Well here was a quick update! For some reason I just had the urge to continue so here's a little treat for you lucky people. :D Again and as always thanks to those who reviewed. :)

"Ciel?" said boy turned at his name. He knew that voice.

"Alois." the way he said the others name made the blonde visibly flinch. It was dripping with dislike. Then, on second thought, as Ciel looked again, he noticed that Alois was different. His posture was shameful as he was slightly curled in on himself, arms wrapped securely around him. It wasn't just that though. His hair was disheveled and his eyes, those eyes that had yesterday been so bright and full of mischief were now dull and wary.

"Well what do you want?" Ciel was growing impatient as he had yet to find a solution to his current problem.

"Well...I was just on my way to school and I noticed you were just sitting here."

"So?"

"Well...why?" the dark haired boy sighed as it seemed he would not be rid of the other child that easily. He may be a little off, but he still had that annoying curiosity about him.

"I skipped school."

"Why?" Ciel gave the boy a dirty look. That seemed to work for Alois shut up, instead choosing to sit on the curb next to him. Alois sat in silence looking Ciel over. He seemed...flustered. It was obvious he didn't want to go to school and neither did he, so maybe...

"Hey...Ciel"

"What?"

"If you want, I have a place we can go. No one will find you there." Ciel stared in confusion. Here he was sitting with the very boy that had yesterday nearly drove him insane and now he was offering his help? What was he playing at? Still the offer was tempting. If he did go with him then he wouldn't have to worry about Sebastian if he came looking for him. On the other hand, the person he would be going with was definitely not his favorite.

"...Fine."

Ciel had been following Alois now for a good twenty minutes. When he had agreed to follow him Alois wasted no time in grabbing his hand and dragging him off in the direction he had came. He was dragged back through the neighborhood and into a remote patch of forest that lay on the outskirts of it, separating the upper class from the lower. Now though, he followed casually behind the blonde as he moved swiftly through the intricate maze of trees and shrubs. He seemed to know where he was going, but Ciel still wasn't sure he could trust him.

"Are we there yet?"

"Almost. It's a really good hiding spot, I promise." It must be to be this far away. He thought, still annoyed.

"Here." Alois beamed at Ciel as he stepped aside. In front of them was a small hut. The windows were dusty and a few boarded, but other than that it looked relatively normal. Without permission Ciel walked up to the door and pushed it open. It creaked with the effort and a small amount of dust sprinkled on top of his head. It was dark inside and Ciel found that, along with the dust, the air was heavy and stale, making it increasingly hard to breathe.

"Don't you ever clean this place?" Alois blushed in embarrassment.

"Well whatever. Come on, show me inside. It's your place."

"Oh, right." but instead of going in, the blonde ran to the side where he opened a box. In it were lamps.

"It's day time. Why would we need those?"

"Some of the windows are boarded up and there isn't much light."

"So?"

"So it's bad for your eyes." It wasn't a complete lie. Many people knew how bad it could be if you strained to see in bad lighting. The real reason he had grabbed it was because he was scared. Though he would deny it to the end, he knew it was true.

"Don't be such a worry wart and come on!" Ciel snatched the lamp from his hand turning on his heel as he did. Alois ducked. It was a good thing too; if he hadn't the lamp surely would have hit him.

Once they were both inside he hung the lamp from a small hook and watched as the taller boy shut the door. To be honest, he was becoming sort of worried. He knew how bad his asthma was and he definitely knew how dangerous this could be. Still he sat there, taking deep long breaths to try and keep himself calm. Trying to distract himself he looked around. The place was filled with small boxes and crates, each one covered in dust and cobwebs. He never fancied spiders and the more he looked the more he found. The roofs, corners, and edges were covered in them. Most from what he could tell were Daddy Long Legs, others were thicker looking and resembled baby Tarantula's more than anything. He shuddered. The last thing he needed now was to accidentally run into a poisonous spider like a Black Widow or Brown Recluse.

"Here." he looked at Alois as he handed him something. "It's a Twinkie. Take it."

"It looks old."

"They don't have an expiration date so don't worry about it." he took it anyway mumbling to himself that he still didn't think that was completely true. In truth, Ciel was glad he had been given the Twinkie. He had skipped breakfast mostly to spite Sebastian, but now he was hungry and he couldn't resist sweets. Brushing the small amount of dust off the wrapper he carefully opened it and took out the golden snack. When he deemed it edible he quickly ate it, licking his lips when he finished.

"Wow," Alois giggled, " You really liked that huh?" Ciel blushed furiously, but instead of some rude retort, the only thing that came out of his mouth was a fit of coughs.

"Ciel?" Ciel tried his best to say something, but choked on his own words. The lack of oxygen to his lungs left him frantic.

"Ciel, you're scaring me! What's wrong?" The blonde was holding him by his arms now restricting his movement even more. In a last attempt to get him to understand, Ciel grabbed a handful of dust and dirt from the floor and poured it on his head.

"Hey I'm trying to help you! Why did you pour dirt on my-" recognition seemed to click as Alois quickly grabbed Ciel's arm and pulled him up, bringing him outside as quickly as he could. Once outside Ciel found it immensely easier to breathe. Still coughing he struggled to calm down and regain his breath.

"Ciel! Ciel! Ciel are you okay?"

"S-top," he pushed lightly on the boys chest trying to give himself some room, " I'm...I'm fine." The blonde moved, but not far. He was relieved to hear Ciel's voice again.

"Ciel...I'm so glad you're okay." Alois went to touch Ciel's arm, but his hand was quickly slapped away.

"Don't...touch me. You've done enough as it is. I don't need anything else to go wrong. This was a stupid idea, I never should have gone with you." Alois' face fell as he heard those words. Ciel was right, it was his fault.

"I'm sorry. None of this was supposed to happen."

"You're right, it wasn't!" he shouted, but then added more quietly, "They should all still be here..." By this time Alois had no idea what the other boy was talking about. He went around in circles whispering to himself names and reasons why.

"Ciel..." he reached for the boy again.

"Back off!"

"But-"

"I'm done with you. Alright? I don't like you and I don't want to be your friend. I don't need you or anyone else." Before he had a chance to protest, Ciel was on his feet and walking away. He was shocked. He knew that he had made a mistake by bringing him into the dirty hut, but how was he supposed to know Ciel would react that way. He had no idea that the boy suffered from asthma, he had never said anything.

Alois sat on the forest floor and pulled his knees up to his chest. He was sorry, he really was.

So, how was it? I wasn't really sure where to put them since I have never skipped school before, but I figured something like that would be believable. XD And ew, I hate spiders. When I first watched season two and I saw the spider in Alois' mouth I freaked. One more reason not to like Claude. (okay, the real reason I hated him in the first place was because he killed Alois)

Well enough of my ramblings, Alois is offering a Twinkie to everyone who reviews! :D
