Things started to fall into a comfortable routine for everyone. Ciel was taking online classes and enjoyed staying home and taking a break from his usual hell. The servants would work and help Ciel if he ever needed, but he rarely asked. When Sebastian came home, he would great the three adults then lounge in the living room with Ciel. One night he came home with startling news. "Ciel, tonight your going to meet someone special to me. My boyfriend Claude and his son. Ive never met his son so I don't know much about him, but I want you to meet him and hopefully you'll like him. I want you to know that you're my priority though ok and that I wont ignore you for him ok" he said and Ciel nodded.
It was around 6 in the evening when they heard a knock at the door. Sebastian opened it and embraced the tall black haired man with glasses. Once they pulled apart, he noticed the boy with him. He was a tallish blonde boy, with a sweet smile and colorful clothes. "Sebastian, I understand what happened with our kids but he is sorry and I don't want it to change our relationship" Claude almost begged and stepped in front a Alois protectively. Sebastian sighed but smiled at the two. " I guess we need to put the past behind us right, no Claude this wont change anything between us, but I don't know how Ciel will react" he said and called down his son. As soon as he entered, his eye went wide and he almost started to panic. "Ciel this is Claude and Alois Trancy" Sebastian introduced and explained that Alois was sorry and he felt bad for what he did. Once everyone was acquainted, they moved to the living room and talked a little bit more until they were called into the dining room for dinner. Ciel barely ate and continued to shake with fear. Alois felt horrible because he was the one to cause his fears. Once the others were done, Ciel excused himself to go upstairs and thats when Sebastian explained Ciels situation and made Alois feel like trash even more.
Over the next few weeks, Claude and Alois started coming over more to try and get the two kids to bond. Alois was all for it, but Ciel,not so much. He hid in his room and only came out when Sebastian made him. Both adults did there best to help the two boys connect but Ciel was still terrified of Alois. The day they decided to leave the two boys home alone together was nerve wracking for everyone.
Sebastian and Claude made sure both boys knew there numbers and were going to ok, they left for there date night. Ciel and Alois sat on the same couch, but decided to keep quiet. Alois watched tv while Ciel sat on his laptop. Every once in a while, Ciel would sight softly or his breath would hitch. After a while, Ciel set his laptop on the coffee table and walked away. Alois let his curiosity get the better of him and took a look at was on the screen. He gasped at all the horrid messages written to him and was angered to see that his three friends were in on it. In an angered rage, he messaged back all the people on his own phone and tore into the kids who dared to pick on him. When Ciel came back, Alois was sitting back in his original position, trying not to crack a smile. Ciel looked back at his laptop and saw a mixture of apologizes and more threats. When he found out that Alois was behind it, he flipped. "Why are you going through my messages and sticking up for me. That's not what you're suppose to do" he ranted leaving Alois confused. "I was protecting you" he defended making Ciel angrier. "WHY WOULD WANT TO PROTECT ME, YOU BEAT ME UP AND TRIED TO MOLEST ME SO WHY" he yelled, shaking with rage. When Ciel finished, he covered him mouth with his hands and repressed his sobs. Alois stood up and carefully wrapped his arms around Ciel. He flinched at first but allowed Alois to hold him into his chest. "Because Ciel, I'm so incredibly sorry about hurting you and almost doing things to you. I know what I did was horrid and I'm so sorry. Please Ciel, forgive me and let me protect you" Alois apologized sincerely, breaking into tears himself. The two boys stayed in each others arms for a long time until Ciel broke the silence. "Ok Alois, I can forgive you" he said softly earning a bone crushing hug from the older boy.
When Sebastian and Claude came home a few hours later, they were surprised to see the precious picture they did. Alois and Ciel were cuddled close together under a blanket. The screams of people dying were coming from the tv and the two were surprisingly half asleep. The couple picked up there corresponding children and held there sleeping forms. "Well it seems the two made up" Claude stated and smiled softly at Sebastian. "Thank god" Sebastian agreed. They kissed then parted. Sebastian carried his young charge to bed, kissing his good night. Ciel smiled happily to himself, happy that he knew he made his father proud.
