Sebaciel‘s Childhood SweetheartAU 4: The Present

Sebaciel‘s childhood sweetheartAU 4: The present

*English is not my first language

*It is just a concept story under Modern AU, where both Sebaciel living as normal human, met each other in their childhood. In this setting, they both have a normal family, and living in a normal life.

*[Ciel] do exist in this setting, so Bocchan will be called as he\ little one in this fiction. It’s annoying not to know his real name, but I do not want to make it up :

Part 1:

Sebastian doesn't seem to be all right these days. The little Phantomhive have some concern .

It does not mean he is in sick.No cough, fever, or runny nose, he is as healthy as always.

Then he did not do well on the test? However little once just heard from his parents that Sebastian got a perfect score on his school exams...

Or because Sebastian missed the cartoons he wanted to see yesterday...

[Ah, if it was me, I would be very sad, but not reasonable for Sebastian.]

Obviously, the possible reason in his mind not powerful enough to make Sebastian such an unhappy child these days. So what is it?

“What shall I do... Sebastian always cares for me so much! Now it’s my turn to care for him this time!”

How about a gift? So in a flash, the little one start his brainstorming:

【1, Make a surprise! Once,I had being in a bad mood because of the fight with my brother.Sebastian brought me a box, I opened, and a hand-made frog jumped out of it, and I was frightened in a moment since it was so out of sudden! At the same time. I laughed out loud because of the shock. Yeah, just scare away the bad stuff! Sebastian is a genius. I'm just a little surprised he likes pranks, but I don’t hate that, after all he hasn’t tried to scare me even once. Maybe he has noticed me having some bad days. He's always been very careful with me... Can I do it? Making something scary to make Sebastian happy again? That sounds strange, but I wonder if I could see a new expression of him?

2,How about a cake? Sebastian always brings us really good cakes.Mom always said sweet things make you feel good. I can make him a cake in return! But, Can I even able to make it? If I can't make it as good as Sebastian makes it, I'll buy it myself. I don't know if there's enough money in the Piggy Bank... No! it will be pointless if it didn't do it myself!

3 Let’s take a trip somewhere！That time Sebastian took me climbing a tree, I could see the place so far, far away. I heard that a traveling can change the mood, so if I took him to that“Far away place”could work? But I don’t know where it was, and how to get there, can I go there by bus, train or plane? Do I have enough pocket money to buy a ticket? Can I

come back that day? Sebastian's mom and dad will be worried if they come home too late... What if he gets scolded when he gets home? I don’t want that happen to him.

4 A picture book! I have a collection of picture books, every time I will take out at a lonely moment and I can have a nice dream, it is a magic book! Oh, and Sebastian read it to me last week when he sleepover at our house, we were lying in bed together, and I leaned against him, and he read it to me. Sebastian has a beautiful voice, and if he sings me a lullaby, I'll fall asleep right away, and he smells good, not like mom, but reassuring, and just as I'm about to fall asleep, he patted my head. . 】

“No, no, no. I have to think about what to give to Sebastian. I can't think about anything else!” To clear his mind, he shaked his head again and again.

But they are actually about Sebastian. He do not know when it began, the figure of that older boy have been in his mind and brain for a long time.

“Why am I always thinking about Sebastian?”

Even he have brother already, and Sebastian could be count as his brother too, Why are they mean so different to him?

And when every time he think of Sebastian,his face would be turning hot, and his heart started beating faster as if it is about to explode.

Is it because he think too much? The little one thought.

Come to think of it, Sebastian did a lot of things for him, made him a lot of delicious desserts, took him out to experience all kinds of things, told him a lot of interesting story and knowledge. Sebastian always understood him and stayed with him when he needed. However,he had never given something proper in return to Sebastian. At the same time , he knew nothing about Sebastian.

Well, He did know Sebastian likes cats better than dogs.( it is the only topic they have a conflict about) He doesn't seem to be interested in girls, but he is good at anything, he never mentioned other things he likes …

Oh, and the last time Sebastian's mother visited, she did mentioned. “He used to be like a little adult at home, but he's suddenly become a little more lively out of blue these days after the party, it’s like he have been a different person!”

[Isn’t Sebastian always lively? Why does his mother say that? There is a different Sebastian whoI don't Know in another place?]

Rachel just chuckled softly.

[I really don't know Sebastian, how could I possibly give him a gift to make him happy again?]

Part 2:

“**， do you have any dreams for when you grow up?”

“HMM?” The Little Phantomhive who sitting beside Sebastian while making something,he looked up and met this inquiry in a sudden.

