I Promise You ( Grelliam / Kuroshitsuji / Black Butler Fan Fic / Grell Sutcliff x William T. Spears )

Fourteen

"BECAUSE, REAPER GRELL SUTCLIFF, I LOVE YOU! I FELL DEEPLY IN LOVE WITH YOU! I DONT KNOW HOW AND I DONT KNOW WHY! I. LOVE. YOU.!!!"

Those words. Those words hurt. They hurt William T. Spears more than anything. The pain he received as soon as he said them was far more agonizing than anything possible. Its a surprise they didnt kill him. No, thats not sarcastic. They literally hurt him and nearly killed him. And they did something they havent done in years. Decades. Ages. For such a long, long, long time.

A tear. A tear slipped. Out of the normally stoic, "stiff" man.

Grell. Oh that poor, dear, Grell Sutcliff... Words cant explain anything that has to do with him at this moment. William was staring directly into his eyes the entire time. Not staring at Grell Sutcliff. They were staring at Grell Sutcliff.

Soon enough, more tears came. From William. Silent ones. No...not silent...William himself made no noise. The room was completely silent, like the world had completely stopped and put on mute. But the tears...the tears seemed to be screaming. Screaming of emotions.

Grell had no idea what was going on until he felt something. Arms. He had run to William, grabbing him in a tight hug. And those arms he felt, belonged to William T. Spears. The blood red reaper also hadnt noticed his own tears spilling out of his own two shaded jade green eyes, though the droplets hadnt a chance to go anywhere, as they were instantly soaked into the black fabric of William's suit jacket. Grell was holding onto the brunette like the world...no...everything space and earth, depended on it. Ohh but William was holding also, but even tighter. This was a touch he had needed for so very long. One from any individual would have sufficed, but with this certain individual being Grell Sutcliff, made it all the more emotional...needed...

Finally, after about what might have even been 30 minutes, Grell raised his head and the two stared into the other's matching eyes.

"Will...i had no idea i brought back all of that...i am so sorry...i will never, ever be able to apologize enough! But Will...theres something YOU need to know...William T. Spears...its always been you. Only you. Yes, i flirted with those other people, but i only ever meant it when it was with you. Hell i couldnt care less if all of the others just vanished. Its only you. It always has been and always will be. Only you. William T. Spears...I love you...so much...and i have never felt this way about anyone. Madame Red? yeah, that wasnt love. I may have even lied to myself to say it was love. No. It wasnt. Nothing was. Ive never felt these feelings you cause for me. Only you." Grell struggles to find the words. He couldnt just say that easily! he never expected for this to EVER happen! he couldnt have rehearsed it in the mirror! he never knew this could happen. And the words...he struggled to use the right words that would somewhat make sense if what he felt. The feelings are far too deep.

"William...Natalia hurt you...i know she did. And no, i WILL never experience it. Because Will, i will never leave you or hurt you. I wouldnt dare do that." He continues. His next 3 words cause another silent, yet screaming tear to fall from William's eyes. And after those words, the two men shared a very long, needed, passionate, and way over the top love filled kiss. Those 3 words?:

"I Promise You"
