Chapter 2

        When we finally arrived at the manor, Sebastian was the first one out. I pulled off his jacket and folded it carefully. Ciel climbed out with the help of Sebastian, I followed shortly. The manor was huge, I'm sure I would get lost in it.


        "Oh, um Sebastian would you like this back?" I poked at Sebastian's arm.


        "If you're still cold you can keep it for a little longer." Sebastian smiled as he closed the door of the carriage.


        "Thanks, but I'm sure I won't need it." I smiled back handing the jacket to him.


        Ciel walked up to the big doors in front of us as the servants were putting the carriage into the horse stables. Sebastian opened one of the big doors for us and we walked in. Sebastian took Ciel's hat, coat and cane then hung them up. Ciel began to walk up the main staircase.


        "Um Sebastian, what are we going to do today?" I asked shyly as I looked around.


        Sebastian pulled a little at my cardigan. "Wha- Oh, here." I took off my cardigan and hat and handed them to him.


        "Well, I could teach you how to make the perfect cup of tea." Sebastian smiled as he hung my stuff up.


        "Okay, that doesn't sound too bad." I smiled back.


        As we walked around the manor, I noticed some portraits of the Phantomhives hanging around, but there was a place where a big painting had been hung that was no longer there. We were about to enter the kitchen doors when all of a sudden there was a big crash coming from inside it. Sebastian burst open the doors and I followed carefully behind him. The red-haired servant was lying on the floor on a bed of broken plates and cups.


        "Mey-Rin, we just got here and you're already breaking things?!" The muscular servant fumed as he chewed on the end of a cigarette. Some welding goggles hung around his neck loosely.


        "I'm sure Mister Sebastian will make everything better! Right Sebastian?" The cute servant with the gardening hat said gleefully.


        "These three here are Mey-Rin, Finny, and Bardroy." Sebastian said annoyed as he loosened his tie a little agitated, "The old man over there is Tanaka."


        "Pleased to meet you, I'm ________" I curtsied and smiled.


        "________  will be working with me. She is new here and will need to learn how to do things elegantly." Sebastian looked over at me and gave me a smile.


        "Sebastian will teach you well, I know so!" Mey-Rin said as she sat up.


        "You're hair is really pretty, ________ !" Finny ran over to me and twirled a strand of my (e/c) hair around his fingers.


        "Don't be bothering her! We have a mess to clean right Sebastian?" Bardroy inquired as he picked Finny up by the collar of his shirt.


        "Right...now then, don't burn down the house while I'm teaching her." Sebastian said eyeing all of them in a threatening manner. All three gulped and quickly ran around trying to find a dust pan and broom.


        "You can wait for me in the lounge room, I will need to get everything ready." Sebastian smiled as he gently patted my shoulder. I nodded and left the kitchen and walked down the long hallway.


        After entering the wrong rooms I finally found the lounge. I opened the door and found Sebastian already in there.


        "Oh! You scared me!" I exclaimed.


        "I didn't mean to frighten you my lady." Sebastian bowed.


        'Great, in a room....alone with Sebastian.....' I walked over to the big tea tray in front of Sebastian and stood next to him.


        "When serving guests tea, you should always put one spoonful for each person and another for flavor." Sebastian said smoothly as he scooped out three spoon fulls of tea and put it in the small strainer inside the tea pot.


        "You have to make sure the water is boiling hot." Sebastian poured hot water into the teapot over the tea leaves.


        Sebastian then allowed the tea to soak a little, then he poured the tea into two tea cups.


        "Sugar?" Sebastian asked taking the lid off the sugar bowl.


        "Yes, just one spoonful please." I replied as my (e/c) eyes watched his movements like a cat. Sebastian noticed me watching him and he smirked a little.


"Cream?" He asked stirring the sugar into my cup.


        "Yes please!" I gleefully clapped my hands a little. Sebastian poured cream into the cup and handed it to me along with a saucer.


        "Thank you." I smiled and took a small sip of the tea.


