Among Warm Sunsets

Apples

The Harvest God loved apples. Throughout his immortal life he has never really been attached to anything, yet superior quality apples, grapes and cocktails were his temptation.

Even if he was in a bad mood, any of these items would instantly change that. He also had a secret ruby obsession, not even his sister—the Harvest Goddess didn't know about these things. If she did, he'd never live it down.

Especially, if the human found out; she would blow it out of proportion. Just the thought of what he'd have to endure made his head throb.

"Speaking of that human, I wonder where she is," the Harvest God thought to himself. "She usually comes to bother me around this time; I wonder where she could be…"

Ten seconds later, almost out of thin air, Molly popped next to the Harvest God.

The Harvest God was indeed surprised, but was able to keep his composure-because he's a boss like that.

"Hello m'lord, did you miss me?" Molly asked, attempting to wrap her arm around the Harvest God's shoulder. It proved rather difficult, since he's rather large; so she settled with leaning on him.

He sighed; maybe it was better to not think about her, seeing as she would just pop out of nowhere—like weeds.

"No, I did not," he replied in a rather bored tone.

Molly frowned, "He's always so moody, I wonder how I can cheer him up…"

And that's when Molly came up with the most awesome-est idea to trump all the ideas she's had in her whole lifetime.

"M'lord, what's your favorite food…?"

Now, I know what you're thinking: 'Gods don't sweat… do they?'

But oh, oh they do indeed sweat, and this God in particular was.

"Uh… I do not have a favorite food," he said nervously; too bad for him though—he is a terrible liar.

Molly only smirked. "Oh really, because it says here—" she pulled out a thick notebook that showed everything about Castanet—including all the citizens who live there, "—that you like Shining Apples, Shining Grapes, Apple Cocktails, Grape Cocktails, and ruby accessories."

The Harvest God's eyes widened in shock, "Bloody hell, how… how did she know that…?"

Molly ignored his silence and continued, "Lucky for you, I have a Shining Apple in my rucksack here," she took off her rucksack and knelt down to dig through the contents inside.

The Harvest God tried peering over her shoulder but was too late. Molly stood up and handed him the superb apple.

He couldn't help but drool a little from the little gift, he couldn't believe this was happening… what if he lost control…?

Molly went into her rucksack to get something else, "I think I also have a Shining Grape in here… lemme just—whoa…"

Before Molly could pull out her other gift, the Harvest God had shoved the whole apple in his mouth—it was kind of frightening, really.

Molly just stared at the Harvest God, dumbfounded. "Uhm, do… do you still want… the grapes…?" she asked shakily.

The Harvest God, blushing bright red from embarrassment, mumbled a simple 'yes'.

Molly quickly handed him the grapes, afraid that he might swallow her hand in the process.

He quickly gobbled them up too.

Molly looked around nervously. "Uh, so… you really… have a problem, huh?"

He merely nodded his head, his embarrassment increasing tenfold.

Molly held her hand to her mouth to keep from laughing, "You know, you… you should really get some help."
