Disclaimer: I own nothing. Not the song, the characters….just the idea.
Song: Rascall Flatts-Stand.
Ciel waited in the darkness a red silk cloth his only warmth against the black abyss that he had sunk into. He was floating on his back in midair. The sudden quiet was more nerve wracking than the torture he had endured the past few hours.
You feel like a candle, in a hurricane.
Suddenly black feathers fell, they felt more solid and real than everything he had ever known. A voice followed, soft and silky like the feathers, but Ciel knew that it was a predator's voice calling from the shadows. Ciel answered the demon, clutching his pride and wondering how twisted he had to be to summon a beast like this.
Just like a picture with a broken frame.
The demon killed and slaughtered those that had held Ciel captive. He massacred the 'sacred' church in order to satisfy his new master. But as Sebastian carried Ciel away from his burning handiwork, Ciel felt as if he hadn't accomplished anything. The one who had ordered his torture was alive somewhere, he could feel it.
Alone and helpless, like you've lost your fight.
When Ciel finally arrived back at the manor, his first order was to have it restored to its former state. He wanted to remember the reason and the night that caused his scars and the new title of Earl.
Lifes like a novel, with the end ripped out.
With the funtam company growing and Elizabeth at his side, Ciel felt almost content. But the constant letters from the Queen and Sebatian's looming presence caused him to feel trapped. He had a goal and made a deal with a demon to reach that goal, backing out now to spend his life with Elizabeth felt so much like quitting.
The edge of a canyon, with only one way down.
But it was Sebastian who taught him to see the beauty in life and pleasure in the smallest things. He learned how to love Elizabeth again, how precious his family was and what true friendship meant.
Take what you're given before it's gone. Start holding on. Keep holding on.
Ciel Found that the harder he worked to solve the murder of his parents, the more he wanted to forget what he had learned. About himself and those he knew.
Every time you get up and get back in the race. One more small piece of you starts to fall into place.
The end was here and Ciel was finally satisfied. Almost happy as he laid on the raft that Sebastian slowly pushed along. He had found his parents murderer, had finally won, and now all that was left to do, was to give his soul to Sebastian.
Cause when push comes to shove, you taste what you're made of. You might bend till you break, Cause its all you can take.
But as Sebastian reached for Ciel, hunger and regret in his eyes, Ciel wanted one more thing. He wanted to remember. Every second of everyday he spent on this earth. HE wanted to endure more just to remind himself that he could.
ON your knees you look up, decide you`ve had enough. You get mad, you get strong. Wipe your hands, shake it off. Then you stand.
Then, with one final smile, Ciel felt Sebastien`s lips on his own. A final kiss farewell.
