Scarpetta was twitching from the sensation of his lips. She went numb and could hardly move away. He was finding all of her spots because he knew where they were. He had seen the things Fujiko was doing, but Scarpetta knows that he was more experienced. He would be doing things his way, his own creative way. She kept one hand in her lap and the other on Jigen's shoulder. He wanted to look at her, he wanted to see the reaction on her face. He got closer to her neck and began to go for her collar bone and sucked on it. Her nails dug into his should which caused him to grunt, but didn't pull away.

Damn it, he was going to leave a mark on her neck if he kept going on.

What was worse, that there were still people in the house so if someone was to walk in ,game over for the both of them. She could never look at any of them the same if they were to discover that she could get like that. All hazed out from lust, wearing her friend's shirt and leaving marks on her skin. Lupin would never leave her alone about it and neither would Fujiko, which mean's she would try much harder.

" What are you going to gain from this? " She asked. " You think Fujiko will try harder if she were to see us? "

" I wish she would walk in here right now. " He said.

" What! "

She pulled back harshly, but his hand almost kept her in place and she could only look at him. She didn't understand and maybe she never would, but to her this was just insane. If he was getting back at her, that was fine, but she didn't feel like being used as a puppet.

" You're not being you, seriously what it this really all about? " She asked. " I have a feeling it's not just Fujiko that is bothering you either."

She had to admit that both Fujiko and Lupin have been pretty suggestive lately, but she wanted no part of it. She was beyond freaked out and only saw them as friends and nothing more than that. They would drop hints or even leave notes for her by her door, she would just burn them. She acted as if there was nothing going on and would continue to ignore it. She would have guessed that maybe Goemon or Jigen would notice that and maybe say something to them. She figured that they thought of her as a third person in the relationship and decided to leave it alone.

She had to fight her desires and of course Fujiko and Lupin.

" I will give you this, you have guts to just waltzes in here like you own the place, but that doesn't make up for your actions. " She said.

The gunmen stayed silent for what seemed like hours and only looked into her amber colored eyes. She could tell she had perhaps hit some sort of nerve, but she would attempt to make it better.

" Jigen, listen to me, I don't have feelings for Fujiko nor Lupin if that's what you think. You don't have to prove yourself by pushing it on me. I'll understand if you're angry with me or even at them, but nothing happened. I put a stop to it, I never wanted to be a part of the triangle."

She did the her best to explain herself, but all he did was let out a grunt. She wasn't too sure if it was disapproval or maybe disappointment.

" I have no reason to lie to you, I just want to understand why. Why is this happening all of a sudden? I don't understand. I just don't. "

" You only managed to figure out some of the reasons, but I'm just going to tell you. " He spoke. " Fujiko in a way thinks that she own's you because of all the favors that you do for her. She thinks that you will do just about anything for her which I know that you won't. I'm sure that she's told you to seduce me many times because she knew how close you and I were becoming. You told her no and yeah, that pissed her off so she decided to get back at you by using my friend to get to you. So why didn't you do what you were told? It is your job, right? "

She relaxed from the feel of his hand holding her as she looked at him.

" Whoa, rude, don't you think?" she said. " I did it because I don't want to be anything like her, I wanted to prove that to you and the others, but it seems that you're quick to judge. Not every women you run into it goes to stab you in the back. I told her to fuck off because I didn't want to risk my trust and friendship with you, Goemon and Lupin. Why can't you see that? "

She didn't want to be anything like that women, let alone anything like Lupin. She had seen the way that both of them treated men and women, whether they deserved it or not she would get angry about it. She wouldn't talk to Lupin nor Fujiko for the rest of the night and retire to her room to stop herself from saying something stupid.

" You think I'm that sadistic? Your lack of judgement entertains me. " She spat. " I don't like hurting other people, that's not me because there is no point messing with someone. "

" What are you trying to say then? That you actually care?" he said.

" Yes! I do! I really do. " She said. " I care about you too much to even make an attempt to even try and hurt you. "

" You have tried before, don't think that I haven't forgotten. " He said, sliding his hands off her.

" That's because you were shooting at me, what was I suppose to do? Let you do it? " She asked. " Shit, if I wanted to finish it so badly, maybe I should have stayed still since you were so determined to kill me."

He began to chuckle at that.

" That wasn't funny Jigen!" she screeched.

" I know, but you get so mad about it. "

She crossed her arms over her chest and glared at him as she was not entertained by his laughing.

" You're so cute when you're pissed too."

" If I rip your face off will you find me cute? " She said.

She stayed like that for the longest time, giving him that death glare that made Lupin jump in fear. It was a good tactic, but she could only do it enough times till she got tired and just started ignoring Lupin. She knew too well that this look she was giving would not work on Jigen, let alone make him flinch. If anything, it would annoy him and he would do the typical " Che" or " Tch". That was sort of a habit she had picked up from him when they started going on mission together. It turns out they work really well together since she hardly speaks and keeps her focus on the task.

