CHAPTER 2: The Truth?

CIEL'S POV

I wake up to find myself in a bed. There is a small candle next to my bed. Even though the room was dim I could see the dark purple diamond wallpaper and the unique furniture. I sit up and find myself to be already wearing my night shirt. I stepped down from the bed and pushed my feet into the slippers Sebastian left.

As I walked out the room a bright orange glow gleamed out from the corridor. I walked towards it. On my way down I saw... E-Elizabeth? A painting of Elizabeth... dead. B-but why would someone paint this? Who painted this? What kind of person could have?...

"Are you okay young master?" I hear a voice call out. I turn around to discover Sebastian. "W-who did this?!" I yelled pointing to the painting. "Ah, I don't know." He replied with an odd smile. I grabbed his shirt. "Sebastian, why?! You know I won't really be able to see them again?!" I yelled feeling tears run down my face.

He wiped the tears of my face. "Let go of me." He snarled. I was suprised. He hasn't been this rude since... "How dare you! You are simply a butler... my butler and I AM YOUR MASTER!" I screeched. *Thud* I felt myself hit the floor and a tingling, burning sensation on my face. "You are a demon now, just like me. Don't think because you are a demon your debt to me is repaid. You owe me, Ciel." He said with a sneer and a look of disgust.

I was yet again surprised. Was...was that how he really felt?... I turned around and walked back towards my room. 'What a joke. I hate him... I hate him... I..I' tears began rolling down my face as I thought this. Why am I even crying. He is just a simple butler.

SEBASTIAN'S POV

What a snotty brat. He has the nerve to yell at me. I painted that painting to scare him. I wanted to see what his pained face looked like. When he saw the paonting and cried... that face was surprisingly... cute. I want to cause him more pain. Especially when I can't eat his delicious soul. Well... I can't eat something that's not there. How utterly idiotic.

I followed him to his room and stood outside the door. I could tell he was crying. He really does care for Elizabeth. How stupid. Young love. What's there to love? What even is love? There is no such thing.

CIEL'S POV

How could Sebastian be so cruel. I...I guess I did treat him wrong. I'm such an idiot. I mean how could I be so stupid. Why can't things just be like they were. I want to see his usual smile. He hasn't smiled since I became a demon and that 'smile' earlier was not a smile. Is it really because of my soul?

I hate this. My chest hurts. What is this feeling. I want to see Sebastian. I want to apologize. Wait... why do I have to apologize. What am I thinking... D-Do I love him?!
