Chapter 5

Harry sat on the bed and stared with wide eyes at Sebastian. "You're kidding, right?" he asked, his voice filled with false hope.

"No not really," Sebastian said as he gazed evenly at the smaller demon. "You have been seen with Master Ciel and I almost every time we go to town. Besides, you are quite noticeable just like the Earl, so you need to have a disguise as well… plus you remember those threats your sister talks about?" Sebastian asked with a slight grimace.

"Oh no, she threatened you didn't she?" Harry asked as he fell over on the bed.

"That she did, and I can see why her Riders would want to please her. Now I'll be back up in a moment since I have to help the Young Master with his, so you can enjoy your freedom for now," Sebastian said as he left the room.

Harry sat up and looked at the dress that Sebastian had left. He definitely wasn't into dresses, but this one was pretty.

It was a deep forest green with black trim and high front. The sleeves were slightly puffed out and attached to the dress with an onyx stone.

Sebastian watched as Harry studied the dress while he picked up the ivory-made, whalebone corset. "Mind you, we don't have all night," he said, causing Harry to jump and watched as he paled at the sight of the corset.

"Can't I sneak in as a kitten?" he asked.

"As much as I wish that you could, Master Ciel is allergic to cats, plus he has also ordered me to put you in that dress," Sebastian said. "So you can go willingly or you can put up a fight, but just so you know, I have been a demon for over 2000 years," he said.

"So do demons usually eat other demons?" Harry asked and then blinked. Crap, foot-in-mouth moment. I seem to have a lot of those.

Sebastian paled at that. "Only Lucifer and his two goons. They prefer the blackest of the black, and demons, well, we aren't pure for a reason, meaning we have the blackest souls. It also depends on if Lucifer has woken up from one of his naps, which must be the case if he threatened to eat you. They are the only three though, and the rest of us, well, we like ours with a little bit of light. Now willingly or fight?" he asked, holding up the corset.

Harry stood and took off his clothes if a little begrudgingly of course because he was still thin enough for his ribs to show somewhat not to mention a few scars on his back and midsection. He shuddered as Sebastian wrapped the corset around his chest. Hopefully this will be the LAST time you have to go through this.

Sebastian made sure to be careful when he jerked back on the string after he had laced it up. It tightened considerably around the smaller demon's frail ribs, which he still knew nothing about this one's past except he was the Master of Death and from the future in another realm. He heard him bite back several whimpers and could feel his shaking through the corset's string. "It will only be a moment longer," he said as he gave another tug, which caused Harry to let out a low whine that was hardly audible to the human ear. He laced up the extra string and spun Harry around as he felt upset, for some reason, that Harry was upset.

Harry was still shaking against the butler's body when said butler helped him into the dress and buttoned up the back. A black choker necklace was placed around his neck with an emerald green stone hanging down in silver plating that was attached to the choker.

"You look lovely," Sebastian purred seductively in Harry's ear, which resulted in Harry blushing. "Now extensions, yes?" he inquired as he lifted up said extensions from a box on a chair near him.

Harry nodded and let Sebastian style his extensions, which resulted in a French braid, and he was sure that Sebastian had dug the clips deep into his hair, but he added a wandless and silent sticking charm to the clips.

Sebastian led Harry over to a mirror while he dressed himself in a black tutor's outfit, and he watched as Harry added a little of the blush, eyes shadow that brought his eyes out, massacre and light on the lipstick. "Something tells me you are used to putting on cosmetics," he said as he came up behind the smaller demon.

"No, not really. Ginny, my wife or would it be ex now, she and Hermione taught me how to use the basic of the cosmetics since Ginny had got into a horrible accident. I didn't know the reason as to why she wanted to wear it considering she left the house. Apparently it was for her to find another guy for the night, and I had followed her in my Animagus form since no one except my sister and her riders knew I could become one," Harry said as he fiddled with the brush.

"Now why would she do that?" Sebastian pulled the smaller demon closer to his chest.

"My Master of Death status made me immortal and kept me the same age as when I received them. Now the only relationship I could possibly count on is my Soulmate, and I'm not sure if he even wants me, considering his age and how dominant he is. But I don't want to be loose either because I would then have to fend off Lucifer though I probably still would even with my Soulmate, but at least I wouldn't be alone. I don't want to be alone anymore. The 3rd war destroyed all the other humans in my old realm because they feared me," Harry was just about in tears when Sebastian spun him around and pushed his lips against Harry's. He practically melted in Sebastian's arms, but he gasped when Sebastian nipped his bottom lip, which enabled Sebastian to slip his tongue into Harry's mouth.

