Thanks for reading. Feedback is amazing.
A/N: I was not intending to write this, but I saw the word "selfish" on a list of s-adjectives I was putting together for this collection... and so I wrote it anyway.
It cannot be denied that Crowley is selfish.
He likes to have his life easy: ignoring the speed limit, walking out of restaurants without paying the bill, forgetting about taxes entirely. He'll go weeks without doing a single good deed. Of course, it's in his nature to sin, and it's hard to sin for the greater good.
As a rule, Crowley generally doesn't mind being selfish. Sometimes he takes pride in it, knowing he's always looking out for number one. Demons are supposed to be that way.
But sometimes Crowley wonders if falling in love with Aziraphale was too selfish.
(Angels are expected to love unconditionally, but generally they don't engage in physical contact with said loved ones.
Crowley doesn't have a problem with it, but he worries that Heaven might find out one day, and Aziraphale would get banned from Earth.
Aziraphale would be miserable in Heaven, and Crowley would miss him on Earth.
It's a kind selfishness, or perhaps it's a selfish kindness.)
