5. In Wich Amy Gets Caught Spying, Ciel Get

Chapter 5: In Wich Lizzy Comes To Visit, The Phantomhive's Get Dance Lessons, And It Rains Outside

Amy sighed bored as she picked at her food with her fork. It was breakfast time and she and Ciel were at the table eating and waiting for their tea to be brought by Grell, Madame Red's new butler who Ciel had agreed to take for a couple of days so Sebastian could teach him to be a proper butler, as the rest of the staff stood at the corner of the room waiting on them, to see if they needed anything else. "I'm not even hungry… maybe I should just excuse myself and go read a book on the garden. I do feel like going out today." Amy thought turning to look out the window as she placed her fork back down. She then shivered feeling someone was starring at her. She quickly looked around the room and met Sebastian's eyes, who were still starring at her intently. The two of them continued to stare at each for a little while then. "Why is he starring? Do I have something on my face?" Amy thought to herself. "It's making me feel weird… could he just not…"

Then almost as if he had heard her Sebastian smirked at her. "But there is no way, right? It isn't possible for him to know what I was thinking… or is it?" Amy thought scared. But what happened next terrified her even more. Sebastian's expression turned into a sinister one and his eyes… they turned pink and glowed in an unnatural fashion while his pupils slitted like those of a cat. Amy's eyes widen as she let out a small squeak, and quickly looked down from their little starring contest. She had thought she'd seen his eyes do that before but she always thought she had imagined it or maybe it was just an effect of how the light hit his eyes but this time… this time there was no denying it. She had definitely seen it.

"His eyes… something is going on, Sebastian is definitely not what he appears to be." Amy thought as she looked from Sebastian and then back at Ciel.

"I need to tell Ciel right away…"

…

"I need to tell Ciel right away…"

Sebastian smirked once again amused at the thoughts of the younger brat. The ignorant girl had no idea… no idea her stupid brother already knew about Sebastian's true nature. Though he had to admit that it would be very interesting to see her reaction once she learned of it. Would she act bravely at the face of a demon or would she scream, and coward away, like stalked prey who is finally aware of its impending demise? Maybe both? Definitely something interesting indeed, thought he could easily guess what she would do. "You are very predictable young mistress…" Sebastian thought. She did after all jump screaming about three feet in the air every time a spider was around… and every time he had to go and kill it. So very predictable she was indeed. Sebastian then looked at Ciel and smirked. "And you… you aren't so predictable young master… but certainly not as amusing."

"AAAHHHHHHH!"

*splash*

"HOT!HOT!"

Sebastian was immediately in front of Ciel and Amelia as Grell came crashing through the door on top of the tea cart spilling it everywhere, most of it on Finnian, who started screaming. Then Grell proceeded to scream out apologies while grabbing the table cloth and attempting to wipe off the tea off Finnian, pulling everything off the table.

"How inconvenient…"

…

Ciel gave out an annoyed sigh as he pinched the bridge of his nose. It wasn't even noon yet and there was already a racket in the manor.

"Master, why did you agree to take on such a useless idjit?" Bardroy then asked him and Ciel rolled his eyes. "You're one to talk Bard." Ciel then told him causing his sister to give a small smile. "I don't recall seeing her smile since that night… it's nice." He thought starring at her for a little longer before giving his head a shake and turning to Bardroy once more. "And anyways, it didn't seem like such a bad idea…" Ciel then told him recalling his conversation with Madame Red a few days earlier were he had agreed to take on Grell. "I thought Sebastian would be the only one inconvenienced. I didn't expect for me to be affected as well." And indeed he hadn't. Until Grell proved to be completely incompetent as a butler. "He really couldn't be any worse if he tried…."

Then Grell started blurting out apologies and quickly stood up, taking out a silver dagger out of nowhere and pointing it to his throat. "I know what I shall do to fix what I've done! I shall atone with my death!" He screamed causing Ciel to face palm, Amy to let out a squeak, and Finny, May-Rin, and Bardroy to scream at him to stop. Fortunately before the idiot could do anything serious Sebastian stood behind him, putting his hand over his shoulder and saying, "There's no need for that, just think of the horrible mess you'll made." Sebastian then proceeded to take the knife away from him as Grell's face became one of adoration. Bardroy, Finny, and May-Rin only stared baffled at the strange man and his sister's eyes were still wide as she stared from Sebastian to Grell. "I am surrounded by idiots." Ciel thought as he got up from his seat and sighed annoyed. He then made his way towards the doors of the dinning hall and stopped for a second just as Sebastian finished reprimanding Grell. "Come on Sebastian, I haven't got time for this. I've got places to go and things to do." He then told him and the both of them walked out of the dining room. "First I got to go and get a new walking stick…" Ciel thought as he and Sebastian walked. "I also have to meet a few nobles today, and then get back to the manor to do a lot of tedious paperwork."

