[Ciel's POV] Chapter 2:

I sat there for the rest of the night refusing to go through another one of those dreams; they hurt me mentally and it's causing me to go almost completely insane. When the sun rises I sat up rubbing at my dry eyes and got up, ever since I started not to sleep much I've been up before anyone else in the manor, usually it's just Sebastian here of course. Sebastian enters the room moments later and says "Good morning young master; you are up early today any reason why?" I shrug and say "Just a nightmare nothing more," He helps me into my clothes for the day and we head downstairs for the dining room. That dream was haunting me more than any nightmare that I've ever has, every feeling I swear I can feel as if they happened, Sebastian's lips against mine; his gloved hand caressing my hair and holding my chin so I'd look at him. Blush fought to creep up my cheeks when I thought of this but I pushed it away ashamed; what has gotten into me lately? Maybe I am going insane since I started getting those dreams, they could mean something that I do not understand; or I'm just losing my sanity. Whoever said a demon had to be completely sane; I could be losing my very sanity.

When I get downstairs I see all of Sebastian's family standing around casually in the living room. Sebastian and I walk downstairs and when they see us Juniper says "Good morning Ciel, I hope you slept well." Cocking an eyebrow I say "Yeah I slept fine," She is still smiling as she says "Well since you don't have a true family anymore we figured you'd like a new one. Dimitri and I have come to a decision and we'd like you to join our family, we want to adopt you." Her words surprise me but I don't show it, what should I say? Do I really want to be pulled into the life of a demon family, it definitely would be something new. "I'm sorry but I must decline, I just don't think I am ready for something as big as that." I say causing a look of disappointment to spread across Juniper and Dimitri. Another thing I just can't imagine Sebastian becoming my older brother that'd be way too weird. Juniper sighs and says "Just think about it for a bit; we'd love to have you as part of our family."

After declining their request their presence began to get very uncomfortable; it seems my choice changed it all. We didn't do much after that until they left; making everything go straight back to the way it was... almost. Sitting in my study I am doing nothing more than letting all those dreams haunt me along with my emotions. Right now I feel full of confusion; why do I blush at the thought of that dream, why do I crave the feeling of Sebastian's arms around me, why do I want him?

~Dream~

"Sinned and cursed child today I shall mark you with the brand of a noble beast." a bland male voice says through the pit of blackness. I have no clue where I am but I am scared, I admit I am scared of what is to come from this. I am in a dark bottomless pit but I'm not falling, just staying in mid-air. Suddenly a burning painful sensation starts causing me to gasp and slightly arch my back but it's as if I'm pinned in place. I now know what's going on, this is yet another painful nightmare. The scene suddenly changes and now I'm locked in a cage all alone and that burning pain has been replaced with a deep hunger. I look around but all I see are more children like me, stuck alone and left for dead. Out of the blue Sebastian comes up to the cage and bends the bars helping me out. Now bridal style in his' arms I relax a little until I realize where he is heading; the sacrifice table. Before I have time to even struggle I'm pinned to the table. In a flash I see an inhumanly fast slash of a knife and a quick overload of pain wakes me from my dream.

~End of Dream~

My eyes flash open to find myself in my office and I see Sebastian on one knee looking up at me and I realize I fell asleep. Taking in my situation still full of shock without control of myself I jump into Sebastian's arms and stuff my face in his chest, I'm sure this is a surprise for him. "Young Master?" Sebastian says in a surprised and confused tone. Bringing up my small shaky fist I place them on his chest and say "Please don't ever betray me." I feel warm arms wrap around me causing me to slightly relax and Sebastian says "Never, I will never betray you young master." Sebastian picks me up still in his arms bridal style and he starts walking towards the study door, he's going to take me to my room. The dream suddenly flashes through my mind right to the point with Sebastian causing me to freeze and slightly tense up. Sebastian notices this and says "It was only a dream young master nothing more." Looking up at him I lay my head on his chest and close my eyes, I never want him to leave me again. I want to be with him forever.
