Hello once again! Yes, I'm updating again because I'm happy! I woke up to have a review and a follow alert from babylovee and that made my day so much better! It motivated me to finish one of the chapters so I could post it. Of course, I had to wait until I got home from college but it was alright. Half way down the chapter, I received another review and that gave me another bust up to finish the chapter. Which to the mysterious guest I say a big thank you as well. Gah, it made me so happy! c:

Also, I wanted to point out that this chapter and the first one are from Eirin's point of view, which is my original character. I just wanted to point that not all chapters are going to be form her point of view. Some will be on Rogue's and some will be in third-person point of view. Since I decided to not stick to the order of the sins that I originally picked out, but to post it according as I finish writing them, this is the next one. Hope you guys like it!

On the bottom of the chapter I'm going to explain some things of it so please read it so you can understand. Thank you. c:

-Chapter 2: Greed

I sighed contently as I laid on the comfort of my bed and with the heat of my boyfriend's body next to me. Today was a really hard day, for the both of us. For me not only was physical, but also emotional as seeing that Rogue and I had a huge fight. I know that being with him brought some ups and downs just like any relationship but trying to make Rogue comprehend a neutral point of view was easier said than done. I was trying to kick out the flashbacks that came back reminding me of the horrible day I had today, but they wouldn't leave me alone.

[flashback]

"Gajeel, knock it off already." –I said as I was at a table with Lucy, Levy and Rogue, talking with the blond as the blue-haired was reading a book and my black-haired boyfriend was listening. Rogue was seating at my right picking a fight with him while Lucy and Levy were seated in front of me.

Since Rogue and I are together, the guild has slowly accepted his presence around since he's also not that sociable with most of the people around, that does somewhat the trick. On the other hand, he is more comfortable around Lucy and Levy, since I spend most of my time at the guild with them when they're around. I, on the other hand, wasn't allowed to enter his guild because of what happen at the grand magic games with Natsu beating both of the famous dragon slayers of Sabertooth. I didn't mind though, I was going to feel uncomfortable there because I knew I wasn't welcome not only by the master, but the members as well. I had a decent understanding with Sting, since he was Rogue's partner, but I knew he was still a little apprehensive about the situation. Frosch was with Happy, Lily and Carla, the fellow Exceeds were friendly enough to handle her, even though Frosch reminds me of happy in a way. Erza, Gray and Natsu already gave Rogue the speech. You know the typical 'you hurt her and I'll kill you' one. I also knew he was intimidated by Erza because, typical of her, she pointed a sword to his throat and sentenced him to death if he hurt me anyway a human-being can be hurt by another. He kept his indifferent attitude but I could see the fear in his eyes. He just nodded and assured her that he would not hurt me, on the contraire.

"Your boyfriend started it. Besides, we have some unfinished business to handle." –Gajeel responded, cracking his knuckles. I glared at him and sighed. Rogue, sensing my irritation, wrapped his arm around my shoulders and pulled me closer, making me lean my head on his shoulder. I smiled a little and leaned in, closing my eyes for a moment before he talked.

"I still want to fight you Gajeel, but right now I don't think is the time." –Gajeel just smirked and left the table. I frowned a little and got up from the table, starling the girls and Rogue.

"I'm going to head home. I don't want to be here anymore." –Levy frowned.

"Is it because of Gajeel?" –My blue-haired friend asked. I shocked my head.

"He clearly ruined the mood," –I said it loud enough for him to hear it and then continued. "but not completely. I just feel like being at home." –She nodded.

"Alright I'll see you tomorrow at the guild. Don't forget we're going on a mission with Lu-chan early." –I nodded, smiling at the girls and walking out of the guild. Rogue was behind me and when we exited the guild, he walked beside me. You would think that we're the typical lovely-dolly couple but in reality, we're not and that's one of the things that we like about each other. Don't get me wrong, we have our moments when he holds my hand or wraps his arm around my shoulder but its only when he takes me on dates and that rarely happens since we're both busy with missions, specially him. I don't mind though, I like it that way. The time we've been together I've been trying to make him stop his rivalry with Gajeel or at least cease it a little, which has only lead to failures. After the 10-minute walk to my apartment, I opened the door and got inside, going directly to my room. Rogue entered and closes the door behind him, also following me to my room as I was hanging the light jacket I had on and placing my shoes on the closet. When I turned around, he was sitting on my bed, glancing at me with his eyebrow raised.

"What?" –I ask as I crossed my arms. I knew what was coming after I spoke the word.

"What is the real reason you wanted to leave the guild so early?" –I sighed and turned to my closed, roaming around the shelves that were placed on the left side of the closet, filled with books as I tried to find one that I wanted to read. As I did this, I spoke.

"Because I don't want Gajeel and you fighting. And that stupid argument pissed me off."

"Why?" –I turned around and by the look on his face, he knew that I was upset.

