Ciel decided that he deserved a nice hot shower after everything.  He went to the tub turning on the water and slowly filling the room with steam.  Knowing Alois wouldn't mind he began his shower. Over the sound of the shower and his quiet humming Ciel didn't notice the window opening across from the shower. He did notice the shadow through the curtain. His heart beat rapidly as adrenalin started to flow. Looking around the shower he grabbed the first thing he thought could be used as a weapon,  the shampoo. The shadow grabbed the curtain just as there was a knock on the door.
"Ciel I brought you clothes to change into. Is it ok for me to come in and put them on the counter?" Ciel had never been so happy to hear Alois talk. The shadow disappeared as Alois walked in. Ciel turned off the water grabbing a towel to cover himself and shakily leaving the shower.  Alois looked at him with concern.
"He...... he was here....  h-he came through the window." Even though he tried his hardest Ciel's voice was shaky. Alois immediately hugged him and calmed him. Why would he come here?  What was he hmmph to do? Was all Ciel could think as he stared out the window.
