I'm back at it again with the new chapter!

Please enjoy!

Ciel ran up to the dorms, and knocked randomly on a door (room 10). The tall guy with the glasses opened the door, and looked down at him. "What's up," he said.

"Do you know which room Lizzy Midford is in?"

"Yes," the guy replied,"why?"

"I need to talk to her."

The tall guy frowned. "You better not be doing any moves on her."

"No, no! She's my cousin!"

The tall guy relaxed. "My name is Claude Faustus, by the way. She's in room 13."

"Ciel Phantomhive. Gotta go, now! Thanks!"

And Ciel ran off yet again, but this time to Room 13. He knocked on the door, and to his surprise, Mey Rin opened it. "Why, hello, Ciel!"

"Hi Mey Rin! Is Lizzy here right now?"

"Yes, I will get her," Mey Rin replied,"Lizzy!"

"Yes, Mey Rin?"

"Someone's here to see you!"

Out of the living room came Lizzy. She stared at Ciel for a moment. "You look strangely familiar..."

"Lizzy, it's me! Ciel!"

Lizzy's eyes widened. "C-Ciel? Is that you?"

Lizzy ran to Ciel, hugging him tightly. "It's been so long! And you look so cute!"

Ciel smiled. He was happy to see his cousin again. He hadn't seen her since she moved away to France for a few years. And now they were reunited. He hugged her back. "It's good to see you, too, Lizzy."

Then, Ciel realized that Mey Rin was awkwardly standing there, staring. Lizzy seemed to realize this too, and let go of Ciel. Then, Lizzy said, "I think you deserve an explaination of what's going on, don't you, Mey Rin?"

"That would be nice, yes," Mey Rin replied.

Lizzy started her speech. "This wonderful friend, here, Ciel, is my cousin. We used to play around this nice campus and in the forest as kids until I was eight years old, and my family moved to Paris for a while. I came back a year ago, and started going to school here. And here we are!"

"Oh, that makes sense, yes," Mey Rin replied.

"Class is starting soon, we might want to get ready," Lizzy said, and Mey Rin nodded in agreement.

The bell rang, and Ciel ran to his dorm room to check his schedule. Drama. He grabbed his textbooks, and ran to class.

The teacher cleared his throat. "As most of you may know, this year's annual play will be Romeo and Juliet, but a modern version of it, as some of you requested a modern parody for this year's play. Auditions will be in one week. You might want to audition for two roles, since you might not get your first choice. One of the roles is a narrator, so if you want to be a narrator practice your voice type. Please do not act out jealousy, since most of us know what happened last year with cough Grell cough.Now, go practice. The scripts are here. Get into pairs. I also suggest you practice a bit in your free time, or you might not get the part you want, and will play the part of a tree. Good luck to y'all."

Alois tapped Ciel's shoulder. "Should we practice together? There's something I wanna talk to you about later, by the way."

Ciel smiled. "Sure! And what happened with Grell?"

Alois grimaced and blushed a bit. "You sure you want to know?"

Ciel tilted his head curiously. "Yeah, I wanna know."

"You sure?"

"Yes, Alois, please just tell me?"

Alois took a deep breath. "Well, you might wanna know this first- Grell has an unhealthy obsession with Sebastian. Last year, our play was Sleeping Beauty. And also at this time, Lizzy... never mind," Alois's eyes got a bit moist,"Of course, she got the part for Aurora, and Sebastian go the part for Prince Charming. So, out of jealousy, Grell snuck into Lizzy's dorm room, stole and shredded her clothes, so that Lizzy had to leave her dorm room naked the next day."

Ciel was a bit scared now. He had enjoyed spending time with Sebastian, but what would Grell do if he found out?

Ciel had been wondering something. "If you like Lizzy, why don't you just ask her out?"

Alois sighed sadly. "Lizzy has been on the rebound from guy to guy for a while now. It's because she fell in love with a French dude called Jaques while she was in Paris, and they dated for awhile. On their two-year anniversary, Lizzy made handmade chocolates for this dude, only to find him sleeping with three other girls. In their bedroom. He dumped her then and there, and ever since, she has been going from guy to guy, hoping to fall in love again, so she can mend what was broken. Jaques disgusts me."

