There was a big fight with some new enemies that Ciel and Sebastian had to take care of, the only problem was that they were Reapers, but fallen-rebellious had a hard time fighting all three of them and somehow managed to win but with grave both the Earl and the butler did no know was,that there was one that survived and one last he had demon had protected his little Master, resulting in both the reaper and Sebastian dying.
Ciel was left all alone in the mansion with the other servants and they all grieved the loss of the butler, only the Earl would seem alright and cold as always, but only when he would be alone, he would think about Sebastian and let his mask crumble, fall and show his own inner fight.
Loneliness, pain, agony, hate and most of all betrayal would be the only things his once loyal Knight had left him, even if he promised to stay with him until his revenge was over, until he could eat his soul.
"Why…have you lied to me…"
After some days,weeks the Earl was walking around the garden,looking at the roses that once again reminded him of his remembered all the things they had done and went through,all the promises and soft words they had exchanged after they got closer. The memories were like a dull knife, stabbing and twisting around in his heart, in what was left of one that had ever come closer to him in the end left, no one,not even a demon, could stay by his side.
He would come back to look at roses, his favorite snow white ones that Sebastian had took care of and every time the Noble started destroying the flowers, hitting them with his cane over and over again when one day suddenly he heard soft mewling, turning around he spotted a black kitten with big dark brown eyes,wearing a red bow with a little bell attached to it. It was another thing reminding him of the damned liar that dared to leave him behind, and what was worse the cat to follow him around no matter what turn he took, how many times he had kicked at it, yelled at it… and so was it day after day.
But with time the Phantomhive became tolerate of the feline and could come a bit closer because it seemed that more time he had spent with him, more the allergy seemed to had time to adjust to the little thing. They became a nice pair that would spend the days outside with Ciel reading the newspapers or books and drinking tea, while the cat would sit by his feat enjoying his company.
One day the boy,who was setting on the steps of his mansion was looking at the black companion he had gained in the past months."You know..now that
"You are here with me…i should give you a name…I will call you…Demon …because you remind me so much of that person, of so many things are there that you share with him. Doing the same..following me around even if I did not want you to…stayed by my side even if I said go away…and slowly slowly you crawled into my heart…". And for the first time after Sebastian had been gone the strong and cold child would break down, and hid his face in his knees."..the only difference Demon…y-you wont leave wont leave me… after you made me love you….
The cat on the other hand would sit every night in front of his Masters door , watching out that no one would come too close to him, no one would hurt him the boy was precious, unique and one of a kind-the reason he had come back.
Sometimes the feline would slip inside the room,a shadow would form around it and the demon,who always was by the Earl would stand next to the bed ,kissing the boys cheek softly., a sorrowful and guilty expression would be on his always well controlled face."But my Lord..my Master.. my only one…I never left.I told you and even you said the same, that even if I die and perish..I will find a way to come back to you…"
