My first black butler story, hope it's good :) Oh and I'll probably be switching writing styles sometime through this story because the start is kind a like a prologue so I wrote it differently to how I usually would.

Oh and one more thing, ok a couple more things, ok like a billion more things. No, Ciel is not a girl, no Sebastian will not be a pedo...no wait he will...but he won't be a major pedo! And this is an AU two-shot. Why? Because shut up. Also if the characters are kinda OCC it's because 1. This is AU and 2. I haven't watched Black Butler in a while. Ta-ta for now.


Disclaimer: *infinite sigh* I don't own black butler and do not gain any profit from this.

A handsome demon was casually sitting upon his throne in a room, all alone, apart from a meek servant who was only there to keep pouring his obviously poisoned wine. The other demons would have to do better than some weak poison that couldn't kill a rat if they wanted to get rid of him.

The demon was bored. Nothing interested him in his dark palace. So he pondered what to do and ended up coming to a frightfully interesting idea.

He would get a bride. Out of all the humans on earth at least one of them would spark his interest then he would take her home and make her his bride. It looked like something that would relieve his boredom...for some time.

However when he got sick of her he would simply have to get rid of her. Perhaps look for another bride?

"Servant!" he called.

"Y-yes master," the weak demon who could barely hold a human form stuttered.

"I am going out. If anyone comes around tell them I have gone traveling and do not wish to be disturbed," the demon ordered.

"Of-of course master," the servant replied.

Then he was gone in a puff of black smoke leaving only a few stray black feathers behind.


The demon traveled around the world, looking for a bride.

The women of Austria did not seem to hold any intrigue. The women of France were too bitchy for him though he had to admire their cunning nature. The women of Egypt were uninteresting, all the same to him. Japanese women were too formal, same with the Korean and Chinese.

The demon searched and searched till he was at the end of his rope and extremely frustrated. The demon at that time made a pit stop in Britain. He had no intention of picking a bride there; he just wanted to relax with some tea and calm his growing nerves. What if he didn't ever find a bride?

As the demon flew overhead, heading toward London, he stopped for a moment to look upon a family scene. There was a father sitting on a white chair next to a matching table which had little sandwiches and tea placed upon it, reading the paper. Then there was a mother smiling brightly at her pouting daughter.

The daughter had grey hair and bright blue eyes. Her hair was up in two piggy tails which were held in place by two blue bows that matched her eyes. She was wearing a purple and white frilly dress and was complaining loudly about how inconvenient the clothes she was wearing were as her mother giggled.

Her mother then shushed her before giving her daughter a big hug, yelling about how cute her daughter was. Her father shook his head as he glanced over the paper and the whole family sat on the grass near a large house which was very expensive and elegant.

The young girl wiggled out of her mother's grasp before running away yelling something like "I'm going to go play over there!"

The demon followed the girl as she ran off. He wouldn't admit it but she interested him...but only a little bit.

The girl ran around for a bit, bursting with energy before she spotted a dragonfly and went chasing after it. The demon followed the girls progress before he came to a landing a few steps away from where the girl was playing.

"Come here little dragon fly," she cooed.

The dragonfly darted to the right and whizzed past the demon's ear before coming to rest on the tree behind him. The girl followed the dragonfly and came face to face with the demon.

"Hello little one, what might your name be?" the demon asked, running his fingers through his thick black hair.

"Ciel...Ciel Phantomhive," 'she' replied hesitantly. "What's yours?" she asked.

"I don't have one," the demon informed the girl.

"Everyone has a name," she stated.
"Well I do not," the demon said.

"Then I'll give you a name," Ciel said with a smile.

"That will not be necessary," the demon replied.

"Of course it's necessary Sebastian."

"Sebastian?"

"That's your new name!" the girl yelled excitedly.

"I really don't need you to-"

"So Sebastian, why are you here?" she asked.

"No reason," he replied, giving up on trying to convince the interesting girl that Sebastian was not his name nor would it ever be. Wait 'interesting girl'...looks like the demon had finally found a keeper.

"You have to have a reason otherwise you wouldn't have come here," the girl said, a quizzical look upon her face.

