Chapter 9: Tremors
Ciel waited impatiently for the last bell to ring. He tapped his pen on his desk over and over in the hopes that the clock would move faster, but it was in vain because the clock seemed to move even slower than when he first started watching. In addition, he began tapping his foot in an opposite beat to his pen, and soon enough the clock progressed another minute.
'I need to be the first one out of here so that Alois won't have time to catch up to me. This needs to be swift, careful, and-' Ciel's thought was interrupted by the final bell.
Dumbfounded, Ciel clumsily gathered his books and papers, and in turn was the last to leave the classroom. He ran into the hallway and quickly dodged students to get to his locker before anyone could give his position away to Alois.
'That's all I need right now.' Ciel thought to himself as he dumped his books in his locker and slammed it shut.
"You're in a hurry. Why rush when you have all day and night?" Sebastian cooed from behind Ciel.
Ciel's knees grew weak, but he was still flustered from earlier, "I don't want Alois to see me leaving with someone like you."
Sebastian blew air into Ciel's ear, "Then we can be the last two to leave."
Ciel's heart was beating too fast to keep quiet, "He'll wait for us, for me."
Sebastian put his arms around Ciel and felt of his heart, "Then come ahead with me. Alois is in the back hallway saying goodbye to Ronald."
Ciel put a hand to his chest to try and steady his heartbeat, "All right, let's leave."
Sebastian put his long, strong arm around Ciel's waist and guided him toward the doors to the front entrance of the school. He pushed them open and started to guide Ciel to the front gates when other students started to take notice.
"What if they tell Alois?" Ciel asked in a hushed voice.
"What can he do about it?" Sebastian replied in a regular tone.
Ciel bit his lip as he had nothing else to say. Sebastian walked to the gate and turned right, which was odd for Ciel as he was used to turning left after leaving school, but this was the way to Sebastian's house, so he had to take as much mental mapping as possible: know your enemy.
Sebastian walked to the end of the block and then stopped at the crosswalk that turned left, "I'm not walking you directly to my home, Ciel. That would take entirely too long and I do want you in good condition when we arrive."
Ciel, now confused, asked, "Where are you taking me?"
Sebastian could only smile in response before walking across the crosswalk. Ciel was melting and angry at the same time, but he couldn't reject for a change.
Sebastian walked over to the next block where a convenience store parking lot took up a large amount of space.
He noticed Ciel looking at the store, "Would you like anything from here before we go?"
Ciel shook his head and allowed Sebastian to lead him into the parking lot. Sebastian reached into his pocket and retrieved a set of car keys.
"You can drive?" Ciel asked in a serious tone.
Sebastian winked, "You can't?"
"I'm only fifteen." Ciel responded in a lowered voice.
"I'm older than you, so naturally I have more privileges." He jingled the keys in front of Ciel, which made him angry, but also reminded him of the key he still had in his pocket.
'I'm going to make him pay for that.' Ciel thought to himself.
Sebastian walked over to a jet black car and opened the passenger door for Ciel.
"This can't be your car." Ciel said in disbelief.
Sebastian smiled, "It is, and I would be more cooperative if I were you."
"You have a foreign car?" Ciel asked.
"It's a 2011 Infiniti M56." Sebastian pointed to the side on which he was hold the door for Ciel, and Ciel couldn't resist the offer.
Sebastian smiled and shut the door before walking around to the driver's side and getting inside. He buckled himself in and looked at Ciel.
He ran his eyes over Ciel, "You know, I've taken advantage of you without knowing what your entire body is like. We need to change this."
Ciel looked at Sebastian with a shocked expression, "What? I can't believe you would say something like that to me!"
"Calm down, I don't want you to have another attack on me." Sebastian said in a serious tone as he started the car.
"What do you mean attack? I have severe allergies to cats is all, so I don't know why I broke down in class." Ciel admitted.
Sebastian pressed a few buttons on the control panel and turned on some music, "You had a similar attack before in biology, so I thought you had asthma."
"I have that too." Ciel admitted as he looked down at his fingers.
Sebastian reached over and grabbed one of Ciel's small hands. He pulled it up to his mouth and kissed it lightly.
"I care for you more than you know, Ciel." Sebastian said while looking deep into Ciel's eyes.
Ciel pulled his hand away, "How can you say things like this to me?"
Sebastian winked and eventually pulled out of the parking lot. He pulled out into the street and turned left onto the street before making a few turns in some places foreign to Ciel.
"Why did you invite me to your home in the first place?" Ciel asked with his eyes cast down.
Sebastian moved his hand back over to hold Ciel's, "I need to talk to you."
"What do you need to tell me?" Ciel looked out of the window.
Sebastian rubbed the delicate skin he was holding in his hands, "It's so important to me that you know this, and I want to be in a private setting."
Ciel bit his lip before asking his next question, "Do you live with your parents?"
Sebastian chuckled, "I don't have parents, just like you."
Ciel whipped around to look at his face, but knew he was serious all the same.
"I know more about you than you think, Ciel." Sebastian said as he caressed Ciel's hand.
Ciel became angered, "I don't believe that for an instant."
"Just hold all questions until we reach my home." Sebastian said as he turned left into a questionable part of town.
