Filler: Christmas Special

Christmas at the Phantomhive Manor

Merry Christmas!

x-x-x-x

Snow was falling, coating everything it touched in a white blanket. It made the night seem so much lighter with the moon radiating off the white covered courtyard from where I sat, looking out my bedroom window. It was breathtaking.

I had the urge to run and feel that powdery whiteness crunch under my boots; feel it crumbling through my fingers, even if it made my skin ache. But I shook my head and pushed down on the childish thought, glancing one more time at the snow before walking over to my bed and climbing beneath the sheets. A small smile tugged at my lips as I thought of tomorrow's plans of decorating the mansion for Christmas; even though Ciel was highly against it.

x-x-x-x

The morning came faster than I thought, and a small spark of excitement filled me as I climbed out of bed, collecting a fresh set of undergarments and a clean maid uniform before leaving the room, rushing towards the bathroom a small ways from my room.

After I had washed up and dressed, I began my way down the large staircase to the kitchen on the main floor, intent for some hot breakfast to warm me up. The smell of freshly brewed tea and something else much sweeter met my nose the closer I got to the kitchen. I closed my eyes and inhaled the aromas, opening them to meet the sight of Sebastian working away preparing breakfast for Ciel. Bard sat grumpily in a chair in the corner; his hair frayed into a large mass upon his head as his cigarette dangled from his lips. He sent me a nod and continued on glaring at Sebastian's back.

I stifled a giggle, and the noise caught the black-haired man's attention as his eyes swept over to me; a small smirk lifting the corner of his mouth.

"Good morning, blossom. I trust you slept well?" He asked, his voice as velvety as always. His eyes glittered as he saw the blush dusting my cheeks, which always seemed to happen whenever I was around him.

"Good morning. Yes, I did," I gave him a smile as I fully entered the kitchen, eyeing the food Sebastian had finished preparing. Crumpets with a square of melting butter placed on top, with steaming tea already waiting on the tray. A small pot of honey sat beside it.

"Would you like me to take that up to Ciel for you, Sebastian?" I asked, feeling in quite a helpful mood. He sent me a strange look of surprise before that smirk returned, handing me the tray and setting cutlery on it next to the plate of crumpets.

"That would be most helpful, Sakura." The way he said my name sent a shiver through my body, and I tensed before I dropped the food. I quickly gave him a low head-bow, dashing as quickly as I could out of the kitchen without dropping anything. I could hear his small chuckle follow me as I fast-walked towards the staircase.

x-x-x-x

Knocking twice on the large door of Ciel's bedroom, I waited patiently for entrance as I balanced the tray in my hands. A few seconds after I heard his tired voice calling out an 'enter'. Holding the tray in one hand, a feat which I was used to after being a maid for countless years, I opened the door and entered the room, closing it soundlessly behind me.

Ciel sat on the edge of his bed, his long sleeping shirt creased and his hair tousled as he rubbed the sleep from his eyes. He looked so innocently cute that I couldn't help the smile that curved my lips.

"Good morning, Ciel-sama." I greeted, adding a Japanese honorific to his name. I felt oddly uncomfortable calling him 'master' or 'bocchan' as the other's did, so instead I added 'sama' which was used in my country to those with high status.

"'Morning." He grumbled, clearly still half-asleep as his eyes were dulled. I reached over to the bedside table where a small bowl of water sat, placing a cloth in it before rinsing away the excess water. I folded the cloth, and with a sneaky smile, I scrubbed gently at Ciel's face, to which he gave a small yelp of surprise from the coldness.

"Sakura!" He hissed, though there was none of that anger that radiated off my old master when I did something like this. Instead, there sat a now fully-awake blue-haired boy with a small annoyed aura around him. It really was cute. I giggled and patted his hair down, and I heard him give a small grumpy sigh.

"I brought breakfast up for you today," I started, reaching for the eye-patch that lay almost-forgotten on the bedside table. I had no idea why he wore such a thing, for his eye did not seem injured. But then again, I never really saw it. If I happened to see him without the eye-patch on, his hair always seemed to form a barrier over it. I mentally shrugged and began to tie the material around his head.

"Mm. What's for breakfast?" He asked, his eyes closed as I finger-combed his hair after spotting a patch of tangled hair. "Crumpets with a pot of honey, for your liking. And tea with milk; Sebastian placed a pot of sugar on the side just in case." I gave him a grin as he picked up the sugar pot up, placing a spoonful in the tea and stirring it, then bringing it to his lips to sip.

