Chapter 3: That Maid, Perfect
A few weeks passed and you weren't new anymore, but you still weren't used to your job.
"Che…" you take the clean laundry outside to hang it out for dry, as you throw the wet, clean clothes on the rod, you see Finny gardening.
After you're done hanging the clothes, you decide to say 'Good Morning' to the young lad.
You walk to him and see the huge mess he made, all the flowers that were once beautiful were half buried to the ground, the dirt was almost everywhere including on Finny himself.
"…Good morning… Finny" you place your hand on his shoulder. He turns his head and his face has smears of dirt and tears flowing. You take a few steps back because you knew what was coming…
"[y/n]! Please help me! If Sebastian finds out, he'll kill me for sure!" he jumps on you and both of you about to fall but you manage to stay in place.
"Okay Finny… I'll help you… but you should try not to mess things up" you smile at the blonde boy.
"Oh, thank you so much!" you both hurry up and clean the mess before Sebastian arrives, well… you do most of the job.
After you both were done, you two take a few steps back and take a look at your hard work.
"Waahh! [Y/n]! You did it just like Sebastian would! It's amazing!"
"Well, that's too big of a compliment for me, I'm nowhere near perfect as that pretty-face" You close your eyes and rub your upper lip with your index finger feeling proud.
You both hear footsteps coming closer "It must be that pretty-face, well then Finny, don't tell him I helped ya! Good luck!" you run back into the mansion to do the remaining chores.
"Well, Finnian, I see you haven't made a mess today and it's surprisingly done perfectly" Sebastian examines the flowerbed.
"Well, it wasn't actua-" Finny holds his mouth shut as he remembers you telling him not to tell the butler.
"It wasn't actually…?" Sebastian expects Finny to complete his sentence.
"It wasn't actually… uhh… Hard! Yeah! It wasn't actually that hard" Finny says as he rubs the back of his head nervously.
"I see… well done" the butler continues to the manor.
"[y/n] really is a life saver…" Finny sighs.
"Okay now… I have to help Mey-rin polish the bookshelves in the Library" you walk to the library and open the doors and find Mey-rin with a 3 feet stacks of books in her hands that were about to fall,
"Mey-rin!' you yell as the books fall out of hands.
You run and grab the books in both hands as fast as you can and place them on the ground and slide a chair to where Mey-rin was about to fall.
"Oh my…" Mey-rin sits on the chair instead of falling down. You let out a long sigh of satisfaction and start taking the books out of the other shelf.
"Sheesh… you should be a little careful, try taking out a few books instead of the whole shelf itself…" you smile at the clumsy maid.
"Do forgive me [y/n], please do" the maid bows down several times making you worry even more about her…
Mey-rin polishes the shelves and you put the books in order… after you're both done, you see the bookshelf sparkle.
You wipe the sweat off your forehead and sigh…
"Ever since you came here, things sure have been going perfectly, yes they have" Mey-rin compliments you.
"Oh… no… pfft, please" you say as you wave your hand and blush.
You walk out the of the room and see Sebastian heading to the library, you just walk past him without even blurting a single word
The butler enters the library and almost bumps into Mey-rin as she was about to leave the room as well,
"Do forgive! Please do!" she bows down several times.
"I see you have done your job without breaking anything…" Sebastian looks around to see if anything was out of place…
"Good job, Mey-rin. You've done it perfectly."
"Oh no, [y/n] is the main reason behind my perfection, yes she is" she arranges her spectacles.
"I see… well then, please continue with your other chores" the butler leaves the room and continues to inspect everything.
The butler heads to the kitchen and orders Bardroy to cook *insert fancy dish* and leaves.
You head to the kitchen and you see Sebastian also coming right your way, the both of you just make eye contact and carry on walking.
"That pretty-face is always so perfect, it's starting to get annoying…" you mutter to yourself.
You enter the kitchen and find 2 men inside already
"So, what're you cooking today?" you say as you throw your hands on the counter.