The demon could practically see the cogs turning in the little ones brain. It was intriguing for someone so young to have such a calculating mind, a calculating mind that that could be shaped and eventually become of great interest to the demon. She was going to be a great bride.

"If I said I could give you all you ever wanted, would you come away with me?" Sebastian asked.

"What do you mean?"

"If you come with me I could give you anything you want toys, money, clothes, shoes, anything," Sebastian said.

"I can already get whatever I want" Ciel said, crossing her arms over 'her' chest.

"You can't have everything, there must be something you want," Sebastian argued.

Ciel thought for a while before slowly saying, "...There might be something."

"Yes?"

Ciel took a deep breath as all the joy left her face. "I don't ever, ever want to be alone," Ciel said seriously.

"That can be arranged," Sebastian the demon said pleasantly, crouching down on the healthy, green grass.

Sebastian then took the little 'ladies' gloved hand and encompassed it with his own. "You'll never be alone if you stay with me."

"Can you stay with mama and papa?" Ciel asked.

"...I don't think so," Sebastian replied.

"But I want to stay with mama and papa!" Ciel exclaimed.

"Hush now," Sebastian cooed, trying to not bring attention to their meeting under the big oak tree. "Your mother and father will eventually leave you. But I won't ever leave you. If you cry I'll wipe away your tears, if you're hurt I'll heal your wounds, if you're sad I will do all in my power to make you happy. I'll be the one to stay with you forever."

Ciel wanted to believe Sebastian, he was a cool, nice man who offered him everything however he could shake the gut feeling that something was wrong with Sebastian. He tried to blow it off as suspicion but something just wasn't right here.

"Hey Sebastian you never said why you were here," Ciel said.

"I'm here to get you to come with me," Sebastian replied. This child was kind of challenging. He was right, this was interesting.

"That's not a reason," Ciel stated.

"It is. Now Ciel, come with me and we can be together forever," Sebastian said, rising up from the ground and offering his hand to Ciel.

"But...I love mama and papa and they'll be sad if I leave," Ciel replied.

"They'll be fine after a little while. Come on Ciel, hold my hand," Sebastian said sweetly.

In the distance the sound of a frantic dog barking could be heard which was what alerted Ciel's parents that something was wrong. The barking then came closer and closer along with the 'thud' 'thud' of two anxious parent's feet.

"Quickly Ciel, take my hand!" Sebastian urged.

As a dog accompanied by two parents appeared in the clearing the scene of a little boy dressed as a girl disappearing into blackness was all that could be seen. And as Ciel's parents wept for their lost son and his mother screamed at the heavens to save her baby from whatever dark force had taken him. A dragonfly flew away from the scene, ignorant of its part in the kidnapping of an important little boy.


Ciel awoke to the sound of running water and groggily sat up, realizing that he was not in his home but instead in a dark room and was covered by a silky, black blanket. "Sebastian?" he called nervously.

"I'm here," Sebastian reassured the toddler, appearing from behind a doorway on the other side of the room from where Ciel had been sleeping. "I'm just running a bath for you, inter-dimensional travel isn't the most pleasant experience and I figured you'd want to have a wash."

"...inner-dimensional what?" Ciel questioned.

"It's something you don't need to worry about," Sebastian said, disappearing for a moment to turn off the bath.

"The bath is ready now," Sebastian reported as Ciel slid off the giant king size bed and approached the bathroom hesitantly.

"I won't bite you know," Sebastian said.

"I-I'm not scared," Ciel replied, eliciting a chuckle from the demon.

"Of course you aren't. Now, are you ready to bathe?"

"I'm still wearing my clothes silly," Ciel replied.

"Well then take them off."

"But I never put on or take off my clothes...can you help me get them off?" Ciel asked shyly.

"I didn't expect this to be happening for at least another ten years," chuckled to himself.

"Huh?"

"Never mind, come here," Sebastian said, getting down on his knees so he was at Ciel's level.

