WHO: Greed & Zoe w/Jonah
WHEN: Friday/Saturday
WHERE: Greed's apartment, Zoe and Jonah's apartment
WHAT: Bets and bad guys
WARNING: Slaps, puppy shove, cut up clothes
Greed didn't often get tired, but he was still in a human body that had limits. He was the energizer bunny, but even long lasting batteries needed a recharge. Lust could wear him out in days. Zoe and a new, important job took months. When he'd called her at lunch he was sure he'd actually fallen asleep for a few seconds because the line had gone blank before she called his name enough times for an answer. Later in the day he'd taken a nap in his swirly chair for thirty minutes. Times like this human bodies were mean and limiting.
He came to the door of his apartment to find it was inhabited with a guest and he hasn't even got his keys out.
_____________________________________
Zoe had her eyes closed, sitting on her bag so not to dirty her black and purple dress too much. Greed had sounded so tired on the phone when he talked to her earlier.. and she knew he wouldn't have any groceries at home because he normally went shopping with her to stock his kitchen and they hadn't been since they got back from their family vacation. So she got some takeout from his favorite chinese place and took the bus out to his place so she could be there when he got home. Plus, hadn't he said he wanted to get used to her surprising him more? She was a little wary about how he might react but when he got to the door and could see her, she just lifted the takeout bag (that had grease stains from the eggrolls they loved) and looked up at him, "Surprise." she said softly.
_____________________________________
Greed rubbed an eye under the glasses propped up on his nose. He never needed them to actually see, they just made him look smart. But for a second he thought he'd imagined her there. With food even. The lurch if his stomach told him this had to be a mirage.
"A dream that comes with food?" He took that last step up to tangle with his keys. He was too tired to even put it in the keyhole. But he was pretty confident he could fuck well in his sleep if it came to it. The door handle not so much.
_____________________________________
He looked exhausted.. she got to her feet quickly, "Not a dream, just a girlfriend with food." she kissed his cheek, "Hold this?" and she handed him the take out and took the key from him so she could unlock the apartment door and open it so they could go inside.
_____________________________________
"I'm usually good with putting things in holes..." He spoke as they walked over the threshold and inside. He'd Sat the bag down on a side table stacked with magazines, already trying to take his shoes of before he'd turned on the lights. He was severely uncoordinated when he was tired.
_____________________________________
She chuckled, "Yes, I know..." she turned on the lights and closed the door behind them, "The one time you actually do take your shoes off.." she made sure he had his balance and then said, "Why don't you strip to your boxers and I'll get dinner set up, we can watch a movie with it."
_____________________________________
He still had the glasses on when he took off everything but the matching pair of grey boxers to his suit that had a yellow band. If he had gone to his bed he'd have never returned, not even fir the smell of fresh eggrolls. He sat down in the couch legs stretched our on the table with another stack of magazines. To most people they were months old to be thrown out, but he kept all his junk mail. He was still looking for the Sweepstakes check.
_____________________________________
She put on 'Warm Bodies' and the food was ready by the time he plopped down on the couch. She sat next to him, plucking off the glasses and holding an egg roll up to his mouth. He had to eat something before he fell asleep. The junk he had lying around rarely bothered her now, she knew that he kept everything because it meant something to him and she made her peace with it.
_____________________________________
Greed would clean things in his own way, move and shuffle around less important pieces in his system. So, even if Zoe had mentioned it, he already knew where the stacks of magazines and mail would go. He flopped his head back against the couch, getting a whiff of the eggroll. He lazily opened his eyes to take it, still not sure if he wanted to eat or sleep. "Just plug me into the wall maybe I'll recharge faster." He didn't like being sluggish, this happened a lot when Sloth lived with him. It was why he kicked him out. This now was just Greed winding down after going at full speed for months.
_____________________________________
"Eat a little bit and then you can go to sleep, it'll recharge you." she kissed his cheek, "Just a few bites so you don't sleep on an empty stomach. You can even just sleep right here on the sofa."
_____________________________________
He'd been around a Virtue for months, her grandfather, and learning to swim. His body was saying it needed a break even if his mind was still on auto pilot. He dud as she said, swallowing down that eggroll in slower bites than usual. Then he just slid down the couch, head landing in her lap. He looked up at her, noticing the dress and her pretty face. "You look pretty."
_____________________________________
She smiled down at him and stroked his hair, "Aww, thank you. You're pretty too." and she leaned down to give him a quick kiss. "You also look sleepy."
_____________________________________
He grinned cheekily. "I know I am." He wiggled a little too get comfy. Now that he'd eaten a little he could have another bite.
_____________________________________
She held another egg roll in front of his lips, "Don't get used to this.. you just seem super tired so I thought I'd help out since you were so great on the boat and have been working so hard." but she said it with a smile.
_____________________________________
"Alright miss sex fiend..." He poked her softly in the side. She had jumped his bones when they got home, it made him feel a bit empowered. He was really getting her comfortable and used to this part of his world for as long as they could have it. He want thinking about when it ended.
_____________________________________
She blushed and grinned, poking him back, "I am not a sex fiend..." she jiggled her leg to get him to sit up a little so he could chew and swallow.
_____________________________________
"Well who was the tiger who jumped me last week?" He sat up with a pillow under his head so he didn't snort down his food. "You weren't no kitten." She had taken control in such a way that he didn't feel threatened.
_____________________________________
"I told you, I'm fierce." and she made a tough face but still managed to just look like a fierce baby seal. She took a bite of his egg roll before offering it to him, "I was just.. I don't know." she was starting to feel embarrassed.
_____________________________________
"That night you were. Nothing was gonna stop you from getting a piece of me." He laughed but she was obviously turning pink. "You were horny. And I finally got to see it."
_____________________________________
She smacked him lightly, "As if you didn't want it.." she smiled but it was shy, "I've been horny for you before.." she'd told him that but he never seemed to believe her.
