It was a slow night at the office. Grell had his scythe confiscated again, Ronald was out reaping souls so The Crimson shinigami decided to pay his favorite reaper a visit. It wouldn't hurt, besides it's not like he had anything better to do. He knocked on the door waiting for the usual "Come in" his superior would call out but there was no response. He frowned before knocking again. Still nothing. This was unusual. William would tell him to enter, hear out his stupid requests to have his scythe back, turn down his sexual advances and eventually kick him out of his office to get his work done. What was wrong? Grell opened the door and he called out quietly "William?"
No response. He let himself into the Shinigami's office and looked around. He stopped in his tracks upon seeing The man half sprawled over his desk sleeping. He walked up to the desk and lay his hand on the other mans cheek, leaning right across the table until he was eye level with the sleeping reaper. "Will?" He called out quietly. "mmmh?" the snoozing shinigami replied. Grell studied his boss as he slept. Ever so gently he hulled the other Shinigami's glasses off and set them aside somewhere they would be safe. "Oh Will" he said, making sure to keep very quiet as he stared at the man he loved most, in one of the most unprofessional of positions. He brought his hand up to touch William's face again after a moment's hesitation he dropped it. "I love you, you know" he whispered to the very important reaper in front of him. William stirred in his sleep ever so slightly, before dozing off again. Grell brought his hand up again and this time he traced the other Shinigami's lips, looking down as he felt the other man's breath escape his lips and warm his fingers. "My sweet Will" he sighed touching the reapers cheek again before getting up slowly and walking around the table. He leaned down and cupped the Shinigami's cheek again before kissing him, so very lightly on the lips. William's eyes fluttered open and then closed again. Grell sighed again before whispering "Sweet dreams Will"… He walked to the end of the room and shut the door on his way out.
"Sweet dreams"…
