Chapter Nine
Shinigami Dealings and Grell's Idea

Later that evening, Ciel and Sebastian were seated at dinner with Lizzie and her family, along with Grell and Will and a few other families and couples whom they had not yet met. Grell sat across from Ciel and Will was next to him across from Sebastian. Josephine was next to Ciel to her right and her mother was to her left.
“And so I had thoughtlessly broken the beautiful ring but Ciel dried my tears and danced with me anyway while Sebastian played music for us. Tell me, Sebastian, do you still play the violin? Have you taught young Louis?” Elizabeth was still the talkative type.
“What happened to the ring mommy?” Elizabeth's youngest asked sweetly.
“It was the strangest thing really. Not long after that I saw Ciel for his birthday and the ring had been fixed good as new. Sebastian must have known the best jeweler in all of London, probably all of England for that matter.”
Ciel was having a hard time not coming out about his identity what with all of these stories, but he played his part flawlessly nonetheless. He held his hand up to the light, leaning closer to show Lizzie the ring he now wore where Sebastian had fitted it. “To think this old thing was put through so much...My family received it with a few of the late Earl's precious things after his death. It truly is remarkable...And I hear the rest of the diamond is aboard the ship as well.”
No need to mention that Sebastian had gotten the ring for him through dubious means, he was sure Elizabeth knew it was never found with Ciel's remains and so it was believable he could have hidden it in the house coincidentally before the fires. Ciel also tried his best to ignore the shinigami staring at him from across the table. If only everyone here knew they were dining with death.
Grell was once again acting the lady, daintily eating his meal and not speaking or looking up very much so that Will wouldn't think he was interested in checking out Sebastian. After this afternoon he was sure Sebastian was close to throttling him anyway, and the only thing stopping him was likely the fact it would cause a commotion.
Will placed a hand on Grell's knee to comfort his lover discreetly under the table. He could tell Grell was nervous and all he wanted was for his lover to be himself again. He did catch Sebastian looking at him several times and finally understood the demon wanted to speak with him for some reason. Whatever it was it could not be discussed here at the table. Though William was not too keen on the idea, he figured he could make certain his thoughts on the creature's intentions for his lover were accurate at the very least.
Ciel could feel himself tense, a chill passing through his body as Yuki took a seat not very far away beside her seemingly good friend Molly. What was she doing here if she couldn't eat? He didn't want to deal with her, though he did notice Jo had followed his line of sight. Let her stare, he was more interested in Lizzie. “It Only seems to fit this finger...So I intend to give it to my fiancee when I choose to marry. Despite its tragic past it has never brought anything but luck to me in particular.”
Elizabeth smiled warmly at Louis as she did her own children. There was a hint of pain in her eyes as she looked upon him, but something else...Protection.
Josephine for her part could not seem to take her eyes off the beautiful Asian woman seated with Molly Brown. She leaned over to Ciel since it had been his gaze that led hers. “Do you know who she is? She's beautiful.”
Ciel grimaced. Jo was attracted to women, he should have expected something like this, but he was still annoyed it was this woman in particular. He already felt protective of Jo…and he was still unsure how Yuki went about finding human flesh to eat while on board. “I know her name is Yuki...I've spoken to her briefly, but I don't think I would advise talking to her, she is...Crude...For a lady.”
“Oh.” Josephine tried to hide her disappointment and silently ate her food.

Soon dessert was brought to the table. A fabulous creme brulee trio in vanilla, chocolate, and almond served with vanilla ice cream. Sebastian smiled as Ciel's face brightened slightly at the sight of the treat. He had almost forgotten who else was at the table.
William however, studied every movement of the demon. He was thankful Sebastian seemed hypnotized by Ciel. He had enjoyed the stories about the boy from years before as well. If Will didn't know any better he'd say he almost felt sorry for Ciel and all he had been through.
Grell fidgeted in his seat, upset that he couldn't talk, but knowing that Lady Elizabeth might still recognize his voice somehow, and the shinigami were much less prone to conspicuous coincidental meetings than Ciel and Sebastian. He did make sure to find Will's hand under the table and give it a loving squeeze before beginning his dessert.
Ciel had already happily commenced by then, even ordering a second dessert after having hardly touched his other food. He noticed Sebastian's characteristically hungry smirk and frowned comically. “Sebastian, you know I do love sweets...” He heard Lizzie giggle quietly, and that warmed his heart. If only he had tried a little harder to make her happy when he was still himself.
“I think that's a family trait, Louis. Ciel was always eating the most delicious sweets too! Oh when we have all returned to London I do hope Sebastian will entertain the thought of making some of his personal recipes for us. He's amazing. But I'm sure you already knew that, Louis.”
“Hm, yes, you should all return to the Manor with us for a spell. I doubt Sebastian would mind making his specialty for all of us. He really is quite skilled in everything he does.” ‘Louis’ smiled charmingly, just to be the opposite of Ciel for a moment.
Grell nearly dropped his fork again when he saw it, having never seen that look on the Phantomhive child before. Grell couldn't control himself anymore, he wanted to prove to Will he wasn't in love with the demon, and maybe prove it to himself in the meantime. “Well then, Sebastian, if you are so skilled~ It would seem you should have had no problem finding employment elsewhere after the fires.”
Ciel had to restrain himself from throwing something.
“There have been awful rumors about you and...Ciel was it? I would hope they aren't true...”
“Madam I rarely pay attention to idle gossip. After my young master's death I was terribly grief stricken. It was in my good fortune that I found employment with his family so that I could remain among his things.” Sebastian's face remained the picture of poise, but he did shoot Grell a fearsome look when no one was looking. The look conveyed that Sebastian was in fact recalling what murderous intent felt like. Hopefully it would be enough to shut the idiot redhead up for the remainder of dinner. He needed to be able to speak to William regarding Ciel's situation and if he upset Will's apparent lover his chance would disappear.
