Chapter 2

"Wake up! Wake up!"

Someone crawled into Ciel's side of the bed. He was small and warm and his tiny hands were tapping Ciels shoulder.

Ciel opened his eyes. "What's wrong, little feller?"

Alois had a big smile on his face. "Look outside! Look outside! It's snowing!" He jumped of the bed and ran over to the window and pulled back the curtains.

Ciel yawned and put his feet on the floor. Then he dragged himself over to the window. Outside little snowflakes were falling from the sky.

Ciel couldn't help but smile at the sight. "Yeah, it's pretty, isn't it?"

Alois smiled and ran out of the bedroom. And Ciel just looked at him; at the little boy still wearing his pyjamas, so happy and innocent. Almost.

Ciel got dressed and walked down the stairs. When he was halfway he could smell something sweet and delicious. Pancakes.

He walked out in the kitchen where Sebastian was cooking. When Ciel came in, he turned his head and smiled at him.

"Good morning, sunshine," he said and kissed him on the cheek. "Do you have the day at home today?"

"It's Saturday today, so yes, of course." He sat down by the kitchen table. "Have you seen all the snow?"

"Oh, yes. Alois seems very glad that it's here." He smiled at the thought of the little kid running around in the garden with pyjamas on, playing in the snow.

"Yeah, he really does." Ciel smiled too. "It's the 24th tomorrow, you know."

"Yeah, I know."

"I was wondering if we three should do something together?"

Sebastian thought for a moment. "That's a good idea, but what?"

"I haven't quite figured that out yet," Ciel mumbled.

"You were hoping that I've got an idea?" Sebastian teased.

Ciel nodded.

"Well, I've got one."

"What then?" Ciels asked.

Sebastian walked to him and whispered something in his ear.

"Mom! Dad!" Alois came running into the kitchen and jumped into Sebastian's arms, who picked him up. "I want to play in the snow with you!"

"First you have to get dressed," Sebastian said. "And then we have to eat these pancakes you made me do."

Alois came down to the floor again and ran out of the kitchen and into his bedroom where he started to get dressed.

"Dad!" Alois yelled after a few minutes.

"I'll handle it, if you turn off the oven in two minutes." Sebastian was about to walk out of the kitchen when Alois yelled again.

"No! I want dad!"

Ciel's heart stopped. He had never in the five years that have been, helped the little boy getting dressed.

"Good luck." Sebastian smiled and blinked at him.

Ciel slowly walked out of the kitchen and up the stairs to Alois' room.

Alois sat on the bed with his face covered in his shirt. "Dad?"

"I'm here." Ciel couldn't stop himself from smiling at the sight. He walked over to the five years old boy and pulled the shirt down over the boy's face. Alois' face got free and he smiled to him.

Ciel helped, with difficulties, Alois getting dressed. After they were finished they went downstairs to the dinner table, where Sebastian had set the big table.

Ciel sat on one side of the table, Sebastian on the other side and Alois in the middle.

"Mom, it's Christmas Eve tomorrow, right?" Alois asked Sebastian.

"Yes, it is," Sebastian answered.

"Does Santa then come tonight?"

"No. Remember that you get your presents in the morning, the 25th?" Sebastian said.

"Oh... yeah." Then he looked at Ciel. "Does Santa then come tomorrow night?"

Ciel looked at Sebastian and then at Alois. "If you've been good, he will."

"I've been good, right?" Alois asked both of them.

"Of course, you have," Ciel said.

Then Alois got sad. "No, I haven't... I set the oven on fire..."

Ciel could see that he was about to cry, so he stood up and walked over to his son. Then he gave him a hug. "You've been the greatest child ever since you were born. And Santa knows that. Of course he will come to you with your presents."

Alois lightened up and started to eat his pancakes cheerfully. Ciel went back to his seat.

After a moment of silence, Alois stood up.

"Can we play now?" He looked at them with sparkles in his eyes.

"Sure, why not?" Sebastian said with a smile to the little kid. "Why don't you and dad go out and start, and then I'll come out to you when I've cleaned the dishes?"

"Okay!" Alois ran out in hallway to get his shoes and snowsuit.

"Why? I don't want to play in the snow," Ciel whispered across the table.

"Because it's good to be around your kids. And he wants to get to know you a little better and to play with you. So please do it. For your kid's sake." Sebastian looked certain on him, but with a little smile on his lips.

"Fine." Ciel stood up and walked out in the hallway to get dressed, and to help the child get his snowsuit on.

"No, I'll do it myself, 'cause I'm a big boy," Alois said, when Ciel was about to help him get in the snowsuit.

"Alright." Ciel took his own shoes and jacket on.

"I'm ready." Alois stood up and took his arms out to the side, so that Ciel could zip it for him.

Out in the garden the snow was already ten centimetres, so Ciel walked carefully so he wouldn't get snow in his shoes.

"Come on, dad! Why are you walking so slowly?" Alois yelled, when he was over at the other side of the garden.

"I hate snow," Ciel mumbled so Alois couldn't hear him.

"Well, I love snow," a dark voice said.

Ciel turned around and saw a tall man with a big black hat on standing behind him. He was in a long black coat and his silver bangs covered his eyes and almost a long scar that covered his face.

"Hello, Undertaker," Ciel greeted. "The little feller here, made me go out in the snow. What about you? What are you doing here?"

"Ku ku ku," Undertaker laughed. "Well, I just wanted to go for a walk, and then I thought to myself; why not visit my favourite little blonde one." He made a pause. "And of course his parents; the demon and you."

"How nice of you." Ciel looked at him for a little moment, and then looked at Alois who was about to make a fort.

"Well well, who do we have here?" Ciel's favourite male voice said.

Sebastian was walking toward them behind Undertaker. He walked to Ciel and placed his arm around his shoulder.

"To what do we owe the pleasure?" Sebastian asked Undertaker.

"I just wanted to visit the little blonde one, that's all."

"Well, no need to leave you hanging, if you're in a hurry," Sebastian said, and he called at Alois before Undertaker was able to make a protest. "Aloooiiis!"

Alois ran toward them and stopped when he reached Ciel. "Undertaker!" Then he jumped into Undertaker's arms who lifted him up.

"Ku ku ku! Hello, my little friend, and merry Christmas! I brought you a present," he said, and put Alois down on the ground.

He took something from his pocket and gave it to Alois. "Now, I didn't manage to wrap it in, so you can't wait till Christmas morning, but here you go."

Alois opened his hand and saw a little handmade coffin made in wood. "Wow, thanks Undertaker!" he said and gave him a hug.

"Ku ku ku!"

Ciel and Sebastian glanced at each other when they saw the gift, and then at the boy and Undertaker again.

"Undertaker, do you want to come in and maybe get a cup of coffee or some cake or something?" Sebastian asked.

"No thank you, Sebastian, I got to get going. But this was nice, and merry Christmas everyone!" Undertaker shook Sebastian's and Ciel's hands, and then messed up Alois' hair, before walking away.

"Do you like your gift from Undertaker?" Sebastian asked Alois.

"Yes, very much!" he said glad. "But now I want to make my fort. Do you want to help me?"

"Yes, I do," Sebastian said. "Maybe dad could keep your gift save while we're making it?"

Alois looked at the wood-made coffin, and then handed it to Ciel. "Okay."

Ciel looked at Sebastian and Alois while they were playing in the snow and thought to himself, that he got everything he needed and wanted.