"'*insert fancy dish*' says Emily" Snake says as he washes the dishes.
You look at Bard who starts cutting meat which aren't equal sized.
"That's not how yo-" interrupted by Bard who points a knife between your eyes making you move your head backwards.
"Don't teach the cook how to cook, you help Snake with his work and I'll do mines" he points to Snake who keeps washing dishes
"O…okay…" you walk slowly towards Snake and ask him if he needs any help.
" 'You can dry the washed dishes' says Oscar"
"Okay then" you grab a towel and start drying the plates and glasses.
A moment of silence between all 3 of you and then you hear something from the back.
You turn your head and see the so called 'cook' wearing his goggles and has a flamethrower in his hands.
Your pupils grow small and the first thing you do is snatch that deadly thing from his hands
"WHAT ON EARTH ARE YOU DOING?!" you say as you breathe heavily.
Snake just silently sneaks out of the room after doing the dishes since he didn't want to be a part of what was going on.
"I told you not to come in betw-"
"'Not to come between the cook', my arse! You were about to burn the kitchen down to ashes!" you interrupt the cook.
You push him aside and start reading the ingredients "Let's start over, keep this away." You hand him the flamethrower and he puts it into one of the closets.
You start cutting the meat perfectly and turn the stove on and put the pot on. You knew how to read since you weren't illiterate.
You start putting ingredients one by one as Bard observes you
"Move aside, it's my turn now" he moves you over and you glare at him that makes him understand that he shouldn't screw it up
You turn around and grab the plates and start decorating it with the food and you order Bard to do the same. After the both of you are done, the 2 of you look at your masterpiece.
"Wow, just the way Sebastian would do" the blonde says while sticking a new cigarette in his mouth.
"Nahh, I'm might be perfect but not as perfect as him, he would've done it in 5 minutes… and also, don't tell him I helped you in preparing the dish" you put your hands on your waist and walk out the door.
You leave the room and see Sebastian coming to the kitchen, again.
'This guy has some timing…' you thought.
"Miss [y/n], I'll be setting the young masters dinner so I'd like you to serve him his tea."
"Alright…" you continue your walking.
Sebastian enters the kitchen and surprised to see nothing burnt and the dish right in front of the disastrous cook.
"Whadaya think? Done perfectly?" Bard folds his arms and grins.
"Perfectly done." Sebastian comes near the dishes and takes a closer look
He takes the prepared meals and heads towards the dining room to set the table.
You walk to the young master's room with the tea tray, a little nervous for it was the first time you were serving him something and you had to make sure everything went perfectly.
You knock on the door and enter with the tray… you see the young boy on his table taking a nap instead of doing his work.
Even more nervous than before, you keep the tea cup ready before you try waking him up.
"Y…young master… young master" you say in a soft, sweet voice and poke his face.
The young boy opens his eyes slowly, puts up his head and rubs his one eye.
"Your tea…" you move the saucer with the tea cup forward, you were clearly trembling.
The noble accepts the cup and sips the tea that was made by you.
"Sebastian didn't make this... did you?" Ciel asks while he moves his eye towards your direction.
"Y-yes… I made it" you fold your hands nervously.
'It's good…" the boy continues to drink his tea.
You let out a silent sigh of relief mixed with satisfaction. You were about to leave the room with the tea tray but Ciel stops you and asks a question
"How did you end up being homeless anyway…?"
Your happiness fades as you remember all that you were trying to forget…
"I'm sorry, young master but that's… too personal…" you say with a slight frown.
"No, its fine, I shouldn't have asked you this in the first place" the boy continues to do his paperwork.
You walk out the room and see Tanaka in his chibi form that makes you drop a sweat down your head.
You continue to walk until you reach your room, you take your clothes off and walk into the shower after all that hard work.
The first thing your eye sees is that same branded mark you see every day…
"I hope everything stays this way…"
