If we all cross our fingers, I might be able to get this up today. But maybe not. And I realized I made this slightly unclear, Ciel will revert to a baby-like state, in mind and body, but for now, just his mind. Because Sebby needs his big boy Ciel for a while. It'd be weird to kiss a baby… XD Again, sorry if I confused a couple people by this. Oops.
Anyways, this chapter is SUPER confusing. I tried best-est to try and make everything clear but it makes total sense in my head. In a couple chapters it'll all make sense though.
And this chapter will probably be short. This and the last chapter are just chapters that I needed. I needed to write them and I needed to post them. Just because Sebastian and Ciel are adorable. Can this be considered fluff? I don't know but they're cute. Just love it for them.
While Sebastian talked, telling Ciel about what was happening, his smiling face slowly disappeared. He stopped cuddling Corvus and Sinta and held them limply in his arms. He still leaned into Sebastian but not with his usual happiness and excitement. Sebastian held Ciel tighter trying to comfort him but the small boy didn't seem to notice. Sebastian couldn't take it anymore.
"Ciel, my Ciel, my precious, little Ciel, please, say something. I know you're probably in shock but I need you to acknowledge me. Please, Ciel, please," Sebastian begged, "I'm sorry this is happening but you still have time, you know. And I'll love you no matter what. I'll forever be by your side."
You've worked so hard to keep your calm, mature appearance. To create this image you wanted. Now you think you have to do it again, don't you? But do you really have to?
Ciel sat there, unmoving, tears sliding down his solemn face. The only thing that told Sebastian he was still alive was his small chest moving up and down. He raised his unclothed hand and wiped away Ciel's tears. He took a shuddering breath, "Ciel, please, please, please. Please snap out of it. Ciel." If he were anyone else he would have completely fallen apart, into a sobbing mess.
But if he intended on helping Ciel through this, he needed to remain calm.
Sebastian sat there rocking back and forth with Ciel in his lap, whispering comforting words in his ear. Something seemed to break Ciel out of his shocked stupor and he opened his mouth to say something but all he could manage was a small shuddering whimper-type noise. He tried again, "So I'm going to-"He broke off, unable to continue.
"Yes, Ciel?" Sebastian prompted.
"to… going to… going to- to-t-" Ciel trembled and Sebastian hugged him closer.
"Yes. You will. But I will be here through it all. We'll do this together."
"Is- Is this the real reason that… room… is here?"
Sebastian smiled, this was just like his Ciel, "Who could say? I don't believe it is though." Sebastian nuzzled his face into Ciel's hair, "Besides, you seem to have taken quite a liking to those two cats, huh?"
Ciel remembered the two dark haired felines resting in his lap and pulled Corvus up to his face and felt his fur against his skin. He raised Sinta a little higher and gave it to Sebastian, who accepted it with a smile and placed it on Ciel's head. Ciel giggled a bit, and then gave a high-pitched hiccup.
Sebastian let out a small laugh. Ciel's teary face turned to meet his and glared before hiccupping again. Sebastian's face was one of pure amusement. Ciel sighed, resigning himself to embarrassment, "You know, I knew something was happening but I didn't know what. I didn't seem to realize.
*HIC* Subconsciously, I knew I should stop acting *HIC* like this, but I didn't want to."
"I think you're finally beginning to realize you can enjoy your childhood. I'm not sure that has anything to do with this. Make sense?"
Ciel shook his head, cheek rubbing against Sebastian's chest.
"You've been acting like this because you want to. Not because of your 'rebirth,' let's call it. So there's no reason to be upset like this."
"But..."
"No buts, Ciel. You are no longer Ciel Phantomhive, head of the Phantomhive family, owner of the Funtom Company. You are my Ciel, a demon, the one contracted to me," Sebastian tilted Ciel's head to look him in the eye, "You are my entire world."
Ciel blushed and whispered, "And you are mine."
Sebastian smiled, not being able to put his happiness into words. He had told Ciel what he needed to and it came out alright. He was a little shock but with all these new things happening at once, he couldn't be blamed.
A sudden shriek came from outside somewhere on the other side of the manor, "SEBASTIAN!"
Ciel recognized Akantha's voice and withdrew a little further into Sebastian. Sebastian petted Ciel, whispering, "It's okay, my kitten, I'll deal with this."
"SEBASTIAN! Where are you? There's someone here to see you!"
Ciel looked up at Sebastian, "Who…?"
Sebastian looked back down at Ciel, "I don't know, my pet."
"Do you need to me get off?" Ciel gestured towards him on Sebastian's lap, "I don't want you to have to explain anything…"
Sebastian smiled at Ciel, who looked genuinely worried, "No need to worry. We will explain this to anyone and everyone. No one will take you away from me, physically or otherwise." He hugged Ciel tightly, "Unless you are embarrassed."
"N- No! I'm not."
Sebastian laughed and handed Ciel, Sinta, who had fallen from his perch on the blue-haired boy, "Didn't think so."
They sat in silence, waiting for Akantha and their mysterious guest to find them on their own, wanting as much time alone as possible.
"SEBASTIAN!" The one of the doors slammed open, denting to wall behind it and Akantha stormed in, "Of course! You're here with that boy again! What have you done this time?"
"Nothing, I assure you, Mother."
"There's someone here to see you. She's been waiting six years to see you again."
A woman with floofy blonde hair walked out from behind the other door and spied Sebastian. She squealed as she ran over to him and shoved Ciel off of his lap, who then landed on his two cats, and flung her arms around the startled man.
"What?" Sebastian asked startled, "How did you get here?"
Ciel, who was tending to the injured cats, asked, "Sebastian, who is this?"
Akantha, who had walked over to Ciel, leaned down and whispered in his ear. Ciel's eyes widened and his mouth flew open.
"This is… your girlfriend?"
WHOO! Took a couple hours but I finally finished this chapter. I was working on it on and off, between playing with my sister. Happy Birthday Andrea! Ciel's reaction was a little over the top if you don't understand what he's going through. Just think about it for a while and you'll understand. (I barely do.) It's like, new place, some insane mother out to adopt you. Now there's 'soon you'll have to create your image again'. It's like moving. Totally new and difficult. And there's the whole demon thing. And now the whole girlfriend thing. XD
Speaking of which, I need a name for her. I can't come up with one and I'm asking you guys for help. What's her name and what does she wear? Does she dress like a hooker as well? I have her personality down but here I need your guys' help. Review or PM me if you have any ideas! Bye guys!