Sebastian undid the bows in Ciel's hair and let Ciel's grey locks slip through his fingers. Ciel's hair wasn't very long and made her look quite boyish but Sebastian found it kind of cute. He then took off Ciel's socks before ordering Ciel to lift her arms so he could take her dress off.

Sebastian then took Ciel's purple dress off and left her in only her underpants. The demon looked upon Ciel's small frame and was slightly phased about how much she looked like a feminine boy now. Although she did still have a very girly face that seemed almost impossibly cute for a boy, Ciel had to be a girl.

"Sebastian, I'm cold, hurry up," Ciel whined.

"Yes my lady," Sebastian replied mockingly, hooking his fingers on the edge of Ciel's underpants.

Sebastian then pulled the last of Ciel's clothes off and received a major shock to which he thought he would never recover from. "Hahaha...humans, only humans would do something like this," Sebastian mumbled, obviously shocked by his discovery. Ciel was a boy. A cute and exceedingly feminie boy but a boy none the less. Sebastian was enraged.

A mere human tricking him? It was not allowed. It infuriated him to no end.

Ciel stepped out of his underpants, not seeing the dark look gracing Sebastian's face, and hopped into the bath. Ciel thought contently about how warm and nice the bath was as Sebastian raged.

"Why did you tell me you were a boy?" Sebastian asked in a low and dangerous voice.

"It was embarrassing enough in those clothes without anyone knowing I was a boy. I could bear the thought of anyone besides you knowing I had to wear those embarrassing garments," Ciel replied, unaware of Sebastian fury because of how relaxed he was.

Sebastian would have been angrier but hearing 'anyone besides you' seemed to calm him rather than further increase his irritation. Sebastian sighed and tried to dispel the last of his anger. It would get him nowhere and he didn't want to scare the boy by blowing up at him now.

"So Sebastian...will you help me wash myself?" Ciel asked awkwardly.

"Let me guess you never had to do that either?"

"Yeah," Ciel replied sheepishly.


-~~The Next day~~-

Sebastian waltzed into the room he had given Ciel. The room was overall very dark and most of it was covered in purples, blacks and reds apart from the bathroom which was almost all white. But it was one of Sebastian's finest rooms, nothing but the best for Sebastian's soon-to-be fiancé.

Sebastian was in a much better mood today. After Sebastian had mulled it over last night he thought, what's it matter if my bride is going to be a boy? Much stranger things have happened in the demon world before and homosexuality was next to normal here anyway. It's just that Sebastian had never pictured himself as a homosexual though he tried not to dwell on it. In any case Ciel was as cute as a girl.

"Time to wake up," Sebastian ordered, wrenching open the black curtain that fought back the demon world's dim sunlight. The demon world did have sun...it just wasn't as bright and you could look at it and not fry your eyeballs out of their sockets. But there had been cases where demons had to regrow their eyes after spending months staring at the sun. Still not a good idea to stare at it for too long...or get involved with anyone stupid enough to stare at the sun for months on end.

"I don't want to get up," Ciel moaned.

"Today is the day of our engagement you should be jumping out of bed full of vigour," Sebastian said, tying the curtains to the sides of the huge window with a gold sash. (A/N Look I got no idea what the hell those rope thingy's with the tasselly bits on the ends that you use to tie curtains are called. Anyone know?)

"Engagement?" Ciel questioned.

"Yes Ciel engagement."

"Isn't an engagement where two people get married?" Ciel asked.

"Close, it's kind of like the lead up to marriage," Sebastian answered.

"But I can't marry you; I'm supposed to marry Lizzy!" Ciel exclaimed.

"Who's Lizzy?" Sebastian hissed. Sebastian had staked his claim, Ciel was his now, and no floozy was going to take him away. It didn't matter that Sebastian wasn't going to marry Ciel till later in life when Ciel was older and could understand how special it was. Or the fact that he had only just met him. Ciel was always undeniably his.

"I...I'm supposed to marry her when I'm older," Ciel answered cautiously.

"Not anymore," Sebastian informed Ciel briskly.

