As they walked into the large venue of crowded people minutes later, they found a decent spot close to the stage; against the wall, out of the mosh pit, and with a great view of everything. The dimmed lights occasionally flashed different colours and the stage crew was currently setting everything up. The whole area buzzed with the chatter of excited fans, and since there was a bar in the back of the venue, there were the annoying drunken shouts that stuck out of the crowd.
"Hello London!" The all too familiar voice of the two's favorite singer shouted as he ran onto the stage, "You all ready to rock?!"
They shouted along with the rest of the crowd, getting big grins on their faces. They sang along with the first few songs, watching the singers and moshers do their things. Eventually, the crowd started to get rough though, a little too rough for Ciel's liking...
Ciel separated from the taller male at some point, and was left alone in the middle of the crowd. There were so many people, but he felt alone and afraid. He began to make his way towards the door, but he was stopped by a rather tall man with long, red hair, "Hey kid." He smirked, looking down at him with blue eyes, "You seem lost."
He nodded a little in response, looking around for an escape route out of this conversation. It never appeared though, "What do you need help with?" He felt a hand run up his thigh, making him take a step forward and accidentally run into the redhead.
"S-somethings touching m-me..." He mumbled nervously to nobody in particular as the hand quickly returned, groping him and rubbing his crotch under his skirt. He trembled as it went in his underwear and stroked him, and he sacredly looked for somewhere to rub, but every place he looked there were so many people it'd take too much time.
The taller male grinned and held the boy by the arm, his free hand running up his shirt, "Yeah, so? You're a cute girl, you know..." The sensation made the teen gasp as he felt gloved hands play with his nipple.
Ciel whimpered weakly, seeing Sebastian behind the redhead from a distance. He was too far for him to yell and hear, but close enough o be visible if he'd just look over...
Luckily, the older male did indeed look straight at him. Sebastian walked over as quickly as he could, and snatched the young boy away from the two mysterious pedophiles, "Don't you dare touch her again!" He held the young cross dresser close to him, making Ciel's face light up pink.
"Hmph," The male pouted, nodding to the now visible silver haired man that was touching him from behind, "Let's go find someone else to play with then, Undie." They strode off with irritated faces, glancing back and grinning at each other. It made them both slightly weak to the knees as they remembered them as teachers from school.
"Sebastian..." Ciel said with a weak voice, "L-let's go home...Or at least out o-of here..." Sebastian walked out without a single word, carrying the boy out of the door and avoiding other possible molesters. He sat the younger teen down once they were outside, and they made their way down the now empty city streets. Minus a few cars, lit up street lamps, and a few building windows, the walk was dark and chilly. There was a light sprinkle of rain, giving the air a musty scent.
"Sebastian..." The boy spoke in a soft tone, "Thanks for helping me back there." He whispered to himself the next words, "I hope they don't expose my secret..."
Unfortunately, the older teen heard him, "What secret?" He looked at Ciel curiously hand put his hand on the bluenette's, lacing their fingers together. Ciel blushed, looking down at his feet as they walked and going silent. After a moment, he lifted the boy's chin with his free hand so they met eyes and stopped moving, "Please tell me. You know you can trust me with anything."
"I can't." He whispered, eyes tearing up a little, "I just can't...I'm not ready to tell you." With those words said, the senior sighed and let go of the boy. They walked the rest of the way to a nearby park in silence.
The area was eerie. The two swings attached to the rusting red metal bars were slowly swaying with the breeze, and the slide made noises as the soft raindrops bounced off the old metallic seat. Trash littered the ground, as did a few old dolls and jewelry that people had lost many years ago.
Ciel took a seat on a swing, Sebastian on the other. The black-haired male kept staring at the other, who was looking at the ground nervously, "Ciel, look at me." His voice quivered, "I feel like I've done something wrong..."
"You left me alone to be molested!" He shouted, looking at the senior with tears streaming down his cheeks, "Who knows what they could do to me, they're both my teachers. They know things..." He looked back down at the ground and shook his head once, "They could blackmail me into sex, hell if they decide to use this against me, they'll have their own personal slave."
He shook his head and stood, pulling him off the swing and making them meet eyes once again, "That will not happen. I won't let it." He took a few steps closer until they were, again, only centimeters apart. He whispered softly, "I care about you too much to let them hurt you again..."
The rain began to pour down a bit more, hiding the boy's tears and quickly soaking them to the bone. They stared at each other for what felt like ages, and then awkwardly split apart, "Well...That was awkward..." Ciel mumbled, causing them both to laugh a little. There's no way he could like Sebastian! They're both men, after all. Even if the other thought he was a girl, he couldn't risk their friendship.
"We should be getting home, yes?" He looked at the older male, who nodded and they began walking in the direction to Sebastian's house. It was a rather quiet walk as they strode side by side, hand in hand. The rain seemed to quickly lighten up; then again, they did live in one of those bipolar weather places.
As they walked up to the large apartment building Sebastian lived in, they turned to face each other to say their goodbyes. It was different though; a bit more awkward then it usually was for them. It felt as if there was some sort of magnet pulling them to stall time to be together.
"Well, I guess I'll be going..." The male mumbled, looking at the bluenette. It seemed as if he was missing something, he should do something but he wasn't sure what yet.
Ciel nodded, clearly having the same feeling, "I'll see you tomorrow then..." He slowly walked away, leaving Sebastian to his own thoughts.
Well, I'm back! What did you guys think? I haven't wrote to much in a while, so please do review on what you thought.
