Secretive Games
Random idea. :P Again. It's in Ciel's POV, btw.
I do not own Black Butler/Kuroshitsuji.
I don't know why I brought it up. But I did. I said it randomly as he was buttoning up my nightshirt.
"Sebastian, I have a secret that you'll never know unless I tell you"
He paused, looked at me, and smirked.
"I doubt that, my lord"
He continued to button my shirt. Right before he could finish, I asked,
"Do I love Elizabeth as a lover?"
He looked at me again. He was confused this time, but he replied nonetheless.
"I should hope so, young master. She is your fiancee, after all"
I smirked this time, watching his confusion deepen.
"If you truly think that, then you do not know my secret"
Sebastian was shocked, I could tell, but he didn't speak again until he finished buttoning my shirt.
"So, your secret is that you do not love Lady Elizabeth?"
"In a way, that is it. But only half of it" I replied, still with a smirk. I looked up at him, challenging.
"What do you think the other half is?"
"I can only assume that it is that you are in love with another, though I cannot imagine whom" he replied.
This was dangerous, I knew, but that didn't stop me from saying my next words.
"Well, how about I give you the next week to try and figure it out? You can ask for hints, but only one per day"
He looked down at me, a devious smirk on his face.
"I accept that challenge, my lord"
"Excellent. The game starts tomorrow, and you must wait a span of at least twenty-four hours between your hints"
"Yes, my lord" he replied, bowing. I crawled into bed, and he tucked me in.
"Goodnight, young master"
As soon as he left, when I was certain that it was safe, I buried my head into my pillow and screamed.
