"Alois, please try to behave in a responsible manner" I said to the flaxen-haired teen seated next to me. He'd insisted upon sitting by the window and was now staring out intently at the streets of London. "moron" I muttered under my breath. "It's way to cold to go out. Why couldn't we have just stayed at home?" I moaned.

"Because." Alois said, not bothering to give further explanation. I wasn't particularly looking forward to a day of being dragged around London by the stupid blonde, but, as usual. He somehow managed to persuade me. Why was I friends with him of all people?Although, I must admit... I did rather enjoy myself.

We spent most of the day walking around London, just sight-seeing. Of course Alois dragged me into a couple of shops on the way, but that was only to be expected from the blonde The day went by rather quickly, it was already dark, and probably about time to go home. The city looked so beautiful, all lit up, almost glowing. Alois sat by the window of the big glass pod, the lights from the city making his skin glow slightly. He looked, well, beautiful. It was a stupid thought. There was no way I could fall for a complete idiot lie Alois. I had a girlfriend for Christ's sake! I stared out at the city. It had started to snow.

"Happy Birthday, Ciel" Alois said. As I turned around to face him he kissed me. Gently at first, but he quickly deepened the kiss. As soon as the shock of having my best friend kiss me passed, I started to kiss back. Alois wrapped his arms around my neck, so I wrapped mine around his waist. It wasn't a particularly special kiss. Nothing out of the ordinary. But it was different. Maybe because I'd never kissed a guy before.

Alois pulled away and smirked as I felt a blush form in my cheeks,

"I hope you enjoyed your birthday present~"
