Chapter 3: Possessive Passion

Sebastian threaded his way through the crowds, his arm wrapped jealously around his Little One's shoulders. He glared at everyone around them, hating how the others all stared at Ciel eagerly, almost, expectantly. One boy, braver than the others, with blond hair and blue eyes, basically attacked Ciel, wrapping the smaller boy into a hug that was too suggestive for anyone's liking, the boy grinding on Ciel's nether regions.

"Oh, you're so naughty you little fag, I bet you like being man handled, eh whore?" Said the man, Aleister Chamber, if memory served. Sebastian growled and went to throw the man off of his Precious Little One.

"Get your hands-" He was cut off by Ciel's voice.

"Sebastian, remove this filth from my person." Ciel snapped, his hands clenched in fists, he looked ready to retch. Sebastian smirked, pleased with this reaction, and took a menacing step toward the disgusting blond.

"H-hey! Calm down! It was just a joke." He protested but soon enough Sebastian held the blond by his neck and shoved him, none too gently, into the wall, the plaster cracking angrily, as if feeling violated by the perverted blond.

The duo made their way back to the dorm rooms, Ciel's sudden urge for a bath quickening their pace. As soon as Ciel was in his room he rushed to the shower yelling to his compain to make himself at home.

Sebastian lounged on the couch, laying down, his eyes closed peacefully. He blocked out all images of the sick blond touching what belonged to him and him alone. Sebastian was never one to share with anyone.

Ciel scrubbed his body raw to get rid of the feeling of those hands on his body, those filthy, disgusting hands. If it hadn't been for Sebastian god only knows what might have happened, he silently thanked whoever was listening for his companion.

Sebastian dozed off slowly, his heavy lids dropping until he gave in and slipped off to dream land.

Ciel stepped out of his bathroom, clad in shorts and a 'Smashing Pumpkins' Tee Shirt. He chuckled softly when he saw his companion fast asleep, he grabbed a couple of blankets and covered the older male with them softly. As he turned to leave a hand caught his and tugged him down so that he laid down on Sebastian's chest, his neck exposed to the older male.

Sebastian nipped his Little One's neck possessively "Mine." He growled out, his arms tightening protectively around the smaller male's waist, one hand covering them both with the blankets. Sebastian was still half asleep and didn't really think about what he was doing, letting his instincts and desires guide him rather than his common sense. Ciel breathed shakily but let himself relax into Sebastian's embrace, the warmth of the Crimson eyed man comforting after that disgusting Viscount Druitt had touched him. The blue eyed male sighed happily and drifted off to sleep, feeling safe in his companion's arms.

Sebastian was the first to wake up and looked down at the top of his Little One's head, a slow smile spreading on his face as he realized that his Little One did not reject him and was even comfortable enough to sleep in his arms. He stroked the blue locks of the boy in his arms thoughtfully, his crimson eyes staring off into space as he thought about making some food. He glanced over at the clock, 8:15, class started at 9:30 so they had plenty of time. Sebastian placed his Little One on the couch, the blankets pulled up to the boy's chin, and got started on breafast as quietly as he could.

Ciel yawned contentedly, having the first night of decent, nightmare free sleep in many years. He watched Sebastian for a moment and realized that it was all thanks to him that he didn't dream of that horrible day. He stood up and meandered over to the kitchen.

"Good morning Little One, breakfast is almost ready, you can take a seat at the table." Sebastian spoke, surprising Ciel.

"A- alright." The blue eyed boy sat down and his uncovered eye widened as Sebastian placed the feast before him.

"For today we have apple cinnamon pancakes with fresh strawberries and chocolate shavings on top paired with toast with margarine and Earl Grey Tea made with honey rather than sugar." Sebastian chuckled watching his Little One's face brighten to a full blown smile, the first he'd ever seen on the boy's face.

"Are you a mind reader? How is it you know how to prepare my favorite tea and make a breakfast that has my mouth watering just looking at it?" Ciel questioned before eating happily taking sips of the perfect tea between mouthfuls.

"I am simply one hell of a butler." Sebastian joked, referring to Ciel's earlier comments. He ate slowly and savored each bite. "You better get dressed little one, class starts in thirty minutes. I'll be back in ten so we can leave." Sebastian said, making his way to the door, Ciel waved his understanding and continued eating.

Ten minutes later Sebastian opened the door to Ciel's room watching his Little One flit about the living room pulled on his shoes, a piece of toast hanging from his mouth. Sebastian chuckled and held the door open as his Little One rushed past him with a call of 'Hurry we're going to be late.' trailing behind him.

Lunched rolled around but instead of walking to the cafeteria Sebastian lead them to the parking lot, Ciel in tow.

"Where are we going Sebastian?" The younger questioned, curiosity coloring his tone.

"Well Little One, since I didn't have time to prepare lunch and school food is positively grotesque, I thought you might join me for lunch at a little bistro not far from here, a place called Palazzo d'amore."

Sebastian opened the passenger door to his black Bentley Continental GTS for Ciel before climbing in himself.

"What's it like?" Ciel asked, watching the street and scenery go by.

"It's a nice place, Italian themed, lots of sweets, and the food is sinfully delicious. They have this mezza luna ravioli that is to die for!" Sebastian couldn't keep the blush from his face as the thought of the delicious food entered his mind.

"Hmm, to die for you say? Interesting, I wish to try this Mezza Luna Ravioli." Ciel claimed in his haughty tone, his own painful memories surfacing of his parents, then of his 'mother', his aunt Anne that used to give him wine once in a while, she died very recently and the pain made Ciel cold to others, his uncle, Undertaker, may have been the one to raise him but he was still close to his aunt.

"As you wish Little One." Sebastian a small frown on his face sensing that Ciel was in pain and he wanted nothing more than to banish that pain.

The pair ate silently, Ciel lost in his thoughts while Sebastian tried to think of a way to make Ciel feel better, suddenly an idea popped into his head and he grinned wickedly, a glint in his eyes that went unnoticed by the other boy.
