"I wanna talk to her..." he said softly. The big lug missed her and wanted to cuddle her. He wanted her here with him, not dancing in front of drooling dogs. He wanted her thinking about him.

"There ya go again assuming without knowing. You need to stop that or your head will explode. We've been gone for what.. four hours? It's still daylight out, she doesn't have a REASON to worry." she mussed his hair and said, "They must have a computer downstairs we can use and a phone. Can google the strip joint and call her there, tell them its an emergency and get her on the phone."

"She won't even know I'm gone right now, let alone worry about me." The only time he'd seen a crack in her exterior was when Envy was getting knife happy. But she had shown some concern. And in that moment he missed her.

She gave him a look, "Ever consider asking her for them? Look, Evie will give you sex and love like it's water. But thoughts, deep stuff, she runs from it. You want it, then you work for it. And its hard work. You gotta keep trying, might take years. You don't give up. That's a relationship."
On Tue, Nov 3, 2015 at 10:14 AM, Lauren Christensen <prettykozi@gmail.com> wrote:
"I didn't say she was a gold digger. She won't give me any of her inner thoughts and I WANT them." He sounded almost obsessive about it, his hand clenching at the same time. He really wanted more. The things Zoe talked about that she had with Digger...he wanted those things, which may have been why he made fun of it to her so much. It was his way of diminishing it to make himself feel better.

"That I can't tell you, I'm not Evie." she shook her head, "You're not giving her enough credit and honestly you're making her sound like a gold digger. You're not the first rich guy to propose to her you know. She's had people ask before, with more money and she's always said no, she's never thought of marriage but she's marrying you. You wanna feel sorry for yourself and pick fights with her questioning her feelings, then maybe you don't want to get married and that's your own problem."

"But why pick me knowing exactly what I am? What made her choose me?" As if he'd given her the option. He was the fun ride and he was persistent. "Take out sex. Take out Paris. Take out spending money. She wouldn't have chosen me." He was't giving Evie the credit, but Zoe's holes from earlier were still sticking in place. It was going to take more than a reassuring talk to convince him.
On Tue, Nov 3, 2015 at 12:53 PM Lucky L. <neverluckymore@gmail.com> wrote:
"Yeah but you are selling your apartment and Evie said you already have a place in Paris." she started laughing, "You can't wrap her up in a blanket whenever you guys go out and you do know she's probably gonna dance in Paris even if she won't strip. Evie is... she's always been that fantasy for guys. Everyone looks at her and thinks about her. And men can feast on her with their eyes but you know, she picked you out of all of them. You got exclusive rights to do much more than see. Be honored and proud of that."
On Tue, Nov 3, 2015 at 9:50 AM, Lauren Christensen <prettykozi@gmail.com> wrote:
"I try. You know I don't sell this apartment there is no Paris." In that moment Greed was worried. If he didn't give Evie Paris or sex what was there? She'd leave him and flipped a switch inside that made him panic. "I dont want other men to fantasize or see her. They'll still feast on her with their eyes and shes mine now."1

"Well do you ask HER about things? That's kinda how a conversation works you know." she frowned, "You don't have to keep spending you know.. and if you let Evie still strip.. I mean she makes bank. And none of the guys get to touch her. It's not something I'd do but she's really good at it. One time a guy bought her a car as a tip but she doesn't drive so.."
On Tue, Nov 3, 2015 at 9:39 AM, Lauren Christensen <prettykozi@gmail.com> wrote:
"She doesn't ask me about things. You're right. We don't do anything other than sex and shopping. I'm practically broke and she doesn't even know it." He laughed but without someone to put a filter on his spending he could he wealthy and broke at the same time.

"Okay but you're good at drawing too." she rolled her eyes to the side, "My sister might have shown me her new tattoo.." she smiled at Greed, "It was really cute. I think you should have a bit more confidence in your skills. Art skills that is. And if you don't, you know they offer a lot of art classes in the city. They even have some in the park."

"Because sex I'm good at and I know I'm good at." At least thats what everyone made him believe.

She looked at him, "Why are you so dismissive of it? When it comes to sex, you won't shut up about how amazing you are at it and when it comes to art suddenly it's just 'doodling shit'?"
On Tue, Nov 3, 2015 at 9:09 AM, Lauren Christensen <prettykozi@gmail.com> wrote:
"Different things. Evie always calls me bunny, so I drew her a bunny." A bunny she'd gotten tattooed after. "I just doodle shit." He shrugged.

