Gah! I'm so excited! I love this so much. And it's only the second chapter. But I'm in a good mood so I think I can write this chapter properly. Oh, and Ciel still has an eye-patch… just so you know.

"Ciel? Are you awake?"

Ciel opened his eyes and lights flooded into his vision. He blinked a couple times, trying to figure out where he was and who had woken him. Then he saw Sebastian's face enter his view and remembered. He must have fallen asleep without realizing it. His red eyes were filled with concern, he seemed very worried.

"Nn. Now I am."

"Oh you were asleep?" He swore under his breath, "Sorry, it's just… your things are here. Where should I put them?"

"Oh sorry, I'll get them," Ciel scrambled to get up, only to have Sebastian's strong hands push him back down.

"I'll take care of it. Just tell me where to put it."

"B-But I have a lot of things and-"he broke off when he saw Sebastian's mockingly disapproving look. Ciel sighed, "Just put it by the door. I'll unpack later."

Sebastian nodded and walked out the door and soon came back with Ciel's many bags. Ciel blushed slightly when he saw Sebastian carry all those bags at once. He placed them where he was told and walked over to Ciel and felt his forehead again. Ciel fought blush away from his cheeks. Why was he so embarrassed around this boy? Sebastian's just his roommate. There was nothing special about him. And on a completely other note, Ciel was straight!

"Ciel? Did you hear me?"

"Er… no sorry. What was that?

"I said you're not feeling as warm as before. I'm relieved. Suddenly you just started getting all red and hot and I was worried. I'm not going to be the guy who let his roommate get sick on the first day of school," Sebastian smiled, "But you seem to be better. And good timing too. Some of the other students I know want to meet you. I told them I would ask to see how you felt."

"Oh, I'm feeling fine now, thanks," and to prove his point, Ciel sat up and swung his legs off the bed. Sebastian put his hand out and Ciel hesitantly took it and Sebastian pulled it up, "Well, would you like to meet some of your new classmates?"

"Yeah, of course. I'll just get changed real quick-"

"Okay, you do that. See you in a second."

He was out in the hallway when Ciel thought of something, "Wait, Sebastian!"

Startled, Sebastian spun around and Ciel saw a glint of fear in his eyes, "What's wrong?" he asked hurriedly, "Are you okay?" He seemed anxious and worried.

"There's just something I need to ask you," Ciel looked down. He didn't want to ask Sebastian, he didn't want his new roommate to think he's weak or nervous but he had to ask.

Sebastian smirked and stood in front of the small boy, "You're nervous aren't you?"

Ciel felt like he had been stabbed in his gut, "W-Well not quite. I mean- no. It's just that, Tanaka said that… because I was so young… that maybe…"

"Some people may be jealous?"

Ciel silently nodded, afraid of what Sebastian would say. But instead of laughing or making fun of him, Sebastian sat next to him on the bed. Ciel felt his warm hand on his back and his face heated up again. As he fought to keep the blush away from his face Sebastian tried to comfort him.

"I'm going to tell you something, Ciel. I want you to promise me that you'll call for me if anyone every does anything mean to you alright? You are just as smart as them and you have just as much right to be here as they do. Can you answer me this, if anyone does anything to you, will you tell me? Will you call for me? Will you trust me?"

Ciel certainly wasn't expecting that. The reassurance was great and Ciel was reminded of a parent comforting their child on the first day of school. But no one had every shown kindness to Ciel Phantomhive before, not like this. This wasn't much but it almost brought tears to Ciel's eyes, "Yes. I'll trust you."

Sebastian smiled but he sounded urgent, "No matter what happens I want you to trust me. Okay?"

Ciel wondered about Sebastian's tone. He was hiding something Ciel knew but what was it? "Why do you make it sound so important? Is there something else you should tell me?"

Sebastian hesitated, only confirming Ciel's theory, before replying, "No, there is nothing you should know. Or you would want to know. But my question remains the same. Will you trust me?"

"Fine, whatever, now get out so I can change in peace."

"I'll see you out there. Take your time," and with that, Sebastian left. Ciel threw his suitcase on his bed and opened it. Without thinking he grabbed a pair of dark jeans and a random shirt from his folded pile. He threw the clothes he had on into the corner, resolving to deal with them later and pulled on his other ones.

I wonder what he's hiding. I said I'd trust him but not until he tells me. Maybe he's jealous as well. And why was he acting so friendly to me? Ciel was young but if there was one thing he knew, it was that no one does things for their own benefit. He wasn't sure when, but he figured it out on his own somewhere along the way. But the real question was… what was Sebastian getting from this? What did Sebastian want from him? Ciel didn't know but he didn't have time to figure it out. Much to Ciel's dismay now he had signed himself up for meeting more people. Ciel checked to make sure his eye-patch was still on tightly and walked out the door, already plastering on a fake smile.

Here we go again.

This chapter was easy then it got harder towards the end because I was still in a good mood. I hope everyone liked it anyways though. Yeah, Sebastian is super OOC but there's a reason for that, alright. Just bear with me for now. Next chapter we'll see lots of people so get ready.
