I have found that my chapters are getting shorter. I don't own the original Kuroshitsuji story line, or characters.
Chapter 4
Carmela had decided she liked being a maid. The other people in the house were nice, and they took care of her. She avoided the butler as much as possible, seeing as he had a strange affection for cats. Meyrin was very nice, she just was incapable of doing things right around Sebastian. Finny and Bard were entertaining to be around, just dangerous things went on around them too. Carmela found herself spending lots of time with Tanaka, the old man. They would sip tea together when she wasn't working. She often wondered where he got his sinecure but didn't want to sound rude. She enjoyed serving Ciel, often bringing up his tea or desserts for him so Sebastian could clean up Finny's messes. After a week of working Carmela realized she needed to take a day off. While dusting some antique furniture she noticed a few things that she needed to fix.
...
"Master Ciel?" Carmela knocked on the young boys office door.
"Come in." Was a bored reply.
"Master Ciel, I was wondering if maybe I could take tomorrow off. I know I have only been working a week, but I have...woman problems."
The look on Ciel's face was priceless. At first Carmela thought she would feel guilty about lying to her master, but she had trouble stifling her laughter. "Oh of course. T-t-take as m-much time as you need."
"Thank you." Carmela bowed her head, trying to hide her grin, as she left.
...
Carmela woke up entirely too early for Sebastian's liking. He didn't need to sleep, but when Ciel ordered him to follow the new maid around, make sure she wasn't evil or anything of the likes, the butler at least hoped for a few minutes of rest. He silently tailed the caramel haired maid out the back door, waiting a moment so he wouldn't be caught. But when he stepped into the garden, the woman had disappeared. Even Sebastian's heightened demon senses couldn't find the woman. How was he to explain this to Ciel.
...
The second Carmela was outside, she ran, transforming into her cat form as she went. She let out a ferocious meow. Feeling the freedom of being in her other form. Unlike demons and other beings, if Carmela waited too long, she would change involuntarily. She wanted to conceal her identity from her new family for as long as possible, especially Sebastian and Ciel. If she had to choose, Meyrin and Tanaka would find out first. Leaping elegantly onto a wooden fence, Carmela passed by a ranch. She bothered some cows and goats, not entirely human from her prolonged transformation. She swatted at flies and cleaned herself. Then she chased some mice around. After hunting and wandering for a time. Carmela went back to the manor. She had always wanted to spy on her master, even though she knew it was wrong.
Sorry for all the craziness, chapter 5 should be here tomorrow. Now the story will pick up some pace. And some of my favorite characters from the anime will present themselves in a new light. Except for Lau, he will always be a perverted drug addict. :)
