Song: Victims of Love by Good Charlotte

Sebastian looked at his young master, sitting so quietly in the rickety boat he had used to journey in to defeat that last enemy of his charge.

His life was playing around him, and it was rather disconcerting how Sebastian knew how he was…well, in short time, he would fulfill that contract made from those years ago.

But he did warn his master in the beginning: you play with fire, it's going to burn you.

But when he thought upon it, he knew it was rather remarkable: the boy with the slyly white soul knew it would happen, and he did more than play with the fire: he danced with it- flickered back and forth with the ruby flame that taunted him, seared him, trained him to become what he had become.

Still, that boy had came back for more- after all, he wanted to win that most interesting game of " chess" as he so called it. the queen was defeated…in more ways than one.

So, he had won that game.

But when he saw the look of serenity on the boys face compared to the one of deadly concentration when he was playing the game of life- on a mere whim, he seriously considered which he liked best, and well- he found he couldn't decide which he liked more, to his surprise.

Ridiculous. He was a demon, and he had no use for such...sentimentality. Especially not for a mere human boy of thirteen. He was food, nothing else. Well, perhaps something to be toyed with, but nothing could have gained any affections.

Well…no. Sebastian had to reconsider it. The boy was like a demon in his own right, sharp and keen. Not to mention he had a deviousness that was entirely his own, toying with his fiancé, the queen, and indeed, Sebastian himself. As a demon, he had to admit that it attracted him.

Hmmm. Too bad he was going to eat the boy in short order.

All of a sudden, Ciel turned towards him; The demon was monmentarially shocked to see a smile on the boy's face. but what a smile it was; it was slow, sly and vicious. " Sebastian…" he said in a low, seductive voice.

Sebastian didn't know what to think. Had his master been possessed or something similar? Did he hit his head too hard in the water?

Then, his mind went blank.

You see, his very own master had stood up to kiss him on the lips; as if he would if he swallowed his soul.

Then, the namesake of the sky had drawn back, a satisfied smirk on his lips.

"…why…?" Sebastian asked, still in shock.

" Because I'm about to die, I might as well do something I probably won't regret." He said casually, as if he was talking about the weather. " and besides, I fell in love with you." He chuckled. " whoever said that love was holy was an idiot, by the way. Nothing farther from the truth…"

Silence existed between them for long, long minutes.

" Remember when you said to not play with fire, Sebastian?"

" yes, young master."

" I should return the favor; don't play with water or it might drown you…"

Sebastian blinked, then a slow, Cheshire cat smirk lifted up his lips. " yes…my lord."

Oh, but this was a curse…Sebastian suddenly realized with a regretful start.

They were, in fact…

Both victims of that odd factor named love.

Sebastian's smirk turned upside down. " oh no."

And now that he realized that, he had fallen in love with his prey, as a falcon would fall in love with a rabbit…

This was not good.

BAB: -sigh- Augh. the twelveth episode has me really getting kind of pissed and frustrated, so...expect more drabbles. and this particular one is faintly related to the Dancing with the Devil AU oneshot. note the faintly, by the way.

this AU is what could have happened during the first season and Ciel was about to die-but-didn't- and he was still on that boat thing. ( Personally I thought that the second season was just kind of F-ed up...)So yay, more lurvely Seb/Ciel.

I do not own Victims of Love, nor do I own anything related to Kuroshitsuji except some fanfics. and one-shots. and a few other stuff.