"Should I go and get a carriage young master?" Sebastian then asked Ciel bringing him out of his thoughts.

"Yes."

…

Amy sighed as she walked through the white roses in the garden. "I need to speak with Ciel…" Was all she could think about. You see it had been a few hours since the whole morning incident and because Ciel had left so quickly afterwards she couldn't catch up to him and warn him about Sebastian. Though something wasn't right and as much as Amy tried to ignore it she couldn't. "It just doesn't make sense…" She thought. And it didn't. She knew her brother wasn't stupid and since he spend, out of everyone in the household, the most time with Sebastian he was bound to at least suspect something. Specially if she did. It wasn't that she was stupid of anything but it was also no secret Amy wasn't always the best at figuring things out. So then if even she had managed to figure out something was wrong with Sebastian, wouldn't Ciel had as well? "Maybe he already knows… maybe that's the whole reason he brought Sebastian with him from wherever it is he was all that time he was away…" A part of Amy's mind whispered to her. And it would make sense since they already had Tenaka so they really didn't need two butlers. Plus Ciel knowing about Sebastian not being completely normal would also explain some things like how he wasn't even faced when Sebastian did things it would take at least ten or twelve people to do by themselves, or the fact that he did everything in the household without breaking a sweat, the weird way his eyes changed, how he always seemed to know what everyone was thinking… and not to mention that they had never actually seen him eat or drink anything. The fact was now that Amy was analyzing everything the only way Sebastian's abilities and the fact that he was even alive made sense because she was sure he wasn't a normal human being, in fact she was starting to consider he wasn't even human. "But there is no way… right? Ciel would at least told me if he brought something… unnatural to the house, right?" Amy kept on asking and asking herself. Because that was all she could do. She had chosen to put her trust in her brother and believe in him, to have faith that if he ever did do something like that he would have the same trust towards her and tell her about it. "But then again he never does tell me anything these days…" Amy muttered to herself, gingerly plucking a rose out of the bushes she had been walking by. She then sighed again and decided to get back into the manor when suddenly she heard a giggle in the distance.

"That laugh, it sounds like…"

Suddenly Amy found herself on her back, gasping for air, as someone hug-tackled her to the ground. Then once she got her breath back she looked up and her eyes widened when she saw who it was.

"Lizzy?"

…

"Finally we are back…" Ciel thought as Sebastian helped him out of the carriage. "I'm sure you're tired master. I'll prepare tea for you immediately." Sebastian then said and Ciel nodded at him to open the door which he did much to the boy's dismay at what he saw.

"What the hell did they do to my mansion?" Ciel thought with a horrified look on his face as he looked at all of the stuffed animals, pink streamers, and frilly materials all over at what once was his finely decorated manor. "Oh God…" he then thought with a shudder. Sebastian seemed to notice Ciel's expression and asked what was wrong before looking inside as well. His reaction was just the same. "My manor…" Ciel muttered sourly. "What in the world happened to this place?" Sebastian asked. Then a few giggles were heard and Bard, Finny, and May-Rin came running from the living room screaming Sebastian's name. "What the hell is going on?" Ciel thought as he noticed they were all dressed in ridiculous things like rabbit ears and pink bows.

"Have they gone mad?"

But before Ciel could ask them anything a loud scream was heard followed by the same giggles from earlier, and Elizabeth, his fiancé, came rushing from the living room, laughing as she pulled Grell from a rope tied a around his neck and Amy following behind them, telling Elizabeth not to pull to hard or she would choke the poor bloke. "CIELLLLL!" Elizabeth then yelled when she finally spotted him, dropping the rope attached to Grell's neck and running towards him. "Dammit…" Ciel thought as she grabbed him by the arms and started spinning him around the room. "Why does she always do this?"

"Oh Ciel! You're so cute, you darling boy! I could just eat you up!"

Ciel cringed.

"CIEELLLLLL!"

"That's it…" Ciel thought as he firmly but gently pushed her arms away. "Elizabeth why are you here? Surely auntie wouldn't let you come alone." He then asked her before she had time to do or scream anything else. "I sneaked away because I wanted to see you silly!" Elizabeth then quickly told him before letting out a happy squeak and hugging him once more. "Wait, you sneaked away? Aren't you going to get into trouble?" Ciel asked her while he tried to once again pry her arms off her without success. "That's what I told her but she said it didn't matter, that she really wanted to see you Ciel." Amy then spoke up when Lizzy just continued to giggle and hug Ciel without answering his questions.

