Summary
     When Ciel refuses to participate in Sebastian's art lessons,
     Sebastian has no choice but to hire an art instructor. But as soon as

     that he's greatly experienced in. (Two-shot)
Notes
     Hello my absolutely, positively, wonderfully beautiful kitlets!!! ^-^
     . . .
     Too much?
     Oh well.
     I’M BACK!
     And I have returned with my first ever TWO-SHOT. HUZZAH!
     You can thank Mickey for this one. I was looking through stuff and I
     saw some of Mickey’s drawings, and then I thought ‘Ooh, I have an
     idea…’
     So yeah. This is for you, Mickey.
     Might be a little OOC, blah blah blah…
     Oh, and by the way, I think this can be counted as a dub-con.
     Somewhat? Maybe? Eh. I think this will be a little dubcon-ish.
     Enjoy, darling kitlets. ^-^
See the end of the work for more notes
It was a typical day in the Phantomhive estate; the birds were chirping, the
roses were blooming with utter splendor, and the warm sun was shining.
Oh, and curse words were flying.
“Damn it, Sebastian! You know I’m no good at this!”
“Oh, Young Master, please don’t break the pencils.”
“I’ll break them as I see fit!”
“My lord, is throwing all these supplies at me really necessary?”
“Shut up!”
The three servants sighed. Those two had been arguing for most of the morning,
and although the servants had been doing chores around the entire manor all
day, they could clearly hear their master’s frustrated yells from his upstairs
study no matter where they went.
“Is this arguing ever going to stop?” Finny whined. “I hate to see them
quarreling.”
“Me too,” Meyrin agreed. “The young master shouldn’t be upset.”
“Neither should Sebastian,” Bard snorted. “If he leaves that room in a bad
mood, we’ll all be in trouble.”
But the servants didn’t have much to fret over, for Sebastian wasn’t upset;
rather, he was in a quite calm, yet slightly irritated mood.
Up in the master’s study, Sebastian was wearing his usual tailcoat, tie,
trousers and vest, and his hair was in a minor disarray due to constantly
dodging objects his master had been throwing at him. His left gloved hand
rested on his master’s desk, and his right hand had a tight grip around said
master’s wrist, forbidding the boy from throwing anything else.
The boy -- formally known as Ciel Phantomhive -- was panting heavily and
staring into his butler’s eyes with malice; he was definitely not happy with
the way things had been going this morning.
“Master,” Sebastian spoke coolly. “Now that you’ve quit throwing your learning
materials at me, may we continue with your lesson once more?”
Ciel yanked his arm away from the demon’s grasp, his panting finally ceasing.
“Just get out of here. I have more important things to do than learn about the
fundamentals of art.”
Sebastian sighed as he stood up straight. “Honestly, my lord, you always have
to let your frustration get the best of you. Art is not only a very unique
cultural experience, it is also a useful tool that will provide you with
knowledge and give you an advantage with the Funtom Company.”
“How could art ever help me run Funtom,” Ciel murmured quietly, his tiny body
sitting down in his large, velvet chair. “I have all the necessary skills
needed to run my company already.”
Sebastian arched his eyebrows in a sympathetic manner. “With all due respect,
my lord, you are lacking one important concept, that being art.”
“I wouldn’t be lacking that concept if you weren’t such a terrible teacher!”
Ciel shouted.
“I wouldn’t be such a terrible teacher if you would only focus on what you need
to learn.”
“Are you saying that I’m incompetent of learning a simple subject such as
art?!”
                                     * * *
Bard sighed and lowered his head. “There they go again.”
“Will they ever stop?” Meyrin questioned.
“I sure hope so,” Finny frowned. “I feel bad for the master. I was never good
at art, either.”
“Maybe we can do something for the master to make him seem more confident about
his artwork,” Meyrin suggested.
“That’s it, Mey!” Bard agreed, thrusting his fist into the air. “We’ll do
something artistic for the master! Then he’ll never be insecure about his
artwork ever again! Meyrin, Finny, follow me. We have a lot of work to do!”
“Right!” Meyrin and Finny synchronized.
                                     * * *
“Master, please be reasonable. I’m merely trying to give you simple exercises
that will further your creative abilities.”
