POV - 3rd Person

/later that day ~ /

Athena remained in her study, refusing to come out or see anyone. The demons words were obviously getting to her.

The servants began to worry, and waited for Sebastian to come back from his errands. They didn't enjoy seeing Athena so upset. She was refusing to eat or even have a cup of tea. She simply wanted to be alone.

She stared out the window and tapped her fingers on her desk, completely lost in thought. It was only seconds later that a red figure in the distance caught her attention. She rose an eyebrow and shook her head, already knowing who it was.

Athena quickly got up and was about to leave her study when a certain red reaper appeared in front of her door.

"Miss me~??" Grell teased and looked around the room, not seeing Sebastian anywhere. He pouted and sighed as crossed his arms and looked away. He was obviously disappointed "Where is our dearest Bassy?"

[ POV ~ Athena ]

I took a deep breath, trying to keep calm and mostly trying to keep myself from killing this man. I never thought once in my life, that I would come to hate anything more than these demons, but I was wrong. If anything, I despise this reapers even more.

Grell is ontop of that list. He killed my best friend not too long ago. Angelina.
Of course she was the ripper that terrorized the city of London, however she was like family to me. After what happened, Angelina was the only one who understood the pain of loss. The pain I felt.

"Leave before I -"

"Before you what? Kill me~?" Grell teased. "Before you call Sebastian? - I think I'd like that very much ~"

I rolled my eyes and went back to my desk, seeing the shinigami was not going to leave.

"Don't be so glum dear!!" Grell chuckled "I mean I wouldn't be if I were you, even more so after what you and my Bassy did last night ~" he mumbled and crossed his arms.

I could feel the blood on my cheeks pooling up and I looked away. How did everyone know??

"Don't tell me you still hold a grudge against me Athena."

"You killed my best friend Grell. So fu-"

"She was going to kill you." Grell interrupted "Simply say thank you, and get over it. I did you a favor."

I narrowed my eyes at his words, and I knew he was right. She was the
Infamous Jack the Ripper, the one the Queen had me tracking down for months. It seemed so long ago now.

"Grell..." I began nervously, remembering his words.

The reaper looked up at me, his eyes curios. I sighed and looked away.

"Remember you were willing to tell me who killed my parents?" I asked, that was something Sebastian wouldn't even me an answer to. I was so close to the truth that had it not been for William.
" I think I need your help..."

"Hmmmm ~ ah ! Yes! That's right. Offers up dear. I got myself in big trouble for that." Grell hissed, I knew
He wasn't allowed to work for a while for killing Angelina and breaking other rules, rumor has it he was even demoted for some time.

"Well what can you tell me?"

"Nothing."

"Then why the hell are you here!? You know Sebastian wasn't here to begin with you flamboyant reaper!" I shouted, he had pushed my patience to the max, and now a days, that wasn't hard at all.