"I'll leave you to finish your breakfast. Call me if you need anything," I bowed and left the room, only to bump straight into a solid chest as I opened the door. I looked up to see Sebastian smirking down at me. A cough from Ciel told me I had been standing there for far too long, just staring up at the handsome man.

"I hope you both know that I am eating here." His obvious hint to 'get a room' or 'get the hell out before I lose my appetite' caused a giant blush to bloom across my face, and I wasted no time in skirting past Sebastian and dashing down the hallway, away from the infuriatingly gorgeous man.

x-x-x-x

Ciel looked over to Sebastian who still stood in the doorway and gave him a levelled stare.

"Do not forget that she is still branded as Trancy's. You have no leisure in toying with her, Sebastian. I have a goal I must reach, and that doesn't involve my butler becoming infatuated with a pink-haired woman." Though it was a warning for the butler to not waste his time playing with the woman, it did not seem to affect Sebastian as he returned the threat with a closed-eye smile.

"Understood, bocchan." But his words held no promises. Not like Ciel expected any from his sly servant, but it was still annoying nonetheless. He grunted and popped a piece of crumpet in his mouth after coating it in honey. His one uncovered eye gave Sebastian a pointed look.

"So? Is there a reason why you're disrupting my breakfast? Minus wanting a reaction out of Sakura." Ciel droned, picking up his tea cup and bringing it to his lips.

"Ah," Sebastian started, a sly, knowing smirk on his face at the mention of the pink-haired woman. "A letter was delivered from Lady Elizabeth." He pulled out an envelope from his waistcoat, passing it silently to the Phantomhive Earl. Ciel took it reluctantly, cutting through the wax seal with a small knife Sebastian handed him, and began reading its contents. His eyes swept over the lettering, sighing, and handed back the letter to his butler.

"She wants us to hold a Christmas Eve party." Ciel dead-panned. He ran a hand over his face, letting out a heavy sigh as he stood. "If I deny it'll be a pain; she'll just come here in person and demand me to." He sighed once again and glanced out the window, his visible eye widening as pure whiteness slightly hurt his vision. Sebastian noticed his expression and his eyes twinkled mischievously.

"Maybe it'll be a good idea to accept, bocchan. After all, Christmas is a time for sharing happiness." His voice was laced with a sickly sweet innocence that even made Ciel shoot a glare at him.

"Hmph. Fine, accept her party. I want nothing to do with it; just tell the others to prepare the mansion." Sebastian bowed and walked to the door, opening it and turning back to his master.

"No need to tell them that, bocchan, for they already are. Finnian has already brought in a rather... large tree. I'm guessing it won't take long for Maylene and Sakura to gather the Christmas decorations." At Ciel's open-mouthed expression, Sebastian smirked and found it a good time to leave his young master to his irritation.

x-x-x-x

"Sakura! Sakura!" Finny called, catching sight of me descending the stairs to the foyer. I waved to him, a smile on my face as I reached the bottom, finally noticing the large tree he held in his possession. My smile widened as my excitement from this morning bubbled back up inside me. I eyed the tree, finding it to be at least 4 times my height with thick, long branches.

At that moment Maylene walked into the foyer, spotting us immediately as she let an almost squeal-like noise. She darted over to us, her large spectacles concealing the expression displayed in her eyes. But still, I could tell she was just as excited as I was.

"We should get the decorations from last year. Bocchan kept them stored in the storage area, in a box. There should be enough for the tree and the foyer." She said, speaking fast. I could only grin in response as I followed her out of the foyer and to the storage room.

"I'll get the tree set up for you two to decorate!" Finny called after us, his wide smile showing pearly white teeth. We didn't bother calling back a reply as we half-ran half-walked to the room, intent on decorating until our hearts content.

x-x-x-x

After at least two hours of placing decorations and assortments on the tree and around the mansion, we finally stopped to look at our work. The tree stood tall and proud as the candlelight of the chandelier made the tinsel and ornaments sparkle. The golden star placed on top almost glowed.

"It's so pretty," Maylene said, making a small 'ahh' sound. I silently agreed, not taking my eyes off the greenery. Other shiny ornaments hung around the foyer but they were nothing in comparison to the tree.

