Three months later...
Ciel was sitting in his office and was trying to get some work done. He'd had so much of it to do these days it was crazy. Not only from the pile up that he had from everything that was going on a few months prior, but his company Lizzy was back home and he could have been happier to have her back. He could finally say that he has a family that he wanted, except for one thing.
The only thing that he wishes that he could change was the relationship that Lizzy has with Alexis. For some reason, he didn't like the idea of sharing his daddy, not even if it was with his mother. He didn't to like her at all. He just wanted to be with his daddy and only his daddy. When she would walk into a room, he would cry, when she wanted to pick him up he would try to fight her. Lizzy didn't know what she'd done wrong. Maybe it was just the fact that he's only known Ciel and not her.
"Ciel darling," Lizzy slipped into his office very quietly. Ciel looked up from his work and gave her a worried look. He could tell what was wrong and knew where this conversation was going to go. "We need to talk."
Ciel let out a sigh and stood up and walked over to Lizzy. He took her in his arms and began to speak to her softly. "I know. It's about Alexis." He pulled back from her and looked into her eyes. He took her hands and held them tightly.
"Daring, he just has to get used to you. I promise that he does not hate you at all."
"But what if he never likes me? What if he just remains the way he is?"
Ciel didn't mean to, but a smile came across his face. He was happy to see how much he really wanted to be in his life. He wanted nothing more than his wife and son to have an amazing relationship. But Lizzy was not a mind reader so she took his smile as something else. She thought that he was not taking her seriously and that it was hopeless. When she began to pout, he knew that he had to explain his smile.
"Lizzy, I love how you want to have a really good relationship with him. And I know the best way to do that."
"Really?" The spark in her eyes came back in a flash.
"He loves it when people read to him. I don't know why, but he loves it. Maybe he just finds it relaxing. Just read to him and he will love you forever."
"Thank you Ciel." Lizzy placed a kiss on his lips that was meant to be a quick 'thank you' kiss, but it turned into a long, deep, and loving kiss.
He couldn't remember the last time that they had a kiss like that, but he was not going to complain about it. He pulled her closer and the kiss got deeper. He was loving every moment of this. Soon, her back was against the wall and they both exchanged loving moans. Lizzy realized where things were about to go, and just when she was about to stop him, a crying baby beat her to it.
They pulled away from each other and gave each other awkward smiles. Ciel looked away and cleared his throat. She could see him blushing and thought it was really cute.
"Ummm...I guess you can...ummm...go read to him now."
"Yeah...I'll go do that..."
She opened the door and walked out.
She walked down the hall and walked into his room and looked into his bed and picked him up. He saw that it was Lizzy and began try to wiggle out of her arms. She didn't think that this was going to work at all. But she was going to give it a try anyway.
"Alexis, would you like for me to read to you?"
He was still trying to get out of her arms. She was going to take another approach instead. She picked up a book and went and sat in the chair that was behind her. When Alexis saw the book in her hand, he stopped trying to get away from her and started to calm down.
"You like this book?" Alexis saw the book and smiled and started to laugh. She smiled too and she began to read the book to him.
She had hope that things were going to get better with her and Alexis, but it would just take time, and a lot of books.
Ciel was walking down the hall from his office. He'd gotten a lot of work done today and was wanting to go a just relax. As he was walking, he heard a knock at the door. It was too late to have visitors and was not expecting anyone to come over. He heard the knock again and was going to just ignore it. He began walking away and thought nothing of it, till he heard something that made him stop dead in his tracks.
"Are you going to leave your butler outside in the cold young master?"
Ciel could not believe the voice that he was hearing. He turned and rushed to open the door. When he opened it, there was a tall and dark-haired butler with a smile on his face. Ciel could not believe his eyes. He couldn't believe that Sebastian was standing there in front of him.
"Hello young master. It's been a while."
I hope that you guys liked this chapter, and I had a little inspiration about Alexis from my little cousin.
I never knew why either but he loves it when people read to him and I could never figure out why and his favorite book is The Hungry Caterpillar. I think that's really cute ^_^.
Also another thing, due to some circumstances, I'm changing my name. So my new name on here is going to be Vynno.
But, I hope that you guys liked this chapter and don't forget to review ^_^.
