Chapter Six

The following days went by painfully slow. In the end, Sebastian hadn't been able to leave just yet. While Claude was sick in his bed, Sebastian had to do all the chores in the house. Frankly, he didn't care. Cleaning was actually a very welcomed job for it helped him to escape from his thoughts. He cleaned everything he could, every doorknob, every frame, every corner as efficiently as he could. And when he was done, he started all over again. By the fourth day, there wasn't a single particle of dust lingering in the air and still he kept cleaning.

Every time he got to Claude's door, he quickened his steps and went past it as fast as he could, not wanting to think about anything. It was hell, knowing that Claude was so close, and still he couldn't meet him. Hannah had come to him many times and told that Claude wanted to see him but Sebastian declined every time, telling he had too much work to do. He wasn't practically lying but with his demonic powers, he should have been able to clean the house within seconds, and Hannah knew that too.

Then, there were the nightmares. They had gotten so much worse, every time Sebastian woke up, he was covered in new wounds and once even with a broken bone. Luckily, the wounds were in such a place it was easy to hide them with clothes. He knew the nightmares were too severe already and it would be impossible to stop them if he didn't get help soon but he just didn't care anymore. The only things he had been living for had been taken away from him. It just wasn't worth it.

"Sebastian! Come here at once!" Alois yelled from the dining room and Sebastian sighted, hurrying to his current master.

"You called", he bowed his head as soon as he saw the blond hair. He could tell by the voice that Alois was very pissed about something.

"How much longer does it take?" he snapped and Sebastian frowned.

"Does what take?"

"Don't play smart with me! I gave you an order days ago and you haven't still fulfilled it? How long will it take? And where is Claude?!"

Sebastian was clearly dumbfounded. Order? Could he be talking about the ring? But… Claude had it. It should have been given to his master already. Unless…

"I will look for him right away", Sebastian bowed and rushed out of the room before Alois could say another word. He didn't quite understand what was happening and he had to see Claude. Right now.

When he got to the door, he stilled. There was so much he wanted to ask, so many things he wanted to end, and he didn't know how to face the demon. What if he was still angry with him? What if he were to throw him out? It would kill him.

Before Sebastian could collect his thoughts, the door opened and he saw Hannah carrying a tray with her. She stilled for a moment before giving Sebastian a reassuring smile and walking away. Now that the door was open, Sebastian had no reason to back away, so he entered the room. He could still smell blood in the air and walked to the bed where Claude slept, covered in white blankets. The demon was pale, sweaty and clearly in pain. Maybe the motor saw had done more damage than he had thought.

Sebastian sat beside Claude and listened his heavy breathing. He wanted so much to touch the demon, make sure he was there but he couldn't move. He could feel the tears burning in his eyes when he thought that this was all his fault. If he hadn't let Grell kill Ciel, if he hadn't lost his memory and ran to Claude, if he just had realized to stay away, this would have never happened.

The pain in his heart started to be too large and he stood up. He couldn't do this after all. For his surprise, when he went to the door and tried to open it, he noticed it was locked. And not by a regular lock, but with a demonic seal.

"Hannah?" Sebastian asked and pushed the door harder. "Let me out."

"No", the woman said from the outside and Sebastian could hear her voice being a bit raspy. Was the woman crying? Why?

"Seriously, let me out, now!" Sebastian banged at the door but it didn't help. He couldn't get out of the room unless Hannah accepted it. Still, he had to try. "I'll make you cookies if you let me out!"

What the heck was that? Cookies? For a demon? He was seriously desperate.

"I won't let you out until you sort your things with him", Hannah said and pressed her head against the door, tears continuously dropping from her eyes.

"I don't want to do that", Sebastian said and Hannah saw red. That fucking bastard just didn't get it, did he.

"You sort your things out right now or I go and tell Alois what happened", Hannah said and for her pleasant surprise, Sebastian didn't say a word back. He probably didn't understand why no one had told anything to Alois and she was glad at that. For once, there was something this overly perfect demon didn't know. "And… So for you know… he's all yours."

She could hear Sebastian gasp and walked away from the door. This was the end of her unrequited love. She knew that even if the two demons were miles apart, they would still be thinking at each other. Someone were just meant to be, and this wasn't Hanna's chance. This was the true end.

Sebastian listened as the steps went further away and sighted. Somehow he had been expecting something like this but still he hadn't prepared himself for it.

