Side Story: A Day Off (memories)
Sebastian's POV
Today was an important day, I woke up my lord earlier than usual this day because today was an important day. He groaned and scoffed for being woken up as always, but I told him what day today was and his attitude quickly changed. I dressed him to the most suitable attire for the occasion, because today was a rather important day.
My master decided to get some work done before our guests arrived. I was in the kitchen preparing my master's breakfast, I also gave the servants a task for them to finish.
"But Sebastian today is....." Finny argued.
"I'm aware of what day it is please don't mind it do your tasks before the guests arrive," I stated.
I turned around and placed my master's breakfast on the cart taking it up to his office.
"Today's an important day for Mr. Sebastian isn't it?" Mey-rin asked.
"Yes, it's an important day for him." Bard whispered.
I knocked on the door. "Master, it's me may I come in?" I asked.
"Come in Sebastian," Master called.
I opened the door, bringing inside the cart that carried my master's breakfast I laid the plate in front of him.
"For breakfast today we have a cornbread pudding with maple sauce and a scoop of vanilla cream," I announced.
Master grabbed the knife and fork and took a bite of his breakfast.
"Hmm, it's fine..." He muttered.
I bowed. "I'm glad it's to your liking, sir."
Master placed his cutlery down onto the table causing me to become confused. 'Was something wrong with the meal?'
He turned his head to look at me. "Sebastian you are dismissed for now....after all it is a special day today isn't it?"
I smiled. "Yes sir it is indeed a special day,"
Master smirked. "Then make the most of it this is the only time I'll allow you a day off."
"It is greatly appreciated, master."
Master waved his hand. "Now go, I will entertain our guest while you get everything settled."
"Yes, sir."
I quickly left my masters study to the hallway In the west wing. I stopped in front of that bedroom, my hands started shaking, my head started hurting and my heart started pounding wildly. I grabbed the doorknob and opened the door.
A sweet, soft voice graced my ears.
"Se Se....are you okay?"
My eyes widened, I shook my head and gave her a reassuring smile. "Catherine...yes, I'm fine are you feeling better?"
She nodded, her ears perking up and waving around her tail, she wrapped her arms around my own arm. "I'm alright, I'm sorry I worried you."
She purred causing me to sigh in relief. "You scared me when finny tackled you." I confessed.
"But I'm fine now Se Se...." She argued.
"Yes I'm aware that you're fine now, but I feel like you shouldn't have gotten out of bed so quickly maybe you should rest today." I suggested.
She gasped and frowned. "NO!! I want to spend the day with you, I can rest when we come back.....please." She tried to convince.
She looked at me and her eyes were begging me to not make her go back to bed, I sighed in defeat. "Fine, let's go it's not often that I have a day off to spend with you."
Catherine smiled, she leaned in and kissed my lips. I wrapped my arms around her waist pulling her close to me.
She pulled away she cupped my face smiled. "Let's go I want to enjoy the day with you."
A shiver went up to my spine, I smirked. "Of course I have so much planned for us today."
She grabbed my hand and intertwined her fingers with mine as I led her out if the room.
'Her hand feels warm.....I somehow feel strange.'
She happily dragged me across the hallway into the master's study, she went inside the room.
"Catherine the master's busy you shouldn't___"
Catherine cut me off. "Ciel, look, look!! I get to steal Se Se for today." She proudly announced.
Master looked at her and chuckled. "Good for you Catherine, make sure to take care of him while you're out."
Catherine nodded. "Uh huh Catherine will take good care of Se Se." She subconsciously wrapped her arms around mine in a possessive manner.
"Well then, off you go now Catherine, I have some work I have to finish before my guest arrive."
Catherine hummed in agreement and turned around grabbing my hand trying to drag me out of the room.
"Sebastian..." Master glared.
"Yes, master?"
"No funny business of any kind today." He claimed glaring at me he meant not to touch Catherine in a lustful or desirable manner.
I smiled falsely. "Of course not master, as you wish." 'That brat.'
Catherine successfully dragged me out of the room and outside the manor where a carriage was waiting for us. I helped Catherine into the carriage first, then I followed after.
"Where are we going Se Se?" She asked.
"It's a surprise Catherine, but I'm sure you'll enjoy it very much." I stated.
Catherine giggled and nuzzled her head on my neck slightly purring.
My heart started pounding heavily at her actions, I felt my blood rush to my face heating my cheek. 'Was I blushing?! No only humans can feel embarrassment!'
"Now now Catherine, look at the window there's a small field with sheep." I distracted.
Her eyes shined. "Wow there's so small and fluffy Se Se!!"
