No copyright intended, characters and some ideas belong to Yana Toboso. It's the second chapter yay! I'm so sorry to you fans but the characters will probably be out of character, truthfully I haven't watched the second season of this anime. Me and my niece have just made this up in a rp we did once so bear with me. Please review people. I want to know if people like how this fic is going so far and I depend on reviews for support to write more.

Claude had led Hannah down to the basement. Alois never had liked to come down there because it reminded him of being a slave. Claude had made it his room because of that reason, so he could have some peace from Alois once in awhile. Hannah looked around curiously, Claude didn't have many things down here but there sure were a lot of spiders.

"Sir... why did you bring me down here... this is your personal space...," Hannah asked as she looked at him.

"I brought you down here so we could talk without Alois interrupting us," he replied calmly. She looked at the door then back at him with a worried expression on her face.

"Don't worry he won't come down here, he's too scared of it." He walked over to his bed and sat down.

"Come sit Hannah," Claude said patting the spot next to him gently.

She walked over to the bed cautiously and sat down, wondering why Claude had brought her down here in the first place. Claude sat there quietly now, pulling off his gloves and setting them on the night stand. Hannah watched him, slightly curious now. He turned to her, fixing his glasses then he moved his hand towards her. Hannah flinched because she thought he was going to smack her but he had started to run a hand through her hair. She blushed a bit then, looking at him.

"Umm... sir...," she said to him but didn't finish because he ran his slim fingers down her cheek. She blushed even more then and Claude seemed to realize what he had been doing and let his hand slide away.

"I'm... sorry Hannah, I shouldn't have done that. I don't know what I was thinking," Claude replied as he started to get up. Hannah grabbed his arm,

"No sir... it's ok... please stay." Claude looked down at her, she was blushing like mad but had a look of pleading in her eyes. He sat back down and she let go of his arm. A small smile played across his lips as they both say there silently. The silence lasted for quite some time, Hannah fiddling with her apron while Claude just stared at the wall in deep thought.

Finally Claude broke the silence, deciding he wanted to say something as he turned to Hannah. Hannah looked up at him, feeling his gaze on her.

"What is it sir?," she asked quietly.

"I don't know what this is that I'm feeling for you... but it's getting stronger and I'm sure Alois is going to realize it soon. I've already gotten distracted a few times before when Alois was talking, my mind was on you. I've had to lie to him, saying I was listening. He believed me those times but I'm not sure he will next time," he replied quite calmly but he had started messing with her fingers. Hannah looked shocked, sitting there for a minute as she stared at the wall. She finally looked at Claude,

"Sir... I think you may be in love with me...," she replied quietly but made sure he could still hear her. Hannah had turned a bright red with blush as she said it. Claude had looked down at her, processing what she said to him. He let go of her hands then and stood up. He started to walk around the room, not knowing if he should spill his feelings out to her or deny them completely. He wasn't supposed to fall in love, he was suppose to take care of his master until it was time to take his soul. Claude had a lot of thinking he needed to do.

"I'll come find you later," he said as he walked over to Hannah and held out his hand to help her up, leading her up to the basement door and opening it for her.

"Ok sir...," she replied and walked swiftly out the door. He shut it then went back to sit on his bed, thinking about what he was going to do.

Well that's all for now, hope you liked it. Please please please, review. Love all you guys for liking my fic and I'll write more if I get reviews.
