He did tend to keep his deals faster. Especially when he had to seal it properly. He sat up, so that his eyes met hers instead of looking up, ready to seal it the best way possible. A kiss.

She softened at his words and nodded, feeling a little nervous because she still worried about him leaving her. She leaned down a little to look in his eyes, "It's a deal." because he tended to keep his deals more than his promises.

He fingered a line of freckles up her arm with his one free hand, tracing and connecting the dots. "No matter how much I fuck up, don't give up on me. Please? And I won't on you." He was a mess without her as much as he was with her. The only thing was he made more sense of the mess when he was with her.

She stayed put, never having any intention of going anyway not that he'd let her. She mimicked his expression with her own brows and said, "Not if they're just gonna be meaningless words. I rather you do it in a Greed way." she wanted him to show her he was sorry because it would mean more.

"You will not!" He clenched the hand she'd yet to untangle. Not that she could easily get away considering he was a rock holding her down to the couch. He crossed his brows tightly. "You want me to apologize don't you?" those kind of words were like cyanide in his throat, but he wanted to cause he was putting a rift between them.

She narrowed her eyes when he rolled his eyes at her, then she just casually looked away, "Well if you have nothing to say, maybe I should just go skype with Gabe... see how he's doing..." and she slowly started to untangle her fingers from Greed to try to jumpstart the snappage in his brain.

He rolled his eyes at her sarcasm, his lips thinning into a tight line. Even with those big tears rolling down his face, they did no damage at all. She was blowing him up with all her correctness. As if she were shaking a stern finger at a dog that had ripped her shoes to shreds. They were something important and now they weren't wearable. Wasn't that what he was doing. He just looked at her with those watery eyes that hated admitting she was right and that this wound up ball of feelings she was throwing at him was actually snapping something loose in his selfish brain.

Zoe knew when his tears were real, fake, and dramatic. This was just him being a drama queen. She looked so surprised and said, "Really? You sure? Cause lately it seems like you want me alone and you don't really care if I'm with you as long as I'm where you left me." like she was some toy he put down when he wasnt playing with it and expected it to still be in the same spot when he decided to pick it up again.

She kept flinging around the 'm' word. She was just as selfish! He was talking himself and---so he did turn on the crocodile tears but he didn't get the reaction he expected. "I don't want you alone I want you with me!" He thought he'd made that perfectly clear!
On Mon, May 25, 2015 at 10:41 PM, Lucky L. <neverluckymore@gmail.com> wrote:
She gave him a look with a slight smile, "I'm talking about me. Do you want me to be all alone if you don't want me to marry someone else?" she was not gonna let his crocodile tears move her (yet). He'd been ignoring her and taking her for granted so she was assuming here that he was going to dump her again at some point, so if he didn't want her with him, and not with someone else, did he really wish a life of loneliness on her? Besides, it was Greed, he didn't know how to be alone, she knew he'd find someone.

"I don't want to be alone..." it was selfish, yes. His big blue eyes looked like they might just burst into a flood, she was making him feel that emptiness. The same emptiness he'd left her with.

She held his hands in a good comforting grip and looked down at him, "Yeah? You rather I be all alone?" it was a pitiful apology he was offering and she wanted him to really understand what he'd been doing to her lately.
On Mon, May 25, 2015 at 7:16 PM, Lauren Christensen <prettykozi@gmail.com> wrote:
"I don't want you to marry someone else..." it was his way of saying he was sorry, because the idea of her not ever being able to see him terrified him. He squeezed her hands, his breath shuddering at that nightmare.
On May 25, 2015 10:04 PM, "Lucky L." <neverluckymore@gmail.com> wrote:
She was surprised he said all that and said, "Well... if you ignore me and treat me like you have been then yeah, maybe. If I did get married and have kids, I wouldn't see you anymore because it'd be unfair to my husband cause I'd still be crazy about you. But to be honest... there's no one I rather have those things with than you." and he knew that. It was why they were so good and so tragic, she wanted a normal life and she decided to fall in love with the one guy who could guarantee she'd never get it.

"And the same is gonna happen to you? You'll get married, have kids and I won't see you. Thats what being human means and I can't be that for you." Greed lashed out in his own way when he was hurt, and right now it was Digger abd Zoe on his list. He was getting into that deep Greed mode and she'd have to fish him out. Just thinking of being alone made him depressed. Not alone like he was the month he and Zoe were apart, but to not have her anymore....