I smiled and ruffled her hair. "Yes, they are very innocent creatures like you Catherine."
She turned her head towards me and smiled. "I'm so happy Se Se."
I felt my heart shift suddenly, I was overcome by a feeling of happiness....it felt strange but it was bearable.
"Se Se when we get to London can we visit undertaker?" She asked.
My eyebrow twitched. "Now why would you want to go visit him Catherine?"
"Because undertaker took care of Catherine, when Catherine had no home." She explained.
I sighed in defeat, I was irritated at the thought of Catherine being all over undertaker but I couldn't deny her, she was so innocent.
"Alright Catherine when we get to London we'll visit undertaker again." I said.
She purred and rubbed her head underneath my chin like a cat would. 'Well she is a cat.'
We arrived at London it was very busy like always I made sure to have Catherine hide her ears and tail. (Note: Catherine was still very young when this memory took place.)
"Se Se there's so many people around!!" She pointed out.
"Catherine don't be so loud it's impolite for a lady to raise her voice." I argued.
"Yes Se Se, why don't we go see undertaker right now?" She asked.
"We can go see him after we pass through downtown alright." I convinced.
I grabbed Catherine's hand and led her around the stores.
"Se Se look it's so cute!!"
Catherine was pointing at one of funtom's newest products the latest version of bitter rabbit.
"Catherine are you sure you want that? I mean aren't you a bit too...."
*Whimper*
I looked at Catherine's face she had the biggest pout on her lips and teary eyes her whimpers were small but loud.
"Se Se....I want it.." She whimpered.
I felt a tug on my chest, that face made me feel so guilty. I place my hand on her face and softly shushed her.
"Catherine look I'll buy you the bitter rabbit so...don't get upset." I begged her. 'I hated that face, filled with sadness and emptiness.'
Her eyes lit up in happiness. "Really Se Se?"
I nodded. "Yes Catherine, I'll get you the bitter rabbit."
She started purring in happiness as I took her inside the store and bought her the rabbit she hugged it tightly and giggled softly, she smiled gracefully at me. "Thank you Se Se."
I smiled. "You're welcome Catherine, all I want is for you to be happy."
We were walking down the streets when Catherine suddenly stopped.
"What's wrong Catherine?" I asked worryingly.
She looked at me with a blank stare. "I'm hungry Se Se." She stated.
I covered my mouth with my hand trying to hold in a laugh. "Pfftt."
"Se Se???"
I shook my head. "Alright Catherine I guess it's time for lunch anyways."
I grabbed her hand and led her towards a nearby park. "What are we doing here Se Se?"
I smiled at her. "We are going to have a picnic here."
I soon laid the blanket and the food on the ground.
Catherine's eyes shone brightly. "Wow everything looks so yummy let's eat."
I handed Catherine a plate of food, and she started eating. She always looked so adorable when she ate.
"Se Se? Why are you not eating?" She asked innocently.
"I'm just not very hungry right now Catherine."
'ACTUALLY.....I'M STARVING BUT NOT FOR HUMAN FOOD.'
I watched Catherine eat and I admired her beauty and innocence, she blushed as she caught me staring at her. "Se Se I'm honestly not that pretty for you to stare at me like that."
I shook my head. "No Catherine, you're the most beautiful creature I've ever seen."
"Oh Se Se you're so sweet." She crawled over to my side and nuzzled my face and purred.
I felt my face getting warm again. "Now now Catherine, doing such a thing in public it's not lady like." I whispered.
She removed herself from me. "But I'm not a lady, I'm a Cheshire Cat." She whispered.
"Well yes I know that, but still you have to act like a lady so no one can suspect you being different." I explained.
"I'm full now Se Se, can we go visit undertaker now?" She asked.
Her eyes were serious she was not gonna take no for an answer. I sighed in defeat. "Yes Catherine we're going to visit undertaker now."
She smiled happily. "Hooray let's go Se Se."
"Yes Catherine, just let me clean up the picnic." I argued.
'What kind of butler would I be if I left a picnic mess laying there? Certainly not a phantomhive butler.'
After cleaning up, Catherine almost broke my arm trying to drag me to undertaker's place.
We knocked on the door and it slowly opened. Catherine's face was a curious one.
"He he he he, my my it seems the kitten has come back to visit?"
In a blink of an eye Catherine had thrown herself at him hugging and purring loudly while nuzzling him.
*PURRRRR PURRRR*
My eyebrow twitched. "Catherine come now that's enough."
Undertaker laughed. "Catherine that tickles when you do that."
She removed herself from him, he patted her head.
