In the morning Ciel awoke with a less than firm grip of reality. He knew where he was.. He knew where he was. He knew what he was doing there. However, he couldnt quite grasp that it was really SEBASTIAN that was doing this to him. The man hed known for years. He knew the contract was up. He knew Sebastian desired his soul. What he hadnt planned on was Sebastians means of taking it. He never had thought for a second that Sebastian would make a game out of it.
Surely Sebastian was evil, he was a demon after all.. But surely he couldnt be THAT cruel.. Hed promissed Ciel that if hed won Sebastian would allow him to be free. Ciels pain... Thats what made Sebastian hungry.. Maby the game was a way of enticing Sebastian to eat.. Maby he had touble killing people he spent so much time with.. Huh! What a foolish idea, a demon with a conscience...
Ciel heard the doors open. The silent footsteps could only suggest one thing. It was Sebastian. The click of the door to Ciels cage.
"Ciel its time to wake up." Sebastian smirked as the boy groggily looked up.
"Please not yet Sebastian... im not awake enough yet.." the demon laughed light heartedly.
"Oh goodness no! You havent even had breakfast yet! Id never allow you to play a game of whits without being properly nourished! I was just coming to see if youd like to come have breakfast with me."
"Oh...yes.. I suppose that would be alright..." Sebastian chuckled. Clearely he was amused by Ciels reaction.
"You may want to get dressed first.." He nodded to Ciels night shirt..
"Yes..." Sebastian smiled and left to let Ciel dress himself...
"Good god why do there need to be so many damn buttons." Ciel muttered. He was beyond frustration trying to get them undone. He imagined how swiftly and gently his ex butler had done this.. His hands were so warm... yet soft.. Delicate.. He quickly dropped all of that ridiculous nonsense as he remembered Sebastians hands the night he had decided the contract was fufilled. They werent gental or delicate.. they were like barbed wire..but laced with poison.. It wasnt so much the true pain that hurt Ciel Phantomhive. Hed whitnessed pain much worse that day he was left on the alter to die... What hurt was that it was Sebastian who caused it.. He had put so much trust in this man. For years. Everyday he had told himself Sebastian was the one person who would never hurt him. His heart stung a little for a moment.. He couldnt imagine why Sebastian would to something like this to him..
