It was a cat. She saw a cat as she was stepping out of the carriage and it startled her. This girl is fucking unbelievable. Like, seriously, who fucking sees a cat and screams.

And then this complete imbecile startled herself when she screamed and tripped over her own foot and landed on her ankle. This girl is an idiot, and this is just ridiculous.

Serves her right, criticizing Elizabeth for twisting her ankle, she did the same goddamn thing.

What makes it worse is that she didn't even introduce herself to either of them before they brought her into the house. Both of them, though suspicious to an extent knew that she was related to the Midfords in some way and therefore related to Aunt Frances.

This also meant that if they didn't treat her with the upmost respect and act as cordially as possible Aunt Frances would come for an actual visit.

It was only after Finnie had carried her in that she formally introduced herself and explained everything. And though both Ciel and Sebastian were both somewhat annoyed by her surprise arrival, they still acted cordially and politely towards her.

"I am quite sorry to be intruding upon you like this, but I was originally supposed to be arriving with Lady Elizabeth and she wished for it to be a surprise, and I am just so very filled with regret to be arriving like this."

Yea, sorry and filled with regret to be there.

"It is quite alright. I just wish you would have informed us before hand so that we could have readied the manor for the arrival of guests." At least he'd been spared from Elizabeth's arrival, for he loved the girl but she could be a little too much at times.

It was then that Augusta remembered the letter for some odd reason. She was thinking of the Earl Grey and suddenly the letter was in her head.

'The letter! I'd almost forgotten.'

Augusta then began to reach for it when she stopped. 'Why did he give this letter to me to give to the Earl? What's within the letter anyways?'

"May I ask if there is any place for me to freshen myself, I believe the weather has gotten to me."

Liar.

"Of course. Sebastian, please show her to the wash room."

"Thank you."

She opened the letter in the same instant the door closed and she was alone.

Goddamn this girl is stupid, she didn't even try to open it so that no one would notice it'd been opened. No, she just tore into the thing like she didn't have to give it to the Earl of anything.

She was met with scraps of newspaper and some writing on quite formal paper.

It read:

Rats are beginning to roost in the home. They are diseased and vicious vermin.

-Victoria

The Newspaper scraps were all articles about opium in England.

"Why would Charles give this to me to give to the Earl?"

Well, the Queen was probably feeling a bit sorry for Ciel and didn't want to sick Charles on him just yet. Charles is a bit of a handful and he already doesn't really like Ciel. Seriously girl, use your head.

"Oh no."

She finally realized what she'd done and that she was going to have to give the letter to the Earl. She couldn't simply just not give it to him that would practically be treason against the crown since it came from the Queen.

Well this shithead is in deep shit, ain't she.

Augusta peaked out of the room, hoping that the intimidating butler wasn't still lingering.

There was no sign of him. She then proceeded down the hall, trying to remain stealthy and unnoticed. She had remembered seeing the Earl's office as she was led to the wash room by Sebastian and was now going to simply slip these things on his desk.

She hoped she could leave before he found these things and even if he thought that it had been her who placed them there it would have been too late for him to do anything.

This was a seemingly perfect plan to her. The only thing was that she would have to be able to do all of this without being noticed.

She crept down the hall slowly and what she thought was silently. She entered the office and began towards the desk. She began to lay the contents of the torn envelope on the desk when she saw the many papers strewn upon the desk.

It was not ordinarily this messy, but Ciel had gotten a little behind in his work. If only Ciel had known that a nosy little Fiancée was going to visit him this day.

Augusta's curiosity got the best of her and she started to read some of the things that were on his desk.

Sebastian knew she was in his Master's office, going through his things. He had been standing outside the doorway for quite some time by now. Augusta hadn't even noticed him and his form was quite obvious.

He also knew that all the secrets she would uncover there weren't secrets at all. Nothing she found in those documents would be harmful to the Earl, but they would arise a small bit of suspicion.

Sebastian shifted his weight slightly and the floor creaked. Augusta was alerted by his presence and her eyes were wide as she looked upon him.

She was frozen in place and her face was red and heated.

"I see you have discovered my Master's office….and his documents." Sebastian then saw a few new papers on the desk, " and you seem to have intercepted his letters as well. I must say, none of this seems to be lady like at all."

"I'm sorry, so very sorry. Please forgive me and please do not tell the Earl or anyone else." Augusta's head was hung low and began towards the door but was intercepted by Sebastian.

Her head bumped his shoulder and she looked up at him. He had a devilish smile upon his face.

Her face turned red and heat radiated from her, she had never been in such a position with an attractive man before. She hated herself for feeling such a thing at this time and for such a person but she was just a 15 year old girl.

Her heart was young and could be won over by a few sweet nothings whispered to her. She was naïve and unable to control who she wanted and would be tricked by.

Sebastian knew all of this by the look on her face when she raised her head to look at him. She was vulnerable and seemingly willing to be used if she got a few sweet words or actions out of it. People of that nature were like dogs, fully willing to be controlled if they got some form of praise for doing so, and Sebastian's opinion of dogs was not high.

"I promise not to breathe a word, but only if you tell me everything you know."

You both are liars.

His smile broke her and she looked away from him and at the floor, hoping she could escape the whole situation just by this simple gesture.

Sebastian fingers grasped her chin and pulled her back to his gaze. She was no longer unsure and told her all of her actions and even about the letter.

We both know that Sebastian squealed like a little piggy when Augusta left. Like seriously bitch, don't trust him. Man, this OC fucking Foolish.