"Well Catherine, it's been a long time, but you're still the same kitten as before. Has she been behaving good for the earl butler?" He asked me
"She's quite affectionate but besides her lack of ethics she's quite alright."
"I missed you undertaker!" Catherine exclaimed.
Undertaker nodded. "I've missed you too Catherine, but I'll make sure to visit you very soon. I have to speak with the Earl this week."
"Take this with you Catherine it will come in hand if you feel depraved." Undertaker offered. He gave Catherine a few treats wrapped in red paper.
"Thank you." She smiled gently. She purred softly while she held the gift in her hand.
I felt a burning sensation inside me I grabbed Catherine's shoulders. "Well then Catherine we should get going now the sun is going down."
"Eh?! But we just got here Se Se?" She complained.
"Hehehehehe....The butler is partially correct he shouldn't be gone from his master's side too long, I'll visit you again soon my dear I promise you that."
Catherine pouted and nodded. "Okay."
I wrapped my hand around Catherine's. "Let's go now, sorry to interrupt your work undertaker."
"It's quite alright Catherine is always welcomed here and so is the little Earl." He chuckled.
"Bye bye undertaker." Catherine called.
"Bye bye my sweet Catherine take care of yourself during the full moon tonight." Undertaker shouted.
'The full moon what is he taking about and why does Catherine have to take care of herself.' I thought.
I led Catherine back to the carriage as it took us back home as the sun was setting and the moon soon started to rise. I looked at her sitting across from me.
"Catherine I have a question for you, can you answer it?"
She looked at me puzzled. "Well I guess that depends on what your question is?"
"What happens to Cheshire cats during a full moon?" I asked her.
She laid back on the seat and thought hard for a while. Then she answered.
"I can't remember, I'm sorry why do want to know?" She inquired embarrassingly.
"No particular reason." I answered.
"Okay."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Catherine's POV
I wonder why Se Se would ask that question? But I really don't know the answer....I can't remember anything from my pasts lives...nor do I know anything of my own kin.
My ears flatten in disappointment, I looked at the moon and I started feeling weird....like vibrations starting on the my lower half climbing up the way up to my stomach, I felt dizzy and warm.
"Are you alright Catherine?" Se Se asked.
"I'm alright, just want to go home after all that excitement..."
"I see we are almost home so be patient a little while longer..." He reassured.
I stayed quiet I pressed my legs together an awkward heat feeling between them.
Se Se looked at me concerned but he made no attempt to press me for information since he already asked.
The carriage drove over a bump on the road making both of us jump.
"Hnnn ahhhh~~~~" I whimpered.
"Catherine what's wrong?" Se Se asked worriedly.
"I'm fine Se Se I promise don't worry about me." I mumbled.
Soon the carriage arrived at the manor, Se Se opened the carriage door for me and I quickly grabbed undertakers gift as well as my gift from Se Se.
I dashed through the entryway causing a scene for the servants.
"Catherine you're back did you have fun with Mr Sebastian?" Mey rin asked.
"YesIhadfuntodayIcan'ttalkrightnowI'mverysleepypleasedonotbothermefortheremainderoftheevening." I cut off.
I dashed through the hallways and avoided ciel, I finally made it to my room and closed the door. I laid my hands on the vanity and panted.
"My body is on fire...(pant)...I'm so warm...(pant)."
I placed my gifts on the vanity and sat on the chair. My body was trembling and shaking.
I heard the door open, I felt a familiar presence but I knew who it was already...
"Catherine what's going on? I heard from the young master that you were acting strange." He demanded to know.
"Se Se please...leave me alone for now..." I begged.
He grabbed my arm and pulled me away from the vanity causing my body to collide with his.
"NO STAY AWAY FROM ME!" I screamed.
*SCRATCH!!!*
Pushing him away, I accidentally scratched his face blood dripping onto the floor. His eyes flared pink signaling that he was upset.
"Sebastian please let me go, I can't control myself..." I begged him.
"Catherine tell me what's wrong I can help you..." He offered. He reached out to me causing me to shift away from him.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Third person's POV
Silence filled the room, Sebastian closed his eyes and pondered 'how could he help his beloved kitten if she wouldn't tell him?' The wounds on his face having healed dramatically, he approached Catherine despite her warnings. Sebastian grabbed her gloved hand and kissed it softly he gazed at her as he prepared to speak once more.
"My beautiful kitten, my sweet Catherine, please tell me what causes you pain, if you're scared that I'll be injured do ease your worry.....for you I'll take any kind of pain so please indulge me in your sorrows. I'll do my best to aid you."
