NyaChi: Hello! I've always wanted to do one of these, but I've never known what to say. I'm so excited! :3

Grell: Well, it took you long enough to update.

NyaChi: Shut up, Grell! You're not even in this story, yet, at least. I don't know if you'll ever be in it. Plus, I like Lizzy way better than you.

*Lizzy appears*

NyaChi: Lizzy *glomps*

Lizzy: Hello! *is glomped and giggles*

Grell: Then what am I supposed to do then?

NyaChi: *glares while still hugging Lizzy* You can do the disclaimer.

Grell: Fine. NyaChi does not own Black Butler. If she did, there would be more Lizzy.

NyaChi: And you know it!

Chapter 2

(Ciel's Pov)

As Sebastian and I entered, I tried to picture the person that I was about to meet. Most family heads were the eldest man in the family, but there are some exceptions. A man was what I expecting, but I was sure wrong.

At the back of the room against a window, there was a desk painted blue, and sitting behind it was a girl that looked younger than me. She had deep and bright blue eyes, and her hair was up in two corkscrew pigtails like Lizzy's. Her eyes were looked bored like mine usually do, but right now, mine were shocked. She also had on a frilly, white, and blue dress. "You're the head of the Chandler family?!" I asked.

The girl looked up from something on her desk, maybe a book. She said in a bored voice, "Currently." She closed the book and got up. She walked around her desk to stopin front of me. The she continued, "My name is Katie Chandler, and I am the current head of the Chandler family and president of the Chain toy company. It's a pleasure to meet you, Ciel Phantomhive. I already know that you are the head of the Phantomhive family and the president of the Fantom toy company."

I was shocked at first, but I soon regained my composure. "You sure know a lot," I said in response.

"I like to know everything about my allies and opponents before I get involved. I want to make sure that they won't turn on me. Many adults don't have enough logic to do that. Wouldn't you agree that that is their greatest flaw?" Katie explained, ending in a question.

"Many kids don't have that logic either."

"I guess we're lucky then. I know almost everything aabout you, including the fact that Sebastian is really a demon. Don't worry, though. I won't tell anyone," she said.

"What? How do you know about that?" I asked, completely surprised. Even though she wasn't smiling on the outside, I could tell she would mentally smile everytime I was shocked and it showed.

"I have interesting ways of aquiring the knowledge I want, and please, don't go snooping around my place. Even though I know yours, I would like my secrets to stay secrets. I shall know if you've tried snooping; I keep my secrets very well protected," Katie explained, not smiling at all. She hadn't smiled once. Kids weren't usually like that. Also, she seemed to know everything about me while I knew nothing about her. Why didn't I looked up at least the Chain company before coming here?

"Now, I'd say it's about time for dinner, wouldn't you say?" Katie asked.

I was getting a bit hungry now that she mentioned it, but I wouldn't let her know that. "I guess so," I mumbled and turned my head slightly towards Sebastian.

He understood me almost instantly and gowed. Before he turned and left, he said politely, "Excuse me."

Sebastian's POV

I hurried to the kitchen. We had passed the dining room on our way to our rooms,l so I knew that the kitchen couldn't be far away. I slipped across the dining room and in a door. It was indeed the kitchen. Josephene was already in there, slaving over a hot stove. it made me happy to see her running around cutely. That was when she funally noticed me.

"I'm sorry, but I'm a little busy right now," she said, not looking me in the eye.

She must still be embarrassed about the accident in the hall. How cute! I thought. I shook my head and replied, "I have come to help."

"You are a guest. It is my job is to provide food for the people in this house as long as they are here."

"it is my job to provide meals for my young master. I insist."

For a while, Josephene glared at from the conner of her eyes. Then she sighed and said with a smirk, "Fair enough. You may help."

Then I smiled and walked up beside her. "So, what are you making?" I asked.

"Just a few slmon fillets. Young mistress Katie has never liked anything too fancy," Josephene explained as she was setting a timer.

"It seems like you've known her forever. Have you?"

She seemed to stiffen at the question, but after a bit, she relaxed and smiled at me. "No," she replied. "Not forever. I started working here when she was just four, but ever since I can remember, she's never taken a liking to anythign formal or fancy."

"So, I guess there'll be no parties of dances."

"Young Mistress Katie has always loved Christmas parties in the past, but recently, it seems to depress her. I miss the times when she would smile," Josephene explained. Even though her eyes were still lifeless, her face seemed kind of sad. That was the first time that I had been able to tell what she was feeling. Well, sort of. Nothing but her frown told me what she was feeling.

I noticed that Josephene's sad face wasn't as cute as her frightened expression was. I blew into her ear to change her expression, but hse barely even noticed it. She just looked at me after a bit. Something was strange about this maid.

"Do you have a good relationship with Ms. Chandler?" I asked. The investagation had begun, and it wasn't stopping until I found out everything I wanted to know.

"We are as close as a maid and her mistress can get," Josephene answered. "If it wasn't for her, I wouldn't exsist."

"What do you mean by that?"

As if she had just relise what she had just said, her eyes widened, and she stiffened. She seemed to be frozen. When she moved again, her right arm fell to her side. "Sorry. I get gliches, uh, spams where I freeze up sometimes," Josephene said, nervously and unsure.

I didn't quite believe her. I let it slide, though, for now since I'm not leaving this house until I knew every secret about her and her mistress.

After that, I helped her out. We made tea together. I would smile everytime our hands touched, but Josephene pretended not to notice.

When we walked, it looked like Ciel and Ms. Chandler had just sat down. Ms. Chandler said when she saw us, "We came in at just the right time."

Ciel shot me a look. I could tell he was nervous. He wasn't used to his besiness partners being female, except for the queen, and he was absolutely not used to his business partners being younger than him. I could tell he was struggling to keep calm. It amused me.

I continued to help Josephene. Ciel constantly shot nasty glares at me for enjoying myself while he was struggling. I didn't care. I just kept my eyes on Josephene. I noticed that ever since she froze up earlier, she hadn't moved her right arm and did everything with her left.

Ms. Chandler noticed this as well. One time, when Josephene passed her, she wispered, "Josephene, before I go to bed, come to my room. I want to take a look at your arm."

Josephene nodded. Then she hurried off to the kitchen to fetch the desserts. I watched her as she hurried off, smirking. I just found the perfect time to snoop into the Chandler family's secrets.

NyaChi: Sooooooo, how did you like it?

Katie: Really interesting.

NyaChi: Of course you think it's interesting. It's a story, and it's about you and Josephene.

Katie: *shrugs*

NyaChi: What about you, Ciel?

*silence*

NyaChi: Ciel?

*more silence*

NyaChi: Ciel!? Does this mean you didn't like it?

Ciel: I really don't care. I have way more important things to do.

NyaChi: So you don't care that you and Katie accidently kiss in the next chapter. *scribbles down idea*

Ciel: *blush* WH-WH-WHAT?! Does that really happen? *flips through notebook only to find different stories*

NyaChi: Yes. No. Maybe. At least, it's an idea.

Ciel: *glares*

*Katie had pulled out a book and ignored the whole conversation*

NyaChi: Anyways, please R&R.
