To Sebastian's dismay, Ciel had been bathed and fallen asleep almost as soon as his head had hit the pillow. As he blew the candles out and left the room, he ran a hand back through his hair. This vampire problem was going to be problematic, if his master was going to continue to be curious about the Kiryuu man. His eyes glimmered in the darkness, possessiveness showing in his gaze. He'd be damned if he was going to let Zero take his master's innocence. He blinked, smirking lightly. He made a pun without intention. He shook his head, moving back down the hall to the room where he had left the vampire hunter.

"Pardon me." he spoke before rapping his knuckles on the door twice. The door opened and Zero stared back at him. Sebastian bowed lightly, keeping to his position as a butler.

"If Bocchan's guest can not sleep, may I offer to bring you something? Tea, perhaps?" he asked the silver haired man. Zero gazed back at him with hard, cold eyes, and Sebastian felt a little thrill go through his spine. How interesting would it be, if it came to a battle with this man.

"Sure. Sounds good." he finally replied. Sebastian bowed at the waist again, turning to head to the kitchen. He could feel the eyes on him before hearing the door close, vanishing down to the kitchen instantly with a slim smirk. He worked quickly and quietly, so as to not rouse the others, and had the tea prepared in no time. He appeared at the door again with the tray, though it was opened before he could knock. He was a little surprised, though he didn't let it show as he pushed the tray into the room.

Zero waited for the butler to return, listening intently for the footsteps. He was at the door before the knock, opening it wide for the man. He waited until he was in the room before closing the door, gazing at him as he stepped closer. He would have to be cautious, there was no telling what this.. creature.. could be.

"Sugar? Milk?" the butler asked him, holding a teacup in one hand and pouring the tea with the other. Zero kept his eyes on him.

"Bit of both." he muttered his reply, watching the perfection with which the man moved to drop in a couple cubes of sugar and pour in a bit of milk. He watched him stir the tea for a moment before holding out the cup toward him. Zero slowly took the cup and saucer, glancing down at the liquid for a moment before glancing back up. He watched Sebastian placing things back in their spots on the tray as he sipped at the tea. He blinked in surprise. It was actually quite nice, even though he couldn't place the flavors.

Zero continued to watch Sebastian move around the room as he waited for him to finish with the cup. Once he had finished the tea, he felt drowsy. Maybe it was the milk in it, or possibly something that had been added to the tea itself. He didn't know, and frankly didn't care. He handed Sebastian the cup and saucer, again watching him place them on the tray in perfection. He narrowed his eyes slightly.

"Why does someone like you serve a kid like Ciel?" The words were out of his mouth before he could think about it, gazing off a bit at the intense look he was given. Sebastian stepped toward him, instinct causing Zero to back away until he was against the wall. He gazed hard at the man, trying to read through that sly smirk.

"It's a secret.." the butler said at last, one eye closed as he raised a finger to his lips in a shushing motion. Zero blinked, clearly displeased with that reply.

"Whatever it is you're planning, it won't work. You know as well as I do that Ciel is interested in me." Zero growled with teeth grit, instantly recognizing the smirk after a while. It was that same look that Kaname had given him several times. He hated that look, that gaze that said the person was planning to do sexual things. He glowered at the demon, eyes narrowing sharply as the man gave a bit of a laugh.

"I'll make sure that Bocchan is 'well fed' before he realizes those feelings, though, Mr. Kiryuu. He won't be able to think of you then." Sebastian countered, that same smirk lighted on his face. Zero watched him turn and push the cart toward the door.

"Bastard. He's just a damn kid!" he spat after him. He heard the butler chuckle again as he left and shut the door behind him, a thin scowl forming on his face. Yeah, he could tell when someone was interested in others. Something was sending off warning bells in his mind, though, and he knew he'd have a hard time sleeping tonight.

Next Morning

Ciel tossed in the covers, nightmares haunting him. He whimpered in his sleep, the forms of several men bending over him and taunting him, violating his body and soul. He yelled out quite loudly, sitting bolt upright with gun in hands. He breathed raggedly and unevenly, eyes wide as he stared at unseen enemies. His attention shifted to the door at the sound of a knock, blinking a bit as Sebastian moved soundlessly into the room. He watched his butler for a moment before sighing and dropping his hands. He slid the gun back to its place under his pillow, shifting to the side of the bed.