"Not by choice, Greed... but that's what happens with friends sometimes. Look at me and Gabe, he was my BEST friend but then I started dating you and got busy with that and then he got a job in LA and we went from super close to an occasional skype call." she squeezed his hands, "They don't disappear, life just happens and maybe you don't spend as much time together but you do still care about the person and make time for them. But think of it this way, if you spent all your time with Digger, then when would you see me?"
On Mon, May 25, 2015 at 6:10 PM, Lauren Christensen <prettykozi@gmail.com>wrote:
"He's gonna move away from me isn't he?" He'd never had a best friend before. Not like this. "I've never had a best friend before. I don't want it to disappear." Zoe was his friend first, but to have a guy around that could stand his company for longer than a few hours. That was gold for Greed.

"Then you should have picked people who would just worship you to be your girlfriend and best friend." she wiggled her hands to get his to settle on top of hers so she could thread their fingers together, remind them they were together, not she his prisoner. "I am your girlfriend so you are first in my life for time and attention. BUT Digger is not your girlfriend, he is your best friend and he will get married and have babies one day, and you will never be his first priority and you need to be okay with the fact that you will always be important to him but you won't be the MOST important."

She did what she was best at. Explaining things to him in a way that he could understand. He was going to lose them both if he didn't learn how to work with the changes. "I just don't like change I'm not making myself."
On May 25, 2015 8:02 PM, "Lucky L." <neverluckymore@gmail.com> wrote:
"That's what life does, change. My life was simple before you came walking into it." but she was teasing. She sighed and looked at his chest, "Greed... I'm with you. I'm yous. And Digger.. is your best friend. But if you spend all your time trying to keep us both on your shelf, then you won't have any time to enjoy either one of us, do you get what I mean?" he was driving himself nuts chasing after Digger and he was losing sight of Zoe which in turn made her upset and not want to spend time with him then.

Greed's hands loosely held on to her wrists. "Because hes part of us now. He's mine. And now he's mad at me. You're mad at me. It's breaking things up." He watched her hands, those pretty blue eyes focused. "Things are changing again."

"I didn't go off with him.. my dad invited him--" she paused and then looked down at him, "What changed again? Talk to me." she scratched his chest lightly since her hands were still plastered to him.

"I have two humans now. Sorry if I don't know how to juggle that. You went off with him and then its like everything changed again." Greed liked changes when he was the one making them. But like this, he felt out of control.

She rolled her shoulder halfheartedly to get his hand off but it felt nice to be touched, "Maybe that's it tho.. before you wouldn't have to think or mean to, it was just natural. You'd want to kiss me and be with me." she sighed, maybe he hadn't missed her, just missed her body like some high end body pillow, "I missed you so much this past month and now you're back and all I want to do is make out for a week straight and all you can do is talk about Digger."
On Mon, May 25, 2015 at 2:07 PM, Lauren Christensen<prettykozi@gmail.com> wrote:
His hand slid up one of her arms, feeling the chill she got when he did something sweet and innocent. "I don't mean to." Greed told her this was a process, and he was still feeling it out. He was trying to come back to the person she really loved, but he couldn't help but worry she really didn't love this guy quite as much.

She'd wished for this, this glimpse back into the man she fell in love with but she didn't know if it would last, if it was him or just a lapse of sanity. Her cheeks stayed red and she didn't squeeze but she did dig her nails into his chest for half a second, just enough to pinch cause he was a jerk. "You don't act like it." she countered. He used to make her feel cherished and desired and loved and now she felt like a broken toaster that he'd fiddle with when he had time.
On Mon, May 25, 2015 at 1:57 PM, Lauren Christensen<prettykozi@gmail.com> wrote:
He took hold of her hands and slapped them down on his chest. He was going to give her the handful she pretended not to want. "Go on. Squeeze." He kept his eyes glued to her red face. "You ARE my favorite person."

She turned red and took her hands off him, holding them up, "I am not!" she squirmed to try to get him off and said, "And you're ignoring what I said!"

"Are you trying to get a handful? Because I can give you a handful!" She was being a brat, but so was he. At least this way she wasn't able to run off. He had her grounded.

She shoved him again and then smacked his chest tho ugh he'd probably enjoy it, "I am not your favorite person, you don't treat your favorite person the way you've been treating me." okay so maybe she was a little pouty.

"Digger has the wrong holes. He's also missing what makes you my favorite person. So stop shoving me..." And he became a weight on her lap that she couldn't even budge. Her attempts were fruitless.