"Is that so Amelia?" Ciel asked finally managing to get out of Elizabeth's grasp for more than three seconds.

"Yes brother… I also tried to um… you know tell her to tone down the decorations a bit but she said no because she wanted to ha-"

"TO HAVE A BALL!" Elizabeth screamed interrupting and finishing for Amy at the same time. "We just simply have to now that I've decorated the mansion so beautifully!" She then added screaming a little bit less. Not that, that made Ciel cringe any less. There was no way they were having a ball. "Now Elizabeth, we can't have a ball." Ciel told her but it seemed she couldn't hear him as she continued to ramble about everything they needed to do for preparations and how she had already picked out a matching outfit for him to her dress and how they were going to dance the whole night.

"Elizabeth… we will have no ball." Ciel said again but just as the first time she ignored him, quickly running towards Grell who was standing next to Sebastian, saying, "And now I shall go get ready! Oh and I'll take him with me so I can make him pretty too!" She then grabbed the rope around his neck once more and quickly ran upstairs towards the guest rooms while poor Grell let out a scream as he was being pulled and choked once again.

"But I said no ball…"

…

"If I have to you have to as well sister!"

Amy huffed at her brother's words. "I don't have to! And anyways you know why I don't want to as well." She told him with a glare to match his own. They were currently in Ciel's study, figuring out a way to cancel the ball but once they concluded they really couldn't, now they were just arguing about whether or not Amy would have to go as well. And Amy was annoyed at Ciel for making her go along as he knew just as well as she knew he couldn't dance, that Amy had two left feet too. Her dancing abilities were practically nonexistent. "And anyways she only wants to dance with you so I don't see why I have to be there as well…." Amy then added as she crossed her arms over her chest and gave him an annoyed look. Then Ciel looked like was about to respond but before he could Sebastian, who had been pouring some tea along with biscuits in a corner of the room, spoke up, making both siblings turn their heads in his direction. "You know my lord, the young mistress is right. Lady Elizabeth wants a dance you can't possibly refuse her." He said and Amy smirked smugly while Ciel rolled his eye annoyed. "Ha! You see! He agrees too, I don't have to dance as well!" Amy said but quickly regretted it as Sebastian added, "But the young master is also right, mistress. You are both Phantomhive's and must be seen together more often so you shall dance tonight as well mistress."

Ciel smirked and Amy frowned. "Stupid super butler… of course he would do that, he just couldn't side with me could he?" Amy thought annoyed. "And anyways it isn't like I don't want to… it's just that I don't know how… how to dance." Sebastian then smirked and Amy rolled her eyes. Seriously if he really was all powerful and mind reading could he just not make it obvious? The only reason she hand't told Ciel anything yet was because Lizzy was here and because she hadn't had time to speak with her brother on their own but she was now more sure than ever. Sebastian was weird and hiding something and he could read her mind and change his eye color… but she wouldn't do anything until this was over because frankly dealing with Lizzy was more worrisome than dealing with the super bionic butler. "Fine… just call us a tutor or something. Mrs. Bright for me and Mr. Hughes for Amy should do just fine." Ciel then said and Amy sighed relieved. She didn't know how the whole dancing thing worked but at least she would have a class before hand so she wouldn't be completely clueless.

"I am sorry my Lord but there is no time to call in a tutor. There is only one option…" Sebastian said as he checked his watch and grabbed a pair of glasses from a small pocket inside his coat.

"With your permission, young masters, I will be your dancing instructor."

Amy and Ciel quickly shared a horrified glance before tuning back to Sebastian. "No way… it's not happening. And anyways he can't teach Ciel how to dance he is a man…" Amy thought as her brother voiced out her thoughts at loud and questioned Sebastian's abilities to dance. Which only back fired really as it turned out that Sebastian was a dancing master and was actually a guest of honor in some palaces and knew all types of dances. In all honestly Amy had seen it coming. Like seriously is there anything he couldn't do? "Probably not…" She thought as Ciel stood up from his desk reluctantly and sighed walking towards Sebastian so the dance lessons could begin. Amy then sighed as well and stood up walking towards the two to see how this was all going to work out. After all she had no clue on how to dance. Shameful, she knew, but hadn't really been a priority whilst she lived with Madame Red, you know? With all the grieving and soul searching she had had to do.

