(Sebastian's POV)


"Why am I so tired?" I asked myself preparing the Master's morning tea.

I loaded the tea onto my cart and rolled it to the the Young Lord's room.

I came to the door, opening it quietly.

"Young Lord, it's time for you to wake." I called over to the sleeping child.

Ciel's eyes fluttered open as I got out his day clothes. He swung his legs off the side of his bed.

I grabbed the teapot and poured a bit into a cup for Master.

He calmly excepted as I started to dress him.

"Lady Elizabeth is coming around 1:00. After her visit you will be free for the day." I explained.

"I know she is Sebastian!" He snapped. Ciel was really dreading his fiancée's visit.

"Now, Young Lord, where would you like your breakfast?" I asked. "Bring it to my study." Ciel replied. "Yes, my Lord." I said with a bow.

I did as told and brought the Master's breakfast to his study.

I stood watching Ciel eat. As usual he was working while eating.

As I stood I felt a yawn growing in my throat. I tied to hold it in but couldn't. I ended up yawning quite loudly. Ciel didn't say anything but the feel of the room changed. I could feel his aggravation from my distracting yawn.

I looked at the time, it was nearly 10:00.

"I must go and prepare lunch for the guest that will be arriving soon." I bowed to Young Lord and walked out.

As the hours went by, closing in on Lady Elizabeth's arrival, I started to grow more and mores tired.

"CIELLLLLLL!" I heard a loud call. Lady Elizabeth was upon us.

I finished up and went to greet our guest.

I walked to the mansion foyer to find a very anxious Lady Elisabeth.

"Lady Elizabeth, I will escort you to where Master Ciel is located." I said bowing.

"Thank you Sebastian! You're so kind!" She cried.

I lead her to Young Master's study.

I knocked on the door listening for a reply.

"Come in."

I opened the door for Lady Elizabeth.

"Ciel!" She chirped happily, racing to her fiancé. She planted a kiss on his cheek.

"Hello Elizabeth." Ciel said. "Ciel, it's Lizzie!" She cried crossing her arms in a pout. "Fine… Lizzie." Ciel sighed.

"Lunch preparations are nearly done. I will come get you when I'm finished." I said bowing to the Young Earl and his fiancé.

Soon I finished lunch preparations and I brought the young Master and his fiancée to the dining room to eat what I had made.

"Today I have prepared a fresh greens salad with homemade croutons and a light blue cheese dressing. Along with Master's favorite Earl Grey tea." I explained.

"This taste splendid, Ciel, Sebastian is wonderful!" Lady Elizabeth cried.

"He's highly qualified for a reason Lizzie." Ciel replied.

I stood near Ciel and Elizabeth. But I was growing more and more tired; nearly exhausted. So tired my vision was starting to blur and my body started to feel weak.

My legs gave way and I fell, clinging to a chair. Young Lord noticed and immediately reacted. While Elizabeth sat shocked at my sudden weakness.

"What's wrong Sebastian?" He asked. "I'm fine Young lord." I replied, trying to find my balance. But as I tried to stand up straight, my legs again gave way and I fell to the floor.

Young Master stood up from his chair, a concerned look on his face.

"I order you to tell me what's wrong!" He yelled. "I'm tired, energy drained." I replied.

"Are you overworked? Ciel you should give him days off!" Elizabeth scolded. Ciel sighed. "Are you overworked Sebastian?" He asked. I grabbed the chair and pulled myself up. "Perhaps…" I replied. 'What's wrong with me? I don't usually need sleep. So why and I so tired?' I thought.

"Your dismissed. Go catch up on your sleep Sebastian." Young Master said. "But Lord I'll be fine once I collect myself." I protested getting up. "See?" I asked. "Sebastian don't make me order you!" He demanded.

"I don't need an incapable butler. Now off to you room!" He yelled. "Yes, my lord." I said giving a bow.

I followed Master's order as gathered enough strength to drag myself up to my room.

'I don't get it. The last time I even slept was 100 years ago. When I slept though days in hell to pass time. So why am I feeling so exhausted?' I asked myself.

I'm made it to my room and got ready to go to sleep.

I undressed and changed into my nightwear; coming to the side of my bed. I climbed into the covers and steadily started to fall asleep.

To be Continued…


A.N.- How'd you all like my story so far? I hope people read this. I'd be heartbroken if you didn't. But anyway, the reason I started writing this was for 1- I'm in LOVE with Bassy, and there aren't enough stories where he gets sick. There are literally three! THREE! Not counting this one. Hope you all liked it. Also this will NOT be a yaoi fic. I'm sorry, it's cute, Yaoi, but you won't find me writing any. The closest Yaoi to ever be in this story is Bassy and Ciel's friendship and bond becoming stronger. Well… on second though I may end up writing a Yaoi story for Grell and Bassy. Anyway, see you peeps later and please review!
