Suddenly I was being pulled back through the door inside. My eyes still shut and my body still very warm. I knew I was in Sebastian's arms, I knew his touch, I know his scent. When I opened them we were in one of the unused parlor rooms. He held me in his arms as he kissed me gently and I winced in pain, "Sara what are you doing?" Still trying to figure out why his kiss hurt just a little on my skin I reached up and he pulled my hands away before I could touch my skin, quietly telling me, "Don't please." I saw the look of panic in his eyes and I began to try to break free from his arms and see what he was seeing. He eventually let me go and met me at the mirror. My face was burned and bruised, I collapsed to the floor, crying hovering my hands over my face to hide, he sat down next to me, "How long were you in the sun my love?" I sobbed but answered his question, "Not very long, perhaps 15 minutes." He pulled my hands away from my face and his face lit up in shock as he ran his fingers across my skin and it didn't hurt. I sprang up off the floor and looked in the mirror again, my skin was not burned or bruised anymore. He stood up slowly taking my hand, "We need to talk but first let's get you cooled off. Your body is still far too warm." "But I need to get Ciel his tea!" I replied. "My kitten I have already taken care of that." as he pulled me quickly to his bedroom.

"Ok now let me help you get undressed I have put cool water in the tub for you" he ordered. I did not have the will or strength to tease or argue so I watched him undress me and place me in the tub. The water was cool and refreshing as I sat down, it seemed to calm the suffocating feeling and I felt less sick. I watched as he removed his gloves and rolled up his sleeves letting my entire body fall under the water. My hair swam around my face as my limbs were pulled up by the water. I could sense him watching me. As I lifted my face out of the water sitting up in the tub I felt the cool water pour across my back. Sebastian took a washcloth and began to drip water gently across my shoulders til the heat from my skin was gone. I pulled my knees to my chest crying silently. "Sara, come here" Sebastian said with open arms. I held my arms out to him he picked up me wrapping me in a towel and carried me to his bed. I didn't want to speak, I didn't want to know, I didn't want to think.

He laid me down on the bed still wrapped in the towel, I feared he was leaving so I grabbed his hand, "Please don't go Sebastian." "Oh my love, I am not leaving you" as he went around the bed climbing in next to me. He removed the towel and examined my body for any burns or bruises, in a sigh of relief he confirmed, "They are all gone." I curled up next to him as he wrapped the towel back around me, "I'm sorry Sebastian if I scared you." "You have no reason to apologize I am just relieved you are okay. Did you need feel the pain?" he asked. I explained that I felt very hot and I literally couldn't move, I told him how I felt after helping Mey-Rin with her cut and how I felt suffocated and needed air which is why I went outside. He watched me as I spoke and when my expression changed, "Are you ok Sara?" I took a deep breath as I smelled something strange, "I smell something but don't know what it is. I've never smelled anything like it before. It's dissipating now, nevermind."

The look on his face is one I'd not seen before, "Sara, I am very concerned about you and I feel what I found out will help us both understand more. I used Grell to gain access to your mother and father's cinematic record." I started to make a comment about Grell, Sebastian cut in, "I know it's Grell and despite Grell’s efforts nothing happened. Using Grell was the most efficient way to see what happened to both your parents and gain any information that will help. Now didn't you say that she died after your family moved to England when you were 13?" "Yes, I remember she got sick during our move to London. On the boat I remember her getting weaker as we traveled. I remembered just recently an argument my parents had about her not eating" I said realizing that I hadn't told Sebastian about the fight I remembered. "How long ago did you remember that?" he asked as if my eyes had told him the answer already. "It was the day that you found me outside asleep and my intention was to tell you but then Lady Elizabeth was kidnapped and it just didn't feel like the right time" I replied sheepishly. He took my chin in his hand and looked into my eyes, "There is no wrong time when it comes to you. Please realize this Sara, I not only want to know I desire to know." I smiled turning my chin to kiss his hand, "So what did the cinematic record show about my Mother?" He took a deep breathe, "Well my love there is no easy way to say this but her cinematic record shows she died when she was 7 months pregnant with you."