Grell merely smiled daintily and continued his meal. “Good to know! It is so very revolting when grown men do such things to boys...Wouldn't you agree William darling?”
Ciel couldn't believe Grell was saying such things at dinner. It was obviously making Jo’s father uncomfortable. The fact it was true was even worse. Who was he to pass any sort of judgment on their love? “Your information must be faulty. I've never heard such things about Sebastian before, and my family has many eyes and ears in London.”
“Darling, I understand the need for interesting topics among company.” William squeezed Grell's hand under the table somewhat painfully. “But there are things that are best kept away from a dinner table. Besides, I believe that Mr. Michaelis had something he wanted to discuss with me after dinner.” Will's voice was chilled and almost scary as he locked eyes with Sebastian while still squeezing Grell's hand. “It should be a most interesting discussion.”
Sebastian smiled knowing his point had been made with facial expressions alone. “Indeed, Mr. Spears, I have business of a somewhat personal nature to discuss with you. I think you will find what I have to say quite interesting.” Sebastian made sure to emphasize the interesting part for no reason other than to watch Grell squirm after what had transpired earlier. Surly even if the redhead had confessed part of what had gone on, there was no way he'd have told his lover how he had pushed for more.
Now Grell was caught between his burning desire to shut the demon up in a gruesome manner and the social conventions of being a lady and listening to one's husband. Being so angry his teeth had changed against his will and he was now forced to keep his mouth shut in any case.
Ciel was pleased with the developments. Even Will had shut Grell down and everything was right again. He turned back to Lizzie and her family, ignoring the shinigami dramatics.
“Can you believe such nasty rumors? Sebastian has proven himself to be no less than a butler without reprove.” Ciel had returned to eating, this time a specialty fudge he'd ordered. “I believe I made a promise to visit the gymnasium with your husband Lady Elizabeth, perhaps he can show me the facilities in the morning?”
“Certainly, Louis.” Frederick seemed eager to get started, and had also recovered from the affront of Grell’s gossip.

Dinner ended not too long after that and William was the first to his feet. “When should I expect to see you, Mr. Michaelis? I can accommodate you both in the sitting room of our staterooms for an hour or so.”
Sebastian grinned. “That would probably be best. Bo-chan, shall we be taking a moment for you to rest before discussing our business with Mr. Spears, or are you ready now that dinner has ended?”
“I am ready to go now, I'm not tired.” Ciel was curious as to what Sebastian wanted to discuss with William. He hoped it had nothing to do with Grell, who was already giving death glares across the table as he fanned himself. The sight of that one in a dress made Ciel nearly physically sick, but he had to admit the shinigami did in fact look very much like a woman. Before following Sebastian and Will he turned to say Goodbye to Lizzie and Jo, noticing with a groan that Jo was staring longingly at Yuki again. “Then I'll see you ladies tomorrow, and you in the morning, Sir. Have a good evening.”
William nodded his goodbyes and took Grell by the arm as a proper gentleman should as he led the way to their staterooms. He was silent the entire way and merely gestured to some chairs in the sitting room. Sebastian understood and guided Ciel to a chair and sat beside him. William sat on the couch and looked at Grell expectantly. Once Grell had taken the hint William started the meeting. “I expect this to be quite good for you to disturb me while I am technically on duty, demon.”
Sebastian smiled an evil grin. “Oh it is. You see, I am trying to find a way to improve some things that happened when your people erred in bringing Ciel back for me. He seems to have some information wired into his mind that would be of interest to you. While you do not enjoy working with me, you realize I cannot lie and therefore what I say is true.”
William leaned forward somewhat more interested now. “You have my attention, Sebastian.”
Ciel sat quietly, feeling Sebastian was more than capable of making his wishes and concerns know, as always. These rooms were different but no less lavish, yet he noticed a pair of woman's underwear left on a doorknob to one of the rooms, and the thought of Grell wearing them irked him. Yet at the same time he wondered if Sebastian would like him to wear such things, he had liked the ball gown rather well...
Sebastian reached for Ciel's hand and held it as he spoke now. “Ciel seems not to be in control of all of his thoughts. Someone is influencing him. This, of course, must stop. There is also the question of aging. He has expressed concern and an interest in ensuring this body will age to one of about eighteen or so. I am not aware if that is going to occur but I'm certain you can tell us. There is also the matter of him being able at times to read thoughts. Mine in particular. I have nothing to hide from him, but it would be good if he learned to control this new skill.”
William's eyebrow twitched in mild irritation. So far all the demon was doing was criticizing the work Undertaker had ordered for the demon. “I must say I do not appreciate being told that my people do not know how to do their jobs. Why should any of this concern me?”
Sebastian chuckled a little. “It would seem that Ciel knows something of shinigami affairs now. Or how else would I know that Grell is merely a second class shinigami who should have had no access to the information I received all those years ago that led me to Undertaker for assistance, therefore making my debt a falsehood he perpetuated?”
Grell flared in anger when Sebastian revealed what was far from considered public knowledge even among the shinigami. “That little cunt!” Grell stood up, raging. “How could he know something like that!? How could you reveal that in front of my boss!? I thought we had a fair friendship at the very least! God damned revenant brat!”
