A/N: Alright, I have decided that I'd turn this into a series of OneShots that goes through Ciel's life as he grows. They will all be AU and as always I will own nothing but the plots.
As the birds outside the window chirped, the suns rays shining in and beating down relentlessly upon the young boy's face, a sudden and soft groan escaped into the otherwise silent room around him. He wanted nothing more than to bundle up under his covers and snuggle into his sheets. His black feathered friend should've closed the curtains and thus a question came into his mind as to why he had forgotten? His friend almost never forgot unless he was already in the room and getting ready to wake him up.
Throwing his covers back, he reluctantly sat up and raised his arms over his head in a stretch. After he had rubbed the sleep from his orbs, he then slowly let them flutter open only to come face to face with a pair of striking crimson ones. His tiny mouth slackened in the slightest and only closing as his friend flashed a simple smile at the younger males expression.
"It is not polite to keep a slack-jawed expression, my Lord. It is time to get up and start the day."
A small huff was made on the boys part, his little arms crossing in front of his chest as he turned his head to the side childishly. That was just like him to do so and the elder had to remind himself that he was still a child being only eleven years of age. Turning on his heel and heading to the tea cart that was placed a few meters away, the male grabbed a tea cup already filled with the delicious aroma of that mornings tea. As he handed it to the boy and left to grab the days clothing, he spouted off that days schedule.
"This mornings tea is cinnamon with a splash of honey and for breakfast there will be a simple platter of flapjacks and eggs with your choice of scone, toast or muffin. Which would you prefer, my young Lord?" Nimble fingers had taken off the nightshirt that the boy was wearing only to replace it with an elegant and ruffled dress shirt and a pair of black pants to go with it. Grabbing a pair of black socks and slipping them on the boys feet, the elder placed the shoes on less than a few minutes later.
"Muffin. What's on todays schedule, Sebastian?"
"This morning, Mey Rin will be teaching you how to shuffle a deck of cards before playing a game of your choice. Later this afternoon, Bard will be letting you accompany him in the kitchen as he makes the days lunch and dinner." Sebastian laughed at the look on his young Master's face before continuing. "Don't worry, he'll also be making some dessert and you get to help him with that as well. I may even slip in and help as well." The boys face brightened considerably at the idea of getting to make some of his favourite dishes with his favourite friend and protector of all. "This evening, Finnian will be teaching you how to plant some new trees and flowers out in the garden and then it'll be time for bed after that."
As the boy listened to Sebastian lay out the days schedule, he couldn't help but to smile and squeal internally. He loved Sebastian, he really did and it showed quite obviously. However, it'd change when he went out into the world, as expected of an Earl of course.
"Sebastian, why are you so cool?"
A light chuckle was heard from the said man as he had been standing beside the bed.
"I am merely one hell of a protector, Ciel."
A/N: As always, let me know what you thought and I shall see you in the next bit soon.
