HI! so yea this was suppose to be just a oneshot, but i don't know now. i guess if people like it i will continue. it actually was inspired by my dream where I was Ciel's maid when he was littler. i thought it was an interesting dream. so yea. i do not own Kuroshitsuji, just the gal i put in here. and the title was inspired by Vienna Teng's Lullaby for a Stromy Night. so yea those lyrics and that song of course belong to her. so hopefully enjoy. o yea if i continue i know you all would probably love this to be a Sebastian story right? well i agree he is handsome, but there are too many stories of him. so it might be a Joker story, why cuz i like him nugdenugdewinkwink
Little child, be not afraid
though rain pounds harshly against the glass
like an unwanted stranger, there is no danger
I am here tonight
Ciel Phantomhive, a 12 year old boy who runs his family's business in the toy, sweet, and food department. He is never truly seen with a smile after the death of his parents and the abusive he went through. But before all that, all this, he was happy. With his mother, father, cousin Elizabeth, aunt Angelina, dog Sebastian, and his maid, Serenity. Serenity was a beautiful woman who was rather young for her looks. She also acted rather mature and motherly. She stood tall with long deep sky blue hair and sparkling sapphire eyes. She wore light blue lipstick that stood out against her pale skin. Her clothes were a traditional maid outfit, a light blue bow around her neck, dark blue dress with a white apron outlined in light blue over it along with some white stockings and black shoes. She was also his mother's maid. She happily took care of both of them, whether it was dressing, bathing, cooking meals, and helping them both when they felt ill. She would play with Ciel, read him bedtime stories, and sing him to sleep. He remembered adoring her soft voice, and would listen to her heart beat as she rocked him back and forth. He loved her, and knew she loved him.
Little child, be not afraid
though thunder explodes and lightning flash
illuminates your tear-stained face
I am here tonight
As Sebastian dressed him for bed, Ciel suddenly remembered the maid who used to take care of him. He never truly knew what happened to her, if she died in the fire. Looking down at his sapphire ring, he remembered her kind eyes. He laid in bed, and Sebastian left, a feeling of sadness washed over him. No story, no song, and no heart beat to lull him to sleep. When he closed his eyes he saw her smiling at him. He suddenly felt like crying, but he couldn't, he had no tears left. And even if he did, he wouldn't. It was almost like he could feel her hand wash over his hair and rub his cheek. Her skin was so soft, even though she cleaned and gardened. He could almost hear the soft song she would sing and the sweet piano she would play. Soon he found himself enveloped in darkness, then a bright flash. He then saw a younger self and his maid in his old room.
And someday you'll know
that nature is so
the same rain that draws you near me
falls on rivers and land
on forests and sand
makes the beautiful world that you'll see in the morning
Dream/flash back.
Young Ciel snuggled closer to Serenity as she rocked him back and forth. It was storming out, rain pelted hard, thunder boomed, and lightning flashed. Ciel and Serenity both disliked storms. Usually Ciel would go into his parent's room, but they were out to a party they had to attend.
Little child, be not afraid
though storm clouds mask your beloved moon
and its candlelight beams, still keep pleasant dreams
I am here tonight
"It's alright dear, it will soon pass." Serenity cooed as she rubbed his back. Ciel was silently being lulled to sleep by her voice and the thumbing of her heart. Older Ciel watched as she carried his younger form over to his bed and tucked him in. Ciel's hand shot up from under the covers and grabbed on to Serenity's dress.
little child, be not afraid
though wind makes creatures of our trees
and their branches to hands, they're not real, understand
and I am here tonight
"Please stay." He whimpered. She smiled as he scooted over and let her under the covers. He nuzzled his head into her chest and fell asleep. A bright flash erupted and lead Ciel into another memory.
He was in a room with his mother, as he could not play outside, as it was still raining. Serenity walked in with a tray that held a small cake, tea cups, and a tea pot. She set it down by Rachel(Ciel's mom) and poured some tea. She then cut the cake and gave a piece to Ciel, then one to Rachel.
"Thank you Serenity, your cakes are always the sweetest." Rachel said sweetly. Serenity smiled kindly and bow lightly.
"Thank you milady." Ciel happily ate his cake but stopped when he saw Serenity about to leave the room.
well now I am grown
and these years have shown
that rain's a part of how life goes
"Wait!" He called out. He ran over and motioned for her to come closer. Serenity kneeled down and Ciel took her hand. He opened it and placed something in it, then closed it. "Thank you for staying." He whispered then ran back to his mother and cake. She opened her hand and smiled softly, then she left the room. Ciel remembered that he gave her something he made. A brightly painted purple lightning bolt necklace, with dark purple and light purple beads decorating the string. It was a symbol of the stormy nights they had. He knew she hated the thunder and lightning. When he asked why, she said she always disliked the big booms and bright flashes. A few days later he received an identical looking necklace, with dark blue and light blue beads.
but it's dark and it's late
so I'll hold you and wait
'til your frightened eyes do close
Another bright flash forced him to look away. When it died down he saw he was standing in a field of flowers, much like the one where he and Serenity used to go. He looked forward and saw Serenity standing before him, with her soft smile. She walked towards him and wrapped her arms around him. She rested her chin on the top of his head and ran her fingers through his hair. He could feel the warmth of her hug, her fingers running through his hair. He could feel the tears drop on his head.
"Ciel." She whispered. Ciel bolted awake from the suns rays. When Sebastian came in with Ciel's breakfast he was greeted by the site of his master looking distraught.
And I hope that you'll know…
"Sebastian." He said, with a firm tone. "We need to pay Undertaker a visit." Sebastian had a confused face but smiled, wondering what Ciel was thinking.
"Yes, my lord."
Everything's fine in the mourning
the rain'll be gone in the mourning
But I'll still be here in the mourning
