Sorry it took me so long to post this, been super busy lately.
Envy is the desire for others' traits, status, abilities, or situation.
Like Greed and Lust, Envy is characterized by an insatiable desire
He had stopped sleeping with her, no explanation, no excuses. He just... stopped.
Didn't take her long to figure out why; he'd found better, gone back to his old, man whoreish ways.
That was exactly why she hadn't let herself get attached to him, no matter how much she had wanted to. She had always known this would happen.
Her logic was flawless, but since when had logic had any say when it came to emotions? Half the time they were out she found herself glaring at the women who clung to him. The other half of the time she watched them longingly, wondering what they had that she didn't. Well, other than Kurz.
The bar was the worst, she didn't even help him score chicks anymore, just stood there and watched him use the cheesy lines on them to get the flavour of the week into bed with him.
"I just don't fucking get you!" she yelled one evening, finally tired of putting up with his shit. "You're putting yourself at risk of getting some tramp's diseases and it's not even real!"
"You wanna know why I do stuff like this?" Kurz demanded ferociously. "It might not be real, but god dammit, Mel, it doesn't hurt as much." She stared at him, too stunned to speak.
"What?"
"I don't really want these chicks," he sighed, running a hand through his hair. "I know I'm not even twenty two yet, but I'm tired of this shit and I have been for a while."
"Then why do it?"
"It keeps my mind off the one person I do want." Melissa hesitantly met his blue eyes; he meant it, she could tell. She pulled him into a hug, ignoring his cry of surprise.
"You should've said so," she muttered, enjoying the feeling of his arms wrapping around her. It would've saved her a lot of embarrassment over acting like a jealous school girl.
One more to go, been keeping track on which one it is?