Catherine's body trembled softly, her lips trying to form the words as her face heated up in a faded blush. "I can't breath....I want...I want..."
Sebastian pulled her against him by her hand holding her with no struggle.
His Fuchsia eyes gazed down onto her golden eyes. "You want what?"
"I want...I want...I want you to kiss me."
His eyes widened he felt dizzy and lightheaded...how could a demon feel like this? He felt as if he was put in a trance, under a spell, Catherine's words fell heavily on his mind.
Instantly his lips were on hers, kissing her just like she had begged him. However Catherine was the one in control her hands and fingers now on head tugging at his hair. His hands involuntarily gripped the back of her legs lifting her up in a way that she wrapped her legs around his waist. His hands holding her backside to keep her in place.
He was being submissive at the mercy of his beloved, she was dominating him in every way possible. Soon she broke the kiss her eyes that were once golden were now ruby red, her gave still with a heated blush over it.
She removed her hands from his hair and went down to his neck and chest area.
"I need more...more...take this off.." She whined.
She started untying his tie and once she got that off she ripped his white dress shirt, the buttons falling and scattering onto the ground in pieces.
"Catherine..." He groaned.
Soon her lips were on his again in a fiery passionate dance, that made Sebastian's knees almost give out....she was intense, passionate, and lustful.
Her humming sound of satisfaction were like a siren's song to his ears.
He wanted to touch her so very badly, his hands started roaming up her waist...however...
*GROWL*
Catherine had growled at him showing her displeasure. She broke the kiss and started kissing his neck.
Sebastian started feeling out of breath, his mind was hazy and foggy a demon couldn't possibly feel like this something was wrong if this kept up Catherine could....
"Catherine stop...that's enough." He warned her.
Catherine growled her nails digging into his back keeping him in place as she bit his neck over and over again.
Sebastian's skin could almost break and tear if she were to try and rip after she bit him again and again.
"Catherine enough!" He shouted.
That's when he remembered a very important part of Catherine's body one body part that could save him before she could....
His hand went up swiftly as he grabbed the nape of her neck and gripped it tightly. Suddenly Catherine was paralyzed her nails retracting from his back and legs limping barely touching the floor her mouth no longer had his neck hostage and she looked dazed at him. He's finally done it, carefully he walked over to the far end of the room with her and laid her on the floor determined to make his escape and lock the door.
*HISS!!!!* *YOWLING*
She growled at him once he laid her on the floor, then astonishingly....
"Sebastian what's the bloody hell is going on here?!!!"
It was his master's voice, he quickly turned to warn his master. "Master go away from this room Catherine is acting strange!!"
*WHIMPER WHIMPER*
"CIEL CIEL SE SE HURT ME~~"
Sebastian looked at her Catherine had suddenly turned back to normal however she had tears in her eyes.
He looked back at his master who glared at him.
"Sebastian I gave you one order and that was no funny business with Catherine and you couldn't control yourself!!"
"But master I didn't...."
"Enough Sebastian this is an order from this day forward you are not to touch Catherine you are not to be near her and you are not to even look at her once, you are to leave her alone from now on understood?!!"
Sebastian's fuchsia eyes shone brightly. "Yes my lord."
Ciel walked over to Catherine and patted her head. "You poor thing Sebastian won't be bothering you anymore starting today, you were quite rough with him trying to protect yourself...are you alright?"
Catherine nodded. Sebastian couldn't believe it she was a beast just a moment ago and now she was as gentle and innocent as a kitten.
"Let's go Sebastian and change your clothes you deserve what Catherine has done to you." Ciel glared.
Sebastian didn't know what to feel whether anger or shame or both. His master left the room Sebastian following behind, he gave one glance at Catherine her eyes had switch back to the ruby red, he looked away rapidly and locked the door. He didn't want to fall for spell again.
As Sebastian went back to his quarters and changed his tattered clothes he saw the marks the Catherine left on his body. The claw imprints on his back, his swollen lips, her bite marks turning black and blue on his neck, and his messy hair.
He never knew Catherine was capable of this, he should've listened to her warning. The butler swiftly changed his clothes how beer he felt quickly as if Catherine had drained some part of his life essence. Now he was worried, Catherine was so powerful and he never noticed that she was still just a kitten he couldn't imagine how much power she could have as an adult.
Meanwhile with Catherine~~~~~
"More I need more~~~"
Sebastian locked the door and she couldn't get out.
She desperately searched around the room trying to find an exit. Catherine stopped when she spotted the treats wrapped in red paper she wondered would those treats help her?
She grabbed one basically a small biscuit, shrugging her shoulders she placed it on her mouth and ate it.
