A.N- Sorry about not posting. I was working on a surprise. A gender swap Oneshot! Everything is explained in the chapter and will be up soon. Its just a Oneshot so I won"t be posting anymore of chapter's if it. (at least not at the moment…) Anyway, here's chapter 11. Hope you like it!
(Sebastian's POV.)
After the mess in the foyer was cleaned up, I got back to cooking. It didn't take long to finish, but seemed to make me even more tired. So tired that I couldn't help but slouch.
I tried my best to look fine in front of the Master. Which worked for a while, but ended quickly.

"Dinner is served." I said with a bow, leading Ciel and Elizabeth to the dining room.
I settled them, pulling out their chairs and pushing them in once they sat. I then set the food before them.
"Tonight I have prepared smoked salmon and a side salad, freshly picked and dressed with a homemade ranch dressing. Along with Master's favorite Earl Grey tea." I explained.
I stood near as the two started eating.
"I always love your cooking Sebastian!" Lady Elizabeth cried happily. "Thank you Lady Elizabeth." I replied. But after saying that I started to feel something. I was growing warmer and warmer by the second. And soon I was wondering weather or not my face was flushed.
Soon they finished eating and I served desert. But to save my voice I didn't explain what I had made. (As it was just a simple chocolate cake.)
"Something wrong Sebastian?" Ciel asked suddenly. I felt a sinking feeling at the question, but still I kept calm. "Nothing at all Young Lord." I replied with a bow. "Really? Because you usually explain what you made." He stated. "Yes, well I didn't think I'd have to explain that I made chocolate cake." I replied. "Are you feeling alright?" He asked. "Fine Lord." I choked not wanting to lie. "Don't lie to me!" He shouted suddenly. I then knew I was found out.
He then pointed to his side. "Come here!" He demanded. I did as told and came to his side. "Bend down!" He demanded again. I again did as told.
First he slapped me. "I thought I told you not to lie! It's obvious your still sick!" He cried.
Then he brought his hand up to my forehead. "What happened to 'My fever is gone and won't be coming back?'" He asked. "Your warmer than ever!" He cried. "My Lord…" I tried to reply, but a wave of nausea suddenly came over me.
"Ciel, he went pale!" Elizabeth cried pointing to me. "Sebastian?" Ciel said waving a hand in front of my face. "Hello?" He asked.
I quickly stood up and ran to the nearest wastebasket. I collapsed in front of it and again started getting sick.
"Sebastian!" I heard Elizabeth cry.
This went in for several minutes, and the whole time I felt more and more guilty. I felt horrible about showing such weakness in front of a guest.
And soon it stopped.
"Tanaka!" Ciel yelled down the hallway left of the kitchen. Tanaka soon came running down the hall to the Master's aid.
"What's wrong Young Lord?" He asked sounding a bit scared. "Help Sebastian up to his room and get rid of that wastebasket!" He demanded. "Yes, Young Lord." He replied.
He first got rid of the wastebasket, and then helped me up.
"I-I'm sorry Young Lord." I stuttered tiredly. "It's fine!" Ciel replied sounding a bit angry.
Tanaka helped me up to my room again. "I thought I told you to rest! As did Master." Tanaka scolded. "I know…" I sighed. "I should have listened." I claimed.
X_X
Tanaka got me settled in bed. And shortly after Ciel entered my room.
"Sebastian?" He whispered as he entered. He saw I was laying in bed and walked in. "How are you feeling?" He asked. "Okay for now? I guess…" I replied. "What's going to happen now? I'm assuming it'll be about the same." Ciel asked. "Kind of my Lord." I replied. "What do you mean?" He asked.
"Do you remember when I first got sick how I told you about the peak of my illness?" I asked. He nodded. "I'm surly going to hit my peak soon." I stated. "I see…" Ciel sighed. "How long do you think this second draft will last?" Ciel asked. "Another month." I replied. He sighed but continued to listen.
I explained a bit further on my illness. But exhaustion took me over.
"I'll be…over this…in… t-time." I stated sluggishly, starting to dose off. "Are you tired Sebastian?" Ciel asked. I nodded. "I'll leave then. Get some rest." He whispered.
Right before he left I felt something climb into me and curl up beside me. I looked to find my cat that had been placed on my bed by the Master himself.
"Feel better soon, okay Sebastian?" He whispered as the door slowly closed.
Soon after I found myself slowly dosing off.