"Because, every time you come to the guild, we can't have a moment with out both of you picking a fight with each other. I just want both of you to be alright with each other and after all the fighting I did with Natsu, Erza and everyone else so we could have a place to chill besides my apartment, is unfair that your rivalry with Gajeel comes in the middle of me spending time with you. His stupid metal ass is being really annoying every time! I don't see you as often as I would like and yet, when we're at the guild, always the subject of Gajeel comes along or a fight is about to happen. It pisses me off. You can come any other day and fight with him, I don't even care, but if you say you came to see me, why do you have to pick a fight?" –I said as I rambled on about the subject. He just sat there quietly, listening attentively but still managing to keep his bored and uninterested expression. It made me slightly angrier at the situation. I knew he had his reasons, but if he says he's going to do something, then don't go doing the exact opposite. He then got up and went to me, getting close to me and staring at my eyes. I got slightly intimidated, his tall figure hovering over me. He stared at my eyes, like looking for something in my eyes, and I didn't backed down, as I was angry enough to shove away the uncomfortable feeling of being stared at. He sighed and grabbed my arms, pulling me to a hug. I sneaked my arms around his waist as he had his around my shoulders. I laid my head on his chest for a moment, forgetting everything that happen moment ago, forgetting that the rest of the world exited outside from this embrace. He then pulled away and looked again into my eyes.

"I know you don't understand my reasons, but I need to beat him." –I made a sound that showed frustration, and pushed him a little, so I could walk away. I walked out of the bedroom and went to the kitchen to grab a glass of water. Rogue followed me there. "Can you please understand? Is my goal to beat Gajeel, is what I have to do." –I groaned in frustration.

"You don't understand the point that I'm trying to bring Rogue. I don't care if you want to break each other's neck but be sure to come to the guild to do so first. If you came to spend time with me, don't go and provoke him. I know there's the slight tension of you wanting to fight him and him wanting to rip your throat because of what you did to your dragon, but if I'm around, don't because I don't want to watch the love of my life and one of my nakama fight and specially at the magnitude that the both of you will take it." –I drooped the glass of water on the sink and went to my room, putting my shoes back on and grabbing the same jacket, also grabbing my keys and exiting the apartment, leaving Rogue behind. I needed some fresh air to calm down because if this argument went any further, things were going to get ugly.

Why does he have to be so greedy towards fighting and proving something? Is like he doesn't want to reason about it. Since I've meet him, since the first time he asked me out and talked to me, he was straight-forward of his intentions and I was alright with it because I though he would know how to keep both things separate from each other. I walked and walked until I ended up at Magnolia Park, I sighed softly and walked to an empty bench, sitting down for a moment and feeling the air pass by. After a few minutes, I calmed down and decided to walk around town for a little bit. When I got back, the sun was setting. I though that Rogue left because of the amount of time I spend outside. I didn't mean to sound so mean and to be like that but I couldn't help it. I knew I needed to apologize when I see him. I entered the apartment and the lights were off on the living room and kitchen. I went to my room after turning on a little lamp that was on the living room. I went to my closet and putted the jacket back after taking it off and took my shoes off also leaving them there. With the light coming from the window, I searched once again for a book. Then I felt two hands on my waist and I gasped, being a little scared of the sudden movement and not expecting it at all. Rogue kissed my neck and laid his head on my shoulder.

"I'm sorry." –He said while I turned around in his arms. I was a little surprise since in the time we've been together he has never apologized before. Sure, we had our little fights here and there and he somewhat admitted when he was wrong and I knew he was sorry, but he wasn't one of vocalizing an apology. I looked into his eyes and sighed, a small smile on my lips.

"I'm sorry too, I shouldn't have exploded like that." –He shocked his head.

"It was a normal response. I think I would've reacted worse if I was in your place." –I laughed a little. He then leaned down and kissed me quickly, grabbing my hand and walking with me to the bed. He lay down and patted the spot next to him. I smiled and lay down next to him, the only sounds of the room being our breathing.

[present time]

I sighed and turned in the bed, facing the rest of the room and giving him my back. I then felt him move and not even a minute later, his arm was around my waist and pulling me close to him. He buried his head in the crook of my neck and I could feel his breathing hitting my neck, making me have goose bumps. I tried to buried myself as much as I can to him, appreciating this moment. I closed my eyes and tried to fall asleep. As I did so, I smiled to myself. Rogue Cheney, what a greedy bastard you can be.

Important: Excuse my lack of creativity when it comes to fights. I know the chapter is about greed and that greed basically means the desire of having material stuff and gaining them, but as any other sin, it doesn't have to be only the desire of having material things, it can also be portrait with power, as it is in this case. It is my way of interpreting a greedy person, which I think every human been is in some way or another. Also, in there somewhere, apprehensive is written at some point. When I wrote the word, I meant it to be as in 'uneasy'. I just like to use big words. Hehe. :3

Anyways, please tell me your thoughts on how I'm doing and if you have any other comment, leave me a review! They motivate me to write and it makes me happy to know your thoughts. I'll try to update as soon as I can. I just hope I can update soon since I don't have any work to do yet from college.

Any grammar mistakes, please tell me and I'll correct them and I'll be sure to not make them the next time. c:
