Happy New Year everyone, I hope it's been a good year so far. First I want to apologize for not updating in a while I've busy with school and because I have a more hectic schedule I can't update as much as I want to but I will try to post something every month.
Reviews Please!
Chapter 7, Sebastian POV:
During the night, while Ciel II slept, I couldn't help but watch him. While the previous Ciel nights were plagued by night terrors, Ciel II seemed to sleep soundly. He would occasionally turn but that all; he showed no signs of bad dreams. But I guess that it was a result of nothing horrible happening to him. Actually I just realized I know nothing of this Ciel past, of course I didn't know much of the previous Ciel past either. I mostly had to piece together his past from what Tanaka and anyone else who was close to the Phantomhive family, said. Sometimes the previous Earl would tell me stories of his past but that only occurred a few times.
The sun rose and Ciel II woke up, I noticed since I heard soft movement around the townhouse. At first I thought the cat was the one moving around but then I noticed the movement seemed too human which made me realized it was actually Ciel II. Lately it seems that I've been quite clumsy when it comes to the Ciel II. I can't track him correctly, although that's probably Undertaker fault. My heart aches heavily and races faster than I felt whenever I'm near him, my body heat rises, and my hand feel wet. Why is this happening to me?
I turned my head at the sound of a car starting, I saw him then drive out of his driveway; I figured he was probably heading to Funtom building. Since I have yet to receive the job I had no reason to even enter to building, so in the meantime all I could do was wait for him to actually call me. I already purchased a prepaid phone and placed the number on my resume, it was only matter of time before he called me. Now I'm playing the waiting game.
Ciel POV:
After arriving at the Funtom building, I head to my office on the top floor. My secretary handed me my coffee and looked at all the files that they placed on my desk. Though I should be focusing on my company, I can't help but think about Sebastian. I mean I've thought of him before but not like this. Although last night conversation with Undertaker told me I had no choice but to hire him, I'm uncertain if my heart can go through all of this.
After 125 years my heart still pounds for him, I tried everything to get over Sebastian but nothing works. I left to not only make Sebastian happy (which obviously worked) but to also to distance myself from him; sadly distancing myself made things worse. Working at Funtom only made me think of Sebastian more since he helped out with most of my work; I tried dating but, well…um it didn't go so well.
I sighed. Do I really need a P.A? Sadly the answer was yes, I do. I opened my desk drawers and took out Sebastian file. Opening it, I looked for his number; probably pre-paid phone he brought for situation alone. I dialed the number, silently praying that he wouldn't answer. He picked up on the first ring.
"Hello"
"Hello Mr. Michealis"
"Hi, may I ask who's calling?"
Don't pretend like you don't who this is, you bastard! "This is Ciel Phantomhive, I'm calling to inform that" oh how I wish for any way to not be doing this, "you have chosen to be my P.A"
He chuckled, "I must say that this complete surprise to me, I never would've expected to receive this wonderful opportunity."
Surprise, my butt! "Well after careful thinking" More like no other choice, "You seemed as the most appropriate choice"
"Thank you, I will make sure to do my best as your P.A. I promise that you will not regret this"
I already do, "Yes, I will see you tomorrow morning. Be bright and early."
"Of course, Mr. Phantomhive" I hanged up before he could and I brushed my hair with my hand. Is this my punishment? To be with the man I love, who also wants to kill me. If I wasn't a demon I would be truly afraid.
…
I spent the day trying to focus on my paperwork but Sebastian kept entering my mind. I mean I've thought of him before but not much. I sighed and gave up on completing any work. I pack a few of the important files, and maybe later tonight after drinking 2 (20) glasses of whiskey I might be able to focus. After entering and exiting elevator I walked towards the front of the building and thankfully avoiding members of different departments in the building. Since I didn't want to be cornered by Sebastian again I had them bring my car to the front so I can get home faster.
One of my employees opened the driver door and I quickly stepped inside; driving through London. The London I knew was slowly changing; the stone streets were replaced with asphalt, traffic lights were placed on every block, and the so called 'London Eye' placed south of the Thames River. I will never understand why people are so drawn to this; it's just a giant Ferris wheel. Ah well I guess they had to think of something to draw tourist here.
The London Bridge was finally completed four years after my 'death'. I must say it looks very nice especially when there's not an Angel of Death isn't using it as a 'holy' gate.
I finally pulled up to my driveway and debated whether or not to put it in the garage. Feeling lazy I decided not to and placed the car by the front. I then entered the townhouse and opened the door, to which I was greeted by Bass. I sighed as ran my hand through my hair. I am definitely not looking forward for tomorrow. Maybe I'll call in sick but that might give Sebastian a reason to come look for me, so in a way I would still see him. Dammit!
…..
The next morning I reluctantly woke up, actually I wouldn't have woken up at all if it wasn't for Bass. Somehow that damn cat pulled open the shades and kept meowing in my ear. Why is he so similar to his namesake? I grudgingly sat up and slowly moved to brush and shower.
After putting on my suit and tie, I walked downstairs and opened the fridge to see what to eat; as I was grabbing the milk the doorbell rang. I turned and looked at the clock, it was only 7am. Who would be here so early in the morning? It wouldn't be Undertaker since he has his own key, (that he copied from my original set). Walking towards the door I couldn't think of anyone, after all aside from Undertaker, anyone I knew died, almost 50 years ago. As I neared the door, I sensed a familiar aura, my eyes widened. That person won't since my car is still parked in the front, (I knew I should've placed it in the garage). I slowly reached for the doorknob and opened the door.
His smile was the first thing I noticed, "Good morning, Mr. Phantomhive"
I stopped staring at his smiled and registered his words, "Good morning Sebastian, may I ask what you are doing here?"
"You should to be bright and early and so here I am"
"I meant at Funtom, not at my home"
He didn't stop smiling; something tells me he already knew this, "Oh, forgive me. I thought I was to meet you at your home."
"If I wanted you to come meet me at my home, I would've said so"
"I apologize, for making such a silly mistake."
I doubt it, "Since you're already here, why don't you come inside." Sebastian walked inside and I closed the door behind him.
"What a beautiful home you have"
"Thank you" I then remembered that Sebastian thought I was a Phantomhive descendent. "It belonged to family.
"Ah yes, the infamous Phantomhives"
"I'm guessing you've heard of my family"
He smiled widened, "A little" Lying bastard. "But books say your family was the dead Queen Watchdog, who was tasked to eliminating any worries she had. Your family apparently had control over the 'underworld'."
I doubt that there are the books that speak of that last part, mostly cause I check. "For someone who says they know little, you sure know a lot." How are you going to get yourself out of this smart guy?
"Well I may have lied a little, because you see my ancestor was a butler to your ancestor the first Ciel Phantomhive." Wait what? Is he really playing the descendent card as well? No fair!
"Oh really? How surprising"
"Yes, in a way, it's almost like its fate since my ancestor name was also Sebastian Michealis. I guess I'm tied to you."
What the hell? He's making it seems as if were star-crossed lovers or something. Although I wish it so, there's the problem of him hating me and also wanting to kill me.
AN: That's for now. I hope you like it, please write a review till next time, ja ne!
