Chapter One: The Wedding Plans
Sebastian's POV
Today was March 10th, 1895. My Young Master is now twenty years old and in three days, he will be marrying Lady Elizabeth Ethel Cordelia Midford. He does not want to, however, because for the past five years, he and I have been having a secret affair. On his fifteenth birthday, I confessed how I felt and it turned out that he'd felt the same way. We both loved each other, but now, the struggle was being able to keep that love. Lady Elizabeth wanted many children, seeing her with my Lord made me angry; she would kiss his cheeks and hug him, whisper things into his ears. The Young Master was demon, he would without a doubt outlive Lady Elizabeth, the plan had been that they would marry and in many years she would pass. But I could not wait thirty, forty, fifty or something years! I loved Ciel, and I would fight for him.
I walked into my beloved's room this morning and pulled back the curtains, "Ciel, time to wake up..." He allowed me to call him by name in private, only in private. He groaned and sat up slowly, yawning and stretching, I poured him his favourite tea, Twinings: Earl Grey and handed him the cup, he smiled and sniffed it, "Earl Grey," he said, I gave him a today's newspaper before going to his wardrobe to pick out his clothes for today. "Sebastian, what's my schedule for the day?" Ciel said, I sighed, "You will be spending the day with Lady Elizabeth picking out decorations and catering for the wedding. You will also be getting your suit fitted." I frowned, and then I felt Ciel's arms around my waist, "I just want to spend a day with you..." I looked back at him, he had his face buried in my tailcoat, I turn slightly and wrapped my arms around him, "I know, love... But, we can't for now... Don't worry; you won't have to marry Elizabeth... I promise." He smiled at me and pushed up on his toes a little, he was still much shorter than I was, I leaned down a little for him and smile as I felt his soft lips on mine. I closed my eyes and held that loving kiss for what I wish could have been forever, but it was only a moment. Ciel looked up at me, "I suppose I should get dressed" he said, "and go meet Elizabeth." I nodded, and quickly picked out an outfit for him for the day. "Allow me to dress you, my Lord..." I said it with a smirk, causing Ciel to blush; he nodded and stood still so I could do my work. I had to admit, I loved my job.
Ciel's POV
The day dragged on, very, very slowly. It started with meeting Elizabeth, having lunch and tea, then we went and picked a lot of decorations up, I went to a dance lesson while she shopped for a dress, then she went to help set up the church while I had my suit fitted. After all that was done we met up and had dinner. I am now back at home, thank God. Elizabeth was so excited, she invited Mey-Rin and Ran-Mao to be one of her brides maids, along with Paula and a few of her other friends. I didn't care personally, sadly, Elizabeth suggested Sebastian be the best man because he knows me the best. He accepted, and said he would have the best speech possible. Finny, Bard, Lau, Abberline, and Undertaker will also be groomsmen, they're the only people I ever considered "friends." They were all very happy to do it, especially Finny.
After getting home, I went straight to my room and flopped down on my bed. Moments later Sebastian appeared to dress me in my night-clothes. "How was your day, Ciel?" I sighed, "You were there, you should know..." Sebastian smiled, "You seemed happy all day, with Elizabeth." I sat up so he could undress me, "I was just acting, keeping her happy... She'd be devastated if I told her I didn't want to be with her." Sebastian nodded, "You are correct, my Lord... Hopefully, someday she'll understand that you are not the one for her..." I smiled and leaned forward, kissing Sebastian. "Yes, I hope so too..." And with that, I got changed and had Sebastian lay with me that night. We cuddled until we were both asleep.
