Sebastian's Daughter

7 years old

I was sitting in my room feeling so much better that I was the day before strumming on my acoustic guitar when a song popped in my head. I closed my eyes trying to remember the words and chords to the song. My eyes stay closed as I start singing confidently.

Once I was seven years old my momma told me
Go make yourself some friends or you'll be lonely
Once I was seven years old

It was a big big world, but we thought we were bigger
Pushing each other to the limits, we were learning quicker
By eleven smoking herb and drinking burning liquor
Never rich so we were out to make that steady figure

Once I was eleven years old my daddy told me
Go get yourself a wife or you'll be lonely
Once I was eleven years old

I always had that dream like my daddy before me
So I started writing songs, I started writing stories
Something about that glory just always seemed to bore me
'Cause only those I really love will ever really know me

Once I was twenty years old, my story got told
Before the morning sun, when life was lonely
Once I was twenty years old

I only see my goals, I don't believe in failure
'Cause I know the smallest voices, they can make it major
I got my boys with me at least those in favor
And if we don't meet before I leave, I hope I'll see you later

Once I was twenty years old, my story got told
I was writing about everything, I saw before me
Once I was twenty years old
Soon we'll be thirty years old, our songs have been sold
We've traveled around the world and we're still roaming
Soon we'll be thirty years old

I'm still learning about life
My woman brought children for me
So I can sing them all my songs
And I can tell them stories
Most of my boys are with me
Some are still out seeking glory
And some I had to leave behind
My brother I'm still sorry

Soon I'll be sixty years old, my daddy got sixty-one
Remember life and then your life becomes a better one
I made a man so happy when I wrote a letter once
I hope my children come and visit, once or twice a month

Soon I'll be sixty years old, will I think the world is cold
Or will I have a lot of children who can warm me
Soon I'll be sixty years old
Soon I'll be sixty years old, will I think the world is cold
Or will I have a lot of children who can warm me
Soon I'll be sixty years old

Once I was seven years old, momma told me
Go make yourself some friends or you'll be lonely
Once I was seven years old

Once I was seven years old

I sigh as my eyes open to see a royal blue eye hovering over me. I squeal and sit up only to hit the person in the head. I see that its Ciel and instantly regret what I did.

"Oh my dad is going to kill me! I'm so sorry Ciel!" I said frantically as I start to get up only to feel him gently push me back down.

"I'm alright. You're still sick. You must stay in bed and don't worry about Sebastian. I doubt he will hurt you."

"What are you doing in here anyway? I thought you had work to do?" I said completely confused as he lays down with me. I look at his eye patch and place my hand over top of it. I feel warmth over top of my hand as I look into his blue eyes. 

"I did have to work dear. I heard something and had come to investigate only to find you singing. It was very lovely. You know... You have never actually told me about your mother before." He said to me placing a hand on my cheek moving his thumb in small circles. A small tear slips down my cheek as I look down at my Black, grey, and white bedding. "What is it Bri? Was is something I said?" He said looking at me worriedly. 

"I would love to talk about my mom but I've never met her... Dad wont tell me about her and I hardly ever ask anyways. He is probably still hurting so I've stopped asking. I used to ask all the time before he started contracts but all he would say was "Not now Sabrina. I'm not ready." I said mimicking his voice making Ciel chuckle. 

"I have an idea. How are you feeling right now?" He said sitting up.

"Better than ever! Why?" I asked sitting up with him.

"Come with me dear." He stood up and before I could stand up he picked me up bridal style making me squeal and giggle. We walked out of my room and into his study where my dad was with an angry face that vanished into a blank expression.

"My lord where did you run off to? Why do you have Sabrina?" my dad asked raising a brow as I shrug.

"Don't look at me! This is his doing!" I said as Ciel sat me down in a chair in front of his desk.

"Sebastian your orders. Who was Sabrina's mother and why did you put off telling her for so long" Ciel said as he sat down in his chair a serious look on his face. 

A/N Hey Cupcakes! I'm back with another update! I know I suck at updating but im really trying! Cross my heart! I have learned my favorite quote from Hamlet in french! Its "Pour être ou ne pas être telle est la question." or "To be or not to be that is the question."

Anywayyy... Imma go! Stay Strong! Stay Beautiful! Stay You and I love you!
