The Raven and the Cat (Sebastian X Reader)

Chapter 2- The Party

Sebastian's POV

I awake the young master as always and the afternoon goes by swiftly and before I knew it the evening arrived. I got my Young Lord ready for the party and summoned a carriage immediately. The (L/N) mansion was half an hour away from the Phantomhive Estate which is not bad for traveling distance. Soon after, we arrived, and I helped my Lord out of the carriage.

The place was beautifully decorated. The young lord was greeted by Earl (L/N).

"Ciel, I'm so glad you were able to attend."

"Me too. Congratulations to your daughter."

"Thank you."

That's when we heard a familiar high pitch voice. We looked to see a pink dress and a blonde-haired young girl; it was Elizabeth Midford. She hugged Ciel with all her might that I thought she crushed his ribs and with her yelling at the top of her lungs.

"Ciel!"

"Elizabeth?!"

"Ciel, I told you so many times, call me Lizzie."

"Lizzie, you know this family?"

"Yes, their daughter is one of my friends. I'll introduce you to her."

She then turned her attention to me.

"Sebastian, you can come along too."

I smiled and bowed politely.

She dragged him behind her, and I followed close behind them. I soon saw the young woman she was talking about. I saw a girl with mid-back long brown and blonde ombre hair and lavender purple eyes wearing a black dress, red pendant, black lace gloves, and a black cat mask. This party was a masquerade ball. It made sense for everyone to wear masks. I put on my mask and handed the young earl his mask as well. My chest began to hurt so, I brought my hand to my chest where my heart was and felt it beating rapidly.

Your Dress:

Your pendant:

Your gloves:

Your Mask:

'How is this possible? I'm a demon so, how is my heart beating? She's so beautiful but, why is my heart beating so fast?'

I thought to myself.

Ciel's POV

Lizzie pulled me to see a young woman and I looked at Sebastian. He was clenching his chest rather tightly, his eyes were wide, and was blushing. I smiled thinking that I was right about demons having human emotions like love. Lizzie introduced us.

"(Y/N), over here."

She turned and smiled warmly then walked over. She hugged Lizzie and said hello.

"Hello, Ciel. It's so nice to meet you."

"Pleasure is all mine, my lady. Sebastian, would you introduce yourself?"

Reader's POV

I looked at the tall man in a butler uniform that had red eyes and raven jet black hair. I immediately started to blush.

'Wow, he is incredibly handsome and young.'

I thought. He spoke in a calm, soothing, and slightly shaky voice as if he was nervous to speak to me.

"Hello, my lady. I'm Sebastian Michaelis. It is an honor to meet you."

He held out his hand and I accepted it then he kissed the back of my hand. I giggled causing him to slightly blush pink on his cheeks even more than before.

"It's nice to meet you too. I'm (Y/N) (L/N)."

"What a beautiful name for a beautiful young woman."

I blushed at the compliment. Lizzie pulled the Young Master elsewhere continuing to yell her lungs out. I swear she'll lose her voice one of these days and it would be peaceful for once. I began talking with the handsome butler in front of me.

"Well, how long have you been a butler for the Young Phantomhive?"

"A few years. Congratulations on college. What do you plan to do with your life?"

"Thank you. I plan to become a doctor may be but, I have learned to play guitar, drums, and keyboard here and there along the way."

"Wow, when did you start learning to play those instruments?"

"I learned when I was six years old. What about you? Can you play any instruments?"

"Piano and violin."

The conversation went on for a while and soon the dancing began.

"It seems like we're the only two people without partners."

Sebastian held out his hand to me. I knew he wanted to dance with me, and I gladly took his gloved hand.

Sebastian's POV

The waltz began and I danced with (Y/N). We twirled around and her black sparkly dress would sway beautifully and glisten in the light. I couldn't help but, stare into her lavender eyes and she did the same to me. The dance was soon over, and Sebastian went to fetch beverages. He soon came back with two glasses of lemonade.

Reader's POV

The party was very bright and lively. Soon, Sebastian and Ciel had to leave. I say my goodbyes to the young boy and hugged the butler. He wraps his arms around me holding me close for a few seconds. We release each other from the embrace, and I hand him a slip of paper with my number on it.

"If you want to talk with me sometime Sebastian, give me a call when you're free."

Sebastian smiled.

"I certainly will."

They both left leaving me and my family alone. I watch as the carriage rides away off in the distance.

'What a gentleman Sebastian is.'

I head inside to help the servants clean up. Even when we have maids and butlers to do the work, I like to help. But little did we all know is that would be the last time I would be with the servants and my parents.
