Hello! Lately I have had allot of things happening surrounding both school and home so I was struggling to find time to write. I have been writing this same chapter for the past 2 weeks. Hopefully everything has settled down a bit so I can get back to doing what I enjoy!
Chapter 13
Previously:
I take a sip of the water, "Are you sure your ok you look worse than I do?"
Noticing his attire and hair he appears to go red for a split second. I smile at him and take my sandwich and begin to eat it. Sebastian runs his hand through his hair in an attempt to unfriz it, "I am quite alright although I think I will refrain from sleeping for awhile."
I smirk, "Awww the pushover is also supper obsessed with there appearance, are you sure your a demon?"
He glares at me, "Anyway I saw a hole in the kitchen wall and things I need to get on with, see you tomorrow y/n."
I smile sweetly at him, "See you tomorrow Sebastian."
Now:
I awoke the next morning feeling energised and ready to go. I got up out my bed and went for a bath. I brought my clothing with me so all I had to do was dry my hair when I returned to my room. With my hair dry I finally make my way to the kitchen.
I enter the kitchen and find Sebastian as always preparing Ciel's breakfast. I smile at him when I enter and begin making everyone else some food, "Good morning Sebastian, Would you like any?"
He turns his head towards me, "If it is of no bother to you."
I begin to make everyone scrambled eggs. The kitchen is quiet and neither of is say much more. I complete the meal and as per usual Sebastian leaves to awake the others.
10 minutes latter everyone enters the room and begins to eat.
"Good to see you both are doing better, " Bard smiles at us and turns to me, "I'm surprised Sebastian and you got so wasted on a workday."
I glare at him, "I would have never drank anything had it not been due to your drinking game!"
Sebastian chuckles and turns to bard, "To be honest I am surprised I allowed myself to get in such a state. Although miss y/n here was quite amusing drunk."
I turn my death glare to Sebastian and whack him on the back, "Hey don't laugh at me! Your the one who got bored and drank the rest of the alcohol in the room!"
Sebastian runs his hand through his hair and smiles at me which in turn gives may-rin a nose bleed. I sigh and get up taking my plate to be washed. "Anyway Sebastian is it not about time you awoke Ciel?"
Sebastian takes out his watch and sighs, "You would appear to be correct y/n." He gets up and takes his plate over so I was wash it. He then walks over to the good cart and begins loading the food onto it. It amazes me how much food that frail boy can eat in one day. He then leaves the room leaving me with the others.
I notice May-rin cleaning her nose bleed and pass her a cloth, "You really need to be more careful May-Rin you know blood is really hard to wash out."
She nodes and smiles. Bard then smirks at me, "So y/n, how much do you remember of the other night?"
In that moment I die inside. I turn towards bard and try to smile, "Not much past the start of the drinking game, why are you asking?"
He laughs, "Just wondering if you remember you practicaly hanging off Sebastian the whole night."
Sebastian had said something about that... He continues, "you were stuck to him like a magnet. Had I not known better I would say you have a thing for him." I feel my cheeks go bright red. Wait what? I don't have a crush on that demonic pushover. He is just a friend nothing more!
Bard looks at me satisfied in his teasing. Finny smiles innocently at me, "She is blushing that means its true!"
I glare at the boys which causes them to cowar, "For your information I do not have a crush on him."
Bard shakes his head sniggering, "I'm afraid your face is telling me a whole other thing."
I intensify my glare with the aim of burning his head clean off, "I would agree Sebastian is attractive as far as guys go but that does not mean I wana go out with him."
With that I leave the room and head for the young masters study in hope of catching Sebastian and getting my chores sooner rather than later. As expected I meet him in the corridor as he exits the Ciel's study.
"Hey Sebastian can I have my list of chores please?"I walk over and smile at him.
"Your awfully eager today Miss y/n might I ask why?" He raises an eyebrow curiously and hands me a note.
"The others were annoying me so I assumed it was best I found myself something to do." I take a look at the note.
Y/n's to do list
1. clean every window in the manner
2. Change all the bedding in the manner
3. Clean the washing and put out to dry
4. Wash the floors
I look at him confused, "Are we expecting a visitor?"
Sebastian nodds, "The queen has asked that we investigate a serries of dissapearences surrounding a woman who goes by Lady Rose. The young lord thought it would be best to invite her to a small party to get to know who she is."
I freeze, I knew that one day I would have to see this woman again but I had hoped it had not been for very long time. I stand motionless with shock plastered on my face.
Sebastian notices this and softens his face, "Are you ok y/n?"
I begin to shake in fear as I attempt to form a sentance, "Do.. not let her come near the manner... She is Dangerous... She is a witch."
Sebastian's POV
She begins shaking and fear paintes her face. Without realising I reach out and hug her. Surprisingly she hugs me back but she begins to cry.
We stand like that for a few moments until she calms down. I give her a kind and sympathetic smile, "You shall have to explain this to The young master later but I will see to it the party is cancelled."
We continue to hug and I hear a faint thank-you. I sence the fear from her and although normally I would find amusement in it strangely I feel complete anger.
A few hours later
We parted soon after that and I informed The young lord of the sudden development. Although unimpressed he understood that something was amiss.
Unsure of y/n's mental state I kept a close eye on her. She completed tasks at her normal standard but took slightly longer and was too deep in thought to notice my presence.
Currently I am cleaning a sooty kitchen and preparing yet another replacement dinner. Once we finish cleaning Bard turns to me, "So what do you think of y/n?"
"She is a nice woman who unlike you 3 actually gets her work done and often does extra." I give him a stern look as I say the last part which seems strangely to unfaze him.
He smirks at me, "I think there is more than that. To be completely honest I think you are both secretly crushing on each other."
I shake my head, "I can assure you I for one do not have a 'crush' on her."
This only seems to provoke him even more, "mmmm? Well what do you think of her looks?"
I sigh, "Bard I do not see what my opinions of y/n have to do with food preparations. And I suppose for a woman y/n is quite attractive."
Finny then comes into the room and gighles, "She said the exact same thing about you Mr Sebastian."
So this is what she ment by they were annoying her.
I Finnish off the meal and gladly make my way out the room.
End of chapter 13
Sorry this chapter is so short. I am unsure wether to end the story as I had intended or make it a little happier. Sorry for the lack of good updates...