Sebastian mapped out Harry's mouth with his tongue before coaxing his tongue into a dance. He broke apart from Harry so that they could both breathe. "Tell me, why did you marry that Ginny to begin with?"

"My former Soulmate died during the 2nd war of my realm. I hated him and him me for years until we found out that we were each other's Soulmates. If he had survived, then maybe the 3rd war could have been prevented, but he was killed. And I had to watch him die. That is another reason why I am here besides the fact that I was bored and lonely," Harry looked back in the mirror and stared at the lipstick. "Perhaps I should just go without lipstick," he said as he looked for something to wipe it off when a cloth was pressed against lips and wiped the remaining lipstick off. "Thanks," he said, looking shyly at Sebastian as he set the cloth on the dresser.

"You're welcome, now shall we head to the Viscount's ball with the others?" he asked extending a hand with a sly smile.

"If we must," Harry said with a resigned sigh.


"And just why do I have to act as your niece," Ciel barked at Madame Red who was in a red dress.

"Because I've always wanted a girl," Madame Red responded with a laugh. "Plus you do want to capture the Viscount's eye, right? I hear he has an eye for anything pretty that's in a skirt," she whispered.

Harry had to admit that Ciel looked dashing in the pink dress with black and white trim. Then his hair, extensions, were pulled up in pigtails and flowed down to the small of his back complete with a pink hat to cover his contract with Sebastian. He frowned. It was the same dress as he remembered it.

"Something the matter?" Sebastian asked as he placed Harry's gloved hand in the crook of his arm, and he glanced at Grell who was glaring daggers at Harry though something inside him hummed its approval and had been since he had kissed the smaller demon. Whoever his Soulmate is, he will certainly have to put up a fight to keep this one… though he is a keeper. Wait, why am I thinking in the terms that he is mine? We only shared one kiss though, and we have only known each other for a couple of months at least.

"Just thinking about something," Harry said as Madame Red turned to him.

"And you look just as lovely my dear. Now, you should be Sebastian's shy lover, and Sebastian, you are Ciel's tutor," she told the man as he adjusted his glasses.

Ciel looked at the position of Harry's arm and raised an eyebrow at his butler with a slight smirk. "Playing the part are we?" he teased slightly, causing Harry to blush.

"As always my lord," Sebastian said with his own smirk. "Though I would like to request the rest of tonight off after I take you home from this ball, I promised the Undertaker and that strange woman who has been with him every single time that I'd bring Harry by in his dress."

Harry gasped at that. "Please don't tell me my sister asked you to," he whined.

"She did besides if she is your sister, surely you would want to see her?"

"Yes, but not like this! I still have to preserve what little dignity I have left. Plus she would never let me live it down," Harry resulted back into whining.

"Enough," Sebastian growled and Harry quieted down immediately. This sort of surprised him, but now that he thought about it, the younger demon seemed only capable of listening to him, which meant he found a way to collar the demon if he chose to do so. After much thought as they walked in, he decided that he would only use it if it concerned Harry's life," he reluctantly released Harry from his arm, and he watched as he headed towards the balcony. He kept his senses open in case Harry wanted to get his attention.

"I'm just glad that Lizzie isn't here," Ciel muttered just as he heard Lizzie's voice say that she loved all the dresses here, and he started to tremble.

"Please my young mas-mistress, do remain calm," Sebastian said softly into his ear before grabbing the Earl's hand and hiding behind a table.

"If Lizzie saw me this way," Ciel started.

"Then the Phantomhive family name would probably be ruined for generations. This isn't good. I didn't expect her here," Sebastian said.

"Let's go join up with Madame Red," Ciel said as he stood and made his way back to a laughing Madame Red with Grell and Lau fanning her. "Seems someone is enjoying herself," he grumbled at the number of people that surrounded his aunt.

Sebastian nodded as Ciel walked away. He ended up dragging Ciel onto the balcony after Ciel had come across his fiancée again. Sebastian saw Harry standing in the moonlight and gazing up at the full moon. He was struck as to how pretty it made Harry look with the moonlight bathing him in a silver ethereal glow.

Ciel turned his head from looking inside to see what had attracted his butler's attention, and he stared at the woman before he realized it was just Harry. "Harry?" he breathed.

Harry turned his head and offered a sad warm smile. "Hello little lord," he said, coming to stand by the butler. "Find the Viscount yet?" he asked softly.

