Shinigami Marching Band (Black Butler)

Chapter Twenty Two ~ Partial chap and closer.

So guys, this is just going to be the rest of the chapter that I had planned here and then im just going to tell you all what I had planned for the rest of the story panning out. I dont have much time to write anymore what with work and frequent moving, not to mention I've been bridging into other fandoms and losing most interest here. Sorry but stuff just happens, y'know. 

"Ronnie what on earth are you talking about? We're not engaged, trust me, I would not be this calm if we were." Grell clarified.

"Not to mention we're still in high school. It would be ridiculous to get engaged at such an age. Plus it's very clear that we're not at the marriage stage of our relationship yet." I started rambling on about all the reasons it would be illogical and completely out of the question at the moment, and apparently there were a lot more reasons than I had initially thought. Grell covered my mouth with his hand and shooshed me, giving me this look that told me it would be in my best interest to stop talking. I relaxed a little and shut up and he pulled his hand away. 

"Good. So ... Ronnie. Explain. Now." He snapped at Ron, though I was sure that a portion of the anger was directed towards me due to the list I had just spewed. Ron looked nervous because Grell had used the parental tone again but cleared his throat regardless and attempted to explain quickly.

"Well I don't have a lot of detail but based on the descriptions I'm guessing it was Will who ... "proposed" ... and then apparently you tackled him and started making out in the middle of the rink." He pointed a finger at Grell.
Both of us now knew what was going on and for what seemed like the millionth time today my face was red, but to help my case Grell's was too. 

".... Okay. I can see how they might have taken it the wrong way. Will just tied my skate and then we kinda, fell over ..... and I landed on him .... and then we made out on the ice." My face turned as dark red as Grell's hair as he continued to explain. I could not believe that such an innocent thing was misconstrued as a proposal nor that Grell could talk about the situation so calmly. I wouldn't be able to tell our friends about how we made out on the ice without stammering a million times and flushing a deeper red. It must've been a talent that Grell had or something.

Both Ron and Adrian sighed in relief as the situation was cleared up, but that didn't stop the onslaught of strangers walking by to congratulate us as they went about getting their warm beverages and snacks in the cafe area.

((okay so now for the rest of the spoilers and how this was going to end.)) 

So basically the drama from the skating rink plus the picture that was taken in the woods would start some serious rumors and drama for Will and Grell at school. It would escalate into worse bullying (all the doing of one Sebastian Michaelis that was jealous but winds up dating this shrimp Ciel from the next town over) and wind up with a call home in which Will's parents are called. They'd tell him not to hang around Grell anymore and put him on more strict schedules so that he can never really leave the house, including taking away his driving privileges and taking him to school themselves. That would of course cause some strain on the duo's relationship and cause some disputes between them. Will tries to explain about his parents ruling but Grell is still upset despite trying to say that its ok. More fighting ensues, then eventually they make up. In the background Ron and Undertaker are doing well and just supporting their friends individually, taking turns with each one since neither Grell nor Will were talking to each other for a while. 

In the long run they make it through the year, their band competitions go swimmingly except for one fall in placement during their quarrels in which William drops Grell at the end of the show on the field. The band wins championships and they all go to Disneyland to celebrate which was hella cute. They graduate together and are together. Will asks Grell to go steady and they exchange class rings. Will also no longer cares about his parents opinions, tells them off (with Grell present) about how he's gay, in love with his redhead and proud. They storm off and take Will's car with them. He moves in with Grell for a while and a couple of months after graduation they move into a two bedroom apartment with Ron and Adrian. (four incomes just helps since they're all working their first jobs and saving for college.)  

Ron and Adrian wind up doing the frick frack for realsies after senior prom. Grell and William wait until their one year anniversary to do the do. (of course there would have been little tidbits here and there before then with like HJs or Bjs but never the real deal until the 1 year.) 

Grell winds up getting a job for a fashion magazine as an editor for his career. William works in a law firm so they bring in quite the salary together. They wind up getting married about five years later, Grell wearing a dress of course and Will wearing a nice white tux, and adopting a kid (that i never named tbh.) 

Adrian and Ron get married the year after high school on one trip to Vegas. Though they never really worried about a divorce or a re-do marriage that all their friends could go to. The important thing was that they were together. Adrian (of course) wound up as a funeral planner and Ron works at a casino that he later becomes the manager of. They have a simple life, nothing too extraordinary or lavish, and wind up adopting twins, a boy and a girl. 

And I think that's about it for what I had planned for this story. Im sure there would have been littler things sprinkled in here and there for date ideas or holidays but it would have all been pointless fluff or little side drama tidbits that wouldn't be particularly important to the storyline in the end. 

Im sorry that I couldn't finish through with writing the whole thing but as i explained at the beginning of the chapter life has really hit my schedule hard and packed it entirely.  If there's anything that I left unresolved here or any questions you had, then by all means feel free to comment and I'll be happy to answer you.
