⊱Les hommes sont tous pareils⊰

┏━━━━━━༻♔༺━━━━━━┓

"I think I have chocolate overdose," I groaned, clutching my belly.

"You're not a human, Lust," the blonde man before me chuckled.

"Then why do I have chocolate overdose, hm?" Leaning forward, I playfully poked Greed's cheek but he quickly swatted my hand away. Back then, he used to be so touchy, initiating hugs and skin-ship first, but lately, he just hated it when someone touched him and I didn't understand it.

"I don't know, ask Lucy."

I pouted, feeling rejected. "That bastard will say something shitty. I'm not in the mood right now."

"What did you call me, Lust?" A voice echoed inside my head and I cowered, smiling sheepishly.

"Sorry, Lucy. Didn't mean to say that."

"Yo, Lust," Greed called before motioning at the window with his head. "There's Chastity."

I turned my head to see that annoying woman walk past the cafe we were sitting inside. Her curly hazel hair waving in the wind, green eyes narrowed in crescent moons as usual as if she was having the time of her life. The fact that she was always in a good mood irked me.

"I hate that chick," I spat before obnoxiously sipping my latte.

The blonde haired man chuckled while playing with my short locks. "I hate Charity as much as you hate Chastity, too. Why do they disturb us at every point of time? If I could have eliminated her, I would've done it a long time ago."

I nodded before sipping again. A little scary but okay...

"By the way, is your vajayjay still functioning?" He snorted before covering his mouth with his ringed hand, making me choke.

"What the fuck, Greed?"

"Honestly, how many men have you slept with for the past century?" His eyes suddenly sparkled with curiosity. "Have you been living up to your sin?"

I, on the other hand, lost my appetite and pushed my latte away with much disgust.

"Don't fucking ask me that," I grumbled, shooting him a menacing glare. "I seriously consider perishing instead of continuing this shitty job."

He cackled and slumped back in his chair. "But seriously, how many times do you do that per day? I made a bet with Gluttony, you see. He said ten and I said twenty. So who wins?"

Such nice friends I have...

"Bitch, both of you are way off," I snapped.

He gasped dramatically, narrow eyes widening. "Don't tell me, seventy or eighty?"

"Fuck you, Greed!"

"Go ahead." He smirked.

This bitch...

"Never in a million years." I gave him a fake smile and stuck out my tongue.

"I'm kind of jealous, though," he sighed, brushing back his hair. "You're getting it on while I just make women jealous of each other's bags or some shit."

I couldn't help but chortle. "I would actually love to see that instead of doing what I'm doing. Imagine all the catfights."

"You know Lucy won't let us switch our sins."

I groaned softly. "I know..." He did say something about me being fit to be Lust.

"Maybe I should give it a try and ask him," he gasped jokingly, holding his chin in a pondering manner. "I'd be the most charming casanova mankind has ever seen."

"Perv," I hissed before untying the little braid he did with my hair. "Even if you do become Lust, I don't think you would like it... All I work with are unfaithful wastes of air. My skin just crawls whenever I come near one of those sickening creatures."

He bit his lips, looking down at his boba tea. "I know how you feel about them... I'm sorry if that was... you know..."

I shrugged it off. "It's fine, Greed."

Someone suddenly whistled and I looked around the cafe until I saw a guy with gelled hair, leather jacket and an irritatingly amused expression blatantly staring at me from a nearby table. I knew that look anywhere.

"Single or taken, baby?"

I was totally not in the mood for seducing douchebags.

"Curious or creepy, bro? I'd say the latter for both my and your questions."

"Oooh, feisty, I like it," he sang before striding towards our table, eyeing me like the animal he was. "Don't worry about your boyfriend, babe. I can make you feel ten times more pleasure than he could ever do."

I rolled my eyes. "Funny. That's what every guy tells me. Especially the ones with unbelievably small juniors to compensate for their disappointments..." I eyed his crotch in a contemptuous manner. "Guys like you."

"Excuse me," he snapped, slamming his hand on the table to threaten me. "Who do you think you are, bitch?"

I glared at him with sheer hate and disgust.

Men are all the same... Lacking anger management, too prideful, pompous, greedy pigs who only chase after pleasures...

No wonder hell is populating quickly.

"Who do you think you're talking to, fucker?" Greed abruptly stood up before grabbing the man's collar with much force, giving him a spine-chilling glare. "You have some nerve saying something like that about my girlfriend!"

If we weren't the center of attention, we certainly were now. Everyone was watching us intently from where they were, even the waiters. I definitely didn't want this.

"Don't ever come near her again," he growled as his eyes flashed golden yellow.

I could only tell that he used his powers, but I didn't know what hallucinations he made the petrified man see.

"Greed," I whispered, holding his arm that clutched the man's jacket, trying to stop him. The man was starting to thrash around and sob loudly as if he saw his worst nightmare.

"Jimin," I hissed and he finally let go of the man, looking down at him as he dropped to the ground with his hands clutching his head while crying uncontrollably.

"I haven't heard you use my real name for a long time," he chuckled dryly before taking my hand. "Let's head back."

I nodded slowly as I briefly watched the man on the ground, and walked out of the cafe with Greed, ignoring all the murmurs and exclamations of the others.

"Are you okay, Greed? You seem really... off lately..."

"I'm fine, what do you mean?" He gave me his usual warm smile that crinkled his eyes. "Just couldn't stand hearing you get insulted by someone like him."

There was definitely something wrong. Jimin never lost control like that before but I couldn't ask further since he brushed it off so easily and so quickly.

In a second, we teleported back to hell and walked to our respective thrones inside the hall room, taking our seats among the other Sins.

"Went on a date, you two?" Gluttony wiggled his eyebrows at us and the others eyed us with glimmers of interest.

"Date, my ass," Greed chuckled, slumping back in his chair. "Since when did Lust go on dates?"

"Enough chit chatting," Pride spoke, standing up before facing all of us. "Now that we're complete, let's head to the Meeting. Lucy already went ahead, we must hurry, guys."

Standing up from our thrones, we all gathered around in circle and held each other's hands before chanting, "Nous allons vous faire péché."

With that, we were transported to the Meeting hall where God, the seven Virtues and Lucy were sitting around the round table, waiting for us.

"Took you long enough," Humility spat, crossing his arms. It was funny how he was almost as prideful as... Pride.

"You were waiting for us?" Pride sang. "Aww, thank you. The main characters always show up last, you know."

We all stood there glaring at the Virtues who returned the same icy looks except for one.

"Lust," the girl with long hazel colored hair said, smiling at me.

"Chastity." I frowned.

Rolling my eyes, I turned to look at the Sins and Greed caught my attention. The tension between him and Charity could be felt the most just from the hateful looks they were exchanging. It was as if he had a major argument with her.

"Oh come on now, guys! Stop murdering each others with your eyes," Lucy exclaimed before turning to us to order, "Sins, take your seats."

We obliged in silence and the Meeting commenced.
