(Chapter 1)
(Sebastian's POV)
My name is Sebastian Michealis. I serve the Phantomhive family, and with honor i must say. A butler who can not do much isn't worth his salt. But lately we've been having some problems around here. Ever since Madame Red's death, Grell hasn't left the manor. But my master Ciel allows him here, so I have to tolerate him. After we stopped the doll maker Drosel, Grell hasnt stopped talking about some kiss that he was promised by Ciel. I've asked Ciel about it but he won't say anything to me right now. When Grell revealed himself as Jack the Ripper, I've found myself falling for him deep down inside, and I can't admit it to myself. I'm a deom I'm not supposed to have emotion. It's as if Grell has brought me back from the dead. But he's so... How do I put this? Enchanting? Gorgeous? Incredible? Yess all of the above. I'm all alone in this battle against myself, but it's 3 in the morning, I don't sleep, and neither does Grell...
"Grell?" I said as I walked into the study, "May I join you?"
"Of course Sebas-Chan!My sweet Sebas-Chan, us sitting infront of the moonlight, with tea, and a fire in the fireplace. Ahhh how romantic is it really?" As he leaned his head on my shoulder.
"May I ask you something Grell?" I said hesitantly.
"Of Course! Ask me anything you wiah for I am always here to listen to your wonderous voice!"
"Yess I know this already, But... so I'm really sort of nervous about telling you this, but ever since Madame Red passed, I'm a little more fond of you then I ever thought I would be."
"OH! Well I never thought this day would come! Sebastian Michealis confess his love and all of his affection to me! Grell Sutcliff the simple petty Grim Reaper who has fallen for the lowly contract demon!!" Grell screamed.
"GRELL SHHHHHHH!!! Everyone else sleeps remember?! " I stood up and walked out of the room and to my chambers. I needed a little more time to think it over, but for now, nobody can ever know. I finally have a secret...
(Grell's POV)
When my beloved Sebastian left the room, I felt too over joyed to even speak! But I felt sort of sorry for him too. Poor poor Sebastian can't love anybody else. For he is dead, a demon in the dark. But myself being a demonic presence, AKA the Grim Reaper, he can love me, HAHA I can almost control him in any way that I want. I don't want him to know that though, because I really do genuinely care about him too much to hurt hi, like that.
I walked into Sebastian's bedroom later that night.
"Sebastian?" I whispered
"Yes Grell? May I help you with something?" He said to me cooingly. Ahh he looked so perfect, in the glow of the candlelight, reading his book, and looking up at me at just the perfect angle.
"You know that I love you too much to hurt you, and i do genuinely care about you. All I ask from you is that you follow your heart and whatever choose, then I will respect it." For once I was actually being honest.
"Thank you Grell, that really does mean a lot to me. Would you like to spend the next few hours of the night here?"
"Yes Sebastian, I would like that very much"
So I stayed the night in his chambers doing nothing but talking, laughing and playing games. But then morning came and he had to leave to take care of that selfish brat Ciel, and we had to part ways, but only temporarily. But every but every night from then on I spent in Sebastian's chambers, talking all night, and just enjoying wach other's company and stories. When it Finally happened...
We were talking about things that we have in common and making a list. But then it got quiet, the perfect moment, and Sebastian got closer to me with every second, he leaned into me and there was a spark. Sebastian Michealis had just kissed me...
"HUH?!" Sebastian pulled away and opened his eyes suddenly, " That was so wrong! A Mistake! I am so sorry! You can NEVER tell anyone what just happened here! Get out!" And as I walked away my heart sank into sorrow as he called our love nothing but a poor mistake...
(Sebastian's POV)
Ever since I kissed Grell I've felt weird. His lips were so soft and warm, he's all that I can foucus on! I can't stop thinking about him.. It's been two weeks since we kissed , and Ciel is starting to notice my unfoucused behaviour, and that I'm not myself. I haven't spoken to Grell since, and I've been avoiding him. I think I may be ready to talk to him. But maybe just a little bit longer... But maybe later tonight.
(A few hours later)
I walked into the study later that night.
"Grell, what happened between us was wrong, I don't know wha--" He moved so fast, I barely saw him. He put one finger over my mouth.
"Shhhh. I don't need to hear more of that. But why Sebastian? Why do you deny your love for me. I know it's there. I can get inside your head remember? But just know that I love you Sebastian Michealis"
I was sort of shocked, I never took Grell for the kind of person he revealed himself to be just now.. But what am I thinking? I still have my contract with Ciel... I don't care for the others very much. But something inside of me is telling me to abandon all of that and run away with Grell. I need to ask him why I feel this way...
A few hours later...
"Grell... I can't figure out why I feel like this. But I want to run away with you, and I can't leave Ciel. I have a contract. Could you tell me why I feel this way? I mean... If you know." I asked
"Yes I can Sebastian... I am a reaper. You are a demon. Dead. You will always be attracted to me. For centuries, I have watched dopplegangers of you fall in love with others. But it never works, because you will always want me. And you know that deep down in your cold heart." He told me.
"Grell, is that true?? Am I forced to love you just because I'm dead?! But I do have a confession... I love Claude... I love the danger, the hateful glares, and his amber eyes! oh they make me melt!" I yelled... Knowing how much that would hurt him inside... I don't love Claude, I hate the fucking bastard... But I do love Grell... And I think he knows it too... Why can't I just accept the fact that I'm in love with him... The fact that I'm in love with Grell Suttcliff...
