Chapter 5 -

Ciel stared blank eyed (does this makes sense?) at his butler. It was the first time ever he heard Sebastian say his name. After a while of staring at each other mindlessly, Sebastian smiled at Ciel, with a smile meant for wooing (haha old word) girls. Seeing as Sebastian smiled, without even know the reason as to why he did(Sebastian), Ciel followed his butler's expression and grinned up at him. Then Ciel brought his little thumb up to his mouth and began to suck on it; while bring his head back to Sebastian's chest. Feeling Sebastian's warmth, as well as his presence, Ciel who felt content and safe, immediately fell back asleep; said baby earl slept very peacefully on top of his butler while latching onto him, well, his tailcoat.

Ciel woke up the next morning, refreshed, happy, and not at all tired. Immediately, on instinct, Ciel looked around the room for any sign for his demon butler. Finding his room empty, Ciel instantly felt uncomfortable and unsafe alone. Hence, the only thing the toddler earl could come up with at that moment to ease his feelings was to bawl his eyes out. Though this only lasted a few moments. Sebastian had heard his bocchan cry as soon as he began, and straight away headed towards the master bedroom-turned-infirmary.

Ciel did not notice Sebastian was standing at the doorway right away. Said butler stood there and watched Ciel, lost in his own thoughts, for awhile. Only when the crying noticeably got a notch higher, did Sebastian turn his attention back to the wailing infant in the midnight blue crib. At that time, did Sebastian made his presence known to the earl. Sebastian held up his fist to his mouth and gently did a 'clear his throat' noise. But that little noise didn't go unnoticed by the infant; said infant instantly stopped crying and stared at the doorway at his butler. And almost instantaneously, a huge smile appeared on Ciel's tear stained face, and made his grabbing motions towards Sebastian.

Promptly, Sebastian made his way towards his young master. Once he was stand right in front of the crib, Ciel precisely stopped his grabbing motions, stared up at the butler and held both of his arms up, as in cueing the demon to pick him up. Sebastian did just that. And as soon as he did, Ciel placed his head on his favorite spot on Sebastian's shoulder/neck and snuggled against him while making himself comfortable. Ciel, as well, stuck his little thumb in his mouth, and unconsciously wrapped his gray tinted navy blue tail(if anyone knows a better way to describe Ciel's hair color tell me!). Noting the extra appendix hugging him, Sebastian grinned, while reaching up to Ciel's other extra feature and petted it in a soothing manner. As if on cue, Ciel instantly started to purr as soon as the hand came in contact with his ears.

Sebastian made his way down, with Ciel still in his arms, for breakfast. When they reached the kitchen, Sebastian put Ciel in his high chair, making sure the position of the chair was facing him as he worked on making the breakfast; which consisted of a scone cut up into tiny pieces, and ½ cup of applesauce - homemade with extra brown sugar, of course. Sebastian also prepared a bottle of milk for later. Just before going off to begin the preparations, and to make sure Ciel won't be fussy, Sebastian patted Ciel's head and cooed, "be a good boy Ciel and sit quietly while I make you some food okay?". Ciel replied with a nod of head, though the smile was gone from his face. With a more pat on his head, and a small smile, Sebastian turned and began making breakfast.

Breakfast was soon ready due to Sebastian's nonhuman speed. Said butler placed the readied meal on Ciel's small table attached to the high chair, and stood off to the side. For a few minutes, both master and servant just stood or sat there quietly, while Ciel kept looking back and forth from the untouched food to his butler. After this went beyond his patience, Ciel could not take it any longer. The silence made him a tad lonely, and he was freaking hungry! With that Ciel slammed his fist on the table thingy, though not at all hard enough to knock to food off, and stared up at his butler. When that did nothing to gain his butler's attention, Ciel whined "Sebasian!", then opened his mouth wide at him. Sebastian did nothing but looked at his childish young master until Ciel whined his name again. Sighing, remembering his master was now only a toddler and couldn't do anything himself, Sebastian went in front of Ciel's high chair and picked up the baby sized spoon. Sebastian began to feed Ciel his breakfast, at which Ciel was delighted at. This continued on until all the food was gone. Though this took a bit because towards the end, although Ciel was already full, he wanted to make Sebastian proud and praise him for being able to finish all of the food. And when he finally did, Ciel literally fell back on his seat, way too full to move anything. Sebastian having understood everything Ciel was feeling/doing, smiled and patted his head as well as congratulating him. Having gotten exactly what he had hoped for, Ciel grinned at Sebastian and fell into a small daze from being happy and extremely full. Taking the small opportunity, Sebastian went and cleaned up before his master got out of the daze. Then afterwards, Sebastian picked Ciel up, who was still in a little daze, and walked out to the garden. He set Ciel down onto the soft grass and woke him up from his daze.

"Can Ciel play in the garden for a while as I clean it up for a bit?" Ciel quickly nodded at the task given to him, even before registering what he was told to do. Therefore, when Sebastian walked off, still within eye distance, Ciel immediately called out to Sebastian and started to tear up. Sebastian quickly rushed back to Ciel and said to the infant, "I thought Ciel said he can play in the garden for a while by himself." Ciel quickly furiously shook his head and grabbed onto Sebastian. Instantly, Sebastian went to calm the infant, and reassured him that he'll only take a minute. Soon Ciel had stopped crying completely. But a pout had replaced the crying as he went to play for only a bit as Sebastian worked.

Sure enough, when Sebastian rushed back at the promised time, the pouting Ciel was gone, and in its place was a happily playing one. However, during that short period of time that Sebastian left, Ciel had gotten himself covered in dirt. Also, from having so much fun, he didn't even notice Sebastian was back and behind him, just watching him. That is until, Sebastian couldn't take the amount of filth on Ciel and pick him up though an arms' distance from his body. Which, at this Ciel frowned, not knowing why Sebastian was allowing him to touch him. Hence, Ciel tried to wiggle in Sebastian's arms to get his attention and once again made grabbing motion, but this time indicating that he wanted Sebatian to hold him closer. But with Sebastian's clean freak-ness, he told Ciel, "that won't be happening as long as you are cover in dirt bocchan. Now let's get to the bathroom to clean you up."

Surprising Ciel, when they got to the bathroom, the bath had already been drawn. And to no delay in Sebastian's part, he quickly discard both his and his master clothing and got into the water. However, with Ciel being a neko, he freaked out as soon as his feet touched the lukewarm water. "Now Ciel, it's okay. I'm right here, there's nothing to be afraid of." With Sebastian there, assuring him his safety, Ciel calmed down rather quickly, but he clung to Sebastian like his life depended on it. "It's alright Ciel, I'm right here. I'll make sure nothing is going to happen to you." Ciel relaxed against Sebastian's chest, letting said caretaker clean off every single spot of dirt on Ciel.

Once Sebastian finally got all the dirt off of Ciel, it seems Ciel had dozed off a bit from being in his butler's comfort. Therefore, Sebastian carefully dressed Ciel in is midnight blue footie pajamas, after putting a nappy on him. Then he walked them both to the master nursery and placed Ciel down in his crib. In which the toddler quickly curled into a comfortable position and fell to a deep sleep while sucking on his thumb.

Aurthor's Note

This chapter is short because I wanted to upload something, since it has been more than 1 month. I didn't know if I should have named it CHAPTER 5 PART 1, but I'll just leave it as chapter 5 then the next as chapter 6 since it'll make more sense. Also, lastly, I'm kinda disappointed that I didn't receive the amount of new reviews that I wanted, but oh well, can't always get what you want. Hoped you enjoyed this chapter.
