Ciel was happily playing with Bitter in the garden. Today, his master (finally) decided to let him go out the mansion.

The neko giggled as he lifted the stuffed rabbit and laid down on the soft trimmed grass. He snuggled with Bitter while he enjoyed the scent of Mother Nature and the feeling of the cool breeze. As he set his rabbit to his side, a blue and black butterfly-like creature with sharp-edged wings and a curled tail landed on his nose. (This is Hell, people. Well, not entirely. This is MY version of Hell.)

A while later, the butterfly got hungry and flew off the neko's nose to land on a black rose to feed. Ciel got up and crept towards the bug and flower to watch the butterfly. He pouted when the butterfly finished feeding and flew off. He sighed and sat on his rump to play with his fluffy tail.

"Young master?"

Ciel looked up to see the concerned gaze of Finnian the gardener. He grinned and stood up with bright eyes filled with happiness.

"Finny, play?"

The blonde demon gave a sad smile. "I would like to play with you, but I have work to do, like water the pretty flowers and take out weeds."

Ciel tilted his head to the side. "Can I help?"

Finny shook his head. "I'm sorry young master, it is very improper for a noble to help a servant. Maybe Bard of Mey-rin will want to play with you!"

The neko nodded his head enthusiastically, picked up his rabbit and ran off inside the manor.

"Bard?"

The chef opened an eye to look at the neko. He sat up straight from his lounging position and grinned, his cigar hanging from his mouth. "Good morning, young master. What can I do for ye?"

Ciel smiled and held out his stuffed rabbit. "Play! Tea party!"

Bard gulped and stared at the toy. "Uhhh... Sorry, young master but I, errr... I'm allergic! Yep, allergic to tea parties!"

The neko deflated sadly and nodded. "Okay..."

The flamethrower-addict scratched his head in thought. "Ah! Why don't you play with Mey-rin? I'm sure she would want to play."

Blue ears pointed up in excitement as the neko ran off the kitchen to go find the maid.

Bard sighed in relief. "Dignity, we're safe... for now."

The adorable walking cat skipped down the halls of the Michaelis manor. He hummed a little tune as he looked at his precious toy his master gave him as a reward. He smiled at the memory and nuzzled Bitter Rabbit. The neko continued his little adventure around the manor, trying to find the maid along the way. He searched the guest rooms, living room, ball room, his personal play room, and finally the game room. Finally, he saw Mey-rin arranging the games present there, like the dart boards and the pool table.

"Mey-mey!" Ciel screeched happily, making the clumsy maid yelp in surprise and trip on her shoelace. "Mey-rin, play!"

"A-ah, y-young master! I-I'm so sorry, but you see I'm too busy cleaning, yes I am!"

The lonely neko whined and silently left the game room, leaving a guilty plum-haired maid.

"Poor young master..."

Ciel whimpered as he sat on the large bed in his and Sebastian's room. He sighed and cuddled his rabbit tightly as he felt his eyes water. He sniffled as his ears went down, showing his despair.

'Why won't anyone play with me...? Do they not like me anymore?'

The neko laid down on the soft pillows and drifted off to sleep, hoping that when he wakes up, things will get better. But what he didn't know that his master was quietly listening to his pet's pitiful cries outside the room. With a frown, he walked away.

The mighty demon lord wasn't feeling mighty at all. Instead, he felt immense guilt for not paying attention to his pet lately. He sighed as he started to pace around his office, trying to think of a way to make his pet feel better.

He paused and suddenly smirked when an idea hit his handsome head.

Opening his large doe eyes, Ciel sat up and yawned cutely. He blinked the sleepiness away and held his rabbit in his arms before getting out of bed and walking out his room.

He was about to skip happily down the hall when he remembered that he was sad. So he walked down the hall with his ears and tail down while dragging Bitter along the carpet, to depressed to cuddle with him.

The neko felt his stomach grumble in hunger, so he decided to go to the kitchen to ask Bard for a snack. Maybe a tasty tuna sandwich to lighten up his mood. But when he reached the kitchen, it was dark. The Glowstones (ahem-minecraftreference-ahem) seemed to be out of power. He whined as his tail curled around his leg to indicate that he was afraid.

He was about to walk out when the Glowstones were suddenly powered up and five familiar faces popped out from behind the counter, one of them was carrying a big fancy looking cake, the others were holding brightly colored balloons.

"SURPRISE!"

And Ciel didn't feel sad or lonely anymore.

Yeh... I'll do better next time.

I'm gonna delete all the AN soon, they really bother me.
