The heat of the oven rushed out to your face as you opened it to check the curry buns. 'Just a tad bit longer' you thought to yourself with a smile, closing the oven once more. The young master had requested, more like demanded, that he have some as soon as possible. You didn't mind because you were thankful Sebastian took the time to teach you how to make them, therefore you sometimes make yourself one behind their backs. A little treat for yourself wouldn't hurt every once in a while you knew good and well Ciel and Sebastian both would have a fit if they found out. So, it's your own little secret. :3

Once they were finished, you brought them out of the oven and gave them a few minutes to cool. Once cooled, you looked around and peeked out the kitchen door. No one was around. Yes! Scurrying back to the buns, you quickly ate the small one you made specifically for yourself. Once you were finished, the bell for Ciel's study rang impatiently and so you ran straight up as if you were a bullet.

Upon approaching the big door, Sebastian had walked out. He was about to greet you until he chuckled lightly. You cocked your head to the side with a raised brow.

"Um...what is so funny, Mr. Sebastian?" You had always called him that, figured it respectful for some reason. You do appreciate all that he does around here, he deserves to be respected.

"Oh, nothing out of the ordinary" he says with a knowing smile. He then strolls by you and all you could do was be confused. Shrugging it off, you knocked on the heavy door.

"Come in" the Earl's voice could be heard from the other side and you blushed, your long-term crush on him getting the best of you. Clearing your throat, you walked inside.

"Your curry buns, master" you say, smiling wide at him as you strolled over to his desk and placed them in front of him. He continued to look down at his papers but he was biting his lip as a blush crept onto his cheeks. Ciel, as usual, kept his usual annoyed tone though.

"Why did it take you so long to make them? Surely it doesn't take that long to make curry buns" he stated, his tone a bit impatient. Panicking, you began to stuttering.

"U-Uh, well-"

"Oh? What is this?" Ciel looked up from his work at you with a smirk and gets up from the wooden desk. Approaching you, he takes a good look at your face. "Now, what on Earth is on the corner of your mouth? Crumbs, is it?"

'THAT'S WHY SEBASTIAN CHUCKLED, OH MY, I'M A GONER!' You thought as panic reeled through you furthermore.

"Well, uh, sir...you see...I..." You fumbled over your words, trying to find an explanation. The young Earl put a hand up to stop your rambling.

"No need to explain. I've caught you red handed." He said but then looked at you with a smirk. "But because you are rather cute, I'll let you off with a warning." You sighed in relief, a ton of weight lifting off you.

He walked towards you and he leaned in close and whispered. "Don't let it happen again." Ciel then gave a light peck on your cheek and proceeded to leave the study to attend to other business that needed to be took care of. Your face was the color of a tomato as you were frozen in place.

Wh-What just happened...?