“I'll ask you to refrain from insulting my lover. He does not know where the information came from. Only that Undertaker said a condition for bringing him back to the physical world would involve him to work with the shinigami from time-to-time. He shared this information with me when I spoke of a deal I struck with you several years ago. I must say to be fooled like that does not please me in the slightest. However, I am sure that William does not want this sort of information scattered about. It would be in his best interest to help us as much as possible.” Sebastian squeezed Ciel's hand. It was too early to say he'd won, but it certainly looked like things would end at least slightly in their favor.
William stood and motioned for Grell to be seated. He paced the room with a hand to his chin. The Phantomhive child should never have known such a thing. Among shinigami classes were kept secret to prevent social discrimination. It was in fact dangerous information if Ciel knew how to use it. “You are aware of the severity of the situation. We do not tend to reveal shinigami classes to one another. That was some of Grell's most personal information.”
“I can tell you his birth year...Where he came from...I can tell him where you came from...First class William Thomas Spears,” Ciel finally spoke up, reinforcing the fact that he knew things he didn't care to, but that could indeed be damaging or useful to the shinigami depending on who's hands the knowledge fell into. “I was never aware you had a brother, you have the air of an only child to me...” Ciel watched as William seemed shocked, then apprehensive.
Grell was still steaming mad, but he had taken a seat when William asked. As livid as he was he had to admit it would be for the greater good if the child was silenced and this thorn of a situation removed from Will's side for good.
William stiffened at the demonstration of Ciel's information. The demands were tricky. A literal mountain of paperwork would be needed to even begin the application process for the alterations. But if these few things could be set to the demon and the boy's liking perhaps they could be bought. “And you would remain silent except when aiding the shinigami if these needs were met. Specifically, to age to young adulthood and remain as such as long as the body functions, to have more of a say in your free-will actions, and to learn more about how to control your telepathy?”
Sebastian looked to Ciel. He knew there was one more thing Ciel was unsure about, but he might be a bit embarrassed to mention his overly active sex-drive to William in front of Grell. “Bo-chan, was there anything else you wished me to request? Perhaps privately? Or if the rest is set right do you feel it would become unnecessary?”
“Sebastian, you forget I'm practically public property now.” Ciel smirked unpleasantly. “There is one more thing. They seem to have altered my hormone levels and free will with a very specific goal in mind, that being to make my into a living sex doll for Sebastian, something he swears he never requested.” Ciel gave his butler a look that said he was unsure about it, but forced to believe the demon considering it was against his principles to lie. “I would not so much mind the hormones if I could control my own ways of dealing with them.”
“I would have to agree. I want him to love me only as he would. I will not say it has not been enjoyable, but I did not want him back for something so trivial as sex alone.” Sebastian admitted.
William smirked a bit at the confession Ciel made. He could just picture the two of them and the whole idea made him want to laugh. A demon falling in love with a human who was his food. Now the demon was complaining that his lover was too compliant?
“I will start writing up the forms for the changes once we have concluded our business here and all the paperwork from Titanic filed properly. It will take time, mind you. We can however commit to some tests being run on the body that will analyze how it will age and that should also give us an idea what to do about the hormone levels. Until then I would suggest that you enjoy yourselves. I will speak with Undertaker regarding this as well. I would ask that you be so kind as to not disclose the information you mentioned. I might not be so eager to help you if you share it with the wrong people or cause an upset among my staff.” William adjusted his glasses and once more handed his business card to Sebastian figuring the demon probably had not kept it before. “We will need to stay in touch, so I would ask that you return to the Phantomhive manor as soon as your New York excursions are finished. I hope I have made myself perfectly clear on that. You two will use the shinigami portal to leave the ship. Your names will appear on the survivor list, but this way you will not interfere with the others who are to be saved. You will be allowed out to New York where you may do as you please for one week. Then I will expect to hear from you and I will personally guide you back. Only three shinigami know of these problems, and we are going to keep it that way.”
Ciel nodded in approval. “That seems satisfactory, but do you have any idea what they will do with me...I know this isn't the easiest case without a soul and all...”
Grell crossed his arms and laughed. “They'll probably turn you into an incubus at this rate.” When everyone turned to stare at him he seemed surprised they'd paid attention. “Undertaker may have mentioned something like that a long time ago. When I was a new shinigami and I wondered what other mythical beings existed...They're halfway between us and full demons, rather sexual, and they can change form at will and practice telepathy. It seems perfect for the little twat.”
Ciel disliked Grell with a passion, but he childishly jumped onto the idea. It sounded much better than being a flesh-eating zombie at least. “There must be a catch, that sounds like a perfect solution!”
Grell smirked, letting his teeth show. “Well it requires a soul...And I hear they do need sex energy to survive or something...And I don't know if there's any way to actual create them...”
Sebastian tightened his grip on Ciel's hand. He loathed the way the redhead was looking at his lover, but he loathed even more that his idea held promise. “I have known a few of those in my day. They are not altogether unpleasant. However...Unlike the way I eat, bo-chan, it is exactly as Grell says. You feed on sexual energy. You would be able to feed on me at your leisure of course, but there may come a day when I am not enough. Many succubi and inccubi grow unstable in their appetite. You would need to practice great discipline, as I do. From the sound of things, that was what Undertaker may have intended Yuki to do in the first place. If this is so then my theory of him making mistakes is not altogether incorrect. You are not an incubus yet. Though you do bare many of the traits.”
William's face flashed as though he realized something and he adjusted his glasses once more. “This will all be discussed after our business is conducted. If you do not mind, Grell and I would like to retire for the evening.”
Sebastian nodded and smiled at Will before getting up and offering his hand to Ciel to help him stand as well.
Ciel took Sebastian's hand, standing but not going to the door. Instead he stared pointedly at the pair of woman's underclothes on the doorknob as he said goodbye, watching with interest as William turned pink. “Thank you for everything William Spears, Grell Slutcliffe.” He acted as if he hadn't noticed the mispronunciation as he turned to leave. Just because the red shinigami had given them a lead he wasn't about to excuse the fact he'd come on to his lover this afternoon.