"Here, given the circumstances we'll start with you, young mistress." Sebastian then said grabbing Amy by the waist and using his other arm to instruct her where to place hers. Amy blushed and quickly looked down. "Now you just follow my lead young mistress… oh and you should pay close attention too my lord as this is what is expected of you when you dance with Lady Elizabeth." Sebastian then said and started the dance. It seemed to be a simple one but still Amy didn't look up to face Sebastian, she was looking down at her feet making sure she didn't step on him or lost the timing of the dance. "One, two, three, four, now twirl, and one, two, three, four, don't step on his feet… " Amy thought. "One, two, th-" But before she could finish counting she felt Sebastian's gloved hand gently push her up. Amy's eyes widen, as her emerald orbs met with Sebastian's crimson ones and he gave her a smirk. "Now young mistress you mustn't forget to always look at your partner as you dance… if you don't the gentleman will think you're not enjoying yourself and take it as an insult." He told her as he twirled her once more. Amy quickly nodded, gluing her eyes to Sebastian's and causing a small frown to form in her face as she struggled to keep the count of the dance without looking at her feet. She then gasped as she stepped on Sebastian's feet and tripped herself, falling on top of him. She then heard Sebastian sigh as Ciel snickered at her failed attempt at dancing. "It doesn't matte, I didn't even want to dance in the first place…" She thought with tears filling her eyes as Sebastian help her stand up straight and Ciel continued to snicker. "Look, my Young Mistress, your dancing abilities are not so much lacking… " Sebastian then said and Amy looked up with hope in her eyes as Ciel instantly shut up. Maybe he would say she only needed practice and she would get better and then Ciel wouldn't be able to laugh at her never again for not being able to dance.

"As they are none existent, my young mistress."

But then Sebastian said that and her hope filled look died as Ciel snickered once more. "I mean you simply cannot just grasp to your partner for dear life and frown as you move stiffly, mistress. You need to move with them as well, smile, and actually dance." Sebastian then continued and Amy turn to give him her back as tears started to fall from her cheeks. But then when she thought it couldn't get any worse Ciel stopped laughing and said something. Something that made her angry and snap in her mind.

"Don't tell me you're going to cry now? Come on stop it and try it one more time so I can have a turn at it as well."

"I can't do this… I'm done with all of this. Screw it." Amy wasn't going to put herself through more embarrassment and listen to her brother laugh at her or go and humor Lizzy. She wasn't going to put up with him being cruel and mean and rude when she asked him something. She wasn't going to wait for the real Ciel to come back either because it was clear he wasn't and she was done waiting. She was done trying so hard to get him to be how he was before all the bad stuff in their lives happened, she was done trying to understand all the secrets he was hiding, she was done with the stupid bionic butler and his weird pink eyes, she was just tired and she had made a decision. For tonight, she was going to go upstairs to the library, grab a book, curl up in her favorite chair, and forget about everything as she read of many adventures and characters. She would forget the stupid dancing and her stupid brother and his stupid inhuman butler and just let everything fuck itself. Then she was going to go pack her things and go back to staying with Madame Red because, heck she was tired and she wanted to have some normalcy once again.

She was done.

"You know what? I am going to cry. I've tried so hard… but it just isn't enough. You are so cruel and so mean… and no matter what I do you just don't change or care for that matter." Amy then told Ciel as tears ran down her face like waterfalls. "I am tired of waiting for you to go back to being my brother… I am tired of your new butler being so weird and looking like he is going to eat someone at any time. I am tired of all of your secrecy… but most of all I am tired of pretending that everything is alright and that things will fix themselves because they clearly aren't and you know what? I am done with everything, but most of all you. I am done with you. I am leaving tomorrow so excuse me but I've got no time for dances I've got to go call Madame Red and pack." And saying all of that, still crying, Amelia ran out of the library, leaving an amused Sebastian and a wide eyed Ciel starring after her.

She then continued to run until she reached her room and quickly entered locking the door behind her. She opened her closet and started throwing all of her dresses, shoes and other clothes into her bed. She then kneeled beside her bed and reached for a suitcase she had under it. She struggled to carry it and place on her bed as well but once she did she quickly put all of her belongings inside of it. She then closed her suitcase and sighed as she walked towards the window. "It's raining…" Amy thought as she watched droplets of water drip on the glass. She then opened the window and let her hand out, shivering as the cold water collided with her skin.

"Of all the times, it rains now?"

