Love Me Forever - Sebastian Michaelis Romance
01
It was a warm winters evening, snow was falling as much to my displeasure. I fucking hated the snow. It angered me so much, no matter what happened I was always freezing to death regardless of what clothing I wore. Gloves, fuzzy socks, jumpers, jeans, vans. You name it.I always go so cold. Only when it was in the dead of summer I'd actually feel warm. Anyway. As I stood in the snow staring up at the full moon I started to wonder about recent events. I had recently finished College, low grades of course. My parents were never pleased of me. They were always so unhappy because I never followed the rules in modern twenty first century girl word and became a parent in my late teens, marry and be the perfect housewife running around with six children in my care. My dad often referred to me as a waste of space and my mother kept demanding that I should 'get a life'. Joy. I had recently moved out and with the help of my amazing older brother I got my apartment decorated and furnished. It was simple for a graduate. One bedroom with a walk in closet, another small bedroom for guests, one huge bathroom, a small kitchen and a huge living room. My apartment, perfect. Only £400 a month, which I easily earned of course. I was living off a balanced salary since I worked at Game Station and well my boss has the hots for me and he's my best friend, he always pays me an extra £100. Lucky me! I was happy in my own way. My brother was regularly visiting with his girlfriend and child. My sisters never dared to visit; my oldest sister was too busy partying every night and being a mother of six on the side. Whereas my other sister was fifteen and pregnant already. Disgusting. My brother and I were the only sensible ones in the family. After all I inherited my gamer-rocker personality from him. I've always looked up to him. He did so much for me, although sometimes he was a pain in the ass.
Life was starting to get fun, selling games and having fun with my boss, no not in that way, pervs! I came home to cook super noodles, kick back on the PlayStation 3, pay my bills online and of course sit on the internet with my best friends then there was the odd day where my brother and his girlfriend would come over and hang out. But things started to change, for the better when I found out that Trent was moving in with me. I was happy cause then I'd see him more often than the weekends and he had just graduated, being three years younger than me kinda sucked for him but we got through it. We were always the best of friends. Once his parents decided to kick him out I offered that he'd come and stay with me.
So after Trent settled in, it was nearing Christmas, I decided to go out into the snow, headed to the grocery store for soda and here I was stood outside of the grocery store in the snow, holding a bottle of soda, thinking back.
Little did I know my life was about to change tonight…meeting him…
I continued to walk through the snow, heading towards my apartment, cursing to myself about wearing only vans out in the snow. I thought it'd be quicker to cut through an alley, doing so since the snow was deep I struggled to walk faster. Suddenly something hard was under the snow and I tripped over, spitting out snow and shivering embracing myself I noticed I was on top of someone. Panicking I jolted up only to lose my balance and fall on him again, I heard raspy breaths and I started to dig with my fingertips, which were now frozen from the snow. "Ahh…shit" I hissed and rubbed my hands, I managed to fight the snow off of the person and I noticed he was a very pale gorgeous guy with jet black hair, his bangs were in his face, I gently brushed them away lost in the beauty and I noticed. "Crap." I checked to see if he had a pulse, surprisingly he did, so with all my stuff I helped him up and placed an arm round him to support him. I managed to clench my soda and walked him back to my apartment, which seemed easier than I thought it'd be. Trent was on the sofa playing on Ultimate Marvel vs. Capcom 3 when he saw me stumble inside with the unconscious stranger. "Trent. I need your help please can you prepare a warm bubble bath and I'll need some towels and some spare clothes if that's alright with you." Trent nodded and rushed off into the bathroom, I set the soda down and started to fumble with the buttons of the man's waistcoat, come to think of it he looked like he came from the 19th century or something. As I fumbled with his tie, Trent walked in and managed to help me drag him to the bathroom, together we stripped the stranger and gently placed him into the tub. "Thanks Trent." As Trent went off into his room for clothes I started to bathe the man. I noticed he had dried up blood in his hair. I instantly worried but I saw no sign of any sort of wound on his perfect body. And my he was huge down there. Stop looking damnit! Pervert! I held a face cloth tightly over his eyes as I rinsed his hair twice. Shampoo and Conditioner seeping down his back. I carefully washed his back and I had noticed scars running down his back, gently caressing the cloth over them. I was curious. "Wonder where those came from." I whispered. "Too much time in hell" a posh groggy voice replied. I fell backwards on my ass and gazed up at him. "You're awake…" The man stared and noticed I was holding the cloth, his face was hardened but soon softened noticing I was only bathing, I was no such threat to him. "A-Are you alright?" I questioned nervously, I couldn't help but be afraid. The man shook his head. "Please do not fear me; my name is Sebastian Michaelis, at your service, my Lady." He placed a hand on his chest and bowed his head. I felt butterflies in my stomach, normally girls would call a man like this a freak and demand that he'd stick to modern day slang but for once I had found a gentleman for myself. "It's a pleasure to meet you, my name is Katherine Salvatore."
He gently leaned over, still covered in soap; he took my hand in his and kissed it. "Such a beautiful name." I couldn't help but blush. "I-If you don't mind me asking what happened?" I questioned. He fell silent and looked around. "This does not look like the correct time period."
Sebastian was silent for the rest of the bath, I turned around instinctively when he was washing his body and I insisted on helping him wrap up with the fuzzy towels. I led him into my bedroom and handed him the nightwear. Boxers and a shirt. "Here I hope these will fit you." I turned around allowing him to dry off and dress. Once he was done he noticed me shivering. "My Lady, you are going to catch a cold, change into some nightwear. I insist." I checked out myself, he was right I was freezing and still wet from the snow earlier. I walked into my walk in closet and closed the door while I changed. I was just going to shower in the morning, too late now. As I walked back into the bedroom Sebastian was looking around curiously. "My Lady please can you tell me the year?" I nodded. "It's the 30th November 2012, Sebastian." I answered.
"Oh my… a time jump." He seemed startled. "Sebastian, what happened to you? Why did you end up buried in the snow?"
He sighed and took a seat next to me, while I was slouched forward he was sat up straight. He was so polite. "I was sent back to earth unfortunately I was in a fight with other demons of my kind on the way here. I was growing weaker, starving for souls. I need to start fulfilling contracts" He answered truthfully.
A Demon…
I wanted to scream, I was frozen to the spot but somehow Sebastian didn't budge, he just remained stiff, he was harmless. A part of me felt awful for him yet terrified that he was going to devour my soul or something so without thinking…
"I would like to form a contract with you, but I want to know what is in it for me?"
"Whichever you please. I will help you accomplish a goal. However I do not want to devour your soul, Katherine."
I bit my lip, good point there. "But I will form a contract with you Katherine. I'll give you anything you want just please do not use it to your advantage to become a cruel, spoiled and twisted woman. If that happens I will devour your soul. I do not need another Ciel around here." He muttered.
Ciel oh must've been a bratty ex-master of his. "Sebastian if you help me accomplish all of my goals and be there for me and my friend then yes…you can have me."
I closed my eyes as Sebastian rested his hand on my chest. When I opened them moments later I noticed a purple pentagram imprinted just above my right breast. Sebastian had the exact same mark on his hand. Before I could say anything else Trent was knocking on the bedroom door. "Alright Sebastian time to meet your new roommate."
