-Flaskback-
He blew into her ear softly and Chirstabel cried out in surprise. She grabbed onto her red ear and stammered some unaudible words. To him, she was not just amusing, she was also fast at learning and last but not the least, she will soon be caught into a big sticky spider web if she still doesn't want to go back home.
-End of Flaahback-

Normal Pov
Before Chrisabel had the time to react to what Sebastian did to her, he pushed her out of the kitchen with his inhuman strength, which Christabel could obviously not win against her own. All she could do was grumble in annoyance as she rubbed her redish ear on shame and she reluctantly picked the rubbish bags up, her nose all wrinkled up and her face directed a disgusted look towards those smelly trash bags.
Yuck! She stomped her way out of the kitchen and slammed the sliding door shut. Before she left and went outside the mansion, she felt like doing something really stupid. She did a very childish action, even though she knew that it was real childish but she just could not restrain herself. She swore that if she didn't do it, her name would not be Christabel Defille! She stuck her pink muscle out of her mouth in a hast and before she managed to roll it back into its cave, the raven male came out.

Chirstabel fought a creeping blush and had to face away from the brow-rosed butler. Why is it that her timing is ALWAYS wrong when she wanted to do very stupid things, and that he ALWAYS sees her doing so, was what that ran in her confused head the moment she cooled down a little.

"Great timing seb oil... What do you want? I am throwing it out. You don't have to come out and make sure I that I will d-"

He just sigh and placed his gloved finger on her lips and she growled and glared. Why can't he just leave her alone? He dug in his pocket, only to find one small silky bag of something. He gladly passed the whole thing to Christabel and he instructed her to buy some Earl Grey tea leaves back after throwing the rubbish out. She snarled and grumbled immediately when the news flooded to her but she groaned before nodding. What could she do anyways? Be defiant and get kicked out into the streets? Not a favourable option. So, all she can do is: Do nothing, absolutely nothing, but to listen to the dark meanie and the short one...
He also mentioned that he would be providing a carriage for her as transport, and that made her less angry. At least she did not need to travel by foot. Who knows how long the trip would last, after all, the Phantomhive's estate is really deep in the wilderness and super far away from the city.
By the time Sebastian disappeared into the kitchen to tidy things up, Christabel was already outside the door. She shield her eyes away from the glaring heat and she thought about why the sun was nasty to her as well. She kept thinking about why she was here, and not back at home after the accident but nothing seems to make sense. Was she brought back by fate?

"Miss Christabel! Hiii! Nice to see you here again!" Chirped a cute voice, interrupting the raven from her deep thoughts. The voice obviously belongs to the young and cheerful blonde, Finny.

He grinned widely at her, showing her his straight rows of white, pearly teeth and she sub-consciously smiled with him too. They chatted a little while leaning on a huge tree trunk.
Their conversation was filled with laughter and joy, but it was cut short as Christabel knew that she had to be going. The trash wouldn't just run into the dumpster and sit there with no one assisting it.
Plus, she could practically feel the burning sensation coming from the window. The blazing glaze that person directed his eyes to Christabel really made the raven girl feel uncomfortable, not to mention, she feel as though her head has already been lazered off by the glare she received.
Finny pouted a little when Christabel stood up to leave, announcing that she had a job to be done, but he knew better than to interfere Christabel when she was on a job requested by Sebastian. The consequences would be horrifying so he just let her go.
He really enjoyed talking to her, laughing together with her and playing around with her even though they have not known each other for barely 3 days! Christabel was nice and funny in his opinion and he really liked the way she smiles. It cheers him up to see her happy. Before she got up from her position, the cheerful blonde decided to tell her about how she looks in her outfit.

"Please wait a moment Miss Christabel! I want to... Want to tell you something..."

She stopped, turning to Finny and giving him an encouraging smile for him to continue, and that boosted his confidence a little.

Here goes nothing...!

"I really... Really like your outfit! It looks very pretty on you! You look really nice! I-I mean, the outfit is pre-pretty..." He mumbled as he played with his fingers nervously.

