Claude POV

I looked down at the kid, trying to keep my face unemotional as he sobbed. Lately his blue eyes had been completely blank, as he often starred off into the distance, thinking. I'd watched him to it several times.

He'd stare off with vacant eyes, staying extremely still for a while, but soon his eyes would well up slightly and he would stare at the ground, avoiding eye contact and blinking constantly.

"What are you crying for?" I asked. Ciel just shook his head and got up.

Ciel POV

Ugh, I'm a mess. I sighed as I got up, regretting that I let someone see me cry.
"..I'm sorry you had too see that," I answered, my voice hoarse. I turned and inspected myself in the mirror, checking to see if it was that obvious that I'd been crying. Unfortunately, it seemed that it was. My face was red, and blotchy, my eyes were bloodshot and tear streaks were visible on my cheeks.

Claude looked away from me, disgusted.
"Get to class Phantomive" was his only response. I miserably walked out, heading to class...40 minutes late. So far, this hasn't my best day.
