just nodded, not really caring.
They waited for everybody to come into the classroom and take their seats before she clapped her hands twice to get the class's attention.
"Alright, class! Before we start our lesson, I would like to introduce you to our new transfer student, Ciel Phantomhive!"
The entire class gawked, probably surprised that the new transfer student wasn't female. Ciel heard a few of the guys in the class release a disappointed sigh, and he heard the girls squeal in delight, with a few comments from them here and there such as, "He's so cute!" or "If he was taller, I would SO date him!"
Ciel felt his eye twitch. Yes, if only he was taller, but unfortunately for Ciel, because his body aged much slower than that of a humans, it would probably be another 100 years before he finally hit his growth spurt. That was definitely a downside to being a demon.
"Hello. My name is Ciel. Pleased to meet you all." With that, Ciel walked to an empty seat near the window, and sat down gracefully. Whispers filled the classroom, and Ciel could feel all eyes on him. He easily ignored the glances, and stared lazily out the window.
Class started. It was rather boring, considering Ciel had already known all of the material being presented to the class. The year would be a breeze. About 30 minutes into the class, the door burst open. Nick quickly walked into the room.
"Sorry I'm late, teach! I had an appointment this morning, and then some other shit happened." Nick explained. The teacher gave a look of disapproval.
"Please watch your language, Mr. Wood. Just because this is high school does not mean you have a free pass to say whatever you please. Now, would you please take a seat next to the transfer student." The teacher said firmly.
"Sure thing." There was a smirk plastered on Nick's face as he walked down the isle of desks. High fives were exchanged between Nick and some of the guys in the class.
"Haha, great excuse, dude!"
"So, who'd ya bang this time?" A blond boy asked. Nick chuckled.
"Nobody important. Just Lizzy from Mr. C's class." Nick replied, his pride shining brightly on his face.
"Please hurry to your seat, Nick. Quickly. Before I give you a Friday detention." The teacher said, irately.
"Yes ma'am!" Nick yelped, as he sprang to his seat. Some of the guys laughed. After that, the class began to trudge along once again.
"Oi. Transfer student." Ciel felt somebody poke his shoulder. It was Nick, of course. "What do you think of the class so far? Pretty boring, huh?" Nick asked. Ciel said nothing, and continued to stare blankly out the window. Nick continued. "So, how about we meet up after school or something? We can go chill at the football game, and I can introduce you to a few friends of mine. What do you say?"
"Whatever." Ciel replied. He just wanted to get the guy to shut up.
"Cool! I'll meet ya at your locker after eighth period." Nick said. The bell rang, and everybody got up from their seat hurriedly, determined to get some socializing done before the bell rang for second period. Nick came up behind Ciel, and rested his hand on his shoulder. He leaned in close, until Ciel could feel his breath on the back of his neck. "I can tell that we're going to be great friends." Nick whispered into Ciel's ear. Ciel felt the hairs on the back of his neck stand up, and he could feel his face begin to flush. Ciel turned around to tell the boy off for getting so close, but he was already gone. Ciel sighed, and trudged out of the classroom. It was already starting to feel like a very long day.
I know, it wasn't very interesting. ;;w;; Please forgive me. But I promise, next chapter will be more interesting! w
Please, review, and tell me if I should bump this up to a Mature rating! If you think I should keep the rating at Teen, then please post that too! ;;w;;
I hope you enjoyed the meal~
