Thanks for all your reviews! It's very encouraging! XD here's chapter 2! Oh and school is reopening for me tomorrow, so maybe I'll have to update less often ): I think softball is going to have me half dead almost everyday from now on… anyway, enjoy!
'Bocchan, it's time to wake up now.'
The blinding light that Sebastian had let in by whipping the curtains away from the window pooled over Ciel's bed. He turned over with a small groan as the covers were gently ripped from his still sleeping body.
'Bocchan, for today's breakfast I have prepared Jackson's Earl Gray, and for refreshments, it is your choice of blueberry scones or chocolate muffins.'
Ciel sat at the edge of the bed, dangling his legs over the sides as he accepted the cup of fragrant tea from Sebastian. 'Chocolate muffins.'
'You have a long day ahead of you, Bocchan, you should prepare yourself.' A flash of fluorescent violet crossed Sebastian's crimson eyes as he offered a smile.
'Yeah. Get on with your work.'
Sebastian's smile widened as he got down on one knee and placed a hand over his chest. 'Yes, my Lord.'

'Bocchan, it's time to wake up now.'
Light splashed across Ciel's bed sheets and his eyes snapped open. One eye shone with the Faustian contract while the other rippled with a fluorescent violet before fading back to its normal bright sapphire.
Sebastian wordlessly handed Ciel a teacup. Bocchan, it's your favorite Earl Gray. The words caught in his throat, creating an impasse with his pride and his fiery longing to respond to his Bocchan's desperate eyes. He found then himself an excuse. The cup is empty anyway.
Ciel took the cup and for a moment his fingers brushed against Sebastian's gloved ones. Incomprehensible pain and wanting crashed within him like waves against a lonely shore. 'What's my schedule for today?' he asked uselessly. Why will you not speak with me like before?
'Bocchan has nothing on today.' Sebastian replied quietly, not meeting the eyes of whom he was conversing with. Just like everyday since you have transformed into one of my kind.
Ciel remained at a loss for words, until he could no longer take it. 'Get on with your work.' Seeing you avoid me like this cuts me into a million pieces.
Sebastian knelt on one knee and placed a gloved hand over his chest. 'Yes, my Lord.' He wanted to break out of the binds his pride had tightened over him. He wanted to smile. He wanted to give his Bocchan just a small smile to help him, even if not much, have a better day. But in the end, he surrendered to defeat.
He got up, turned around, and walked out of the room, closing the door quietly, leaving Ciel sitting at the edge of the bed, staring after him.

Bocchan,
Please just provide me a little more time.
Just a little more.
Your faithful butler,
Sebastian Michaelis
x.o.x.o.
Sebastian,
To me, I feel as if you are getting further and further away from me with every single passing day. However, I am still looking forward to the day where you will smile before complying with my orders, just like before.
I might sound like a spoiled brat, but still this is what I will continue to hope for, since, I am a thirteen year old boy after all.
I will wait for as long as eternity shall last, just to see you be Sebastian Michaelis, my butler, once again.

A/N: okay chapter 2 is done! I'm sorry if it sounds a little emo, and not as well done as chapter 1. I wrote this running a high fever of 38.8 degrees, so, please forgive any mistakes! Please review!
