Ciel's POV:
What I had before will never return, yet I don't feel sad. There is emptiness, yet as I stare into the bright moon, a different feeling overcomes me. I see a vow, one that you made to me, one that will not fade. Not even till death.
The moon...they say that a vow made under the moon waxes and wanes, but how come yours feels different? No, that is not what the moon means for us. The moon is always there, even when I can't see it, and when I do see it, you unveil my agony, which I've kept hidden all these years. Nothing seems to get past you, you notice every move I make, even up to the unshed tears that I hide. Why is it I feel so vulnerable around you? Like the moon high in the sky, you look down on me and make me feel so small, yet you make me feel safe, that someone's watching over me, and I am not alone.
Mysterious, beautiful, with a haunting holiness (how ironic, considering your true nature) that words fail to describe. I feel peaceful around you, despite the knowledge that someday, on a quiet night like this, you will take my life. Then again, my life faded away years ago, just like my house that was burned, like my parents who were killed, and my happiness destroyed.
Wait, aren't you the same person who gave me life? When I called for help, no one answered, not heaven, not another person, but you. I know it was only because you wanted my soul, my despair, my hatred, and my unsatisfied desire for vengeance, all for a meal that you'd be satisfied with. Still, I am grateful. I am alive, and I will fight until the end of my days. The moon shines upon my tiny figure, lulling me to sleep. It's too bad that I can't stay up all night like you, the moon, or is it Sebastian? You always feel so close to me, but I know you and I are different. I walk on this ground with my small feet, while you simply fly around taunting me. You are cold, but warm at the same time. I know I shouldn't feel special that you're with me. You're simply following your principles, living as you should, like the moon that illuminates the darkness of the night sky, as it was created to do so.
Darkness...I am not afraid of it. Unlike the moon, you are not the light in my darkness, but the one who guides me through it, to help me use the darkness as a weapon.
Wherever I go, I cannot escape from you. Even if I go to the other side of the globe, the moon will shine down on me, unveiling that wretched agony.
Author's note: My first Kuroshitsuji fic (seriously written), inspired by the songs Lacrimosa & Gloria by Kalafina. If I ever decide to add to this, I will, it's a spur of the moment kinda thing so sorry for any errors! Please do point them out. ^^
Author's note 2: In your reviews, let's try the Pocky system (I'm a Pocky lover people XD). For each chapter you review, you get to give any character in the chap a box of Pocky (any flavor, even if you just made it up) and state your reason for choosing that flavor. For example:
"A box of chocolate Pocky for Ciel for being so childish!"
PLEASE REVIEW! AND DON'T FORGET THE POCKY!