Ciel merely sat there and pondered. Was it strange to be marrying a man? And so soon after meeting him? Ciel hoped not. He had never heard a law saying a man and another man couldn't marry but somehow the thought of marrying Sebastian made him feel weird. And he had seen plenty of arranged marriages and sometimes the bride and groom were meeting for the first time unlike him and Sebastian who had met and were going to get to know each other more and more.

But what about Lizzy? He liked Lizzy and Lizzy like him...he hoped she wouldn't be sad about the fact that they weren't going to get married anymore.

"Come now Ciel, I've prepared proper clothes for you to wear today and I don't want my efforts on getting something your size to be wasted," Sebastian said.

Ciel crawled out of bed and stood expectantly in front of Sebastian.

"What?"

"Aren't you going to help me out of my night gown?" Ciel asked innocently.

"Bloody hell," Sebastian cursed, unbuttoning the white night gown that rest upon Ciel's slim body.

"Thank you," Ciel said with a bright smile.

He should smile more often, Sebastian thought absentmindedly. "There," Sebastian said, "now put on your clothes...never mind I'll do it."

"Someday I'm going to teach you how to put on your own clothes," Sebastian added. Sebastian had to admit he didn't mind coddling the boy like this but somehow he didn't like it...probably because it made him feel like he was Ciel's butler or something and demons severed no man they only sought about manipulating them to take their souls.

"Mmhn," Ciel replied.

Sebastian then carefully dressed Ciel and when he was done he stepped back to admire him. Ciel was dressed in a deep blue coat which finished at the start of his legs, under which he wore a white shirt. There was a ribbon around his neck that light blue and tied perfectly. On the bottom Ciel wore shorts the same colour as his coat and even lower he wore socks with blue ribbons at the top that went past his knees and stopped about mid-thigh. For shoes Ciel wore some a simple light brown pair so as to not take away from the outfit.

Sebastian thought he did a rather good job of making the boy look absolutely adorable. He even gave the outfit a 'blue' theme to match Ciel's sparkling eyes.

"Let us go now," Sebastian said.

"Ok but where are we going?" Ciel replied.

"It's simple were just fortifying our engagement elsewhere," Sebastian answered.

"Alright...what does fortifying mean?" Ciel asked.

"It's kind of like strengthening our engagement. Making it more real than it already is," Sebastian said.

Ciel gave a nod and the two head off towards the room Sebastian had prepared earlier for the ceremony of engagement. The ceremony of engagement was the demons way of bonding themselves to their loved one or 'marriage partner'. It wasn't performed very often between demons due to the fact it was instilled until the death of one of the contractors and demons lived for a long time and were easily bored when all was the same. Including their marriage partner.


"Ciel, do not be alarmed by this room. It may look strange but it is perfectly normal," Sebastian said, stopping in front of a dark door with a gold handle.

"Ok," Ciel confirmed, taking a deep breath.

Sebastian then opened the door and ushered Ciel into the room, closing the door behind him. The room was very dark and Ciel couldn't see at all. The room smelt a little of something like herbs or spices and a bit like fire and wax.

Soon Ciel's eyes adjusted to the stifling blackness and just as Ciel's eyes had adjusted Sebastian simultaneously lit the candles that had been strewn across the room. That was what Ciel had smelt...Ciel then took a moment to survey the room. It was still dark even with the lit candles and there didn't appear to be any window in the room. The candles came in all different heights and flames but they were all the same size and stayed in little groups around a pentagram in the middle of the room.

"What-What is that? Is it blood?" Ciel asked, staring wide-eyed at the pentagram.

"No need to worry I only used my blood to make the pentagram," Sebastian replied.

Ciel stared up at Sebastian, "take off your shirt," he ordered.

"I beg your pardon..."

"Take off your shirt," Ciel repeated.

"Alright," Sebastian conceded, taking off his white button-up shirt.

Ciel inspected Sebastian's body. No signs of any cuts, fresh or old. Sebastian's skin was flawless and his stomach had not an ounce of fat on it.

"Now the pants," Ciel said.

"I've got no idea what you're doing here but fine I'll take off my pants," Sebastian replied. Popping the top button on his black, ripped jeans and pulling them off. "Happy?" he asked.