"My, such a large tree. I see you two ladies did a fine job decorating," A deep voice rumbled behind us, and I nearly jumped in shock. Just how did this man manage to sneak up on us? I turned and my eyes met his, and I was sure a small spark of... something passed between us. Whether he acknowledged it or not, I did not know.

"Need I remind you that, nearly Christmas or not, you still have duties to attend." It was his way of saying 'get back to work'. The others scurried away, back to their designated work as I was left standing alone with Sebastian. Clearing my throat lightly, I made to walk away to finish my duties but lean arms wrapped themselves around me, pulling me towards a firm chest.

I looked up into Sebastian's eyes in shock, my mouth opening but no sound coming out. He leaned down so his lips rested next to my ear, his hot breath fanning over my skin and making me involuntary shiver.

"I did not say for you to get back to work, blossom," He breathed, his fingers coming to rest at my neck. I felt the bow situated at the neck of my uniform being fiddled with and I glanced down only to see the material hanging free. A crimson blush assaulted my cheeks as I watched his fingers slide the top button from it's hold, moving onto the next straight after. My breathing was becoming ragged. Just what was he doing?

"S-Sebastian... s-stop.." I gasped as I felt his lips press against my now-exposed neck, a small heat building inside me. The warmth of his lips left and I was left panting. A simple kiss to the neck and it.. he... had this much of an effect on me.

"Your reaction tells me otherwise, Sakura. You say stop but I can feel your desire," He hadn't fully moved from my neck; the heat of his breath on the sensitive skin making the muscles in my stomach jump.

Another two buttons popped undone. By now I was shaking. Not from fear, but a desire I was almost ashamed of. Ashamed because this was wrong, so very wrong. But the heat in my body left me aching for more. A warm hand grazed across the top of my clothed breast and I gave a sharp gasp. The heat inside me intensified to the point where I couldn't care where this went now. I needed him. I needed to feel him, all of him.

"Sebastian! I've been calling you for the past five minutes! Where are you?" Ciel's annoyed yell jerked us apart, my heart hammering in my chest. I glanced at Sebastian from the corner of my eye, quite shocked to see that even he had to control his heavy breathing. He shot me a quick look that I read as 'we'll finish this another time, for now get back to your duties'. I sent him a nod and darted off before Ciel saw me with his butler.

x-x-x-x

It was Christmas Eve. Snow had began to fall once again, adding to the already thick layer it previously left. We had been informed a few days prior that we were having a Christmas party, all thanks to Ciel's fiancée; Lady Elizabeth. I had never met the girl, but I thanked her for persuading Ciel to have a party. It at least brought some Christmas cheer.

Each of us had been assigned to wear something formal, but also had a Christmas look to it. As I didn't have many clothes in my still-new home, Ciel had, begrudgingly, bought me a beautiful red dress that ended just above the knees. But although Ciel bought it, I could tell from the smirk Sebastian shot me that he had chosen it. I felt like a doll that he loved to dress up. But I didn't mind, actually. It felt kind of nice to be fussed over so much. I glanced over at Maylene, who was laughing together with Finny and Bard; all three of them dressed as Santa's elves. I giggled and made my way to the kitchen to gather drinks for the party.

I filled champagne glasses and set them on a tray, about to pick them up when arms snaked around my waist. I leaned into him, surprised at how forward I was when his lips pressed against the skin just below my ear. I fought back a moan.

"You look lovely in red, my dear blossom." I smiled unconsciously as I closed my eyes, just enjoying the feel of him embracing me. It was still quite strange to think of Sebastian capable of kind, loving gestures, as he always put on a cold façade. But, I thought, he never did around me. I moaned as his hands rested over my clothed breasts; the heat of his hands soaking through the material and onto the sensitive skin that lay beneath. I arched into his touch, and I felt his chuckle rumble against my back.

"Sebastian... More.." I gasped as he roughly squeezed the mound; his touch still affective even through the thick fabric. I heard a small growl emit from him as I pressed myself closer to him, desperate for more contact. I gave a small cry as he bit down on the skin of my neck; his tongue darting out, dragging a wet path along it. I shuddered, releasing a moan.

