Sebastian's heart sank as his teacher told that class about Claude's death. His tears threatened to fall but he would not let them. Not in front of anyone anyway.

Sebastian let his tears fall once he was home.

His mother opened his door,"What's wrong?"

"He's dead," Sebastian answered.

"Claude?"

He nodded.

"Don't worry, it was probably for the best. You can move on and date a girl."

For the best? Yeah right. He had so much to live for. He could've been a very successful doctor, but no, he had to die.

Maybe it is a phase. Maybe I can be saved if I date enough girls.

I won't date a girl though. Or a boy. I won't date anyone. Claude is the only one I will ever love.

He woke up early the next day to avoid his parents, and headed to his band's studio. Aka some room in Grell's house.

Sebastian rung the doorbell, and Grell ran to hug him,"Hey Bassy!"

"Hi" Sebastian said shyly.

"Why are you so early? It's only 9:15."

"Oh it is. I thought it was 10:00," He lied.

"Oh, well that's okay we need to catch up anyway. So what's been going on in your life?"

Sebastian didn't want to tell her the bad news upfront, but it would probably be a good idea to tell them soon,"Not much."

"Come on, something has to be happening in your life. I don't care what it is. You can trust me not to judge you."

Don't cry. Don't cry

Sebastian put on a blank expression in an attempt to not look sad. Should I tell him or wait?

Grell's smiled faded,"Is something wrong?"

"My boyfriend died,"He said in a weak voice.

Grell went over to hug him,"I'm sorry. I-"

"It's okay. He's in a better place right?" Sebastian said. It almost sounded like he was trying to convince himself.

Grell nodded,"I'm sure he is."

So they just talked for the next hour until the rest of the band arrived.

Angelina was the first one to arrive as usual. Well after Sebastian. Lau and his platonic friend came about 10-30 minutes late depending on the situation. If they weren't such good musicians, they probably would've been kicked out of the band by now.

"Well are we gonna keep practicing that one song or start a new one?"Angelina asked.

Grell thought for a moment,"I think we should practice the old one. Sebastian told me he still hasn't finished writing the new one."

"You weren't supposed to tell her that!"

Grell smiled,"You should've finished it."

Sebastian rolled his eyes,"It takes time to finish a quality song."

Lau and his friend, Ran Mao entered the house,"We're here!"

"Congratulations, only 5 minutes late this time," Angelina said.

"Well sorry we live far away from this house," Lau said in an attempt to defend himself.

"Hey, we don't need to fight, Grell said.

"Let's just get started,"Sebastian suggested.

The band went to pick up their instruments and began to play a song that has yet to be named. The song sounded powerful, and made people want to jump off buildings and do other dangerous stunts. Sebastian wrote this song before Claude's death when he thought nothing could go wrong. When he thought Claude was too young to die.

I wonder if this band will play a happy song ever again.

I don't think it worked, Sebastian thought as he scanned the area. Then heard some footsteps that sounded like they were coming behind him. He turned around and saw this dark being. He couldn't tell what is was since all this smoky, black stuff was covering it. The only things visible were a pair of glowing, pink eyes, and a pair of stilettos.

"Who are you?" Sebastian tried, thinking that maybe this thing could speak English.

"I'm the one you called,"The being answered in a young, but powerful voice.

"So, you're a demon?"

"Yes."

"What's your name?" Sebastian asked.

It chuckled,"I like to be called Ciel."

"Ciel,"he repeated,"I'm Sebastian."

"Enough with this small talk, Do you want to make a contract with me?" Ciel asked.

Sebastian didn't know that he would get this far. According to the internet, a demon would grant a wish, protect you until it's time to eat your soul. What if it's that's not how it works?

"Wait, so do I make a wish, you grant it and eat my soul?"

Ciel nodded,"This contract can't be broken and the gates of paradise will be forever out of your reach, so don't take this lightly."

"I don't want to go to Heven anyway. It's not like God actually cares about me," Sebastian muttered loud enough for Ciel to hear, but quiet enough so no eavesdroppers would hear.

"So do you want to make a contract with me?"

"Yes."

"Then what is your wish?"

"I want to resurrect my boyfriend. You can take my soul once my band was one fan in every country. "

The demon stood there,"You ask for a lot. It will be difficult to resurrect him, since I have to convince a reaper to put his soul back in his body. Lucky for you it will be easy to preserve and repair the body."

"So is it possible?"Sebastian asked in anticipation.

"Of course! I can do anything. It will take some time though."

"Can you serve me until then?"

"Why does everyone ask that? But yeah, I can do that."

"Good, I also want you to stay by my side until the contract is done,"Sebastian said.

Ciel finally showed himself. He was a small harmless looking boy with bluish grey hair that was all over the place, and bright blue eyes. It was obvious that he was wearing eyeliner and an eyebrow piercing. He wore dark clothes similar to what Sebastian would wear.

Sebastian laughed,"Why so short?"

Ciel looked at himself,"Damn, I'm still new to this."

"Have you ever made a contract before?"

"I have about 100 years ago, but I spend most of my time in Hell, so I don't usually need to change forms. Anyway, what is your boyfriend's name?

"Claude Faustus,"Sebastian answered.

"Oh, we'll have to make the contract now. Where would you like it?"

Sebastian took a second to think. He knew the contract was more powerful in a more visible place, but he didn't want anyone to see it.

"Why not the front of your neck?" Ciel suggested.

"Sounds good."

"There, no more changes can be made to the contract. I will follow you until this contract is fulfilled. I'm sure your soul will be delicious,"Ciel said with a grin.
