Hi you guys! Do you know how hard it was to write this? It was extremely hard. Especially trying to find a happy medium between care and just want. I don't know. I don't know how I feel about this one, since I had to keep it closer to want than care. I have a feeling the next one is going to be easier, since it'll be closer to care than want. Thanks for reading and being so supportive!
Sebastian didn't necessarily care for colors. He wasn't a fan or reds or yellows or greens…but blue and purple held a special part of his heart. They weren't his 'favorite' color, but they were the two colors that he could stand to be around him, more like staring at him, twenty-four seven. In other words, he was fine with Ciel watching his every move for some sort of flaw or opening to go and dig himself into. Sometimes he would even purposefully not do something perfectly to give the child a chance to point him out.
Anything to see those two colors glimmer with a hidden smirk, that yes, finally he had found a flaw in the ever perfect butler Sebastian Michaelis. Of course, he did not allow anyone else to see him mess up on purpose, or in general. He was always perfect when they had guests over, showing off how the Phantomhive household would work- only with the upmost best people in the fields that they were there for.
And that would also earn a smirk, not directed towards him, no, but directed towards shocked looks at how a mere 11 year old boy could run a family, even with it only having one occupant; himself, and a company with ease and success. The smirk would of course be hidden again, but this time instead of through his eyes it was hidden behind a coy hand, placed there solely for making him look a bit more innocent.
The blue color was the one that everyone saw, 24/7. A blue orb that followed your every move, analyzing and plotting against you within a child's body and with a child's face. Some wouldn't say his eye was blue, but perhaps, a more specific color such as royal blue or another rich color. Royal blue fit the title of what Ciel was quite well, he wasn't royal, but he was a noble. And even with the two being so far apart, they were quite close.
The innocent purple color was the one that graced Sebastian only. He would characterize it as having a lilac hue, a very pale purple color. It glowed a deeper purple when he was giving an order, the contract seal that held them together marked clearly on the once pure eye. Sebastian was sure he didn't mind marking up the eye, Ciel that was, the child didn't' seem to have an issue wearing an eye patch or only using one eye to see.
If anything, Sebastian had a feeling Ciel enjoyed wearing an eye patch. Maybe it was the feeling of having something that made sure his world was real, or the calmness of having a brush ran through his hair in the morning to make sure it wouldn't knot around the thin string connected to the one patch. Whatever it was, Sebastian was fine with it as long as no one else saw that gorgeous eye that was his- only his.
He had a feeling if anyone know how he thought about the child, they would be a bit creeped out. Liking an eye more than the actual child? That was quite peculiar. However, with being a demon, it was plain sense that he would be more attached to the contracted area of the child than the actual human being. If it was the opposite way around, he would seem way too human for even himself to be happy with.
So that royal blue eye could look at everyone and everything, could be seen 24/7. He didn't care. Only that lilac eye would stay hidden away, only shown when they were in privacy, only for him, always for him. He was okay with that. Sometimes he wished both would be lilac, so he could have the child all to himself, but that wish would come soon enough; it wasn't long before his little master had finished his goal that he started with.