The echoing sound of doors being slammed open met our ears, followed by a loud squeal of "Ciel~!" and we shared a defeated look. Lady Elizabeth had arrived for the party by the sounds of it. I sighed, readjusting the red bow tied around my neck to cover the mark Sebastian was sure to have made. I straightened out my dress and hair, taking a moment to calm my breathing and heart-rate before picking up the tray of drinks.

I walked to the door and looked over my shoulder at Sebastian, seeing the smouldering look in his eyes as he watched my every move. I gave him a shy smile, glancing at the corner of the door frame.

"Once everyone retires for the night, come to my room. We can... continue there." I was sure he was smirking at my blushing face, which was strange considering the boldness I had only moments before.

"That I will, blossom." His non-hesitant answer sent a pleasant shiver down my spine, and I gave him one last smile before leaving to the foyer where the party was being held.

x-x-x-x

Lady Elizabeth had been just as I imagined her; energetic and sweet. Her blonde hair that curled in perfect ringlets was tied up by cute red bows. Her dress looked almost similar to mine but was devoid of the white frilling at the edges.

"Would you like a glass of champagne, my lady?" I asked, holding out the tray to her. She looked uncertain; looking between the glass and Ciel, noting he had one resting in his hand. She picked up the glass and took a hesitant sip, expecting it to taste too alcoholic. But surprise lit her eyes and I hid a smile.

"I placed lemonade in the drinks so it blocked out most of the alcohol. I thought it would taste better for you and Ciel-sama," I explained, smiling kindly at her to which she returned.

"That's so smart, Sakura! Thank you," My smile widened and I bowed, leaving her to enjoy some time with Ciel. I placed the drink tray on a stray end-table and walked over to Sebastian, purposely, but discreetly brushing my hand against his. He looked down at me with those unique eyes I came to love looking at, his expression masked but with a hint of a smirk curling the side of his lips.

"I thought Ciel wasn't going to partake in the party?" I asked him, watching as Elizabeth dragged Ciel away from the wall to twirl him around. I muffled a giggle with my hand at the boy's obvious displeasure.

"It's due to Lady Elizabeth's method of... persuasion." Sebastian drawled, and I glanced up in time to see him quickly cover up the quirk of his lips with his usual indifference. I smirked, and faintly wondered where this new side of me suddenly came from. Maybe it was the freedom; maybe the tall, dark-haired butler standing beside me.

"Are there any instruments? A party must always have music," I asked, a sudden idea popping into my head as I glanced up at him. He looked thoughtful for a moment.

"Do you, perhaps, play the violin?" He asked after a short period. I nodded enthusiastically up at him, beaming. His sinfully skilled lips spread in his typical smile. "I will be back in a moment." I only nodded once again as he walked off, climbing the stairs gracefully.

"Sakura! Come dance with us!" Finny and Maylene called out to me in unison. I gave a small laugh and walked over to them; both my hands instantly in theirs as they dragged me across the room. Genuine laughter bubbled inside me and spilled from my lips as they twirled me in circles.

I was dizzy as I was sent spinning to Bard, who caught me and began to waltz with me. His elf costume just made it look hilarious. He grinned at me and I let loose another fresh peal of laughter. Soon enough, the others joined in, laughing and dancing until our sides hurt. Tears had gathered in my eyes from all the laughing.

I sat giggling on the cold floor as I regained my breath; the others still messing about. A black case came into my vision and I blinked up at Sebastian. "The violin," He stated, and I flushed in embarrassment. I completely forgot about my request earlier. I began to stand when I felt myself suddenly on my feet; Sebastian's hands gently gripping my wrists as he pulled me up.

"Thank you."

He passed me the case and I unlocked it, gently taking the varnished instrument in my hands. I picked the bow from the case and held the violin in its proper position; my chin sitting on the chin rest as my fingers hovered over the fingerboard. I stole a glance at Sebastian, seeing him already ready; music sheets propped up on the stand. They were Christmas songs and carols. The very first song to play was 'We Wish You A Merry Christmas'. I grinned to myself. Easy.

"Ready, blossom?" His bow hovered over the strings, his eyes set on the notes splayed on the paper.

"Yes." And we begun to play.

x-x-x-x

It was now six o'clock, the fun over for the time being. While we had played the violins, Finny, Maylene and Bard had sung along to the tune. Though their vocals were a little off, it was still fun. I found it hard to stop myself from laughing as I played.

