"Can we go home now?" Sighed Rex, as he tugged on Ciel's sleeve.
"Huh? Come on, we gotta stay till midnight, that's the whole point," She responded in bemusement.
"But I'm sleepy..."
"You can sleep in extra late tomorrow."
"Fine..."
"Honestly, I'm surprised you managed to get him to come at all," I chimed in with a wry smile.
"Well, it wasn't easy. I don't usually force him to do anything he doesn't want to, which is most things, but I figured it'd be good for him to step out of his comfort zone every once in a while," She grinned sheepishly.
"Whatever...at least the food's good," He mumbled, before wandering off.
"I'm gonna stick by him, just in case he's thinking of slipping out when no one's looking. See ya," Smiled Ciel, giving me a wave as she hurried after him.
Today's the 31st of December, the end of the year.
It's a bit past 11:30 PM, and I was currently at a party being thrown by the Hunters Union, will members from all three Guilds invited.
