I Want You To Want Me

~Chapter Nine~

"Ciel? It's a pleasure to see you here but may I ask why the sudden visit?" You asked as you sat down opposite Ciel by the dining room table. Elizabeth was still nowhere to be seen. Ciel held up a letter.

"I'm sure you received something of the sort." Ciel smirked. You nodded.

"I did indeed, but it's your investigation so lead the way."

~~~

"I hate London. It is not the most pleasant place for me to be." You sighed as you were in the carriage with Ciel going to his London Town House.

"It's not that bad Young Mistress." Jack said from next to you. Ciel was sitting opposite you and Sebastian was driving the carriage. You didn't say anything as you got a small mirror out and fixed your hair, making it cover the right eye this time. Ciel said nothing as he glanced at you and back out the window.
The carriage suddenly stopped and you sighed in relief. The carriage door opened and Sebastian helped Ciel out. Jack got out and helped you out.

"Thank you." You smiled as Jack bowed. Sebastian led the way into the town house only to be greeted by Madam Red and Lau. It was late by the time you left the manor due to the fact no one knew where Elizabeth was. Later on a servant told you she was already at a friends, so by the time you arrived to the Town House you were more than tired. You ignored the chit chat and spaced out, staring at Ciel in the process.
You were brought out of your thoughts when you heard someone clear their throat next to you. You jumped slightly and turned your head.

"Is there something wrong, M'lady?" Sebastian asked as he acted innocent.

"I'm just tired. Nothing to stress about." You said, avoiding any other topic.

"Your room is this way." You could practically hear the smirk. You glared as you got up and followed Sebastian to your room, wondering where Jack had got to. Sebastian bowed and left as you thank him. The wound wasn't as bad so you could get dressed on your own without needing help.
Soon you were in your nightgown, ready to sleep when a thought hit you about the case. You and Ciel were talking about the case on the carriage ride over.

"It was impossible for a human." You said out loud.

"What was that, Your Majesty?" Jack said from the outside of your room. You jumped slightly as he opened the door.

"Don't do that and take me to Ciel's room." You ordered. Jack bowed.

"As you wish."

Jack led the way and you were getting excited. You thought of something that could be possible. Jack knocked on the door for you and you both waited. Sebastian opened the door, slightly surprised to see you both at this time of night.

"Is Ciel asleep?" You asked, feeling slightly guilty.

"The Young Master has just gotten ready for his slumber but he is still awake."

"Who is it?" You heard Ciel mumble.

"Lady [Y/N]."

"Let her in." Sebastian didn't say anything as he opened the door wider for you. Jack walked in, but stayed by the door.

"Is everything okay?" Ciel asked, looking slightly worried.

"It was impossible for any human being who attended the ball to be Jack the Ripper." You said. Ciel's froze for a second.

"Sebastian." Ciel growled.

~~~

"I hate London." You muttered, repeating those same three words.

"Is there something wrong, Miss [Y/N]?" Sebastian asked as he had been listening to you mutter to yourself for the past four minutes.

"I'm fine. It's just cold and I hate London." Sebastian was about to make a slight sarcastic remark when a scream broke the silence of the London street. Ciel rushed over while you were too stunned to move. You blanked out, and were brought back to reality when Grell started brushing out his hair and putting fake eyelashes on. You weren't exactly in the right state of mind to hear what they were saying but you caught bits. Grell, the Grim Reaper. Your heart stopped when Madam Red walked out. You had to use every ounce of strength to stop yourself from screaming, and then everything happened so suddenly. Madam Red screaming. Grell aiming a chainsaw at Sebastian.
