The next morning

Sebastians Michaelis Pov

~ I need to know what the matter is with ciel, the question is how.. Ive thought this through time and time again, standing in the cold unmerciful wind of winter. ~

Sebastian proceeded to ciels bedroom.

"Young lord, it is time to wake up"

"Nmph.. very well"

"Your schedule for today isn't particularly busy. You have a 2 o'clock appointment with mrs bloom for your clothing to be taylored followed by a meeting to discuss Funtoms expansion with mr williams at four. Otherwise your free to do as you wish my lord."

Ciel Phantomhive Pov

~ I realise sebastian dresses me each morning and night however the taylor session is different, mrs bloom tracing my body for measurements, its embarrassing infront of sebastian.. It would look suspisous if I dismissed him once again to do a chore.. damn. ~

"tch, can't we prolong the meeting with mrs bloom?.."

"You've already prolonged this, I don't believe cancelling again will be a good idea, master."

"What a bother.."

~ This won't be pleasant at all ~

"In the meantime, here is your tea"

"..'New moon drop' why not earl grey?"

"Your ability to scent tea is truely comendable, master. I thought you may tire of earl grey if I served it for a third time in a row.. The leaves of new moon drop are said to be picked on the night of the full moon, causing the tea to have a sweet aroma and subtle taste"

"Fine.."

~ The tea is rather a close comparison to chai yin a tea served traditionally in Japanese cultures. ~

Ciel drunk the tea within a mere few moments. Then as usual Sebastian prepared his clothing and dressed him, detecting the small pink hues colouring ciels cheek bones.

Sebastian Michaelis Pov

~ Blushing now are we? Is this why you dismiss me from your taylor sessions, as if I wouldn't notice, however you are running out of excuses. I believe last time you asked me to check every room in the house for an hour.. standing in a room for 15 minutes isn't amusing. No this time you will have to endure me standing with you, I want to see you blush again, for me.. ~

"Very well my young master, breakfast is prepared and waiting on the dinning table or shall I bring it to your study?"

"My study please."

~ Please? You never say please.. how unexpected. ~

"Of course, since you asked so.. nicely"

Ciels cheeks turned a shade darker.

~ I can't help but tease the poor child, especially when he makes it so easy ~

Ciel Phantomhive Pov

Sebastian brought the breakfast into his study momentarily after he had arrived.

" Today we have an eggs benedict styled dish, my lord."

"Very well, you are dismissed"

Sebastian nodded and promptly left into the corridor, closing the studies door behind him. Only to return to clear away the china 12 minutes later. Catching ciels gaze upon him as he did so, smirking at him, he left again without comment.

~ That damned demon, what is he even smirking about!? but.. that muscled chest and those broad shoulders.. what the hell am I doing. What is wrong with me!? he is a demon, shapeshifted into a human, nothing more.. yet why does he cause me such arousal.. ~

Sebastian proceeded to remind ciel of his appointment with mrs bloom and escort him to the private rooms for his fitting.

"Oh ciel how wonderful to see you darling."

"Mrs bloom" ciel nodded

"So shall we begin? lets have you undress then"

Ciel Fumbled with the buttons on his shirt, after a minute sebastian noted the amusement of it wearing off

"Allow me, master"

"tch"

Sebastian had ciel undressed till he stood in his underwear, his milky flesh exposed to the crimson orbs that wandered his small delicate frame.

"Oh ciel, same height as always I see"

"Nmph.. I don't apprechiate the commend.. Im atleast an inch taller than last time!"

"Heheh of course my dear, my appologies."

Sebastian Michaelis Pov

~ Silky soft cyan grey hair, smooth skin marked with the occult symbol, scarred.. forever reminded of those days, always enveloped in darkness but retaining your innocence, making you even more irresistable to a demon, your mine.. ~

Ciel Phantomhive Pov

~ Why is he staring at me, his eyes, they are a fusion of purple and pink, similar to mine, usually his only turns this way if he's accepting an order. ~

"Sebastian please go check on the servents, you don't need to be here."

Sebastian Michaelis Pov

~ Is he embaressed? Infront of me, how ironic, I dress him morning and night and yet he's so flustered about a mere measuring. ~

Amusement was clear on sebastians features as he bowed and excused himself to check on the servents, which in fact was a perfect time, bardroy was currently in possession of a flamethrower.

*Sigh*

"Bardroy how about you take a break, I'll finish up here."

"O'right thanks!"

Sebastian proceeded to prepare the evening meal, a Tika'la amore. However his contract seal began to shimmer, alerting sebastian that ciel was in danger.

~ Ciel, you will be my downfall, I will burn in the firey depths of hell itself to save you.. ~

*Sigh* ~ Why is he constantly all I think about? I suppose I should check on him. ~

Sebastian knocked twice upon the door of the study and with no answer he went in.

"Young master?!"

Ciel stood behind his desk, next to his favourite velvet apolstered chair. In tears, staring at a pistol that lay carelessly on the surface of his desk, accompanied by several silver bullets.

"What?" replied the tired voice

"Why are you crying ciel and why do you have a pistol, shouldn't you know you have no need for human defenses when you have me to protect you"

Ciel laughed, bitter sarcasum clear in the tone. Ignoring his name.

"Yes of course well It wasn't a defense"

~ Of course it wasn't, the symbol glowed because you had thoughts of sucide.. ~

"I see, however what could possibly have made you do this?"

"You" He said without hesitation

~ Me!? ~

"Your not going to commit sucide ciel"

Sebastian moved closer and took the pistol from the desk and threw it from the window

"Why should you care! my life is meaningless because of you, I don't even feel the need for revenge, you can take my soul from my dead body or better yet Sebastian kill me and take my soul, I want to break the contract"

"There is one small problem with that ciel, I love you. I don't believe it is a benefit to me if you were no longer here."

"Liar. Stop it, I told you never to lie to me"

Sebastian bit of his left white glove, revealing his contract symbol, then took a hold of ciel by the shoulder with his right hand, sliding his index finger down ciels neck, forcing the boy to look into his crimson eyes.

"I haven't lied to you, I could say I would be by your side forever in one minute, then slit your throat in the next " he whispered into ciels ear slowly and to prove his point he pressed his ebony black nails into ciels pale skin at the base of his throat.

Ciel shivered, more tears sliding town his cheeks.

"I love you ciel, that won't change. I see you blush when you see me, I know what you want"

Sebastian pulled ciel into a tight embrace, cradling him on the floor of his study, feeling droplets of liquid splash upon his back.
