The two sat at the table, enjoying the others company. Grell would notice William looking up at him every so often, and he couldn't help but blush a little. Finally he confronted the darker haired man, almost to flustered to speak.

"W-Will...what are you looking at?" Grell's voice caused William to be drawn back into reality, and quickly his face turned a shade of red Grell would be proud off.

"S-Sorry...it's nothing. I promise."

"Oh okay...well...um..." Grell looked away from William, trying to come up with a topic to discuss, the conversations suddenly awkward.

'Damn...' William thought. 'What did I do?'

"Um Grell?" William looked to the other, hoping Grell would turn back to him. At the sound of his name, Grell turned slightly.

"Yes Will?"

"Did you want help cleaning this up?" Grell frowned slightly, he had hoped this would end with the two cuddling and forgetting the world. A girlish thought, but he was proud of it. "Grell?" Quickly snapping out off his day dream, Grell stuttered.

"Y-Yes...please." He stood, walking to take the plate from William. William quickly grabbed his own plate and dishes, taking them into the kitchen. Grell followed Williams movements, now they were cramped into the small kitchen.

"Are you washing?" Williams voice was strong, and Grell swore he could listen to it forever. The man asked nodded, and filled the sink with bubbly water. William had found a rag, and used it to dry as Grell washed. Grell purposely didn't hand William the dishes, causing him to have to reach around him, slightly brushing against him every time. He could feel goose bumps run all over his body.

"Will, this is taking way to long."

"Grell, we are almost done." Finally, the blood obsessed man couldn't take it anymore, he turned to William.

"You know why I really invited you right?"

"What do you mean?" William wasn't stupid, he knew why he was invited, but he wanted to see what Grell would do.

"Are you that dense?" Grell crossed his arms and turned to walk out. William quickly grabbed his shoulder and turned him.

"No, but I want you to say it."

"W-William!" Grell was overwhelmed by embarrassment, and surprise.

"Say it."

"You already know why do I have to say it? Don't be so mean to me!" Grell's face now flushed to a shade lighter than his hair.

"Please Grell...say it." William leaned down to whisper in Grell's ear. "You aren't the only one who feels that way." Grell wrapped his arms around Williams neck pulling him into a hug.

"Oh William..." Grell whispered, and kissed the taller mans cheek. "I invited you because I love you." William quickly embraced Grell.

"Grell...I think I'm in love with you."

-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~ Time Skip -~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~ The next day...

"Will.~" Grell walked into Williams office, expecting to find the other man there. To Grell's unhappiness, William was not there. He pondered with himself if he should stay and wait. After a while he decided he would stay, he walked over to his desk, and sat in the chair. "Why isn't my chair this nice?"

"I had to pay for it myself." Grell looked up to find William standing in the doorway. "Sutcliff, why are you in my office?"

"Orders came in, HQ noticed our work from yesterday and said we work together more often while giving me a list of new names. You should have them." Grell hid the fact he was upset William wasn't more happy to see him, but he knows how William takes his job, and it's not like they are together. William opened his notebook to see the list Grell was talking about.

"This list will take all day, we best be going." William turned to walk out, not waiting for the other Shinigami to follow. Grell stumbled from the chair and ran to catch up with William.

"When did you start walking so fast?" Grell wined, as William huffed.

"When I go a list of names. I don't want to work over time again." This time it was Grell's turn to huff. "You should take your job more seriously."

"Will! I do take my job seriously. I just like to have a little fun.~" Grell couldn't help but emphasize the word "fun." William rolled his eyes as they walked out of HQ.

"The point of work is to not have fun, but to work."

"Oh Will, always so serious. Let lose a little.~" William pushed Grell into an alley close to where they had made it, which wasn't that far from the front doors. "William, what on earth are you doing?"

"The first persons name is this way, and you need a lesson."

"A lesson?" Grell was intrigued. He wanted to know what William would do. Slowly the taller man leaned down, acting as if he was going to kiss the childish man. Of course, he moved so slowly, so painfully slow, Grell wrapped his arms around Williams neck, pulling him closer. Their lips inched closer, Grell could feel Williams minty breath, sending waves of shiver down his body. William pulled away, and whispered.

"Not yet...maybe if you take this seriously..." William stood straight, and brushed the imaginary dust off of him. "Let's go Sutcliff, we have a job to do."

"Will! You're so mean, don't do that to me!" Grell heard William laugh a little, and wondered what even made him fall in love with the other. Maybe it was to early to call it love, but they've known each other for years, and William did say...wait...Grell re-played what William had said last night. Oh...he only said maybe. As William got ahead of Grell, Grell whispered. "William...I will find a way to make you love me like I love you...that's a promise." With that Grell ran to catch up with William again, wrapping his arm around the other mans when he finally made it. The two went off to finish their work of the day, Grell with his plan, and William not wanting to work more then needed. They make a great team, don't they?
