A Love Story

Chapter 4

{Ciel's POV}

I woke up in soft, silked blankets wrapped around me and noticed that I was on my bed and I was still wearing the same clothes that I was in yesterday. I figured Sebastian must have put me here after I fell asleep on him yesterday. I still remember the dream that I had yesterday, well I can't really call it a dream more like a nightmare. A shiver ran down my spine just thinking about it. I also remember myself pouring out all of my emotions to my butler. Uh! Now he'll have something else to tease me with! I feel really stupid for crying, but in front of him is even more ridiculous and what's worse is that I let my self seek him for comfort. He's sure to laugh at me for my despicable behavior. Why do I have to be such an idiot, I should really start being careful with my emotions unless I want someone to see how weak I am. Just as I was about to get up and find Sebastian, he came in with a tray carrying my tea.

"Young master I see that you have wakened." He said casually. I stayed silent and nodded my head in response. He set the tray down on the nightstand and came towards me and kneeled down to my eye level. It felt strange for him to do that since he usually dresses me up for the day and gives me tea, but instead he's kneeling down and looking deep into my eyes. I can see the longing and devotion in his beautiful crimson eyes, I just wish I knew what or who had gotten him to feel any sort of intense emotion like that?

"Young master are you alright? You did give me quite a startle last night." He said worry evident in his voice. This is really unnatural behavior from Sebastian, he wouldn't really ask for my emotional well being unless he said it in a sarcastic or teasing way, which he would only do to piss me off, but it's clear to me that he wasn't teasing me and is actually worried for me. I'm at lost for words that I just kept staring at him with wide eyes that I didn't grespond to him. He had to wave his hand in front of my face in order for me to snapped out of my state of shock.

"Young Master are you alright? Hello is anyone in there?" He said a little worry shown on his gorgeous face.

"I-I- I'm fine Sebastian." I stuttered a bit, still trying to regain my posture from my little trance. He looked sceptical when I answered, and he put his gloved hand over my forehead.

"Are you sure my lord? You did seem very upset last night with something, and you don't usually get upset over something that easy and I'm curious to know what that something might be, that got my master so upset." He said worryingly.

"It-it it's n-n nothing...." I stuttered out. In reality I wasn't fine. I'm still kinda freaked out about the dream I had about Claude. I don't know if it was a dream or a message from him to me. It was too real to be a dream, I know that. I just hope it doesn't come true, cause I don't to be more traumatized than I already am. I'm just glad that I woke up here with Sebastian still by my side whenever I need him.

"Master I beg you to please tell me what's bothering you, it pains me to have to see you in distress. You know that if something is bothering you, you'll always have me to take care of it until our contract is complete, my lord." He said, pleading me with his eyes.

I really want to tell him of my nightmare but I'm not so sure what he'll say or do. He does seem like he is very worried about me and he isn't trying to tease me so far. I think I'll tell him since he is the only person that I can trust and he won't lie to me, so guess I should tell him.

"O-okay I'll tell you, but don't mention this conversation to anyone else besides you and me." I said strictly to him, wanting him to understand that I'm being serious about this.

"I-I I had a dream last night, well more like a nightmare, that scared me." I said a little embarrassed that I'm talking about this with my butler. I'm nervous about saying what happened in my nightmare, so I just stayed quiet waiting for him to respond as if to give me more time to gather what I'm about share with my butler.
