Restless.
Neither of them can sleep. Both of them are lying awake, texting each other about how cold it is in their room or how they're pretty sure they can see demons outside their windows.
Sebastian is already asleep, and Ciel is doing his best to make sure he doesn't wake him up. Although he's getting bored, and he's considered waking Sebastian several times now just so that he isn't as bored.
Then, he gets an idea.
Sitting up quietly, he grabs some shoes and his phone charger. He stuffs his charger in a bag and silently shuffles into his shoes. The window couldn't be too hard to climb out of, he thinks, but it's still risky. When he thinks about it though, the bathroom window would be a lot easier, so he tiptoes to the bathroom.
He's about to climb out when he realises, he'll need to let Sebastian know he's gone out, goddammit. There's some of Lizzy's lipstick on the counter, and he figures it wouldn't hurt if he used some of it. He uses it to write a quick "I went to see alois, be back in the morning x" and then climbs out of the window.
He and Alois are still texting as he walks, and he hasn't told Alois he's coming because he wants to surprise him when he gets there, so he's texting him as if he's still lying in bed. They're talking about school and movies, and Ciel is telling Alois about his intense hatred for romance movies.
He almost forgets he's walking outside until he bumps into a bin, and realises he's at his destination already. He's about to knock when he realises that Luka is probably asleep, and if he knocks he'll wake him up. Alois probably has his phone on silent though, so he thinks calling him will do.
He looks up to the bedroom and sees a light and some shadows, and it looks like he almost gave Alois a heart attack.
"Ciel? Why are you phoning me? Is there something wrong?"
"No. I'm outside, though. Lemme' in before I freeze to death." And there's some shuffling that he can hear from the other boys room, and soon the door is opened and Alois is bringing him up to his room.
"Why couldn't you sleep?" Ciels asks him, and Alois just shrugs.
"I was restless, I guess. Same for you?"
Ciel nods, and they sit for another little while and talk about random things, and what movies they need to watch next time Alois stays at Ciel's place. Eventually they tire themselves out, and they think that they might be able to get some sleep now.
But Alois doesn't want Ciel to leave. Partly because it's dark outside and he's worried about him and partly because he's had fun tonight and he wants Ciel to stay here with him. And he does, so they both decide to declare the 'no homo' rule, and snuggle together in Alois' small bed.
Neither of them have slept so peacefully in a long time.