"No," Ciel said just as two women started talking about how bright the Viscount's hair is like the sun.

Harry waited for the music to start, and it did. He listened as Ciel complained about having to dance with Sebastian in public. Was I ever that bratty? You should feel lucky Ciel that you can dance with Sebastian. I wouldn't mind, but he hasn't asked me to yet. I doubt that there will be many dances tonight or at least the opportunity to. Harry watched as Sebastian made his way back to Harry's side. "Shouldn't you be keeping an eye on Ciel?"

"Oh, believe me when I say I am, but I do have to wait for him to get kidnapped. That seems to be the one thing that he is best at," Sebastian murmured as he closed the distance between him and Harry.

Harry's heart was beginning to beat rapidly in his chest just before Sebastian captured his lips with his. He felt the small nibble on his lower lip as Sebastian asked him for entrance, which he gave, and he melted into Sebastian's arms as Sebastian pulled him closer to his body with one hand pressed firmly on the small of his back and the other on the back of his neck while Harry clasped his hands around Sebastian's neck.

They broke apart to catch their breath and the music stopped just then.

Sebastian glanced at Harry who produced a white mask with red dancing across the face of it, which caused him great confusion, but he accepted the mask and went to prevent Lady Elizabeth from discovering her fiancé.

Harry watched him leave sadly before turning back to the moon. He could steal feel the lingering sensation of Sebastian's lips on his, which made him smile if only for a moment because the full moon reminded him painfully of Remus and Teddy, who had turned out to be able to transform as a werewolf as well though he wasn't nearly as dangerous as one that was turned instead of one that was born.

Sebastian stood in the doorway of the balcony now that he was finished with his parlor trick, leaning against the frame as he stared at Harry who looked just as sad as he had the first time, and his heart, or at least he thought it was his heart, ached with longing and wanted to comfort the smaller demon. He sensed as the humans picked up the bows to their violins and tuned them again. He walked forward, grabbed Harry by his wrist, which startled said man until he realized it was just Sebastian and led him towards the floor. "May I have this dance?" he asked offering his other hand to Harry while letting go Harry's hand go just as the waltz started up again.

"But I can't dance," Harry mumbled sheepishly.

Sebastian just smirked and kept his hand out.

Harry looked up at his eyes before placing his gloved hand in Sebastian's and then placing his free hand on Sebastian's shoulder while he intertwined their fingers and placed his other hand on the small of Harry's back. Harry smiled at the taller demon even though it was small and fleeting.

They managed to dance through the whole song though Harry nearly tripped into him a couple of times and mumbled something about hating heels when Sebastian felt his contract flare up as Ciel gave an order. He really didn't want to leave Harry again, but he was as Harry said the first they met a collared demon.

"Go, I'll meet you out in the carriage," Harry said softly, releasing Sebastian.

"But," Sebastian started yet Harry interrupted him.

"I'll answer your questions later, but in my realm, my sister called me an old soul, which is a soul that is reincarnated several times and has lived many times. I still retain some of those memories or attributes to them. However, one of my old forms was a boy named Ciel Phantomhive, he was an Earl who wanted revenge on those that defiled his family name. I can't remember all that happen now because I am here with Ciel Phantomhive who may or may not be me in a few hundred years though I seriously doubt it because nothing I know exists here just as nothing here that you know existed in my realm. The only thing that is the same is the land, the names of those lands and famous people such as the queen or even important people that shaped history," Harry explained quickly before running away from Sebastian who took that chance, as dumbfounded as he was, to retrieve his young Master from being sold… again.


Review yes? Either way this is part 1 of 2 or 3 not sure yet since I try to keep the pages in the document to below 10. I know it isn't that many pages, but it gets hard to track all of the line breaks. Those that answered my question from the last about previous soulmate (you know who you are), you are... correct. Though I won't post who just yet, probably when this is completed. So to those who can't find the clues, they exist.

Most of the reviews I got before this chapter requested Harry in a dress, and personally, so did I. So it probably would have been written anyway. Also, Harry would do just about anything for his Soulmate regardless if his Soulmate knows or not.

This may get changed to be rated as M though I am not a hundred percent positive on this, depends on you guys and what you want and if I agree. This is my 1st fanfic and 1st with any actual romance though I am used to writing long stories with my own characters. I am actually writing a couple more with only Harry Potter. Both have the same pairing (DM/HP), so look forward to those if you are interested. I have the first couple of chapters down but won't post them for a while.

See you all next chapter!