_____________________________________
"I always want it." But even if they got to have sex now it wasn't what they were all about. He liked that sometimes like this he could breathe and do other things. With Lust he couldn't do anything else. They fought, they fucked, and then they fucked some more. Zoe wanted to do other things that weren't using his body, it was nice. It didn't mean he didn't always bring sex up at least. She got so embarrassed. He was determined to mellow her out on the subject. "But this time you were horny and you took advantage of it. It was surprising. You took the wheel fir a bit and you weren't nervous." It was her confidence that was sexy.
_____________________________________
She smacked him again and still was pink, "I've tried taking the wheel before.. you've just never been one to let it go easily." she rested her hand on his stomach, "It was almost like a sneak attack since you were so weirded out about your sexy beard."
_____________________________________
"I can't believe you jumped me for the squirrel in my face." He shook his head, eyes looking down under those thick lashes as he played with her fingers in his own hand. "I dunno...It was a little like we were role-playing and it was ok for me." She'd snuck in pretty quick, he didn't have room to complain. "You were a little ninja."
_____________________________________
She chuckled, "You've jumped me for less... I liked it." her fingers bent and flexed and played with his as she admitted, "I was scared.. you normally just shut down or turn mean if I try to take the lead. I thought I'd do what you do and be a sex ninja."
_____________________________________
"Well, you caught on pretty good." He was still looking at their conjoined hands. "I was a good surprised." His thumb rubbed over the top of her hand.
_____________________________________
She shook their hands a little and asked carefully, "And what about tonight...?" since this was the first time she surprised him since the fiasco without him knowing anything about it.
_____________________________________
"What about tonight?" He hadn't realized her surprise visit hadn't put him in edge. He was slowly inviting her into his space. Making her a part of it.
_____________________________________
She fiddled with his hand and twisted her lips to the side before looking at him, "Well.... you didn't invite me over and you didn't say I could come over sometime this week... and you had no idea I was coming. It was a total surprise." and normally he acted like a dickhead when that happened. But here he was snuggling up to her, playing with her hand, relaxed.
_____________________________________
He picked at the web's of her fingers, somewhere in his head for a while before he put together her answer. "I dunno, you're getting pretty good at sharpening your ninja skills." He closed their hands in a tight squeeze. "I'm getting better at it." Valentine's had taught him the value of what would happen if he passed up the opportunities she gave him. "I'm okay with tonight." He picked at her fingers again.
_____________________________________
She gave him a lopsided smile, "I'll take 'okay' for now.." and she leaned down to sweetly kiss his lips. Okay wasn't great but for them? It was a great start.
_____________________________________
"It's not perfect I know, but I'm trying." And that was something Zoe could appreciate from him that other girls wouldn't. He was persistent. If getting comfortable with her in his space was part of keeping her, then he was going to try his hardest. He linked their fingers again, holding her there so he could steal another kiss before she leaves back up. It was a nice, toasty warm up.
_____________________________________
She smiled and wrinkled her nose, "Perfect is boring." she gave him a second kiss and then a third, staying close to him, her big brown eyes looking into his blues, "I egg roll you for trying." she said in a whisper. It was all she ever asked of him. To just try. Maybe it'd take years to get there but let's try. he often pushed her to go beyond her comfort zone, she was doing the same in a different way.
_____________________________________
"With duck sauce?" He pulled her sudden fir a little more than a friendly kiss, even if his skin started to peel.
_____________________________________
She didn't answer, just hummed against his lips and made sure that there was no tongue action. Her hand was his prisoner andshe broke the kiss just a smidge to raise a brow, "I thought you were tired..."
_____________________________________
"I am..." He grinned dragging her lips in for more, but she put on the brakes. "I just like your lips too..."
_____________________________________
She was so helpless against his lips that she let the kiss continue for a little longer before she gave him an eskimo kiss, "I like yours too." she kissed him one more time and then leaned back up, "You want more food?"
_____________________________________
His eyes shifted to the bag, not able to see what else she had hiding. "What else is there?" He could eat a bit more.
_____________________________________
"There could be some crab... some beef tips." she grinned, "Tho that's the only beef I'm going near tonight." referencing their former inside joke as she dug around in the bag and took out another carton.
_____________________________________
"Maybe next time." He nudged her to remind her if that idea she had thrown him at the beach. He breathed in the greasy goodness telling her to surprise him.
_____________________________________
She blushed and stuffed a big piece of crab in his mouth to keep him from saying anything else.
_____________________________________
She stuffed his face with food so he couldn't make anymore references too made her blush. With a full stomach he tangled with her under a blanket on the couch without rolling over and falling on his face. He slept in the next morning, covering his face with the blanket so he could keep out the light, and Greed didn't often waste that much time sleeping the day away unless Sloth was around.
_____________________________________
Zoe had changed into one of Greed's t-shirts but since it was one of his muscle bound ones that hugged his body, it didn't cover too much of her so she put on her pair of star wars boyshorts that she kept at his place. She loved sleeping in his clothes, they always made her feel snuggly. She was under the blanket with him, her face buried in his neck as she slept.
_____________________________________
He was in no rush to get up. He was warm, she was wrapped around him like silly string. There was nothing better at that moment. Just pure bliss to be tangled up with her. He rubbed his face in her hair, tugging the blanket over that little ray that poked through an open spot being his head. He shimmied down until he was cloaked in the gentle embrace of darkness. He wasn't getting up yet. He refused.
_____________________________________
She mmmmm'd in her sleep as he moved around and gave him a firm loving kiss on his cheek that had peach fuzz, "Morning..." she mummbled before sighing and falling back asleep literally on his face.
_____________________________________
"It's not morning!" He grumbled snuggling closer as if he could be her Siamese twin. There was no reason to get up now, why would she say good morning. They slept there a little longer until the sun refused to keep itself down. Then Greed had no choice as he flipped the blanket back, revealing the mid morning sun rays.
_____________________________________
Zoe was happy to be snuggly with him and keep sleeping. She liked knowing he was there and when he flipped the blanket back, she just burrowed into him, her long legs tangling with his.