"Dinner is ready, everyone. As it is Christmas Eve I'll be kind enough for everyone to sit at the dining table together." Sebastian's smooth voice called out, his lips quirked up in a sly smile as he looked over at us servants. The other three gave sheepish laughs. I grinned and began walking after the others as we made our way to the dining room.

The sight that met us was fantastic. Different arrays of food sat expertly piled onto the red table cloth; the aromas causing my mouth to water.

We all sat down in our seats. I felt the back of mine being pushed forward just as I sat, and I snapped my head up to see Sebastian smirking. I gave him a quiet thank you and a soft smile, a familiar feeling blooming in my chest at his kind gestures towards me lately. He bowed and left the room, which was odd considering everyone was seated and ready to eat.

I ate quickly, but not un-lady like. After I consumed my food I excused myself, bowing politely before leaving the room. Ciel gave me a quirk of his brow; a small frown marring his features but he stayed silent, to which I was thankful for. If he had demanded to where I was going, it would've been very embarrassing. Besides, I didn't want to reveal Sebastian's and my sinful secret.

x-x-x-x

I found Sebastian standing outside on the marble stairs of the courtyard; the cold of the snow seemingly not affecting him like a normal person. I shivered and found it best I put on a coat before approaching him. Dashing to my room I quickly shrugged on my cream-coloured coat, my fingers shaking as I hurried to button up the front. I grabbed the small cape that went over my shoulders; the lining soft with fur. I sighed in content at the warmth it gave me, and left the room.

Even in the few minutes I had been gone, Sebastian was still in the same position. Hesitantly, I reached out, touching his arm with only my fingertips. His ruby eyes swept to mine, and all I could do was stand there and stare. There was something in his eyes. Something I couldn't decipher.

"Sakura." His smooth, yet quiet voice made me blink and I focused on what he was saying. "It is strange," He paused as if contemplating on what to say. "In all my years have I never met such a woman as yourself," He paused again and I blushed as his eyes turned warm. "It is even more strange that I barely know you, yet I feel a... pull towards you. I feel such protectiveness over you that it's shocking." He sighed, his hand covering most of his face. "I do not know what to call this emotion, but it is strong and burning. And it is because of you." In a split second his fingers were gently holding my chin as my eyes stared up into his. There was such warmth and something else much stronger lingering in those ruby eyes of his.

"I've found myself to like it quite a bit." My eyes widened as his soft lips met mine, and my heartbeat sped. Butterflies fluttered madly inside me. My eyes closed on their own as I melted into the kiss, my body moving on its own as it pressed itself closer to Sebastian's firm body. He pulled away slowly and I opened my eyes, seeing him staring down at me with such a fiery passion in his own red-brown depths.

"We should not get too carried away, blossom. The chances are high that we will be interrupted yet again," He teased, a sly smirk tugging his lips up. I giggled and closed my eyes once again, feeling his forehead touch mine in an affectionate gesture.

"Let's go back inside. Dessert needs to be prepared anyway, and I have no doubt that the others are wondering where we are." I told him, smiling as his lips trailed down to my ear. He breathed over the skin and I gave shuddered; a small moan escaping my lips.

"Mm, Sebastian.. No more teasing," I groaned, pouting. He chuckled and gently pulled me upright, clasping my hand to the bend of his arm as he escorted me back inside.

x-x-x-x

It was as I expected when we entered the dining room. Ciel shot us a glare full of suspicion, whereas Elizabeth, or Lizzy as she had insisted on me calling her, gave us a happy smile. I returned hers with a smile of my own, a pink blush dusting my cheeks. Maylene was grinning ear to ear; Finny oblivious as always, and Bard was sending us a sly smirk to which Sebastian expertly ignored. I hid a laugh with a small cough.

Getting rid of the attention placed upon us, Sebastian and I began to serve the dessert. A simple yet sweet and light Strawberry Trifle. It worked, for everyone began to give small sounds of delight from the treat. I sent the dark-haired man a knowing grin.

x-x-x-x

Dessert passed quickly and everyone piled out of the dining room. I heard Finny shout something enthusiastically before all three of my newly formed friends began putting coats on. They ran outside, laughing and shouting in delight as their boots met the thick snow. I glanced from the corner at my eye and saw Lizzy's eyes sparkle, before she all but dragged Ciel outside with her. I laughed and smiled warmly at them.