"Nnh… Seb….an", the raven demon heard Claude whimpering in his bed and stilled. Had he woken him up?

"Seb…stian… S-stop", Claude was shivering slightly and tugged his hands under the blanket and all over to his abdomen. "S-Sebastian."

The said demon could feel his cheek burning and he swallowed. Was Claude… having a dream? About him!

"N-no, don't", Claude whimpered, a small tear appearing to his eye. Sebastian swallowed. He had never seen the other demon in such state. "Sebastian!"

The demon tossed around in his bed, trying to grab something but unable to catch it. He screamed Sebastian's name, like he was loosing something very important to him

"C-claude?", Sebastian whispered and suddenly the spider demon opened his eyes. Sebastian stilled. Moments passed in silence until Claude sat up, his eyes a bit groggy and his hair a big mess. It seemed to take forever before he noticed Sebastian standing on the door.

"S-sebastian?" he asked quietly and landed his legs to the floor. Sebastian had to fight keeping his focus on Claude's face when the cover fell off from the bandaged abdomen. "Is that really you?"

Sebastian nodded and Claude started to walk towards him slowly, it seemed like the air was made out of glue and the time between them seemed to still. Sebastian could feel his heart beating loudly in his chest and felt light headed. When Claude was finally close enough for him to smell his body odor clearly, he stopped.

"Why didn't you come for me sooner?"

Sebastian could see the misery in the older demon's eyes and swallowed. The tears threatened to start leaking again and he had to blink rapidly to keep them away. When Sebastian said nothing, Claude came even closer and rested his head on the other demon's shoulder.

"I missed you so much."

That did it. The tears started to drop from the red eyes and he held his breath, afraid to make out any sound. He felt so weak, so miserable. All the pain and agony came crushing down all at once and it was almost too much. Sebastian leaned his head to the door and sniffed a bit.

"I thought you had left", Claude said and looked at the tear stained face, feeling a strong stab in his own heart.

"I-I didn't", Sebastian said quietly and averted his eyes. He still couldn't bear to look at the demon in the eye.

"Why are you crying?" Claude asked and brushed a tear away from Sebastian's cheek. Sebastian held his breath and wondered if he should tell him the truth. After all there was nothing he had to lose.

"Because you hate me", he said quietly, knowing how pathetic he must have sounded but decided to ignore it. Claude stilled for a second before a gentle smile appeared to his face, his yellow eyes glowing faintly.

"I don't hate you", he said and Sebastian snorted.

"You don't have to lie to me. I heard it all", Sebastian said and tried to brush the other demon away but he wouldn't budge. Instead, he wrapped his long arms around Sebastian's body and pulled him in closer, burying his nose to the crook of his neck.

"I'm not lying. I truly…. don't hate you", Claude said quietly but Sebastian still didn't believe him.

"What about the part where you said you are better without me?" Sebastian said coldly and felt Claude stiffen before he relaxed again.

"That wasn't about you", he said and pondered his next words. "It was about the master."

Sebastian fell silent. Master? Was he meaning about Alois? Why would he hate his own master?

"He's the cause of all of this", Claude said and Sebastian could hear hint of anger in his voice. "If he hadn't made that order, none of this would have happened."

"It was his fault you got hurt", Claude said and rose his head so that he could look deeply into Sebastian's eyes. "It would have killed me if you were hurt even worse."

Suddenly Sebastian understood everything. Why Claude hadn't told Alois anything, why the demon was having dreams about him, why he was looking so desperate, thinking that Sebastian had left. How come he had been so stupid! The hints were everywhere, he just hadn't bothered to look for them.

"You fell for me", Sebastian whispered, a faint blush appearing to his face.

"I have fallen for you a long time ago", Claude confessed and took Sebastian's hands to his own. "I tried to avoid the feelings, even playing with Hannah, but it wasn't enough. Nothing can compare to you."

Sebastian felt his heart starting to beat faster. Could this really be happening? Was his feelings finally being answered to?

"Sebastian Michaelis", Claude whispered and took Sebastian's head between his hands, looking deeply in the red eyes. "I love you."

Claude pressed his soft lips over Sebastian's, the younger demon not fully understanding what was happening. Claude had finally made the first move, giving Sebastian something he had waited for years. Was this truly happening? This better not be a dream or else…

He wrapped his hands around Claude's neck and pulled the other demon closer, pressing their bodies together and deepening the kiss. Sebastian moaned when Claude's tongue hit his own and started to move in patterns, the hands on his cheeks moving to his neck and tilting his head to the side.