She was so use to being with Fujiko on missions that it was hard to believe that Lupin had agreed to let Scarpetta and Jigen do a few heist's.

" I see your sarcasm isn't dull. " He said smirking. " You can glare at me all you want. "

" Tch" she said. " I bet you get off on that, don't you? "

Not like she wanted to know that in the first place, but it would be something that would slightly bug him. He would frown of course, make up some sorry ass excuse and then try his tactic over again. She had learned enough to know the patterns and the behavior of her partners that it was almost an equalizer to trust one another.

" Girl, you have no idea what get's me off." he grunted.

" I really don't care to know either, but since you were being coquettish a few minutes ago, why don't you finish what you started? "

" Is that an order? " He asked

" No, it's a fucking demand." She growled. " Just remember, you're the one who came into my personal space and then proceeded to take it a step further."

The male looked at her before his lips were curled into a nice and perfect smirk. She had no idea if he was submissive or dominate, but she had a feeling that there was a certain mix of both.

" You're the one to talk about me not making a move." He said " I can recall that heist we have a few months back with those women. "

Oh, yeah, that.

A few months back when they had to take these women out on dates because Lupin wanted some of their good's with a side of hot tail. Of course, Lupin went with one of the women and Jigen and Scarpetta were left alone with two other women that were their dates. She was honestly all for it, until she felt a slight pang of jealousy take her over. Scarpetta was trying to keep her focus on her date, but she noticed the way her date's friend had been touching Jigen. The way she was kissing his neck and the way she was getting close to him.

Her date finally left after a few minutes, realizing that Scarpetta wasn't paying attention to her. She ended up getting drunk that night just to get those thought out of her head. Jigen seemed unfazed by the other females advances and just let her do what she wanted to him. She realized that after a few days that he was doing it all on purpose. She wanted to ask about it, but he would always be gone so she would never get the chance to ask. She would spend her time in coffee shops or walking around the city's they would stay in.

In a way, she was ashamed of looking at Jigen, let alone speak to him. She soon forgot about the ordeal and things went as normal.

" That was months ago. I got over that in less than a week. " She said.

" You were still mad though, you knew that I had done it on purpose and yet you let it happen. "

" Why does it matter now? " She asked. " In fact, why does that incident that happened between me and Fujiko matter? "

Jigen rested his hand on her shoulders again and pulled her closer to him so that they were eye to eye. The dark desires and the seriousness in his eyes was enough to make her shiver. It made her pay more attention and this time she could care less if Lupin or Fujiko were to walk in.

" Because it bothers me to know that bitch got you to herself for a night."

" Well, at least you're honest. " She said. " Like I said, nothing happened. "

If he thought that kiss was going to spark something between Fujiko and her, he's wrong. She pulled back and took a deep breath before she took another look at Jigen.

" You want it that bad? " She asked " Well, here you go! "

She harshly grabs his tie and pulled him close enough to where she had kissed him. She felt Jigen tense up from her sudden moment and felt him searching for something. She had almost forgotten about his reflex which was looking for his gun and aiming it at the person. He was starting to calm down when he realized that he wasn't in any danger. He wrapped his arms around her once again and pulled her closer to him. The space had been closed off and they were practically glued to each other. She pulled back and smirked at him.

" You're all talk and no bite I see"

The male said nothing and just gave her a look of shock before he finally had the courage to regain himself. He grabbed the back of her neck, making her lean back with a harsh growl.

" I don't think I left enough marks on you to consider your mine. "

He said.

Scarpetta didn't bother moving at all, in fact all she did was craning her neck further back and then closed her eyes. She heard a dark chuckle and then went back to attacking her neck. She had by mistake tensed up and this caused him to look for that special spot on her neck. She couldn't help it, she let out a moan which was probably loud enough for the others to hear. She covered her mouth in embarrassment and heard Jigen laughing to himself.

" Stop that, they'll hear us. " She hushed.

" You thought that maybe that was what I was going for?"

" Jigen, I swear to g- ah ah"

++ Next morning ++

Scarpetta woke up in a hazy state, her neck sore from those temporary kisses. Jigen had left after she had passed out from sheer pleasure and was nice enough to place her on her bed. She felt a bit embarrassed by this considering they were getting close to smashing each other on her bed. Once he bit down on her neck, she blacked out. She faceplamed herself in the face and then stood up from her bed, making her way to her bathroom.

She had to see what sort of damage Jigen had done that night since she wasn't sure how many times he attacked her neck. The whiteness of the bathroom and the morning light was enough to make her go blind. She walked to the mirror and was taken aback from the dark marks that had been left on her light olive colored skin.

" You have got to be kidding? " She said.

Their were light marks on her collar bone and a large one that the side of her neck that would prove difficult to cover up. She would have to wear her hoodies zipped up and maybe a scarf, but then she had recalled the Fujiko wanted to go swimming today.

" Fuck!"
