Author's Note: I cried in the middle of school because of this stupid chapter. I am so done with this story and the paIN I AM GETTING BECAUSE OF IT.

"You did what with my boyfriend?!"

The scream drew everyone's attention, even those who were outside. Ciel didn't care; he was too busy fuming with rage. He looked over Joker's shoulder to a startled Grelle, who's mouth was open slightly with shock.

"I thought you knew," Joker responded, drawing Ciel's attention back to him. The boy grit his teeth as the redhead continued speaking. "I'm so sorry, Ciel."

Ciel rolled his eyes. "You're sorry? You fucking slept with my boyfriend." He pushed the male, glaring daggers at him. "You can't be fucking sorry. That's not fucking allowed." Ciel wasn't a violent person, but shoving him again felt so good. As he was about to raise his fist to punch him, he heard the source of his problem shout his name. He turned around and met the gaze of Sebastian.

Their eyes locked on one another and Sebastian knew what was going on almost immediately. He walked closer, reaching out a hand to run down Ciel's cheek, but the slate-haired boy dodged him. "Don't fucking touch me," he hissed, turning around and storming off, grabbing Grelle's hand and pulling her with him.

Once they got up to her bedroom, he slammed the door shut. "He cheated on me," he said suddenly, looking at his best friend. Grelle pulled him into a hug, squeezing his body. "How could he do this to me?"

"Don't let it get you too down," she whispered soothingly, running her hand up and down his back. Ciel laid his head on her shoulder and felt the shock finally leave him. His knees buckled out from underneath him, as if a thousand bricks had suddenly fallen on his head. A river of tears fell from his eyes and he was suddenly a sobbing mess on Grelle's floor. He pressed his knees to his chest, crying into them. "Ciel, don't do this," he heard Grelle whisper. She got down on the floor beside him and ran her fingers through his silk-like hair. "It's your birthday."

Another sob bubbled into his throat and he looked up at her. "Our relationship was seventeen years in the making and he threw it all away for a night of sex," he yelled, glaring at her. "I love him, Grelle. I could care less about my birthday. The man I'm in love with cheated on me. I can't just get over that."

Grelle sighed and placed a kiss on his hair. "I'll send him up," she whispered tenderly before standing and exiting the room. She leaned against the door, taking a deep breath. This wasn't good. Sure, a year ago she would have been thrilled about all this. A year ago, she had would have laughed in your face if you told her Ciel Phantomhive would be her best friend. And yet, now she felt like crying right along with him. Ciel didn't deserve this, especially not from Sebastian. The boy had been through too much over the last year. He'd been raped, physically and mentally abused by Alois Trancy. He was due in court over a sexual assault charge. Even she had given him shit. Ciel didn't deserve for the love of his life to treat him this way.

She pushed off the door, chewing her lip as she slowly walked back down the stairs. The whole group was sitting there and they all looked up at her with sad eyes. She took a deep breath and smiled dejectedly. "Sebastian," the redhead whispered, making him stand. "Ciel wants to see you."

The ravenette nodded and began to trudge up the stairs. He felt like they were all glaring at him. All his old friends from high school - Bard, Finny, Meyrin, Lizzy, Will, Ronald, Grelle - were looking at him with such scorn and disdain. As if calling him a disgrace, calling him out for his deception. He made his way up the stairs, feeling like an outcast in his own group of friends.

When he reached the door, he debated on knocking or just walking in. He pressed his forehead against the door and sighed. "Ciel," he called quietly, pain making his voice waver. "Ciel, baby, talk to me…"

The door opened and he made his way inside, finally seeing his boyfriend. He shut the door behind him and really looked at him. Heterochromatic eyes were red and puffy from crying, nose running as if he had a terrible cold. His lips were swollen and the bottom lip was busted, making Sebastian think he had been biting them in his anger like he normally did. His cheeks, ears, and neck were all the same shade of scarlet, showing off his embarrassment. He opened his mouth to speak, but shut it instantly.

So Sebastian would have to go first. He stepped closer, earning two steps back from Ciel. He felt his heart shatter slowly, as if he were made of glass and someone was taking a hammer to him. "Ciel, let me explain."

"Don't," he said faintly, his voice sounding too far away to his own ears. "I can't-" He looked down at his shaking hands and put them under his armpits. "It'll make it seem more real."

Sebastian shook his head and held his ground. "Ciel, this needs to be said. I still love you." He felt tears well in his eyes. "This last week has been amazing and everything we still have. Don't let this news ruin this last week or the week we still have together."

Ciel's eyes came back up and locked on crimson ones. "Don't let it ruin the fake memories you created with a boyfriend you had already lost?" he said, his voice cutting Sebastian like a sharp knife slicing through butter: too easily. "You can't stand here and tell me you still love me when you haven't told me about this. It happened over a month ago. You slept with someone else and didn't tell me, Sebastian. There should be no reason to forgive you for anything from this moment on." His eyes narrowed slightly and fresh tears closed up his throat. "You should've thought about the consequences of your actions before you cheated on me. Like I did." He shook his head. "I was priding myself on not cheating on you with Freckles."

Sebastian tried to interject, but couldn't find the words. He realized the mistake he had made, especially now, seeing Ciel crying in front of him. "I love you," was all he could bring himself to say.

Ciel's eyes turned into a glare again. "Get out. And don't come back this time. I never want to see your face again."

Sebastian couldn't feel a thing, but somehow his body moved. He left the room, he shut the door, he climbed down the stairs, he said his goodbyes, he left.

He left numb.

Ciel stood up and left the room, he shut the door, he climbed down the stairs, he acted happy. He had fun. He danced, he ended up drinking, he talked, he met new people. It was like his whole body was on fire, feeling everything.

But nothing felt… right.
