That Butler, Isekaid (Modern!Reader Insert)

That Butler; Trying

Ciel's heart sank as _______'s response danced around the truth, avoiding the direct question he had posed. The fear in their eyes and the hesitation in their voice were clear indicators that they were unsure of how to navigate the delicate situation. Ciel couldn't help but feel a pang of disappointment, a mix of longing and confusion swirling within him.

With a slight tremor in his voice, Ciel pressed on, his gaze locked with _______'s. "_______, please... I need to know. How do you feel about me and Sebastian vying for your affections? It's clear that there's something there, that both of us are drawn to you. I won't deny that I have feelings for you, but I need to understand where you stand."

_______'s eyes darted away, their voice filled with uncertainty. "C, I... I appreciate both of you, and I value our relationships. But this... situation is new to me. I never expected to be at the center of such attention, and it's overwhelming. I don't want to hurt either of you."

Ciel's frustration grew, his voice tinged with urgency. "_______, please, don't you see? It's already hurting me to see you torn between the two of us. I can't bear the thought of losing you, but I also can't stand the uncertainty. I need to know if there's a chance for something more between us. Please, be honest with me."

_______'s shoulders slumped, their voice barely above a whisper. "C, I... I don't know. This is all so confusing and overwhelming. I never expected to be in a situation like this. I care about you, C, and I care about Sebs too, but I'm afraid of what it all means."

Ciel's brows furrowed, his voice filled with a mix of concern and determination. "_______, you don't have to be afraid. We can figure this out together, take the time we need to understand our own feelings. But we can't ignore what's happening between us. I won't let fear hold us back."

_______'s eyes flickered with a mix of fear and longing, their voice trembling. "C, I... I'm scared of making the wrong choice, of hurting either of you. I never imagined that something like this would happen, and it's overwhelming. Can we... can we take some time apart, to think..?" Ciel's heart sank further as _______ trailed off, their voice filled with fear and uncertainty. The weight of their words hung heavily in the air, leaving an uncomfortable silence between them. Ciel understood _______'s need for space and time to process their emotions, but his own longing and impatience gnawed at him.

Biting his lip, Ciel took a step closer to _______, his voice filled with a mix of vulnerability and determination. "_______, I understand your concerns, but please know that I don't want to rush you into anything. We can take the time you need, but I can't deny my feelings for you. I care about you deeply, and it's tearing me apart to see you caught in this confusion."

_______'s gaze met Ciel's, their eyes shimmering with unshed tears. "C, I never wanted to hurt you. I appreciate your patience and understanding. I just need some time to sort through my own feelings, to figure out what I really want. Can you give me that?"

Biting his lip, Ciel took a step closer to _______, his voice filled with a mix of vulnerability and determination. "_______, I understand your concerns, but please know that I don't want to rush you into anything. We can take the time you need, but I can't deny my feelings for you. I care about you deeply, and it's tearing me apart to see you caught in this confusion."

Ciel nodded, his voice filled with a mix of sadness and acceptance. "Alright, _______. I'll give you the time and space you need. Just know that my feelings for you won't waver"

"Right..."

The air between them grew heavy with unspoken words and lingering emotions. Ciel's heart ached with a mix of longing and uncertainty, unsure of what the future held for their complicated relationship. He couldn't help but wonder if the distance _______ desired would only deepen the divide between them.
