Third POV~
Cheerful sounds of kids playing could be heard from the mansion window looking down seeing two kids running around with a grown lady in a bright red dress she then grab them into a tight hug all three laughing at each other playfulness
A woman sitting in a chair not too far from the three gleamed at the sight of the children playing around with her younger sister but quickly her smile went down when she looked up from one of the windows that was looking down on them a small boy who looked exactly like the one playing with his dear aunt watching his family enjoying their presence in each other
He frown at the sight lonely is what he felt knowing he couldn't step outside without triggering his asthma and ruining the fun for his family he kept staring down at them in envy laughing having the time of their life
That is until a figure slowly crept up to him without a sound the boy quickly fall after he was hit on the back causing him to lose his footing falling off the chair
Before his body hit the floor a hand grab him stopping the fall and quickly pulling him back up standing on his two feet on the floor he saw the hands that grab him small chubby S/C hands soft as feathers pink soft sleeves covering her arms leading up to show a young chubby girl small smile on her face
His cheeks turn pink he holds on tightly to her hand with both of his small hands the girl Stare at him worried if he was hurt
" Are you alright? I saw Sebastian running up to you hitting with his snout causing the fall" she said placing one of her hands onto his pink cheeks the warmth he felt couldn't help but soak in the attention his dear fiance gave him
" I-I'm alright...just a little surprise that's all," he said softly holding onto her hand still
"Alright then how about we eat sweets in the kitchen I'm sure my maid will sneak us some desserts," she said leading him to where she whatever she was going
" But won't Tanaka find out though?" He asks anxiously to her
" Don't worry as long as we don't mention having any sweets before dinner to him okay?" She said as they reach the kitchen doors
" What are two doing?" A voice behind them sends chills down their spine slowly turn around to meet a child around their age who look exact copy of his fiance but as a boy
The girl pouted at the sight of her twin brother
Who looked rather displeased as the two are up to no good
" What are two doing exactly?" He asks again
The blue-haired boy looked down in shame knowing he was going to get in trouble while Y/N seemed rather annoyed by her sibling bothering them
" We just wanna grab a snack what so wrong about that dear brother?" She said giving off an innocent aura as she was absolutely sin free
The brother only sigh in disappointment at the fake act
He then proceeded to grab her cheeks pinching them harshly causing the girl to whine in pain when he let go she rub her face soothing the throbbing pain
" Do you take for a fool Y/N, you and I are twins of course I'm gonna know when you're lying and up to no good!"
The girl sighed in the defeat of her brother's wits she then proceeded to do the unthinkable
*Slam*
Sound of her brother hitting the floor and then taking her fiance's hand and running into the kitchen to see her maid baking shocked to see the two running into the kitchen
"Y/N I'm telling on you to mom!"
Her brother yelled through the hallway
" See if I care jerk!" She yelled back at him
Astre was feeling nervous about getting scolded by Tanaka but Y/N held his small hand assuring him not to worry
" Hey Isabella can you make sweets for us," she asks giving the puppy dog eyes to the maid
She almost fell for it but held her ground
" I wish I could but you can't have anything before dinner-" she said looking down at the girl but stopping when the child was giving the maid one of the coldest stares she had seen before the one like her Mother
The maid felt knives were pricking at her everywhere just by the gaze the child gave
" It wasn't a question and I want sweets for me and Astrue so go do it"
She said taking the boy with her out of the kitchen while the maid quickly snap out of it and began preparing various sweets for the children
The pair was sitting at the table near a big window showing the garden
" Do you think you were too harsh on her Y/N" Astre ask her the weight of guilt on his shoulders from earlier
Y/N simply stare off the garden watching butterflies gathering nectar from the flowers
" Yes but that maid is still new and should know better when to deny the orders of the mare family the same goes for you too Astre when we get married you will get the same respect as our parents "
she said almost too happily at the mention of the power
Astre felt worried since he knew the chance of him being able to step up to strength as his twin brother who most likely will take everything when he gets older
" I don't think I can be as strong as you Y/N I was just lucky enough to get engaged to you while Ciel is with Elisabeth maybe you will be better with Edward or someone else-" Astre stopped talking when Y/N grab both of his cheeks forcing him to face her
Her face was all of sudden serious and worry for her fiance
" Astre you have no idea how happy I am when I was told I'll be engaged with you since we met, barely spoke a word to each and before we started our playdates...I just knew I see myself with you every day Astre I couldn't have it either way!" She said letting go of his face now grabbing onto both of his hands her thumb rubbing his knuckles as a way to comfort him
Tears slowly fall down his face cheeks red and small sobs came to be heard no matter how hard he tried to cover them she brings him into a tight hug tears hitting her dress but didn't bother to push him away but a moment was ruined by a noisy lady
" My lady I have brought what you ask for" the maid came in with the cart of desserts stopping midway when the young girl was glaring down harshly at her she stood frozen in fear
A hand behind her grab onto her shoulder she jolted in a fear look behind seeing one of the head maids from the mare family she took the young maid away from the children sending in the butler in her stead instead
" Wipe those tears Astre let's enjoy these treats before Tanaka finds out shall we?" She said her hands wiping any tears left from his face nodding a smile now on his face as he watch the butler set down the pastries for the two
Noche POV
A knock was heard from the door I look up to Vincent who was also surprised to know who was knocking
It was just us two at his private office where we discussed the missions the Queen will give us
" It is rosemary may I come my lady?" A woman's voice was heard a thought came to mind it was the head maid I brought with me to the Phantomhive manor
Vincent looks at me in concern but I smile and wave it off to not worry about
" You may come in rosemary," I said going back to playing chess with Vincent
She came in dragging in a young maid by force she put a fight trying to break loose but she was stronger in keeping her from running she then throw her to the floor
" Rosemary, what is the meaning of this?" I ask standing up from my seat and walking toward the two
" I believe this young maid here was given too many chances it's best to let her go now-"
" Wait that's not fair what have done wrong to deserve this ah!" The young maid was caught off when I grab her by the bonnet she was wearing pulling it off and showing off the pearl earrings that she was covering
" Well would you look that Noche it seems you have theft sneaking around that's no good what shall we do with her dear?" He said wrapping his arms around me and smiling at the attention he gave I thought of the punishment I should give her
" Might I add my lady she also made your daughter quite upset twice already" she said
The young maid trembles in fear looking around for a chance to escape
" Is that so...well then can't have can we love Vincent?" I said glancing at him giving the puppy eyes that could bring anyone down on their knees
He chuckled rubbing my arms in a loving matter
" I believe my guard dogs don't mind having a treat or two for their good behavior today no?" He said smirking down at the fearful girl
"I believe you have wrong choice trying to steal and insult my family you have trespassed on death door, you insolent girl!"
