Ciel Phantomhive Pov

It was late winter and the sky sparkled with stars, the bitterness of the wind and the stone bench beneath him was causing shivers to rake his small frame, the lasting effects of success lingered around him, he had after all, achieved his revenge.

~ Was it worth it? ~

He saw Sebastian leaning closer and closer. With each blink he saw what remained of his life, his manor burned to ashes once again, his fiancée left alone in tears, england left without a guard dog to the underworld. He closed his eyes, awaiting the blissful end, though he would never be with his parents, he had accepted that already. The moment he had summoned the demon and taken the offer of escape, of prolonged life, he had also accepted the consequences. His breath was even, he wouldn't struggle, he wouldn't even flinch.

~ This is the end ~

Soft lips pressed against his own.

~ ? ~

They continued to linger there, moving carefully. A cotton gloved hand came to rest over his cheek, caressing the pale skin that was soon tinted in a light shade of pink.

Then there was the feeling of air being pulled from his chest, It ached slightly. Then there was pain.

~ ... ~

Sebastian suddenly pulled away. A frustrated sound escaping his lips, followed by a sigh.

"I can't" he spoke, obviously agitated.

Ciel opened his eyes. Staring at his surroundings, at the flustered demon looking down at him, his scarlet orbs flashing with anger.

"What?" Ciel replied dryly

"I can't take your soul" he sighed, running a hand through his raven hair.

Ciel just looked at the demon incredulously

"Sebastian.. Just do it already" he said irritated at the demons statement.

Sebastian just turned, walking away swiftly and with demonic speed he brought his closed fist to the ground, cracking the elder stone beneath his feet. He continued this, bringing his hand to the ground over and over until the cracks spread to the bench Ciel perched upon.

Then he returned, crimson eyes darting across to the boy.

"I am afraid I cannot do that, Ciel" he empathised his name to make a point.

Hearing his name, spoken by Sebastian in those deep undertones of his voice sent a shudder through his body.

Ciel was tired to say the least. He had spent nearly three years fueled by his internal anger and need for retribution. He couldn't bring himself to even argue with the demon before him.

Instead he just sighed.

"Would you prefer if I jumped from a cliff?" he countered, his voice dripping with sarcasm.

"... No, I would prefer if you lived" Sebastian spoke quietly

This caught Ciel off guard entirely. Sebastian had been waiting for this moment for as long as he had and now that it had finally arrived he couldn't bring himself to take his life, let alone his soul.

They just stared at each other as moments came and went, as minutes then hours it seemed had passed by.

Sapphire and purple orbs staring into scarlet ones. Neither made a single movement.

Ciel was exhausted, he felt as if he hadn't slept for days and before he knew it his eyes were shut, allowing the darkness to envelop his small form.

Sebastian Michaelis Pov

Ciel had closed his eyes, his breathing evened out, he had lost conciousness. He collapsed upon the side of the stone bench, his hand loosely draped across his face, as if attempting to shield himself from the cold breeze that ruffled his cyan grey hair.

~ Ciel.. ~

Sebastian was frustrated to say the least. He had thought he had passed this, had passed emotions entirely. Especially over humans. Not after before..

He took a deep useless breath, trying to calm himself, demons didn't need air but it had become a habit to breathe over the last few years.

He just stood there silently for a few minutes, looking at the unconcious form, his 'master'.

Both of them had known that the master, servent titles were indifferent to their situation, Ciel may have bought Sebastians services with his soul, however the demon could over power him with ease, he could have broken the contract at any time should he have deemed it unworthy of his time.. but he didn't. He had followed each and every order that had passed Ciel's lips. Those.. soft, pinkish cheeks, flustered. Sebastian could have devoured him at any moment.. but he didn't. Why. Why didn't he? if he had wanted his soul so badly he could have killed him and taken it. He had lied and told himself it was because he had wanted to complete the soul, let it have it's revenge and taste the delicious success that came with it. What would he do now? What could he do?

He couldn't bring himself to send the boy to hell, not after everything they had been through. If he couldn't take his soul and he couldn't kill him.. there was only one option left.

~ I suppose this isn't farewell after all.. Ciel ~
