"So then I should get white roses mixed with red?' Alois asked writing down the instructions on his paper.
"Yes. You can line the isle with them, the vases from our bonding are still in your attic, we didn't bring them with us."
"already, I'll take Naveen up there and see what we can find."
"Good, actually while you're there, get everything you can and next time you come over, bring it with you,maybe we can still use it." Ciel said as Angelina began to growl angrily.
"Angel isn't very happy today I see."
"She needs a nap, she just won't take it. I can't expect her to with everything going on."
"Lenora always goes to sleep when I hold her and pat her, she such a sweet baby."
"Until she grows up and follows her mother's footsteps."
"You're one to talk, look at everything you did."
"I was a perfect-"
"And I'm the bloody queen." Alois shot back.
"Well, that would explain why you had everyone call you 'your highness '
"I hate you sometimes."
"That's alright, there's times I'd like to strangle you, so I guess we're even." Ciel replied.
"You know what Ciel -"
"probably." Alois glared at his cousin.
"You're glare doesn't scare me."
"Jerk."
"baby."
"spoiled brat."
"lunatic."
"Look in the mirror."
Rachel and Rowan tilted their heads
"Mum is Playing with Alois?"
"He must be, he does that with daddy all the time. We should play too."
"Okay, I don't know what to say sister Rachel, I do not want to make you sad."
"It is alright brother Rowan, we are only playing. I will start. Cranky!"
"Baby."
"meanie."
"Big head"
"Big nose"
"human!"
"Children, what on earth are you doing?" Sebastian asked sternly.
"Playing like you and mommy, he is playing with Alois, we wanted to play too. See, Big feets."
"Uncle Mordred!" Rachel gasped and lowered her head.
"That hurts me brother Rowan, it hurts my tiny heart." Rowan stared down at the floor.
"Sorry Sister Rachel, I will hug you." He said as Rachel leaned into him sobbing.
"That's enough now children, only grownups can play that game,I never want you to say such things to each other."
"yes, we will not do it again. I forgive you Brother Rowan."
"Thank you sister Rachel, I'm so happy you do." Both children hugged Sebastian's legs.
"We are sorry Daddy,will you please forgive us?'
"My dear children, I certainly will." He patted their backs gently.
"Dad loves us,he loves us very much."
"Yes, he his the beat daddy I have!"
"The best one, I was under the impression that I was the only one you have." Sebastian said.
"You are,but you are still the very best one I have." Sebastian shook his head.
"Rachel, you are you're mother's daughter."
"Yay!" Sebastian had to laugh at the response.
"Am I mum's too?"
"Of course, you are you're mother's son." Rowan grinned.
"So vases and flowers by the end of the week then, I'll see what I can do. I'll check what's up there and let you know." Alois said calmly.
"if you need to, you can always take a trip to the manor and get them from the garden."
"And I can get some red ones from the trancy manor I suppose."
"Don't do it if you're not comfortable going there,we'll change them if we need to." Ciel replied following him out of the room and staring at the two children still attached to Sebastian's legs.
"What's this all about?"
"We were playing but then I was sad and daddy came and then we captured him." Rachel giggled.
"So now you've captured me, whatever shall I do?" Sebastian feigned distress. This only made the children laugh and sit down on his feet, holding tight to him.
"it looks like you're in trouble now Sebastian, I don't know how you'll get out of this one " Ciel played along.
"Sometimes it helps to walk and think of a way out of a situation, perhaps I shall have no choice but to attempt it." He began to walk around the room slowly.
"Daddy, you cannot do that,you are captured."
"Do what?" He stood still looking down at the children.
"go around and around, you have to stay still to be captured.
"So then I'm not permitted to do this?" Sebastian began walking again, faster this time.
"No Dad, that is cheating." Rowan declared.
"Cheating you say, and what if I do it anyway?"
"We will tell mum and you will be in trouble." Rowan replied.
"I'm certain your mother wouldn't -"
"Try it and find out, I dare you. You might be their father but no one does anything to my children ." Ciel warned.
"Then perhaps I had better behave myself. Your mother just might have something to say about it."
"Yes because we are just babies." Alois smiled.
" You have an interesting family." The blonde commented.
"You have no idea."
"I'll be off then, have fun." Alois waved to the children and left
"Will Alois get the pretty flowers?" Rachel asked hopefully.
"I hope so. But if not, we'll try something else."
"Or we can simply get married without flowers." The children gasped at their father's suggestion.
"Mommy has to have flowers,you are in trouble Daddy, now you are captured forever!'
"I can't possibly, your mother will -"
"You're on your own Sebastian, you should know better than to deny your daughter pretty flowers." Ciel smirked and began walking away.
"Ciel, come back, please, tell them what you told me yesterday about the wedding , they-Ciel!' The young demon disappeared into the hall.
"Damn. Very well children, however, if I am not permitted to move, I cannot make cookies with you this afternoon.
Rowan and Rachel looked at each other.
"Okay daddy, you can make cookies but you are still captured." Sebastian sighed and began walking to the kitchen, his son and daughter holding onto him the entire way.