_____________________________________
"Stop moving!" He shielded his eyes with his arm, but that didn't help either. So now he just had to drag himself up like the walking dead. He started to climb out of her monkey limbs, but she only hung on tighter. "Let me up...." He whined, face planting the floor the moment he was untangled.
_____________________________________
"Mmm more room for me..." she said with a sleepy smile and once he crashed to the floor, she rolled over into his spot and snuggled into it.
_____________________________________
He smacked her bare arm. When she still didn't budge he dragged her down on him. Now neither of them could sleep.
_____________________________________
She let out a yelp of surprise and landed on him, her hair was a mess and she looked at him with squinting eyes, "Jerk." and she leaned forward to kiss him but her lips landed on his scruffy chin.
_____________________________________
He looked at the clock on the wall, momentarily panicking that he was late for work. "Shit it's 11!" He was about to scramble! And who could pick our an outfit in ten minutes?! He didn't even realize it was Saturday.
_____________________________________
Zoe put her hands on his cheeks and made him look her in the eye, her nose touching his, "It's Saturday." she said in a calming voice. He needed the rest.
_____________________________________
His head hit the floor with a groan. "Oh thank God." He was relieved. He'd kick himself for being late because he slept in. That was as bad as missing church.
_____________________________________
She smiled and patted his flat stomach, "You're a nut." then she stretched her arms with a yawn, the shirt going up enough to just give a peek of her tummy, "Unlike you, I actually do have work today. But not for a few hours."
_____________________________________
"What? No..." He grabbed at her. She said she had a few hours but that was mere minutes in Greed-time. Her job was stealing her from him. Rude! He poked her belly when he saw it wondering if she stretched just a little more if he'd get a more perfect view. "That's my shirt..." He grinned in a way that said 'take it off.'
_____________________________________
She jumped and her arms went down and across her torso when he poked her, "I have to work, pay the bills, otherwise they take away my heat and electricity." he had that wolfish grin and she bit her bottom lip and kept her hands on the shirt, making sure it stayed down, "Very observant."
_____________________________________
"I'll keep you warm," he pulled her hands away to let his own sneak up her tummy. "I'll pay your bills." Then she wouldn't have to work at all and he could keep her to himself.
_____________________________________
She grinned and made a face at him, trying to stave off his hand that was sneaking around, "You barely make enough to pay your own bills and NO, I refuse to let you keep me in a box here." cause she knew he'd never consider moving in but he would consider keeping her in a box to play with when he wanted.
_____________________________________
He puckered or his bottom lip until it couldn't go out any further. It was just hanging out ready to be hooked, easily distracting while his hands worked their way to that shirt. "I want my shirt back..."
_____________________________________
She leaned back from him, "Noooo.. I only have star wars underoos on and that's it." she was otherwise nude without that shirt. Tho they both had undies on, technically he might not burn up.
_____________________________________
He kept forgetting they were in quarantine when they were out of her apartment. "And I've got on Iron Man." She could give him a little leeway....
_____________________________________
She put her arms to her chest and turned away from him, "Are you gonna take off Iron Man if I take off your shirt?" as long as one of them wasn't totally naked, they were good.
_____________________________________
Greed sighed with disdain. "No, Iron Man stays suited up." He sat up on his elbows, fingers drumming the floor as he impatiently waited for the unveil.
_____________________________________
She pouted, "That seems unfair.. what'll you give me for the shirt?" she was weasling to make her own deal but they both knew he could kiss her and take the shirt off without her even reaizing it.
_____________________________________
He flopped his leg over to nudge her into getting in his lap. "I dunno, what do you want?" He posed a high brow. She was swindling and dealing again.
_____________________________________
She scooted closer to his lap, "Oh no, you offer ME something. I wanna see what you can come up with. She held the shirt dowwn still.
_____________________________________
He scratched his chin, thinking as he looked around the room. "Hrmmm....how about I teach you to drive the yellow beast." That's what she got for making him go in water. "Now you crash it, then I'll be mad."
_____________________________________
She stopped short of his lap and looked stunned, "Your car?" her eyes were wide and then she grimaced and shook her head, "No... no, no, I don't think that's a good idea. I probably will end up crashing it and you'll dump me." but it was obvious there was more to it than that. Since he'd met her, she'd never been behind the wheel of a car.
_____________________________________
"I would dump you if you killed my car." He pulled her into his lap, his hands sneaking around to flick the underwear band off her skin. "But you're still gonna drive it."
_____________________________________
She barely noticed him playing with her underwear but she sat in his lap and gave him a dull look, "So I will drive it but if I crash it, you'll dump me. No. Thank. You." she was not getting in the driver's seat even if he duct taped her into it.
_____________________________________
"You won't crash because I won't let you," his hand slid down her back, nudging the underwear edge with his fingers. "You just got to know how to handle her."
_____________________________________
She curled against him, taking comfort in how big and strong he was, but she still shook her head, "I don't know how to handle her. And you can't control the car and whether it crashes unless you're behind the wheel."
_____________________________________
"So I'll tell you all the right tricks that make her purr like a kitten." His hands kept going before they slid up her shirt so he could peel it off over her head.
_____________________________________
She shook her head, still frowning, "Chance, it's too risky. one wrong move and the entire car will-- hey!" her chin raised as the t-shirt was up and over her head and she was only left in her star wars underoos, her arms making an X over her naked torso.
_____________________________________
He worked to unhook her arms. "You need to learn how to drive. You like sailing in a boat but won't get behind the wheel of a car? Okay so well train with the jag if it makes you less nervous." He fanned her arms out, hands in a grip so they had nowhere to go. She acted like hed never looked at or fondled all her assets. They were insured by him now via his time, she wasn't going to hide them.
_____________________________________
She kept frowning and struggled against his grip and said, "Are you nuts? The jag? And you don't care if that gets totaled?" she turned pink when he got her arms open and leaned in to squish against him so her assets were covered by his chest.