        The tea was Earl Grey, it wasn't too hot or too cold, not too strong and had just the right amounts of flavor, cream and sugar. The tangy, citrus-y strong flavor of the Earl Grey made me feel tingly.


        "Well? How is it?" Sebastian smiled and watched me.


        "It's lovely!" I replied smiling happily.


        "Would you like to try now?" Sebastian asked as he gestured to an empty tea pot and cup.


        "Hmm.....sure, why not?" I replied shrugging my shoulders as I set the cup back down onto the tea cart. I reached for a spoon, and picked up the canister of tea leaves. I pulled at the lid but it wouldn't come off.


        "Need some help?" Sebastian began to reach for the canister.


        I pulled at hard as I could, when suddenly the lid flew off and tea leaves fluttered all over the place! I watched the lid as time seemed to slow dramatically it smacked Sebastian on the nose.


        "Oh my gosh!" I exclaimed as I put down the small silver spoon and canister down.


        I stood on my tip toes in front of Sebastian with a white linen napkin. His nose looked a little red so I dipped the end of the napkin in a glass of cold water and got close to his face and began dabbing his nose a little. His ruby red eyes caught mine and turned pink for a second. I stared back into his eyes with my (e/c), shinning, eyes. I stopped dabbing his nose as he put his arms around my waist and pulled me closer to him. I blinked, and I was suddenly pinned to the wall by Sebastian.


        "You should learn not to tease a demon." Sebastian said as he held my wrists above my head only using one hand. My face turned bright red, and a bead of sweat formed on my cheek.


        "Uh...I wasn't trying to...." I gulped as I was still unable to look anywhere else except for his pink, cat-like eyes.


        Sebastian ran his index finger down the middle of my chest. I let out a little squeal, closed my eyes and looked away from the shock.


        "You're just like a little kitten aren't you?" Sebastian said as he leaned in closer to my face. "So innocent and curious....." Sebastian licked his bottom lip, "So sweet." Sebastian continued as his breath left a trail of goosebumps across my flesh.


        I had my eyes shut tightly, and tried not to do anything. Sebastian trailed his fingers down my side slowly and gently.


        "S-Sebastian...." I tried to tell him to stop, but I only winced at the thought.


        "What's wrong my little kitten? You don't want to play with the big, bad demon?" I could feel Sebastian's hot breath against my skin.


        I opened my eyes to find him an inch from my face, his eyes were still sparking pink and he had a devilish smirk on his face. Sebastian twirled my (e/c) hair around his finger and caressed my cheek. I looked at him with my (e/c) eyes as he got closer. I could smell the sweet scent of roses and tea hanging around us, Sebastian's raven black hair tickled my jawline as he kissed my lips. His lips were soft like rose petals and-


        The lounge doors burst open, and Mey-Rin appeared in the doorway. I blushed bright red as he quickly broke the kiss and let me go. Sebastian quickly pretended to brush tea leaves off of me.


        "You should be careful next time my dear ______." Sebastian said concerned yet his eyes were showing an empty hunger.


        "Hello Mr.Sebastian and Lady _______!" Mey-Rin chimed as she walked into the room.


        'She didn't see what happened!'


        "I hope I'm not bothering you but, Master Ciel would like to have dinner early this evening with Lady El-" Mey-Rin got cut off by Sebastian.


        "I know, we were just finishing up." Sebastian chuckled in amusement.


        I blew a strand of hair from in front of my face, "Hmph."


        "We will just meet you in the kitchen later, let us clean up." Sebastian said as he began to put everything back onto the tea cart.


        "Of course mister Sebastian!" Mey-Rin bowed a little, allowing her glasses to almost fall off. She dizzily walked out of the room and shut the door.


        "Have you learned your lesson for today love?" Sebastian looked over at me and smirked as he adjusted things. I glared at him a little and straightened out my apron, knocking a few more tea leaves off.


        'What nerve! He practically violated me a minute ago and is now acting calm and collected! I guess he really is a demon...'
