Ciel was your younger brother, even if it was only by one year. You two had went through practically hell together, about almost three years ago.

A day he hated for three years now, as it was his exact 10th birthday it all had happened and your lives had drastically changed in a matter of hours. You knew how much the thought of it made him struggle, as it had been like that the past two years as well, even if he tried not to show it. Ciel had been different ever since that accident, more cold, adult like.
