Ciel Phantomhive

When Ciel Phantomhive transferred to your class, he immediately caught your attention. Quiet, serious, and always impeccably dressed, he kept to himself. Most people avoided him, but you decided to befriend him.

Over time, Ciel grew accustomed to your presence, but one odd thing bothered you. The literature teacher, Sebastian, interacted with him in a manner that was anything but teacher-to-student. Sometimes it seemed as if Ciel was the one giving the orders.

One day after school, you saw them enter an empty classroom. Curiosity got the better of you, and you eavesdropped on their conversation.

Sebastian: Young master, today's report is ready.

Ciel: Fine. Leave it with me. And make sure no one finds out.

You froze in surprise.

Sebastian: As you command, Master Phantomhive.

At that moment you realized: Sebastian was not a teacher at all, but a butler.

But your breathing was too loud.

The door opened abruptly.

Ciel: How much did you hear?

Sebastian appeared behind him with a polite smile.

Sebastian: Looks like our little secret is out.

Ciel looked at you for a few seconds.

Ciel: So what should we do with you now?

You: I won't tell anyone!

Sebastian: That's what people usually say.

Ciel: What do you think?

Sebastian: Removing a witness is always the easiest thing to do.

Your heart skipped a beat.

Ciel thought for a moment, then chuckled.

Ciel: No. Let's keep her alive for now.