_____________________________________
"Well, no, but I'd rather that than the yellow beast." As she hid safely against him he laughed, head flipped back towards the ceiling. She was acting so shy it was adorably cute...and hilarious. If she were a bunny she would have burrowed right into his chest.
_____________________________________
"Why do I need to learn to drive anyway? I live in New York, it's the one city on earth where you specifically don't need a car." she put her chin on his chest and scrunched up her face at him when he laughed, but she was still trying to use him as cover up.
_____________________________________
"Because you made me swim." Now it was time for him to make her jump in and start kicking. He snuck in a kiss on her cheek with another big, hearty laugh. "You are ridiculous you know that?" He slid her arms back behind her back, he was careful not to twist too much like a pretzel or she might just break in half and he wanted her arms to stay in tact.
_____________________________________
Her mouth dropped open, "It's not the same..." she said in a half whine, knowing that it was kinda the same but she didn't want to drive. She made a face at him when he kissed her cheek and laughed. "What?" she asked since he was fairly amused. She knew he had a kink for this dominating thing so she let him do as he wanted even tho it put her in a helpless position, but she stayed plastered against his chest as best as she could, no peeks even.
_____________________________________
"Why is it like you're trying to hide from me?" he nipped her shoulder. They had violated her apartment and her roommate's ears for months now, they'd been extremely intimate. Why was it like they were just rolling around half naked for the first time? She was still acting like a shy teenager and they were just snuggling up like a pair of cats.
_____________________________________
She jumped a little at his bite, squirming against him, "I'm not... I'm right in front of you." she wrinkled her nose, "Held captive in fact. Kinda hard to miss."
_____________________________________
"Captive and all shy like I haven't seen everything." He rubbed his nose against hers for another little love bite and a kiss. "I'll make you a deal. I let your arms go when you agree to drive the jag. Then you have freedom." She didn't know what it felt like to have the wheel in her hands while the wind whipped through her hair. She needed to taste that.
_____________________________________
"That's different... that's in the mood, not.. sitting around and talking in broad daylight..." she looked at him after his kiss and then just kept staring, she wouldn't agree to driving the car, he could just keep her captive.
_____________________________________
"So what you dint want to be sitting on me half naked unless it's mood related? I'm insulted. I thought I made a good chair." So she could just sit back and admire him, but he couldn't do the same? The hypocrisy. "You'll need to use those arms eventually," he was basically giving her no choice, but he suspected he'd have to step up his game to something more serious. "Do I need to take something away?" He spoke as if reprimanding a child that had been wanting something all day.
_____________________________________
Her mouth dropped open, "No! I.. I don't mind sitting on you half naked, especially if you're naked but I don't know.. it's a little weird.. and very exposed. But yes, you do make a great chair, naked, half naked, or not naked." she had a look on her face that suggested she was gonna hold out as long as she could, "Right, like you're not enjoying this." but she turned her head to the side and narrowed her eyes, "Like what..?"
_____________________________________
"Like," he said crimping her hands in his, "taking away something you really enjoy..." his eyebrow wiggled upward, a caterpillar on a tree limb waving in the air. "Something you really enjoy." There were two things he could make off limits that he could think of....only in his ridiculous game he could fuck himself over too if she insisted on saying no. He was hoping the threat proved harsh enough that she might bend. He was being severely manipulative, but not to hurt her.
_____________________________________
She was still his willing prisoner and pretended to be really confused as she cocked her head to the side, "My ipod?" of course she was teasing him but she loved it.
_____________________________________
"If you enjoy your ipod over my mouth or my dick then we have a problem." He'd proved with their time spent in a frustrated mess before trips to Lithuania and Kansas that he could put himself in solitary confinement....it just didn't last before he went complete apeshit. He was trying to push a different set of buttons here and she wasn't budging.
_____________________________________
She gave him a look, "Are you seriously saying you're gonna withold sex, even kissing from me until I agree to learn how to drive from you?" was he nuts? She would lose it. Then again, half the time he was tackling her..
_____________________________________
"I am." He was being incredibly smart he thought (even if it did backfire) because she would have to cave. She had to! "No kisses on the mouth."
_____________________________________
She couldn't believe what she was hearing. "So no sex. And no kisses on the mouth." she raised her brows and looked down with a shrug, "Fine. I can do that." she looked at him, "Or rather, not do that." his move.
_____________________________________
"I don't think you can..." especially if he grew a little fuzz on his chin. She'd be ready to eat him all up. The fact that she wanted to challenge him made it that much more exciting. "Alright then. We'll see who can hold out the longest. And if you cave...you learn to drive the jag."
_____________________________________
She narrowed her eyes, but she wasn't sure she could.. he'd gotten her used to delicious kisses.. "And if you cave... then you drop the whole learning how to drive thing. Forever."
_____________________________________
Well, he couldn't hang his head in shame, she'd learned off him quite well. This was a new, aggressive Zoe. A sexy Zoe....damnit! He had to get that word out of his brain if he was going to win, because at that moment he let her arms go and nodded. "You have a deal." Now he had to figure out what they were going to do with their time. Something that didn't involve....touching...
_____________________________________
She shook out her wrists and then twined her arms around his neck, "Good. Thank you." she leaned in like she was going to kiss him but stopped, "Oh wait, we can't do that." she grinned and rubbed her nose against his in an eskimo kiss and then pushed down on his shoulders to stand up.
_____________________________________
When she couldn't see he closed his eyes for a moment to mentally kick himself before preparing himself to face the music. This....was going to be difficult. The cocoanut wafting from her hair as she nudged noses did not help one bit. He needed to meditate. He followed her kind of wondering what they did now. "So what is it? Movie, breakfast, a walk?" he had to stop and think what did humans do when they weren't working or having fun.
_____________________________________
She covered her chest with his t-shirt, "Breakfast sounds good. And a walk would be really nice." she could see the wheels in his head turning and leaned in, bumping him lightly, "You know, back when we first knew each other, we never even kissed." it was on their third meeting that he even got her to kiss him on the cheek.
