Grell glanced around the windows of the cafe from time to time. "Grell, what are you looking for?" He gasped with sparkling eyes just as the bell on the entrance door rang. You turned your head and saw them; shining in black and blue were two guys you were worried about falling in love with. "I guess even nobles with adept butlers like to eat out sometimes." You said to Grell. Your voice must haven't been as quiet as you thought, though, because a pair of sharp, red eyes darted into a gaze with yours. Sebastian smiled at you. "Oh, what a pleasant surprise seeing you here Miss ___."

"Michaelis.." you said in a slightly demeaning tone. You didn't forget what he tried to do last night, and you weren't ready to forgive, either.

"Yeah, Michaelis.. What a gorgeous name! Not to mention those hot.. Goodness, I'm heating up at the thought of it~" Grell sighed dreamily, clasping his hands together while thinking what you assumed were naughty thoughts. You cocked an eyebrow at him, and that reminded him of the fact that everyone in the cafe could hear him. He giggled with a blush rising to his cheekbones.

"I don't think I know a single mature man except the earl, and he's still a minor." You sighed.

Recognizing your voice, Ciel turned around swiftly. "You're not following us the way Grell does, are you?" 

You shook your head. "This red headed baby suggested we come here, and now I know why. He's followed Sebastian around before, I assume?"

"Unfortunately.." Ciel muttered.

"Hey now! Just what does that mean exactly!?" Grell had a pair of red, furrowed brows. You smiled and hushed him. 

"The grown-ups are speaking, Grell." You said in a playful tone, and Ciel smiled at you.

"Not that I don't love your company, but shouldn't you be at school?" Ciel asked.

"That's later on tonight. So, Ciel.. you really love my company?"

"Well, when all you have to speak with are my moronic set of servants, it's so refreshing to speak to someone both intelligent and well-mannered."

"Thank you, Ciel. I have to say it's also nice to speak to you in comparison to everyone else I know." You giggled because you knew Sebastian and Grell were a little offended to hear you say it right in front of them. "You should sit with me, Ciel. I want to stay up to date with the case."

"Ah, yes.. I'm having a meeting with Lau this afternoon. I'll let you know what I find before the end of today. But for now, please, let's just relax.."

"Of course." You said. He sat next to you, leaving only space for Sebastian next to Grell. Ciel ordered Earl Grey with rice pudding, and when it came to the table Ciel put a spoon of pudding in his mouth and sighed with a small but visible smile.

"This actually tastes better than Sebastian's recipe.. ___, here, try some. I insist." He held out a spoonful to your mouth and you took a bite. It really was amazing.

"Better than my Bassy's cooking? How's that even possible~?" He tried to wrap his arm around his, but Sebastian didn't allow it and then said, "Grell not being a creep? How's that even possible?"

"Hey!! I'm not a creep, right ___!? Tell him!" He gently punched Sebastian. To amuse Sebastian and yourself, you looked away from Grell, avoiding eye contact and pretended you didn't hear him. "___!!" You cleared your throat and continued your charade. "Bassy, look at what you did to my little ___!!"

"I did nothing. Maybe if you didn't lustfully follow men around, she wouldn't find you creepy and get the hint." People began to overhear the conversation.

"Well, I'm probably doing better than you are!" People begin to leave.

"What are you two talking about..?" You asked, but they seemed to be too concentrated on their quarrel. Now no one is in the cafe but you four.

"Nonsense, what have you been doing?"

"She calls me late at night."

"Well, I've made her breakfast."

"You do that to Ciel, too. It's nothing special like the conversations that we have. And I know where she lives."

Sebastian smirks. "But have you been in her bedroom when she's in nothing but a nightgown?"

"You bastard! The one thing I asked you not to do, and you go ahead and..!!" He was too frustrated for words and punched Sebastian right in the jaw so hard that he fell off the booth. Grell gasped at the shock of having that amount of strength in him. Sebastian, though, didn't seem too impressed. He glared at Grell with his glowing, demonic eyes and clenched, sharp canines. He stood up and equipped himself with silverware. You decided to put your foot down. "Enough, I say!" The both of them simultaneously drew blank faces and looked to you.

Who's side do you take?

Sebastian: go to 11(S)- The Black Escort
Grell: go to 11(G)- Shinigami Shots

Ooh, intense~~ I love it when guys are fighting over me.. (≧∇≦)
After some thinking and a lot of typing, (lol) I've changed my mind about how to do this chapter.
So basically, I'm going to split it into different parts! This, obviously, is the first part. The second is the path when you're on Sebastian's side of the fight. The third is Grell's side. Choose wisely, baby boo 👅

Expect it to get a little.. Touchy touchy~ ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

Btw, I wanna say thanks to everyone that has thought well of this fanfic!! Great words of encouragement always make me feel more motivated~!

I told you guys I'd be working on it over break~ I'll post the Sebastian & Grell paths at the same time.
