Chapter 4
Sebastian woke up to the smell of fresh pastries filling the room, his mind clouded, hazy from the long day he had to endure the day before but very glad with the overall outcome. Sebastian stirred as he inhaled the familiar aroma of pastries.
"Sebastian, wake up. I have a surprise for you." Sebastian began to open his eyes and through his blurred vision he saw an older male with short, dark brown hair, crimson-brown orbs, and an all too familiar smile.
"Jason...?" Sebastian asked sleepily, his voice groggy and overwhelmed with emotion. 'It couldn't be' Sebastian thought as his desperation and despair could clearly be heard in his voice. The figure above him frowned as a look of confusion and worry spread quickly across his face.
"Are you ok Sebastian?" Ciel sat down beside him, putting his hand on his chest.
"I... How..." Sebastian asked as he propped himself up trying desperately to focus in on the person before him. Once he was fully seated up he put his hand to his head. "Ciel?..." he said as the room finally came in more clearly. He turned to face Ciel and seen the worried expression on his face. He pulled the younger male closer to his chest and embraced him in a brief hug.
Ciel returned the hug and gave a smile. "Are you OK " he asked while he ran his hand up and down Sebastian's arm. Ciel could see the distress on the older males face and it hurt his heart to see his boyfriend in such a state. All he wanted to do was wipe away all the stuff that caused Sebastian pain. But for now he knew that all he could do was be there for the older male.
Sebastian shifted on the bed and brought Ciel to sit in his lap. He put his chin into the crook of the younger male's neck, as his arms wound around his waist. "I'm fine now, just a bad dream." Sebastian said in a soft voice.
"What was the dream of?" Ciel said as Sebastian pressed a soft kiss to the side of his neck. Ciel gave a low hum at the affection as he waited for the older male's reply.
Sebastian looked over into Ciel's big royal blue eyes and smiled. Ciel could tell that the smile was just a front to hide the terror in his eyes. It was as if Sebastian was trying to convince himself as well as Ciel that he was OK "I dreamt of Jason…." He said in a whisper it was a wonder Ciel had heard him. "I was dreaming that he was still alive, and with me, and that everything was OK but then the dream took a turn and he was on fire. The next thing I know I'm being woken up….. I thought I saw him, but as the room went into focus I noticed it was just a figment of my imagination." He sighed as he lied back down on the bed, bringing Ciel with him.
"I'm sorry….. Is there anything I can do to make you feel better?" Ciel said as he looked into Sebastian's crimson colored eyes. He shifted forward and pressed a tender kiss to the tempting mouth before him.
Sebastian submitted to the kiss, as he held Ciel closer to his chest. "Hmm… you're helping me already." Sebastian said as he brought Ciel's head down for another kiss. Sebastian's eyes lowered seductively as he pressed lightly against Ciel's body, encouraging him to lie back upon the bed. Ciel happily obliged as he let himself be guided by the gentle command of his lovers touch. The older male laced his fingers through Ciel's soft black hair, deepening the kiss and guiding the younger male's head down until he could feel the blankets outline his body comfortably. It felt as if he were whisked down onto a cloud, his eyes set on the older male before him in a dreamy daze. Sebastian broke the kiss slowly and lost himself in the Oceanic blue orbs before him, breathing heavily trying desperately to control the urge to take Ciel over completely.
"Sebastian…" Ciel gasped as his eyes bore into breathtaking red, Ciel was needless to say, mesmerized by the events unfolding before him.
A small tremor erupted within Sebastian's body, surging through him like an electric pulse. Sebastian gripped Ciel's hair and pressed himself upon Ciel as he lifted the blue eyed boy's head up in favor of tasting that sweet mouth once more, but this time he locked his lips with Ciel's fiercely, a passionate kiss ensuing in such a way that it just felt utterly mind blowing. Sebastian let his free hand roam Ciel's clothed sides lightly sending chills down Ciel's spine in the process, the older male's sense of reason all but left him as he indulged himself in this moment. Sebastian couldn't seem to help himself at this point as his gentle caresses began to go southward upon Ciel's body, where if he had had his sense of reason would have never attempted to go, not for a while at least. The older male slowly made his way to Ciel's waist, tracing light circles with his fingers letting it then hover above Ciel's waist line and made a move to grip it and pull it down but as he made the move to do so Sebastian's phone began to vibrate on the dresser top snapping the two out of their euphoric state.
Sebastian's gaze turned toward the dresser; his body staying in the same position before turning back his gaze to look at his hand, which slightly trembled with the adrenaline that had surged through him as his hand stayed suspended hovering above Ciel's pants. Sebastian realizing his actions and what he was about to do moved his hand and put it off to the side of Ciel's body. Touching the covers below before blinking a few times, eyes slightly widened; he bit his lower lip in frustration wanting desperately to continue but realizing within him that the time wasn't right, not just yet, no matter how badly he wanted it. Sebastian rose from the bed but as he did so Ciel grabbed his wrist and gave Sebastian a pleading, pouty look. "Ignore it…" Ciel said locking eyes with the conflicted older male.