I always enjoyed watching children playing in the snow; it reminded me of two certain boys that care-freely laughed and played in the snow years ago. 'Something that'll never happen again.' I thought sadly, fisting my uniform tightly.

"Sakura, you want to make a snowman with us?" Lizzy's voice broke me from my thoughts. My eyes widened and I gave Sebastian a look, as if asking for permission. Maybe I was. He nodded and gave me a small smile, and my eyes lit up in happiness. I threw my coat on hastily and ran outside with the others. We rolled a large ball of snow and began to build the snowman, pausing briefly to throw stray snowballs at each other; laughing all the while.

x-x-x-x

By the time we finished, each of our faces were tinged red, our fingers numb from the icy cold snow. I glanced at the large grandfather clock standing proudly in the foyer, just under the double staircase, seeing that it was nearing midnight. Ciel cleared his throat, our attention immediately going to him.

"Sebastian, prepare a room for Elizabeth. It's too late to send her home in this weather. Also prepare her a bath to warm up; her mother will have my head if I let her daughter become sick." He grumbled the last part out and we all hid secretive smiles, minus Ciel and Sebastian.

"Yes, my lord." I watched as Sebastian bowed, sending me a sly smirk before walking off with Lizzy at his heels after she had finished squeezing the life out of Ciel with her hugging.

"I guess we should all retire for the night, seeing as we have a busy day tomorrow." I said, shivering. All I wanted right now was a nice hot bath and to crawl under my bedsheets with a certain black-haired butler. The thought alone sent warmth spreading through the pit of my stomach.

"Hm." I had learned that Ciel's small grunts could be translated as a sound of agreement. Sebastian had told me that the young boy was much too proud to agree with others, so he merely gave grunts in response. But I didn't think it was a cold gesture. I understood Ciel's need to be slightly harsh, as he was still just a child with the weight of a large business rested on his shoulders. People would take lightly of him.

Everyone began to leave to their rightful rooms, the Phantomhive's servants lingering a few moments longer to put out the candles and make sure the doors and windows were locked. Once everything was checked, we left.

I walked straight to the bathroom 2 doors next to my room, plugging the bathtub before filling it with hot water. I sprinkled some bath salts into the water, and began to strip slowly.

A/N: Let the lemon scene begin! Do not read if you're under 15! :] I'm writing this in 3rd person now because it's just embarrassing in 1st person xD It's also my first attempt at a lemon so I'm sorry if it sucks D: Enjoy!

Reaching behind her, Sakura began to undo the buttons of her uniform; the material slipping past her collarbone the more buttons she released. A fair amount of cleavage was shown, and she was oblivious to the intense eyes that watched her every move.

Cold air met her warming skin as her maids dress fell to the tiled floor, goosebumps rising on her skin as well as her over-sensitive buds to harden. She shivered and quickly rid of the rest of her undergarments; checking the water quickly to find it just the right temperature, and then jumping in. Her flesh prickled at the sudden change of temperature, her body automatically tensing. But she forced herself to relax and sunk low into the water. After a few moments she emerged, gasping for air and slicking her drenched hair back out of her eyes. She let out another gasp as another reflection beside her own stared back at her; his brownish ruby eyes filled with heat.

She flushed and sunk back low into the water, ashamed of the scars marring her once flawless skin. He was sure to think her body was repulsive. But instead, soft, gloveless fingers trailed over the exposed flesh of her shoulders causing her to shudder slightly.

"There is no reason to hide from me, blossom." His soft voice whispered next to her ear. She turned her head slightly to face him, small gatherings of tears in the corner of her eyes as she gave him a watery smile.

"But my body is disgusting.. Years of punishment and torment from Alois did this to me. I hate it.. and yet I can't hate him.." The tears fell from her emerald eyes, making them shine like jewels. He shook his head slightly and frowned.

"Your body is not disgusting. I have seen far worse. Besides," He leaned closer to her; the wet on her skin dampening his clothes, but he didn't care. "It shows how strong of a woman you are, Sakura." And for the second time within only a few given hours, his lips were pressed against hers in a tender kiss. Her eyes closed as she gave in, wrapping her wet arms around his neck to deepen the kiss.

