Here is the final chapter of this cracky fic, so I hope you enjoy sneaky Hannibal and awkward Will :D

Disclaimer: I don't own anything (unfortunately)

While Will didn't think he was ever going to reach the intimacy and gumption required to replicate Hannibal's… forward greeting, he did have one thing he could do. It wasn't until Hannibal arrived suddenly at a crime scene that he was able to do it though.

He heard Jack's gruff greeting and the science team's much more chipper and lively greeting before walking over to Hannibal. It was a sudden decision in all honesty. He'd really put a lot of thought into whether he could do what Hannibal did, but decided it might mean more if he exposed Hannibal to one of his own customs that he'd grown up with.

"Hannibal," he called out, getting the man's attention. Hannibal smiled at him and made his way over. Will watched the man debate on whether to do their now customary greeting before Will just rolled his eyes and grabbed Hannibal's hand and placed it on his backside.

He heard one of the science team gasp and distinctly hear Beverly wolf whistle, but he ignored them. After Hannibal had given his greeting it was Will's turn to give Hannibal his own greeting. Slowly, with a bit of hesitation, Will allowed his arms to wrap around the other man's body and give him a tight small squeeze.

It wasn't a true southern hug, but he doubted Hannibal wanted to feel like he was being crushed so he thought it would suffice. Hannibal didn't seem to mind, but he had gone worryingly still after receiving the hug. Will slowly pulled away to look into Hannibal's eyes. The man's eyes were stony and yet oddly warm; it'd figure that Hannibal would continue to be a contradiction even with his eyes.

"It isn't a Lithuanian greeting, but that's how you greet people in the south, well that and…" Will hesitated before leaning in and placing a chaste kiss on Hannibal's cheek, "that."

Hannibal didn't react for several moments and Will became acutely aware of Jack and the science team staring at them, Jack more annoyed than anything else. Will caught Brian and Jimmy exchanging bills to Beverly which caused Will's face to flush. Had they been betting on Hannibal and him? Did they think they were together?

Will's attention was pulled back to Hannibal when the man made a small knowing hum. "Well, then I suppose I can introduce you to another greeting," Hannibal said softly. And with that said, Hannibal descended on Will like feast and placed a firm kiss on his lips.

It didn't last long, but Will felt his heartbeat spike and his breath hitch. When Hannibal released his lips, Will felt his flush spread down his chest and allowed himself to nervously lick his lips. "What sort of greeting was that?" Will asked, his voice barely a whisper.

Hannibal smiled at him and gave him a pleased look. "A greeting a bit more significant than a simply greeting between close friends I would think."

Will couldn't deny that and he doubted Jack was going to let them discuss the topic further. He simply gave Hannibal another smile before turning around to go back to his job. If he was being honest with himself, this was probably the best relationship Will was ever going to get and he wasn't going to waste it.

Thank you all for reading! I hope you all enjoyed it and got a nice laugh out of it if nothing else