"I… I'm sorry but I have to take this call…" Sebastian managed to say despite himself.
Ciel eased up on his grip, as a sad tug of his lips indicated his disappointment, that and the lowering of his eyes; he looked down sadly; avoiding Sebastian's gaze. Sebastian leaned down and kissed Ciel's cheek "I'm sorry Ciel… I really want to continue, I really do but I can't…"
Ciel looked up at Sebastian with a small sparkle of happiness, his eyes' still interlaced with disappointment, but he forced a small smile across his lips before giving a slight nod in understanding.
Sebastian smiled back as he made his way to the dresser just in time to catch it mid fall as it vibrated off of the dresser top, he viewed the caller ID and answered it. "Yes?" Sebastian asked as he waited for a reply.
"Uh… Yeah… Hey boss, everything is goin' pretty good here so far, but uh we kinda need you to give us that phone number and the address of that Agni guy we were supposed to pick up the imported spices from… We kinda… misplaced the order form..." Bard said nervously afraid of his boss' reaction.
Sebastian face palmed and sighed in response "You idiot you don't need the order form, all it's used for is matching the spices; he should've already brought it by, but I'll print off an extra copy for filing purposes." Sebastian turned his head back toward Ciel and whispered an apologetic "Sorry."
"Eh-eh… Well… About that… You see, we um… Missed the drop off…" Bard said cowering away from the phone at this point.
"What?!" Sebastian said dangerously as his eye began to twitch in irritation. "You have got to be kidding me, I gave you one simple instruction to pick up the order, and you can't even do that!" Sebastian said as he sighed once more in frustration. To make matters worse Sebastian could clearly hear the disorganization going on in the background with the others on Bard's line.
"Yeah, I… I'm very sorry boss… But, uh, once you resend us the order form we will have it in no ti- wait Mey-rin don't touch that! Um boss I'll call you back later I have to go take care of something."
"Alright, well I guess I'll fax you guys the order; while I'm out. Seeing as how this needs to get done before the end of the day." Sebastian said as he looked at the clock on his dresser to see what time it was.
"Thanks boss! Bye! - Shit, Mey-rin you need to be more careful!" Bard said to Mey-rin before realizing that Sebastian had been on the phone to hear that last bit.
Sebastian just shook his head in light of the situation and, gave a small chuckle trying not to let his frustration get the better of him. Then Sebastian walked back over to the side of the bed, and sat down next to Ciel, who was lying still on the bed. His chest was moving up and down he appeared to be in more a relaxed state.
Sebastian moved closer to Ciel and put his arm over the front of Ciel's waist. Ciel opened his eyes and stared into the pair of eyes before him "what's the matter?" Ciel said as he ran his hand up and down the side of the older males arm.
"Nothing; just have to fax some papers over to my office at the restaurant." Sebastian leaned down and gave Ciel a small peck on the lips before he stood up and walked into the bathroom.
Ciel sat up further on his bed as he watched Sebastian. "I heard bards voice he sounded nervous." Ciel stated while he got up and walked to his closet.
"He was; he missed the spices' drop off and now I have to go pick it up." Sebastian said as he finished fixing his hair and clothes. "Do you want to go with me?" Sebastian asked as he walked over to the bed. He started to strip the sheets and put new ones on.
Ciel finished getting ready and walked over to Sebastian. "Are you sure you're not too busy?" Ciel asked he didn't want to distract the man when there was stuff that needed to be done.
Sebastian grabbed Ciel's hand and pulled him closer wrapping his arm around his waist. "I'm sure; and I could use the company, it's a long drive to the shop that keeps all of the spices."
Ciel looked up and smiled "OK I'll go with you." He leaned up on his tippy toes and gave a brief kiss to the older male's mouth.
Sebastian smiled down at Ciel and laced their fingers together as he walked to the front of the house to get his jacket and keys. Ciel did the same and they both walked out of the house. Ciel locked the door behind him and then followed Sebastian out to the car.
Ciel looked out the window as they drove out into the countryside, passing little valleys of grasses, flowers, animals, mountains, and eventually farmland and rock. Songs played on the radio, one after another as they got closer to their destination. Ciel turned his head to look at Sebastian and smiled when he saw the wind coming through the driver's side window carrying delicate jet black locks of the older males face lightly, he looked so handsome and this whole scene seemed to accentuate his flawless face and gorgeous crimson red eyes, brightening his features immensely under the sun's golden rays that peered through the window outlining his face like some sort of halo.
