WHO: Zoe & Greed WHEN: Past & Present AU WHERE: Botched wedding dinner rehearsal, Madison WHAT: Greed wins Zoe over.. sort of WARNING: None Note: The log reads backwards
She couldn't help but giggle as that blush spread down to her toes and she put her arms around his neck as he kissed her. This was a moment of pure bliss and she hadn't been happy in a long time. It couldn't last... but for the moment it was perfect.

Did they have any future here? Was this a fling? She broke the kiss and looked in his eyes, asking out of breath, "Do you think you'll ever want to get married? Yes or no. Just say yes or no. And be honest..." she just needed to know before they went further. She needed to know what she was going into. And she needed him to be honest.

She lifted her head up and noticed the blankets and pillows and for brief moment the spell was starting to break as she pointed a finger and wiggled it around, "Did you plan this..."

He got her into the house, shutting the door one handed as he walked back until he tripped on the blanket of his own little cot on the floor. There were a million pillows on the floor and tons of fluffy blankets to keep comfortable, and he'd completely messed it up when he broke that kiss and lost his footing.

It wasn't like last time where he didn't know why she wanted to keep kissing, something was pulling him to her mouth and he couldn't get enough of it.

He gave her what she wanted, his mouth and those kisses he seemed so well trained in giving. He made women melt on purpose, but this one he wanted to melt. He remembered how she claimed he was so horrible at sex, and fuck he was determined to prove her wrong. More than that, he wanted to prove to himself that he could have this.

She was clinging to him just as hard, and even when he let go of her mouth he hung back only a little to see if she'd follow him down that road to hell. He was completely fucking up her life. He knew it, but he had to have this.

So he opened up his trunk and started sifting through the mound of stuff inside. He banged around so much, Zoe probably thought he had a shovel and rope ready to tie her up, but it was only a drop cord. Greed didn't really understand why he wanted to decorate the trees out in the yard, it seemed almost asinine to do, but he just felt like he needed to. Maybe fate would get tired of Zoe sitting in the car.

He didn't want to pander to this idea that he was going to murder her yet, the damned girl was mental. "Fine! Stay in the car." Now his surprise was ruined and he stumbled to the door to unlock it and turn on the lights. He didn't even have anything inside yet, just whatever the previous owners left. He left the door hanging open, not expecting her to follow. She couldn't run anywhere either. The nearest thing was a lake and miles of land.

But once he had it and plopped it in her lap he buzzed off again. Slowly but surely they got further from he city and out into the suburbs of New York. "Don't get anything on these leather seats." He had his pet peeves, and a clean car was one of them.

She sniffled and wished she had a tissue as she said, "What do you care, you can't fix it and you wouldn't if you could, you just want to see my life fall apart because you're bored or something." she didn't understand why he kept popping back into her life now.

I should be really offended---in fact I am---that suddenly I have some kind of superhuman powers that possess you and instantly turn you salivating over me...." Okay so he kind of did have those kind of powers, but he had to latch onto something greedy within someone first. It had to be there. The seed for him to let it grow. And while he had the choice to do that right now he chose not to. He wiggled his fingers. "My pheromones aren't working today. Sorry."
"Such a fancy meal. Any reason it's a bust?"

With little roasted chickens and tomato bisque and.. and.. this french pastry cart for dessert that has hand made eclairs." she sniffled as she cried her way through describing the food, she'd gotten to pick the menu, one of the few things that was her choice and her husband to be wasn't even here for it.

"I told you I'm taking myself out for dinner. Though by the looks of it, it seems you need to join me." He nudged her gently with his elbow. "You have to eat too."

Why was she rejecting him so hard? He messed up, yes, he fucked up real bad, but couldn't she see it? The universe was trying to tell her everything he was.

"I am not going to spring a leak!" she said but her voice was already watery. Just being next to him reminded her of everrrrrrrrrrrrrything she'd done with him and that she'd kissed another guy while being engaged. It brought up a lot of other things too. She turned her back to him as she turned to the side, okay she maybe she WAS going to cry, but she wasn't going to show him.

He pouted a little when she smacked his hand and flicked that same curl to watch it bounce. "What could possibly be wrong now?" She was getting married to the "best" guy ever wasn't she? Not that he wasn't planning to stop the whole sham in the first place, but this wasn't his doing right now. Those tears that were about to fall were not because of him. "Call me crazy, but you're not about to spring a leak because of me."
