I Want You To Want Me

~Chapter Eight~

You woke up to the familiar voice of Lord Druitt talking about your eyes. Is he trying to sell me? You thought. You listened in to what he was saying and you thought correctly. He was trying to sell you, but there is one thing you are that he isn't.
Half demon.
Your eyes flashed pink making all the candles go out. You grabbed two of the bars of the cage you were in and pulled them apart, just enough for you to fit through. At this point people were muttering quite loudly. You slowly walked over to the Viscount Druitt and tapped his shoulder. He quickly turned around and looked at you, surprised.

"It's not nice to kidnap ladies, didn't your mother ever tell you that?" You asked all innocently before you quickly knocked him out. You were more than angry. You were furious. Your eyes were still pink as you went around knocking people out. You were muttering words under your breath before someone grabbed you from behind, causing you to turn around, only to be met by more pink eyes. You blinked as your eyes went back to normal.

"You can put me down now." You sighed. And he did so.

"That was dangerous Mistress."

"I didn't WANT to be kidnapped." You rolled your eyes. Footsteps could be heard walking towards the door of the room you were in. The door opened and the lights turned on.

"Are you okay Lady [Y/N]?" Ciel asked from the door, Sebastian standing behind him.

"I've been better. But thank you for asking." You smiled. You turned your head slightly to your right.

"Let's get out of here Jack before they try to sell me again." You muttered. Ciel and Sebastian turned around and walked out of the door. You looked around and realised Lizzie wasn't with them.

"She's back at the manor, complimenting other guests on their dresses. Again." Ciel said as he noticed you searching for Elizabeth.

"I apologise for causing so much trouble." You muttered. Ciel chuckled.

"It is I who should be apologising for getting you into this mess"

"Ciel Phantomhive? Apologising? Never been heard of!" You exclaimed in a joking manor, making Ciel smile a small smile and look down. The rest of the trip back to the manor was quiet. No one spoke. You and Ciel occasionally shared glances.
When you final arrived to the Phantomhive manor Sebastian opened the door and everyone's heads turned to look at you. Soon there was a lot of chatter, but no ones eyes left from where you were standing.

"Why are they staring?" You whispered to Ciel. Ciel looked confused at you before clearing his throat. Everyone stopped chatting before they all started cheering. Elizabeth came running towards the both of you.

"I told them [Y/N]!" Elizabeth clapped. You had totally forgotten about telling everyone about who you were.

"Told them what?" Ciel asked.

"That I'm her sister." You laughed nervously. Sebastian started playing the violin, causing everyone to look away and dance for the second time. Ciel held his hand out but didn't look at you. You looked over at Lizzie, only to notice she was gone again. You blushed and placed your hand on his carefully.

"If you try and sell me I'm going to be very angry." You smiled. Ciel chuckled. There was always this silence with you and Ciel yet it was always comforting. You rested your head on Ciel's shoulder.

"Why the sudden interest in dancing?" You questioned.

"This ball is about you, after all." You smiled to yourself slightly, and found yourself enjoying the dance more than you would've liked. You were brought out of your thoughts when you saw Madam Red.

"What's Aunt Red doing here?" You questioned. That's when Ciel told you about the investigation. You looked away when Ciel mentioned that he thought that the Viscount Druitt was Jack the Ripper. You knew Madam Red had something to do with it but you didn't know what. You and Madam Red had something in common. You both envied someone else. She envied her sister, the same way you envy Lizzie. Madam Red must've noticed that the conversation you and Ciel were having was serious and somewhat to do with the case as she came over.

"[Y/N]? What a lovely surprise. I didn't expect to see you here!" She exclaimed as she hugged you.

"Aunt Red!" You acted surprised as you hugged her back, looking at Ciel. His facial expression showed no emotion as you let go of Madam Red. She gave you a serious look before she waved goodbye and went off.

"What was that look about?" Ciel asked. You mentally cursed to yourself.

"What look?" You asked confused. You hated lying to Ciel. You hated having to lie but it was necessary. Ciel stared at you for a bit before brushing it off and walking away. You sighed, earning a few looks from people. You gave them a smile as you walked into the garden.

"Is everything okay Mistress?" You heard Jack as you from behind.

"Today has been a long night. I wish to go home. Now." You said, anger clear in your voice. Jack bowed.

"As you wish, Your Majesty." Jack said as he picked you up and started running towards the Midford Manor. No one knew Jack was a demon besides you and Grell, but there was no doubt Grell told Madam Red. Everything was becoming a mess since you met Ciel and you didn't know what to do about it all, except sleep. When you got to the manor, a maid helped you get changed into your nightgown and you went straight to sleep.

You woke up to Jack pulling the curtains open, which you rarely woke up to.

"Good morning Young Mistress, you have received a letter this morning." Jack said as he handed you a tray with a letter placed neatly on it. You sat up, painfully, and read the letter.

"The Queens Eyes?!" You growled as you threw the letter across the room, Jack catching it.

"She's labelled me The Queens Eye's. Why can't she label Elizabeth that?" You muttered to yourself. Jack said nothing as he handed you your cup of tea.

"What's my plan for today Jack?" You asked as you sipped your tea.

"You've been ordered to work with Lord Phantomhive on the Jack the Ripper case." Jack said as he collected the empty cup from you and helped you get changed, changing your bandage too.

"When will I be leaving? And will Elizabeth be okay on her own?" You asked as you looked in the mirror, leaving your hair covering your left eye.

"After breakfast. And Lady Elizabeth will be staying at a friends for the time being."

"Very well. Let's get this over and done with." You mumbled as you headed to the dining room for breakfast.
