“It may have been an arranged marriage between two nobles, but I couldn’t see any other lady taking her place.” It was Ciel’s way of saying yes. Sure, they had their differences but the earl grew up with her, and it wasn’t always like this – where she was the smiles and he was the shadow. He remembers very well the fun they used have, and even the times where they pretended they were already married. The two were young, and of course the “marriage-game” was always Lizzie’s idea, but Ciel didn’t mind at all.
It would take him a very long time to admit to her let alone himself that he loved her. Though, he knew that she was special to him and he cared about her a great deal.