Sebastian gasped when he felt one hand on his lower regions and pushed against it. He could feel Claude smirk against his lips before he pulled away, looking at Sebastian with lust filled eyes.

"You are erect", he stated and Sebastian blushed deep red. Claude smirked and brought Sebastian's hand to his own member. "I am too."

Sebastian couldn't keep away the smile that rose to his face. He grabbed Claude's hand and guided the older demon to the bed, pushing him down and straddling his hips, pressing his lips tightly against his. Claude stared to run his hands across Sebastian's back and to his bottom, giving it a slight squeeze and earning a soft moan from Sebastian's lips. He flipped Sebastian underneath him, pressing his hard crotch against Sebastian's and kissing him deeper than before.

The sensation was almost too much for Sebastian and he had to break free, out of breath and flushed, feeling his body being overly sensitive. He looked at Claude and then turned his gaze to the bondages that were starting to undo.

"Claude", he whispered, afraid of breaking the moment they were having. Claude looked at him, waiting him to continue. "Are you sure this is okay?"

"What do you mean?" Claude asked and started to nip his way down Sebastian's neck, giving the other demon hard time on finding his words.

"W-wounds", he was able to say and Claude smirked, pressing his crotch against Sebastian in slow motion.

"Do I look like this isn't okay?" he sniggered and nibbled Sebastian's ear before licking it slowly. "Besides, we have the all night."

The words made butterflies appear to Sebastian's stomach and he hissed, feeling all the inhibitions ooze away. It was only him and Claude.

Sebastian started to move his hands across Claude's stomach and back when suddenly the older demon grabbed his hands and pressed them above his head. He gave Sebastian a meaning look, telling him to keep them in place. Sebastian did as he was told, feeling a bit nervous at his exposed state. Claude started to undo his buttons, taking the vest away from him and then moving to the next clothing until Sebastian's bare abdomen was clearly visible.

Claude swallowed before lowering himself to Sebastian's chest, giving soft kisses across his chest and collarbone. Sebastian moaned to the touch and arched his body, urging Claude to proceed further. The other how ever didn't feel like rushing. He licked some trails around Sebastian's body and blew air to them, making the younger demon gasp in surprise.

"You like that?" he asked though he got his answer from the demon's expression. Sebastian looked at Claude with wanton eyes, trying to tell him to touch the most sensitive parts but Claude ignored him, running his hands everywhere but where the demon wanted them to be.

"C-claude", Sebastian moaned and the older demon sniggered.

"No need to rush, my love", Claude said and licked Sebastian just above his hard nipple.

When Claude finally took the nub to his mouth, Sebastian felt like he could explode. All his senses sharpened and he pressed his body closer to Claude, moaning every time that wet tongue flipped over the nub. Claude smiled and moved his other hand to twist the other hard nipple, making Sebastian moan louder.

"C-claude – Ah! P-please", Sebastian pleaded, making his still clothed hips against Claude's, trying to get the friction he so desperately needed. He felt like he was about to explode. The pressure in his stomach almost hurting, the tight pants keeping his member at bay and pressing it a bit too hard.

The older demon once again ignored the pleas and moved to the other nipple, sucking and biting it gently, making Sebastian's body even more sensitive. Sebastian arched his body and panted loudly. He had never felt this way before. And he had still his pants on.

When Claude brushed his crotch against Sebastian, the same time when he bit the perked nub, Sebastian let out a loud cry and came, his whole body shivering from the after effect of the orgasm. He breathed heavily, feeling relaxed and all spent, enjoying the feeling of Claude's warm hands running gently across his body.

"Did it feel good?" Claude asked but Sebastian wasn't able to answer. Claude smiled and pressed a gentle kiss to his lips, pouring all his feelings to the single action. "We're not done yet."

Claude moved his hands to Sebastian's pants and tugged them down in one strong movement. He was just about to take his own pants off too when Sebastian stopped his hand. He looked deeply to the other demon's eyes and started to unbuckle the belt. He felt his heartbeat increasing when he saw Claude's hard member standing proudly in front of his face. He swallowed and looked at Claude before pressing his lips against the tip. Claude took a short breath but didn't move away, giving Sebastian more confidence. He had never done this before, never even thought about it, but he wanted it so bad.

