So, how about we all just ignore the fact that I haven't updated in a month now shall we? I lost all my work for this story about 3 times, and you would think I would learn my lesson after the first time but no. Oh well, it's finally here and I think it turned out alright, I hope you do too. And thanks for all the reviews and alerts I've been getting! It makes me so happy to just know people are reading this. I'll shut up now since I know you have been waiting a while for this chapter!
I do not own Kuroshitsuji.
But I do own this story.
On with the show...

If you press me to say why I loved him, I can say no more than because he was he, and I was I.

Sebastian's POV
I looked down onto the small form that was wrapped in a towel in front of me and my mother. Ciel, I told you to wait there.
"Ciel.." I started, worry present in my voice.
"OH-HO-HO. So this is the human that you are clinging to I see. And he's a child, are you even sane Antony?!" She sauntered over to the boy who was still splayed over the ground, his face a bright red.
Crouching down to his level, she grabbed his chin roughly, pulling his face up. I could see him wince under her sharp nails digging into his skin.
"Don't you dare touch him, Mother!" I said growled angrily, dashing over to Ciel and crouching protectively over him.
"You do not tell me what and what not to do, you ungrateful son." She hissed back at me, until her attention went back to Ciel. "Though I must commend you, what a beautiful meal he must have been. Delicious indeed." She breathed in near his neck, I could see Ciel twitch with anger at being handled like that.
I pulled him back into me, so she was no-longer touching him. She looked down at her hand wear she had grabbed him with a chuckle.
"Bitch… I have a name." He said between clenched teeth.
"Hah! Really, I would take the time to find out something like that about a creature such as yourself, only in your dreams, Delicious." She said with a grin identical to my own.
"You filthy whore!" He shouted and tried to break free from my hold only to be held against me even tighter.
"Ciel, language." I said sternly to the boy in my arms. "Even though you may no-longer be an Earl or living for that matter it does not make it any less improper. And Mother, I implore you do not provoke him anymore. He doesn't have much restraint when it comes to being teased." Gesturing to the boy still writhing in my arms to get at the women in front of us.
"That may be, but I am merely trying to warn him of all the dangers he is now facing. Is that so wrong of me?" She questioned slyly. "I mean really, there are ones who will kill a human with that blink of an eye around here. And they are everywhere I assure you, not to mention the Coun-"
"Mother!" I cut her off once I realized where this sentence was going.
"Ahaha! I see you haven't told the little one here about them, your Grandfather would be disappointed. How delightful, this is!" She giggled obnoxiously at the new fact she learned. I cursed her in my head.
"Sebastian, what is she talking about?" Ciel began to ask me.
I have to think of something. I can't let him know about this yet. Yes, we have to wait. What to say?
Luckily, my Mother filled in the silence that was coming from me, "You should be upset, Delicious, your demon here seems to have been neglecting some important points in staying here. How about I give you a hint?" She leaned in close to Ciel, so her mouth was just by his ear.
"You are in for an even worse Hell, Delicious." Her hot breath hitting his skin, making him scowl and forget what they were talking about. Letting his emotions take over him.
"Ciel…" I started, but his face was already growing dark.
"WHAT THE HELL DO YOU KNOW?!" He finally exploded, Making me cringe for a second.
Oh my, where is he going with this?
" Sebastian and I made a promise to each other, a contract, saying that as long as I am in existence he will stand by my side and protect me. This promise was strong enough to leave a mark of it on both of us. To always remind us. No matter what happens. As long as the one stays so will the other."
Taking in a shallow breath, "I suggest to begin to understand this:" He paused to look at my Mother straight in the eyes.
A eerie grin slowing forming on his face as he tilted his head to the side.
"I'm not going anywhere, anytime soon." And with that he turned around in my arms to face me and silently place his lips onto my own. For a moment shocking me, but than smiling against it.
I forced myself to pull back to acknowledge the now shocked women who was looking from me to Ciel.
"Well, you see how it is. What will you do now?" I asked with a smirk present on my face. Thoroughly enjoying the less than composed version of my Mother in front of me.
"To be honest, I must say, I have never seen you this attached to anything, Son. It is quite different for me to witness you like this. " The devil-women got back up to her feet, and brushed off her clothes, looking back down on me still holding Ciel from behind.
"I hope you understand though, I will never accept this. You have shamed us. That being said, I'm not sure what else I can say here to persuade you. It seems your bond maybe a little too strong. How unfortunate."
She paused to look Ciel in the eyes. "Don't forget my words, Delicious. If I were you I would stay very close to that demon of yours."
She then vanished within a cloud of black feathers.