Ciel pretended not to hear and continued to carefully examine Sebastian's legs. They were as floor less as his top half. "Turn," Ciel ordered.

"Yes my little lord," Sebastian mocked.

Ciel found that Sebastian's back was rather broad and realized Sebastian was kind of...tall and it perplexed him. Why wasn't Ciel so big? However Ciel pushed thoughts like that aside for later. Right now he needed to find the wound.

After careful scrutinizing Sebastian's bottom half he found nothing amiss and went to look at his back where he found a relatively small scar that was stretched over Sebastian's back and hip. It looked to be very old and deep. Definitely not new like the wound Ciel was looking for.

"Hey Sebastian...where did you get that scar?" Ciel questioned, lightly tracing the white jagged scar with his finger.

"That? Let's just say a fight with an archangel will not end well if you are not properly prepared," Sebastian replied.

"Huh?"

"You'll understand everything better when you older," Sebastian said, turning to face Ciel. "Can I put my clothes back on now?" Sebastian asked.

Ciel blushed a little before he gave a short sharp nod and turned the other way. "Why did you make me undress in the first place?" Sebastian added.

"I...well, I was trying to find where you got hurt because there was blood everywhere and you said it was yours..." Ciel said, trailing off towards the end.

Sebastian laughed lightly, as if he understood something Ciel didn't. "There won't be a wound and loosing that much blood will barely even affect me."

"Now, I do believe at the moment we have more pressing matters to attend to," Sebastian said, bringing Ciel's attention back to the pentagram in the middle of the room. "Step right up," Sebastian said with a smile, gesturing for Ciel to step inside the red pentagram.

Ciel hesitantly stepped inside the pentagram and waited for something horrible to happen...nothing did and when nothing happen Ciel took a few more steps, still nothing. Soon Ciel reached the centre of the pentagram where Sebastian was already standing.

"Time to begin," Sebastian said.

"On this day, I Sebastian will take Ciel Phantomhive as my bride and form a marital contract with him. Neither Ciel nor I will engage in elicit relations with another demon, human or other when we are in this contract and if we do a punishment shall be thought up by the betrayed. If either of us wishes to exit the contract it cannot happen until Ciel's sixteenth birthday. When Ciel's sixteenth birthday occurs we shall be wed and the contract shall be fulfilled. As the demon of this household I declare this," Sebastian said in the ancient tongue of his demon ancestors.

Ciel flinched and started backing away as the circle began to glow before Sebastian grabbed his arm. "It's okay Ciel, do not be afraid it will all be over soon, now, repeat after me 'I Ciel Phantomhive.'"

"I Ciel Phantomhive."

"'Agree to these conditions.'"

"Ag-Agree to these conditions."

"'I give my blood as proof.'"

"I-I give my blood as proof..."

"Then all you have to do is give yourself a little cut with this knife and the deed is almost done," Sebastian said, holding out a knife to Ciel.

"I don't think my mama and papa got engaged like this," Ciel said, taking the knives handle before slicing a little cut on his middle finger, holding back the 'ouch!' that was dying to get out.

"Now let the blood drip down on to the pentagram," Sebastian said.

Ciel flicked his now dripping finger, making the blood flick onto the circle.

"The bride has agreed. Now the contract must be sealed."

Sebastian leaned down so he was gazing into Ciel's eyes before he moved forward slowly towards him as Ciel shut his eyes and waited for what he thought was going to be a kiss on the lips. His mama and papa always did it and they had told him it was something you do with someone special and Sebastian was special.

But before Sebastian touched Ciel lips to his own he redirected them, lightly placing his soft lips to Ciel's closed eyelid. Ciel eye then ached before it became gut wrenchingly painful and Ciel, having only a small body which had trouble bearing pain, fainted.

The next time Ciel awoke and looked in the mirror it was as if a different person was staring back at him. A different person with one blue eye and another purple with a pentagram in it, a pentagram almost identical to the one Ciel had seen on the ground, in that room, where he had gotten engaged to a demon.


Cutting it off there people :)

I hope you enjoyed it (and come back for the second chapter which shall be the last chapter and shall have all the lemon in it.)