She smacked his arm lightly with the back of her hand, "Okay for what a boasting arrogant jerk you are, you have like zero self esteem. If you like to draw, then you're an artist. And guess what, artists create. So.... what do you draw?"
On Tue, Nov 3, 2015 at 9:01 AM, Lauren Christensen <prettykozi@gmail.com> wrote:
"I like to draw. I don't know if that makes me an artist." He didn't sit around with girls and talk. Not even with Evie.

Zoe leaned her back against the headboard and said, "Maybe they don't care about those things because you don't LET them care about those things. Do you even bother telling people hey I like zombies and video games and I like to draw. Or do you assume they won't care so you just don't say it." she looked at him curiously, "You're an artist?"
On Tue, Nov 3, 2015 at 8:39 AM, Lauren Christensen <prettykozi@gmail.com> wrote:
"I like a lot of things. I like video games. Zombies. I like to draw. No one cares about those things." They wanted the face, the body. They wanted a human dildo.

Zoe lowered her lashes in thought and then said, "Well I don't know... what are your hobbies? Or what do you like to do?" and she sat a bit more comfortably next to him, not quite so in his face anymore.

He looked into her baby seal eyes, they were different then Evie's. They were even a warmer brown. He just stared, his own eyes not as violent as earlier, but needy. She was giving him more of what he wanted. "Like what?"
On Nov 3, 2015 10:40 AM, "Lucky L." <neverluckymore@gmail.com> wrote:
"Maybe you can make choices to create things instead and see if that makes you feel better about yourself." cause he didn't seem to be bragging about his destroying people. In fact, for how arrogant he was, he kinda had low self esteem..
On Tue, Nov 3, 2015 at 7:37 AM, Lauren Christensen <prettykozi@gmail.com> wrote:
"You should hate me. I destroy people." Those thick lashes of his falling over his cheeks. She made him feel a once of good by admitting she didn't hate him, and he believed her. He wanted more of that.

She said with a sigh, 'I don't hate you. You drive me NUTS. But hate is a strong word and you haven't done anything to deserve my hate. Strong annoyance yes." she'd hated very few people in her life, hate was exhausting.

"But you hate me." They couldn't get through an hour without fighting. He didn't know why. It was becoming their ritual odd dancing around each other.
On Nov 3, 2015 12:25 AM, "Lucky L." <neverluckymore@gmail.com> wrote:
She tilted her head to the side, her bob fanning out as she did, "I don't think Evie is marrying you cause you're a Sin. And me? Honestly, I forget most of the time you're a sin. I just see you. Annoying. Asshole. You." but she smiled to show she didn't mean it in a cruel way, she was saying she just saw him. She fought with him and talked with him as a person, not a Sin. She hated him and liked him for way more than his sin.
On Mon, Nov 2, 2015 at 9:23 PM, Lauren Christensen <prettykozi@gmail.com> wrote:
If she looked into his eyes she'd she the woundedness of a child. It would take time to mend what she'd torn down. "What's it matter if neither of you see anything more than the Sin?" He whispered. He was cracking to her comfort just a littleand still wanted to retaliate before admitting to it.

She leaned in towards him, her face an inch from his cheek, "Sometimes we need someone to not be soft and gentle.." and she smiled comfortingly, "You might be just what she needs, Greed. There's a reason you two found each other. I really do believe that."
On Mon, Nov 2, 2015 at 9:14 PM, Lauren Christensen <prettykozi@gmail.com> wrote:
"I'm not soft or gentle about anything." Unless he was pretending to get something he wanted. Her insistence still did nothing to fill that hole that she'd jabbed in him. Greed would never deserve those things.
On Nov 3, 2015 12:09 AM, "Lucky L." <neverluckymore@gmail.com> wrote:
She sighed again, "That's Evie.. she's been like that since our parents died. She doesn't let anyone in but you know, with time you might get her to open up to you. She needs a soft but persistent touch. She'd never had a guy around long enough for anyone to get a shot. But you're marrying her. So you got a lifetime." she shoved the tissue in his hand and said, "The sex isn't bad and the relationship isn't anywhere close to perfect. It's just different from yours. You can hate me for it if it makes you feel better."
On Mon, Nov 2, 2015 at 9:06 PM, Lauren Christensen <prettykozi@gmail.com> wrote:
"She doesnt let me in you know. Even when I want to." Greed didn't have people that let him talk or be anything else. He dismissed her tissues, it just made him feel like a baby. "Out of the two of us I guess you are the one with the more perfect relationship, bad sex and all. And I hate you for it." Her reassurance wasn't mending the bandaid she'd just ripped off. Evie wouldn't even worry about him when he didn't pick up his phone. Greed was just flip flopping like a fish out of water. He didn't know what would make him feel better. He was sufficating again like when he was in the water. Only this time he wasn't coming up for air and he he hated feeling so shit.

