Alois hadn’t expected Ciel to kiss back. Naturally, he was shocked when he felt the younger’s arms slip around his waist. At first he thought perhaps this was part of some kind of plan to get him away, but then he felt Ciel push into the kiss. The unfamiliar sensation of butterflies in his stomach was beginning to come about. Was this really happening? His eyes fluttered open for a brief moment, sneaking a glance at the young earl. Alois was surprised to see that the boy’s eyes were closed and.. was he blushing? A small smile tugged at the older boy’s lips as he let his eyes fall shut once more. He had to admit he was enjoying this very much.
The kiss continued for a short while, slowly intensifying as the seconds passed by. Alois was curious as to how experienced the bluenette was when it came to this sort of thing, so he allowed his lips to part ever so slightly, simply to judge the boy’s reaction. After what seemed like quite a while, Alois pulled away, nipping lightly at Ciel’s lower lip in the process.
“So, Phantomhive, was that your first real kiss?”
This was going against something he believed in - or he thought he believed in. Rest assured, Ciel would not admit anything about this gesture was good, though it felt like something he’s never felt before. Given, he’s never kissed Elizabeth like this. It would be a complete mess and it would crush his name into the dirt if she or anyone found out about their little kiss. Ciel trusted that Alois wouldn’t let that happen, since in the end it would hurt him as well. But as far as embarrassing himself went, he would agree that this was the worst thing he’s ever done. But somehow–
He didn’t mind it.
Ciel tried to ignore the feeling in his chest. His heart, beating way too fast for comfort, felt like it was about to burst. He tried to ignore a lot of things– emotion, feeling, his thoughts… they were all screaming at him different things. The warmth from Alois was almost comforting when they were so close. But why? He was just nervous before. He was still nervous. His breath was only steady because he forced it to be. He was angry. Yes, angry. Angry at Alois for challenging him like this. Angry at the feelings that corresponded from it. It was all so damn pointless.
When Alois started to pull away, Ciel moved himself closer for just a moment - just enough to hold that warm feeling for a second more. When they finally parted, Ciel’s blush considerably darkened. Not only had the blonde gotten a kiss from him, but he enjoyed the kiss too! His eyes widened at Alois, at the realization that he was given his first real kiss. “Um..” What could he say? “I..” he looked away from Alois, and released his arms from around the boy. “It’s not a kiss if it comes from you.”
