Chapter Four

We finally reached the front porch of the apartment complex where Grell said he lived in this modern time. They were all a sky blue color, and were tall, but each apartment was only a single level. There was a park with many trees, bushes, swings, slides, fields, and other structures. Oddly enough, my child-side was calling me to play, and I was intrigued by each of the items there. What? No, I've outgrown this. I Don't Want To Play. I thought, but my subconscious mind said other wise.

"H.. Hey, Sebastian?" I called sheepishly, tugging on the sleeve of Sebastian's black shirt, looking directly at the park.

"What is it, my Ciel?" He asked. I simply brushed away the comment.

"Can… We… Play..?" I requested. He chucked at me.

"Of course." Was all he replied before sweeping me into his arms.

"I'm starting to think you do this for your own enjoyment Sebastian. Carrying me like this shouldn't be fun." I spoke up, snuggling into his hold.

"Ciel, why do you think I wouldn't enjoy this? Holding you close to me… I do love it" He smiled down at me, but I simply looked away embarrassedly.

"Well, your fun is over. We're here." stated my mouth, while my body just wanted to stay this way with Sebastian forever. W…What are you talking about Ciel! Get a hold of yourself! This isn't like you! I screamed at myself mentally. Clearing my throat, I hopped out of Sebastian's grasp.

I immediately went to the swings. Taking one chain in my left hand, and the other in my right, I jumped and propped myself up on the seat. How was this supposed to go? The last time I've ever swung was with my parents when I was little. I even remember Elizabeth being there… her blonde curls, green eyes, so cheerful. Those days are gone though… never coming back… As I tried to remember how to kick my legs back and forth to move, I felt a pressure on my lower my mind back into reality, I noticed Sebastian was pushing me with that stupid grin on his face. He pushed my up, and I kept pushing till I went so high, that each time I came down, the swing gave a little "Jump". I still kept a straight face, I don't think I even smiled. I really did enjoy myself, it was quite fun. I moved my right hand up to my head's level, as I slowed, and rested the side of my head on it. I felt so relaxed, like nothing could ever disrupt this moment.

"SEBAS-CHAN!"

Oh god.

"Sebas-Chan!" Grell called out again. I got off the swing to see Sebastian sitting on the park bench, and Grell holding onto him by the waist.

"Sebas-Chan, I didn't know you liked to visit parks! If you did, then you should of told me, because we could've climbed into the trees for a while." Grell continued in a - failed - seductive tone of voice, as Sebastian rubbed the bridge of his nose.

"Grell." I tried to say calmly, "Get off Sebastian. Now." He stuck his tongue out at me, and reluctantly peeled himself off the butler.

I took a spot beside the Crow, and crossed my legs. Grell glared daggers at me, and I just smirked.

"Ciel, every time you smile, a kitten dies." Grell stated.

"If that's true, then every time you have one of those delusional fantasies of yours-" Before I could retort the comment, Sebastian covered my mouth to keep from speaking.

"I should advise you to be the bigger man here Ciel. You don't want to be considered an immature kid… do you?" Sebastian whispered into my ear, making me growl in protest, but the last thing I wanted was to be considered a child again. So I stopped, and started pouting.

"Oh- You do care!" Grell complied, swinging his hips back and forth. I just closed my eyes, and hoped the red-headed eye sore would just go away.

"No, I don't" Sebastian coolly replied.

Not even two seconds had passed before I was up and ready to get away from Grell. Just talking to him was ciphering energy from me.

"Sebastian. I would like to rest, please."

Grell and Sebastian just looked at me with wide eyes. I was confused.

"What?" I asked.

"Sebastian, did you hear what I heard?" Asked Grell.

"What!" I repeated myself, my angry now.

"I think I did, Grell. That is, if you heard my Ciel say something out of the ordinary." Sebastian stated. I looked at the taller men. Sure Sebastian may have decreased in size, but he was sill a good seven inches taller than I.

"What! What The Hell Did I Say!" I shouted

"Ciel," Sebastian started. I was beginning to get used to him calling me by my name, "You said please."

I went over my thoughts in my head. God, I did, didn't I.

"Means nothing, So what." I placed my arms crossed over my chest.

"If you say so." Once again Sebastian picked me up. I snuggled close to him. "Lets go, I shall prepare you for sleep."

Even if I didn't need it, it was still a handy luxury to have

It took about five minutes to get into Grell's Apartment. It was white walls, with pictures of William and Grell on the hall walls. Walking in through the door, it was easy to see them. To the right, was the kitchen. There was a simple set here - a stove, fridge, microwave, drawers and cabinets. The usual. Looking past the kitchen you could see the table. It was set with pink candles in the middle, and white lace doilies. That seems like Grell enough… I don't think Will would even touch doilies', let alone let them be apart of a center piece. So I guess he doesn't live here. I sighed Damn. That means that Grell doesn't have a leash, so he can pretty much do what he wants. Grell lead Sebastian and I to a room down the hall, and he stopped only to point out his room, the linen closet, and the bathroom.

"Sorry about the fact I only have two rooms. Ciel, you can have this one. Sebastian can come share mine if he wants too" Grell make kisses faces as his spoke.

"Thanks, but no thanks." Sebastian said. "I'd rather crash on the couch."

"Sebastian?" I spoke up in my childish voice.

"Yes?"

"I'd feel better if you stayed in m…my room…" I said, "J…J…Just cause I don't trust Grell!" I pointed to the red-head who immediately went to start sulking.

"Like I'd do anything to a pest like you…" He mumbled. "…Sebastian on the other hand…"

"Grell, just shut your trap." Sebastian butted in. "Yes of course Ciel, I'll gladly stay with you."

I smiled.

And for the second time that day, Sebastian, and Grell, just stared at me.

After Sebastian had finally gotten me dressed for sleep in a pair of red and black "plaid boxers", a black tee, and had taken off my eye patch, he pulled back the covers of the bed, to allow myself to crawl in under the warmth.

"About earlier… Sebastian" I started. It really didn't mean anything. I'm just so alone sometimes…

"hush…" He cooed, brushing the hair out of my face. "sleep young one."

"I'm… Not that young…" I tried to protest.

Sebastian bent down and kissed my forehead, but I was too lazy to do anything about it. He's going to hear an earful from me tomorrow.

"Get some good rest for school tomorrow, Ciel. You'll need it"

And then, I slipped into a peaceful realm of light sleep for the next 9 hours.