Oh god.. was he.. crying? She was kinda shocked. And it made her feel bad... she didn't mean to make the big baby cry. She sighed and pulled a tissue from the kleenex box on the nightstand and held it out to him, "I really doubt your Sin has much to do with it.. I've met a lot of guys that are just.. like that. It's a personality thing." she wasn't sure what to do or say but was just honest in the end, "Well I'm glad she makes you feel good in non-sex ways. I'm.. I'm happy you two have each other and I'm sorry that what I said made you upset. I'm not you and I'm not her so I don't know what your guys relationship is actually like, only you two know that."

The more she spat at him the more it made his insides curl up and twist around. "I can't help what I am!" And now he was leaking from his eyes woth that horrible feeling of self-destruction and worthlessness. "It's not my fault I'm this thing!" As if he could strip himself of his sin. "It's not just her exterior." Hed seen something in her eyes that made him feel squishy inside. But Evie closed him off in some ways to seeing much else sometimes. "She made me feel good in ways that aren't sex you know. I didn't want anyone else to have her." But he didn't know anymore now, because Zoe had poked holes in it and his confidence in himself was slipping. Why would Evie want that? Why would anyone?
On Nov 2, 2015 11:41 PM, "Lucky L." <neverluckymore@gmail.com> wrote:
Zoe's face clouded with confusion and then anger and hurt. She sat up and said, "Are you describing yourself or my sister? Because from what I know, YOU wanted HER. You chased after her. You wanted her not for her mind or personality but her BODY. You wanted a great fuck and you got it. You think I don't know why you proposed to her? She told me you wanted her to quit stripping and she said not till she was married and suddenly you're popping the question. That's what she is to you, a seductive exterior, an empty piece of candy you couldn't be bothered to get to know. She does love you. She's a flake and totally self involved and irresponsible but she does love you and I dunno why. You're such a self obsessed drama queen that you can't even see that the biggest complaints you have right now are all shit that YOU'RE doing too." it was clear from her tone and her actions that he was not a seductive exterior or candy to her. She saw him, all the ugly parts in him too and she was still sitting there instead of running away, she wasn't scared to deal with it and she was making him deal with it too.

His lips quivered for a response, so angry that he wanted to explode with tears and every other emotion under the sun. He wanted to strangle her. She made him so volatile. Made him question this perfect thing he had and taint it. That's all he was? Just this piece of meat. And hed drove out here to bait her for the same attention to make her admit she was jealous. Now he had it, her bitterness and jealousy all in his face and it just made him feel worse! Because she made it seem that while what she had with Digger wasn't perfect that it was better than what he had with Evie and it upset him.
"That's all I am to any of you...." and he sounded so crushed. "Just this seductive exterior with nothing else inside. An empty piece of candy that makes you sick at the end. Something destructive. Something you grow to hate." And at that moment he didn't feel worthy of ever being loved because thats all it was, his delusional fantasy.

She opened her eyes then, "I'm not Evie, if Evie says she loves you then I guess she does. And don't lay this on Evie okay? Have you ever ASKED her out to dinner even? Honestly I think you two deserve each other. Everything is always about feeling good. Love by the way isn't always great. Love hurts and its painful sometimes and relationships are hard work. You guys and your perfect relationship with perfect sex and perfect wedding and perfect moving to a new country because it's fabulous.." okay maybe she was a little bitter but said, "I hope for your guys sake it all stays happy and perfect but... I dont know, it just seems like... like... eating low fat chocolate cake cause you can have the whole thing instead of full fat delicious pure chocolate cake cause you can only have a slice."

Greed's breath began to quicken, his annoyance with her just bubbling to rage. "You said once Evie loved me!" He was a child stamping his foot because he'd believed something so faithfully and she was breaking it. The fantasy of a myth or the tainted reality of something he wasn't allowed to have. She made him question his own importance to her sister or what they did with their time. That's all Greed was to anyone. A machine. A sex machine and nothing else. No one had ever made him believe he was anything else until now.

"The sex I have is not dull. I don't sleep with guys if I'm imagining they're someone else, that's just rude." she snuggled the pillow and said, "And you totally ignored what I said about your sex life so I'm guessing I'm right. I know you and my sister go at it like animals but is that all you do? Digger and I went to the movies on Friday, we go for walks in the park, out to dinner... I doubt you and my sister have ever seen anything outside of your apartments. Except for shopping."

