"Speaking"
*thinking*

Chapter 3: What's My Name…


"Sebastian… what are we going to do with him?" Ciel asked. Sebastian crossed his arms thoughtfully, standing for a few moments before speaking. "I suppose we should get him medical attention first of all. Excuse me Bocchan, while I call for a physician." Sebastian bowed, excusing himself from his masters presence and heading down the stairs.

Ciel stood in place outside of the door, pondering whether to go in or not. He sighed and entered the room. The first thing to reach the young boys range of vision was Grell; who had seemed to be finding great interest in his finger nails.

"Ahem!" Ciel cleared his throat, trying to gain the red heads attention. "Hm?" Grell asked, turning to Ciel.

"What are you doing?" Ciel asked awkwardly. "Hm? OH! Uh, sorry. I just noticed that my nails are polished… and long." Grell said, holding up his hand for Ciel to see. Ciel stared flatly at the black painted nails. "Yes… well y-" "Oh, did one of you paint them? I really like it, thank you!" Grell smiled happily.

Ciel sweat dropped, turning his head slightly. "Uh… sure." He sighed, ignoring the fact that Grell probably did them himself.

Grell sighed sadly once again. "Hey, um…" Grell trailed off. "Ciel." Ciel corrected. "Yes, Ciel. D-do you know… w-who I am?" Grell looked at Ciel hopefully. "I don't know my name…" he looked down, grabbing a piece of his long hair and twirling it nervously with his index finger; a habit he had had since childhood (although he doesn't remember).

Ciel opened his mouth to tell him but hesitated. What if hearing the name brought back the forgotten memory too quickly and caused some sort of trauma…? Oh well… Grell wasn't exactly one of his favorite people so he didn't really care.

"I don't know if your ready for that information. Your mind might react negatively to any memories it might bring back!" Ciel explained calmly.

Grell shook his head quickly. "I-I… I DON'T CARE!!!" Grell exclaimed, leaning forward. Ciel leaned back slightly. "P-please tell me… I want to know who I am…" Grell whispered as tears started welling up in his eyes.

Ciel was taken aback by the Shinigami's sudden emotional breakdown. Grell's eyes started overflowing and tears started slowly flowing down his cheek's.

Just then Sebastian came back into the room. "Young master, the doctor will be here soon. He has just finished with his previous appointment and-" Sebastian stopped in his tracks, finally noticing Grell. Grell was on the bed with his hair falling all around him. His eyes were filled with tears and his cheeks were flushed and streaked. He was holding one of his hands to his mouth to hold back the sobs that were trying to escape his throat.

Sebastian looked over to Ciel once again. "What happened?" he inquired calmly, walking to Ciel's side. Ciel looked up at Sebastian with his one visible eye holding the slightest hint of worry.  

"He wants to know his name and I explained to him that revealing his true identity could bring back some hurtful and or unwanted memories which could result in trauma!" Ciel explained.

"Please, tell me, I don't care what it does to me! I need to know!" Grell sobbed quietly, a little embarrassed at having cried at all.

Ciel looked at Sebastian as if to ask if it was alright. Sebastian nodded with a smile. Ciel carefully walked to the bed and sat down beside Grell. Grell looked at Ciel eagerly. "Your name is Grell Sutcliff."

Grell's eyes widened. "…Grell…" he echoed. He smiled happily, his eyes sparkling. He leaned forward and hugged Ciel closely. "Thank you, Thank you, Thank youuuu!!!!" Grell cried excitedly.

"Gah!!!" Ciel shouted, pushing at Grell's shoulders. Grell smiled, letting go of Ciel. "Thank you." He beamed. Ciel blushed. "Yes, well… it's not like I did anything special, I just told you your name, you twit!" Ciel said, feeling rather flustered. Grell just smiled. (A/n: Nooooo, I know what your thinking, and NO, Ciel and Grell do not fall in love. Ciel is just flustered because he's not really used to a lot of physical contact…. Or Grell's clingy personality)

"Well, it means a lot to me." Grell said sweetly, the unshed tears in his eyes sparkling.

Sebastian watched as the slightly touching scene played out and was amazed that Grell hadn't even tried to make a move on him yet. In fact, he was paying more attention to young master than anything else… *We must have hit him harder than I had originally thought…* Sebastian thought.
