Sebastian's POV

I woke up in my apartment. Rolling over to the side I saw the space next to me was empty. As usual. Even though me and ____ didn't sleep together that long I still miss her presence. 128 years later and I still miss her.

I got up and showered. While the scalding water hit my back I thought back to that night all so long ago:

I woke up and immediately noticed ____ was gone. I frantically pulled on my trousers and ran out of the room only to smack straight into Claude. Without apologising I raced past him.

"She's long gone now" He simply stated

"What?" I asked stopping dead in my tracks and turning around

"I said she left. I watched as she mounted her horse and rode off" He stated.

Rage boiled up inside me. He just let her go! How could he?!? Running up to him I punched him in the face. "HOW COULD YOU!" I shouted at him.

He pounced at me. Punching me back. "Now kindly stop that at once. I promised her I wouldn't kill. Don't make me break that promise" He said venom dripping.

I just shoved past him to get the rest of my clothes. It was almost dawn and I would have to leave soon. Picking up my shoes I found a letter. Opening it up it read:

My dearest Sebastian,
I'm sorry I had to leave you, but I couldn't risk your life just for my happiness. While it breaks my heart to leave it is the only option. I need to ensure your safety more than I need a whole heart.
That's dream we shared, well mine was a bit longer than yours. In mine I saw you murdered as I told you but I also may have also been told something that can help us understand more about what we're going through. It's linked to the people of my village so if anyone can find out what it means it's me. Therefore I have decided to go pursue the answers we both want.
Once again please know that I love you with my hole heart, body and what's left of my soul. You have my love now and forever. Until love brings us together again please know I will always be thinking of you, for you are my only love.
Yours now, forever and always.
_____

By the time I had finished reading the letter I had tears falling softly. Wiping them away, I left her house and made my way back to the Phantomhive manor ready to begin the rest of my life. Alone

I realised I had been crying again and quickly wiped away my tears. I hated this life. Everyday was hard without her, but I made it through each day. My only joy came every Sunday afternoon. I would fall asleep and see her again.

It would be the same every week. I would wake up in the same field as before wearing the same outfit. I would look up and see ____ waiting for me, dressed in the same dress and braid each time. I would walk over to her and we would do the same thing every time. We would cloud gaze and dance. Even after 128 years it never got boring. Each moment was memorable and each moment caused me to love her that little bit more.

A knock at my door startled me from my day dream. Pulling up my jeans, I went open the door. There I found Julie waiting for me. "Get dressed. We've gotta go" She said barging her way into my apartment.

"Seriously Julie. What's the rush? its 8:30 in the morning" I said shutting the door behind her.

"The stores a complete mess none of the lazy logs we employ are any good at there job so now we need to go there and crack the whip!" She complained sitting down on my sofa

"You should hire better staff then" I told her pulling on a plain black t-shirt.

"Oh don't give me that. My great- grandfather hired you for God sake. Talk about poor decisions in staff employment"

"If it wasn't for Ciel 'hiring' me as you put it you wouldn't even exist today"

"Good point. Anyway let's roll. I've got a big day ahead of me being the CEO of Funtom Co. Hey that rhythms" She said jumping of my sofa and swinging her car keys on her finger

"Okay. Let's go. I need to be home early today remember it's Sunday" I told her grabbing my jacket and following her out the door.

"Oh yeah... Bassy, when are you ever going to let this girl go. I mean she left you and know your only meetings are in a magical dream land every Sunday....I'm sorry but I can't see it being much of a relationship" She said again for the third time this month

"I can't just let her go. I love her. Besides its complicated. Humans like you would never understand" I told her jumping into the passenger seat of her car.

"Oh yeah I forgot Demon love stories....way more complicated than human love stories...speaking of love, Liam called against night......" She began

I listened as she blabbed on about her latest boyfriend. I didn't really care in all honesty I just couldn't wait until later. I missed her so much.
