"SE – BAS – TIAN, WHERE ARE YOU?" I bit my lip hard to prevent yelling. So, Grell and Pluto have decided to stay for a few days. I didn't mind Pluto, considering that he is adorable! But I can't stand Grell. He kept me up all night with his 'Sebby this' 'Sebby that.' IT WAS SO ANNOYING! "Ambrosia, who is in charge of the gardens today?" Alois asked, smirking. I looked up at him, my eyes narrowed. "Finnian could it," I said. "I haven't seen him do much work around here." "Hey! I DO WORK!" he shouted. I grinned.

"Almost ruining my room doesn't count as 'work.'" Finnian nodded and rushed to my garden. "Leonardo, I want my coat," I said. He helped me slip it on. "Where are you going, my mistress?" "I am going to keep Finnian Company," I said, smirking. "Don't come along, Leonardo." "I'll do as you wish, my mistress." I sat down on a bench, watching Finnian tend my winter garden with shaky hands.

What's up with him? I'm not yelling or anything so he should be calm. He snip the wrong twig and I had to bite my lip to prevent yelling. Finally, I stood up and walked towards him. I plucked the gardening thing out of his arms and tossed it over my shoulder. "Why are you scared, Finnian?" I asked. "I'm not anything to get you nervous."

"Whoever said anything about that?" he laughed nervously. Finnian turned around and he barely noticed that my face was neared to his. "Well, you're shaking." "I am worried about doing a bad job." My lips were finally an inched away from Finnian's own. "You shouldn't be," I said, pulling away with a smirk. "I really don't care how my garden turns up." "But you are always giving Kisa a hard time." I shrugged. "I really dislike my servants. They've been working at this manor for a long time and I began to hate them. Caroline is trying to kill me; Alexander once poisoned my food and Kisa once covered my bed in poison ivy. They hate me. Everyone hates me."

"What makes you say that, Ambrosia?" "Even with my contract, they fear me. I can't help it!" I fell back on a rosebush, ignoring the thorns that poked through my coat. "All the bruises that my parents gave me, all those hits, yells and even some blood, I deserved it! I shouldn't even be here!" He grabbed my wrist and pulled me up. "Don't say that, my lady." My eyes widened; black meeting blue. "Leonardo has told me about your past. Your mother hated you because you weren't a guy." I nodded, biting my lip and kicked some snow. "After I was born, they discovered that my mom couldn't have another child. That's why she abused me."

"Hey, Finni, I'm heading to the village! Want to join me?!" We turned around to see Bardroy standing at the door with his coat on. "Who is going as well?" "Mey – Rin, Caroline, Kisa, Pluto, Sebastian, and Claude, Leonardo, the masters, Hanna and the triplets are going to the village." "I want to come too!" I shouted, laughing. Grabbing Finnian's wrist, I ran to the door with the poor gardener running beside me. "Ah, my lady, you're coming with us?" Sebastian asked. I nodded eagerly. "The triplets are going so I want to go too!" "My mistress, your coat is ripped." My eyes widened and I looked down to see that my coat was actually ripped. "Finnian, what did you do?" Sebastian asked.

I saw the gardener begin to panic. Suddenly, I was brought close to Leonardo's chest, his arms around me protectively. "Did he hurt you, my mistress?" Leonardo whispered. "Should I do as our contract is instructed for me to do?" I shook my head, hoping to keep my voice low as the others were distracted. "No, I just fell on a rose bush and I guess my coat ripped because of that." "So it wasn't that clumsy gardener?" I shot my butler a small glare. "He isn't clumsy," I muttered. "Finnian isn't used to being outside a lot."

"Come on, you two! Quit acting like lovebirds and let's go to the village!" Alois shouted, smirking. We arrived at the town a while later. "Wow! Everything looks so nice!" Mey – Rin exclaimed. Finnian nodded eagerly, Baldroy laughed, my old servants were a bit uneasy, Hannah looked like she was happy and the triplets just stood in a straight line. Alois grabbed Ciel's and one of my own hands and ran down a path. "We'll be seeing you guys at three!" he shouted.

I had trouble keeping up with the eager blonde, tripping over my own feet. "Hey, slow down a bit!" I shouted. "I can't catch up!" He finally stopped and I landed face first in some snow. Alois was laughing; I knew he was because it kept ringing through my ears. "You are such an idiot!" Ciel helped me up and we both shot Alois a glare. "Are you alright?" Ciel asked. I nodded.

We walked through the village, not caring were to go. "Hey, you guys know that little café where they sell lemon cake, right?" I asked. The two nodded. "Let's go there!" The three of us ran off. But little did we know that we were being followed. "Oi, she could take care of herself, Finni," said Bardroy. Mey – Rin nodded in agreement. "We are here to have fun, Finni! Not watch your girl hang out with the two earls."

