What a humiliating posture to get caught in. As soon as Ciel had gotten free from Alex he almost withdrew within himself, indignantly trying to avoid the tailor. His face was heated up and his heart racing, and for the life of him he couldn't place why. That was most certainly not the plan that he had for getting his outfit. What a travesty... After warning Alex about mentioning anything of this matter the earl's eyes narrowed when he made light of the situation. "If you think I'm kidding then go right ahead and tell someone," he said angrily, getting up from the bed. "I will send Sebastian to wherever you might be and he'll silence you on my behalf. I'm not above killing someone to preserve my family's reputation, bear that in mind." It was a bit of an overkill in terms of reactions, he had to admit. If he was trying to keep the Phantomhive name in its prestige though he couldn't dare let something like this get out. It was a simple tumble, but let it blow out of proportion with the media and he'd have a scandal on his hands.

"W-What...?" Alex thought that he had enjoyed it? It was a ludicrous suggestion, absolutely farfetched. And yet... Why was his face still red and his heart pounding in his chest? That smile that the tailor gave him, for the briefest of moments Ciel found himself just looking at the tailor. He had a funny feeling, one he couldn't quite place and this was bothered greatly by it. "I most certainly did not enjoy that... You're delusional..." the Earl replied, frowning as he looked away again. "You must have hit your head or something..." Right now he wanted Alex gone, though not for the reasons he had just a moment ago. Right now Ciel felt terribly confused, and that being such a rare thing for him he was rather bothered by it. He needed time to think, and with Alex sitting there smiling at him it was aggravatingly difficult to form so much as a single thought.

Sebastian couldn't have had better timing in this case. As soon as the butler alerted him to the food being ready Ciel climbed out of the bed, taking a quick moment to straighten out his nightie and hair. "Very well Sebastian, be right out." he answered, sighing as he sorted his appearance. Looking over his shoulder at Alex the young boy walked over, frowning before pointing a finger at the tailor. "Until my outfit is ready I do not want to see you in here again, understood? While I'm eating you are to leave my estate, and not to return until my clothes for tonight are finished." He couldn't handle Alex being there at the moment, it had him all kinds of off. Exhaling to settle his growing nerves Ciel turned and went to the door, opening it wordlessly and heading right past his butler down the hall. The door, unless closed by Sebastian would be left open for Alex to leave, and hopefully by the time he was finished with his meal he could return to his room in peace.
