Okay, late nights, insomnia and fanfiction produce some really warped ideas. So between spitting out poetry, sms-ing my girlfriend, listening to some pure South African music, and attempting sleep I came up with this one: What if Grace was gay, and Will was straight? Jack is also straight in this one, and Karen, well. Karen would marry a baboon if it had enough money. Other than that, circumstances are the same, same jobs and stuff. So, here goes, the first instalment of:

Grace&Will

Chapter 1

Grace opened the apartment door, her arms full of groceries; she shut the door with her backside and stumbled to the kitchen. She lowered the packages carefully and looks around the apartment.

"Hello Will." She greeted her roommate. He was sitting on the sofa, watching TV, a six-pack of beers next to him. He held one can and saluted Grace with it.

"Hey there."

Grace hurriedly unpacked the groceries and trotted over to her best friend, she sat next to him and kissed him on the cheek. She helped herself to a beer. "What you watching?"

"Starwars."

Grace relaxed into a rather butch position and started to watch the movie. Suddenly the door burst open and Jack stood in the doorway. He was wearing sweats and had a towel thrown over his shoulder. Neither of his friends looked up.

He started to commentate on his movement across the room and leapt into the kitchen. "And the crowd goes wild." He raised his arms. When he realised he wasn't getting a reaction he opened the fridge and took out a drumstick. "What you boys watching?"

"Starwars." Will and Grace said together.

"Change to channel 35, now!" he said. He wandered over to them and snuggled himself between Grace and the armrest. "It's the national cheerleading competition."

Grace fumbled for the remote and changed the channel. Jack opened a beer and they all lay back, their eyes glued to the TV, they said nothing and silently communicated their thoughts on who was hot and who was not.

When the winner was announced they looked at each other. Bored.

"So." Grace said.

"Yeah." Will sighed.

Jack turned to face both of them. "You guys want to go and hit on chicks?"

"Yeah." They said, standing up. As they reached the door, they opened it to find Karen leaving the lift.

"Where you going?" she asked.

"To hit on chicks." Will said.

Grace touched Karen's shoulder lightly. "You can come if you want."

"No, you boys have fun. I still have half a bottle of Vodka hidden in the bathroom."

Grace smiled at her, "I'll buy you a drink."

Karen linked arms with Jack and Grace and led them towards the elevator.
