Lizzy sat at the water's edge watching her tears mix in with the lake. The girl staring up at her from the water was someone that she hardly knew anymore. She turned her attention to the photograph in her hand. A young boy with black hair and dark blue eyes smiled as he handed the younger Lizzy a pink rose.
"We were so h-happy then. I loved your smile, it really brightened my day. I remember getting that rose, I had been crying, feeling quite sad and alone, Then, then you came and-" She couldn't think about it anymore. Any memory of the boy was painful.
"Ciel, I miss you so much. It's so hard to believe that at thirteen you- I wish it was all some cruel joke and that any moment you'll come walking over to me and tell me everything's going to be alright, that you're really okay." The sobbing continued nearly uncontrollably. Never again would she be able to visit him, talk to him or look into his eyes.
After what seemed like hours, Lizzy's tears stopped, though only because there were none left to shed. Her heart still ached for Ciel, he had been many things to her, family, fiance, friend, the list could go on forever.
She continued to gaze downward, her smile she feared permanently erased from her face. Her eyes and head began to hurt from crying but in that moment she had not cared. What caused the most pain was her heart.
"Lizzy," A voice whispered from behind the trees, careful not to draw in attention. The figure watched in silence as the blonde girl remained motionless. The sounds of her sobs echoed in his mind.
"Lizzy, I'm so sorry. I never meant to hurt you. You truly are a wonderful young lady and will make someone very happy one day. My-"
"Young Master?" Ciel sighed reluctantly turning from the girl to face his butler.
"What is it Sebastian?" the demon frowned.
"If I might make a suggestion, perhaps we should go, you've seen that Lady Elizabeth is quite alright and it only seems to be upsetting you"
"Explain to me your definition of 'alright Sebastian, because she bloody well does not look alright to me." The boy snapped angrily.
"I simply meant that perhaps to linger here is not wise, you only wanted to make sure she was safe. To stand here, even among the trees, she could see us and well, given the circumstances.." He allowed his voice to trail off.
"I suppose you're right. Yes Sebastian, let's go." The pair turned to begin their eternal journey.
A/N: I'm thinking of continuing this story but I'm not quite sure yet. I sort of have the idea for it but as of now I can't see where it might end up... Anyway thanks for reading and hopefully reviewing and I hope you enjoy it. No flames please. Also I don't own Black Butler.