Sebastian guided Ciel out of the staterooms. Once they were out of sight William closed and locked the door. He then turned to face Grell. “My dear, I do believe a mistake was made, but it was not on Undertaker's part. Yuki malfunctioned most likely. Her body is due for repair. Why she would put that information in the boy I can't fathom...Unless she was trying to cause us distress. Ciel doesn't need all that to help us on occasion. Would you not agree, my love?”
Grell still felt uneasy around the technical department in general. They were far creepier than any of the shinigami, most likely because they were closer kin to angels, and those were a sordid batch “Yuki...I don't think I know her...And I doubt I want to...” He looked to William, his eyes full of a worry that he wouldn't, couldn't convey. William had seen Grell’s human form earlier, but he’d never known Will was first class. What did he really think of Grell? That he was just a formerly human immortal reject? “Ciel did know a lot. It could be dangerous...Maybe...I wouldn’t entirely mind killing him”
“It is most assuredly a dangerous situation. As much as I hate to say it, only the three of us should be assigned to this case since the information is so tender. It could cause serious issues in some of our fellow shinigami. As you well know we are not supposed to talk about class.” William finally noticed Grell seemed to be on edge for some reason. He came to his lover and clasped his hands. “What is bothering you, darling? I doubt they'll tell the others. They want the help too badly to risk angering us.”
“That isn't it,” Grell sighed. It was always a challenge for him to open up when true feelings were concerned. It was always difficult to talk about the serious issues. “I mean I'm sorry you had to find out about my class. When I came to you this afternoon…I never knew what you were so…I mean I suppose it isn’t really something you discuss right away…” Grell felt himself shift into his other form unconsciously, his human form. Now that the cat was really out of the bag he might as well. “I was human long ago...And those nights I worked as a "lady of the evening" were in this body. It meant a lot to me that you thought both were beautiful...”
“Is that what you're upset about?” William smiled at Grell's innocent emotions. He walked to him and pulled his lover close. “I do find both your forms beautiful. It doesn't matter to me that you were not born a shinigami like I was. What matters is you are here now.” William leaned in and claimed Grell's lips in a kiss. “You really have nothing to fear, Grell. I don't plan on going anywhere. This doesn’t change a thing.”
“I'm a deranged murderer you know...You really don't see what a dance with the devil you're getting yourself into Mr. First Class T. Spears...” Grell kissed him passionately, trying to convey all he could never find the words to say. He changed during the kiss, wondering if Will would like the strange sensation of suddenly kissing another person. As usual he seemed quite pleased, how could one man be so perfect?
“Grell, while I was not pleased with the mountain of paperwork you accumulated for me during the Jack the Ripper disaster, I remember it clearly. I'm still here aren't I?” William kissed Grell more deeply this time lowering his hands from his lover's back so he could cup Grell's ass firmly in his hands.
Grell moaned into the kiss, loving those dominating hands on his ass and pulling him close. Will always knew just how to shut him up. “William, you are the perfect lover...You're making my blush like a silly girl...You do so much to accommodate my interests. What can I ever do for you in return?”
William thought for a moment. Grell had only begun to let him into his heart. He knew that much. For someone so outgoing on so many fronts, Grell was a very shy and private person that most never got to see. Will had seen glimpses of that person. He wanted to know more. To know his lover better than anyone.
“Let me in, Grell. Let me keep learning more about who you are when no one else is around. All I want in return is your love and trust, Grell. I've told you, I only treat you as I feel you deserve. Believe you're worth it and love me.” William kissed Grell again more passionately than before. He still held Grell's ass firmly in his left hand but moved his right to run his fingers through the long locks of red hair, tugging slightly.
“I do love you,” Grell mumbled through kisses. When Will treated him this way it made his so tongue-tied, nervous he would ruin the moments of bliss he was always expecting to end with a harsh reprimand. He was becoming more used to Will's softer side, but it would be a while still before he forgot the other man could be extremely domineering and vengeful, one of the downsides of dating one's boss he supposed. And yet Will seemed to genuinely not care about his class or his past when it came to loving him, and that was an amazing feeling. “Give me a week, I'll be used to it by then..!” Grell grinned, shifting his eyes to look sideways at the panties he'd “accidentally” on purpose left on the knob. “That kid was definitely looking, hm?”
“He's probably never seen a lady's underclothes. We never did get his cinematic records after all since his soul was consumed by the demon. Let's try to forget about them a while.” William gazed into his lover's eyes for a moment before kissing Grell again with anticipation. Pulling at Grell's hair he forced his lover to move closer and press his body against his chest.
Grell allowed himself to be manipulated by his hair, giving in to the stronger man easily. “Mm...Will I love it when you're forceful with me! I never knew you were secretly such a kinky man~” He smirked, kissing Will and nipping lips, tugging at them with his teeth before attacking that beautiful mouth with more hot kisses. “You can make me forget anything you want~”
William lifted Grell and carried him bridal style to the bed they shared then lowered him gently, kissing his lips and face. He lightly traced fingers up Grell's leg and thigh raising his skirt as he did so, the silk of the pantalettes rubbing soft against Grell's skin. William stopped only to remove his jacket, tie, vest, and shirt, revealing his chest to his lover before climbing on top of Grell and kissing his lips once more, this time demanding them to part so he could suck at the tip of Grell's tongue.