"You're busy being a dumbass too so you and Digger's lap would be very happy together." she put a hand over his face to stop him from looking at her like that and then moved her hand again to his huge body to try to shove him off (which was pointless), "Oh no, your favorite parts are with Digger." since he'd been so obsessed, she'd been feeling ignored.
On Mon, May 25, 2015 at 1:41 PM, Lauren Christensen <prettykozi@gmail.com> wrote:
"Digger's lap is busy being a dumbass." Greed was mad at him still, that was obvious because his words were clipped. "Yours is much more enjoyable. It has my favorite parts." He continued that puppy face waiting for her to give in. She wouldn't be able to resist it much longer.

She peeked down at him, she loved his hair fluffy and unstyled, "No..... not even a tiny bit." but of course she was lying, it was working more than a tiny bit. She squirmed when he wriggled again and she shoved at his shoulder, "Why don't you go lie down in Digger's lap?"
On Mon, May 25, 2015 at 1:14 PM, Lauren Christensen <prettykozi@gmail.com> wrote:
He opened his mouth slightly, licking those fat lips so that they'd shine. "Really? It doesn't? Not even a tiny bit?" He wiggled some more looking like he'd walked out of some fashion shoot, aside from his fluffy blonde hair that he hadn't styled yet.

She was surprised when she felt him lay in her lap and looked down at him. Ugh, he was handsome. She hated how good looking he was. But normally by now he'd throw a tantrum and leave or accept her decision and go sulk. She tried to keep a stern face and pointed a finger at his fat face, "Sammy tries this trick too and it doesn't work when he does it either." which was a big lie, she was a pushover and both her boys knew it.

Fine. She was going to play bratty princess. He then took the spot the shoes once had, draping himself across her lap so he was looking up and she'd have to look down at his determined, pretty, puppy face. He wiggled to get comfortable. Was she done being a brat?

Her eyes drifted to his ass as he walked by, he had such a cute butt... but she wouldn't look at him when he sat down next to her. Naked! He hadn't wandered around naked in the apartment in so long.. he used to in the beginning when he's sleep over, she'd have to beg him to at least put on boxers in case Gabe might suddenly come home. She did a bratty move and picked up her shoes and threw them across the room. Then she recrossed her arms and turned away from him.
On Mon, May 25, 2015 at 12:57 PM, Lauren Christensen <prettykozi@gmail.com> wrote:
He put his hands on his hips, those tiny hips with a quirked brow as she refused to move. He walked right past her so she got a good view of everything and sat down on the couch beside her. He had picked up her shoes and he dropped them in her lap. "Shoes. Now."
On Mon, May 25, 2015 at 3:51 PM, Lucky L. <neverluckymore@gmail.com> wrote:
"Or what?" she snapped at him and still sat there, arms crossed, bare feet because she wasn't going just because he said so. "Call Digger, Im sure he'd love to go with you." she was looking away and trying not to even peek at him cause his body was amazing and now was not the time for admiring it.

He kicked off his shoes, pants next to go. "You're out to dinner." He pointed a threatening finger at her. "Put your shoes back on." And he walked into the bathroom back and forth to his room for a new outfit but she was still sitting there. He stood there in nothing looking at her like she'd lost her mind.
On May 25, 2015 1:48 PM, "Lucky L." <neverluckymore@gmail.com> wrote:
"I didn't say it, you did, And you said it because you did do it," he did lie. She tried not to look at him as he started undressing because his body was a major distraction and she was still upset. "Why don't you take Digger instead," she said sarcastically and sat down on the sofa, she was not getting ready for dinner with her idiot boyfriend who wouldn't even acknowledge he was an idiot.

"I'm not denying it, but you don't call me that." It hurt more when she said it. "Because I made reservations when I got back to work. In fact," he started peeling off his shirt and tie. He had freshen up and change. "If we don't leave in half an hour we'll lose our spot." He was going about it his way. Fancy, nice spread with a delicate menu. He could order takeout and she'd be happy.

She turned around and looked at him from across the room, "Are you saying you aren't one?" she crossed her arms over her chest and said, "We were having lunch until you showed up and decided we weren't. Why should I believe that you'd keep your word about dinner? Tell me."
On Mon, May 25, 2015 at 10:02 AM, Lauren Christensen <prettykozi@gmail.com> wrote:
"You're calling me a liar?" His voice was heated. Sammy laid his ears back with a whimper. Why were his parents fighting again? "We are having dinner until you weren't here. I came home ro pick you up and then I'm the shitball?"

