I'll Love You Forever: Ciel X Reader

45. Guilt

After you were taken away by the mysterious cloaked people, Ciel would not stop pacing around alone in his office. He was waiting for Sebastian and Laura and the servants to come back with possible news of you.

'(Y/N), please be safe.' Ciel thought.

He kept looking out the window. He could only see the remains of the destroyed garden. Ciel just stared at the bush you and Finny were trimming and felt sorry. A part of him died on the inside knowing part of your abduction was his fault.

Sebastian walked into the room with an unusual expression. He came back after a failed attempt of looking for a single trace or clue for finding you.

"Did you find (Y/N)? Or any clues to find her?" Ciel said desperately.

The butler just shook his head no. "I am terribly sorry, master. No trace was left behind. It's almost as if the people were not human." He closed the door and piled a bookcase on it.

"Damn it. How could this happen?" Ciel sat in his chair and put his hand on his forehead with a long sigh. He noticed the bookcase on the door. "Why is there a bookcase on the door, Sebastian?"

Sebastian stepped away from the door. "Brace yourself, master."

Just then, the doors were kicked down. With that much force used, it sent the bookcase flying out the window and Ciel just barely dodged it. Laura walked in with a negative aura surrounding her.

Laura's eyes were not her normal brown anymore. They were now glowing brightly in pink. She charged at Ciel and made him stand up. She grabbed his shirt collar with one hand and pinned him harshly against a wall. She caused Ciel to choke a little.

"S-Seba- Sebastian...." Ciel called for Sebastian's help but he just watched.

Laura had her vision locked on Ciel's eye. "This is all your fault! If only you calmed down with your useless jealously this wouldn't have happened!" She tightened her grip on Ciel's shirt collar and lifted him off the floor. The shirt started to rip.

"I— I—" Ciel started.

"Shut up! You better find her soon! She's my friend and I'll make your life a living hell if you don't find her! Got it?" Laura yelled.

Ciel nodded quickly. "Yes, I understand! Now let me go!" Ciel couldn't breathe anymore.

Laura realized what she was doing and let Ciel go. Ciel fell to the floor.

Her eyes turned back to her normal brown eyes. She fell, too. "I'm sorry, Ciel... It's just that (Y/N) is very special to me."

Ciel fixed his collar. "I know. I feel sorry that I couldn't do anything to keep her safe. I feel like I contributed the most to this event."

Laura patted Ciel's back. "It's not your fault. We all did our best to get (Y/N) back."

Sebastian finally came to join in on the conversation. "Yes, we did."

"Now I see why you had your distance." Ciel said to Sebastian.

"Don't mess with females and their friends." Sebastian said.

Laura rolled her eyes. "You're too formal."

Once the atmosphere was calmer, the rest of the servants came in through the door. Tanaka, Snake, Mey-Rin, Bardroy, and Finny stood in the middle of the room with Tanaka in the corner with Sebastian. Their eyes were glued to the floor.

"Well... What did you find?" Ciel asked.

No one answered.

Mey-Rin stepped up, her glasses still off her face. "We looked all around town and asked everyone in town, too. No one knew anything."
