Chapter 13: His Courage

"Will! Will! Help ME! WILL!" The sound of Grell's voice echoed inside Will's mind in the darkness.

"What Grell? I'm right here." Will responded trying to find him.

"WILL!" Grell screamed. Will ran throughout the darkness coming to a light. Once he hit that light he was inside Grell's apartment, broken lamps and clothes everywhere, the room was torn apart. "WILL!" Another scream came passing through Grell's lips bringing Will to his senses. He ran inside Grell's bedroom to see Grell being held down painfully with Sebastian on top of him slapping him across his face.

"Shut up!" Sebastian said as yanking on Grell's hair.

"WILL!"

"I'm right here Grell!" Will stepped forward to see the two disappear, soon replaced by Grell's bloody form on the operating table.

"You could never have saved him, he was always mine. Never could he be yours." Sebastian whispered into Will's ear. "How does it feel to watch his life slip away from his eyes before you?" Will tried to turn his head away from the sight before him but a strong hand grasped his chin turning his gaze back forcing him to look. "See what you have done? See what you have caused? This is what happens when you act foolish. Pig."

"I can't-why-I-" Will was stuttering for the right words that he attempted to form but his voice wouldn't allow him to speak. Suddenly he screamed as tears fell from his eyes, "GRELL!"

It was around 3:40 am when Will woke up, less than 3 hours after he collapsed at the vending machine. Snapping his head up he realised he was laying in Grell's mother's lap. From the sudden head rush he bought a hand to his head as he felt the pulsing headache begining to occur. Seeing that her and her husband were asleep Will took that opportunity to sneak off to clear his head. Just walking past the nurse who helped him early who was at the front desk and stepping outside into the cold air he took a breath of freshness. He was going insane again, just seeing the look on Grell's dying face in his dream brought him to madness. Will could only wonder as he watched his breath fog up the glass of the window, was Grell really alright now that he helped him calm down? He had to know. Bringing himself to return into the hospital a nurse was standing there waiting for him.

"Hello. William Spears I assume?" She questioned with a professional smile on her face. Behind her were Grell's parents awake and sitting up ready to see their son. "Grell has woken up and he's in recovery if you would follow me." She turned to Grell's parents. "Your welcome to come to if you wish to see your son." She smiled. The whole walk to Grell's room was filled with tension. Grell's mother wasn't much into noticing the dark auras around her husband and her son's apparent boyfriend. She just continued walking behind the two wanting to see her son.

Grell was sitting up in his bed with his head facing the floor, strangly a smile on his face. The reason for the smile was because the doctor told him about all Will had done for him. Saving him, and bringing him back to life metaphorically speaking. Grell lifted his head when he heard footsteps coming into the room. Will was the first one to see Grell in his bandaged state. Quickly Will sped his way to his love and placed his hands on Grell's face and whispered, "You will explain everything to me, and I will to you ok?"

"Ok." Grell weakly responded as wrapping his arms around Will's neck. Following the action Will placed his arms around Grell in an embrace. during the hug Will felt Grell give a shiver through his skin, a shake of fear. Will lifted his head to see Grell's father in the doorway followed by his mother. "Da-Dad?" Grell whispered.

"What the hell did you do?" John questioned. "I was at home watching TV nothing out of the blue and then suddenly I get a call from the hospital telling me my runaway son was in the Emergency Room."

"You kicked me out." Grell responded looking at the floor, noticing his discomfort Will sat next to Grell on the bed and placed his arms around him for support.

"And this guy? Why? Why did I have to have a son that was a homo? My only son!"

"Please stop." Grell muttered.

"Knock it off old man, your upsetting him." Will stated.

"Why? It is my right to understand why my family can not live on in the world. You idiot why do you do this to me?"

"I said stop." Grell pleaded again.

"I am warning you old man." Will commented again, his voice full of threat.

"What are you going to do? Your no more of a man that he is! You are just as bad! You are a disgrace to influence-"

"Shut up old man!" Will stood up from his seat heading toward Grell's father.

A fist was thrown, a grunt in slight pain, the thrower rubbed their fingers trying to rid themself of the discomfort. "I said stop." Grell said as rubbing his hands across his knuckles. To his side was Will who was bug eyed staring at the scene that just played out before him. Feeling weak Grell's legs began to give way, quickly Will was at his side again holding him up. "Make fun of me dad, you've done it since you realised my situation, hell I'm completely used to it whereever I go now thanks to you. It is the worst pain to hear words people call me that you couldn't even begin to imagine in that skull of yours. I my not be the son you wanted but I am still your flesh and blood! I have a voice. When I become of age and have enough money I will become a woman so everyone would just stop judging me!" Grell squeaked with his raspy voice. "I love Will dad, yes he is a guy but I would rather have love with a man than non feeling partnership with a woman." Grell lifted his face toward Will's own. Bringing their lips closer, Grell closed the distance between them making a kiss in front of his open mouthed father. Pulling apart leaving Will still awestruck Grell spoke, "This is who I am and who I will be, deal with it." With that Grell forced himself back to his bed and collapsed breathing in all the oxygen around him.

Holding his stomach, Grell's father slowly backed out of the room to compose his thoughts on the scene that just occured with his wife following. Inside Grell's hospital room Will brought his and Grell's hands together linking their fingers." That was very brave of you, to stand up to your father." Will stated.

"I don't think I could ever do it again." Grell said as his face became red. "I just couldn't let him yell at you like that when you did nothing."

"I did. I made the very mistake of leaving you alone, and I am sorry for that. Never again will I leave you alone to let another thing like this occur." Will gently squeezed Grell's hand. "I love you Grell."

"I Love you too." Grell said as closing his eyes to rest. Will stared at the sleeping graceful form next to him. He had to know what occured at that apartment, but one thing he already knew is that Sebastian Michealis's life was going to be his for the taking.