You see Amy hated the rain. It wasn't just because it was hard to see in it with all the water getting in your eyes or because it got your clothes all wet, or because of the terrifying thunder that came with it. Because yes, she hated all of that but the real reason she hated it was because when she was younger she'd tried to go out and play in it like Lizzy, Ciel, and Lizzy's brother had been one day in the garden. But because Amy had always had weak health, just like her mother, after a while she started feeling extremely cold as well as having trouble breathing and just collapsed in the ground. After that she'd spent a whole two months bed ridden, most days with a fever, and they had to call a doctor about twice every week because she struggled to breath on her own sometimes. Needless to say her parents had her never going out in the rain ever again, not that she'd want to, and they also had whoever was with her have a coat and umbrella at hand at all times just in case it rained, which it did frequently as they did live in London, or in the outskirts of it al least.

"Meow!"

Amy was suddenly brought out of her thoughts as she heard that. "It definitely came from outside…" She thought as she looked down from her window into the garden's bushes. Because of the rain she struggle to find anything for a little while until finally she saw something move and gasped as she realized what had made the sound. There was a little white kitten stuck in one of the rose bushes. His little leg seemed to be badly as well because of the thorns and it was crying loudly. "I can't just leave him there… he would die…" Amy said to herself, thinking back on the day she had gotten sick. The little kitten reminded her of herself back then, hurt and helpless, and she couldn't help but wonder if she would of died that day as well had Lizzy's brother not carried her back inside fast enough. So next thing she knew, Amy found herself walking down the stairs determined to save the small animal trapped under the bushes.

As she walked she suddenly stopped in front of the ball room, hearing laughter as well as some singing, and a violin being played. "Maybe I overreacted a bit… should I apologize?" Amy thought, contemplating whether or not she should go in. But, finally after a while of thinking, she then shook her head no and turned around. Even if she had overreacted she still thought it would be better if she spent a few days away from the manor. And anyways, she had a little kitty to rescue. And so, Amy continued on her way, until she found herself outside, being hit by the hard water droplets falling from the sky and shivering from the howling wind. It was so cold and hard to see… but that didn't stop her. Covering her eyes with one hand, she then ran towards the bush and kneeled in front of the kitten who kept on crying as she quickly freed his leg and scooped with up with her arms.

"Meow! Meow!"

"Shhh…It's alright, your safe now."

Amy then started getting up but she suddenly felt really dizzy and fell down on the ground again. She tried to get up once more but it just made her dizzier and before she knew it she found herself struggling to catch her breath. "I'm so cold, and I can't breath… just a little longer. I'll make it" She thought while she tried to crawl towards the manor. She crawled and crawled, every time getting more painful and harder to breath, until she could no more. Was she really going to die there, alone in the rain? She hadn't even gotten to see Madame Red one last time or to apologize to Ciel. She didn't want her last word with her brother to have been hateful ones. She didn't want to leave him alone, she didn't want to make make Madame Red cry because of her, she didn't want to leave Finny, Bard, May-Rin, and Tenaka behind, she didn't want to leave that one book about a doctor an a centric detective unfinished.

Most of all she didn't want to die.

But as she got colder and colder and started to loose feeling around her legs and arms, tears starting rolling down her cheeks knowing the inevitable was happening. She coughed and gasped for air, and hugged the little kitten she had tried to rescue closer to herself. She then tried to lift her head a little to have one last look of the manor, the house she had lived in her whole life, where she had lived with her parents happily, where she had read her first book, learned how to walk, ate her first meal, pranked Ciel countless times, ran through it's hallways spying on others, watched it burn and be rebuild, where she had cried and laughed, and yelled, and whispered… the house that held so many memories dear to her and found herself smiling one last time at what she saw. From where she was laying, she got a perfect view of the window of the ballroom. She could see Ciel and Lizzy dancing happily, while Finny, Bard, Mey-Rin, and Tenaka, who were standing in a corner of the room and still wearing those silly rabbit ears and frilly clothes Lizzy forced on them earlier, watched with a smile on their faces. Grell, who was wearing a long white dress, seemed to be singing next to Sebastian, who was playing the violin by the foot of the stairs and smirked watching her brother and Elizabeth dance. And so, as her eyes started to get heavier and heavier, and she took her last ragged breaths, Amy couldn't help but think that maybe she wouldn't be able to apologize, or say goodbye to Ciel and her aunt. Maybe she wouldn't be able to laugh at those four morons as they did their shenanigans and follow Sebastian around when he wasn't looking. And maybe she wasn't going to finish reading her book. But that was all okay because at least he got to see them all one last time,and they looked happy, which was enough for her. She could die, then and only then.

"Mom… Dad… I'm finally going to see you again."

That was the last thing she thought, before everything turned black.

...
