A.N- Okay, so you all remember how mean I was to Bassy right? Well, it's going to continue… I'm sorry, but I can't resist. Putting Bassy into more pain makes him seem more weak which makes him cuter right? Right? I'm sorry, the torture will end after this chapter. I promise. (Maybe…) Hope you like chapter 5!

They continued down the bumpy path.

Ciel was still smiling a smug smile when he noticed something. Because they changed their path to a bumpier one, Sebastian was constantly getting sick. (Which meant they had to stop a couple times to empty out the wastebasket.) And because of this the stench in the wagon was becoming unbearable.

Ciel then started to regret his actions, because by making Sebastian suffer he made himself suffer also.

Ciel had Tanaka stop the wagon in a small village so they could maybe find a new path to their destination. And also so the wagon could air out.

Sebastian too wanted to get of the wagon because he was getting warmer by the minute. So he weakly sat against the wagon and tried to cool down.

Suddenly Sebastian felt something brush against his hand. He opened his eyes and looked down. (Here it comes!) Sebastian spotted a friendly cat nudging his hand.

Sebastian weakly placed a hand on the cat and slowly caressed it's soft fur.

"So perfect…" He whispered tiredly. The constant getting sick had left Sebastian feeling very tired.

The cat climbed into Sebastian's lap and fell asleep; it's comforting warmth slowly putting Sebastian to sleep.

But right as he was about to nod off he felt a cough come on. But this quickly turned into a coughing fit, which he hastily muffled with his arm so that he wouldn't disturb his new cat friend.

Once the coughing subsided, he again returned to petting his new friend. But it was short lived.

"Come on Sebastian. We're going to leave again." Ciel called to the weak butler. Sebastian sighed and pushed the small cat off of him.

He unsteadily got up and climbed back into the wagon. And soon they were off.

The new path that Tanaka and Ciel had chosen was much smoother. But there was a problem with it. It was much longer that the current path they were on. So now it was going to be morning before they got to their destination.

Because of this Tanaka suggested stopping at an inn that was located in the village they were in currently. Ciel agreed and they quickly stopped again.

"What are we doing Young Lord?" Sebastian asked hoarsely. "Stopping to stay at an inn. It'll be dark soon and Tanaka can't see well in darkness." Ciel replied.

X_X

Ciel checked in at the front desk buying a two room suite.

The first room had two beds in it and the other had one.

Tanaka took everything they had packed (With a little help from Ciel.) and brought it to the rooms. While Ciel (hesitantly) helped Sebastian up to their room, where they put him in one of the beds in the first room.

Tanaka would be staying in the first room as well to take care of Sebastian at night. And then Young Master would take the second room with the single bed.

X_X

Hours pass and it becomes late. Ciel lays down in a bed for yet another night without Sebastian saying goodnight.

He didn't realize it but he missed Sebastian hissing a goodnight to him. He had gone two weeks without the butler's services.

In all that time Sebastian just got worse and worse. He never even showed a sign of feeling at lease a bit better.

Mr. Smith's words suddenly came up in his thoughts. 'Do you at least have medicine for him?'

Ciel had forgotten of that. He had meant to talk to the sick butler about it but kept putting it off in his mind.

Was there even such a thing as flu medicine in hell? There was no telling, not until he talked to Sebastian about it. Maybe he would recover faster with some.

As Ciel thought he felt himself growing more and more tired.

(Ciel's POV.)

The next morning I woke up to a familiar smell, Earl Grey tea.

I opened my eyes, at first I thought I saw Sebastian but when I rubbed my eyes I soon saw it was Tanaka.

"Good morning Young Lord." Tanaka smiled. "How's Sebastian?" I asked. "He's still sleeping. I'm going to let him until we are ready to leave." Tanaka replied.

He handed me a cup of tea. "I didn't know you brought my favorite tea." I said sniffing the strong tea. "Well, you seemed worried so I brought it so you'd feel at home." Tanaka replied.

As I sipped the tea, Tanaka undressed me and dressed me in my daywear.