"I am sure that the sex you have is so dull. You are probably relieved when it's over." He wiggled on the bed, the towel around his waist starting to loosen. "I bet you even imagine he's someone else." He wasn't going to dignify her with an answer to his sex life because it was fantastic.

She squeezed her eyes shut to try to tune him out but he wasn't letting her. She hummed and said, "You know, this is a nice hotel... nice room... warm... cozy.. I should tell Digger about this place and we can make a weekend trip out here." she still hadn't seen he was practically naked.

Zoe was feeling very nice and warm and she kept her eyes closed, half asleep even as he paraded around, her legs were peeking around from the slit in the fluffy robe, a reminder she was buck naked underneath. She knew she should ask him if he knew anyone that could help them but she honestly didnt have the energy. This bed was super comfy.... and she wasn't even thinking of him, just kinda enjoying the bed and pillow and sheets and robe.

He took as long as he needed to feel comfortable again. Clean skin, completely stripped of that awful beaded sand.
He returned to the tiny room in nothing more than a towel wrapped around his waist. He didn't care if he paraded around half naked. It was her punishment, and maybe then he'd get what he wanted out of this in the first place.

She stuck her tongue out at the closed door, he was such a child! Ugh... now she was stuck here with him. Evie couldn't even come and get them, she didn't have a car. A taxi would be too much. There was a bus service that ran back to the city she was sure.. but then they'd have to leave his precious car here. Which would get towed. Her head started to lower along the headboard until she finally scooted down and rested it on the pillow. She was just gonna rest her eyes for a minute while there was some peace and quiet in the room...

She was being a self-entitled brat. What she couldn't talk to him now? After she threw his keys into the ocean? That was all on her. She was going to blame him too when SHE was the one that baited him? Look where that got them? So, he did the most mature thing he could do. He went to the bathroom for his turn and slammed the door.

Zoe dried her hair and she didn't have any clothes to step into so she put on one of the big fluffy white bathrobes as she came back out, looking very snuggly and warm. She sat on one side of the bed and ignored Greed.

Another customer walked in in a hurry slamming into Greed, which gave him the opportunity to snatch his wallet. The finely dressed gentleman snubbed the Sin in his hurry to get to his conference. He wasn't paying attention to the fact that he had been robbed.
Greed slapped the wallet down on the counter. "Found it yet?" Someone else wouod be fitting the bill.

Zoe's mouth dropped open, "You don't... You spent god knows how much obscene money on that fancy car of yours and you didn't think to pay $50 a year for AAA?" she let out another frustrated noise because it was SO typical of Greed to do something boneheaded like that. Her phone was gone, she didn't know Digger's number by heart, her grandma was out with her boyfriend and Evie never looked at her phone when she was working. "I can't afford to stay here." she said through clenched teeth, hating to admit the idea of a room was nice but she'd never be able to pay him back for it.

"Need a room..." Greed told the guy behind the counter. It was a busy weekend he insisted, so rooms this time of the week were not going to be easy if there were any left. They happened to have a convention going on.

She caught his arm but was glad he didn't fall, they'd both go down otherwise. Her backpack was missing so she was pantsless and said, "So what? I'm pretty sure you would have had a crisis over it. You're a smug asshole but I don't think you're cruel by nature." and she shivered a bit wondering where the bathroom was but everyone there seemed too snooty to even look at her when she tried to ask.

He followed her not because he wanted to be anywhere near her, but because now he had sand all in his clothes in places he didn't know one could get sand in. He was mad at her. "So what if I had...." but she knew better. He didn't like hurting people like that. He didn't like killing them unless it was a last resort and he had to in order to get what he wanted. The dark Greed back there had just needed to let loose the energy.
Once they were inside the hotel, barefoot Greed nearly slipped on slick flooring. Twice in one day he'd nearly died in Zoe's presence.

She stood up slowly and said, "I had to!

He could barely hear her voice and it was only after that horrible pounding into his chest where he swore he felt ribs crack that he started to come too.

He didn't answer her, he was still in that deep dream of falling....falling...falling deeper into the water. He was immortal, but it didn't mean he couldn't die. He just wouldn't come back the same person.

She struggled to drag him onto the sand and collapsed next to him out of breath. She looked at him and wrinkled her nose, "Oh come on... tell me you're breathing. You're okay.. you don't need CPR..." she put her head on his chest to see if he was breathing.

He was already swallowing too much water, suffocating himself in the ocean until she drug him out. Now he was the one that would be covered in sand once she drug him back to the beach. His lips were blue and he felt like he was drowning still.