Yesterday Lizz showed him how to make a wreath, and today he wanted to make one for Sebastian.

“Well...” something is on his mind, he feel a kind of stiff when he is trying to say something.“Yes... but it's nothing special... You might think it's childish.”

“I would never call you childish, and of course, I won't allow others to say it.”

Maybe it's because the wishes of a child are equally childish, but even so, Sebastian's words were sweet.

Sebastian always knows what to do to make him feeling eased.

“Okay …so I said... I want to open a toy store.”

“ A Toy Store?”

“Well, because I was… weak when I was still little, and I was always being alone in my room, it wasn't so lonely to have toys around. With these toys, I can build a world of my own, and I think that's Amazing!”

“Well, it's cool to build your own world!”

“Yes! Ah... You don’t think I'm naive, do you?”

“No, I think it's very you. I like it.”

... Even an ordinary word from him is with the power to move the heart. Is Sebastian a magician?

“So... is there anything Sebastian would like to do in the future?”

Sebastian paused, looked up at the contrail sewed into the sky, and said:

“I. . . never have a specific goals like you do,but I'd like to try to see the world.”

“The world...”

“Yeah, something like go to China once and see if the Great Wall is really that long, or if there are actually mummified zombies exist in the pyramids...”

“Mummies! That's Cool!”

When looking the sparkle in this little one’s eyes, Sebastian smiled and continued:

“Then I will learn about the culture, learn all kinds of things, and become a better adult.”

He stretched out his hand firmly to the sky, and a goal was set in his mind.

Sebastian is so great! He will travels all over the earths and going to explore his potential . He has already been very capable enough to do anything, he is still looking for more chance to get progress. As if he is Sebastian, any dream cannot be a hardship.

But then...

“Are you... going to leave me?”

Regret raised just as the words slipped out of his mouth, he quickly covered by his hands, but it was too late.

{ what am I talking about! ? Why would I say it out ！？} He really want to punch myself who just said it out...

The two were silent for a while, and the elder one’s replied.

"Yes”

The sound of the wind blew away,the whisper of birds faded,the rustle of leaves stopped, only leaving their echo in the hole of his heart.

I wish this sentence was just a joke, but you won't lie to me, is it?

It was his dream, like he keep supporting me, and I should also support him like he did, but, why I am so hate him to leave me here alone... I should ask him not go, then, Sebastian may promise not to leave...

No, I had no right to stop him from having a his dream, but now I just eagerly want him to give it up for me? I'm such a -- I'm such a selfish, horrible friend! Bad friend! Bad!Bad!

The wild sky above him overwhelming him. Like it will crash him any moment.The vastness of the sky is the stage for Sebastian's future, and about him, he is just an audience who can do nothing about the actor on the stage. He felt he is drowning into the sea of the people, he never have breathed so loud after stay with Sebastian. He felt closed to his edge of asthma going to relapase.

Just when he thought he was drowning into it, the Actor make another sound to drag him back to the earth:

“But I will come back to be with you.”

The drowner stop breathing harshly and look at the actor.

“Oh! I mean…. If I haven't found my dream by then, Can I come to help your toy store Dream”

the actor seems a little panic in a sudden and he shyly scratched his face with his finger. Like the words he just said are not from the script, but from his own heart.

But that is not important, because these words are just for that little audience. These words swept away the sadness, but keep the tear of joy on his face.

“Will... will you be with me then, as always, forever?” He urgently grabbed Sebastian's arm and let the tears fall, afraid he will be disappear at any moment.

“Yes, we'll never be apart after then”Sebastian took out a handkerchief and wiped one tear and another from little one’s cheek.

{I'm so happy that Sebastian said she wants to be with me forever

Even if he went to a far away place, after that he would choose to return to my side, not his parents, or others, just my side.

The Birthday Chocolate Cake, the Christmas present, but this is even better.

Sebastian won't lie. He always keeps his word, so I'll believe him!

One day, he will back on his own, and I also want to be stronger at them” so that I can be strong enough to stand with him one day, I also want to grow up to a better adult!}

So he wiped his tear on him own, and made the decision.

The Breeze brushed the dew off the buds, bloomed.

“We had a deal! I will also try my best to grow up bigger and better, and make our all dreams come true!”

Tears have fallen with the wind, leaving the most brilliant smile.

It shone on Sebastian's eyes like a grain of sunlight cross through a leaf onto the grass, small,but enough to turn into a star among those leaves.

For the first time, Sebastian felt he all he wanted is nothing more than what was right in front of him.

So the knight touched his Little Lord.

And got the gift he has longing for….
