Every Demon's Curse (Sebastian x Ciel | SebaCiel)

A Demon's Lover

*Important note at the bottom, kindly read once you're done with this chap.*

The moment that every single soul from the hall was gone, leaving the tall figure in the dark, and the pale young boy standing in the middle of the stairs, Sebastian wasted no time and dashed towards the smirking boy. Eyeing his master with disbelief yet still wasn't fully convinced that he had not dreamt of it all.

Ciel cleared his throat. Certain that any more second that Sebastian's eyes lock unto him and his cheeks would surely be ablaze once more.

"Well.. Are we supposed to stand here like complete fools or just.. Ah!.." Wordlessly, the demon yanked the boy from his wrist and pulled him into the tightest embrace he could ever muster without actually injuring him, showering the crown of slate locks with sweet and feathery kisses filled with affection. Still cannot believe he was holding him dearly inside his arms.

"Am I really right to assume that you feel the same way as I? What caused you to change your mind? Are you willing to give me another chance?" Sebastian softly asked, cradling the bluenette while gently rubbing circles against his small back. A gesture that almost made the young earl inside his arms melt from within. After a soft hum of satisfaction from his demon's touch, Ciel detached himself from Sebastian in way of his order.

"Prepare me for bed and I shall tell you all of it in my bedroom.." He muttered, silently recalling how a few hours of thinking lead him to one of the biggest decision of his life, through the help of his now ex-fiancé..

"Have you been crying?!" Asked Lizzy as she eyed the young boy carefully. Taking notice that the usual blue eye full of pride seemed clouded with forlorn and was surrounded with red rims.

"No." Ciel plainly said, not bothering to stiffle up his broken voice.

The pair of green eyes rolled in place, followed by a small snort of annoyance.

"You may have just one eye exposed, but that does make it any less puffy. And do you have the slightest idea of how red your nose is as of the moment?" Ciel gave a weak glare, strength drained by the pain inside his chest, thoughts flooded by his demon butler's crestfallen expression.

"Am I to hear all about it? Or shall I ask him instead?" The female challenged. A harsh gasp followed by an instant snap of the earl's head was the response, oblivious about the fact that Elizabeth had already done just that, the night prior.

"Don't! I.. I'll tell you all of it.. Just n-not in here." Ciel muttered, eye of blue scanning the place suspiciously.

After leaving the ball unannounced, making way towards the beautiful rose garden, the pair sat side by side, Ciel being the first one to speak as he retold Sebastian's every action, every word, and every emotion through words from his trembling lips. Recalling the way his alluring face cloud with anguish, clenching Ciel's insides once again, exposed and tired sapphire again threatens to shed tears of pain. Still he told her the whole story without falter, not wanting to appear even more pathetic than how he does as of then.

Silence engulfed the pair once more after Ciel finished his story, eyeing the blond nervously, secretly pleading help as his desperate one stared at Lizzy's emerald orbs.