_____________________________________
"This is just another challenge." he was determined to prove he could win this bet. "Or have you forgotten how far I'm willing to go to get something I want?" He stood up, taller than her and arms wanting to tangle around her. He was going to use this time for a shower. "Just like it was then." She would lose this one. Once again.
_____________________________________
"I remember." but he also wanted her, and she knew it. She chuckled, "Just like it was then.... then that means you'll kiss me first. Since you did kiss me first back then." even if she'd wanted to for awhile and she did keep kissing him after he started it..
_____________________________________
"I won't be the first this time, that is going to be you!" he pointed a finger at her as he slipped into the bedroom, walking backwards inside. "It'll be you...." he warned in a whisper before disappearing to clean up and get dressed. There still wasn't much in his fridge other than the leftovers from the night before. They'd have to do breakfast down the street at some local bakery.
_____________________________________
She burst out laughing cause he was a melodramatic geek and she loved him. It was hard tho... they got to hold hands walking to breakfast and she pecked him on his frog ear when he dropped her off to work in the afternoon, by the evening when he came over, she was itching to kiss him but refused to give in. They were just going to relax on the couch... no touchy feely stuff. Okay so maaaaaaaaaaaaaaybe she changed into a sexy yellow flowy casual dress that showed off she wasn't wearing a bra cause it had peeks of her naked back showing through just to kinda try to nudge the bet in her favor a tiny bit.
_____________________________________
Two could play at this game. He wore a hoodie all day while she was wasting away at work. It was good because it meant he could focus on NOT touching her until the evening waned on. It was what was under the hoodie that was the big surprise. When he got inside for their evening in at her apartment she was playing this game as nasty and mean as he was. Devil. That girl was the Devil. She was showing off skin, with a golden yellow dress and her girls out to play underneath. Now, he had made the rules that they weren't allowed to kiss on the lips, but that didn't mean he couldn't do anything to try and sway her without his lips. His deal, his rules.
She was going down.
_____________________________________
She just smiled sweetly like she wasn't totally trying to win. "Jonah's walking Samson.. so we got the place to ourselves for the moment." her feet were bare.. and so were her legs. She was a tiny bit chilly but she knew he also loved looking at her legs so hey anything to help her side. She took a seat on the sofa and grabbed the remote. She was gonna win.
_____________________________________
He unzipped his hoodie down to were his pecs stopped and his torso began, she only got a peak of the shirt underneath which was a fancy tank top. He wasn't pulling out all the big guns yet. Those puppies would do their job when the time was right.
"What are we watching?" He asked taking a seat down beside her. "The rules were no kissing on the mouth or sex." He says it to remind himself, but with her legs exposed he couldn't help putting his hand on her knee...close to her thigh. It wasn't breaking his rule, it was an attempt to make her cave.

She did peek at his shirt but he was still mostly covered up, "What Women Want. It's supposed to be terrible but it's a romcom I haven't seen yet." and she heard there were a couple of sex scenes in it. She hit play and smiled a little, "I know what the rules are.." she fidgeted when he touched her leg and then shifted in her seat and suddenly both her caramel legs with yellow trim cause of the dress were in his lap. She gave him an innocent look, "Sorry, you don't mind, right? I just wanted to stretch out a llittle."
_____________________________________
Oh she was trying to make him boil, using those sneaky legs of hers. And her skin was soft. He bet she'd just put lotion ask down those things. Evil, evil girl. No bother. She had them in his lap now which meant he had more room to let his hand slide up. "You cold?" He asked grabbing her ice cold feet to massage in his hands." While he talked and they watched, they crept from her ankle to her calf, still massaging her leg the higher he went.
_____________________________________
She felt like she could melt when he massaged her feet, it felt so good after standing on her feet at work. Even hen his hand went higher, it still felt good but she was having a hard time paying attention to the movie, "A little warm actually.. you?" her skin was warming under his touch.
_____________________________________
He knew he'd hit the right spot, her body relaxing under his clever fingers which waned up her calf to underneath her knee. When he reached her thigh, he had to take a whiff of that lotion. "Island Breeze?" He was trying to figure out the scent because it was hypnotic.
_____________________________________
Her eyes were going more to his hands massaging her legs than watching the movie, when he smelled her and guessed what lotion it was, she shook her head, "No... just me." she wasn't wearing any scented lotion, what he was smelling was all her.
_____________________________________
He needed to stop or he'd fall into his own trap. She just smelled so good, that our his sniffer was keener from the fact they hadn't really touched or been all over one another. His hands slipped dangerously close to the place he wanted to go under her skirt and back down her leg. If she still didn't cave he'd move on to plan B.
It was just about then on the screen that at least someone was getting some action, and he shifted a little in his seat.
_____________________________________
She let him go as high up her leg as he wanted cause she wanted it too. She was disappointed when he managed to catch himself and slide back down. So close! She also looked at the screen where the couple was making out furiously and her feet shifted in his lap, one foot stroking his thigh side to side casually.
_____________________________________
This was much more difficult than he'd hoped. She was really holding out and doing her best to get to him. It was getting hot in there. He wasn't exaggerating when he fanned himself with the hoodie. It needed to come off and sooner than he'd been gunning for. The more her foot caressed the more sweat started to build up on the back of his neck. The scene displayed on the screen might as well have been porn for them as desperate as they were.
"It's warm in here..." his hand raked over his neck and then unzipped the hoodie to reveal his perfectly sculpted arms in that expensive tank top.
_____________________________________
She was feeling confident about getting him to crack until he unzipped he took off his hoodie. Her lips parted in surprise because this was just playing dirty! He knew she had a weakness for his arms. His tan wasn't entirely faded so they looked glorious and golden and big and perfect and she was just staring at them, trying hard not to touch them since she almost always ended up running her hand along the curve.
