Chapter 2

Sebastian was in the kitchen, preparing the young Lords' breakfast. 'I hope he feels better today' He sighed in concern first, but then opened his eyes in horror "What was I thinking? I don't care. Demons do not care!" he subdued a growl in his throat.

' I have to keep back from Ciel. I am not allowed to feel anything in this direction.'

He put the tea set and the fresh baked scones on the tea-cart and made his way to the Earls chambers. He was sure that Ciel was still asleep, but he knocked in order of manner. "Enter" He was surprised to hear his masters voice. He opened the wooden door gently and entered "Good morning Bocchan." Sebastian noticed that the Earl was already dressed and ready. But for what? "Morning Sebastian." He responded monotonously. "I see you're already dressed Bocchan. Would you like your breakfast then? I prepared Earl Grey with baked Scones you like so much" He smiled but could have slapped himself. 'Get it together demon! You are not some teenager in love, he doesn't care what I bake or what I think he likes' His face always a mask. He stepped closer to Ciel but stopped in his tracks when the Earl spoke "No thank you Sebastian. I do not care for breakfast this morning. Just a cup of tea." "But my Lord, you have to eat-" Sebastian was stopped half sentence "No Sebastian. I really don't want to eat this morning. You don't have to worry" 'Why did I say that? I am so stupid' The Earl scoffed lightly at his own behaviour. "Yes my Lord" His butler sighed. This morning was so awkward. Both of them could feel the tension. But his butler wanted to break the silence between them. 'Why is he already dressed? And in his best clothes? He doesn't even wear that when Miss Elizabeth comes to visit. Did I miss something today?' He just had to ask. "Bocchan, may I ask, why are you already dressed? It is still so early." He stated while handing him his cup of Earl Grey. 'Why does he care so much this morning? He baked my favourite scones as well... something seems odd. Time to play a game' the Earl thought. "Is this outfit fitting me Sebastian?" Ciel looked up with this innocent smile. The butler almost blushed, even though he had seen it so many times but never was it addressed to him. He examined him closer.

His trouser was black, this time he wore no shorts, a white shirt that was slightly transparent and a blue jacket that flattered his left eye and his blue ashy hair. His shoes were still in front of his feed, seems like he hadn't finished his task yet, his tie has been missing as well. "Well, yeah young Lord. It fits you well." Finally, Sebastian found some words. He took the tea from Ciels hands, he finished already. While the butler did that he saw that one button of his shirt was still open, exposing a little bit of his smooth porcelain skin. "Bocchan, you forgot a button" He informed the boy but was hit back with a respond "No Sebastian. It's like that on purpose." Ciel looked inside a mirror and styled his fluffy hair.

'Ciel, that looks kind of... naughty' The butler smirked at his thought. "Why is that my Lord?" He felt curiosity. "Because an important guest is visiting today and I want to give him the best hospitality" He smiled when his hair was perfect. He returned to his bed and slipped into brown elegant shoes. "What?" Sebastian didn't want to believe his ears. He walked over to the window and pulled the curtains away, to let the morning sun inside. It shined on the young Lord, he was more attractive than ever. "You heard me. He is one of the best employees I have for the Funtom company. I know him personally already, he was close to Vincent." Ciel explained, but the word close was sharp spoken. Sebastian had to think. 'Who was Vincent?' "Then I'll begin preparations soon my Lord" "I have to prepare myself as well Sebastian. You're dismissed" The butlers' eyes were glowing now. 'what did he mean with prepare? What is on his mind?' Sebastian was... jealous. No other word to it, he could put two and two together. It was the masters' own body. He could do with it what he wanted but... He gritted his teeth and bowed as he left the room. 'All right, that was unusual. What is that feeling inside of me? Why am I so jealous? He was so attractive in that lightly exposed outfit. This thought never crossed my mind until this morning. What is he going to do with that pig from Funtom? I am getting angry already. Perhaps he was just messing with me? I have to find information about Vincent. Right, it was his father, Vincent Phantomhive. How could I forget something that important to Ciel? Okay, get it together demon!" Sebastian walked to the kitchen to prepare everything.