At that remark, Christabel almost fell. Like, literally tripping over and falling. Really? And she always thought that her sewing skills isn't that good. She was pretty? Really? Alfrend the bastard has never once told her how pretty she is. Because of that, she perked up a little at Finny's thoughtful comment, grinning sheepishly with a light blush towards him, which he gladly returned.
She got up and dusted herself from the dirt that collected on her dress and she then began look towards the window, waiting not so patiently for the butler in black to come out of the kitchen. He sure took his time, and that really pissed Christabel off.
As for Finny, he continued to lay flat with his back on a huge tree trunk, before closing his eyes to let the breezing wind caress his face. The moment his pair of eyes closed, an image of Christabel smiling shocked him up, making him fall on the ground, face first. He groaned, before a dark red blush sneaked onto his face. He panic and ran into the house, crying out in confusion and embarrassment as he began to search for his other two friends, or companion if you would say, to ask them for their help.

Christabel's Pov
I began to feel a tick mark forming on my forehead, and it is still growing by the second. Why in the freaking world must I go to town, which is probably 100 of miles away from this crazy mansion just to throw junks away?... And buy tea leaves!? I want to go home! I don't want to stay here anymore! Though there are people here who are nice, like Finny and -...

The moment I thought about the little cheerful blonde, I heard a distant cry, and a flash of yellow past by me, leaving me dumbfounded and shocked. That... Definitely was Finny. I sweat dropped, and then went back to find where that butler guy would be. He could have gone there himself, so why bother making me go there? Maybe he wants to by train me as a caretaker? Whatever... I will just have to throw the junk out, buy tea leaves and head right back here, to the place which is considered as the 'safest' for now.

Finally, when Sebastian arrived in front of me, he was looking like how I first saw him: clean, neat, tidy and flawless. Perfectionist bastard... He dug into his pocket, and held out a dangling shiny object before he gracefully place the thing on my hand. It was really cool to the touch and I realised after a few moments that it was actually a pocket watch! I can't believe it! It is sooo awesome to carry such a cool object around me. To this that the bastard was generous enough to give me his precious pocket watch! Maybe he is not so bad after all...

"The carriage will be arriving in a few minutes time. Remember, get rid of the bags and dispose them properly before dropping by to the tea stall and ordering Earl Grey tea leaves, is that clear?"

I just nodded and rolled my eyes. He really sounds like a broken recorder, repeating the same old stuffs continuously without break. Of course I would throw those bag of disgusting thingys away properly, then proceed to buy the leaves. I. Am. Not. A. Little. Child. Anymore. For. His. Freaking. Information.

"It will be arriving in 5..."

He whipped out another classy pocket watch and I face palmed.

"4..."

So he did have extra pocket watches after all, no wonder he was so kind... Not that she really have the mental state to think so much right now.

"3..."

My grip on the bags tightened considerably in boredom and I began to space out.

"2..."

"Why are you so sure that it would come at-"

"1..."

"-the moment you fi-"

"0..."

The number left his mouth silkily and as if on cue, the carriage stopped right beside me, the sudden halt made the dead leaves on the ground fly around. Sebastian gave the carriage driver a small nod before he generously creaked opened the side door for me, a faint smile danced on his lips and I could not help but wonder why he was smiling. Oh darn, whatever!

I think that the safest way is to shut my fat mouth and don't speak in case I embarrass myself, throw those darn black bags away into the dump and get Earl Grey tea leaves, the best quality ones and get myself back here to this mansion in one proper piece.
"I wish you a safe journey ahead Christabel. Take care." Sebastian called out as he bowed a little, showing respect to me even though I am just a lowly weird maid, who just came here for no logical reason and was willingly allowed to settle down here because of Ciel's short temper and rash answer...

I peered out of the window, as I watch the stilled trees and greenery slowly turn into blur shades of different green before I let out a heavy sigh. Let's just hope the little trip wouldn't turn into something out of hand.

Normal Pov
The moment after the carriage was out of sight through the window at Ciel's study room, He called out for Sebastian casually. In a split second, loud echoes of knocks bounced off the room before the raven butler's young master gave his consent to let his butler enter the room.

"Young master, I believe you called for me?"

"Yes. Sebastian, tell me-"

Ciel's hands were tangled together as his leaned back was slowly hunched, with his elbows on the table and his chin on his fingers, he stared directly into wine-red eyes.

"-tell me about what you found out about Christabel, I command you."

The raven's once emotionless expression began to twist and change, and he bowed lowly with respect, a hand over his heart as his lips were tugged up high, but not high enough to allow Ciel spot it.

"Yes, my lord."
