Welcome to Gaia! ::

((I love children. I still don't want to be a mom, tho. O: ))

Lust nodded, feeling relieved that Pain had agreed. It made everything much simpler when he didn't have to deal with such emotions... Desires he was fine with, but emotions were tricky little devils that always tended to get the best of humans....

Lust smiled as the other gave him a tight hug. He returned it, wrapping his slender, pale arms around the smaller male, pulling him close. He turned his head slightly and gave Pain a small kiss on the cheek, but nothing more. It hadn't been long since his last... escapade and his body wasn't behaving nearly so badly now that there wasn't a pair of hands wandering up his leg.

"I'll take you back... and how does lunch sound? Want to stop somewhere or just eat back home?" he murmured slowly, his mouth close to the other's ear.

((I can't wait to be a mom, it's one of my life goals.

Just to warn you, I have this obsession with writing stories where children can do more than they could in real life, so Elizebeth may not always act her age. Meaning she might seem a little more intelligent than a five-year-old should. Also, when I thought her up I had this little irony idea in my head, that Elizebeth would act more grown-up than Sloth does. Not sure if I'll go with that now, but that was the direction I was going in when I made her.))

[ bah i just don't like kids DX & i want to bring Greed into this to make him all pissedoff-ish, yet...he's tied up & it's going nowhere fast >>; ]

Pain sighed, flicking some of his pale locks out of his face. Well, he was rather slim, and wasn't nessicarily that tall, but he didn't think he looked feminine. If he would have known that the five year old thought he was, he would have laughed. Or scowled. Whatever came first. He was not very lady like so that was almost a strange thing to assume, even if she was a kid. Pain just went by without knowing any of this, of course, and flushed a small tint of pink as he felt the kiss to his cheek, even if it had been friendly and kind. Then again, nothing was merely friendly about any of the touches Lust gave, but Pain decided to take it as such this one occasion. It wasn't as if Pain was opposted to wanting to go at another round, since his body was oddly used to the abuse from a certain someone, but Pain decided that now wasn't the time.

"Lunch sounds perfect. Let's stop somewhere."

Really Pain had enough of the house for awhile, and this gave them time to just be off on their own somewhere. He smiled slightly, his skin all but tingling as he felt the warm breath hitting over his overly sensitive furry ear. He loosened the hug a small bit, just draping an arm around Lust's waist.

[ i was invited by my friend to go to the lake. i said yes, but now, i'm like damnit. i don't wanna go. its by water, which i hate, & i don't like fireworks, & i hate the heat/humidity. so, i'm dipping out. in no way do i want to hang with his family. not my idea of a good time o_____o ]

Another small smile grace Pain's lips as he felt the arm around his own waist. It felt good, as though it belonged there, and he had been missing it his entire life. Pain nodded absently as he heard Lust, and dared to guess that he did. He also wondered if he screwed the owners, the people that worked there, or just both. He felt another pang of jelously shoot through his body, but he ignored it easily. Greed's underling turned his head slightly as he caught wind of the conversation that sounded familiar, and he sighed as he saw the two, but turned his head back to face in front of him as Lust thankfully tugged him off and away from them.

Pain didn't care where they went, since he wasn't totally picky in his decision of foods, and was pretty open to anything within reason. He knew that wherever they went, people would be staring, and most likely glaring at him once more. He didn't care, even if it was a bit..unnerving. Pain glanced around as he saw the small pizzaria, and smiled as he nodded.

"Oh, this is great. I love pizza."

Pain said with a smile and a small, musical laugh, tugging at his waist as he brought him inside, though did want to sit outside since it was a beautiful day despite his previous neigitive atitude.

((Sorry for the wait... I've been busy. 8D;;; ))

Lust smiled happily at the other's agreeability and gently led him up to the small podium that the hostess was situated at. She had long, incredibly straight dark brown hair and she smile at them -- though her smile seemed particularly aimed at Lust. "For two, outside, yes?" she said, obviously knowing Lust's preferences. She had a very heavy French accent and incredibly full, dark lips. Obviously, hostesses were hired based on their appeal. Lust nodded, returning her smile, and she leaned forward to give him two bises* on each cheek. "Eet haz been too long, Razzy," she said as she led the pair outside. "Beezunus juzd izzn't zee same without you."

Lust didn't reply, but gave her a small smile before sitting down in his chair. Their table was the outer-most of those on the patio -- the table that everyone from outside would be able to see. As the hostess left, Lust leaned forward over to Pain and said, "The trade is that I get free food as long as I sit somewhere really obvious that will attract customers." He sat back, then, and grinned, running a slender, pale hand through his silky, pale red locks, his golden eyes surveying the other.

((kisses 8D -- the more bises, the less intimate the relationship.

By the way, I suck at typing out French accents, so bear with me. 8D;;;; ))

Lust shook his head slowly, that same, unperturbed smile on his lips. "Don't worry, no offense taken. After all, what else would you expect?" he said with a small, cheeky grin, that simply made him look delicious, his pale skin lovely against the backdrop of butterfly flowers.

"But, really, I'm not into screwing people already past their midlife crisis," he continued, his bright amber-gold eyes glinting a little mischeviously. "Which is the condition of the current owner. So, really, it'd just for business' sake," he explained with a sweet smile. And, true to his word, a flock of girls had already entered the patio, batting their eyelashes as noticeably as possible and taking the table closest to that which Lust and Pain occupied.

Lust spared them a glance, along with a wave, that small gesture enough to send the blushing teens into fits of overly exited giggles before he turned back to the other male. "...The restaurant's going to get pretty full soon," he commented slowly as he caught sight yet another group of roudy girls eyeing him from the sidewalk.

Lust knew just what was happening with Pain. He'd seen it happen oh so many times before... He sighed delicately to himself -- a sound that was so quiet it was nearly inaudible, though he could not mask the motion it made through his lips. "I can order for you, if you want -- unless you're particularly picky," he suggested, knowing that the groups of gawking girls would likely do nothing positive for the other's mentallity.

He leaned forward then, his hand reaching out to lightly touch the other's. "I'm sorry for... them," he murmured quietly, glancing over at the girls, who seemed to increase in volume as they saw his look over. He knew other people didn't quite tollerate all the attention quite as well as he did, and his words seemed quite sincere. His other hand had raised, elbow resting on the table, his hand gently bent towards his face, one pale finger resting on his bottom lip as his eyes returned to study the menu.

Lust offered the other a small smile, though he knew that wouldn't do much (if any) good. He had finished perusing hte menu -- and, right on que, the waiter arrived.

Of course, since he was serving Lust (and was therefor in the spotlite), he had been chosen not only for his appearance, but also for his waitering capability. "Would you like anything to drink?" he asked, flashing them both a smile from behind pearly-white teeth. He had short, finely layered black hair and skin that was a bit on the tan side, but incredibly clear. He was also very, very tall -- he had to be over the six foot mark.

Lust smiled and quickly ordered a rasberry lemonade for himself and for Pain before he discretely pointed down at the pizza of choice. "--And we'll have this pizza," he said, angling his menu so that the waitor could see. The ebony-haired teen smiled and nodded, quickly picked up their menus with a practiced motion, and headed off towards the kitchens.

He glanced over at Pain as the other spoke again. "No. It is my fault. I should have warned you so you could have chosen to eat back home...." he said appolegetically, his golden-amber gaze steady as they fixed on the other. His hand hadn't moved, in all this time, from its position on the other's.