Grell was once again more than willing to comply, parting his lips and moaning softly as Will played with his tongue. He spread his legs as well to let Will in closer, wanting to be as close as possible, and wanting to convey to Will he was in power. Grell had always liked that about him, how quick he was to take charge, especially in bed as he'd lately learned. The redhead trailed his fingers along Will’s chest and back, loving the feel of his lean, sculpted body, muscular in an understated sort of way and definitely all man.
William pulled back and smiled at Grell sweetly and his glasses slipped down off his nose caught by their chain. Grell nearly gasped, partly because he was sure the glasses would hit him in the face, but partly because Will was so much more attractive without them. Grell had always thought he himself looked better with them on, but they were really hiding Will's beautiful features. “I love how responsive you are, my dear. It’s nice to know when one is doing a good job of something. And this is something I'm glad you enjoy.” William traced his fingers across Grell's lips and slid one into his mouth. He knew Grell would take the hint and suck his fingers, tracing those outrageous teeth across them as he did so.
Grell allowed Will's fingers past his lips, at first sucking them hard to tempt his lover, then teasing them with his tongue and moving his head back and forth as he got them nice and slick for what he assumed Will wanted to do with them. At once point he even let them both slide down his throat a bit, closing his sharp teeth lightly around them to keep them in place a bit before letting Will remove them. He loved the way it made his lover squirm in anticipation.
William used the hand free of his lover's amazing mouth to remove the pantalettes and stockings his lover wore. He slid the skirt of Grell's dress up even more revealing exposed legs and pulled his fingers from Grell's eager lips. He lifted Grell's left leg and positioned his body to support his lover as he pressed first one then two fingers into Grell's waiting ass. He studied every tiny expression Grell made as he scissored his fingers inside, making Grell whimper and moan. He knew what he had to do. His lover was finally opening up to him and he wanted to drill into his head that the redhead was worth all that he did. “You're the most beautiful person I've ever seen.”
“Mmm...Well y-yes...Ah!” Grell was making the most interesting faces, left with nothing to do but enjoy the feeling of Will's fingers exploring his inner depths. He was also making rather cute sounds to accompany them. “A true lady must be beautiful at a-all times...” Grell could feel himself responding to Will's touch, knowing that the way his skirts were raised his lover could see it all, but for once he didn't mind. He took the chance and believed what Will was saying to him, not trying to cover it up for a change.
Will smiled brightly as Grell seemed to finally believe his words. He continued to hit Grell's pleasure spot as he slid a third finger inside and leaned down to kiss the lips that the sweet moans were escaping from. He took his free hand and removed his belt and everything else below his waist never letting his fingers stop pleasing his lover. He wanted to feel Grell's lips wrapped around his own cock, but Grell was too amazing to watch right now. So instead, William took his free hand and began to stroke himself while never taking his eyes off Grell.
Grell arched his back, parting his lips slightly and closing his eyes. His head was tilted back. Soft moans and breathy gasps of sudden pleasure escaped his lips as his hips found their own rhythm, moving with Will's fingers, making the muscles of his stomach ripple like a belly dancer. Yet he wasn't completely unaware of his lover's pleasure, reaching over to replace Will's hand with his own, tenderly stroking his lover, though squeezing occasionally tighter when his own pleasure increased.
William gladly allowed Grell to take over and threw his head back before casting his glasses aside. They had only been dangling by the chain after all. What use did they have now? Grell's skilled hand moved in time with his thrusts and William decided to quicken the pace to see just how much his lover could take before begging for more than a few fingers to fill his ass. Grell was HIS lover now and the sound of him begging for raw sex was more erotic than nearly anything Will could think of. He pummeled Grell's prostate with his fingers, reveling in each squirm, smile, moan, and whimper his lover gave him. “Oh Grell...Nnnn.”
“Oh god William...Oh GOD!” Grell was breathing heavily, panting out loud and squirming hard. His strokes had become more erratic and frantic on Will's cock, the lack of a steady rhythm probably driving him mad. Grell tightened his ass, wanting Will to want him just as badly. “Oh fuck me...I want you to fuck me so hard~...Nnn Will~”
“It would be terribly rude to deny a lady what she wants so very much.” Will removed his fingers and reached to the night table where he had stowed some hand lotion earlier. He rubbed a small bit over his cock and lifted Grell's legs not bothering to remove the dress. William entered his lover in a single hard thrust. He gave Grell a moment or two to adjust and began slamming into him fast and hard. Grell seemed to prefer it that way after all. Besides it felt amazing. For one so eager and willing where sex was concerned, Grell's ass always remained amazingly tight. William knew he was moaning and even grunting out Grell's name. It just felt too good not to.
Grell himself was grunting and moaning breathlessly with every thrust, the extra lubrication of the hand lotion allowing William deeper than ever before, or at least it felt that way. And he moved much faster. He was definitely using his heightened shinigami strength to completely pummel Grell's ass, which he skillfully tightened around his lover, wanting to give him a first class cock massage with his muscles. “Oh my~ Mm Will...Mm y-you're so big...I want you~”
“You have me, Grell. Now take it all.” William felt the sweat beading on his body as he continued to fuck his lover's ass. Grell could make him feel amazing and as much as he wanted this to last, Sunday was the last day of leisure before the overtime would begin. He was not going to try and make this an all night event with Grell. Though the thought was very tempting. Instead he allowed himself to approach the edge of his release, waiting for Grell to indicate his own readiness. To hasten the process Will took his moisturized hand to Grell's cock and stroked in time with his maddening thrusts.
