-Grell pov-
I ran as fast as I could. My lungs were burning with the effort and I felt like passing out. My legs felt like lead at this point and I knew I wouldn't be able to keep running. The only thing on my mind at this point was Will. He needed to know that The kiss was nothing. That there wasn't even a spark between Sebastian and I.
I don't even think I could feel a spark if I tried. I flirt a lot and act like I'm having the time of my life, but that isn't really me. I always keep my feelings in a jar. I've come close to loving someone before, but I just ended up killing her. Madam Red was the closest I've ever come to loving someone. That's the only reason I kept her red coat. I'm incapable of loving anyone unconditionally. It isn't possible because I don't WANT anyone to know the real me.
I finally couldn't stand it anymore and stopped running. My head was pounding and my heart was speeding, through blurry eyes I could see William going ahead. He was using the rooftops, something that I couldn't do because I was now human. He looked back one last time. He looked a little surprised to see that I was no longer following him. He still thinks I have all the powers of a reaper.
We locked eyes for a split second before he took off in the other direction. When he was out of site, I leaned against a wall and gently slid down it until I was sitting on the ground. I looked around and noticed that the ally was completely deserted. I thought that Sebastian would be following me by now, but it seemed he just stayed behind.
Why did I just leave him without explaining myself?
I suddenly felt bad. This was my one chance to get close to Sebastian, so why didn't I feel anything when he kissed me, and why did I run after Will? It's not like I needed his permission. I can do whatever I want! Why do I always worry about what William will think of me?
Suddenly my thoughts were interrupted by a deadly laughter. I turned my head to the source of the noise.
...It was that bratty girl again!
I could make out the details a lot more clearly in the daylight. Her eyes were a dark red, the color of blood. She was wearing a simple red dress. It flowed down to her knees, showing off her high-heeled black boots. She had the biggest smile on her face.
"Hello bastard." she said simply. She stood with her arms crossed. She was obviously enjoying herself.
I rolled my eyes; I should have expected this. It's just my luck that as soon as I leave Sebastian, I get cornered by this kid.
"Ok, what do you want girly? Why did you turn me into a useless human?" I spat.
The girl tossed her head back and laughed. "What I want is for you to die as painfully as possible. Your weaker then I am now, so Killing you won't be as hard as it would be if you had your powers. The beauty of it all is that now, I can strip away everything that you ever cared about, just like you did to my sister. The only difference is that I'm not going to make it as quick. I'm going to saver every moment of torture that I can possibly get from you."
I got up off the ground, pushing myself away from the wall so that I was facing her directly. "That's sweet, but I don't have time for your little revenge spree. I've got to get back to the dispatch and report my progress. This may seem like a surprise to you, but grown-ups have something we call jobs. A little girl like you couldn't possibly understand that."
She stopped smiling. Her hands went into fists and her cheeks turned a light pink. "I'm not a kid, dammit! Just stop talking, your getting on my nerves."
I smiled just as evilly as she did. "Your pretty short to, aren't you? What are you, twelve?" I asked.
"I'm seventeen!" her voice was rising each time she spoke. It was easy to tell she was getting pissed off.
She took in a deep breath, letting it out in a sigh. The anger in her face subsided and she unclenched her fists. "That's enough."
She looked calm, almost like a different person. "I'm done talking." The smile returned to her lips. "Lets get to the good part, shall we?"
-Will pov-
What just happened? Why am I running?
I shook my head, still confused as to everything that had taken place. As I jumped from building to building, I couldn't help but wonder why Grell didn't following me. He looked like he wanted to, so what stopped him?
The world felt quite as I ran through. I herd the wind in my ears, but other then that, I was lost in thought.
I should have never left the dispatch. I was sure that Grell was in trouble, but as it turns out he was only slacking off at work by hanging around that demon all day. What does Grell see in that thing? Sebastian is a tamed dog controlled by a kid.
I stopped running. The weather was changing and I suddenly realized why it was so quite. There were no people outside. They were all in there homes or somewhere safe. I could see people peeking out windows and double locking there doors. I looked up at the sky and saw a huge tornado forming. The once sunny sky was now turning black.
I turned to my right as I herd the sound of cracking thunder, A lightning bolt hit the ground, causing a small fire to start. The fire made several people scream in panic. My heart skipped a beat. I couldn't tell why, but for some reason I had a strong feeling that I should turn back and check on Grell. Even If he's skipping work, I should at least make sure that he's safely inside.
What are you thinking William? Get a hold of yourself! Grell is a reaper, He can very well take care of himself in a storm. Besides, if you don't get back to the office then you would be missing a day at work, which you haven't done in years!
I kept trying to convince myself that I should just continue forward, but nothing was working. Even though I know He can take care of himself, I still get the feeling that there's something wrong with him.
I let out a long sigh, thinking Grell is more trouble then he's worth. Reluctantly, going on pure instinct, I turned back and headed in the direction from which I came.
-Sebastian pov-
As soon as Grell was out of site, I gave a demon's smile. "Well now, that was a surprising reaction." I said to no one in particular. I had always had my suspicion's that Grell had feeling for William, It looks like my little test just proved it.
Even though I knew that Grell was safe with William, I still went after him because of masters orders. I loath the annoying red head, but I can't let anything happen to him while he is under my watch.
To be continued...
