Grell sat at her desk  in her office with a smirk, her smile said calm however her eyes were full of rage, she was obviously planning something. A tall man with pale skin, green eyes ,black hair and black rimmed glasses,  stood in the doorway watching the fellow reaper intently with a Stoic expression, the man had a very basic black suit on with a tie and gloves. 

"William" The ruby reaper finally spoke, but didn't move her eyes to look at the man.

"What is it Grell?" The man who was  surprised that Grell used is name instead of just will, replied with a monotone voice, despite his slight shock .

"I need you to do me a favour" Grell's smile only grew , William didn't respond urging her to continue "I need to go do something, cover my shift on Tuesday will you darling?" Grell's question was more of a statement. Usually William would decline immediately, but he could tell that something was wrong with his co-worker, recently she's been less disruptive and actually done some work, Grell only did this when they were planning something important. 

"Alright Grell I'll cover your shift for you" Grell was slightly surprised at his response, finally turning her gaze to him smiling, as she did so"Only if you work overtime"  William adjusted his glasses, Grell's smile faded and was replaced by a annoyed look, however William could tell she was happy by the gleam in her eye.

"Fine I promise I'll work overtime"  Grell sighed, William simply hummed in response and walked away. A soft gentle smile and a light blush found it's way on to Grell's face as she thought about her little Dear, but immediately scowled at the thought of the many things Trancy could be doing to them. Poor Dear. 


The said "Dear" in question was currently stuck in a tree in the beautiful gardens of the Trancy manor trying to be coaxed out of the tree by Hannah and the triplets while Alois was in hysterics . (Y/N) was wrapped tightly around the tree absolutely terrified, the reason the neko was in a tree was because Alois Trancy thought it would be an excellent idea to scare the ever loving shit out of (Y/N) while they were attending to the flowers. 

"Angel, please come down" Hannah pleaded, however the neko was still shivering, the triplets were attempting to climb the tree without scaring (Y/N). Alois' laughing fit finally came to an end and his face returned to its usual devoid of emotionless state, now bored with this game. 

"Claude get the neko down" Alois ordered the butler who was apparently there the whole time. 

"Yes your highness" Claude bowed, in one swift motion the demon jumped into the tree and swooped the neko into his arms and jumped back down landing with his knees bent and one of his hands on the ground for balance. As he stood back up he adjusted the neko in his arm. (Y/N) clung to the butler whimpering and swishing their now puffed up tail back and forth, they were wearing the same outfit they wore every day, that damn short black dress. 

"are" whispered Thompson as he stood to the right of  Claude.

"you" whispered Timber as he stood to the left of Claude. 

"alright?" whispered Canterbury as he stood next to  Thompson.

(Y/N) soon relaxed, loosing their grip on Claude's uniform. 

"I'm fine" the neko answered while slightly glaring at Alois, who paid them no mind.

"Um... Claude?"  (y/n) looked at the butler, they were now eye level "you can put me down now" (y/n) blushed. Claude squeezed his arm lightly  against the nekos thigh before tilting his arm allowing them to jump down from his arms and land on their feet in front of the butler. Hannah situated herself to the left of (y/n), petting their ears while facing Alois. Alois looked at all of his servants, he could tell they were all angry even Claude which was new, why is Claude mad? he thought. He found it funny. He decided to restart an old game he hadn't played in a while. The "how cruel I have to be to get Claude to react" game  he always seemed to fail that game, but with the (Y/n) as a new player, it should be an easy win.  A large smirk found it its way on the Blonde Earls face. This should be fun.
