End of Heartache, the Continued Case of.... (Sebastian x Reader)

Chapter 7

Sebastian's POV

"What do you mean there's more? How much more can there be?" I asked her.

"There's more to our story than just that. Unfortunately its not all good news" She said that glow in her eyes dimming slightly. 

I pulled her closer and kissed her forehead. I had only just got her back and i hated to see her so upset so soon. "No matter what you say it wont change anything between us. I love you now and for the eternity we have together"

"How long is your eternity? As it may not be as long as you think" She mumbled 

"What do mean?" I asked confused by her statement. 

"I get it." Julie suddenly pipped up "Im guessing that as part of her soul is still human it can still die like humans do?" 

I looked over at _____ completely mortified by the very idea of what Julie said. "Is that what you mean? Please say it isn't" I begged

"Afraid so. However it's not quite like she put it. My soul is still majority human, hence why I can eat and taste human food, why I need at least 4 hours of sleep unlike you who doesn't need any. It why I was told I can have children and why I was pregnant when I left." She told me.

My whole world was once again shattered. She was pregnant. We were going to have a baby. Its a good thing I didn't need oxygen because I just stopped breathing. 

"You were pregnant?" I managed to say.

"Yes" She breathed starting to cry. "But because like a human, my body still gets weak and the strain having a baby put on my body was too much........I almost died to give birth to a lifeless child." 

I pulled her even closer to me. I cried silent tears, not for the loss of our child but for the pain it had clearly put her through. I cried for the fact that I wasn't there with her to help her. 

Soon though she began to speak again. "This is how the spirits found out that I was vulnerable to certain aspects just like a human. It means our eternity may be cut down drastically....all because of me.....you could be killed all because of me" 

"Then we'll just have to treasure every moment we have together. Besides I just found you again, and nothing is going to take away the happiness i'm feeling right now due to that" 

She just buried her head into my shoulder and began to cry. It was at this point that I noticed Julie had sneaked out. Pulling her head gently from my shoulder I cupped her cheeks in my hands. Using my thumbs to wipe away her tears I began to speak again. "Kitten listen to me. Its my turn to explain something to you. While you were gone I was lost. Nothing mattered any more. The only thing that I had purpose for was completing the convent with Ciel and once that was complete, nothing. For almost a hundred years the one thing I lived for was those few hours a week I would see you again. Nothing else mattered to me. I went on the rogue as such. I killed who ever I wanted whenever I wanted. I had been the most lost I had ever been. Then Julie was born. I looked into her eyes and i saw that familiar glow that was always present in yours. My new purpose became to protect her. I thought I if I could protect her it would be like having a second chance with you. So for 17 years I looked out for her.  Protected her from all the evil's in this world and on her 18th birthday i finally confronted her. Do you know what she said? She said that she knew all along. She thought she had a guardian angel. She punched me in the face when she found out I was a demon and not an angel. It was her that i told all about you to. It was her that gave me a new purpose and do you know what? It still was torture with you gone. And when i thought you were dead she tried to help me. I think its time for a new purpose. The one purpose i want to have. To look after you and be there for you forever. I want to protect you like I protected Julie. I want you to be here with me and i want you to be the reason i go on. So if i die because i failed to protect you it will be worthy punishment." 

"Sebastian...dont say that" She began.

"I will say that. Its the truth. I will protect you no matter what. Because you are my purpose for living. Julie may have brought me back from the edge but you saved me. A day with you back in my arms is all it took for you to save me because that's how much control you have over me. That's how much love I have for you." 

"I....I love you too. And more than mere words can express" She whispered against my lips.

The breath of space between us closed as our lips met. It was at that moment my entire world came joining back together and became whole. It was at that moment I felt our very soul entwine and I knew I could never be without her.