_____________________________________
When her eyes were on him he made sure to flex with just a simple movement so she could reach out to touch. His hands went back to her feet, massaging them softly. He knew they were sore from work, it also kept her from using them on his leg.
_____________________________________
She let out a content breath when he started working on her feet and she kept staring at his naked arm. She couldn't resist it any longer and she traced the tips of her fingers over the curve of his upper arm. She didn't get to do much more when the front door opened with the tall Virtue and his small dog. She looked over, "Hi, Jonah." her hand dropping into her lap.
_____________________________________
He should have known that Greed would be there, he always was.Jonah stepped inside to unhook Samsonwho went barreling towards Zoe.
Jonah was also surprised to not see them all over each other, which was a curious thing since he left Greed's appartment. "Hey. Watching a movie,?" He was going to try and be casual about this.
_____________________________________
It was true, she wasn't in Greed's lap and they weren't kissing or all over each other. He looked like a normal sweet boyfriend who was rubbing his tired girlfriend's tootsies because he cared. Zoe looked happy to see Samson, cuddling the pup to her bosom when he jumped up on her and tried to lick her face, "Yeah, 'What Women Want'--" but it ended in a laugh cause of the pup.
_____________________________________
The puppy whined happily trying again to get her face soaked in his tongue. "Haven't seen that one." Jonah came over to rescue Zoe from the hyperactive mess in her arms. Once he had a hold of his collar he dragged Samson into his lap as he sat in the lounge chair. "It any good?" He noticed Zoe was dressed fancy for just a night on the couch. "You look like you're ready to go somewhere." Well, aside from Greed and his foot massage.
_____________________________________
Zoe kissed the puppy a few times on the head before Jonah took him, "It's alright..." she said about the movie, they hadn't really been paying too much attention to it. She looked down at the yellow dress she was wearing, "Wha? This old thing?" she laughed a little, "No... just wearing it for no reason, casually." her toes wiggling in Greed's hands.
_____________________________________
"You know there are a million different spots on your foot..." Greed spoke up, using his thumbs to press into the ball of her foot where the most pressure went from standing for hours. "They hit certain spots to the rest of your body." Jonah looked at Greed unimpressed.
"We know that Greed." It was I'd Jonah were speaking to a talkative child. Greed just continued his little massage hoping he hit the right one that maybe turned her on. Of course Jonah sitting there watching Greed's dive into foot reflexology was a big cock block. Greed was trying to win a deal here.
_____________________________________
Zoe said, "I didn't know that." since Jonah had said 'we' and she didn't like him speaking for her. "I know about the head and neck a little bit but I never though to study the feet." she was interested in what Greed had to say. He had centuries of knowledge and expierence tucked under his belt. Unlike Jonah, who refused to share, Greed was an open book and Zoe looooved to read.
_____________________________________
"It works very similarly to neck or head except you stand on your feet the most, so the pressure points hit nearly every part of your body. From your eyes to your stomach abs some say even arousal." He grinned very pleased with himself as he rubbed at her ankle between his thumb and forefinger.
"It's not proven that arousal actually works from your feet."Jonah interjected as Samson settled in his lap.
"How would you know?" Greed asked. "Assuming you could even arouse anyone." From here Jonah was just the guy that sat on the couch debating if he could hold a girls hand.
_____________________________________
She was smiling but when the boys began to bicker, she sighed and said, "I don't know about arousal but I can say that any man that gives me a foot massage like this is an extremely attractive figure." and she grinned at Greed. She flopped her head back on the arm of the sofa, her brown eyes seeking out Jonah, "You should try it."
_____________________________________
"I guess it only helps that your masseuse could bust a blood vessel in his arm with just lifting his hand for a wave." Jonah had massaged her wrist before when Greed refused, but now Greed just had her in a fish hook. By the feet. "Maybe..." Jonah shied away from the topic and glanced at the tv.
Greed smoothed his hands over her feet until her toes were the last thing he rubbed all the way to the tips. He may have stopped but he wasn't done. He motioned for Zoe to shift and lean her head into his lap so he could try his hand at head massage. Like she's shown him.
_____________________________________
Zoe closed her eyes to enjoy the massage, and it soothed another part of the damage Greed had caused last year. At a certain point, he stopped taking care of her and slowly slowly he was starting to again. She opened her eyes when he was done with her feet and was surprised when he motioned that he was gonna keep going. She smiled brightly and hopped up to sit between his legs so he could keep going and also get a close up view of the yellow wheeled pattern on her back with her skin just winking at him through the holes.
_____________________________________
When she stopped, he wiggled her hips so she was practically on top where he leaned her head back to lay on his chest and he started the massage by rubbing her temples.
_____________________________________
She let him manuver her and released a happy sigh when she felt his hands on her temples. Her own arms rested on his legs, her fingers drumming on his knees, squeezing when he hit a nice spot.
_____________________________________
She squeezed his legs a lot when his thumbs pressed into the back of her head and his fingers fanned out into her scalp. He loved the feel of her flossy hair, but he loved when he got to fondle it. Jonah sat back with what appeared to be some jealousy. Greed was just trying to get a moan out of her.
_____________________________________
Zoe was not as loud or obnoxious as Greed but he did get a hum of approval from her. She said in a low voice, "You better not be doing this to win... because you are too good at this and I'm gonna expect it a lot more from now on.." she said it with a grin to show she was mostly joking. But Greed was good at massage when he wanted to be.
_____________________________________
"And if I am?" He kissed her head, his fingers drifting down her arms to the tips of her fingers. "I'm winning aren't I?" He whispered his fingers grazing her wrist. He looked over to Jonah with a fat grin. Nothing better than seeing the Virtue squirm with envy.
_____________________________________
She smiled with her eyes closed, liking his soft touch, her hands turning palm upwards so he could link his fingers with hers after he played with her wrist. She opened her eyes a little at his question and saw him looking at Jonah with a shit eating grin. She gave Greed a wry look, "Winning with me or winning over him?" since Greed seemed to think he and Jonah were competing.