I woke up in a daze, hearing a loud noise.
I sat up, wrapping the blanket around my shoulders and almost upon instinct, I stood and headed over to my doorway. Then I opened it and looked out.
"Young Master?" I said slipping into the hallway.
*BANG* "There it is again…" I whispered to myself, walking toward the noise. *BANG* "What the hell is that?" I asked slowly making it down stairs.
The noise grew as I got closer, killing my aching head.
"Who would be making so much noise at such an hour? Isn't it about midnight?" I asked myself walking to the area the noise was accruing.
As soon as I made it, I was (annoyingly…) greeted by a very loud shriek.
"OH DEAR BASSY!" Screamed the creature who was now tackling me in a hug.
"What the hell are you doing here Grell?!" I asked, my voice elevating with every word. He pointed a finger to his cheek and backed from me in a girly manner.
"Coming to see my Bassy…" It (is he/she a girl or boy?) replied quietly. "I am not yours!" I shouted, but the yelling threw me into a coughing fit.
"Oh Bassy! I had no idea you were sick!" He cried sadly. "Yes… now leave." I sighed as the coughing stopped. "No!" Grell shouted. "I'm going to take time off of work to nurse you back to health. Oh, it'll be romantic! Your skin shining from sweat as I give you a sponge bath. And afterwards you'll want to cuddle to help with pain! Oh Bassy, our love is so beautiful!" Grell babbled, fantasizing. "That won't happen! And not it isn't!" I shouted feeling my eye start to twitch.
"Sebastian! What are you doing up? And what is that thing doing here?" Ciel asked running up, alarmed by the noise that Grell had previously made.
"Seems, Young Lord, he's come to see me…" I sighed feeling very annoyed.
Ciel let out a large gasp as he came to the corner we were standing in. We then found how Grell had gotten in. He had tore a huge whole in the wall, thus explaining the loud noises.
"What are you really doing here Grell?" Ciel asked. "I was ordered to get the soul of someone in the area. I believe the name was Brianna Thomas. A young wife of a clerk. She's been kidnapped and was about to die. I had some time and decided to drop by. Aren't I sweet Bassy?" He asked. "Not at all…" I sighed placing my face in one of my hands.
"My head hurts…" I whispered. "Poor Bassy! I'll help you! Maybe a kiss will help!" He cried tackling me again. "Get off of me!" I yelled as my breathing rushed. But my exasperated breaths were cut off and a familiar feeling arose.
I quickly pushed the thing off of me as I clasped a hand over my mouth.
"Bassy?" Grell approached slowly, stretching a hand to try and help. I slapped it away and collapsed to the ground, trying to breath through the feeling.
But it wasn't working, and soon I could feel the liquid from my stomach arising and trying to force it's way out my mouth. And after a (what felt like.) long battle with nausea; I found that I had lost and ended up getting sick on the floor.
Upon this, Ciel immediately ran off to get Tanaka, leaving me with Grell and my pain.
X_X
This time seemed longer and more painful. Breaths were hard to acquire, and gaging seemed more intense.
But soon it stopped and I sat almost in disbelief that I had just gotten sick on the floor in front of Master. I know it should be the same as if I were getting sick into a wastebasket, but what if it leaves a stain? It be disrespectful to Master. And plus it's not like me to make messes, even if it wasn't my fault.
I gulped as my breathing became normal again.
"B-Bassy? Are you okay now?" Grell asked. I nodded slowly still looking down in disbelief. He looked grossed out and shocked. "I think I'll be going…" He whispered slipping out through the whole in the wall and disappearing into the night.

"Mr. Sebastian!" I heard Finny cry. I turned to find Tanaka and the rest running to my aid. "Meyrin, go get some towels and a bucket of water. Finny and Bard help Mr. Sebastian up to his room." Tanaka ordered.
Ciel turned to me as the two servants helped me up. "Where's Grell?" He asked. "H-He left…" I whispered. Ciel looked relieved. "Good… Now that that's over. Take him to his room." Ciel ordered.
I was glad to go, and as soon as they had me settled I found myself again dosing off. And was soon off to sleep.
To Be Continued…