Will's hand felt amazing in the best way. Grell couldn't remember ever having used to lube on his own cock, but now he couldn't understand how he'd ever done without it. If this was a fraction of how good Will was feeling inside him then he had fully made up for the way Will's loving words made him feel. He screamed as Will thrust in a new angle, hitting his already much abused prostate head-on, so sensitive it sent him over the edge almost immediately. “YES WILLIAM! Oh yes...God yes! AhHhHh~! I-I'm!” He couldn't control himself, the intensity of the orgasm making his body clench Will inside him, his nails clawed his lover's shoulders and neck, his back arched into Will almost painfully as he came explosively, covering Will's chest and even hitting his cheek somehow.
William had little time to react as Grell's ass clenched tighter around his cock causing him to call out Grell's name as he came. He hunched over his lover and kissed him, not bothering to wipe his face first. He then took his fingers and wiped his face off but sucked all of it off his fingers making sure to moan as he tasted Grell. Out of breath and panting he was able to whisper but no more. “So you finally believe that you're beautiful?” William smiled as Grell actually blushed and then kissed him softly on the lips. “I love you.”
Grell was always so thankful for his lover's consideration, not making him taste himself, always being careful to kiss softly afterward. Grell still had no intention of ever tasting his own fluid, but had to admit it was extremely pleasing to watch Will suck it from his fingers. He blushed and giggled slightly as Will kissed him. “Yes, yes...I...I'm beautiful...I love you, William.” He leaned in, touching his nose to Will's for an Eskimo kiss as he wiped some more of his fluid from Will's chest and held up his fingers to watch as Will devoured him again. Something about that sight was so arousing...The perfect post-play.
William ran his tongue along Grell's fingers to show him that he too was skilled with it and sucked them clean before kissing his lover again. He sat up and smiled. “Shall I help you undress for bed, dearest? We have one last day to enjoy ourselves before the hard work begins.”
Grell nodded, glad to finally be rid of the binding clothes and feel his body against his lover’s. He relaxed as William lovingly undressed him. Nobody could ever ask for more.

Ciel was feeling more joyful than he had been in a while. This new development was still a bit awkward to deal with, but much more appealing than the previous plan. From what Sebastian had said on the way back to the room he was much more interested in pursuing this than the previous as well. But that wasn't what Ciel had on his mind at the moment. No, his altered brain could never stray very far from the bedroom, and he'd already used up what little allotment there was left for business. “Sebastian...What do you prefer for boys to wear? What do you find most appealing sexually?”
“What an odd question, bo-chan.” Sebastian began drawing Ciel his evening bath, making sure to roll up his sleeve so he could test the water with his elbow before he began adding bath salts and scented oils into the mix. White rose petals garnished the water as well since he knew Ciel was fond of them. He started to undress Ciel as he did many nights. This was a time when Sebastian tried hard to not become aroused. As Ciel's butler he had done this countless times and there had been no intention behind it on his part...Mostly. “I enjoy someone who is clean and well taken care of, someone who takes pride in his appearance. These both apply to you as you know.” When the water had filled the tub sufficiently Sebastian held out his hand to help Ciel into it.
Ciel accepted as he usually did, though tonight he felt...Different somehow than usual, as if he should be more embarrassed by this process. It was a strange idea considering Sebastian had seen all of him and was his lover on top of that. “Because you keep me that way, Sebastian…And you dress me as well...I mean something out of the ordinary, like a fetish perhaps...Or something you think I would look particularly arousing wearing. Anything of that sort?” He lay back in the tub and smiled to himself, enjoying the soothing scent and the feel of Sebastian's skilled hands massaging his chest as they washed him.
Sebastian lathered up Ciel's chest after he had poured water over it. He rubbed and massaged his lover but paused for a moment and smiled a sadistic grin. “Bo-chan, you have always demanded the very best. I only do as you wish. Therefore, it is a reflection of who you are that I find arousing.” Sebastian seemed to be concentrating on one small spot on Ciel's chest running rings with his fingertips over the area. “I will admit you look quite lovely covered in blood, but I don't think that is what you meant. There is something you have in mind already, is there not? Why not either surprise me, bouchan, or ask me outright?”
“Hm...Then I should surprise you...I hope you will like it...I think I might find it arousing if someone were to do it for me...” Ciel began to notice something was in fact different with his bath this time. Sebastian was touching his chest far too long in that one spot. With a cute petulant frown Ciel moved to brush his lover's hands away. Bath time was not sexual. “What are you doing?”
“Checking on a most interesting turn of events, bo-chan. It seems you already have one of the things you desire. You are growing up.” Sebastian poured water over Ciel's body and fetched a small mirror. Positioning the mirror so Ciel could see, Sebastian directed his eyes to the small cluster of what appeared to be four or five chest hairs that had sprouted from nowhere. He then turned the mirror to show his own face to Ciel. He was genuinely pleased and looked quite lustful.
Ciel gasped, surprised to see he had indeed somehow grown into puberty without even knowing about it. Maybe that explained his voice changes as well, which he'd been having more and more frequently lately. He slowly reached up to touch his chest, unsure if they were real or if maybe they were hairs from his head Sebastian had positioned there. He tugged on one and it hurt, but he smiled, meeting Sebastian's lustful eyes with eyes innocent with excitement. “Really? I'm really growing up?” Never one to feel ashamed of his body in front of his butler he immediately felt under his arms, but there wasn't much more than a soft fuzz there, and for a change he didn't want to check any lower before Sebastian's prying eyes. He would do so later in private. “Sebastian this is amazing! I might not have to make any changes after all...You look very...Pleased...” He smirked, looking a bit more grown up and seductive than usual now that he knew it was happening and had gotten over the initial shock of it. He would have Sebastian dress him differently for his morning stroll, he wanted to show them off.