That content, happy face of Sebastian's was just irresistible. Ciel nearly tuned out everything around him at this point until one particular song chimed in during his little admiration session and caught his attention. This song seemed to only intensify and display how he was feeling about the man beside him that he couldn't help but to find himself singing in sync with the radio, hitting every note perfectly and adding his own self and personality to the song, sincerity pouring from every fiber of his being as he passionately sang this tune to the older male not fully realizing that he was unbeknownst to himself confessing his innermost feelings to Sebastian through song.
"Words nothing but words for me to show how much my love for you unfolds through trouble and fears this love feels so real, and I need you to know…" Sebastian eyes slightly widened in astonishment, he figured Ciel would be good at singing but he never guessed he would be this good.
"Wow… Ciel, you're amazing!" Sebastian said almost speechless, a smile forming upon his lips as he indulged in the younger male's beautiful voice. He had a hard time keeping his eyes solely on the road; needless to say Ciel was a huge yet wonderful distraction. Something about what he was singing and how he was singing sounded as if it was speaking to him and filled him with joy even though his focus on the road caused him to not be able to analyze every word Ciel said he still took in bits and pieces of it, and felt very flattered and happy as if he knew and related to the whole song without it truly sinking in completely to his conscious mind.
Sebastian thought to himself as Ciel continued his beautiful singing. Suddenly Sebastian's smile broadened as he saw something that had caught his interest and took a detour.
"My love is here for y-" Ciel was cut off at the very last word of the song and his eyes widened as soft, supple lips clashed with his sweetly. It took Ciel a moment to realize that they had stopped and the scenery had changed. There was a beautiful grove that had many flowers, grasses, trees and vines that were a healthy lush of green and if you peered further you could see a make shift pathway leading to somewhere. Ciel however only gave the scene a mere glance before closing his eyes and indulging in the kiss but as soon as he did Sebastian stopped the kiss and smiled at the now pouting boy.
Sebastian hurriedly got out of the car and opened Ciel's door and gave him a sweet smile, his eyes lowered in admiration and love for the male. "C'mon, I want to show you around." Sebastian said as he held out his hand for Ciel to take.
Ciel blinked his mouth slightly agape before accepting the hand before him. "Oh… okay." Ciel said as he climbed out of the car and joined Sebastian's side. Sebastian swiftly and gently grabbed Ciel's hand and intertwined his fingers with the blue eyed boy and walked in front of him for a moment looking for a specific pathway once he found the right one he started to walk in sync with Ciel. Ciel smiled as he looked at his surroundings, taking in the fresh smells of the outside and its sweet plant life. He had been so enthralled with his surroundings that he did not really pay attention to where Sebastian was taking him. By the time he realized he was walking into a cave he had already managed to trip over a rock that had stood in his path.
"Ah!" Ciel yelped as he lost his footing.
"Ciel!" Sebastian exclaimed as he swiftly caught the younger male in his arms, embracing him. "Are you alright?" Sebastian asked Ciel softly.
Ciel looked up at the older male; his eyes wide open in awe. "Y-yeah I'm alright…" Ciel said blushing a little bit before composing himself.
"Good." Sebastian said relieved as he pulled the younger male into a warm embrace, holding him there for a minute, bodies pressed together firmly. Ciel blushed in response as he wrapped his arms around Sebastian's gently released Ciel, giving him a small smile before grabbing Ciel's hand and tugging lightly to indicate his wish to go further answered his silent question and nodded a yes to the older male as he began to follow Sebastian deeper into the cave.
Only a minute had passed as they reached the depth of the cave and before Ciel knew it he was surrounded by thousands of brilliant tiny glowing lights resembling stars. The young male's eyes widened as he wandered about aimlessly turning around to view the glowing cave stars in its entirety. "Wow… This is amazing!" Ciel whispered, awestruck. It took a while for Ciel to notice that he had lost Sebastian but once he had, he looked all about the cave for the older male. "Sebastian? Where-?" Barely a few seconds had passed since Ciel had started to look for Sebastian before a warm presence could be sensed behind the younger male. Ciel felt heated air on the back of his neck, and warm gentle hands grazing his sides before they twirled him around delicately to face the gentle presence. The moment he faced the older male he felt delicate fingers shifting through his midnight locks, the other arm wrapped around Ciel's waist. Passionate soft lips locked with his own; in a mind blowing, yet heated kiss.
Sebastian guided the young male to the cave's floor in a spot that felt surprisingly smooth and comfortable, Sebastian, never letting go of Ciel's head as it stayed propped up, continuing the kiss. After three or four minutes of making out, and feeling each other's sides Sebastian began to lick and kiss Ciel's neck. Both of them too caught up in the moment to know how much time they had spent in the cave. Sebastian ended the kiss, and with a husky tone leaned in to whisper in Ciel's ear. "I love you."
