"Yeah, After a few days that is...Just health reasons and such.."

With that his Father walked out of the ward. "Mum?"

"Yes, sweet heart? Is something troubling you?"

"How long was I out?"

"Th-…Two years…"

"I see, That long.."

The days passed quickly as the doctors cleared their doubts, and deemed Ciel free to go.

It had just been two days in the Manor, nostalgia filled the corridors. Every day he grew better and healthier.

Relatives and associates frequently visited the house. Ciel often overheard his father talking with the guests; one particular conversation got him interested.

"Vincent, you've let yourself go…"

"Oh, those are the pleasures of being married and having a child…" He said chucking.

"But why? Why didn't you try for another child?!… you and Rachel are still in your prime you know!"

Ciels heart broke. Why didn't they?

A loud whack echoed through the house. "Don't you dare speak about my family with your disgraced tongue!"

Vincent walked towards the door, which was when he saw Ciel, tears streaming down his cheek.

"Ciel, I-"

"Why, Dad,"

Vincent put his arms around Ciel. "Ciel, have you any idea how long I've waited for you to call me Dad" He said wiping away Ciels tears." Now then, young man. I want you to go tell Tanaka to prepare a cab for Count Harrison. And remember, men don't fib over silly things…"

"Yes, dad!"

He informed Tanaka. He walked down the corridor, as he heard a familiar voice; Feminine, sweet and proud. He ran to the source to the voice came from. He opened the door to the hall. There she was, a young teenage girl with emerald green eyes, golden-blonde hair. Seated beside her, an older woman, with her blonde hair in a tight bun.

"Oh, Ciel, What a pleasant surprise!" exclaimed Elizabeth

Her mother nudged her slightly asking her to maintain her decency.

Ciel walked toward his father and sat beside him.

"I think we should leave them alone for a while, Frances."

"Yes, that would be delightful.."

"Now, you behave, young man." Vincent said ruffling Ciels hair as he got up.

They were alone. Ciel sighed.

"So...um… Ciel...Long time no see…"

"Yeah…"

"Not that I didn't visit you in the hospital or anything, it's just that I haven't seen you a-"

"Lizzie, I get it…"

"It has been really long…Ciel...Too long…"

A question pestered Ciels mind, the same question that troubled him before…

"Why. Why didn't you find someone else?"

Ciel didn't have the courage to look Elizabeth in the eyes.

"Nonsense, Ciel… why would I go after someone else when my favorite fiancé is still alive?"

"Favorite, you mean I'm not the only one!?"

"Of course Ciel, you're the only one for me…At least for now!"

They both chuckled it out. That's what he loved about her.

Someone had immediately opened the door. A young man with short, golden blonde hair and emerald green eyes like Elizabeth walked in.

"Edward!" exclaimed Elizabeth.

"Ciel Phantomhive, I do not care if you're engaged to my sister, nor what you've gone through. I still do not, I say, do not oblige of you marrying her…"

"Edward, don't say those kinds of things…" said Elizabeth calming him down.

"Future brother-in-law or not…"

And so went the conversation with the Midfords.