The next few minutes seemed like a blur as they finally parted for breath; Sakura's cheeks flushed with a light pink and her eyes hazy. In their heated kiss, the pinkette had managed to twist around so her upper body now surfaced from the water, not registering the chill that met her damp skin. Sebastian's eyes were smouldering as he appreciated what he saw in front of him. He licked his lips, and it was only then that Sakura realised just what he was staring so heatedly at. She squeaked, blushing furiously as she dove back under the water, though it did little to hide her nudity.

Sebastian smirked as his eyes glittered.

He began taking off his waistcoat; taking his time to unbutton the clothing. If possible, Sakura's blush only further reddened until she was sure she'd pass out.

"S-Sebastian! Not here! It's too complicated to do such a thing in the bathroom!" Her voice was slightly higher in pitch, which amused the black-haired butler. He stopped undressing and picked up a thick white towel that sat folded on the counter, before walking back to the bathtub. Without hesitation, he lifted the pinkette from the water and wrapped her in the towel within seconds. Sakura was amazed. But she had little time to ask questions as he threw open the bathroom door, not caring if he woke the others -if they were asleep- and proceeded to her bedroom; dropping her gently on the bed.

The towel he had wrapped around her came loose, revealing everything to his intense gaze. She tried to cover herself but he stopped her; placing his hands either side of her shoulders as he leaned over her.

"You're beautiful, Sakura." She could only gasp at his soft, truthful words.

Slowly, he lowered himself so his whole body arched over her; his hands and knees either side of her body supporting his weight. Strands of his obsidian hair fell into his eyes, and her eyes once again went hazy. He just looked so irresistible. Beautiful but so very masculine at the same time. She couldn't think straight, so she gave in. Gave in to her lust and desire and let her body take control.

She grabbed his shoulders and flipped him over, her small body straddling him as her breath came out in small pants. She leaned down and kissed him desperately, her tongue gliding over his bottom lip. All the while Sebastian's eyes were wide with surprise. He never thought that she'd be so... dominating. A smirk tugged the side of his lips up as he gave in to her demand and opened his mouth; her tongue wasting no time in exploring his moist cavern.

Sakura moaned, grinding herself onto the growing bulge in his trousers as her body became unbearably hot. She needed him so very badly.

Feeling her grind herself against him, where he could feel the heat seeping through the material of his trousers, he growled, flipping her over so he became the dominant one. He released her mouth, panting, and darted for her neck where he dragged his wet tongue over the sensitive skin. She shuddered, gripping his shoulders as she squirmed under him.

He smirked against her neck. 'Patience, blossom.'

He slowly made his way down her neck, licking, kissing and even sucking at the skin on the way. Her gasps and moans were making it hard to control himself, but he wasn't done yet. He wanted to hear her beg to him to take her; to hear her moan his name.

The black-haired man reached her collarbone, kissing the fragile area softly and making his way further down once more, where he stopped at her soft mounds. He was surprised. With her clothing on they seemed so much smaller. But, he thought, corsets were deceiving. He glanced up, seeing her eyes glazed with so much lust it made her eyes change a different shade of green. A more softer, lighter green. Her chest rose and fell quickly with her panting, and he gave her a mischievous look.

She gave a sharp gasp as he took her hardened bud into his hot mouth; his tongue flicking mercilessly across it. Her fingers grasped at the bed sheets when he gave a hard suck on her bosom, her back arched as she gave a silent scream.

Sebastian let go of her breast, and she collapsed back onto the mattress; wet strands of hair clinging to her flushed face. He stood, shrugging off his waistcoat and letting it fall the floor. Next was his shirt, and through hazy vision, Sakura marvelled at his firm, flawless body. He was lean; slightly muscled, but not unattractive. In fact, Sakura thought as her mouth watered slightly, he was even more attractive than she had imagined.

He began to unbutton his trousers when Sakura stopped him, her long wet hair falling over her shoulders and clinging to her flustered skin. The butler fought back a groan. She was so innocently erotic.

His thoughts were cut short as her slim fingers fumbled with the buttons, hastily pulling down the clothing as soon as they were free. Sebastian's lips curled and he stepped out of the fallen trousers, pressing her back down onto the bed with his body. He was left clad in men's standard victorian undergarments. She lay under him, completely naked and so sinfully inviting. He wondered, if only for a brief moment, what she would think if she knew he was a demon. What would she do if she knew she was about to give up her innocence to the damned? He rid himself of the thoughts. She would not find out his secret. He'd make sure of that. After all, he was the Phantomhive's butler. He could not afford to let anyone know his true identity.

