I could feel the hot tears trail down my face. Why does Alois even care about me if I'm so useless? "Ciel," I whimpered into my knees.

SLAM

The door opened and hit the wall and left a crack in the beige wall.

"Arielle!!" Ciel's voice called my name, hit I lay just where I was with my head in my knees. "Arielle?" His footsteps became louder and then they stopped. "Ari? What happened?" He placed his hand on me and shook me. "Ari?"

"I-I'm right here.." I lifted my head. My face was wet and stained with tears. It was red and blotchy.

"Oh, Arielle." he held me close and whispered in my ear, "I love you, Arielle."

Ciel broke the hug and lifted me up. "Ari, come back to my room and tell me what happened. I'll tell you what happened with me too."

I wiped my tears and nodded. and we headed across the hall into his room.
