Lucifer's Lovely Sisters-(Black Butler/ Kuroshitsuji fanfiction)

Chapter Twelve

"I'll miss you"

Ciel mumbles incoherently in response.

"I'm sorry? What'd you say? I couldn't hear properly."

The boy sighs "Nothing" he says tightly "Goodbye"

He turns on his heel to climb up the carriage. Sienna grasps his arm mid-step, pulling him toward her.

He spins around, as she expected, allowing her to embrace him against his will. Ciel squirms against her, his arms crushed between them. She tightens her grip, silently instructing him to stop moving. "Come with, Ciel."

He freezes, smiling wickedly "Why? Because you'll miss me too much?" Ciel breaks from her hold "No. I have work to do and duties to complete. I cannot simply abandon my station."

"Don't get ahead of yourself, little lord. I merely desired you to accompany me so that I could have someone to entertain me. Sebastian can only be my play thing for a little while before I get bored." she says

"No"

Her face wrinkles in displeasure "Oh, come on! Please?!"

"No"

"Fine. Be that way." she storms away childishly.

Ciel shakes his head bashfully.

He re-enters his carriage, pausing at loud shouting. "Bye! I know you'll miss me, and I didn't want to deprive you of your chance to see me off!"

The Earl's eye twitches. Ciel raises his hand in acknowledgement. "Yes, goodbye" he mutters.

He sits down on the cushioned seats of the transportation, cherishing one of the few moments he has to relax. The hired driver continues without a word, nothing needing to be communicated, as Sebastian had already directed and paid him.

The rhythmic beat of the horses' hooves lull him to sleep.

Ciel awakes to rocking, slushing water, and the slapping of water..

Boat. A boat. He's in a boat. What exactly did that crazy girl do this time?

"Ah, you're finally awake, sleepyhead. You look so peaceful when you sleep, ya' know?"

"Wh-what?" he stutters "Why are you watching me sleep? Where am I? I demand you return me to the manor immediately!"

"Sorry, but no can do. We're already miles from shore. Unless you want to swim back?"

Ciel turns his head away from her mocking expression, just now noticing the fresh air. It's so nice to be away from everybody.

"It's nice out, huh?" Sienna asks, not needing nor desiring an answer.

The boy stands up, dusting himself off. He heads to the railing bordering the edge of the ship. It comes to about his chest. Sienna follows suit. No words are spoken between the two, only the sounds of the sea.

Suddenly, a bubbling in his stomach causes him to clutch his belly. His face pales, and his eyes dilate.

The woman crouches down next to him, her sapphire eyes concerned "Ciel? Are you okay?"

No answer. He shakes his head rapidly. She picks him up bridal-style easily, carrying him to the nearest bathroom. Only moments later, he upchucks into the toilet. She soothingly rubs his back, but retches silently, cringing away from the ill boy.

When he finishes, she asks several questions relating to his illness, which is revealed to be sea sickness. "Don't worry, little lord. It'll go away within a couple of hours, You'll get used to it eventually, and when we get to America, you might have trouble with getting your land legs back."