"Good morning, Bocchan. I've fixed you some strong black tea, as you didn't get enough sleep last night. Once I've dressed you, I'm sure your guest would love the company." the demon said, a bit of sarcasm in his tone. Ciel looked at him quizzically for a moment as he watched him pour the tea, wondering what he meant by 'love the company'. He shook it off, though, as he sipped at the tea and allowed the butler to undo his shirt.

"Once you're finished, Sebastian, go make sure Mr. Kiryuu slept well. I want him to have the best service we can offer. Show him that the Englishmen have manners to treat their guests like-"

CRASH!

Ciel blinked, gazing over at the door. He was half dressed, shorts and shirt with his stockings, but he stood anyway. Sebastian followed as he moved out into the hallway and down to where Zero was left. The door was ajar and Ciel poked his head in. Of course, Meilin had broken something when she had been in the room. Though seeing Zero helping her pick up the glass as she fumbled over her apologies was something.

Zero sighed as he sat up in the bed, gazing down at the floor. He stood and moved over to the window, watching outside for quite some time. Constantly, he could see a blond boy moving through the garden. Was he the gardener here? He shook his head and turned back, moving over to the bed to pull a bag out from under it. He opened the zipper and pulled out fresh clothes. Yes, he had the bag with him when he had been brought here, and it only carried the necessities. He was just finishing buttoning his shirt when the woman came into the room.

"Ahh, ahh! Pardon me, sir! I came to change the water for you!" the maid stuttered a bit as she spoke, the overly large glasses on her face making her seem comical. He moved out of her way to allow her access to the basin on the vanity, watching her fumble several times. She kind of reminded him of Yuuki, in a sense, and he couldn't keep back the small smile that formed on his face. It was quickly replaced by surprise as he saw the jug in her hands slipping from her grasp.

"Oi, watch ou-"

CRASH!

The maid dropped the jug, the container smashing against the carpeted floor and shattering into several pieces. She began to apologize several times, getting on her knees to start gathering the glass. Zero sighed and knelt down with her, helping her gather the smaller bits.

"Hey, you should calm down a bit. Be a bit more careful, you know?" he spoke lightly, a sympathetic look on his face as he handed her the glass. She apologized again, spoke a quick farewell, and headed for the door. Zero stood slowly, gazing at the other two in the doorway.

"Sebastian-sama! I-I-I.." the maid stuttered.

"Go ahead, Meilin. Please hurry back to clean up the water before it stains." the butler spoke quickly to her, and shooed her away. But Zero wasn't really looking at Sebastian. His gaze was on Ciel, who looked like he hadn't even had time to get the rest of his clothes on. Actually, he looked quite feminine and childish as he stood there with that amused look. Zero gazed off.

"Well good morning, Mr. Kiryuu. I apologize for Meilin's antics, she gets excited easily." Ciel spoke, crossing his arms lightly, "And I also apologize for my appearance. I was worried you might have been hurt, so I hurried out before Sebastian was finished dressing me." Zero's gaze snapped to the butler, eyes narrowing lightly.

"Ah. It's fine." he muttered a reply, sighing. He gazed back to Ciel after a moment, taking in his appearance once more. To tell the truth, the kid looked kind of cute. Zero frowned to himself, mentally shaking his head at that thought. Clearly, he was still tired and wasn't thinking right.

Ciel watched Zero for a long time, curiosity pulling relentlessly at his mind. He shook his head a bit and smirked. He was going to have fun talking with Zero, he was almost positive of this.

"I suppose I should finish readying myself, ne?" he said with a bit of a laugh. He watched Zero gaze off quickly, and it only made Ciel smirk wider.

"I'll meet you in the lounge, then, Mr. Kiryuu."

"Oi. You can just call me Zero."

"Hm? Ah. Alright then.. Zero. Call me Ciel, to be fair, and I'll see to it that Sebastian shows you to the lounge quickly." Ciel turned gracefully, heading back to his room. He let Sebastian finish dressing him, and he sent the butler off to show Zero around.

"Zero, huh?" he mumbled to himself, gazing at his reflection. He smirked, heading for the door with cane in hand. He was right. This was going to be fun.

A/N: I realize some of you probably hate me for making a fic like this. I haven't gotten any reviews yet, or anything, but I'm going to say ahead of time that I don't do well with flamers. I'm hoping that I get the personalities somewhat right, and I hope both VK and BB fans will enjoy this.. somewhat odd relationship that Zero and Ciel will have. xD

I also apologize for the constant POV switching. I find it better to write like this, sometimes. Please deal with it, and if it gets too difficult to understand in the future - I will add names as to whose POV it is at the time. HRT!
