Last time:

Mahogany eyes met an azure one. The very unique color that his former lover used to have. The depth of blue he loved to stare into. However, the other eye was purple. The same shade it used to have after his lover met him.

"No… It…"

"Yes it is. I am here. Alive."


Present time, 1.53am

"Ciel..."

The said male smirked. Mischief shining in his eye. "What's wrong Sebastian? Missed me?"

Hand tightened around the blue-eyed male's neck. "You... Ciel is not alive. He's dead. You are an imposter aren't you?" Jaws clenched, eyes blazing. "Get out of Ciel's body, demon. Face me as your own form," he growled.

The blue-haired male exasperated sighed. "I'm Ciel. Can't you recognize me already? That's true… It's been four years since my announced death." This resulted in the wall beside him to break. Small pieces of bricks flew, some hitting his face. Ciel could feel the force of the punch that was next to him.

"Ciel. Is. Dead. He. No. Longer. Lives. Demon, stop trying to find my weakness," hissed Sebastian, punctuating each word. They both locked gazes. Ciel never grew tired of those eyes. Deep, bright red. Burning stares and the heated glances they shared before all that had happened were now gone. What was left was the emotion of wanting him dead.

I guess Sebastian didn't read the letters. Either that or he never accepted it. Ciel thought. It's too late… but… Ciel never finished his thought as Sebastian's kneed him in his abdomen.

"Oomph… Seb…asti…an, you…" Ciel muttered, groaning in pain. His voice sounded so much like…

Those crimson eyes narrowed. This can't be.

Oh yes. It can.

The male's aura and scent, both just like his former lover. The traitor. His betrayal. The shock and the pain he had caused. But his former lover was proud, and cold. Cute yet seductive. Just like this… adult, he was taunting Sebastian in a way Ciel would.

"Ciel's dead. Never is he going to come back. Not as a human, not as a demon. What do you know about him? About me?" Sebastian spat into the other's face.

Glazier-like orbs widened for a split second before they return to their original state. "Everything. Sebastian. Everything. I believe you have read the letters I sent you before… my 'death'. I've wrote that I'd give my life to you. For you to do whatever you want but…" Ciel said, in an indifferent voice.

"But what?"

Ciel had a smug look on his face. "But this isn't my time to die. Not yet," he replied. "Sorry Sebastian, but I have to do this."

BANG!

!

Sebastian released Ciel from his hold and clutched his wound. Pain shot through his body. "You!" he snarled.

Ciel looked down at him. "Sorry Sebastian. You can't get in my way. Not today. But I do hope we will meet again to resolve whatever that was left undone." He tucked his gun safely into his coat.

Ciel pinned the raven with his icy gaze before bending down. He whispered into Sebastian's ear, "Yes, Ciel is long dead. But he was killed by you. The Ciel you know is gone. All… All is left is me. Sebastian, remember this. You never bothered to listen to him… You've killed him. No one else but you. Goodbye my love." A little nibble on the ear and Ciel straightened from his pose. Chuckle. "Well, I'm done here. See you soon."

With that, the male jumped onto the roof of the building next to them and disappeared into the misty night sky. But that did not stop Sebastian from seeing the emotions that were running loose in those cold orbs before he left.

Pain. Guilt. Sadness. Loneliness. Sorrow.

I'm sorry Sebastian, I don't want to hurt you further but it is necessary to stop you. Please forgive me for shooting you. I'm more than willing to take your pain away. It's been so long since I've seen you. More than four years now. I'm relieved that you are living just fine. But the truth is… I'm not. Every day, I think of you. How drastic the change was after you knew my secret. It pains my heart to see you like this. All because of me.

What was left in the wake of Ciel was a letter.


Ciel's POV

I left my ex-lover on the ground and escaped. Not because I fear that he may kill me but the fact that I could not keep up with the facade anymore. I knew that Sebastian was fine since that day I went to the café however seeing him today makes my heart swell.

Was it pride for my former lover? Or was it the guilt and sadness that made my heart cry?

I was jumping from building to building but my strength was slowly seeping away. Giving in, I collapsed onto the roof. My cold and indifferent mask broke. Hot tears were making their way down my cheek.

"Why? Sebastian, why? Have you forgotten about me? Those times?" I cried. Not once had I broken down after my so-called death. But seeing Sebastian today, seeing how much he wanted me dead shattered my heart. It was in pieces already but that broke it even more.

I love you. More than words can express. Just listen to me once. I beg of you.

260 more days…


Okay. I know you might be wondering what's with the days at the last line. I'll explain as the story progresses but it's very important. And I know this chapter isn't up to standard. Sorry about that.
