60 Girls Were Always Right

Inside Ciel's room…

Chloe was sleeping peacefully while hugging her big brother. The poor girl had exhausted herself taking the exam. Although she looked fine on the surface, deep down she was at her limit.

Ciel noticed Chloe's condition and advised her to take a nap to regain her strength. The little fox took this opportunity to have some skinship with her Big Brother and asked if she could sleep in his room. Ciel didn't find anything wrong with her request, so he readily agreed.

When they arrived in his room, Chloe dragged Ciel to the bed and used him as her hug pillow. He wasn't able to do anything, because his "Little Sister" insisted that this was her reward for doing her best on the exam.

The moment Chloe closed her eyes, she instantly fell asleep. Ciel could only smile wryly as he allowed himself to be used as a pillow. Stella was also inside the room. She was sitting on the bed looking at the sleeping Chloe.

The two didn't say anything to each other. Silence permeated the room and only Chloe's sleeping breaths could be heard. After fifteen minutes, Stella wrinkled her nose and decided to break the ice.

"Why aren't you asking me anything?"

"Now is not the time to ask anything."

Stella raised an eyebrow and stared at the boy who seemed to be ignoring her. Ciel had his eyes closed and seemed to be deep in thought.

"Aren't you curious?" Stella asked. For some reason, she felt annoyed that Ciel wasn't paying attention to her. "Didn't you want to talk to me?"

"Yes, but only after Kate passed the exam."

"I see..."

Stella frowned. Indeed, Ciel told her that they would have a talk after Kate passed the exam. However, she already knew that Kate didn't pass the exam. If that was the case then didn't that mean that Ciel would not talk to her anytime soon?

Stella was not the passive type of girl. She was not Kate who was cautious and timid. With a mischievous smirk on her face, she stood from the bed and laid down beside Ciel. The boy was sandwiched in between the two girls--Stella on his left and Chloe on his right.

Ciel's eyelashes fluttered because of the bed's sudden movement, but he didn't open his eyes. Stella's lips moved closer and stopped near his ear. She was very tempted to nibble on it, but she held herself back. Instead, she opened her adorable lips and whispered in his ears.

"Do you want to know who I am?"

"..."

"No? What a shame." Stella's voice was soft and sweet as if it was coated in honey. For a brief moment, Ciel thought that there was a naughty imp that was whispering in his ears.

"Ciel, please, open your eyes and look at me," Stella said in a teasing tone. "It makes me sad that you are avoiding me on purpose."

At first, Stella thought that Ciel wouldn't listen to her, so she was pleasantly surprised when the boy opened his eyes. She was currently on top of him, so naturally, her gaze was looking down on him. Stella was like a tiger who had pinned her prey to the ground and was deciding whether to eat it or not.

Ciel looked up at her without batting his eye. His gaze carried warmth and tenderness, but Stella could also see the concern hidden behind their depths. Stella wouldn't admit it, but she liked it best when Ciel was looking at her (and Kate). When only her reflection (and Kate's) could be seen in his clear and beautiful blue eyes, she had the strong urge to pin him down and smother his lips with kisses.

Tempted as she was, she held herself back. She was a girl. It was the boys job to take the initiative. Of course, it was different if that "boy" was asleep. When that time came, it was only natural that she would be the one to take the initiative. After all, she was a girl and girls were always right.

(A/N: I disagree! *cough*)

The two stared at each other for a long time. Neither of them looked away. Neither of them uttered a sound. Ciel raised an eyebrow as if to say "Are you picking a fight?"

Stella gave him a very sweet smile that screamed "Just say the word and I'll ride you now, cowboy."

Seeing her reaction, Ciel let out a sigh. He raised his hand and gently squeezed Stella's nose.

"I don't taste good," Ciel said. "Don't eat me."

"Pfft!" Stella wasn't able to stop the giggle that escaped her lips. If Chloe wasn't sleeping peacefully by their side, she might have already roared in laughter. After reigning in the laughter that was bubbling in her chest, she lowered her head and planted a kiss on Ciel's forehead. She even playfully extended her tongue and licked it for a split second.

Ciel's eyes widened in surprise at her boldness but found himself unable to say anything because a finger was blocking his lips.

"Don't worry, I won't eat you now." Stella smiled evilly. "I just had a taste and it was delicious. I'm sure that after a few years, you will be ripe for the picking."

"You sound like a dirty old man."

"How rude. Can't you see that I'm a sweet and innocent girl?"

Ciel snorted but didn't say anything else. His expression made Stella want to tease him more. Right now, her finger was currently touching his lips and she could feel their softness. Stella lightly pressed on them once then twice until Ciel opened his mouth and lightly bit her finger.

Stella didn't pull her finger away because she knew that Ciel wouldn't really hurt her. Ciel didn't disappoint her and only held her finger between his teeth.

"Go on, take a bite," Stella encouraged him. "My taste is very different from Kate. You might get addicted oh~"

Ciel held her hand and pulled it away from his mouth. "You're really different from Kate."

"Of course I'm different. What were you expecting? Pumpkin Juice?"

Ciel's expression became serious as he looked straight into Stella's eyes.

"Did Kate pass the exam?"

Stella narrowed her eyes, but decided to tell him the truth. She knew that Ciel only wanted the best for them so she wasn't reluctant to share Kate's test results.

"No," Stella answered. "She 'almost' passed, but she fell a little short."

"Mmm."

Stella observed Ciel's expression, but the boy only closed his eyes as if the matter had already ended. She knew that he would not pursue the matter again. Since she only had limited time, she decided to make the best of it and laid beside Ciel.

She imitated Chloe and used Ciel as a hug pillow. Before long, she too fell asleep. Like Kate, Stella was also tired. She only endured because she needed to explain what happened to her Mama Andrea and to have a short chat with Ciel. Since her goals had been met, it was time to take her well deserved rest.
