I opened my eyes, refreshed and ready for the rest of the week when Sebastian called to talk to me from the other side of my door.
"C-come in 'Bastian~"
"Bard spoke to me last night Raven, and it seems you are quite the worker. So I'd like you to work with Mey-Rin for the rest of the week, if that isn't too much trouble." Sebastian sat next to me and smiled at me.
"N-no! Of course, no' 'Bestain, in fac' I feel be''er than I 'ave been la'ely~!" I grinned back at him.

Sebastian stood up and gave me a hand then handed me my clothes for the day.

"Than' you 'Bastian." I bowed "I'll be ready in five."
"Ok Raven, I'll tell Mey-Rin." And with that he exited.

I got dressed and as soon as I exited the room, I ran to catch some expensive plates and a Mey-Rin in my other arm, whom stumbled over her own feet. I knew it was the glasses but the others had said she was possessive over them and wouldn't take them off, so I didn't say anything.

"T-thank you Raven, I will make it up to you I will~!"
"No need t' Mey-Rin, I'm 'ere t' 'elp you t'day."
"Golly, I could use the 'elp, I could" She blushed smiling.
"I'll carry th' plates for you. T' th' kitchen?"

Mey-Rin nodded and got up, adjusting her glasses. We walked to the kitchen, Mey-Rin tripped a few times on the way, Sebastian was cleaning after Bard again and sighed.

"He will never learn." He shook his head
"'Ello Sebastian, Raven is a good helper, she is!"
"'Ello 'Bastian, Bard use tha' flamethrower 'gain?"
"Hello there miss', yes, yes he did Raven. And is she doing well Mey-Rin?"
"Y-yes Sebastian!"
"I'm still 'ere, you know."

He looked back at us and looked pleased as I placed the plates on the counter, intact thankfully. Mey-Rin led me to the master's bedroom and showed me how to tidy the bed, and polish the furniture. As time passed slowly, we went through every room cleaning, and carrying plates and cutlery after each meal.

"Raven, we've finished our chores for t'day, we 'ave. You can take the ev'nin' off if you wan'."
Mey-Rin smiled at me with a flushed face.

"Sebastian! Where is that boy? I need to speak with him!"
"I will fetch her for you, my lord."

Sebastian's footsteps were heard coming down the hallway in a quickened manor, even for him. He was either slightly excited or nerved at the news to be told, it was hard to tell as he walked behind me and tapped my shoulder, smiled and spoke.

"Please come with me miss Raven, master Ciel would like to speak to you, privately."

I nodded and followed silently, becoming nervous. This is the first time I'd seen him since my first day, so this must be important for him to take time from his schedule just to talk.

You'll be fine, you'll be OK.

We entered the masters drawing room...

"Sebastian, you may leave now." commanded the boy sat in front of me. "And as for you, Raven? I believe. Please sit."

I nodded and did as I was told, I didn't want to upset him.

"You are probably wondering why I've called you to my study, I have been told of how well you are working in all areas of this manor." He adjusted his seating and held his hands on the desk.
"I want you to assist my butler with his errands and do as he asks. And I mean anything."
He cleared his throat.
"There is a new uniform for you to wear from now on. Am I understood?"
"Yes m'lord."
"And one more thing. While you work with Sebastian, try to speak properly, I have a reputation to uphold." He gestured towards the door. "You may leave."

I nodded and left quietly, heading toward my room. Sebastian smiled at me; as he does and looked at me to say, 'I'll see you soon'

I had changed into my new uniform, I was expecting usual black trousers and white shirt, but I had shorts and a pinstripe waistcoat and a tailed blazer; Like Sebastian, but obviously with shorts. I was finding it difficult to do the buttons up until Sebastian came in as I had left my door slightly agar.

"Will you be needing assistance in the doing of your uniform, Raven?" I jumped a little and shrieked when I heard his voice, then looked toward the floor, blushing in embarrassment.
"Y-yes, please. 'B-Sebastian."
"Here you go, properly dressed."

Sebastian had a smirk on his face, as mine had gotten to the point of burning.

"Much better, don't you think?" Smirked the tall man as he spun me around by my waist.
"You look like a prince." He winked and took my hand, taking me to the main hall.
"You will accompany me in this evenings ball as reward for the tasks our lord, and myself have put unto you. Not just anyone can handle all of the servants here."

A ball, just because I helped?

"Oh my~. Raven. You look like a prince~" Mey-Rin admired in a fangirl way squealing. "You are 'an'some~ You look like Sebastian's brother" She continued to squeal.
Finny and Bard rushed over to see what the commotion was and just stood there mouths open.
DING DONG
Guests started appearing.

"Let the ball begin." Sebastian spoke with his trademark smile.
