Chapter 10: Learning

Vivian's POV

I once again woke up with Ciel in the same bed. I remember him having a nightmare and I guess we fell asleep. He was still asleep so I carefully pulled myself away and left. Quite honestly we need to stop that.

Calmly, I had towards my room and open the door and I breathed thankfully that no one was along the corridor to my room. I crept in my room and dressed myself. I picked a black tank top, a black jacket, and black pants. I would have to get used to this century's clothing.

"Do you need help Young Miss?"

I jumped slightly "No, Lilith, I'm fine. I'm not helpless like Ciel."

Lilith chuckled darkly "So, how are things going with Ciel?"

Heat rose to my cheeks "That has nothing to do with you."

Lilith eyes flashed yellow "I think it does, mistress."

I held Lilith's gaze "It doesn't Lilith." Frost dripped from my words.

Lilith smiled "I guess it doesn't."

Silence blanketed the room until Lilith left. I sighed. What was going on with Lilith? She's been...different lately like something was stirring inside her sharp mind. The shadows weren't as safe as they used to be. Its just a simple game, Vivian I told myself. Yeah, a game I might lose. Dancing with a devil, figuratively ,was suicide.

I shook my head of the thoughts and concentrated on getting dress. I figured I'd try this century clothes on so I could get used to them. I dressed in a pair of black plants (quite comfy), a pair of black and white Vanity shoes ,and a nice white shirt that frilled out at the bottom. I guess this generation knows something about fashion.

I headed downstairs and ate breakfast while avoiding Ciel's occasional gaze. After Ciel left to work, I asked for Lilith to follow me and moved to the library.

" My lady, what is it that you need?" Lilith said as she closed the library door.

"Lilith, I need to know what has happened since I, uh, took a nap. If I go into public, I musn't look like an imbecile." I answered.

"Madam that might take all day, all lot has happened. Especially, if you want the real information like how WWII really started or who really assassinated President Kennedy."

"World War Two?" I asked severely confused.

"Yes, the first World War was called 'the war to end all wars" but that didn't really work out.Oh, I should show you pictures of the fashion over the ages. Some will make you claw your eyes out."

In the end, Lilith caught me up on everything that's happened over the century and I hated the 1980's. Lilith brought up lunch around 12:00 and we continued to delve into what was supposed to be my future. (I missed out on some really cool events) At dinner time, Lilith and I headed Dining room.

Before I sat down, Lilith asked a question "Mistress, how will you feel about going to school?" I sunk into the chair and processed what school entailed.

"I'll think about it, Lilith."

She nodded and headed for the kitchen.

"I've been to school a few times." Ciel said walking into the dining room.

"You listened to our conversation?"

Ciel grinned devilishly "Voices carry, Vivian."

I rolled my eyes and shook my head "Sure they do, Ciel"

"I'm serious though. You should go to school, there's a private school not to far from here."

I thought about it. Go to a school surrounded by hormonal teenagers, terrible food, and homework?

"Alright, I'll go."
