(Y/N)'s P.O.V
"(Y/N), you must wear a corset for today's ball." Sebastian said as he pushed the corset into my arms.
"I am not wearing that! Why don't you wear it yourself! The you'll understand." I shouted as I gave him back the corset. Ciel just stared at the two of us bicker in front of his deck with a blank expression.
"It is improper for a lady not to wear a corset, especially for an event like this." Sebastian explained while rubbing his head.
"When was I ever proper?! I've worn dresses without corsets and it's been fine." I whined before looking to Ciel for help, "Ciel, you know how it feels to wear a corset! Tell Sebastian I don't have to."
Ciel spit out the tea he was drinking with a red face, "W-what?! I have nothing to do with this!" he exclaimed as he frantically waved his hands around before avoiding eye contact, " (Y/N), you can wear the dress without the corset." Ciel said.
"Ha in your face Sebby!" I mocked as I stuck my tongue out. Sebastian gave me a glare before turning to Ciel.
"Very well, Young Master. I will go get your clothing ready for this evening." Sebastian said before he left the room. I gave small 'thank you' smile to Ciel and left to go get ready too.
I went into my room and closed the door. I checked the one more time, a beautiful, black ,off the shoulder dress and put it on. I struggled buttoning the back but after a couple of tries, I managed to close it. I had about an hour till we left so I decided to go get some snacks. I mean, who knows what kind of food they have at the ball. After eating a couple slices of Sebastian's heavenly cake (and not messing up my makeup) I heard Ciel and Sebastian come downstairs.
"Seems we finished with 30 minutes to spare." Ciel said as he put his pocketwatch away.
"Oh cool. What are we going to be doing there exactly, Ciel?" I asked.
"We were invited by the head of that estate. If I don't go, I know he will keep pestering me until I do." Ciel said. I looked over at Sebastian and noticed he was in thought.
"What's wrong with you Sebastian?" I asked again as I nudged him softly. He gave a small smirk before speaking.
"Oh nothing, just thinking that you might be tired after dancing with those heels on. A proper lady wouldn't be but since you aren't, I wish you luck." Sebastian smugly said.
My eyes widened at what he just said. "What do you mean dance? I don't know how to dance! Well I do, but not the fancy waltzes and stuff like that. Do I have to?" I worriedly asked.

"You do. It is a formal event after all." Ciel started before looking at Sebastian with a mischievous glint in his eye, "But since Sebastian thought of it, he will give you some quick lessons before we go." Sebastian looked dumbfounded before complying. He let a barely noticeable frown as he took me by my hand and positioned ourselves. Ciel played the violin and suddenly we started to dance.
"Ah sorry Sebastian" I apologized as I stepped on his foot with my heel.
"It's okay. Now just look up. You can't dance and just stare at your feet. The male will lead you for the dance so you just have to go along with whatever he does." Sebastian said. I started to feel more comfortable and looked at Sebastian.
"Hey I think I am getting the hang of it Sebastian." I proudly exclaimed as I gave him a small smile.
"Indeed you are. I just wish you learned how to do your job as quickly like you dance ." Sebastian said with one of those fake smiles. I deadpanned before seeing him laugh a bit.
Oh shit that laugh was kind of hot.
I felt my ears start to get red and I stopped dancing. "Well that's enough for today! I think I got it, why don't we start going out now!" I hurriedly said before dashing to the carriage with Sebastian and Ciel behind me. No more thoughts like that (Y/N).
~Timeskip~
After some light teasing from Ciel, the long carriage ride was over and you stepped out. The manor had loud music coming out of it and people dancing inside. I walked in between of Ciel and Sebastian and knocked on the door. After a few moments, someone opened the door with an emotionless face.
"Lord Phantomhive, we are glad you could make it. Thank you for coming. May I ask who you are?" Claude said whilst his golden eyes looked over me.
I nervously looked at Claude. He wasn't the type to put up with bs and I didn't want him to kill me. "Oh.. uhm I am (Y/N) (L/N) and I'm Ciel's-"
"She's my friend."
"Very well then, please, come in" Claude said as opened the door wider so we could come in. Dazed, I still followed them inside and we walked by the snack table. Why didn't Ciel let me introduce me as one of his servants. I looked at Ciel and was about to ask him, but he looked so ticked off I decided to ask him later.
I looked around the room and noticed how beautifully decorated the room was. It seemed like the theme was gold and white with forget-me-not's on every table. Sebastian and Ciel talked amongst themselves and I went over to the snack table. Everything looked so delicious and I started to pile up food on the small plate.

