((I thought I would show you all a different view of Ciel and Claude. Since most are like Claude obsessed with the boy and junk. I like to think if the conditions were right then Ciel and Claude would be good friends.))
It was a Saturday afternoon and Ciel and his brother Sebastian were walking home back to their apartment complex. "So Sebastian. Did you like the movie? I thought it was a little boring." He was wearing some short khaki shorts and a light blue shirt and a navy blue vest. He set his hands in his pocket and looked up at him.
Sebastian smiled down at his little brother and smiled. "Well. It was nice. You know we did not have to see that movie. I know how you don't like romantic comedies. We could have seen something with a little more action in it." He set his hand on his little brothers head knowing how much he disliked it when he did this. But he did love his face whenever he did this.
"Hm. Yes. But I know how you really wanted to see that movie. So I thought I could at least go bare with watching it. It was alright for a movie with no actiojn in it." He blinked and looked up at his brother with a slight pout and mumbled. "You know I hate it when you do that." It always made him feel so short and child like. He hated it so much. He moved his hand away.
Sebastian chuckled lightly and set his hand back to his side. "My apologies little brother. I just can not resist that face you make is all. It is quite cute."
The young boy scowled at his brother for a quick moment and then sighed. "Whatever Sebastian. Lets just hurry and get home so I can relax and watch a good movie." As they both looked ahead he set his hand on his one eye covered with an eye patch and sighed.
Sebastian looked at his brother and his one eye patched eye. His young brother had a weak left eye. He could barely see out of it. And then one day he went completely blind in it. So he got an eye patch to cover it up. He could get lazer eye surgery to get it fixed but they didn't have the money. This made Sebastian sad that he couldn't do anything to help his brother with his gave Ciel a soft smile. "What do you say that when we go home I make you an ice cream sundae."
Ciel set his hands in his pocket playing with the keys he had in his right pocket for the house. He looked up at Sebastian and gave a slight smile. "That sounds good. You know how I love your desserts. You are one hell of a cook you know." He chuckled lightly and as they made it close to their apartment he stopped for a moment and looked at the U-Haul moving truck. "It looks like someone is moving in."
Sebastian smiles. "Now I wouldn't say that. But I am a very good cook." Sebastian chuckles lightly and looked at the U-Haul truck. "It would seem so. It is probably the apartment that is next to us that Mr. Tanaka moved out of."
Ciel looked at his older brother and blinked. "You think so? Tanaka was a good neighbor. He was very nice. It was sad that he left so suddenly. Wherever he ended up. I hope he is resting in peace."
Sebastian nodded in agreement. "Indeed. It is much to noisy in the city for him to rest properly. I heard he moved down to Florida where it's warm. And less noisy."
"Oh? How do you know he moved to Florida?" Ciel tilted his head curiously.
"Oh! Well he sent a postcard saying how he was and such. It's on the fridge. It arrived yesterday." Sebastian looked at him with a smile.
Cial nodded. "Oh! Well I must look at it when I get a chance." Ciel looked at the men unloading a couch, a few chairs, some tables, and various boxes. "Hm. I wonder what kind of person will be moving in next door. Hopefully not a weirdo."
Sebastian laughed and patted his lil bro on the back. "Oh Ciel. I am sure no wierdo will be moving in. Hopefully. Now lets go inside." The two headed into the apartment building and Ciel took out his keys and opened the door letting him and his brother inside.
Meanwhile back outside a black shiny SUV pulled up on the curb behind the moving truck. Having turned his car off a rather tall boy stepped out and looked at the movers. He was about the same age as Sebastian. "You be careful with that bed frame! It wasn't cheap." He adjusted his thin framed gold like galsses and ran his hand through his jet black hair. He opened the back door to let out his dog. The man looked down at his dog. "Look Skippy. Our new home." The dog barked and waged his tail.
Back in the house. Ciel set down his keys in a little pottery bowl on a glass night stand next to a nice dark brown couch. He plops himself down and sighs. "Say Sebastian."
Sebastian walks into the kitchen and gets a cup of water. He looked back at him. "Hm? Yes?"
