Aurora was in her room in the Phantomhive Manor, a tear escaped her eye. Her poor father was dead now. She was had been working for Ciel for not too long. She had taken to the role of house keeper quite well.  She felt much better after a week of Sebastian's helpful instruction. The butler was quite charming she had to admit, a blush crossed her cheeks as she thought about the butler in flagrante. He was a gorgeous man, that was not something she could deny. She could admire him from afar, as she knew he had a previous lover, one he had not gotten over. And... of course said lover looked strikingly similar to her. From looks to personality. The poor man, she would have fallen for him if she were human as well. Aurora sat up and toyed with the signet ring of her father's, and put the silver chain around her neck to keep under her clothes. Her father would always be close to her. No matter what.


Aurora Magne walked through the halls, humming to herself when she walked into Sebastian. She smiled, "Oh hello Sebastian." She walked over to greet him. He turned to her and gave a short bow, "Good morning, Miss Magne. Did you sleep well?" Aurora gave anode, "Yes. Quite." She smirked, "I do believe I mentioned Monseiur Michaelis, you do not need to address me so formally." Sebastian chuckled, crimson eyes glittering with amusement. "Ah, yes. It appears I have forgotten. Please do forgive me." Aurora smiled, "It is alright." Sebastian joined her and Aurora blushed a bit at the closeness. Sebastian lead the way through the hall, going through the schedule. "We will have a guest this evening, I need everything in place for tonight." Aurora stood on her toes to get a good look. "This doesn't sound too hard," she said with a smile. "We could get this done within a few hours and still have time to spare." Sebastian nodded, "Yes. But you forget," he smirked slyly, "We have the rabble to deal with as well." As he said that, there was a loud crash that made Aurora jump. Sebastian chuckled, "Frightened, Aurora?" Aurora shook her head, "No! Not at all, Sebastian. Just a bit startled is all." Sebastian smiled and walked past her, "Oh? Very well then." He paused a few feet in front of her, "Well? Are you not coming to see what mess they have gotten into this time?" 


An hour or two had passed and Sebastian and Aurora were cleaning the kitchen. Aurora groaned, "Why does Bard have that damned flame thrower?" Sebastian sighed, "It is supposed to be for self defense purposes. But he can not cook very well." Aurora sat back on her knees, "Then why on earth is he employed as a chef?" Sebastian chuckled, "Your guess is as good as mine." Finny came running in suddenly, panting. "Mister Sebastian!" The butler groaned quietly, "What now?" Aurora looked over at the gardener. "What is the matter, Finny? Has something happened?" Finny was panting, "Mice.... Mice..." Aurora and Sebastian shared a look. "Finny, you and Bard clean the kitchen. Aurora and I will take care of it." Sebastian said shoving the cleaning brush at the boy before leading the way out of the room. "Aurora! Come along." Aurora frowned and stood, setting the brush she was using down before following after him. She reached up subconsciously to her neck and toyed with the silver chain that held her father's signet ring. She gasped when she and Sebastian entered the main hall. Sebastian looked like he might burst a blood vessel. "What on earth happened in here?!" The butler demanded. Mey-Rin and Bardroy, both running around with nets. 

"Mister Sebastian! Miss Aurora! We were just bringing in the provisions from Old Man Sam's, yes we were!" Bard finished for her, "The lot of 'em rushed in after a cat chased them inside. We're still trying to find the cat too." Aurora and Sebastian's eyes widened. "A cat?" Aurora asked. Sebastian's face paled a bit, "I will go locate the cat, Aurora- take care of this." Aurora watched the butler march out of the room and sighed, "Bard, Mey-Rin, go help Finny clean the kitchen. I can handle this." The two shared a look, but obeyed her. The moment they were gone, Aurora set to work, snatching up the pile of mice in seconds. When she finished, she brought the tiny creatures to the edge of the property and released them into the forest. When she returned to the manor, she ran into Sebastian who was playing with a pretty black she cat on the steps. Aurora smiled and walked over, chuckling. "Oh, how cute." She sat down beside Sebastian and the cat and the butler smirked, holding the cat in his arms, "Cute?" He asked. Aurora nodded, "Yes. You look adorable with that pretty little creature."