"That's an awful lot of food for just one lady."
Slowly looking up, I was about to blow up on this person when I saw who it was. Alois Trancy stood there with a smug smirk obviously waiting for a response.
"Helloooo. Aren't you going to respond? Are you deaf?"
I got out of my trance and responded quickly. "Uhm no. I'm not deaf I was just surp-"
"Ahh good! Hey you came in with Ciel right?!" Alois excitedly asked.
"Yes I did. Why do yo-"
"What's your relationship?Is it romantic?" Alois said whilst excitedly waiting for an answer. I quickly shook my head.
"O-Of course not! Not even in a dream. I'm just his-"
"(Y/N) what are you doing talking to him?" Ciel interrupted with an obvious scowl on his face. I looked at Ciel and a disturbingly obsessive smile came on his face.
"Ciellll! It's been so long! I just met your friend here. We were just having a chat here, right (Y/N)?" Alois said while he looked at me.
"I guess one person talking is a conversation." I said as looked at Ciel, " You can talk to Earl Trancy and I'll go over there with Sebastian. Bye!"
I walked off and Ciel was about to come with me but Alois held him captive there with questions. I reached Sebastian and let a sigh of relief.
"It seems you met the Earl Trancy." Sebastian stated, not even looking at me.
"He's different in real life then from the anime. He looks a bit more intimidating. And if I was right, his shorts were even shorter." I said out loud, but more to myself still trying to process what happened.
"Interesting, " Sebastian started before looking at me, "Let's dance."
It wasn't even a question as he grabbed me by the arm and dragged me off to the main floor. Ladies looked at him with hearts in their eyes and then to me in envy. I started to get nervous with all the attention on me and decided to look at Sebastian's back. He soon stopped and positioned his arms.
"Remember what we practiced." Sebastian whispered into my ear before standing straight up again. The music started and everyone began to move gracefully. I stumbled at first and stepped on Sebastian's foot. A gloved hand brought me out of y thoughts as it grabbed my chin. Sebastian lifted up my face and gave a small smirk. "Look up at me" I felt an uncontrollable blush form on my cheeks as he stared at me "Red is a nice color on you.'
"S-shut up before I throw holy water on you, Sebastian" I grumbled out as I looked at him. Soon the spin came and I was switched off to another person. This time it was a much older guy, with a perverted face might I add, who took me to his arms. I uncomfortable danced with him as his hands roamed further south.
"Hey, that's not where you're supposed to have your hands. Keep em' up you old man" I scoffed out. The man didn't stop and when I about to beat the shit out of him, someone else came and spinned me away. I looked and saw Claude dancing with me.
Dumbfounded, I looked at him before looking down, " Thanks for that. You know, like getting e away from that guy. He was like a total creep and-"
"No problem." Claude curtly said as his golden eyes pierced my (E/C) ones. I gulped and we continued to dance gracefully, so graceful, that a crowd began to form around us. Claude didn't seem to mind but I started to get really nervous. The song was coming to an end and a huge crowd was around us by then. Suddenly, I lost my footing, and waited for the impact of the floor, but it never came. Claude had me in a position and it looked like he was dipping me. The crowd clapped and he brought me back up. He gave me a small bow and I gave a clumsy curtsy. He soon walked off and the crowd dispersed.
"Seems like you had fun." Ciel said out of nowhere. I jumped and quickly turned around.
"You dick! Don't scare me like that!" I loudly exclaimed. Ciel gave a small smile before we were joined by Sebastian, Alois, and Claude.
"(Y/N), it seems like Claude took a liking to you. Right Claude?" Alois said as he looked at Claude. Claude had no expression on his face and he didn't answer. the three of us deadpanned and looked at each other. "Anyway, you dance very good. You should come over so we can dance together!"
"Well I don't know about tha-"
"You have to! It must be better than hanging around Ciel. He's such a bore." Alois started before he went behind me and whispered in my ear, "We can have lots of fun." Shit that was weird.
I stepped away and looked at him. "Well I don't think Ciel would let me. I have work and I'm very busy." I said quickly trying to come up with an excuse. Alois looked at Ciel and waited for his response. I gave him a pleading expression and he gave back a mischievous smirk.
"That's okay with me. How about next week?" Ciel said.
"Perfect. Claude we must prepare! Let's have delicious food and eat it in the garden and-" Alois blabbered as he walked off with Claude behind him.
I looked at Ciel with a deadly glare and he gulped. He is going to die.