Moving to a bit more comfortable position, he started to slide his lips along side the hard member, nipping it lightly and earning soft moans from the man above. He moved his hand and grabbed the hard member, stroking it slightly and making Claude's his buck slightly. Sebastian smiled and moved it a bit faster, leaning in closer to suck the tip.

He felt the warm hands on his locks, just gently lying over his head and rubbing his scalp in slow motions. Sebastian took the hint and took the member deeper to his mouth. The taste of Claude seemed to increase the further he went and he started to pop his head up and down, trying to lick the underside gently at the same time. He knew he was being sloppy but couldn't help feeling a bit proud every time Claude bucked his hips.

"S-sebastian", the older demon breathed his name, his eyes closed in pure bliss when Sebastian took in as much as he could, feeling the member hit the back of his throat and held back the gag reflex. "E-enough."

Sebastian released Claude with a frown. Hadn't it felt good? Had he done something wrong?

"Don't look so troubled. It was perfect", Claude said and gently kissed Sebastian's forehead. "But now it's my turn."

He lied Sebastian back to the mattress, spreading his legs as far as they could go, revealing the half erect member along with his most intimate parts. Sebastian gasped and covered his face, feeling too embarrassed to face the man.

"This will feel a bit uncomfortable at first, try to bear it, okay?" Claude said and Sebastian nodded. He couldn't help thinking the time he had tried it himself, the burning feeling it had given, and shut his eyes tightly, preparing for the unavoidable pain.

When he felt something cold and slick against his rear, he stilled, holding his breath and shaking slightly.

"Relax", Claude said and gave soft kisses along Sebastian's chest, doing his best to make the other demon relax. Claude knew it was Sebastian's first time. He knew the other demon was scared of the pain, though he didn't want to admit it. It made Claude a bit happy that Sebastian was willing to let him do it even if he knew how much it could hurt.

Claude waited until Sebastian relaxed and nodded before he gently pushed the finger in. Sebastian let out a sharp gasp and grabbed the sheets, turning his head away. It wasn't as hurtful as he had thought but felt unpleasant. How could anyone feel pleasure from this?

"Breathe", Claude said and moved the finger slightly, feeling the muscled contrasting around his digit, trying to absorb the new feeling. Sebastian took a deep breath and tried to relax as much as he could. He felt the finger moving inside him, feeling better every second. The uncomfortable feeling still stayed, but it was starting to feel better, something he could easily take.

"You're beautiful", Claude said and leaned in to kiss Sebastian deeply. The younger demon wrapped his hands around Claude's shoulders, taking as much of that comforting body as he could. He answered to the kiss, moaning slightly when the tongue hit his own. He was so distracted he didn't even notice Claude inserting another finger.

Claude started to kiss Sebastian's neck, whispering assuring words to him as he moved his fingers, trying to find the place that would make the other demon see stars. He knew he had found it when Sebastian let out a surprised yelp, his body arching and his eyes rolling.

"W-what?"

"Prostate, my dear", Claude said and pressed the spot again, making Sebastian wrap his hands around Claude tighter. Sebastian could only moan, feeling a jolt of electricity every time the spot was hit. It was… beyond his words. He could only moan and feel, surrender himself to Claude's touch. He let out a protesting whimper when the fingers were removed and looked at Claude who smiled gently at him.

"Ready?"

Sebastian felt something much larger than two fingers in his rear but couldn't care less. He wanted Claude, right now.

Claude leaned in, pushing his member slowly inside the other demon, watching as his face twisted in pain. This was definitely something bigger. When Claude was in all the way to the hilt, he stopped, breathing hard, and looking deeply in Sebastian's eyes.

"I have waited this for so long", he breathed and leaned to kiss the raven demon. Sebastian couldn't help feeling emotional. He was finally together with the person he head wanted for ages. It hurt, it felt good, he was embarrassed, loved, everything he had ever wanted. And he didn't want this moment ever to slip away.

Claude started to move slowly, earning quiet protests form the other demon but kept moving, trying to find that place of pleasure again. When he found it, he made sure to hit it with every slow, sensual thrust.

"C-claude!" Sebastian moaned and grabbed the sheets, feeling the pleasure filling his whole body again. "F-faster!"

Claude smirked and did as he was told, knowing he couldn't hold himself any longer either. He started to make stronger thrusts, every one hitting the prostate dead on, making Sebastian moan in pleasure every time.

