Chapter 8

I didn't get a good sleep last night; I only got at least 4 hours of sleep. My sweet mood turned into a sour mood and this is not the best day that I would expect. If Claude was busy, I didn't care I wanted to say yes and I will.

I got dressed in the maids outfit and walked out my room. My inner demon was angry and so was my face expression, it never happens but this wasn't the time to regret it I was going to speak to Claude whether he liked it or not. I finally got to the Phantomhive doors but before I could go out my father stopped me "Salina, where are you going?" my father asked when he walked down the stairs. I shouldn't tell him about last night or where I'm going, but I can't lie to him. "I'm going to the Undertaker, I will be back in an hour" I said when I walked out of the doors.

I felt guilty now, but I couldn't think of a way to tell my own father about last night and I didn't want him to worry about me. I finally made it to the Trancy mansion and I stopped running, I walked to the door and knocked on it. As I was waiting the doors open and came out Claude and he gave me a look like I was a stranger. "Claude, we need to talk" I said, Claude gave me a look but then closed the doors so we could talk. It was silent but I spoke "Claude, why did you not show up last night?" he didn't say anything but finally spoke. "Salina, you are the one of my life, you give me something to smile about" he said very romantically.

"I deeply apologize for not being there for you, but if you can say yes" he continued as he pulled out a little box out of his pocket "Will you marry me and be mine for eternity" he said as he bowed on one leg. I didn't know what to say, at first I was mad but then turned to surprise and now it turned to happiness. "Yes, I will marry you" I said. Claude smiled and put the ring on my finger, the ring was a purple gem stone that was attached to a black ring.

"It's very beautiful" I said. Claude then hugged me with that smile of his, but I then realized something "Claude, what about Alois?" I asked. "He ordered me not to see you ever again, but I don't care all I want is to be with you" he said "I want to be with you too" I said as he let go of my hug.

I never thought I will be so happy to see the day that I Salina, will be married to Claude Faustus. Claude told me to keep this a secret until it was the right time to tell everyone about our news. I promised I won't tell anybody of our little secret, but Claude and I will celebrate it tonight while Alois and Ciel are asleep. We decided to go to a field of roses on the full moon; I also heard that the full moon was supposed to be huge with stars all around it.

It was the night of our lives and I can't think of one thing that can ruin the evening. The moon reflected on the roses which made the roses a dark blue instead of a scarlet red color, the stars looked like a million fire flies that were above a night black sky.

We celebrated the night by having some wine on a quilt in the middle of the field. While the night had gone on we talked and laughed a bit, it was like paradise city that you can spin eternity in.

I realized it was very late and I forgot about the Phantomhive manor and my father, I told him I will be back from the Undertakers in an hour and it's been 13 hours of the day I spend with Claude. "Claude, I would do this a little longer but I have to go back" "Alright, but one last thing" he said as he kissed me with intelligence and lust.

Claude insisted that he could walk me back to the Phantomhive manor. He gave me one last kiss before I could enter the doors, we both said our goodbyes and I walked up to the Phantomhive doors. To my surprise when I open them, I saw Ciel with an angry expression that gave me a shocked expression and I saw my father next to him, he gave me an expression that was angry but didn't show it. "Salina, where have you been?" Ciel hissed "I-I-I was at the Undertakers" I said in a slow, shy voice.

Ciel wasn't convinced but he said something "Salina, I decided your punishment, you are to stay at the Phantomhive manor and you are not allowed to leave at least 10 feet away from the manor. Also, Sebastian will keep an eye on you to make sure you don't walk out of this mansion do I make myself clear?" I was just shocked on his words, what he just said had me sad. Wait I'm half demon, I never made a contract with him or anything I shouldn't follow his rules about what I can't do with my life. But I can't just break his rules, I'm his maid and I have to follow his rules. Ugh it is confusing and I didn't want to deal with this so I just ran off upstairs to my room like a little kid.

I just now wished my mother was here with me right now. Every time I was sad, she will tell me it will be alright and no one would hurt me. I wish I could hear her say that to me one last time, I want to hear her voice why did she have to go? Right now I am lying on my bed crying my tears out, the only two people that can help me right now is my mother or Claude.

I remembered my mother singing this song to me that would make me stop crying. I remembered it was called "Your smile" I think I remembered the words to it.

Sebastian's P.O.V

After I put the master to sleep, I wanted to go check on Salina the poor dear must be very sad. I found her room but before I could enter she was singing a song. It was no ordinary song, it was the song I taught her mother it was "Your smile". She singed the song like her mother did and it was the most beautiful sound I heard.

After she was done with the song, I left because I know her mother use to feel better when I sang the song to her. I hope she will have a peaceful night and no nightmares.

Salina's P.O.V

The song made me stop crying but it wasn't really the same. At least the song helped a little so I can get a peaceful night rest. I undressed and dressed into my night clothes and crawled into bed, I would now close my eyes and hope no nightmares will come into my mind.
