Author's Note: Hello and welcome to the sequel of Si J'avais Su. We welcome you with open arms back to our budding romance of Ciel and Sebastian. Please grab your popcorn, sit down, and make yourself comfortable. It's gonna be a bumpy ride.

Ciel Phantomhive opened his text messages, sighing sadly when he realized there was nothing to see. Nothing new from his boyfriend and childhood best friend, Sebastian Michaelis, who had been at college for a week - three hours away. His frown deepened as he typed out a short 'hey' and hit send.

His friends sat around the lunch table, chatting hastily about classes and summer vacation. Though it was only the second day of school, Ciel had little to say. His worst-enemy-turned-best-friend, Grelle, was sitting beside him just as quietly, rubbing her pregnant belly. At five months along, she was doing rather well with the pregnancy and Ciel applauded her on it. Lizzy, Ciel's cousin, sat beside Grelle talking about a cute dress she'd found for graduation over the summer. Ciel rolled his eyes to that. Graduation wasn't for another nine months. Baldroy - everyone called him Bard - had his girlfriend, Meyrin, sat upon his lap speaking to Grelle's brother, William and his boyfriend, Ronald. Meyrin was surprisingly listening to Lizzy. Meyrin's younger brother, Finnian, was nowhere to be found.

"Oh, Ciel! I found the cutest outfit for you, too!" Lizzy shouted suddenly, making Ciel's eyes raise from his phone in surprise. "Would you come with me so I can show you?"

Ciel put his thumb and forefinger to the bridge of his nose. "Lizzy, graduation isn't even close to happening, so no. I will not come with you."

Grelle gave a small grin. "Oh, come on, how bad would it be to humor her? Besides, you might love what you see." She turned her golden-emerald eyes onto him, raising a petite maroon eyebrow.

Ciel fell back in his chair, groaning slightly. "Ugh. Fine, I'll go." Lizzy and Meyrin squealed, clapping their hands. "Grelle has to come, too," he said immediately after.

Grelle gave another smile. "Of course I'll come." She looked down at her stomach, frowning suddenly. "I don't know if I'll be able to try anything on. I won't have this little girl when we graduate."

Ciel rolled his eyes. "Don't call my future nephew a girl. You refuse to find out the sex, don't assume."

"Hey, this child is a girl. I can feel it."

Finnian came bounding over, slamming his hands on the table. Everyone turned to him, eyes wide. His breathing was hard. "Hey, can my friend sit with us?" he huffed out. "He's new. He came to prom. He doesn't know anyone."

Meyrin scoffed. "Sure, Finny, whatever. Just don't interrupt people, okay?"

He grinned and turned around, waving his whole arm.

Ciel looked down at his phone again, shaking his head. "Why hasn't Sebastian text me yet?" he asked. "He was supposed to meet his new roomate today."

Grelle grabbed the phone from his hands and looked through the messages. "My god, Ciel, it's been a week. Do you guys have to sext so much, seriously?"

The empty seat beside him was suddenly filled as his cheeks heated slightly. "It's not like that!" he hissed, snatching his phone back from Grelle.

"Not like what?" the newcomer asked. Ciel turned to face the boy, heterochromatic orbs opening further. This kid was cute, almost girly-cute. Muddy hair circled his face, bangs hung over his left eye as if to hide something, but the diamond-blue color was gorgeous. Freckles dotted over his nose and cheeks, and a happy-go-lucky smile was stuck on his full lips.

Ciel stared in awe, his mouth hanging slightly slack. "So many freckles," he breathed. Then he shook his head. "Uh… We're talking about my boyfriend," he said louder, scratching the back of his head.

"Oh, you're Ciel, then? Finny was going to introduce us at prom. You were the one in the blue outfit, right?"

Ciel could only nod.

"Well, nice to finally meet you. I'm Freckles." He gave another goofy grin, his visible eye closing. "Your boyfriend is really nice. Sebastian, was it?"

Grelle was sitting there with a hand over her mouth, trying to hold in her laughter. She could tell Ciel was starstruck, even though he was completely in love with Sebastian. Ciel cleared his throat. "Y-Yeah. Sebastian Michaelis is his name."

"I met him at prom. He was pretty cool. I liked him." Freckles nodded, crossing his legs in a very feminine fashion.

Ciel's smirked slightly. This cutie is kinda fun...


Sebastian sat on his bed, reading a book, when his phone began to go off. He opened the text and smiled, typing out a response. Before he could hit send, someone knocked on the door. He looked up to find a boy with stunningly bright orange long hair with bleached tips and plum colored eyes. He had a bag slung over his shoulder and a cocky smirk across his lips.

"Hey, is this room two-twenty?"

"Uh… Yeah, I'm Sebastian. You are?"

The boy walked over to the unoccupied bed and set his stuff down. "I'm Joker. Nice to meetcha, roomie." He held out a… hand? Sebastian stared at the bone-like structure in surprise. "Oh, sorry." Joker offered his other hand. "I lost my arm as a kid. Had this prosthetic ever since. Didn't mean to freak you out." He grinned as Sebastian took his actual hand and shook.

Sebastian picked up his phone again, hitting the send button finally. He hoped Ciel wasn't freaking out over this. He missed his lover dearly.

"So you got a girlfriend back home?" Joker asked as he began unpacking his things. "Last time I saw a guy looking so troubled was when a girl wouldn't get off his back."

"Boyfriend, actually," he responded. "We just started dating before graduation." He shook his head, running a hand through his perfectly charcoal colored hair. "He wasn't happy about me moving so far away."

Joker laughed loudly. "And that is exactly why I broke up with mine before I left. No way am I letting a girl keep me tied down while I'm supposed to be having fun."

"What was she like?" Sebastian asked, hardly paying attention, but wanting to at least seem friendly.

"Beast?" Joker turned to look at Sebastian with concern. "She's very aggressive if she doesn't get her way. She has a really short temper and it was really just annoying." He rolled his eyes before returning to his things. "So what are you planning on doing tonight?"

Sebastian sighed. "I was gonna call Ciel and then probably go to bed. I have classes early tomorrow. First day and all."

Joker laughed again, shaking his head. "That's lame! You gotta come to this party with me. It'll be fun. I wouldn't be here if I didn't know how fucking sick the parties were."

Sebastian bit his lip. "I don't know… I mean, I don't really know anyone here."

"That's why you go to parties. We're going. Three hours. Get ready."

Sebastian rolled his eyes, obviously unable to say no.

Sebastian had been at the party for two hours and had talked exclusively to horny, college girls. He had channeled his inner gentleman and turned them each down respectfully, but the beer in his hand - the fourth one now - had almost told him to go for it.

Then he remembered Ciel back at home.

He began making his way toward the kitchen to get his fifth beer, possibly to find Joker. He hadn't decided quite yet. There was a girl by the bar, staring at him with a shot glass in hand. Hovering over her was Joker. He was flirting with her and it definitely wasn't working, judging by the bedroom eyes she was throwing at Sebastian.

He walked closer, gave her a polite smile, then grabbed Joker's arm. He leaned down to whisper into his ear, "I'm headed back to the dorm. I'll see you later."

Joker waved him off and Sebastian went home. He pulled out his cell phone, seeing several missed calls and texts from Ciel.

He was in trouble.