"AH! C-Clau- Ahhhh! Com- com-", Sebastian screamed loudly when Claude hit his prostate the last time, filling him with his hot seed, making him release his own too. The older demon collapsed over him, breathing heavily and shivering slightly from the power of the orgasm. Sebastian was breathing heavily too, fighting to keep his eyes open.

"You can sleep if you want to", Claude whispered and kissed the demon slightly. Sebastian shook his head, not wanting to fall asleep but not able to fight the darkness anymore. Finally, he was where he was meant to be.

That night the nightmares returned, worse than ever.

"Sebby-chan!" Grell yelled and ran to the raven haired boy who sat on the ground, holding his fresh lover in his lap. Blood was bubbling from the wound on Claude's back, the bandages soaked through. "How dare you Sebas-chan! After all I did to you, you gave your virginity to him?"

Sebastian couldn't react to Grell's words, only looking at the body on his lap. This was definitely Claude. But how? What had happened to him?

When he sensed Grell walking closer to him, he felt the sudden urge to protect his lover's limp body. He was just barely breathing, not being able to protect himself so Sebastian had to do everything he could to save the love of his life. He pulled the body closer to his, hiding the spider demon's head to his chest, glaring at Grell and readying himself to fight.

"I will give you to no-one", Grell said and was about to pull Sebastian away when small hand tugged his shoulder.

"He's mine", Ciel's cold voice said and Grell smirked, revealing all his teeth.

"Wanna bet?"

"We don't have to, he belongs to me", Ciel smiled and ran his hand across Sebastian's jawline. Usually the demon didn't feel threatened from his previous master but now something in those blue, empty eyes put him on guard. He shifted his body so that the boy wasn't able to touch his lover.

"You moron!" A new voice came and Sebastian was thrown away from Claude, hitting the nearest tree so hard it cracked to pieces. "Sebastian belongs to me!"

Sebastian didn't understand what was happening. More persons started to appear, all of the demanding that Sebastian belonged to him. When they didn't seem to get in any conclusions, they started to fight each other. Sebastian looked at the fighting loft before he found Claude, lying limply against the tree opposite to him. He felt a sting in his heart, looking at Claude's oddly twisted body. He saw that more blood was coming out of the wound. He had to get to him. Quickly!

Sebastian tried to stand up, only to notice that both of his legs were broken, pointing to the opposite directions. He let out a loud cry, holding his legs as the pain started to sink in. He wanted to get to Claude, no matter what, and started to drag himself across the lawn, ignoring the stabbing pain and focusing on his goal. When he finally got to Claude, he noticed the other demon was still breathing and let out a relieved sight. He pulled the demon to his lap, hugging him tightly and kissed him.

"He's mine!" Sebastian heard Grell yell before the motor was sank to the wood, just barely missing Sebastian's head. He quickly hid Claude's head to his chest, covering him from the wood chips that flew to every direction. Some of them sank to his body but he ignored them, only focusing on that his lover was safe.

"Mine!" Another artifact was thrown at him and it hit his arm, making a big wound appear. This kept going on, all kinds of devices thrown at him, and he took every punch, doing all he could to protect the cooling body. He knew that if Claude was hit, he couldn't make it.

"You're mine!" Grell whispered and pulled the motor saw out, swinging it across Sebastian's body, breaking his arm and cutting it to half. Blood started to flush out, Sebastian's vision quickly blurring from the pain and loss of blood. Still he didn't take his eyes off of his lover's pale face.

Sebastian ran his fingers along Claude's cheek and lips, knowing his own life was going to end. He took his time, exploring every corner of his lover's face while the objects continued to hit him. It felt like they were somewhere far away, he could barely feel his body anymore. It was only him and Claude. He leaned in to kiss the demon when his yellow eyes suddenly opened. Sebastian smiled happily, looking gently at him, feeling happy that he was able to save the most important person of his life.

"Mine", Claude growled, the smile immediately disappearing from Sebastian's face, the dagger sinking in his heart. He looked his lover in disbelief, to the dagger, and back to his lover, the darkness consuming him, the last thing he ever saw being his lover's eyes, filled with hatred and disgust.

The end.

Okay, it ended like this it seems. For some reason I felt like writing a dark ending to this story, don't know why. I have never liked these open endings, I have only once written one myself (beside this) but it felt right for this story.

I feel good completing this story, now I can start writing my next one, god these ideas just keep bopping to my head, not wanting to leave me alone! Frankly, I love them : )

So, see you next time, and thank you for reading. I hope it was worth the time!