Finnian shot the two a sad look. "I know, but she is so adorable! Do you see what dress she's wearing?" he retorted. "The mistress always wears the best dress, Finni," said Mey – Rin. "This one shouldn't be different." Finnian stood behind a fruit cart, watching as Alois, Ciel and I walked into the café. "Kya, she is cute!" Mey – Rin cocked an eyebrow. "Finni, are you saying that you actually love the mistress?" His face turned bright red. "What, no! I don't like the mistress! She's a higher rank than me!"

"Um, I'll have lemon cake!" I chirped, smiling brightly. I thought I saw a blush on Alois' cheeks. "What about you guys?" I asked. "Order something, it's my treat!" Mey – Rin began to have a nose bleed. "Eh, did you hear the tone she used? It was almost as though she was begging!" "Ambrosia," Finnian whimpered.

We walked outside and I dragged the two to a different shop. "Oh look! They're playing chest!" I squealed. I grabbed a chair and dragged it to the table where two old guys were playing the game. "May I watch?" They smiled and nodded. I kept a close watch, my eyes following their every move. "You're the Knighthood's only daughter, right?" I nodded, not paying any attention to their words.

"Do you play chest, my lady?" I shook my head. "No, but I've watched my grandparents play it!" I chirped. My expression turned serious. "That is, when they were alive." I grinned. "I've always been found of the knight piece though!"

"Do you want to play?" That caught me off guard. "Pardon me?" "I asked if you want to play chess." "Um, no thank you," I said. "I've never played it, remember?" "There is a first time for everything" Ciel grabbed hold of my wrist. "I'll show Ambrosia how to play." He dragged me to a table. "But I wanted to play with the old guys!" I whined. "Why are do you have to be so mean?" He set up a game. "Shut up," he muttered.

A few minutes later…

I flipped the table over with a groan. "THIS IS A STUPID GAME!" (A/N If I offend anybody who plays chess then I'm sorry. I don't even know how to play it.) "You didn't teach me correctly!" Ciel let out a huff and crossed his arms. "Not my fault you are impatient." Alois was sleeping somewhere else at this moment. "I am too patient!" I shouted.

He grabbed my arm, pulled Alois up and dragged us out the doors. "LET GO OF ME! HEY! STOP SAYING WHAT I'M SAYING! NO, YOU STOP SAYING WHAT I'M SAYING!" Ciel sighed and threw us in front of our butlers. "Oh, my lord, it seems like you had to carry the Trancy earl and Knighthood earlene." "Yeah, I should never teach Ambrosia chess."

Pluto joined my side and rubbed his head against my right leg. "Aw, did you miss me?" He barked and panted. I smiled, patting his head and gave the demon dog/wolf a treat. "Here you go. You deserve it, Plu – Plu." The triplets and Hanna approached us. "How was your day, my lady?" Timber asked. I gave him a tight hug while giggling. "It was alright."

Alois' new servants and Ciel's own finally joined us. "So, who's missing?" Sebastian asked, pulling his master close. I smirked and walked towards my butler. "GRELL, WHERE ARE YOU? DON'T TELL ME THAT YOU LEFT YOUR ROMEO HERE ALONE!" I shouted. Oh, I love making fun of Sebastian. Said demon shot me a look.

"SE – BAS – TIAN DARLING, I'M SORRY FOR LEAVING YOU!" The shinigami attacked the poor butler. "Oops, I forgot that Grell wasn't invited. Sorry Sebastian. Hey! Let's go eat! I'm starving." "But we just ate," said Ciel. I smirked. "So? I eat a lot and hardly earn a pound. So this shouldn't be different. Let's go already."

A few hours…

My head rested on Canterbury's shoulder, deep in slumber, while he kept staring forward with his brothers. "Aw, Ambrosia looks cute when she's sleeping," Alois mused. Pluto was curled up on my feet, keeping them warm. Leonardo and Sebastian chuckled. "At least she isn't making a lot of noise." I opened my eyes and smiled up at Canterbury. "I want to be between Timber and Thompson." He nodded and moved me so that I was in between the two other demons, fast asleep.

"I like the mistress," Timber whispered, playing with my fingers. Thompson nodded in agreement, toying with my hair. "She is kind of cute." Hannah smiled. "Boys, when we get home put her in her bed. If she doesn't then she'll get a cold." The triplets nodded. Alois narrowed his eyes at Hannah. "Quit trying to flirt with her, Hannah," he said, standing up. "She's a girl!" The earl marched towards the maid, but I raised a sock covered foot and kicked him back to his seat.

"Go to bed, Trancy, don't talk to my maid like that. She didn't do anything to you," I muttered, curling up by Timber's side. "So shut up already." He huffed and crossed his arms. "Whatever." Leonardo smirked. "Yup, that's my mistress." I smiled to myself as Timber hesitantly wrapped an arm around me.

So, how was it? Please review and don't forget to post requests, please?
