“I suppose this means you’ll be ending my life now, doesn’t it?”“That was the deal.”Ciel took a deep breath and looked Sebastian in the eyes. “Get on with it, then.”Sebastian smiled at the boy, most likely grinning at his familiar impatience. “Actually, my lord, I’d think it best if we changed the conditions of the contract.”“I- What?” What in the world is he going on about? The suspense was killing Ciel; if Sebastian was going to kill him, the least he could do was get it done quickly. “What on Earth are you talking about?”“Well, my lord, as much as I hate to admit it, I’ve grown quite fond of this life with you. I’d like to enjoy it while I can, you see? If it’s all the same to you, I’d like to extend the end of our contract to your natural date of death.”Ciel was speechless. Sebastian wants to stay with me? Until I die? That is insane. He is a demon from hell, yet he’s chosen to stay by a human boy’s side simply because he’s taken a liking to this life?None of it make any sense- then again, Ciel rarely understood anything Sebastian did. However, he’d grown fond of the demon himself, and to be honest, living with him wouldn’t be that bad. Besides, he still had Elizabeth to take care of, possibly a family with Cym ahead of him. He had a life- one that he could finally live in peace, now that he’d gotten his revenge. He’d pay Sebastian back when the time came, but for now, he was going to do what his parents would want him to. He was going to live.“Well, if you’re sure about this, then you’re not going to get an argument from me.”“I’m positive, my lord.”The boy and his butler shared a little smile- a genuine moment of happiness. Hopefully, that was something that wouldn’t be so rare anymore.“Well, now that that’s settled, I’d like some tea - and maybe some cake, while you’re at it.”“I’m sorry, sir, but you’ll spoil your lunch if you eat cake now.”“Sebastian, I said I’d like some cake.”“I’m sorry, my lord.”Ugh, maybe Ciel should rethink his decision.