Ciel unconsciously locked his door, which evoked a laugh from Sebastian.
"Not much longer, be patient." Sebastian cooed.
Ciel started tapping his foot again, but was surprised to come to a complete stop in front of a large, two-story house with an abundant yard.
He looked back to see the town, but there was only a lonely stone road, "When did we get here?"
Sebastian smiled as he put the car in park and turned it off, "You weren't paying attention? I could keep you here forever and you couldn't find your way back."
Ciel looked at Sebastian with a weary expression, but Sebastian burst out laughing.
"I'm only teasing." He got out and walked around to Ciel's side to open the door for him.
Ciel got out and looked around at the house and grass. He took a deep breath and suddenly coughed.
Sebastian smiled and reached out for his cheek, "You have asthma, so you shouldn't go breathing in all this pollen from the outside air. Let's go inside."
Sebastian grabbed Ciel's hand and lead him to the door.
Ciel released Sebastian's hand and instead linked arms with him as he unlocked the door.
Sebastian opened the door and motioned for Ciel to enter first, and then followed Ciel inside.
Ciel didn't have time to take in the scenery as he was soon picked up off his feet and carried over to a set of stairs.
"What are you doing, Sebastian? Put me down!" Ciel fought.
"Please Ciel, don't fidget while I'm on a staircase. I'll put you down as soon as we arrive." Sebastian said with a weary voice.
Ciel calmed himself and allowed Sebastian to carry him up the stairs. Sebastian arrived on the landing and walked down the hall to enter a bedroom on the left.
Sebastian walked over to the bed and placed Ciel down gently before he pushed him on his back and started kissing his neck.
"S-Sebastian! What are you doing?" Ciel tried to push him off, but was too weak.
Sebastian grabbed his hands and kissed him hard, but pulled back quickly because Ciel tried to bite him.
"There is no need for violence." Sebastian said as he still had Ciel pinned to the bed.
Ciel's eyes started to water, "Is this all you want me for? Now that you've had a taste you want it all, and when there's nothing new about me you'll toss me aside!" Ciel looked away from Sebastian's face.
Sebastian's face went from calm to worried, and back to relief, "Ciel, I need to tell you something."
Ciel refused eye contact, "Release me."
Sebastian let go of his hands and pulled Ciel into a sitting position in his lap.
Ciel instinctively wrapped his arms around Sebastian, "Tell me."
Sebastian placed a hand on each side of Ciel's face and pulled him far enough away to look into his eyes, "I love you."
Ciel's heart thumped hard once, "What was that?"
"I love you, Ciel." Sebastian repeated.
Ciel put his hands on his head to keep it from exploding, "You're lying!"
"I love you, Ciel. I love you more than anything." Sebastian repeated.
Ciel tried to remember the first time he saw Sebastian in biology, "You don't!"
"Why do you say that?" Sebastian asked with confidence.
"Lizzie! You were staring at Lizzie practically the entire time!" Ciel finally realized.
Sebastian smiled, "I was never looking at her, but at you. She even sat next to you as we worked on the post-lab assignments."
Ciel tried to work this out in his head, "What about her? She was always staring at you!"
"Who else was next to me, Ciel? Who did she run for when you went into an attack?"
"Paula? No! Lizzie can't be in love with Paula!" Ciel's heart was beating too hard for him to hear his own thoughts.
"Ciel, I love you more than anything." Sebastian said with a more urgent voice.
Ciel was shaking, "No you don't."
"Listen to your own heartbeat, Ciel. I know you have feelings for me too." Sebastian pointed out.
Ciel felt of his own chest, "My body is betraying me! I'm being attacked, and you are just sitting there acting so calm! You can't mean all these embarrassing things you're saying!"
Sebastian grabbed one of Ciel's small hands and placed it on his own chest. Ciel felt a rapid heartbeat and pulled away quickly.
"Every time your heart beats, Ciel, it sends an earthquake throughout my body. Being near you gives me tremors and I can barely keep my head on straight, but I have to since you're so weak physically…otherwise, I'd be in a state worse than yours."
Ciel's eyes opened wide and all he could see and hear and breathe was Sebastian.
"Sebastian…I…" Ciel was interrupted by Sebastian's cell phone.
Sebastian retrieved it from his pocket and turned it off, "I can't have anymore interruptions. What were you going to say?"
"How can you love me so soon, Sebastian?" Ciel asked.
Sebastian smiled, "No one else tears me up like you do."
Ciel's heart beat hard once again, and he could tell Sebastian heard it because Sebastian blushed lightly.
Sebastian slowly made his way over to Ciel and kissed him lightly on his lips, down his neck, to his collarbone, and back up again.
Ciel melted into Sebastian's body, "I want you."
Sebastian kissed his head, "We'll do it right this time."
"Sebastian, you're shaking." Ciel said as Sebastian went to take off his shirt.
"You're the one to blame for making me like this. I, the leader of the Devil's Puppets, I, who owns Tokyo, grow weak in the knees when you utter my name. It's all your fault."
Ciel pulled Sebastian over him as he went on his back, "You initiated."
"No, it was you, with your dangerous face and entrancing eyes."
