Title: Her Sins.

Summary: Matsumoto is a woman that regrets but rarely stopped to look back on her mistakes, that was until he left her.

Chapter Four: Greed

An excessive desire to acquire or possess more than what one needs or deserves

-Greed

She didn't want wealth, fame, or status. All she ever wanted was his love, but she supposed that was just too much for her to ask. Frowning she peered through the window, the morning sun seemed too bright. The whole word seemed a bit different without him here; sighing she murmured under her breath, "I don't need him."

"Don't need who?"

His piercing voice startles her. Letting a silent yelp slip she turned around to face her Taichou. For a split second he looked just like that back-stabbing bastard, it was his striking silver locks. Stormy eyes narrowed before realizing she was getting upset with the wrong person. Smiling she cheery waved the question aside, "Oh no one important Taichou!"

"Che whatever," his eyes dart away and shimmer with irritation.

She isn't a fool and immediately picks up on her captain's mood; it was obvious he was distressed about something. "Taichou…?"

"We have a mission," his eyes refuse to meet hers. "It's about Gin."

His name sends shivers down her spine and she starts to tremble slightly. Gritting her teeth she forces a smile, she needs to be strong. Atleast around Hitsugaya, she can't let him see her tears. He has far more important things to worry about, and if she started to cry then he would waste his time on her. Because he was sweet like that, cause unlike Gin he actually gave a damn about her.

"Matsumoto?"

For a moment his voice held traces of him, she unconsciously whispers "Don't leave me…not yet…please?" Hitsugaya steps towards her with concern clearly showing on his face, he catches the last bit, "Gin."

He supposed he was being selfish to push her into this but he had thought she was ready. Hoping she was finally over the traitor, cursing silently he continued to approach her. When he was only a foot away she started to chuckle. Unlike her usual cheery voice, it came out so dull and bitter.

"Matsumoto…?"

Slowly her raspy laughter dies out to a sob. His hand grasps her shoulder and pulls her towards him. He's lost for words and uncomfortable with the situation, especially as she starts to whimper out the asshole's name.

She would never know about his feelings, she will never be truly free from Gin's hold, for she is too absorbed with missing him that she can't move on.
