Kya! I'm excited! Short chapter though because I can't think of anything else to type. I need a plan… XD Thanks so much for favoriting/alerting/reviewing/reading this. I love you guys! And what do you think about giving our favorite Sebas-chan a diary? Because I don't need some schoolgirl-y demon on my hands. But it might be fun. XD
Dear Diary,
For reasons unknown, I've decided to write in you again. Well, not necessarily unknown, it's because I'm bored. I want someone to play chess with but everyone thinks I'm dead and Sebastian always beats me. He always seems to know my next move, my overall strategy, no matter how stupid or amateur it may be. Why does he have to be so perfect all the time?
I mean, everything about him is perfect, all the time. He always gets everything done perfectly. He cleans perfectly, he bakes perfectly, he gardens perfectly, and he serves perfectly. All the while, he looks perfect too.
Not that I like the way he looks. I don't like the way his perfect eyes see through everything, or the way his perfect lips form into that perfect smirk, or the way his perfect arms feel around my body when he carries me, or the way his perfect hair falls, and I absolutely HATE that annoyingly perfect bit of hair that falls in the middle of his perfect face. That damn demon.
…Why can't my hair be perfect like that?
Hmm… I wonder if I could make him slip up in some way. Just a little mistake… Hm. This could be fun. I'll let you know how this goes.
Wish me luck,
Ciel Phantomhive
Quietly, Ciel placed the diary in its drawer and made sure to fully close it. He steepled his fingers and rested his forehead against them, smirking slightly. He pictured Sebastian's smug face. That perfectly smug face. Ciel's smirk widened. His fiendish mind had concocted a plan. Now he just had to wait for the right time to execute it.
Besides… maybe… if it worked… Sebastian would pay more attention to him. Even if it was only to get back at him. He needed someone to acknowledge him, even if it was only his butler. The only attention he had gotten for three years was from kidnappers and potential rapists. And a creepy mortician. And a creepy Chinese man. And a creepy fiancée.
What did Sebastian pay attention to? Besides the duties Ciel himself had given him. At any rate, it certainly wasn't Ciel himself. There was so much uncertainty surrounding his butler, Ciel got a headache trying to figure him out. What did he like to do? What was his family like? What about his previous contracts? His butler, Sebastian Michaelis, was a mystery to him and Ciel was now determined to find out more.
Meanwhile, our favorite Sebastian was in the kitchen baking. He wasn't sure what exactly he did to the cake last night besides knock over vanilla. After that, he did what he thought was best, while not paying attention. But if his young master thought it was good, he would try his best to recreate it. Ciel had gotten used to his usual desserts and normally seemed bored while eating. If it made Ciel happy, then Sebastian would take his time and do it properly, no matter what.
Of course, other than this, what made Ciel happy was unknown, not just to Sebastian, but, he thought, to the younger demon himself. What would put one of his cute smiles on his cute lips? Not like Sebastian would admit to himself that he particularly cared.
But damn, why did Ciel have to be so cute? The way his cute, child-like face looked, especially when he succeeded at something particularly difficult, the way his cute, big blue eyes looked up at Sebastian full of trust, the way his cute, silken hair framed his face, the way his slender figure felt, when curled up next to him, in Sebastian's arms. It all just made Sebastian melt and made his heart speed up a little. There was also this curious pang in his chest. As to what it was bewildered Sebastian, but he usually ignored it.
Ciel was the only thing on Sebastian's mind but he didn't know why. He is and has been for the better part of three years now. Sebastian worked so hard to please him every day. Why he did this for his rather demanding master was confusing and dumbfounded the older demon. Besides, Ciel couldn't care less. Sebastian knew everything there was to know about the boy but at the same time, knew nothing.
But still, despite all this, Sebastian constantly felt the need to make his young master happy. What exactly is it that makes Ciel smile? What, if he had a choice out of everything, would he choose to do with his free time? What did he like to do in his childhood, as short as it was? His master, Ciel Phantomhive was a curious boy indeed, and Sebastian was determined to figure him out.
Sebastian looked down at the mixture in the bowl he held in his hands. It looked the same. It smelt the same. But it wasn't the same. Something important was missing. What was it?
Sebastian almost smiled as he remembered Prince Soma and Agni. Something was missing in his curry and Sebastian had to rely on someone else to help him. That someone was his young master. His young master gave him what he needed. Even if it was an accident.
Sebastian whispered to himself, "Ciel gave me what I needed."
So Sebastian thought to himself, (A/N Do you see what I did there? Huh? Huh? Huh? Tell me if you did. It'll make me happy. XD) perhaps what he needed… was Ciel himself.
But… how does one… keep… a person?
And that, my dear readers, shows how different Ciel and Sebastian are. While Ciel is in his study, trying to figure out how to mess up Sebastian, Sebastian is in the kitchen baking, trying to figure out how to make Ciel happy. :P I love these guys. And I especially love my reviewers. But there's this one person I absolutely ADORE…
I wrote a one-shot fanfiction where Ciel and Sebastian go skating. So the wonderful, wonderful InvaderPhantom16 drew this. #/d5ail8a I just love it to bits and Ciel is SUPER cute in it. Please go and just click on the link. And if you say anything bad about it I will sic my evil Sebastian on you. XD I mean, having someone draw something based on something you write is just awesome. (Hi InvaderPhantom16! I wuv u!)
Anyways, thanks so much for all the support in your reviews! I simply love all of you… even though some of you may be creepy stalkers who rape little kittens… Err… on that awkward note… Bye guys!
