Birthday (Ciel pov)

Today is my birthday..but no happiness comes with it on this day. Nothing good comes from my birthday. I was to told I was unclean, unnecessary, unwanted...so why celebrate my birthday.

It's the day my parents died. The day I was taken away..the day I was truly alone.

My father was going to give me a present...
my mother was going to read me stories..I was going to spend all night with them.

Instead the fate that awaited me was a fire. A burning mansion, a kidnapping, and the death of my parents..
I was branded on that night.
That searing pain..
and pain in my very soul..
that was my birthday present. So do I want to celebrate my birthday...? No...not anymore..not anymore...
