The Wedding part 2
3rd person POV
On this very busy day Ciel and his butler could be found in the young earl's room going over last minute details in the wedding and getting ready for the ceremony. Sebastian was going over the events of the day when Ciel turned and interrupted Sebastian.
"Sebastian, do you think she is happy doing this, marrying me I mean?" Ciel asked uncharacteristically nervous and even a little shy when he asked the question.
Sebastian just muffled a laugh and smiled at his master, "Well it does seem that she has gotten more comfortable with being here, but there is no way of knowing unless you ask her yourself. But I must remind you that it really isn't up to her, she's doing this for the sake of her country."
Ciel downed a little bit being reminded this marriage was by the request of the Queen. Though he had noticed the princess was warming up to the mansion and everybody in it; it was almost like she had lived here for years. "Fine then I'll go ask her myself."
Sebastian stopped the earl as he went for the door, "No young master I'm afraid that due to one of her traditions she is not allowed to see anyone, but Yasu until the ceremony."
Ciel huffed and turned back around, walking to a dresser. He opened one of the drawers and pulled out a box. Within the box Ciel pulled out a small gold bracelet that had belonged to his mother. "Then you go give this to Yasu and tell her that I want Shima to wear down the aisle."
Sebastian took the bracelet and bowed, "Yes, my lord." Sebastian then turned around and left the room. Ciel sat there looking into the mirror, everything seemed to move so quickly; it felt as though Shima arrived at his manor only yesterday. Ciel recalled all the moments he had spent privately with her, from their time in the garden to the night of the thunder storm. To Ciel it felt as if everything had happened in one day instead of a course of days and now he was about watch Shima walk down the aisle and marry her.
Moments later while Ciel was still deep in thought, Sebastian returned in a burst of panic, "Master, she's gone."
"You mean she left?!" Ciel felt his heart sink at the news.
"No, she was kidnapped." A familiar voice rang out. Ciel and Sebastian turned to see a very serious Grell sitting in the window with his arms crossed.
"What do you mean? How would you know?" A now furious Ciel yelled at the reaper.
"I know because I just saw her getting dragged away by another demon butler and three other goons with Yasu. I was going to after them myself, but I figured you would want in on this as well." Grell said jumping off the window.
"Alois," Ciel breathed out in anger, "He's trying to take her from me."
"We don't have a lot time if we don't want to create a panic." Sebastian said, "But Grell why do you care so much?"
"Well that day we met she grew on me in that short period of time; I also thought this would be a great time to fight alongside my Bassy." Grell said returning back to somewhat normal with hearts in his eyes while he imagined fighting alongside Sebastian and various other things.
Sebastian sighed shaking off Grell and grabbing Ciel, then they made their way to the Trancy manor as quickly as possible.
Shima's POV
I slowly opened my eyes and immediately felt my head began to throb. I was in an awful lot of pain; my head hurt, my ankles felt sore and on fire, I groaned in pain. Unfortunately I was still bound on the bed. 'If I could just get this gag off I could call for Yasu.' I hoped she was okay, even though she was a demon I was positive Claude was also one too, he's different from any human captor. I wondered if by any chance someone had noticed our absence, but I couldn't think of anybody that would try and break the tradition, I mean I'm pretty sure everyone was informed of that, but I was still hoping that maybe one person noticed or heard something.
I pried my mind from those thoughts and started thinking of ways to get out of here and call for help. I tried moving my ankles but they stung so from my struggling earlier, it felt like they were about to fall off. I tried bringing my arms up to my face and tried grabbing at the gag, they were so sore that I thought I couldn't do it. After some struggle I learned that whoever had tied this was not good at tying knots because it came undone after a few good tugs.
I took a huge breath, "Yasu! Come find me and get me out of here!" I screamed. I waited for what seemed like forever. I began to worry I hoped Claude hadn't found a way to kill Yasu, there was so little that I knew about demons that it scared me at this moment. It had only been a few seconds but I stilled felt doubt and worry until Yasu came crashing through the door. She didn't look too badly beaten up, just a few scratches and her clothes were almost completely torn up. She quickly began untying me, "My lady, I'm so sorry I couldn't get to you sooner. This is my fault I should have protected you better but I underestimated Claude and the triplets." She undid my ankles and looked furious, "This is because of me that you are hurt." Her face darkened and I was about to say something, but she picked me up and fled out of the room.
