A Little Story in Future: Sebastian's Diary

Chap. 1:

In Her 14 years old: A Night when You can't Sleep

"Good night, Young Miss." I said and shut the door of her room.

It had been 6 month after that incident. Young Miss was sick and she almost lost her life. But, I cured her and expanded her lifespan till 6 years.

It was unexpected. How could I let myself did something stupid like that?

Let her live and lost the chance to consume her soul that I really wanted.

I must be crazy.

I bet there's something wrong in my head. But, still, I have no regret of what I did. That's the one that made me never stop thinking. Why? Why don't I even regret it?

No, I won't let myself to think a bit about it. I have to continue with my work.

Then, I'm return to the butler room to make the necessary preparation for tomorrow.

——

"Sebastian," someone called me from back of the door.

"Young Miss, why are you here in this late of the night?" I wondered when I see her entering the room.

"I can't sleep. I've got a nightmare," she said.

"A nightmare?"

"It's about you."

"About me? How can it be a nightmare for you?" I smirked on her.

"It seems that I still can't forget about Sir William's case."

I walked to her. "It already passed a year ago. You should forget it."

"Maybe I'm just still scared you will betray me someday, again," she smirked.

"How silly you are! You know that I would never betray you," I lift her chin up and made her look at me.

She smiled and slapped my hand softly. Our eyes were met.

"By the way, I always wondered this, but— do you ever sleep?" she asked.

"No, I'm not. I'm a demon. I don't need to sleep," I answered.

"That's right," she smiled.

"Then, can we go back to the bedroom, Young Miss?"

"No, I don't want to sleep."

"You can't. As a butler, I won't let my master to stay awake in the middle of the night."

"Then…Young Miss, please back to your room!" Intentionally, I stressed those four last words.

"Tch! Suck!" she groaned, but she knew that she could not win against me.

I accompanied her back to her room.

"Then, good night, Young Miss."

"Wait, Sebastian!" suddenly she called me when I reached the door.

"What is it, Young Miss?"

"Stay here until I fall asleep! I don't want to get that nightmare back."

"My, my, I don't know that you are so weak," I said.

"Shut up and do as I command!"

I smirked and walk back to her bed. And, when I was at her side, suddenly she reached out my hand.

"Don't let it go until I fall asleep!"

"Yes, My Lady."

I put the candle on the table and stroke her hair gently with my other hand and landed a soft, little kiss on her lips.

"You won't leave me, will you?" she asked suddenly.

"Yes, I will stay at your side as long as you want me. Till the very depth hell, I will be your companion," I whispered. "You know that I never lie to you."

She smiled and put my hand, which hold hers on her face. "Promise me, my dear demon," she said, then close her eyes.

I startled, but soon put a smirk on my face. I stroke her face gently and whispered to her ear softly, "I promise, My Beloved."