“I’m tired of arguing with you, Sebastian,” Ciel stated, closing his eyes and
waving his hand. “This is a waste of my time.”
Sebastian grimaced. “Well then, Master, I’m afraid you leave me no choice.”
Ciel’s eyelids cracked open upon hearing Sebastian’s response. “What do you
mean?”
“I’ll have to find you a new art teacher immediately.”
===============================================================================
 
Ciel let out an irritable sigh as he walked down the stairs, his butler
following.
“This could have been avoided, Sebastian, if only you taught properly.”
Sebastian placed his hand over his heart. “My apologies, my lord. Now you’ll no
longer have to worry about me interfering in your studies.”
“I just hope this teacher will be better than my last.”
Sebastian smiled. That’s my young master. First he drives the dagger in, then
he twists it.
The butler politely opened the door for his master, allowing the boy to exit
before he followed and shut the door behind them.
The two continued down more steps, neither of them seeming thrilled as a
carriage entered the Phantomhive estate.
“Brace yourself, my lord,” Sebastian said. “For here comes your new
instructor.”
Ciel’s eyes flicked over to his butler and he gave him a challenging leer. “It
seems you may have met your match, Sebastian.”
“Indeed, Sir,” Sebastian agreed, another smirk spreading across his lips.
That’s my young master.
The carriage halted in front of the manor, and Sebastian approached it
accordingly. He opened the carriage door and politely extended his hand to the
lady inside, said lady taking his hand as she was helped out.
The woman was rather tall, standing at 5’11” with her heels on. She wore a
light brown dress that had white ruffles on the cuffs and neckline. Tan, heeled
boots were the only thing visible under the big dress, and her brown hair was
pulled into a tight, formal bun. A coral-colored lipstick was present on her
lips, and she wore light makeup around her chestnut eyes. Her skin tone was a
light beige, but her cheeks had a feminine blush. Yes, she was a beautiful
woman; nevertheless, by the look in her eyes she was an intimidating lady.
“Master, this is Antoinette Michey, your new art instructor,” Sebastian
introduced. “And Mrs. Michey, this is my master and your new pupil, Earl Ciel
Phantomhive.”
The woman regarded Ciel with distasteful eyes, and Ciel gulped momentarily
before he flashed her a smile.
“It’s a pleasure to meet you, Mrs. Michey, and welcome to the Phantomhive
manor. I promise that while you are here you will receive the utmost
hospitality. Please follow me to my study; my lesson will be conducted there.”
The woman blinked before she pursed her lips together, briefly closed her eyes
and gave a small curtsy. “As you wish.”
Ciel began to guide the woman toward the house, Sebastian following behind.
Before they entered the manor, however, Ciel turned to his butler and gave him
a stern stare.
“Sebastian, this is an order: you will not enter my study while Mrs. Michey is
here nor will you intrude or sabotage this lesson in any way. Is that
understood?”
Sebastian knelt on one knee, bowing his head and placing his hand over his
heart once more. “Yes, my lord.”
“Sabotage?” Mrs. Michey whispered in Ciel’s ear. “Why would a butler ever try
to sabotage a lesson?”
“He’s a special kind of butler,” Ciel murmured. “I can assure you that you’ll
never meet another butler like him.”
Sebastian waited until the two shuffled inside and the door was closed before
he rose from his knee, his red eyes now glowing an ominous pink.
“You are right, Master. She will never meet another like me, for I am one hell
of butler.”
===============================================================================
 
Sebastian paced through the grounds anxiously, his back stiffer than a pole. He
had finished his obligations early, and for the last hour he had been walking
through the garden, subtly admiring the flowers as his mind overflowed with
thoughts.
This was the first time Ciel ever had a lesson with someone other than
Sebastian, and the curiosity was killing him. He wanted nothing more than to
have Ciel kick the woman out of the estate and come crawling back to him,
begging for him to be his instructor once again, but that was something that
would never happen under any circumstances; Sebastian already knew that. But
what if he liked the woman?
Then I suppose she’ll be his art instructor from now on, Sebastian thought. And
I won’t have to deal with his consistent complaining.