"Forget her canter, Ciel, she was only trying to scare you." I spoke after dressing Ciel in his now clean outfit.
"It's easy to understand that, but there must have been some truth behind her words, no?" He spoke with some hesitance.
Hmm, seems like this is affecting you Ciel.
"I wonder is Ciel perhaps scared?" I questioned back.
"O-Of course not!" He stuttered turning his face away.
I restrained my urge to laugh my wrapping my arms around his slight waist, "You have no need to worry, it like you said as long as you are in existence I will stand by your side and protect you."
Without a pause, I brought my lips down to his fully. Moving them so they molded against Ciel perfectly. He froze with shock, not responding at first but soon fell deep into it. Both of us moving at the same pace.
I pushed him back so he was laying down with me over him. Our kiss becoming more intense. I let my tongue prod at his lips, asking for entrance. He quickly replied by letting his mouth open just a bit, but enough for me to allow me to start exploring. Our tongues running over each other, twisting together.
His small arms found their way around my neck, making me grin. I ran my hands through his midnight blue strands, making him moan.
I pulled back suddenly, leaving one last peck on his forehead.
"Eh?" Ciel questioned at my withdrawal. His face was a bright red.
"I think that may be enough for now, we should be happy that these things we have been feeling are now out in the open. It's much more comfortable, ne?"
He nodded hastily, avoiding my eye contact. I smiled down at him.
"Well, we still do have a lot to be done today. Since we were interrupted by that devil woman we are quite behind schedule. One thing she was right about though is that many people will not accept you. But that's just something we will have to overcome correct?" I asked whilst smoothing out my standard black uniform. I think I have gotten to use to wearing this, I might be attached to it.
"I suppose." He said quietly.
"Good then, shall we be on our way." I extending my hand to help him off the bed. Which he promptly ignored by jumping down by himself.
Hm, well he is certainly becoming more independent.
Just as I thought that, I felt a hand intertwine it's finger's with my own.
I looked down with my eyes wide to Ciel's looking hard at the floor. He noticed my gaze,
"It only because I no longer have my walking stick, so it's just to keep me up straight. Nothing more, so don't be ridiculous." He said still not looking up at me. A smirk appeared on my face.
"Very well then, I'm happy either way." I spoke giving his hand a little squeeze.
"Baka, let's just go already." And he started walking towards the door ahead of me but still clinging to my hand.
"Of course, Ciel." Looking at him from behind. And we then both made our way out of the house.

The journey to the Main Strip in my town was a long a torturous one.
Long because the actual distance wasn't close by.
And torturous not only because of the heat for Ciel, but the heated glares and whispers that were being shot at us. Even to the point of Mother's covering their newborns eyes. Yes, it was obvious Ciel wasn't from here. I could clearly hear what others were saying, and I'm sure they weren't trying to hide it either.
"See those two holding hands over there; the smaller one is a human. Apparently their bond was strong enough to keep them together even after death. How disgusting."
"Isn't that Lucianna's son who disappeared?" "Yeah, he returned with that human boy." "How horrid! You must pity a Mother at time like this."
"I can't wait until the Council get's to those two. It's despicable just to see them here." "Isn't the black haired one's grandfather part of the Cou-" "Hush! they are coming right this way"
I looked down at Ciel to see what he was thinking, but he face was just as stoic as ever.
That's right, Ciel should be used to this. After being the son of an Earl, then becoming one yourself within a few years he would know what it's like to have eyes on him by now. I remember walking down the streets of England, a Master and Butler were always such a sight to see.
"Sebastian?" Ciel pulled me out of my thoughts.
"Yes, Ciel?" I asked.
"Do demons here really have no restraint with their harsh words?" He looked up at me. His eyebrows were scowling.
"Are they perhaps annoying you?"
"Of course not, but really. Everyone can hear." Ciel replied.
"Well, I suppose that's just how we Demons are. No restraint." A smile playing on my lips.
"No, that's wrong. You have perfect restraint. I would know better than anyone."
"I'm not like other Demons, Ciel. I think we both should being to understand this." And it was true. I was nothing like any of the other's that reside here. None of them would be able to do what I have with Ciel.
"That is right." He said back confirming it with what little knowledge he knew about us Demons.
We kept on walking it silence for a while until I heard Ciel speak up again.
"Sebastian, what is this Council I keep on hearing about? First your Mother, than these random Demons…" He muttered.
"What makes you ask that?" I questioned. My eyebrows pulling together a bit. What is bringing this on now?
"I just keep on hearing people whispering it likes it's some sort of secret. I'm not sure what to think." He ran a hand through his hair in thought.
Can't hide it from him now, I suppose.
"Ahh, and I was going to wait a little while longer before telling you." I started looking up to the purple sky.
"Tell me what, Sebastian?" He tugged on my hand.
"Well, basically they are a bunch of stuck up old Demons who are power hungry. They enforce the few rules we have here. It's not like Shinigami who have endless books filled with many restrictions and regulations. They are the closest thing we have to government here. If you can even considered it that." To me all they were were 1000's year old Demons who had nothing better to do with their time but boss around the lesser ranks.
"Let me guess, one of them is your Grandfather." He said out of nowhere.
"What? How did you know that?!" I stopped walking to turn at look at him.
"Your Mother." He replied with a straight face.
That Bitch!
"I should have guessed." I wonder if Ciel can take anymore surprises.

Well there you have it folks, Chapter five, finally completed. If you were wondering why I chose that quote it's because I felt like if Sebastian's Mum asked either of them why they loved each other, I feel like that would both be their response ^_^ Can we all just say "awwwwhhh"
What will happen next? Who exactly is the Council? Will Ciel and Sebastian every get their groceries?! Find you next time on Your Heart, Your Life, Our Soul. But srsly leave a fucking review first xD
Love,