She turned to look at him, "We got back together THREE days ago, Greed. You told me you were ready to come home. You told me you missed me. You told me we were going to have lunch together today. Then you told me that we were going to have dinner together." she threw a hand up as she walked to her room, "Forgive me if I don't believe you considering everything else has been total bullshit so far."

She'd gone out with her dad. Had he brainwashed her or put her in a mood? "So, thats a no then? You're not going to eat dinner with me?"

She shrugged without stopping or turning around, "No, I didn't forget. I just figured since we were also having lunch and that wasn't important to stick to, then it applied to dinner as well." now he got to taste what he'd done to her at lunch.

She gave him a look, "You and I had a fight and instead of thinking maybe I'd left, you thought I was kidnapped." unbelievable. She shook her head and moved past him on the stairs to continue the trek up to the apartment, Sammy in tow. There was a time he used to worry she'd leave and now he was just so secure with their relationship that he was actually bored she bet.

She frowned, "I didn't hear it, Sammy saw some squirrels and was barking up a storm. Then it rang outside the building and I figured I'd call back whoever it was once we got inside the apartment." since she didnt want to be caught talking on the phone wit it getting dark, that was not being aware.

He was sweating under that suit he was so frantic. "Zoe!" His voice was raised but he sounded more worried than annoyed. "I've been calling you!"

Zoe could hear someone's running footsteps on the stairs but was surprised when the person who came barreling down them was Greed. She gripped the rail just in case they would collide. Sammy's tail wagging like a helicopter, tugging on his leash, his front paws doing grabby hands for Greed, jumping on him. Yes Zoe was annoyed with Greed still but he looked like such a mess, her first question was, "Hey, are you okay?"

Greed paced back and forth before just heading right back out. He came flying down the stairs nearly colliding with her and Sammy. His heart was practically clawing its way out of his throat.

Zoe was out and she didn't pick up her phone because she didn't hear it with the noise of the city. Besides, she was at their building and was going to make the long trek up to their apartment. She might be brave to go out with Sammy again but she was still kinda scared and didn't want to be in the dark alone.

Greed was still a frustrated mess when he got home. Worse was the eerie silence inside the apartment. Had someone kidnapped her and the dog? Why were people all up into his shit when he wanted to keep it for himself? Damnit. He looked around frantic, calling her phone when she'd left no indication of where she was going to be. Or where she was for that matter. It would be dark soon, she wouldn't have gone out without him would she?

It was weird.. getting along with her dad. It was weird having a dad. Like one that didn't leave her lying in the dirt while she got beat up. Or ditched her for hot sin ass. She didn't trust Theseus yet.. but she didn't strongly dislike him anymore either. She got home in the afternoon, and after emailing a resume to Theseus and again thanking him for the thought even if nothing came of it, she took Sammy for a nice long walk, this time avoiding the park and being very very aware of her surroundings. So by the time Greed came home, there was no Zoe and Sammy to greet him as usual, it was an empty apartment, a reminder of what his life was without the noisemakers in it.

Theseus had a soft smile on his face. He hadn't had one of those in some time, not one that made him feel good from the inside out. Finally, he was getting through to his daughter.

She smiled some and said, "Okay then.. I'll send you my resume if you need it and I'm available for an interview any time and remember, any job, the mailroom even is fine, it's great. Thanks again." and then she just gave an awkward wave and was off.

"I'd like that." He gave her the a genuine, warm smile. They both needed this didn't they? Being a figure in someones life was something he'd always run from. Now, he wanted to be a part of that, and he had to admit, he'd forgotten how much pride it gave him.

It was a first step, not too long ago she wasn't even talking to him and now they were sorta hugging. She stepped back and jammed her hands in her coats pockets again and nodded, "Yeah, for sure." she tried to offer a smile and said, "Hey, if I get the job, we could have lunch together whenever you're free." since she'd work in the same building but she assumed he'd be busy.

He patted her as well with an awkward response. Neither of them were comfortable, but he felt compelled to do something. "This was nice. Maybe again?" Theseus didn't realize maybe how much he needed someone in his life.

She gave him an odd look not entirely sure what he was doing and because it was getting awkward, she kinda leaned in and gave him a sorta hug with one arm, her hand patting his back and making it quick, "Thanks." definitely not a standard Zoe hug but it was something.

"What?" What did she see that he didn't? Poseidon was too busy trying to get his wife's attention to check in on the many buildings and companies he'd bought and sold off. This was just another branch, another office space he could add to his track record. Just another ship to destroy.

