"Are you sure about this Sebastian, I mean if they don't like me, won't that reflect badly on you for choosing to spend forever with someone the can't stand, I don't want you to-" Sebastian wrapped his arms around Ciel.
"I am certain that my parents will adore you. You saved my life, and you make me truly happy, something I never believed I could feel. Those facts alone have already gotten you off to an excellent start. But to answer your question, no it won't, they tolerate my older brother's mate for the sake of keeping my family together. My mother has no desire to lose her children you see. I does not matter to me honestly though ot would be easier if they love you, I would chose you every time and above all else, including my title as Prince."
"I wouldn't want you to have to do that just for me. I can't expect you to just turn away from them because they hate me." Ciel said leaning into Sebastian sadly.
"You worry far too much my love. You were to be married as a human, how did you -"
"First of all, it was arranged when I was very small, I had no say in it. Second, they were already family and I didn't exactly get along with them and third, I love Lizzy, I really do, I just don't love her the way I love you so I dreaded the entire thing and was planning to put it off as long as possible." Sebastian chuckled.
"You poor tormented boy." He teased.
"Yes, i am actually."
"I've noticed." The older demon sighed contentedly, he loved holding his former master.
"Have I told you lately that I love you my dear?" Ciel smiled.
"You never miss a chance to tell me and show me in some way. It's nice. Is this what our eternity will be like?"
"Yes. I will never allow a day to pass that I don't do those things. Just because that ring is on your finger, does not mean that I will stop showing you how precious you are to me. It is an eternal commitment that you and I are making, so it is only fitting that my affection be eternal as well."
"Forever is a very long time Sebastian, there will be bad times as well as good, what will you do when you find that you no longer love me as you do now, tire of me?" Sebastianplaced a slender hand under the boy's chin forcing him to meet his gaze.
"That could never happen. You are my one and only mate, the one that has taken my heart, If I thought that I couldn't truly spend my life with you, even if we argue, I would never have given you that ring. Each time you look down at your hand, I want you to think of it as having those three words wrapped around your finger. They will always be true and there will never be anyone else."
Ciel gave Sebastian a small squeeze.
"I love you so much. I guess I'm just nervous, how do I address them, what do I say, what do I do?"
"Be who you are and let them love you for you, not what you think they wish you were. Never change for others. I will teach you everything you need to know in the way of our customs and the proper way to address my mother and father. You will be fine."
"Do you think so, or are you just trying to make me feel better?"
"Perhaps a bit of both."
"Wonderful" Ciel muttered sarcastically. Sebastian wasn't surprised to hear the light growl from Ciel's stomach.
"When were you going to tell me that you are hungry?"
"A little later. I wanted to be sure you were feeling alright first."
"You should not wait so long my love. You will make yourself ill, I would never forgive myself if that happened. I want you to sit down, I will return momentarily."
"Don't do it if you aren't up to it, I could find something else." Ciel called after him.
"I promise you that I am able to provide this for you. Just sit down, I don't want you feeling faint suddenly and hurting yourself." Sebastian kissed the top of Ciel's head and went about preparing Ciel's meal. The former Earl lay down on the sofa and waited. His nerves were getting the best if him. He had just three days to learn all Sebastian could teach him, he hoped it would be enough.
