That night, Sebastian popped in Ciel's bedroom to check on him. Once again, he placed his hand on the boy's brow and was relieved to find that his fever had broken. Ciel stirred at this gesture.

"I keep waking you up. I apologize," Sebastian said with a bow. Ciel yawned.

"I don't mind. The company is nice," he returned sleepily. "Come sit by me?"

Sebastian came closer and sat near the boy.

"How are you feeling?"

"Much better. Thanks to you," Ciel admitted with a small smile.

"I'm very pleased to hear that, and not thanks needed. I am your butler after all," was the kind reply.

"Sebastian?"

"Yes, master?"

"Will you stay here with me tonight? All night? In…my bed?"

Sebastian couldn't keep from chuckling, a sound which was unfamiliar to Ciel. He liked the sound immensely. "Whatever you wish, master."

"Ciel."

"Hmm?"

"Call me Ciel."

"As you wish…Ciel." The words rolled off the demon's tongue like music, and Ciel

"I'm hungry," Ciel murmured.

"Would you like me to make you something? I'll make anything you want."

"No, that's not it. I-I mean hungry for…"

"Yes?"

"Hungry for…you." Ciel said the last word so quickly that Sebastian almost didn't catch it.

"Oh…I see." Ciel could hear the smile in the man's voice without looking at him.

"I too am hungry," he growled.

This quite alarmed Ciel. "For…my soul?" he said quietly.

Sebastian laughed. "No. I don't want your soul."

"Really? But-mmm…" this time it was Ciel who was cut off by Sebastian's kiss.

Sebastian could not hold himself back anymore. There was a thirst in him that only Ciel and Ciel alone could slake. He pushed his charge back onto his pillow firmly but not enough to hurt him.

"Mmpf. Sebast-ahhh!" Ciel cried out in surprise as Sebastian began to lick along his jawline. He writhed in pleasure, but Sebastian held him in place. His heart began to pound as he thought about what else Sebastian might do.

As if reading his mind, Sebastian put his hand up Ciel's night shirt onto his smooth chest, feeling his pounding heart. I used to want to eat this muscle, he thought to himself. Now I just want to capture it. I want it to beat only for me. With that in mind, he pulled up Ciel's shirt and sucked on the boy's nipples. A wave of excitement and satisfaction went through him as the boy softly moaned.

"Sebastian. Oh!" Ciel panted, caught up in the mix of cold air and Sebastian's warm tongue against his flesh.

But the demon was just getting started. He kissed Ciel's face over and over, while his hand trailed down until he reached the hard bulge between the boy's thighs. He caressed it gently before stopping abruptly. Ciel caught his breath at this momentary pause, but he gasped again when he felt what came next.

Sebastian had gone down on Ciel, flicking his tongue up and down, back and forth against the boy's erection. He then began sucking it, and he could tell that Ciel was in a state of pure bliss: his eyes were closed and his mouth slightly parted, expecting to moan again.

Just as before, Ciel's back arched as he released, this time into his butler's mouth. Sebastian lapped it up as if it were the most delicious substance he had ever tasted. In fact, it was the most delicious thing he'd ever tasted.

Sebastian figured Ciel would be tired, but as soon as he caught his breath again, he pulled the man on top of him again and looked at him longingly.

"Master-Ciel-what is it?"

"I want more."

Sebastian smiled. "As you wish." He removed both of his gloves and took of each layer of clothing. Ciel watched in wonder. The only time he'd ever seen any bare skin on Sebastian was if his suit had been torn because of an injury.

"Ready?"

Ciel nodded, but he hesitated parting his knees, blushing again. He caught a glimpse of Sebastian's naked form and realized that he was huge. He was afraid that the demon would tear him.

"I'll be gentle," he assured the boy in a loving voice. "After all, I could never hurt the only one I love." The words surprised both him and Ciel, but they were true.

"You love me?" Ciel murmured in wonder.

"I do," was the simple reply.

"I love you too," Ciel said softly. "And I trust you." He let Sebastian in between his legs and tried to prepare himself.

Sebastian leaned down and kissed his lover's forehead, nose, and then his stomach before thrusting himself in as gently as he could.

"Ah!" Ciel felt a dull ache, but the ache soon turned into a warm and inviting feeling.

Sebastian went in and out slowly at first, kissing Ciel every now again. With every thrust, Ciel let out a soft "ah," which pleased the demon very much. He couldn't wait any longer. With a final kiss on Ciel's nose, he thrust fast and hard, shaking both Ciel and the bed. The gentle "ahs" turned into louder ones, and Sebastian finally released into the boy with a satisfied grunt. A second later, Ciel sighed happily.

"Sebastian?"

"Yes?"

"You truly are one hell of a butler."

He chuckled. "And you, my dear Ciel, are one hell of a lover."

With that, the two curled into each other, warming each other despite the harsh weather that still raged outside.
