A Strange Love Story Chapter 7- CielxAlois

    I'm slightly confused. Alois has been avoiding me all day. We were actually getting along too....which is surprising. Last night we were talking about some things we had in common and there were a lot actually. But this morning he didn't talk to me at all and after he got dressed he ran off to the kitchen.

    I looked for him all day but I didn't see him. So right now I'm laying on the couch drinking tea. Suddenly I heard a crashing sound and Alois' "Oops...." I immediately rushed into the hall and spotted him by the closet. "What are you doing?" I asked. 

    He glanced up and gasped. Then, he slammed the closet door shut and leaned against it. "Oh hello Ciel~ heh..." "Uh...what were you just doing?" "Um...nothing! Cleaning! Yeah..cleaning." I could tell he was lying.

    "But our btlers clean for us..." "Well...I decided to give poor Claude a break so he can spend time with Sebastian." "Then why is he making lunch?" I asked. "He...us...insisted on at least doing that...heh." I was getting more suspicious by the second. "Alois..tell me...why are you avoiding me?" I asked.

    "A-Avoiding? Me??!! No! I wouldn't avoid you Ciel you're my friend." "Who says?" I guess I shouldn't have said that because immediately his eyes went wide and he looked heartbroken. "I just thought....I mean...we were getting along so well I...we..." "Well friends don't avoid other friends..." I tried my best not to yell at him. "I know...I'm so sorry Ciel....it's just that I'm planning something special for you and I didn't want you to find out."

    I was shocked. "Something special?" I asked. "Yeah, I've never had a real friend and you just seemed lonely as well...I wanted to make you smile Ciel." "Smile?!" "I know it may sound creepy...but I love your smile Ciel...and I...I love you.." I couldn't believe what he had said. I blushed.

    "You...love me?!" I gasped. Was it suddenly hot in here? His shoulders slumped and he immediately started to cry. "Y-You don't love me back do you?!" I gasped and grabbed his arm before he turned to leave. He started to struggle and without thinking I kissed him. He blushed and kissed back. When we pulled away for air he stared at me wide eyed.

    "S-So...does that mean.." "Yes Alois I love you too." He smiled and hugged me. "Oh Ciel!!!" "Ack! Don't squish me!" He giggled and let go. "Sorry." "It's alright." I smiled.

    Claude's voice could be heard throughout the manor. "Maser! Lunch is ready!" I grabbed Alois' hand and we ran off to the dining room. But somewhere out the window someone was watching us...and that someone was angry and jealous.