"Have you made breakfast?" I asked. Tanaka nodded. "It'll be ready in a moment Young Master." He replied.

When Tanaka finished dressing me, I went into the first room.

X_X

When I entered I saw Sebastian sitting up in his bed. He had out a handkerchief, and was using it to cover the sneezes that were to come.

I sat down at the table that was set up in the room. After a moment of waiting, Tanaka started to set food in front of me.

I tasted it, but it tasted dull compared to Sebastian's cooking. Everything Tanaka made was dull compared to Sebastian made, no everything Tanaka did was dull compared to Sebastian.

X_X

No one in the room talked, all you could hear was the noise of Sebastian sneezing. It felt very awkward.

When I finished eating we proceeded on the trip.

Tanaka again took everything out and put it on the wagon.

X_X

The thoughts from last night lingered in my mind.

"Sebastian…" I started looking at my demon.

"Yes, Young Lord?" Sebastian asked with his eyes closed. "Are there any types of medicine for the Demon flu?" I asked awkwardly. "Yes… But nothing you could get Young Lord." Sebastian replied. "Did you bring any with you when you left hell?" I asked. "No…" He replied.

"Why didn't you?" I asked. "I didn't think I'd need it." He replied. "Are you an idiot? Isn't there always a chance for demons to catch the flu?" I asked. "It's very rare my Lord." He replied.

I sighed in defeat to Sebastian.

"Your worried aren't you Young Lord?" Sebastian asked suddenly. "No! I just don't like having to drag you along, you should be working!" I said averting my eyes.

Sebastian laughed slightly. "You never change do you Lord?" He asked sounding amused.

That was the first time I heard Sebastian laugh while sick. Maybe he was feeling a bit better today!

But right as I thought that I heard him moan.

I looked at Sebastian, he had again grabbed the wastebasket and was getting sick.

When he was finished I noticed something. His face was drenched in sweat, his hair clinging to his skin, and he was breathing heavily.

This was probably normal for him while sick, but every time I saw him the past two weeks, he was laying in his dark room. I could never see him well, so this was the first time I really saw how bad his flu was.

After he finished he turned over and covered his head with his hands, trying to keep light away. He was was shivering and looked to be in a lot of pain.

I wanted to do something for Sebastian but wasn't sure what.

I looked out the window of the wagon, going through my options of how I might help Sebastian. But nothing seem to fit.

As we went along I noticed something. There was a cat following us. 'Wait, is that the cat Sebastian had yesterday?' I asked myself.

Knowing of my butler's love of cats, I decided on what I'd do for Sebastian.

'Maybe I could distract him from his illness. But then would he get attached to the cat? If that happened he'd ask to keep it!' I thought. 'I'll decide that later…'

"Tanaka stop for a moment." I instructed to my other butler. Tanaka did as told and stopped the wagon.

"Did you need something Master?" Tanaka asked. I shook my head as I got out of the wagon.

I waited until the cat was closer to touch it. It pounced up to my feet and rubbed against them, purring softly.

I picked the feline up and took it into the wagon.

"You like my butler don't you?" I asked it right before getting into the wagon.

When I stepped in I saw that Sebastian was still in the same position as before.

"Sebastian…" I whispered. He turned to look at me.

As soon as he saw the cat in my hands, he looked surprised.

"Did you find that cat for me Young Lord?" Sebastian asked. I nodded. "You were suffering, I figured this might distract you." I replied. "It is the cat from yesterday right?" I asked. He nodded sitting up.

I placed the cat in his lap as he started petting it.

Sebastian had a look of complete surprise and astonishment on his face as he played with the cat. (Please don't take that the wrong way…)

The look of Sebastian happy soothed me. Hopefully he'd be back to himself soon?

To Be Continued…

A.N- Awwww… Ciel got a kitty-cat for Bassy. I thought it would be cute if I added that in. I hope you all liked it. I just can't get enough of Bassy and his love of cats. But Ciel in POV seems vulnerable in my story doesn't he? I also made him worried for his butler. I think that was cute too. Did you? Anyway, I'll see you all later. Please Review!