The feel of her legs wrapping around his waist made him look down at her, seeing her biting her lip sensually. He wet his dry lips and rocked his hips towards hers, hearing her give out a pleasure-filled cry as she tilted her head back slightly. He leaned down, his lips next to her ear as he growled words out.

"Say my name, Sakura," He rocked his hips again, pressing himself more roughly against her unclothed sex. She mewled, tightening her legs around him, trying to bring him closer. But he didn't budge and she whimpered.

"Say," He bit down on her neck gently, licking at the wound he had unintentionally inflicted. "My name." He breathed the last words out; his control on his body slipping as he gave short thrusts against her. She was trembling, moaning, and finally, said his name in such a needy voice that his control finally broke.

"Sebastian... please!"

Her legs were untied from his waist as he ripped his undergarments off, thrusting himself inside her without a second thought. She gave a painful cry as her walls clamped down around his intruding length, a groan escaping his lips at her tightness. Tears fell from her eyes and he felt a moment of guilt, stilling himself to ease her pain.

"Shh, Sakura, shh. I'm sorry. I'll stay still until the pain eases," Sebastian whispered, finding it strange that he was being so kind. He leaned down, careful to not move his lower body, and wiped her tears away. She gave him a small, watery smile, and he kissed her softly.

They stayed like that for a few minutes until Sakura began to wiggle slightly underneath him; the feel of him pulsing inside her bringing heat back into her belly. She arched herself upwards, gasping loudly as the heat spread ten-fold.

"Does it still hurt?" The butler asked, but she shook her head no, not being able to form words. He looked uncertain, which was strange for him, so she thrust up against him, emitting a growl from him.

"I take that as a no." He growled, throwing her legs up so her ankles rested on his shoulders, and began to thrust inside her at a fast pace. Moans, groans, and gasps were all that left her mouth, and she found it hard to keep still as she neared something. A feeling was building up inside of her and she found that she needed to reach the end of it or she'll go mad. Her head tossed side to side, her fingers grasping desperately at the sheets as Sebastian picked up his speed, the bed beginning to creak from his movements.

"S.. Sebastian! Ahh! I'm... I'm!" She couldn't find the right words as that building heat finally reached its climax, a half-scream half-moan leaving her mouth as her body tensed; her pelvis arching upwards as Sebastian continued thrusting inside her mercilessly. He felt her inner walls tighten around him, convulsing as a rush of warmth made it easier to slide inside her. He was close.

Sakura collapsed onto the bed, her skin flushed and covered in a light sweat, but still Sebastian kept up his pace. She couldn't take anymore, and as she tried to get him to stop, he came, filling her with his seed. The feeling sent her reeling. The last thing she felt, and saw, was Sebastian collapsing on top of her.

When I awoke -was it minutes or hours since I passed out?- I was under the covers of my bed. There was a presence behind me; a warm, solid comfort that told me he had not left my side after we made love. I felt his arm tighten around my waist as he pulled me close, and I smiled. Genuinely smiled with the happiness I felt.

I twisted myself in his embrace so I faced him, and as I did, I met the warm, loving gaze of his ruby eyes. We were both unclothed, but I didn't care. It felt much better to be able to feel him, skin against skin.

He leaned towards me, his lips brushing against mine in a tender kiss that left my lips searing. We broke the kiss and I cuddled up to him, my cheek pressing against his firm chest. He was so warm, so comforting and so... Sebastian, that I felt sleep tug at me once again. But as my eyes drooped, I felt his lips press against the top of my head as he said six words that sent my heart soaring.

"I love you, Sakura. Merry Christmas."

I was able to reply, just as sleep claimed me, a smile plastered to my lips.

"I love you too, Sebastian. Merry Christmas."

A/N: Oh em gee. That took me so long to write LOL. Now I know I dragged it out a bit, but I didn't want to rush in to the whole lemon part D: I tried to mention everyone at least a few times, with Sakura and Sebastian being the main two people. But, even so, I really hope you liked it! My first attempt at a lemon went quite well I think. Not too graphic and not too boring xD

If there's any errors it's because my MS Word decided to be a dick, so I wrote this whole one-shot in doc manager on the site :[ Forgive me!

R&R!

Merry Christmas everyone!

Much love~
