''Are you sure you'll be fine on your own?''

''yes''

''Do you need anything before I leave?''

''Sebastian, please! You're only going to the store!'' Frustrated Ciel threw his arms in the air.

''Yes but It's already dark and I don't like you being alone here''

''I'll be fine''

''But what if you need anything? What if something happens?''

''Stop being such a mother hen! I can manage with my crutches'' Ciel answered while gesturing to his crutches. Sebastian sighed.

''If you're sure...''

''YES!''

''Okay, I'll be right back'' Sebastian left and Ciel was alone. Sitting on the couch with a photo album and his favorite blanket and stuffed animal. The bitter rabbit. Which his mother had given him when he was born. It was a trademark from his father's company 'Funtom'. The company was taken over by Ciel's uncle when Vincent died, but would be Ciel's once he was old enough.

Ciel flipped through the photo album. There were photo's from his mother and him. And also from his father. Seeing a picture from the three of them made him emotional so he put the album aside. Turning on the tv. After a while he started to smell something..burning? Wait..burning? Did Sebastian leave the oven on? Ciel stood up to investigate, taking his blanket and wrapping it around his shoulders. Slowly hopping to the kitchen with his crutches. The oven wasn't on. Then where did the smell come from? Ciel decided to check the entance area, maybe it was coming from outside. Standing above the staircase, Ciel saw the entire entrance hall was on fire. He was only stunned for a second before he quickly made his way back to his room. He closed the door to his room. Looking around for his phone...It was downstairs..probably already consumed by the flames.

''Shit'' Ciel muttered and opened a window., the smoke already making It's way upstairs. He heard sirens in the distance, hope filled him once again. People (His neighbors, who probably called the fire department) had already started to gather around the house. Ciel called out to them, and some noticed.

Ciel started to cough when the smoke became thicker, he was half hanging outside the window trying to breath. It was getting really hot. Ciel turned around, the fire must've made It' way to his room. He called out again.

''HELP!''

Then Ciel remembered something, he stumbled over to his bed and grabbed the stuffed animal and photo album, it was the only picture of his mother that he could save. The smoke was getting thicker and thicker, and he could barely see. He coughed louder. His asthma was acting up.

The fire department arrived soon. And were able to put out most of the fire, Ciel was on the floor coughing when he felt arms lifting him up. Wrapping him in a fire resistent blanket. He refused to let go of the items in his hands. A mask was placed over his face, and he could breath a little better. He couldn't open his eyes though,. But soon enough he felt the night air hitting his face, and he dared to open his eyes just a little bit. He was placed on a stretcher, and brought to an ambulance. People were checking him over. It was all just a blur to him.

''That's my son!'' He heard someone calling in the distance, and soon he saw Sebastian in his field of vision. Still gripping the items in his small hands, he was checked over by the paramedics. After it was clear that he was fine, they left him alone for a while with Sebastian.

''What happened?'' Sebastian asked. Ciel shrugged.

''I don't know..I was just in my room looking through pictures when I started to smell the smoke..and it's all a blur after that''

Sebastian looked at the items in Ciel's hands, stroking his hair. While Ciel's safety came first, he was glad that he had managed to rescue some of the pictures. He hoped the damage wasn't too big.

''Sir? Are you the owner of this mansion?'' A fireman asked.

''Yes, is the fire out?'' The man nodded.

''It is out, theres a lot of damage on the first floor though, and some smoke damage on the second.''

''It's alright, we can figure it out.'' Sebastian said, and the fireman left.

''Where do we have to go now?'' Ciel asked anxiously, his childhood home wasn't completely lost was it?

''Were staying the night in a hotel, and we'll see tommorrow. Now I'd like to speak a paramedic about your health before we go.'' Sebastian left Ciel for a moment to look for a paramedic. And Ciel couldn't help but wonder. If the fire wasn't caused by him or Sebastian...

then who or what caused it?


I'm back next week with a new chapter!
