What did he do?

Grell slowly got out of her car, wiping up her eyes and walking into the store. She kept her head down while she searched for something to cook. "Grell?" She looked up and saw Sebastian, giving her a warm smile. "Hello Sebastian." He looked at her, his eyes narrowing with suspicion. She never said his full name unless she was very upset. "Grell, what did Claude do?" She looked away, gulping. "He did nothing. Nothing is wrong."

Sebastian then gently grabbed her arm, but let go as she shrieked in pain. "Grell..?" She looked away as she felt him pull up her sweater sleeve, revealing a developing bruise, then flinched as she heard a deep growl come from the Raven. "Grell... Did he do that to you?" Ever so slowly, she nodded. Sebastian dropped the groceries in his hand and pulled her out of the store, his hand firmly yet gently around hers. He took her to his car and opened the door for her, and she got inside without a word. He got in on the driver's side and shut his door, his vibrant eyes looking at her with caution. He was right. Claude was hurting Grell.

"Grell... How long has he been doing this?" She didn't answer, her green eyes looking at the ground. "Grell please. I want to help you." Sebastian was then taken by surprise when Grell had a emotional breakdown, tears streaming down her face and she was hiccuping loudly. The Raven immediately pushed up the middle seat and pulled Grell to him, hugging her tightly. That's when he noticed the bruises. Some were scattered through out her neck, while others had found their way to her chest. 

"Grell...? How did those get there?" She just shrieked and cried harder, wailing in fear. Sebastian waited for her to calm down, which took a good half hour. As she slowly settled down, he pulled out some tissues from the glove box and handed them to her. She took them and wiped away her tears, then blew her nose loudly. "Grell?" She took in a shaky breath, then said "I-It's been going on for a year... It started with him calling me things like bitch or whore, but then he started hitting me." As she spoke, it took every ounce of strength Sebastian had to not hunt Claude down and dispose of the vermin he was right at the moment.

 "Then it turned to everyday abuse. H-He doesn't like me being around you... That's why he hit me the other day... A-And now he.... He...." She cried again, looking down with embarrassment and shame. "He what? You can tell me." She kept her eyes low as she whispered "He r-raped me."
