Meet the Master

One month into this arrangement, and it was clear, Elizabeth wanted less of a bodyguard and more of a doll to play with, and when I agreed to be her friend, what I really agreed to was a world of ribbons and dresses. Don't get me wrong, lady Elizabeth is the best thing that could have ever happened to me, but I can only take so much dress-up.

"(Y/N), oh (Y/NNNNNNNN)," Elizabeth screamed, despite the fact that I'm only a few feet away from her, "Take a look at this! Look, look!"

She shoved a letter in my face, " Lady Elizabeth, I can't read this if it's in my face, but I'm happy to see you're so excited," I said, admittedly a bit curious.

"I told you to call me Lizzie, you silly goose!" She exclaimed, always on my case about her name. Taking the letter out of my face, she cleared her throat and began to read,

"Dear the Lady Elizabeth,

your fiance, Ciel Phantomhive, invites you to tea and dinner at the Phantomhive estate tomorrow in order to plan for a welcoming party for a new merchant that has enticed Queen. As the queen's guard dog, Lord Phantomhive has been assigned to this, but he does need help in order to appease the merchant. He saw no one more fitting to help him, bring whomever you believe to be necessary to plan this event, and we hope to see you tomorrow.

Sebastian Michaelis, head butler of the Phantomhive estate

Isn't this just wonderful, (Y/N)?" Lizzie squealed, "you can come with me, I've seen you get things ready for our parties in a jif, much faster than I could on my own, and as a plus, you can meet my fiance, and his delight of a butler, Sebastian!"

"I didn't know you were set to be married, Eliz-uh Lizzie, do you really love him, or is he a stuck-up asshole that I need to kick the shit out of?" I ask, hoping I can fight this guy, I haven't got to fight anything in a while and I was itching for that edge of adrenaline again.

"No, I care about him very deeply," Lizzie said with a small hue on her cheeks, "he's very fun to be around, something exciting like an adventure happens when he's around, so seeing him is always fun,"

"Ohhh, is our very own Elizabeth Midford in love???" I tease

Her cheeks glow deep red, "No it's not like that!" she waves her hands around bashfully and starts mumbling to herself.

"Well, alright," I say, still not fully believing her, "I'll help Paula with the packing for tomorrow, just tell us what kind of supplies you want for planning, and we'll get it ready," I bow, and exit the room.

'The Queen's guard dog, huh, I heard that he was the police of the underworld, some sort of bounty hunter. I wonder if there's more to this party than meets the eye...'

....

"(Y/N), come on," Lizzie spoke as she rushed me out of the carriage, "You have to meet Ciel, and I think you and Sebastian will get along wonderfully! You two have very similar personalities, and you have to learn to cooperate with them, since you'll be working on the party together."

"I get that Lizzie," I said, "But did you really have to dress me up for this??"

Lizzie said this morning that I had to look presentable for this guy, so she dressed me in an elaborate (F/C) dress that has a corset so tight that I wouldn't have enough breath to scream about it if I wanted to. She also put my (H/L) lair into a high ponytail(Ignore if you have short hair), and lightly curled it.

I feel ridiculous.

But, on the plus side, I got to carry a small dagger hitched to my thigh, and a visible sword hung around my waist, I told Lizzied that if I was gonna be her bodyguard, I should have to equipment necessary.

Ciel P.O.V.

"Young master," Sebastian called me from my paperwork, "The Lady Elizabeth is here, and she brought someone to help me with the arrangements," I looked up at the demon, and saw he had his usual smirk on his face, the one he knows I can't stand.

I scowl, "Why on earth would you need help, please. Elizabeth should know that you can handle this on your own, what's the point of dragging someone else into my life?"

"Well never the less," Sebastian said, "She has arrived, and you should greet her, and her guest."

"Very well," I sighed.

....

"CIIIIIEEEEEEEEELLLLL!!!!!!!!" Elizabeth screached, as she tackled me when I came down the stairs.

"Agh!"

When she finally gets off me, I notice a girl around our age with a sword around her waist, she had a steely look on her face, like she was looking for something in me-no, like she was looking for something in....Sebastian?

(Y/N) P.O.V.

'No, it can't be.... But those eyes, his master's eyepatch, it has to be a contract. The butler. He's a demon.'