Sebastian licked his lips as he watched Ciel. It amazed him how his lover could have gone through so much and still find joy in the simplest of things. 'Humans are odd creatures. But they are fun to watch.' “I am pleased, bo-chan. To see something you wish for come into being makes me happy.” Sebastian wet Ciel's arms and began to wash them now. He continued to massage his lover as he washed the soft skin. Perhaps Ciel would be happy the way things were if they could only fix his free will. It still bothered Sebastian to no end that Yuki said Ciel had been programmed to love him. He wanted Ciel's love, but not at such a cost.
“You want to touch me don't you? I can see it in your eyes...You can if you like...I won't mind if just this one bath you have your way...” In truth Ciel was extremely excited about his newfound manhood, and he wanted Sebastian to find any new changes as only someone with his observance could. Besides, he could somehow sense in Sebastian's energy that the demon needed to touch him. He loved Ciel the most when he was innocent and childish and joyful, and perhaps letting him have that would be more arousing for him than the women's clothes.
“I am always happy to touch you, bouchan.” Sebastian rinsed his lover's arms and started washing Ciel's legs. He drew out the process allowing his claws to grow so he could tease Ciel's tender thighs. In this manner Sebastian washed all of Ciel and gave no warning save a soft kiss when he thrust two fingers inside Ciel and began stretching him from the inside. He watched his lover squirm in the water but refused to relent.
Ciel squeaked, and he could hardly believe he'd been so surprised, but the fit was tight in this position, and he hadn't been expecting that so soon. He wriggled, gripping the edges of the tub in an effort not to make more embarrassing noises. “Is this what you always…wish to do to me in the bath?” Even before he became aware of Sebastian's feelings he had sometimes felt Sebastian washed him down there more than necessary, and often smirked in his demonic way. Yet he'd never truly acted on his desires, even since Ciel's death.
“I cannot deny I have thought it would be fun, bouchan.” Sebastian used the water to his advantage and stretched Ciel in ways that would normally be more than a little painful. “To watch you in the water trembling by my hands...”
“O-oh!” Ciel felt his body squirming against his will. He'd never been stretched this way before, and he wondered for the first time if Sebastian was capable of altering his size as well as his form. In any case Sebastian was already driving him mad with just his two fingers. Ciel was painfully hard, laying back in the tub, gripping the edges for dear life with eyes pressed shut and lips tightly sealed to keep from calling out, his legs spread wide in a way that would have given Sebastian an excellent view if it weren't for the bubbles.
Sebastian merely smiled and used his free hand to slowly stroke Ciel's cock. He chuckled softly at his lover's seeming helplessness as he gave himself over completely to pleasure. Sebastian would have Ciel call his name and beg to be filled. And Sebastian knew exactly how to do so. He slid a third finger inside Ciel and pressed into him harder. “Tell me what you want most, bouchan.” Sebastian whispered into his ear before biting and sucking on the lobe.
It had been a while since Sebastian had asked him to describe what he wanted, but now Ciel was ready. He'd grown steadily bolder during their time together. “I want you inside me...T-thrusting hard with your full manhood...Fill me with your...E-essence...Or squirt it in my mouth...Ah...Sebastian!” Sebastian's fingers were filling him so completely he wondered if he would even feel his cock, but surely he would, the demon always made his presence known in that regard. With an adorable whimper he thrust into his lover's hand, wishing he would pick up the tortuously slow pace.
Sebastian smiled as he toyed moments longer with Ciel's ass. The pout and whimper Ciel let out did not go unnoticed when Sebastian's fingers slid out from within him. Sebastian's grin turned quite evil then as he paused in his reaching for the buttons on his vest. “Please, bouchan, continue where I left off while I undress.”
“I'd have to use my whole hand,” Ciel complained, but he did go on to slowly insert one finger, then three as he found Sebastian had loosened him quite well. With his other hand he stroked himself furiously, moaning passionately as he touched himself in just the way he liked it. He even added a fourth finger, Sebastian's being so much bigger than his own.
Sebastian took his time in removing his clothes. He was enjoying the enthusiastic show his lover was putting on for him. Once he had undressed he did not climb into the tub right away. Instead he opted to kneel behind Ciel and kiss and bite at his neck never taking his eyes off the actions of his lover's hands as he pleasured himself. “Bouchan, ask me again.” Sebastian bit the nape of Ciel's neck softly and traced kisses to his left side. “Tell me how much better I am than your fingers.”
“Ah...Aah...So much better...Nnh...I need you to thrust inside me...Please Sebastian...I can never touch myself as well as you touch me...” Ciel was hardly conscious of what he was saying, he was so wrapped up in the pleasure of knowing Sebastian was watching as he worked his own body, teasing him cruelly. “Please...I can't...Come without you inside...”
Sebastian smiled and circled the bathtub once before climbing in and spilling water over the top. He lifted Ciel's legs and used them to propel his lover onto his lap. Sebastian kissed Ciel then and still made no move to enter his lover. He did reach down and stroked Ciel's cock slowly as his tongue delved into his lover's mouth.
Ciel groaned, trying to maneuver himself onto Sebastian's cock, certainly managing to rub himself wantonly against it. He scratched Sebastian's chest roughly, not managing to draw blood, but hopefully causing a little pain to get things moving. “Sebastian fuck me.” Without his eye patch on, and with the slight residual glow it almost seemed to be an order.