"Yasu this isn't your fault, you're not the one that dragged me here and tied me up." I said gently.
"But I couldn't-"
"That doesn't matter, what matters is that you're here now and we aren't dead. All we need to focus on now is getting back to the manor!" I said, almost yelling. I could see Yasu lightly smile as we continued on. "Yasu, know that this isn't your fault, just know that you are my faithful servant until you devour my soul."
Yasu smiled again, "Yes, my lady."
As soon as we got to the stair well leading to the front of the house, near the door, we say Claude and Sebastian fighting. "Yasu, you must go help him!"
She gasped and looked back at me, "But, milady, what about you? You could be hurt again." She looked down at me.
"Don't worry, I'll watch her and I already took care of those three goons." We turned around and saw Grell standing there, clothes torn and little blood on his white undershirt. Yasu nodded to him and jumped down to help Sebastian. Then it finally dawned on me.
"Grell?" I said.
"Yes, dear what is it?" He said looking over from the fight to me.
"You and Sebastian are demons aren't you." I stated this more than I asked it.
Grell hesitated, but then he smiled at me, "You're right, Bassy is a demon, but I am a grim reaper, I'll explain later, now is not the time, and I'm sure Ciel has a lot of explain to do now that you've realized it." He paused for a moment, "I guess Ciel didn't think of you finding out his dirty little secret when he came here, but it looks like you have a demon of your own."
"I guess we share the same secret." I looked down at Yasu fighting a long Sebastian against Claude, they looked to be winning. I then glanced back to Grell, "Is Ciel here?"
"I don't know if Ciel wants me to do this or not, but I guess it wouldn't hurt too much, it's just Alois and Ciel, so I'm sure I can protect you if harm came your way. They went to fight as well." Grell said shrugging and turned around; we carefully walked down the stairs and turned into a hall and then a door to a large room.
Alois had his back to me and Ciel was facing Alois. Alois had a sword and it looked like he was ready to stab Ciel, there was another sword across the room that I assumed at one point was Ciel's. As Alois raised his sword my adrenaline kicked on, I grabbed the nearest, heaviest thing, which was a vase, ran over to Alois and smashed it on his back side and head. Alois fell to the ground in a heap and Ciel looked at me in shocked and then in relief. The thing he did was shocked me, he ran over and wrapped his arms around me, pulled me tightly against him, and buried his face into my neck.
"I'm so glad you're safe." I heard Ciel say into my neck. I smiled and returned the hug. "We need to hurry and get out of here." Ciel released his hold only but only to intertwine our fingers together. I turned and look at Alois's body on the ground; he looked like he was still breathing. 'Had I really done that?' I was pulled out my thoughts when Ciel began to run with our hands still together and my ankles still burning, they even caused a slight limp in my step. Grell followed behind us as we went back to where the others were fighting. Yasu and Sebastian seemed to have really tired Claude down. When Claude saw us, he looked surprise.
"My master!" He yelled still looking at us, he was too distracted to notice Sebastian launch table wear at him, hitting him in the arm. Claude gasped in pain and glared at Sebastian.
"We will have to continue this later, but for now I have to go tend to my master." Claude said and disappeared from site.
"You guys go ahead, I'll hang around here for a while to make sure they don't try and ruin your day anymore. If you hurry back now you'll have enough time to get ready and be at the wedding without any suspicion." Grell said to us, "Oh and Bassy I'll be seeing you later." Grell blew Sebastian a kiss. I laughed, but Yasu and Sebastian both had a look of irritation.
I looked back up at Grell, "Thank you, Grell."
Ciel cleared his throat, "Yes, thank you, Grell, I'll have to find some way to thank you, for helping save my Fiancé." Ciel seemed a like he was trying to hide how grateful he was or that he didn't like the idea of thanking Grell.
"Dear boy, if you wish to repay me just send Bassy my way for a day or two." Grell winked, "Now go or else you won't have enough time to get ready, just look at Shima she's still in her undergarments."
I looked down and my faced flushed a tomato red. "Grell's right, let's go now." Yasu said and with that we made our way back to the manor.
