CielxLizzy- A love that never dies
Part 2
Lizzy pov:
"How's your tea Lizzy did Claude make it sweet enough for you?" Alois asked letting his gaze wonder over me. "Yes it is lovely thank you Alois" I replied not meeting his eyes. I regret leaving Ciel now but he really did hurt me and now I know he doesn't love me so really why should I stay with him… "Lizzy?" "Oh huh sorry I dazed out" I mentally smacked myself does do that in front of Alois he's an earl like Ciel is. "Is something bothering you Miss Lizzy?" Alois asked sympathetically softly trailing his hand up my arm and resting it on my shoulder. I remained still, "No I am just fine" "Perhaps my news will cheer you up?" I looked up at his grinning face, "News?" "I'm holding a masquerade ball" he told me motioning with his hand to his butler to pour him some more tea. "A masquerade ball!" I squealed "I love ballroom dancing and the music and dresses and…" I couldn't contain my excitement. "I'm glad you're pleased Lizzy I even had Claude prepare you're outfit..."
Ciel pov:
"Damn it all" I cursed annoyed and hurt, "How can I have lost my fiancée to that annoying creep Trancy!" "Perhaps you could win her back master?" Sebastian suggested as he walked into the dining hall with my afternoon lunch. "How do you suppose we even get into the trancy manor to do that?" I asked him placing both my hands on my head in despair. "Earl Alois is holding a masquerade ball" answered Sebastian handing me an invitation. "He invited us?" I sounded confused. "I suspect Alois wishes to boast about how he has Miss Elizabeth" "I'm not rising to his level of childishness" I threw the invitation on the table and reached for a sandwich. "As you wish young master" responded Sebastian leaving me to eat in peace. No sooner had I taken a few mouthfuls of my sandwich that my phone rang. Who's ringing me now I'm eating I wondered as I yelled for Sebastian to answer the phone. "Master it's for you" oh? I arose from the table and picked up the receiver from Sebastian's hand. "Ciel speaking" "Hello Phantomhive..." I gripped the phone tighter rage boiling inside of me. "Trancy…" "Yes it's me I was wondering if you got my invite." "You mean to that dumb ball of yours? Yeah I got it!" He practically squealed down the phone, "Great and are you coming?" I sighed impatiently. "I have work to do Trancy so no I am not!" "Aw is Ciel being a spoil-sport" "Excuse me?" He laughed. "You heard me" "Know what Trancy I…" He stopped me mid-sentence. "Why don't I compose a challenge?" I breathed in, "Challenge what challenge?" "Come to the ball and dance with Miss Elizabeth the best dancer can keep her" Outrage filled me again. "She's my fiancée and she isn't a trophy to be won!" "Oh I know but looks like she's already mine..." That's it. "Alright fine I accept your challenge but don't cry if you lose!" I slammed the phone down. "Master?" Sebastian asked giving me a questioning look as he re appeared in the room. "Were going" "Going where young master?" "To the stupid Trancys ball get me my best outfit…"
