Ciel rested his hands quietly. After solving the case he had just been given, the 13 year old boy had nothing to do with his life yet again. It was yet again a beautiful and sunny day outside, yet he knew being the head of the Phantomhive estate and owner of the Funtom company, he could definitely never ask to go 'play outside'.
The bluenette had the usual frown on his face, looking at a book he had already read more than 5 times. His eyes skimmed over the pile of papers he had checked not just twice, but three times.
He had even gone and fixed his signature a couple times, until it looked more fancy and drawn out.
Yet this didn't cure his boredom, in fact, it did nothing. Working was the only way the young boy could truly keep his mind occupied. He didn't have much of a life outside of signing papers and solving cases. So, when the rare free-time comes around, he had no way to spend it.
But a knock on the door snapped the boy out of his lazy trance.
"Young Master? Can I interest you in some food?"
The voice that seeped into the room was low, yet very graceful. Only one human being- or should I say creature- could have a voice like that. And of course Ciel could recognize it anywhere.
"Come in, Sebastian." The butler opened the door with a small "excuse the intrusion" slipping past his lips, before coming to place in front of his master's desk.
"Deliver these to the senders." Ciel thrust out a organized pile of papers in his direction, resting his elbow on the desk. The butler's face showed a small amount of shock, before taking the pieces.
"My, Young Master, you've already finished this week's work?" A slight smirk painted itself onto his devious face, taunting Ciel. The bluenette gave him a hard stare.
"On top of things as always I see. Would you perhaps like to go to town? Check in with the detectives? Shop for new things? Maybe that could cure your boredom."
Oh, how Ciel wanted to rip that smile off of his face. A servant, talking to a master in a degrading manner?
"Don't forget where you stand. Know you're place, demon." A small chuckle left the taller man's lips. How interesting...
Alois sat in the smooth white tub, blowing the clear bubbles off of the top of the water. Platinum blonde hair stuck to milky white skin, dripping with water.
He patiently waited for the other man in the room to gather the bottles that were aligned across a counter. He watched as the butler moved back and forth, taking first a black one into his large hands, and next a green, and it went on and on.
Putting his elbows on the rim of the bath, Alois sat up. Water rolled down his bare back, and bubbles flooded from his skin into the water.
Finally the butler turned around to meet eyes with his master. The blonde gave his a slight smirk, before turning around.
Claude brought the many substances to the edge of the tub, picking up a sponge beside it. As the man leaned over the side, the clear landscape of Alois' bare back sunk into his eyes. He was used to the image though, since they partook in this exact routine almost every evening.
He grabbed the scrubber that was regularly used and poured the concoction of soap and essences over it.
In little circle motions the soft skin of the blonde was quickly covered with bubbles, down to his tailbone. The butler was very good at his job and did an equally amazing job putting up with the blonde menace on a daily basis.
The blonde jumped in surprise as the scrubber stayed in one place and almost rubbed his skin raw. "What the hell do you think your doing?"
Claude pushed up his glasses before replying, "I'm sorry your highness."
He gave the butler a cold stare before turning over once again to allow him access to his back. The same routine, again and again.
"Hey Claude?"
"Yes Your Highness?"
"Can we go to town today?"
The butler shot his young master an inquisitive look. "What ever would you need at the town's place?"
The blonde just crossed his arms in a defying manner before he answered back, "I don't know, I'm just looking for a change of pace here."
"Then we will set out right away Your Highness."
The carriage containing a certain bluenette rolled along the cobblestone roads, passing the windows of many stores that were either opened or closed. He bounced quite a bit in the back seat which was quite unpleasant, yet he held back a complaint.
It was only a matter of time before the two carriages would in fact cross paths, and blue eyes would soundly meet. Though he didn't realize it yet, that moment was one of the most crutial in Ciel's lifetime.