When we arrived back at the Manor we were able to slip in without notice, Sebstian went to get something for my ankles, and we had about two hours before the ceremony so we rushed to our rooms. But right before Yasu and I entered my room, Ciel stopped me. He grasped my hand, pulled me towards him, and kissed my cheek. His action surprised me very much and then he leaned his head on mine, "I'm really glad you're safe and I'm happy to be marrying you." I knew at that moment my face was the same shade as the ripest tomato ever. He had rendered me speechless, leaving me with my mouth open agar. The whole time Yasu was getting me ready and trying to cover up some wounds, I couldn't help but think of Ciel's sweet gesture. In the amount of time that I had been at the Phantomhive manor I had barely had seen Ciel's "soft side" let alone a sweet side.
As my thoughts raced around in my head Yasu tried to get me in my gown as quickly as possible, after I had to change into new under garments. Once I was finally in it Yasu began to braid my hair and place small flowers into it. I think that's when in reality hit that day I was getting married, that I had to give up complete control of my country today, and that I had started to fall in love with Ciel. Let's not forget that Sebastian was a demon, I wondered how I had never noticed it before. I shook my head and got up out of my chair. It was finally time for the ceremony.
The palms of my hands started to get sweaty as we walked through the hallway. The wedding was being held out in the garden, Sebastian and Finny worked together to make it really pretty for today. Then it felt like everything happened in a flash. I was walking down the stairs, out the door, music started playing, I was walking down the aisle, and the whole time I was staring into Ciel's eyes. Words were said, but I can't really remember, I only picked up on a few things like, "In health or in sickness, till death do we part, and do you take this woman to be your bride." I heard Ciel say, "I do." Then I was asked the same question, I of course replied with, "I do." We then slipped on rings and then I heard,
"You may now kiss the bride."
I felt my face heat up as Ciel leaned in and our lips touch. It wasn't long, but it was long enough to feel sparks fly. We looked at each other again before linking arms and walking back down the aisle. Walking down the aisle I wanted to cry, in happiness and in sadness. My parents were dead, I couldn't handle taking care of it on my own, so I had to seek foreign aid, and now I was now married to a man I had only known for a about a month, and now my country was out of my control. But I can't say I was terribly miserable, I was taking a big liking to Ciel and although a lot of things here were done differently, London was enjoyable sometimes and I'm sure I would get more aquatinted with it. We walked back into the manor. The moment the door closed Ciel kissed me again and pulled back quickly, "I'm sorry I shouldn't have-"I pulled him back down and kissed him. We stayed there for a while, my arms went around his neck and his went around my waist. I pulled back and we leaned out foreheads against one another.
"This may be a little bit sudden and you probably don't feel the same way, but I've come to realize that I love you. I realized it when Alois took you away from me." He held me tighter, "I have never felt this way before, even Elizabeth. You make me feel like everything is going to be okay and I feel happy with you."
I was shocked by his confession and I almost couldn't find the words to reply to him, "Ciel, I-I think that I love you as well. I never meant for this to happen, but I also didn't think that it would happen, although I'm glad it did." I smiled up at him. At that moment Sebastian came for us.
"My Lord and Lady Phantomhive, your guests are waiting in the ballroom for your first dance." Sebastian informed us bowing. We link arms and made our way to the ballroom were we started to dance, slowly other people joined us. Once we were tired we step off the dance floor and talked to other guests. We received compliments and congratulations; most of the night was a rush. But the whole night Ciel never left my side no matter who tried to pull him away. The only time we separated was when the guests left and Yasu started getting me out of my gown.
"Yasu, when do we leave for Cambodia?" I asked as she undid the buttons.
"We leave tomorrow night, my lady. Why do you ask?"
"Because you know what lies in Cambodia. Are you ready for that?"
Yasu laughed, "My lady, I should be asking you that, because if I find this person and kill them, I will devour your soul."
"Yes, I understand, but until then you are to remain my faithful servant." I smiled in sorrow, "That's contract we made, is it not?"
"It is milady," Yasu finished the last of my buttons on my night shirt, "let's get you back to your new husband I'm sure he is eager to see you."
We walked down the hallway and into Ciel's room where he was already sitting in bed. I climbed into the bed and lay down next to Ciel. Yasu and Sebastian left us in the room and we Ciel wrapped his arms around me. We didn't say anything we just laid there listening to one another's heartbeat. I nuzzled into his neck and found myself drifting into a peaceful sleep.
Boom done XD I didn't mean for Shima to find out about Sebastian or Grell in this chapter but I figured she would be pretty stupid if she hadn't realized it. So I'm okay with how this chapter turned out and I hope you guys loved it
R&R PLEASE
