Beep. Beep. Beep. Beep.

Ciel groaned and tried to sit up. "I need a new alarm clock...." He said.

"Ciel?" Sebastian's voice sounded. Ciel couldn't pin point it, but the next thing he knew he was attacked by a hug. A....big squeezing hug. "Oh, my little Ciel! How are you? Are you okay? Do you want anything to eat? Drink? I can get you anything!" Sebastian ranted and held Ciel close.

In Ciel's mind, he was genuinely confused. His vision cleared, and he realized he was in a hospital bed. All the memories came back to him, the fainting, the pens, Sebastian yelling at h- ........wait a minute....was Sebastian being nice to him?

Ciel looked down and saw Sebastian looking extremely relieved and happy. "My precious....I thought you weren't going to be able to move when you woke up. You've been asleep for three days." Sebastian explained and Ciel gasped.

Ciel wanted to shove him away and tell him that somethings wrong with him because....you know...being all compassionate? But, he knew he'd get yelled at if he said things like that.

The doctor walked in, and he smiled. "Ah, Ciel is finally awake." He walked over to them and checked one of the machines. "You know, your husband never left you while you were here. In his exact words: I'll only leave when my beautiful husband has awaken."

Ciel panicked. Something was definitely wrong with Sebastian! Since when does he get called beautiful? Never! Sebastian snuggled his face into Ciel's torso and sighed happily. "My beautiful little precious....." He said.

Ciel passed out.

When he woke up, he wasn't at the hospital, the couch, or in his bed. He knew what this room was, but he couldn't comprehend why.....just...why....he was in Sebastian's bed. Ciel figured he was on some sort of drug when he was at the hospital, because when he tried to sit up, he felt sick. Extremely sick. Headache pounded his head and his muscles were more sore than when he was demanded that he fix up the front yard, and that was a two day non stop process.

Ciel lifted the covers off of him and chills went all over his body. He was so cold. He looked over at the clock and saw it was near nine pm. "The schedule...." Ciel remembered and forced himself out of bed and waddled to the kitchen because of his sore legs and the fact that he hasn't touched the ground well over three days.

He put a pot on the stove and turned on the burner, filling it with water to make spaghetti. He almost fell over about ten times, but it wasn't anything to him. All he had to do was make Sebastian happy so he wouldn't get yelled at.

Speaking of Sebastian, he walked into the kitchen and saw Ciel attempting to make dinner. "Baby! What are you doing?" He said and ran to Ciel, picking him up gingerly and holding him close. "Uh...ngg.....dinner....schedule..." Ciel could barely get out.

"Baby, there is no way you can make dinner! You're sick!" Sebastian said. He carried Ciel back to his bedroom and placed him back under the covers. "But...but..." Ciel tried to say. "What is it?" Sebastian asked. "Never mind.." Ciel whispered. "Ciel, you can tell me anything." Sebastian said. "No... I can't..." Ciel whispered.

"What do you mean you can't?" Sebastian asked.

"Because...because I'll get yelled at..." Ciel said, on the verge of tears.

"Oohh.....I see....Ciel, listen to me." Sebastian said, grabbing Ciel's face softly. "I now understand that....well...I have been the worst husband in history. For too long. After I saw you in the hospital dying...well...I felt a pang of emotion and realization." Ciel's eyes grew wider with each word. "Ciel...it's never going to be like that ever again. We are going to be a happy family for now on. I won't yell at you, I won't tell you to do things, and we will start being more open with each other." Sebastian explained.

Ciel's mouth opened slightly. "And...thank you for those pens. They are wonderful and I love them." Sebastian said. He looked deeply into Ciel's eyes. "But, I love you even more." He said. He leaned in to kiss Ciel, but the boy panicked and pushed his face back with his hand.

"I'm sorry...I'm not ready...." He said. "Oh...oh I understand. How about I turn on the tv for you? And, I'll make dinner tonight. How about that?" Sebastian said. Ciel blinked as the tv flashed onto a random channel. Sebastian left the room and closed the door slightly. Ciel breathed heavily at what just happened. "Okay.. I should just relax and figure this out later. Maybe watching tv can help...right?" He took notice of the unused  Xbox One sitting on the shelf underneath the tv, and remembered what Sebastian told him while he looked at the Game Stop store again.

He watched the show for a little bit, but then fell asleep.

He woke up later because he had felt someone kiss his jawline tenderly and a hand rubbing his cheek. He saw it was Sebastian with the car keys. "Hey baby...I'm going out for a bit and I was wondering what you wanted in that store from the other day. I can get you whatever you want." He said. "Whatever I want?" Ciel thought.

He thought for a little bit and remembered a game Alois told him about. "Can I have...uh...a game called Skyrim? Alois said it was good." He asked quietly, and then braced himself for Sebastian to yell at him. "You want to use the Xbox? Of course, I can get it for you, baby! Oh! And here is dinner." He said and gave Ciel a plate of spaghetti and a coke can. "I just used what you left out...is it alright?" He asked.

Ciel looked at it for a few seconds. "Yes...it's alright. Thank you." He said. Sebastian smiled and he received another kiss on the cheek. "I'll be right back, baby. Love you." He said and left the room.

Ciel was blushing.