_____________________________________
"Can't it be both? It feels pretty fantastic." He held her hands for just a little bit and then kneeded her shoulders with his thumbs pressing in. There were other places he wanted his hands to go, but they had company. Though the audience might leave if he saw something. "But with him here there are other places I want to touch," he whispered in her ear, his fingers rolling and massaging in ways he could elsewhere. She still hasn't snapped and wouldn't as long as the Tokyo Tower was looming over them.
_____________________________________
"No... cause it's embarrassing." but her eyes closed when his hands started kneading again. At his whisper, she turned a pretty shade of pink and coughed, "That would be a loophole... a very underhanded loophole." since the rules were no sex and no kisses on the mouth, but she and Greed lived without sex for a very long time.. they were creative.
_____________________________________
"The question is could you stand it?" She couldn't he knew that. That was the whole point. "My fingers are obviously magic," he tapped them in her shoulders, sliding down her arms again.
Samson jumped down from Jonah's lap indicating he was hungry. So while Jonah was busy in the kitchen, Greed took a gamble with one hand slipping out of view.
_____________________________________
"They're also totally evil.." she said slowly as she eyed his hands sliding down and when he went under her dress, she jumped with a surprised squeal, pushing at his arm as she hissed, "Are you crazy!?" turning bright red. Jonah was just a few feet away!
_____________________________________
"Yeah, I am..." He laughed dragging the blanket off the back of the couch to fall over them. "Now he can't see anything." Jonah was too busy with the barking Samson. Greed tried again this time more boldly, even if she pushed him away.
_____________________________________
Even with the blanket covering, Zoe was not willing to let Greed paw at her nethers with Jonah about to walk back in at any moment. She grabbed his wrist and squeaked, "Chance!" she kept a firm grip but he could easily break out of it. She gave him a wide eyed look with raised brows saying in a harsh whisper, "If you don't stop....I'll... slap you!" she really didnt know what else to say, he was short circuiting her brain. She loved when he touched her but she was not into the kink of doing it in front of Jonah!
_____________________________________
"He might enjoy it," that shit eating grin back on his face. He didn't think she would slap him, but he was over estimating the situation.
_____________________________________
"I don't want him to!" she hissed at him, mortified at the thought of Jonah catching them and then on top of that, enjoying it! When felt Greed's fingertips on the inside of her thigh, she did exactly what she said she would and slapped him across the face.
_____________________________________
"Owe!" It was enough to pull his hand back so he could rub the skin even though she didn't really leave a mark. Jonah had heard and didn't even want to know what was going on. He stepped around the corner from the kitchen, having our down a fresh water bowl for the puppy. Really all he wanted to do was go to bed.
_____________________________________
Zoe looked in shock back at Greed, her hands covering her nose and mouth before she dropped them and winced, "I'm sorry!" she put her arms around his neck and turned in his lap to cuddle him, "I panicked.." since she had heard Jonah moving around closer to the door.. she reallly couldn't even explain to the Virtue what had happened when he showed back up.
_____________________________________
She's already done it though. Usually she slapped him he did something bad. Did this mean he'd done something bad? It was always a blow to a man's pride when they heard that crack of a hand like a whip against the cheek. "Everything alright?" Jonah asked, skeptical to sit back down. He didn't want to be in the middle of this and if he influenced Greed in any way she would hate him.
_____________________________________
She looked meekly at Jonah, "Yeah.. just.. no, it's fine." she said quickly before turning back to Greed and putting her hands on his shoulders, "Chance? I'm sorry, I just.. lemme see." she tried to get him to remove his hand from his cheek even tho the slap was not that hard and they both knew it.
_____________________________________
He kind of didn't know what to think. He was a stunned puppy that had gotten smacked for no reason. He wasn't sure what he felt about it. If it made him mad or horny. He also thought if he hammed it up she might break the rules. The shock was not fake.
_____________________________________
She winced again because he looked catatonic almost.. but at least his hand was down. She inspected his cheek which wasn't even red, "It's fine..." but she put her arms around his neck and hugged him, pressing her lips to the spot where she slapped him, not even caring that Jonah was sitting there confused.
_____________________________________
"You slapped me. Usually you slap me when you're mad. Are you mad?" He was confused as usual when it came to these things. He hadn't thought she'd actually do anything. He thought she'd be putty in his hands.
Jonah took this opportunity to leave before he did something she would hate him for. "Let me know if I need to kick anyone out."
_____________________________________
She shook her head, still a lemur around his neck, "No, I'm not mad.. I just.. wanted you to stop before you know..." her eyes drifting to the side where Jonah was to indicate him coming back. "And you wouldn't so I... panicked and did the only thing I could think of." she wrinkled her nose, "It worked tho, didn't it?" he had stopped immediately. She looked at Jonah, "No, we're fine. Jonah, it's okay, sit down."
_____________________________________
Jonah was stuck in the middle. Always like the third wheel. "You mean we will actually finish the movie?" He sat reluctantly, while Greed still played Bambi eyes of confusion.
_____________________________________
"Of course, there's not that much left anyway." the movie was still playing and she gave Greed a sad puppy look and kissed his cheek again, apologizing once more before bringing the blanket up around them so she could snuggle him.
_____________________________________
Greed was milking every minute he could but she still aimed for his cheek which meant he was not winning this bet. He huffed like a child when she snuggled in his arms. "Im not a cushion."
_____________________________________
She narrowed her eyes at him, "Fine... then I'll sit elsewhere." and all her warmth, her yellow, her hair, her skin, was suddenly gone from him and she scooted to her corner of the couch, the blanket still around them both tho.
_____________________________________
Greed's mouth hung open as she distanced herself. "Why are you over there?" He tugged three blanket off her.
_____________________________________
She stayed put in her corner even as the blanket was being taken off, "Because you don't want me to snuggle you." she said matter of factly.
_____________________________________
"I never said that." Now she was closer to Jonah. "You gonna snuggle that?" He waved his hand up towards the stinky Virtue.
