Author's Note
ARHARHAR. I am on holidays for 4 weeks. c: So now I can FINALLY GET THIS TO YOU GUYS! Also, chocolate cream oreos are yummy and Resonance of Fate/End of Eternity is a wonderful, beautiful game. Even if Cardinal Pater is a little weird…
Song recommendations are; ANTI THE∞HOLiC and BitCrushe. Why are vocaloids and UTAUloids so awesome?
Anyway…

Something was up. Ciel could feel it in the air in the mansion. Plus Sebastian acting nice was a big tip-off, and the young man just knew he was planning something. Ciel was determined not to fall into any traps, however, and so he had remained as distant as possible over the past few weeks, though as easy as that sounded, the blue-eyed man had found it quite hard. He often found delicious-looking pastries and the like on the counter for him after Sebastian had gotten home and had gone off to work on some things in his study, but Ciel had suspected they were laced with something, so he threw them out. It was a shame to let such nice treats go to waste, but the young man figured it was better than letting Sebastian win.

On this particular night, the younger man had gone to sleep quite early, and Sebastian was a little thankful for that. Goddamn, he knew Grell had advised him to be gentle, but that didn't really help when Ciel wasn't playing along! The dark-haired man frowned, glaring down at the paperwork he had to do, and sighed, frustrated. It was too hard to even think about work when there was an adorable man sleeping in his house! Sebastian's frown deepened and he went out to the living room. Maybe some TV would help him calm down.

Ciel woke the next morning and wondered who the hell was in the house. A quick check of the clock on the bedside table told him that Sebastian wouldn't be awake. Hell, he shouldn't even be awake; it was 3 in the morning! With a groan, the man made his way to the living room with the cricket bat he'd bought to fend off any sudden "attacks" Sebastian had in store. Warily, the young man entered the room and was quite relieved to see that it was just the television. He looked at the couch and smiled a little at the sight of Sebastian asleep, despite himself. It was strange to see his captor look so calm and peaceful, and to be honest, Ciel found it nice to actually look at the man. Normally the assassin kept himself hidden until he was sure the man was out of the house, or at least in his study.

'I hope he doesn't get a cold,' Ciel murmured to himself, deciding to get a blanket for the man. Not because he was worried or anything, hell no! He just didn't want Sebastian to get sick; the man would be at home whilst he was recovering after all! With the reassurance that that was definitely the reason he had covered the man with a warm blanket, Ciel returned to bed.

Sebastian woke with a start from a sudden noise from the TV that was still on. Had he slept on the couch all night? Well, that would explain the horrible crick in his neck… The man sighed, rubbing his eyes and he turned off the television before throwing the blanket off of him and standing up. Wait, blanket? When the hell had he got a blanket for himself? The man smiled to himself warmly, realizing that it was Ciel who had retrieved it for him.

Ciel groaned as he awoke once again that morning. At least it was a reasonable hour; 9 a.m. The blue-eyed man smiled a little; he'd had an hour-long sleep in. Maybe waking up at random hours of the night for a few minutes wasn't so bad… Ciel got out of bed, feeling quite happy and he headed down to the kitchen with the smell of bacon wafting towards him.

'Good morning,' Sebastian greeted him, making Ciel jump and cover his chest, feeling quite exposed. He was only wearing sleep pants as he hadn't expected the man to still be home.

'Why are you still here?' he asked, backing away, looking at the man suspiciously.

'I made you breakfast as a kind of "thank you" for bringing me a blanket last night. It's probably the reason I'm not feeling ill this morning. Anyway, I have to go to work; I'm late. I'll see you this afternoon,' Sebastian smiled, and it made Ciel relax a little. He wouldn't drug food if he wasn't going to be there, and the man wasn't sick. Yes! That's three good things for today! Ciel cheered internally.

'Uh… thanks. See you later,' he replied as Sebastian left. Maybe the guy wasn't so bad after all.

Sebastian's mood was good all day. Ciel had actually said something nice to him, even if it had just been "thanks". And clearly the younger man was opening up to him, if only a little. Why else would he have brought him a blanket during the night? The black-haired man decided that maybe being nice to him wasn't so bad after all, even if it did take longer.

P.S.

Yeah! That's another chapter down guys. Awww… But I have something planned for the next chapter! Oooo, what could it be? Hahaha. Now I have to call my cousin and wish her happy birthday.
