『Chapter 25』

You awoke to the same dream, his life just calling at you. Over and over and over. You massaged your forehead softly, washing off the thought. You heard a couple of knocks on your door as if it knew when did you wake up. You took in a deep breath, knowing who it was, you didn't bother to reply. So instead, you made your way to the bathroom. Just as you closed the door to the bathroom, the door to the bedroom opened.

"Y/n? Are you here?" Sebastian's voice rang out. He managed to catch a glimpse of you closing the bathroom door, thus he made his way to the door, lightly knocking. "I don't want to see you." You called out before he could say a word. Sebastian sighed, pressing a hand to the door. "Then don't. I just want you to hear me, please."

You huffed a breath, fixing your hair as you looked at your reflection in the mirror. "Fine... Talk." You simply replied.

Sebastian took a deep breath, thinking about how should he put this through. "I know what I did was wrong. I deserve you to treat me this way. I don't expect you to forgive me but... I'm sorry. You're right. It was dumb of me to not think about your feelings or the women's. I was too focused on doing my job that I forget about you. I'm sorry I let you down." He spoke up from the bottom of his heart, hoping you would actually listen to him.

On the other side, you were somewhat amused at his apology. At least he was being honest and admitted he was guilty, it made you curved your lips into a smile. You looked at the door, imagining his face. Though you were disappointed in him, he said what he said. He didn't realise what he actually did until you pointed it out. "I love you, Y/n. And I'm sorry." At that, you walked to the door, opening it and met up with his gaze. He looked surprised as if he didn't expect you to open the door that quick.

"Y/n... I am-" before he could say another word that would probably kill the mood, you yanked his collar, pulling him down and crashed your lips to his. Closing your eyes, you tilted your head, feeling his hands slithered to your waist. He pulled you close, body flushed against each other, he reached a hand behind the back of your head. He didn't want to go further, though he could, he didn't want to make you feel uncomfortable.

He pulled away, you didn't realize your cheeks flushed at the kiss you initiated. Sebastian smirked a little, "What was that for?" He questioned. You brushed your thumb to your bottom lip, smiling at him. "What? Can't I just kiss the idiot I fell in love with?" You grinned.

He chuckled deeply, grabbing your hands, peppering them with kisses. "Sure. I'm an idiot. Your idiot." You grinned along with him as he pressed his forehead against yours. "I'm sorry I acted that way, Kitten." He apologised once more.

You hummed softly, "It's fine... I'm still not okay with it but... I knew you didn't mean it." You replied. Sebastian seemed amused by your approval. He pulled off, "Now, for today's activity." He said, grabbing a dress he prepared for you. To your surprise, it wasn't an extravagant dress you used to wear on special occasions. It was just a normal dress, not too preppy, could say, it was your style.

"A boy, I reckon?" Said Joker as he met Ciel for the first time. The three of you made it back to the circus. You were surprised the folks didn't recognize Ciel. "Yes. I've been in service as a pageboy." Ciel said pretending that he was nothing important. He wore an outfit that a little town boy would wear, not his usual attire.

"My name is... Finnian." Ciel introduced himself, using a fake name.

"Well, we'll give you a stage name if you pass," Joker remarked. Everyone went to the test court to witness the examination. There was a target board marked with a heart in the middle a few meters away from where you stood.