Sebastian placed his hands on either side of Ciel's waist and lifted him up slightly pressing his cock against Ciel's eager entrance. “Yes, my lord.” With those words Sebastian thrust hard and deep into Ciel and lowered him down so that his face was scarcely above the water. If he wanted to, Sebastian could force Ciel lower, but that could come later. Now he just wanted to feel Ciel's legs wrapped around him and that tight heat squeezing his cock while he had his way with his lover. Ciel had done very well at arousing Sebastian. He waited until Ciel was completely lost in the moment to look his lover in the eyes. “Take a deep breath, bouchan.” Giving Ciel only a moment to take in the required breath, Sebastian forced his lover's face under the water and continued to fuck him. He eventually let Ciel up for air and smiled briefly before doing it again. This time he let Ciel stay under a tiny bit longer though.
Ciel struggled hard at first, not being able to breathe and not being in control was never a good feeling for him, but when finally he let his mind meet his body he realized Sebastian would never let him die this way, and he could probably be sure of where his dying point would be. From then on, like most of Sebastian's sadistic pleasures, Ciel resigned to enjoy it. It was surely thrilling, the lightheaded feeling that came with a lack of breath combined with the feeling of Sebastian filling his so exquisitely...The demon had surely gotten bigger, despite the intense stretching he still felt full to the max. There was no use fighting as his body took it upon itself to move in time with his lover, for now he was Sebastian's doll, and that was fine for the moment.
Sebastian's eyes took on their demonic glow as he saw that his lover was no longer confused by the game. Sebastian never seemed to tire from the look of slight fear in Ciel's eyes each time his head was submerged, but he would always pull him back up again smiling. After one particularly long time under the water, Sebastian lifted Ciel's face to his and kissed him with an almost disturbing lack of tenderness. He then leaned back in the tub giving Ciel the control of the pace at which he would ride.
Ciel was in no mood for teasing theatrics tonight, he just wanted a rough ride and a delicious mouthful. Once he was on top he began to bounce hard against Sebastian, grinding down against him and forcing himself to take it all. He could practically feel himself tearing inside, but it was just too good to stop, even when the water became tinted with blood. The boy's face was flushed from holding his breath, but his lips were pale due to his near drowning. With his hair wet and dripping, he appeared older, maybe closer to Arthur's age, and far more sexy than cute.
Sebastian ran clawed fingers down Ciel's chest forgoing light foreplay style for rough raking instead. He moaned Ciel's name aloud and stroked his lover at the pace he himself set. It would not be long before Sebastian came and he was determined to make Ciel swallow every last drop. When he knew he was close he pulled Ciel off and smirked knowing his lover would get the idea.
Naturally Ciel knew where it was going, his mild spell of mind reading hadn't entirely gone away, and he would have used this moment to his own advantage anyway, which coincided with Sebastian's. Taking a deep breath he ducked his head underwater, taking Sebastian's cock into his mouth and sucking hungrily until he could feel his lover's warm come erupt into his mouth, even hear his moans faintly through the water.
Sebastian shuddered and called out Ciel's name as he came in his lover's mouth. Not one to leave his bouchan wanting for too long, Sebastian lifted him up enough so that he could finish Ciel off with his own mouth. It did not take long before Ciel came and Sebastian continued to suck and lick at his lover until he had swallowed it all. He then lifted his head and met eyes with Ciel. “How was that, bo-chan?”
"Beyond par as always...Mmm...” Ciel's post-satisfaction exhaustion was already setting in and as Sebastian let him down he cuddled against his love's chest, nuzzling into the demon's neck happily. “You smell wonderful…Do you ever need baths or is it natural?” Ciel knew he was just babbling sleepily, but he did love Sebastian's scent. He loved everything about Sebastian. This had to be real, there was no way his new body could fake this.
“Of course I bathe, bo-chan. I have heard however that when one is in love they are comforted by the scent of their lover. You smell wonderful to me always.” Sebastian kissed Ciel's soft hair and hated to be the one to suggest moving, but knew Ciel might catch some form of chill if left in the water too long. “We should move to the bed before the water gets too cold.”
“Yes...” But the boy showed no signs of moving, only nuzzling Sebastian further and holding him tighter. “Only one more day aboard...Do you ever regret causing so much pain and suffering, Sebastian?” Ciel mumbled against his skin, quite clearly falling asleep in his lover's arms now and despite his morbid thoughts he seemed quite content to be there.
Sebastian held fast to Ciel and sighed. He did not really understand the nature of the question. He had long ago learned that some would fear him in their last moments and others would accept things to be as they were. He was a demon and there was always pain and suffering. He caused no more than the next and really that could be said of humans too. Some humans caused as much if not more suffering as he could. At times it felt good to show mortals how weak they could really be. At other times it was a bother to deal with them at all. The word Ciel had chosen was so foreign. Regret? What exactly is that? Sebastian had only recently felt the emotion in regard to following through with his contract and dining on Ciel's soul. Other than that one time he had never experienced the emotion, and after that experience he hoped to never feel it again.
Sebastian laid Ciel down in the bed and silently left him to clear out the bathtub and wash himself as he tried to decipher the word. Sebastian could feel sorrow, but were they the same? He wanted to be able to answer Ciel's question but it was such a strange concept to him. Sebastian eventually curled up next to Ciel on the bed and pondered until day broke and he actually fell asleep from the exhaustion of thinking so much.

(A/N: So Ciel has another option and it doesn't involve eating people! That's always a bonus. Sebastian will struggle with human emotions now. Ciel makes him feel them despite his best efforts to remain only attached to his lover. Its important to note that while this will in no way soften him as a demon, it can effect his decisions and the like in many ways. I always play Sebastian with a sense of detachment that takes pleasure in the pain of others who deserve it. He cares little one way or the other for pain caused in innocents at this point. But the pleasure he derives will be increased in the pain suffered by those who wrong anyone he comes to care about. His love for Ciel may even make him care about those Ciel comes to care about...Next chapter...Ciel is so out of shape and we proudly present the first yuri scene of the story!
