Chapter 3: Of Rat Infestations And Missing Stockings
A few days had passed since the incident with the Italian man at the Phantonhive Manor and Amy, who couldn't make up her mind about whether or not she should of gone over to Madame Red's house, ended up not going as it so conveniently happened that Madame Red herself decided it was time to pay her favorite nephews a visit and was actually coming over to the manor. And at a perfect time too. She decided to come just when the manor had a rat infestation. Which would actually bring us back to the present moment were screams could be heard form the halls of the Phantomhive Manor from all it's rooms as Finny, Bardroy, May-rin, and Tanaka chased rats all over the house. Amy, who had woken up from al the racket, just watched them laughing every once in a while as she leaned on her door frame. In fact, at the moment Finny was trying to throw a big white statue at what was supposed to be a rat but looked more like a cute little mouse. And so when Bardroy and Finny went at it again, with May-rin screaming nonsense and Tanaka laughing as he sipped his cup of tea, Amy couldn't help herself, kneeled down on the ground and picked up the little fur ball. The mouse stared at her with wide eyes and Amy giggled as she pet it. "It's okay buddy," She said. "I promise I won't hurt you."
"But I can't promise that, my young Mistress…"
A deep voice said from behind her and she yelped as she looked up to meet Sebastian's stern gaze.
"You should not be playing with those animals miss. It could bite you and you could get sick once more, my young mistress." Sebastian reprimanded her and she sighed putting the little rodent back on the ground and watched him before looking up at the butler with a sheepish smile. "I'm sorry Sebastian… it just looked so small and soft… and other than the old family dog I have never had a pet before and I just really want it to pet it." Amy said as she stood up rubbing the back of her neck awkwardly. Sebastian stared at her for a moment before looking down at the mouse, and immediately crushing it with his foot. Amy gasped, eyes widening in horror as the the last squeaks of the mouse were heard. "This vile creatures are not pets, my young Mistress," Sebastian said kneeling down and picking up the death rodent, an antagonist look in his blood red eyes. "They are 's all they are." And with that he walked towards were Finny, Bardroy, and Mey-rin were still arguing over how to catch the poor death mouse without hurting it. "It doesn't even matter anymore…the poor thing has already been crushed to death." She thought, a single tear falling down her cheek, as she watched Sebastian scold them. After that she slowly turned around and walked inside her bedroom shutting the door as she did so. She then made her way towards her closet and opened the big wooden doors so she could start looking through the extensive line of dresses neatly hanging inside of it. "That was very cruel…" She could help thinking as she picked a dress and remembered the squeaks of the little mouse. Why had Sebastian done that? It had definitely not been necessary, he could of just set the little mouse free out in the garden. Though that wasn't exactly what was bothering her, and she knew it.
What was bothering her was the way he talked and looked at her while he killed the little rodent. She could of swore she saw his eyes glow pink for a second once again. Also the way he said those things… it was almost as if he was talking about her and not the little animal. But before she could ponder on how weird Sebastian was sometimes any longer the noise of a carriage coming from her window distracted her. "She's finally here!" She said excitedly as she ran towards her window to take a look, and sure enough it was Madame Red and with a new butler as well she noticed. "What is it with everyone getting new butlers all of the sudden?" Amy thought curiously and started giggling excitedly as she quickly put on the dress she had been holding forgetting to call May-Rin to assist her with the corset and stockings, therefore wearing it without them. "Oh who cares about the butlers… I am just glad she is here."
Then she quickly grabbed a pair of shoes, slipped them on, and ran out of her room to go just so she could meet Madame Red at the door. She was almost all the way down the stairs when she was stopped by a firm but gentle grip on her shoulder. Amy gulped as she looked at the gloved hand and then up to meet Sebastian's calm face. " It seems you forgot to get fully dressed, my young Mistress." He said and Amy blushed as she realized she didn't have a corset on or her stockings. "Oh my God… how embarrassing…." Amy thought as she looked down at the ground trying to hide her blush. "I-I um… I-I guess I did." Amy mumbled causing her face to turn even redder that her fiery curls, and Sebastian smirked. "Here young Miss," Sebastian started but stopped to place a black blindfold on her hands, which he noted were simnifically smaller than his. Amy stared at the black blind fold confused and waited for Sebastian to continue. When he didn't she sighed and looked up at him asking, "Sebastian what is this for?" Sebastian smirked once again. "Well my young Mistress, isn't it obvious?" He asked. "Since all of the other servants of the manor are busy at the moment I will have to help you finish dressing my young miss." Amy's eyes widen as she realized what he was saying. He was going to help her put on her undergarments blindfolded. "Oh… alright." Amy said awkwardly before the both of them started making their way back towards her bedroom.
Once they were there all Amy could do was sigh nervously as she gave Sebastian the black blindfold back. "Alright," He said as she placed it in his hands. "I'm going to turn around now and wait for you to undress, Young Miss. " He then added as he tied the black blindfold over his crimson colored eyes and gave his back to her. "Ok…" Amy quietly mumbled and quickly started to take her dress off. When she was done she placed it neatly on top of her bed and covered her breasts because even though she knew Sebastian wouldn't look she still felt embarrassed that she was topless. "Are you ready young Mistress?" Sebastian then asked her and she nodded. But then she realized that Sebastian couldn't see her nod so she face palmed before nervously saying yes. She then closed her eyes and held her breath tightly as Sebastian tightened the corset. After that when he was done he somehow had already slipped on her stocking without her noticing. All that was left to do then only was to put back on the forgotten dress on her bed. And so as Sebastian slipped it over her head Amy couldn't take the silence anymore and decided to break it. "Sebastian, can I ask you a question?" She asked, looking up at him even though he couldn't see that as he was still blindfolded. "Of course young Mistress." Sebastian said as he place her arms inside the sleeves of the dress. "How did you and up working for my brother and where did you two meet? Where you with him all of this last four years? Do you think you could you tell me what he was doing all that time?" Amy asked him with a determined and curious tone on her voice that made Sebastian yet again smirk. "Well my young mistress I am afraid I wasn't with the young master for the whole time he was away from home so I wouldn't be able to tell you what he was up to all that time but as for how we met… let's just say that there was a deal involved and that's how I ended up working for the young master." Sebastian answered as he finished tying up a bow that went on the side of the dress therefore finishing dressing her. Amy was about to ask him another question but before she could even get the chance he proceeded to take off the blindfold and place it in an inside pocket of his vest saying, "Well now that you are all finished young mistress you can go and greet Madame Red along with the young master in the common room."
Amy sighed annoyed that she hadn't been able to ask anything more but quickly smiled as she remembered Madame Red was there at the Phantomhive manor. Once again she was so exited she quickly ran out of her room leaving Sebastian behind but stopped just outside the door to do something she had forgotten to do. She gave a quick look into her room, her emerald eyes meeting Sebastian's, before quickly smiling, and quite a toothy grin it was Sebastian noted, as she quite comically poked her head back into the door. "Thanks Sebastian." Amy then said with a giggle before turning around and running out of the room once more, leaving said butler starring after her.
Once she was out of sight Sebastian chuckled quietly and smirked as he couldn't help of think of something.
"What an interesting human…"