Ciel looked at him and rubbed his head. "Since school starts soon and I am going to be a Freshman and you're oing to be a Junior. I was wondering. Do you think maybe you can help me find my classes the first day." Ciel blushed slightly as he asked him.
Sebastian was 2 years older then Ciel and smirked lightly. "But of course. What are brother for after all?" He chuckled lightly and went back in the kitchen and opened the freezer. He took out some ice cream. He then opened up the fridge and took out the syrup, cherries, and whipped cream.
Ciel leaned over to look at him. "What the hell are you doing in there?"
Sebastian looked back at him with a slight smile. "I am making you your sundae of course. What else would I be doing?" Sebastian chuckled lightly and conintued on with making the sweet dessert for his little brother.
Ciel had leaned back in the couch and closed his eye. He jumped up slightly as he heard a knocking on the door. "What the hell? Who could that be?" The small boy got up and walked over to the door and yawned slightly. He opened and looked up at the tall black haired man. "Hello? And who may you be?"
The man from outside looked down at the boy and cleared his throat. "I am your new neighbor. My name is Claude Faustus. It is nice to meet you." Claude had his hands by his side and looked about the same age as Sebastian. He had a rather serious expression on his face.
Ciel raised a brow as he looked up at the rather tall man. "Oh. So you are our new neighbor. Well. Welcome to the neighborhood."
Sebastian comes out from the kitchen and stands behind Ciel and looks at Claude. "Oh? So you are the new neighbor. What was your name again? Claude? Was it?" Sebastian was holding the bowl containing Ciel's sundae.
Claude nodded. "Indeed. My name is Claude Faustus. And I have moved in next door. Along with my dog. But do not worry. He is not much of a barker. You will never know he's there."
Sebastian had raised a brow. "Claude Faustus you say? Hm. Why does that name sound so familiar. Hm." Sebastian rubbed his chin as he handed his sundae to Ciel. He knew he heard of his name somewhere before. He just could not put his finger on it. He pushed off the thought for now. "Well welcome to the neighborhood then Mr. Faustus."
Claude nodded and looked at the two and bowed slightly. "Thank you for the warm welcome." Claude nodded and turned around. "I do hope I will have a nice time while staying here. Have a nice day you two." Claude walked down the hall and back to his apartment.
Ciel sighed and started to eat his sundae. "So much for not getting a weirdo as a neighbor. Say Sebastian. You said you think you heard of him before. Do you know him or something?"
Sebastian closed the door and locked it. "Hm? Well I do not think so. It feels as if I heard his name somewhere before. Hmmm. And he has a dog. Grand. I hope the mutt doesn't bark all day and night. Or I might just have to call the pound." Sebastian didn't like dogs at all. He found them noisy and annoying. He sighed and walked over to the couch and sat down. "He did seem a bit strange though. Almost void of emotion." Sebastian picked up the TV remote and started to flip through the channels.
Ciel walked over and sat down next to him and continued to eat his ice cream. "Oh yes. He did say he had a dog. I know how much you despise them. But he is a strange one I must say. Best to keep a distance away from him. He looked your age. I hope he doesn't go to our school. It would be quite awkward I must say."
Sebastian settled on a channel and loked over at his little brother. "Indeed he does seem a bit off. I want you to stay away from him alright? I have a strange feeling about him. He might be some kind of rapist or something." Sebastian sighs and looks up. "I do not want anything happening to you. If something did happen. I wouldn't know what to do with myself."
Ciel looked at his older brother and nodded with the spoon still in his mouth. "I understand brother. Don't worry Sebastian. I'll make sure to keep away from him." Ciel had finished his sundae and hugged his brother blushing a little bit having feel a bit embarassed.
Sebastian smiles and hugs his brother back tight. "Awwwh. My little brother. You are quite adorable when you blush." Sebastian chuckled lightly. his brother rarely blushed in front of him. He seemed a bit rough around the edges but deep down he was a nice boy. Only Sebastian knew that side of him. It made him happy that his brother can open up to him like this.
Ciel looked up at him with a slight smile. He let go of him and looked at the TV they both watched one of those murder story shows. they both loved those type of shows. What would happen now that they had a new neighbor? who was he? Was he really some kind of rapist? Well. all answers and more will be answered sooner or later.
