Can I Have You?

A Day Without Claude

Sebastian: You got a job?

Claude stood in the doorway of the kitchen while Grell was surfing the internet and Sebastian was making lunch. Claude's face was filled with joy, Sebastian's face was filled with sadness, and Grell's face was filled with uninterest.

Claude: Yeah! I need to start making more money and I got a job as a tutor!

Sebastian: But what about me? I wanted to spend all day with you.

Claude: You do that a lot. Today you'll just have to spend a day without me. I have a kid that I need to teach soon.

Sebastian ran over to Claude and gripped onto his clothes. Claude smiled at Sebastian and enjoyed how cute Sebastian looked. He was like a child that didn't want their parents to drop them off at school so that they could go to work.

Sebastian: I don't want to be separated from you. You're everything to me. Please say that you're joking.

Claude: No not at all. Don't you see? This is a good thing. I can get so much more for us. Anyway, I have to get going. See you.

Claude kissed Sebastian's forehead and Sebastian tried to come up with a way to get Claude from leaving, but all he could say was...

Sebastian: I'll miss you.

~Time Skip~

Sebastian was talking about his problems to a still uninterested Grell.

Sebastian: He didn't even consider how I felt about it. Why did he seem so amused when he saw that I didn't like that he got a job. Now I don't get to cuddle with him and talk about my problems to SOMEONE WHO CARES! What if I get hungry and he's not here? What will I do? I bet his job's not even that important.

That was what caught Grell's attention.

Grell: Are you kidding? He's helping so many people!

Sebastian: Huh?

In a flash, Sebastian was sat at a desk and Grell was in teacher mode.

Grell: He's working for a company called T.F.D.K. It stands for Tutors For Dyslexic Kids. He helps kids with dyslexia since they have trouble learning to read or interpret letters, words, or other symbols correctly. He's being a good person and helping them.

Sebastian: Yeah. That does sound like Claude. I just wish that he could stay with me every day and maybe you could have that job instead.

Grell: I've learned from babysitting that I don't work well with children. Don't even try to force me.

Sebastian just sighed and put his head down on the desk. How was he going to get Claude to stop working and not make it sound bad. He couldn't come with an idea and just started to cry.

Sebastian: I WANT MY CLAUDE!!!

Grell: He'll come back in a few hours. Just be patient.

Sebastian tried to hold back the rest of the tears, but he failed miserably and it seemed the room was being filled with the liquid.

~1 Hour Later~

Grell had gotten Sebastian to take a nap since he was tired of having to deal with Sebastian's constant whining.

Grell: I love him, but sometimes he's just annoying.

He kept surfing the internet until he heard talking from Sebastian's room so he went to go investigate. He stopped right outside of the room and listened.

Sebastian: Hey Claude!

Of course, he would talk to him on the phone. Maybe Claude was on his break.