Ciel was kind of surprised. Lizzy had seemed so happy earlier, was she really this sad?

Alois continued. "First, it was Finny, then it was Ronald, and now it's Claude. She stays with them for a couple of months before she finds herself a new boy toy. I just wanna be there for her... because I love her... and Claude also disgusts me. He just sleeps with a girl a couple times before he dumps her. He's a real life playboy."

Ciel said nothing. He felt bad for Alois, who wanted nothing more than to make his cousin happy, and to make her whole again.

"Hey, Alois, I have a question. How do you know if you have a crush on someone?"

Alois laughed. "Well, what do you know? Already found a hot guy?"

Ciel blushed. "Answer the damn question!"

Alois stroked his chin. "You want to be around them, you want them to notice you, yet you're nervous when you talk to them, because you're afraid you'll say or do the wrong thing. And usually you think they're cute. Or smoking hot. Or both."

Alois smirked, and whispered in Ciel's ear. "So, who's the lucky guy, huh, Ciel?"

Ciel said nothing. His face went from strawberry red to crimson.

Alois looked at Ciel seriously. "Remember the bestie golden rule, Ciel?"

Ciel sighed. "Fine."

Ciel whispered in Alois's ear. "Sebastian Michaelis. I want to be around him, and... and, I just, you know, feel a spark there. I don't even know if he likes me. I don't even know if he likes men. I just... I dunno."

Alois giggled. "Ciel, everyone knows Sebastian is gay. That's why Lizzy hasn't gone out with him. That's why Grell is so hopeful,"then, Alois frowned in concern,"but you need to be careful, Grell has a chainsaw. And he will stop at nothing to get Sebastian."

Ciel was kind of scared, but also curious. "How can the school allow Grell to have a freaking chainsaw?"

Alois had never thought of that. He pondered the question. "I don't think the school knows. And if they found out, Grell would probably scare them off."

The teacher came over and glared at them. Alois put up his hands in deafeat. "Okay, okay, we'll practice. So, Ciel, what character do you wanna be?"

Ciel wasn't sure. I wouldn't be a very good Romeo...

Alois interrupted his thought flow. "Ciel, how about you be Juliet?"

Ciel's face went through many emotions within two seconds. Shock, anger, disgust, consideration, and then a poker face.

Alois laughed. "You know, it would be a good yaoi performance, if he gets the part for Romeo..."

The teacher sent another glare to Alois. "Fine, fine!"

So, they practiced, Alois as (a very dramatic) Romeo and Ciel as Juliet. A slightly irritated Juliet, that is. Having to act as a female... For Ciel, that was quite humiliating, since, well, he is a male. After practicing a little while, Alois said,"Ciel, you make a really good Juliet."

"What?!"

"No, I'm serious. You should go for the part."

Ciel was pondering this. It wouldn't be such a bad idea if Sebastian got the part for Romeo...

"Fine. I'll audition for the part."

Alois's face went through several expressions in the matter of five seconds. Shock, mischief, deep thought, and lastly, excitement. "Ciel, we need to make sure you and Sebastian get the part... because I swear to God, Claude will probably try to rape you if he gets the part for Romeo. And he probably has all the STDs science has discovered plus a few more."

Ciel looked over across the room at Claude with a look of disbelief and disgust. Was he that much of a playboy? Was that even possible?

"Yeah... I don't want to lose my virginity to some sleaze like him."

Alois clapped his hands. "Well said, my friend."

Suddenly, the bell rang. Ciel looked at Alois. "What's the next class?"

Alois tilted his head. "Didn't you know? Mondays are half days!"

Ciel inwardly cheered. He liked school, but he liked his free time more.

"Ciel, one more thing. Don't go to the cafeteria on Wednesdays at 17:30."

"Why not?"

Alois shifted uncomfortably. "Because thats where Claude sleeps with his 'girls'."