Zoe looked for Greed and then finally dove under and saw him, he wasn't even trying to swim! She grabbed the back of his pants and pulled as hard as she could to get him to the surface. The crazy guy was still bobbing around looking for the keys too.

Not only were his car keys on that ring but his soon to be sold apartment and a ton of storage bins all over the country! Sure he couldn't take his yellow beast to Paris with him, but it didn't mean he wasn't going to try. And she had just tossed them away as if they meant nothing! What the hell was she trying to do? How were they going to get back to the city?
Despite not being able to swim, the big bad Sin dived under to try and find his keys which were long gone by now.

Something in Zoe's head clicked as she watched Greed dive in... and kinda... flop around. "Wait... YOU CAN'T SWIM??" she shouted at him as she waded in a bit deeper going after his fat dumb ass.

The crazed man wasn't the only lunatic that jumped into the ocean. Greed did as well after screaming at her. He just didn't swim as well as most.

Zoe ran as fast as she could, her naked legs shining with sunlight and spray from the surf as she kicked sand up and had no idea what she was doing. She could hear one of the guys close behind her and she was feeling a pain in her side so she went knee deep in the water and turned to see the crazy guy still coming for her. "Fetch!" she yelled and hurled the keys as hard and as far as she could into the water, them getting swallowed up by a wave. The asshole could go diving.

"Zoe!" Greed snapped. He saw that look on her face and he knew something was up. She had a plan in mind, something he would hate. He went after her but so did the stranger.

Zoe's bravado faltered a bit as the guy looked like he was ready to tackle her. "I... haven't thought that far ahead." and she kept moving back while the man moved forward and then Zoe just broke out into a run. She had an idea... but she didn't think Greed would like it.

"And what are you planning to do with my keys?" Greed put his hands on his hips as zombie man's eyes followed ready to pounce.

Zoe glared at Greed, "Making sure your track record of murders at the beach stays at one." because she was pretty sure Greed didn't enjoy killing whoever he did at the beach. There was no way he'd be in such turmoil just VISITING a beach if that had been the case. She jangled the keys at the guy again, "Come and get 'em." and she moved even further away from Greed to lure the rabid man away.

In an instant Zoe intercepted. Greed had intent on making this guy pay for any offense he made. Greed wanted him to steal...he wanted to destroy someone.
Greed's eyes snapped towards Zoe. "What are you doing?"

Zoe could see the guy was gunning for Greed's pocket for that shiny tempting keyring. He was acting like he was high on drugs. But Greed had mentioned killing someone at the beach before and like hell that was happening again on her watch. So before either man could do anything, she snatched the keyring from Greed's pocket since it was already poking out and jangled it at the crazy guy. "You want these?" she asked and started walking backwards to try to lure the guy away from Greed.

"It's such a nice car...." he could feel his fingertips electrify at the thought of reaching for those keys. "Where did you get it from?" He wasn't paying Zoe any mind, he was staring at Greed's pocket, burning a hole in it. He was going to get those keys and take off in that car. Greed had possessed him with influence and he didn't know what had come over him. The need for something else to replace what he lost. It was too an intense feeling for him to overcome. Greed wasn't oblivious, he was just waiting, waiting for the guy to go for it so he could snap his wrist or choke him. He wanted to do both.

Zoe looked at the man and said, "It's a rental. You wanna keep walking? You already stole my blanket." trying to warn the guy to leave them alone. If things got physical, she didn't know what she would do.

The man felt himself a little crazy just standing near Greed and he didn't know what had come over him. He was a wreck and had nothing. He looked at Greed in his fancy clothes and fancy car and wondered what kind of life he had---obviously one a lot more successful than his own. He looked at Greed with crazy eyes as if he really wanted to take that car. They keys were in Greed's pocket, a keyring hanging out. They were easily within reach..."Hey man, that's a nice car." The man just didn't know who he was dealing with or who he'd gotten the urge to steal from.

Zoe said, "Hey!" as the man took her blanket and she lifted her arm up in protest and then dropped it again, fine maybe he needed it more than she did. The beach was her favorite place and Greed had managed to ruin that too. But he was in a dark way right now, not that smug asshole she hated. So despite hating herself for it, she marched back to him and just stared at him. She wasn't sure how to help him but.. it wasn't in her nature to abandon someone in need.

People always destroyed themselves because of him. It wasn't something he or any of his siblings could control, it was built into them. Their means of enticement were so strong, it even enticed themselves. He stumbled a few feet forward, the water grazing the tops of his feet and the edge of his
