~His Butler, Heartbroken Chapter Three~

-William POV-

It was around 5 in the morning when I woke up again. I sighed, sitting up to put on my glasses. I looked over at the red mess that was Grell, passed out beside me. I knew that I shouldn't be surprised that he showed up with the Phantomhive boy; Grell had always been fond of children. But then, for some reason, he was attached to the young Earl. I rubbed my temples, as it was just too confusing for me. But after being with Grell for nearly two years, I decided it wasn't a good idea to question him.

After getting dressed, I decided to check on the young boy. I walked into the guest bedroom, where he was asleep on the spare bed. I took out the first aid kit from the adjoining bathroom and began to undress the bandages around his forearms. I was surprised to see that a great deal of cuts had already healed, but I decided to redress them anyway with some new bandages anyway. I decided to check his temperature and pulse; he was alright. Examining him, he appeared to be a bit underweight and dehydrated, which lead me to believe that either his demon had left him or something else had happened. I sighed, gathering the boy's shirt and jacket in hopes of getting the blood out of them. I took a quick glance at Ciel before walking out to wake up Grell and make breakfast.

-Ciel POV-

After passing out, all I felt was darkness. It was like I was in a numbed state of mind. I couldn't move, see, hear, or even think. After a while, I was finally able to open my eyes and blink. Everything was blurry, but I was able to identify the grey color on what appeared to be walls. I tried to move, but sharp, jagged pains ran up my arms, so I stayed where I was. I pondered the thought as to where I was. For half a second, I wondered when Sebastian was coming to get me, but then…the painful memories of the past week came flooding back to me. Sebastian was never coming back. He won't be here to protect me. I'm alone…

I closed my eyes, trying to push out the pain before I heard someone walk into the room.

"Oh, Ciel's awake!" said the very familiar, very annoying voice, making me instantly recognize the high-pitched, girlish voice: It was Grell. Then I heard another voice.

"Grell, please do not traumatize him," said the practically emotionless voice. Yes, that was William. He walked up to the nightstand beside me.
"Here" he said, helping me into a sitting position.
I looked up at him, confused. Why would he help me?
"We got you food!" Grell said cheerfully.

The moment he said that my stomach started growling. I remembered Sebastian telling me that newborn demons still have to eat mundane food, but more that the usual human eats; though I haven't been eating since he left.
Then William set a tray full of food on my lap. I tried to eat myself, of course.
But I was too weak and the pains in my arms stopped me. After a bit William helped me eat. For once, I didn't protest to having someone help me.
After laying back down, I looked up at Grell and William. "Why, why are you helping me?" I asked weakly.
"There doesn't have to be a reason. Besides, you're our guest..." William said.
I thought he said something else, but I blacked, slipping into darkness once again.
