Ciel felt completely and utterly alone. He figured it would take at least a few days before he truly missed Sebastians presence. He was completely wrong. Laying sprawled out across the bed he kept the lights on knowing he had little to no chance of falling asleep. He needed Sebastian. He wanted the demon with him more than ever. He sighed deeply and closed his eyes trying to fight off the pain that was slowely eating him away.
He had realized Sebastian was everything to him. Even when the demon tortured him; hurt him, he couldnt let him go. Sebastian was the only thing close to a friend that Ciel ever had. He was the one dependable thing in Ciels life. No matter how much pain Ciel faced he could always count on Sebastian to be at his side. The demon wasnt going anywhere. That much at least was obvious. Sebastian had promissed to be at his side untill the end and Ciel trusted him.
Ciel had just faced an entire 24 hours without Sebastian. He feared he would go crazy without him. All he needed was something to calm his nerves. Maby a hot cup of tea would calm him down. He slowely sat up and made his way to the kitchen.
As he made his way down the hallway he could smell the delicious aroma of high class cooking. It didnt surprise him in the least that the servants were already preparing breakfast. After all at his own estate Sebastian had started cooking at close to midnight. Some how the scent of things cooking calmed Ciel. It made the whole situation seem more normal. With a slight hint of a smile he swung open the door to the kitchen and stared shocked at the slim outline of Sebastian.
He felt his lips part slightly as his ex servant turned around. Sebastian seemed just as surprised, if not more to see Ciel. The two stared at eachother for a moment untill Sebastian finnaly broke the silence.
"May I question why youre down here so late Ciel?"
"I- I was just going to get some tea or... a snack or...cake..or something" Ciel blushed not exactly remembering what he had come down for. Sebastian actually looked worried about him.
"If I may say you look a bit stressed my lord..." He cocked his head watching to see what Ciels answer would be.
"I... just... couldnt get to sleep."
"I see.. May I ask whats bothering you?" The concern in Sebastians eyes was almost enough to kill Ciel.
"Ahh...Its not your problem Sebastian.. Why are you down here so late?"
"Cooking is very relaxing for me."
"May I ask whats bothering YOU then?"
"Ah my lord, you probably dont want to know the real answer to that."
"Sebastian..." Ciel looked down. He wished he could know what was going on in the demons head. Maby be he could actually understand all of those little riddles Sebastian so often spoke in. Hed relied on the man for years... But it seemed, whenever Sebastian was upset Ciel either ignored it or couldnt figure out what he meant.
Sebastian took a step closer snapping Ciel out of his self induced trance. He had a worried expression on his face.
"My lord is something wrong"
Ciel blushed at how close Sebastians face was to his own and stopped. Sebastian looked so worried. So obviously displeased.. Ciel couldnt take it. If Sebastian said one more word hed snapp and try to kiss him again.
Sebastian gently reached out to touch the boys face. He really was worried about the poor thing. Ciel was staring at him like a dear in headlights. What worried him more that that though was when he saw Ciel flinch at his touch
"Ciel are you okay?" He leaned closer to the boys face not sure if he could really get his attention. Ciel seemed to snap out of whatever trance he was in and shook his head violently then took off running back to his room.
Sebastian would have been lying had he told anyone he hadnt considered going after the boy. He certainly did want to. But he stayed back for principals sake. He would regret this more than anything later.
