"Ahn!" I cried, arching my back. "Sebastian, not so hard!"
He remained behind me, a low smile crossing his face. "You can handle everything, but you can't handle this, my lord?"
"It's too big!" I told him, breathing shakily. "I can't!"
He just ch...

Episode 4 - Make it Mine
"Master, I can give you a bath now that you're all better," I said, stepping in the room with a towel. "And I can-"
My brows drew together when I found the room empty. "Master?"
I gazed around curiously when I found the sheets thrown around in shambles and her shoes and clothes thrown about the floor.
I then set the towels on her bed and glanced to the bathroom door, making it over there seconds later.
I blinked.
Master Yumi was staring helplessly at herself in the mirror, eyes widened as she watched her reflection carefully.
"Master, what are you doing?" I said curiously.
She shot her eyes in my direction.
I immediately froze, bones chilling.
There were... tears in her eyes.
I'd never seen her cry in my life.
My lips parted. "My lord...."
She suddenly grew enraged, blinking her tears away but it seemed as if they refused to leave. "I told you I could ready myself this morning! Why are you here?!"
"Master..." I whispered, unsure of how to respond.
She just ran over quickly and shoved me out of the bathroom. "Get out!"
And the door slammed in my face.
I stared at the wood helplessly, eyes widened in confusion.
Tears... a weakness in her eyes... something she never liked to show.
My lashes lowered as I continued staring at the door.
Master Ciel was the same. He never liked to show weakness, and I do admit I encouraged it, but... weakness was something that I liked seeing in my master's. It made their souls weaker, softer.
I felt myself weaken at the thought.
"Master," I said then, gazing up, "if I may ask what's wrong?"
"Leave me alone!" she screamed.
I just stared at the door, knowing she hadn't ordered me to leave yet, so I pushed further. "Master, I might be able to help. Maybe a bath, perhaps?"
"Go away, Sebastian!" she said then. "Why do you even care? You just want my soul."
My lips parted as my lashes lowered, and I ended up smiling a little. "Indeed, I do, master."
But I have to in order to get close to you. It's a curse upon me. But I can't tell you that because you'd never understand.
"My point exactly!" she yelled then. "Now go away!"