Then she frowned, this place looked familiar, "Oh.. shit." she said slowly. She'd been here before.

"I'll see what I can do..." she looked so much like an excited puppy. He'd hate to tell her no if they rejected the idea. "Poseidon doesn't work in this branch if you were worried." It was a relief for him as well. Ot was bad enough having to grovel to get the job back.

Her eyes were big as saucers as she said, "Yes!" looking pretty excited at the opportunity. "I'll work in the mailroom or whatevers needed. I mean I don't expect any special treatment. I just want to work." just cause she was the CEO's son's daughter didn't mean she expected an office or something. She wasn't afraid of hard work.

"I have some pull being the CEO'sson and all." He shrugged. "If I could, you'd take it?" He wanted to hear her say yes.

"Yeah, but have you ever seen a sad dolphin?" she countered with her brows raised high up. She gave him a look and stopped when he did, "You can do that? Just get me a job?" she tucked a strand of hair behind her ear, "I mean I'd take it, whatever it is." she'd been searching for such a long time, at this point the mailroom sounded great.

"Dolphins really don't make that much money." He laughed stopping to look at the revolving door to his office building. "I bet I could pull a few strings. Get you a desk job. Might be the mailroom, but it would be a job." If he were honest with himself he'd actually enjoy work a little better if it gave them a chance for bonding.

She leaned to the side as if his nudge was that powerful but it was in jest. "I want to be a dolphin but that's apparently not a career." she sighed, "I've worked in a salon, done lots of retail, and I'm pretty good at office stuff. I was a temp at Greed's ad agency for a few months."

"Waitressing is taxing and your hours are unpredictable. I wouldn't want you to waste your time scrubbing for tips." He doubted Greed would agree to that. "What can you do?" He nudged her arm with his elbow. "What do you want to do?" Very much like her earlier question to him.

She leaned her head back and went, "Uggggggggggggggggggggh." if that gave him any indication of how her job hunt was going. "There are no jobs. Or there are jobs but I'm not getting hired for them. Not even retail. I think I might cave and just try waitressing." which she wasn't looking forward to, she had a degree, she had experience, she could do more than get yelled at for not getting an order right.

"What about you and your job hunt?" If she was still pining after Greed when he came home like an idiot then she still had too much time on her hands. The girl needed to branch out.

She didn't want to ask about his living in the city or what, maybe he was gonna buy an apartment in Spain. She rather just leave things as they were instead of make them possibly worse. Or scare him off and god knew he spooked easy. "I'd like that too.. but not a lot of jobs there unless you're willing to work on the docks or something." and she wasn't exactly hefty.

That was a quick change of subject, but he supposed she had every right to divert it. "Something to do with the ocean. It's the only place I'm comfortable. Not cooped up in some stuffy office cutting my circulation off with this." And he jerked at his tie to make a point.

She glanced at himself when he mentioned a place to live, rubbing her lips together and then shaking her head, deciding not to ask. Instead she prompted again, "Sooo... you're immortal.. what do you wanna do for a job?"

"Yeah, but its very much not me." He laughed but there was no humor in it. "Its something to provide myself with so I can afford a place to live." He was still on a boat. While it was where he felt most at home, he had to show his efforts were there with her.

She had her hands in her coats pockets and looked more at the sidewalk than him, it was still awkward to be having bonding time. None of the men in her life were stable, they all had a tendency to drop her when they felt like it. "At least it's a job.." she said, since she was an unemployed loser. "What do you want to do long term? Tho I guess in your case that's relative.." and she frowned. Time wasn't really something immortals had to worry about.

"It's a desk job. Nothing fancy or something I want to do long term." The suit and tie thing wasn't really for him. If she paid attention, Theseus was more comfortable in a pair of jeans, a scarf and a henley shirt. It was casual, it wasn't so stuffy. The lunch had been a good one, it had given him another opportunity to actually get to know more about his daughter, who was more like him than either of them really realized.

Zoe was glad when her father agreed to have lunch with her and they went to a Greek restaurant, one of the actual sit down places that Greed would have hated since they served fish. Lunch was pleasant enough tho any mention of Greed made her scowl and look sad. Dumbass boyfriend. She did tell Theseus tho that yes, she had seen Greed, no she had no idea what to do about their relationship. After lunch, since she had nothing else to do and told him as much, she offered to walk him back to his office. And as they walked, it occured to her to ask... "Um.... what is it that you do?" it kinda was weird she didn't know what her own father did. Then again, there was so much about her that he didn't know as well.