_____________________________________
"You said you weren't a pillow, it means you didn't want to be snuggled." she made a face at him as he gestured at Jonah, "No, I'm snuggling myself."
_____________________________________
When she refused he grabbed her by the ankles to drag her back over to him. He wasn't going to have a couch length distance between them. Because the longer she sat near Jonah the more she would stink and then he'd have lost this bet if theirs. Or did she forget?
_____________________________________
She let out a yelp of surprise as he dragged her over to him and she ended with an oof! on top of him. She narrowed her eyes at him, debating slapping him again. She asked quietly, eyes stilll narrowed, "Did you bring me back here because you're jealous or because you wanted me with you?"
_____________________________________
He had to think about it a minute. "Do you want to stink?" Greed didn't want a Virtue smelling gifriend when she threw herself at him later. And she would because once Jonah was out of here she wouldn't be able to control herself.
_____________________________________
She looked super confused, "Uh, what? Are you saying I smell?" she did not look happy about that... earlier he was saying she smelled like an island breeze.
_____________________________________
"No I'm saying the longer you sit over near that the more You're going to smell like a Virtue." Jonah just let Samson go to hop up on the couch so he could lick Greed in the face with all his prideful glory.
_____________________________________
"Oh so you're being so noble and rescuing me from--" then the puppy's tongue licked Greed's face and she started to laugh, "I think he has a crush on you." and she ruffled the dogs fur.
_____________________________________
Greed pushed at the puppy making him hit the floor with a yelp when he couldn't stay on the couch any longer. But just like any young child the dog bounced back and popped up for more attention. "Greed, don't shove him." Jonah scolded. He wasn't going to stand for Greed destroying something else. The poor dog already had a disadvantage, he didn't need to be reminded of the owner of his past that had beat him. "You lay a finger on that dog in an aggressive way I will kick you out." Jonah was being serious. There was no reason for his temper tantrum.
_____________________________________
Zoe frowned at Greed and leaned down and picked Samson up who bounced in her arms. She was kinder than Jonah but told Greed, "If you push him like that, he'll think you're playing with him and want to lick you more. He's like having an Ava, he doesn't understand. If you don't want him around you, tell me and I'll keep him away." but it was clear from the look on her face and her tone that she didn't like watching him be cruel to the puppy, it reminded her of his mean side and it put that wariness back in her eyes which had lately been less and less present.
_____________________________________
Greed folded his arms. Suddenly the entire room was coming down on him. He eyed the puppy with serious eyes that said don't lick me in the face. Maybe he'd warm up to the thing, but seeing her cuddle it too instead of him made him mad. Samson snuggled his nose into Zoe's arm, looking out with his one eye with a whimper. He was wary of Greed because she was. The puppy felt safe with her, with Jonah but this guy was always so distant. He'd not been nearly that mean to George's happy-go-lucky corgis, but those were George's. This puppy threatened his attention because it kept Zoe away from him.
_____________________________________
Zoe's face looked sadder than the puppy's when Greed became even more obstinate. Her big brown eyes blinked a few times and looked away from Greed to the puppy, scratching him behind his ears. "He's small and helpless and he just wants to be with you.." she said quietly but she could have been talking about herself. "Kicking him will just make him afraid and every time he sees you, that's what he'll think of." or did Greed not get that hurting things Zoe liked made her sad?
_____________________________________
Jonah was glad in some way this was coming out. Zoe acted as if Greed was this perfect boyfriend, but he was forged in the fires of hell to create chaos. He wasn't sweet, he wasn't kind, he was this. He was destructive. But Jonah sat quiet because the moment Greed lashed out Jonah would forcefully use himself to hold Greed back.
Greed knew the more he pushed it away the more she was clinging to the puppy. He wouldn't win anything out of this. "I don't like the slobber," he said. He was juggling the idea of putting his hands out or pouting in her room like a child kicking and screaming so that he could have her to himself.
_____________________________________
Zoe kissed Samson's head, "I know. But he doesn't understand that, in the future, I'll keep him away from you." but now Zoe was a little distant from Greed, there was some space between them because the last taste in her mouth was his cruel side, not his sweet gentle side that she loved, the one that was good to her. But she put the pup down, who was totally fine now since he had the memory of a goldfish, and after running in a circle, he ran right to Jonah, crashing into him before jumping like a hyper nut to be picked up, all of it bringing a smile to Zoe's face as she watched it.
_____________________________________
Now Greed was the big bad wolf. He felt like it. The whole room felt like it was closing in on him. She had that wall up that he hadn't seen in months. Right now he needed to get out of the room or he was going to explode. "I have a headache. Finish the movie." There was a lot of jealousy floating around in here. He stood up off the couch heading into her room because it was his fort. He crawled into the floor by the window and opened it up so he could breathe. There was something weird floating in the air but it was too faint to pinpoint. He was being too selfish to see anything. His little game had backfired, now he was evil. Jonah was making damn sure of showing her that. But it wasn't just Jonah, Greed had done it on his own.
_____________________________________
Zoe was starting to blame herself. Maybe if she hadn't slapped Greed, he wouldn't have taken it out on the dog. A few minutes went by and the movie was on it's final scene when Zoe excused herself from Jonah's presence and went into her room. She shivered at the cool air floating in and walked barefoot over to Greed by the window, sitting next to him. She wasn't going to reject him because of what he was, she'd promised herself she wouldn't. This meanness was unfortunately part of him.
_____________________________________
It was the only way Greed could breathe. Something was around that he didn't like and it made him defensive. Her slap just triggered the reaction. It didn't make it her fault, and Greed would always blame the Virtue. He didn't turn to look at her as she joined him. "I feel funny..." He rested his chin on his arms as he folded up his knees to his chest.
_____________________________________
He always felt gross when he was around Jonah too much so she assumed it was that. "How can I make it better?" she asked softly. She didn't want to touch him just yet even though her instinct was to just wrap her arms around him.
