Kuroshitsuji One Shots [Character X Reader]

Fazing You [Grell Sutcliff]

I don't own Kuroshitsuji nor you.

“Boo!” You stared blankly at the red-head grim reaper, who tried to scare the hell out of you for the twenty-ninth time on that day—only to fail miserably yet again. This kind of occurrence was already included in your every day schedule. You were an official member of the Shinigami Dispatch Association, and unfortunately, the stupid slacker, Grell Sutcliff, was your partner. Despite being labeled as that, he was your best friend. You’ve been with him for as long as you can remember. That meant that you’ve been putting up with his stupid obsession over none other than the infamous Phantomhive butler, Sebastian Michaelis. You’ve been getting headaches from his stupid rants as to why Will-kun and Bassy could ignore a lady like him, err … her (?). Of course you always listened to him because that was what best friends would normally do. You stared impassively at the stupid face of your best friend for a few more minutes before walking toward your chair. You have a lot of works to do and Grell has no plan on helping you. Shame on his stupid face, you thought. “What? I failed again?” Grell dramatically asked as he walked behind you.

“I guess so.” Was your short reply as you sat on your chair. You immediately grabbed the reports that you needed to finish that day.

“_____, I swear I will devise a plan that will scare the hell out of you! Hahaha!” He laughed like he just lost his wit. Oh wait, that has been his case ever since, you thought as you let out a sigh. He already tried every possible way just to scare you, but none of that worked. “What could possibly scare you?” He thought out loud. You took a brief glance at him and saw him tapping his index finger on his chin—thinking about all possible ways that might make your heart jump out of your chest because of shock. Stupid, I’m scared of losing you, you sadly thought. Yes, as much as you hated to admit it, you've been in love with this stupid, Bassy-obsessed and dense red-head reaper in front of you. He could be very stupid and oblivious and not to mention, handful, but these were included in the reasons as to why you fell for him. It was not like you could stop your stupid heart from beating wildly when he was near you. You always fell for him over and over again every time he called your name. Well, he could always make you laugh at the end of the day.

“Your face is scary enough, Grell.” You said impassively without looking at him. Your eyes were glued on the reports you were busy with.

“Hey! How could you say that to a lady?!”

“Grell, if you don’t have any plan on helping me, might as well consider leaving first as a favor. I have a lot of works to do.” You calmly said as you continued to work on your—both your and Grell’s—report.

“Fine!” He pouted at you before dramatically walking out of your office. You sighed heavily as your shoulders slumped on your chair. If he could only realize your feelings. No! You were not so going to confess to that stupid thing no matter what! You were his best friend and furthermore, he won’t ever look at you like that. He has Bassy and Will-kun in his very feminine heart. You always felt a pang of pain when Grell talked about his undying crush on those two. But it was not like you would yell at him to stop talking about them because you were jealous. And no, you would not even admit you were jealous with males even though it was so obvious. You could be very tsundere and stubborn at times. You two would never be more than best friends. He would only see you as a friend that was why you thought that confessing to him would only make things awkward between the two of you.
At least that was what you thought.

Grell strolled around every place he could go to after being kicked out of your office by none other than you yourself. Hmph! Why is she so cold these past few days? I can’t believe she kicked me out! He thought half-angrily and half-worriedly. And then something popped in his brain—if he has one. He walked to the direction of your house until he reached your front door. He got the keys inside his pocket and unlocked your door. Yes, you gave him a spare key. It was not like you wanted to! You just have no choice because he threatened you that he would always have his fabulous entrance via your windows. You wouldn’t want to spend so much money for new sets of window glasses every single day. Grell made his way into your room and spotted a black notebook on your bed. He went closer to see what it was and read the word ‘diary’ which was printed in fancy-looking letters. “Ha! Now, let me know your secrets!” Grell said between maniacal laughs before smiling a smile of victory with his toothy grin. He set his body comfortably on your bed and started reading what could be possibly written in your precious diary.
 
Dear Diary,
 
Grell Sutcliff is the most stupid thing on earth that I've ever encountered!
 
“—Hey! How dare she call me stupid thing in her freaking diary?!” He complained after reading the first sentence. And then he continued reading while suppressing himself from tearing the diary into halves.
 
He always talked about that demon. Bassy here, Bassy there. Sebas-chan this, Sebas-chan that. Then William’s matter would follow suit. Afterwards, he would always complain about the way those two brutally kicked him out yet again. To be honest, I want him to stop pursuing those two anymore. But it’s not like I can say that to him out loud. I don’t want him to get hurt, but I don’t want him to hate me either. I don’t want Grell Sutcliff—the most stupid thing in the world—to hate me. He’s the most important person to me. Diary, I know this sounds creepy, but I’m in love with that stupid thing. He’s just too damn dense to notice it, but being able to be around him as his best friend is more than enough for me. I want him to be happy.
 
Grell could only wide his orbs in shock at what he just read. He was rendered speechless for a few more moments. He smirked to himself and said, “Stupid woman, how can she continuously insult me while telling her diary that she loves me?” He then put down the diary on its place and walked out of your house.