Quickly she felt a small bit of relief from the curse that was plaguing her. The treats were helping her, she ate more and more until they were all gone and she hummed in happiness as she felt no more symptoms. She was tired, the treats made her sleepy and so she laid on her bed and fell into a deep sleep.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The next morning
Catherine's POV
I woke up feeling refreshed and giddy. I scanned the room to see the red paper and the treats were gone. Soon I had remembered what happened last night with Se Se and ciel. I blushed.
"Oh god did I really hurt him like that?" I whispered.
I hurt my Se Se, I didn't know what had gone through me when I attacked him.
A knock on my door was heard. I swiftly opened it. "Se Se I'm sorry I hurt you I didn't mean to!" I bowed.
"Huh miss Catherine it's me mey rin, the master wants to see you."
"Oh okay" I pouted.
"Umm miss Catherine did something happen between you and mr Sebastian last night?" She asked.
"Huh?! Nothing, nothing! Please don't mind me.."
"Alright then..."
Mey rin took me where the master was in the drawing area.
"Hehehehehehe my dear Catherine are you feeling alright?"
"Undertaker??!!" I cried out.
"Catherine, undertaker here has come to visit you." Ciel explained.
I went over and hugged him and purred happily.
"My my the treats I gave you worked perfectly you're doing just fine." He hummed.
"Treats?" Ciel questioned.
"Ahh yes Earl I haven't quite told you my business in coming here, you see Catherine is going through a phase in which her body requires more energy than normal...in her world she would be able to gain this easily by interacting with other Cheshire cats but because she's in our world more drastic measures are taken, I had feared she could've attacked someone in order to gain energy through touch I made those treats specially so that it would satisfy her need without needing to resort to such things." He explained.
"Ciel I'm sorry I attacked se se last night it was my fault I hurt him." I confessed.
"So Sebastian didn't force himself on you, you attacked him instead?" Ciel assumed.
I blushed. "Yes I'm sorry I did that."
Ciel sighed. "Well that explains a lot it was strange to see Sebastian breaking an order."
At that moment se se had walked in he kept his gaze away from me and he was a few feet away from the perimeter I was in.
"Master it's time for tea." He announced.
He gave tea to ciel and was hesitant to give tea to undertaker I stepped away from him allowing se se to give tea to undertaker.
"Sebastian since Catherine and undertaker have cleared to me some of the circumstances from last night I take away my orders from last night however one order stays the same no funny business with Catherine.
"Certainly master." Sebastian bowed.
"Catherine go with Sebastian you also have duties in this household." Ciel ordered.
"Yes master!"
I walked over to se se and left the room and followed se se around.
"Catherine are you back to normal?" He asked as we walked down the hallway.
I nodded. "It was just a phase, I'm sorry I hurt you."
He stopped in the hallway we were a few feet away from the servants quarters.
He grabbed my hand and led me down to his quarters. He closed the door and soon I found myself against the door with his body against mine. His figure towering above mine.
"You have no idea what you put me through last night...." He glared.
He untied his tie and dress shirt and reveled his chest the black and blue bite marks scattered across his neck and collar. I blushed.
"You took a lot of energy from me so they haven't healed properly and they probably won't heal anytime soon." He explained.
He cupped my chin and forced me to look at him. "You arouse me so much....I can't resist you for much longer."
He kissed my neck, his hands on my waist trailing lower on my body.
"Since you've marked me yours isn't it safe to say I should mark you as well?" His voice lusted.
His hands grabbed my legs and wrapped them around his waist. After they were secured his hands teared the from of my dress exposing my neck and shoulders to him. He kissed them his hot lips lingering on each kiss.
"I'm not breaking my orders to my master because this isn't funny business, this is your punishment, I'll mark you mine and you'll accept it wholeheartedly~~"
My voice trembled. "Yes I will~"
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Memory over present time Sebastian's POV
I remembered that day like it was yesterday however those days were now gone and today was an important day.
Today was the day when I was going to bury my beloved Catherine, I looked at the black and white picture on my bedside table. I felt empty I had no more tears to shed knowing fully I was to blame for your departure and the pain of losing you would never leave me. Today was an important day because it marked the day I lost you forever, the only thing that mattered in my devilish long life. The only thing I cherished and lived if only I had brought myself to say it to you. I'll love you for eternity my dear Catherine.
I heard a knock on my doorknob the room. It opened to reveal the servants.
"Are you ready to go Sebastian?"
I sighed. "Yes I am lets go."
I placed the picture in the table again and sat up from the bed.
I was lying, I am not ready to say goodbye.