Sebastian smiled at the thought. Ciel’s complaining was one thing he could
definitely do without. While demons had high tolerance and could typically deal
with many annoying humans at once, one pissed off Ciel could easily top a large
group of annoying humans. It wasn’t because Ciel was particularly annoying -
- though he could be quite annoying at times -- rather, it was the fact that
Ciel would never let Sebastian live anything down. Whenever Sebastian and his
master got into a disagreement, Ciel would yowl and protest for as long as
possible, even if Sebastian gave in to his occasional irrational requests. Oh
yes, Ciel was fairly mature for his age, but a childish streak would make its
appearance now and then.
“I apologise that my butler isn’t here with me to give you farewell wishes,
Madam.”
Sebastian raised his head when he heard the sound of Ciel’s voice, and he could
see from afar that Ciel and his new instructor were standing outside of the
manor, the woman’s carriage already waiting for her.
“Oh, it’s quite alright,” Antoinette Michey said with a smile. “Not all butlers
have such capabilities.”
Sebastian’s eyes narrowed in anger and a vein twitched in his forehead.
How dare this woman insult my capabilities as a butler!
Ciel chuckled. “I suppose you’re right. I had thought so highly of him before,
but it seems he’s only botching the Phantomhive name.”
Sebastian’s eyes widened at Ciel’s remark, his anger immediately turning into
shock.
Master? You’re agreeing with this woman?
Mrs. Michey chortled loudly. “Oh, heavens no. You’re doing a wonderful job at
keeping your family’s name alive, Ciel Phantomhive. I was skeptical of your
abilities at first, but you were able to truly impress me. You’re an excellent
student and a charming gentleman. I’m sure your father would be proud of what
you’ve accomplished so far.”
Ciel flashed his teacher a smile. “Thank you very much, Milady.”
Sebastian watched as Ciel opened the carriage door and offered his hand to his
teacher, politely helping the woman inside and shutting the door once she was
in.
“See you next week, Ciel!” Mrs. Michey called out as the carriage drove away.
“I look forward to our next lesson, Madam,” Ciel hollered back.
Then the boy turned, walked up the stairs, and went inside the manor.
Sebastian grimaced. Perhaps the lesson went better than I thought.
===============================================================================
“One… Two… No, six… Seven… Twenty-nine…”
Knock knock.
“Whoever it is, I’m busy.”
“Master?”
Ciel raised his head and looked at the closed door. “Sebastian? What do you
want?”
“May I come in and speak to you directly, my lord?”
Ciel sighed. “Whatever.”
The door slowly opened and Sebastian stuck his head inside, observing that his
master was sitting at his desk.
“Might I inquire what you’re doing?”
“I am doing calculations for the Funtom Company.”
Sebastian’s eyebrows rose. “Calculations for the Funtom Company? But I usually
do the calculations for the company, my lord.”
“I know. But I am no longer in need of your assistance with the calculations.”
A stunned expression washed over Sebastian’s face and Ciel chuckled.
“What? Surprised? You shouldn’t be. You’re the one that hired her, after all.”
Sebastian frowned. “I take it the lesson went well.”
Ciel flashed his butler a dazzling smile. “I’ll admit, I was cynical at first
when I met Antoinette Michey; she’s a resolute woman and I’ve never had another
teacher besides you. However, my feelings changed. All thanks to you,
Sebastian.”
Sebastian closed his eyes and bowed his head. “I am happy to be of service, my
lord.”
“Yes. At any rate, tea time approaches. I’d like something strong with a trace
of mint.”
“An excellent choice, Young Master. I will have your tea ready immediately.”
Sebastian turned and exited the study, promptly closing the door behind him. A
displeased snarl could clearly be seen on his face as he briskly walked down
the hallway, his limbs rigid in anger.
I don’t understand what is wrong with me. Is this jealousy that I’m feeling?
Sebastian snorted and narrowed his eyes. He could hear crashes from the kitchen
and squeals from the billiard room, but he couldn’t bring himself to care.
Right now, the only thing he was concerned with was the relationship between
Ciel and his new female instructor, and also the odd rage that Sebastian could
feel building up inside him.
Something must be done about this.
