.greed.

Lifelessly staring down at the dull carpet of his bedroom, Seamus knew the only one to blame was himself. A slam echoed dismally through the house as Ashh stormed out. Muffled patters could be heard all around as the rain descent onto the earth. Shaking his head the crestfallen man thought that for once in his life the rain was anything but comfort to him.

'Please....don't go....' He thought as Sly walked away. Their parting embrace hadn't lasted nearly long enough for him. 'You cant....' He protested feet rooted to the ground as he stared blankly at the departing figure of his lover. 'I need you....' He admitted as Sly's retreating footsteps boomed unbearably loud in his ears. His body refused to move an inch, as the fractures in his heart rapidly spread like a weakened crumbling stone. On the outside the group would say he was calm, steady, and handling it "well". On the inside the final glimpse of Sly heading into the plane completely shattered him, leaving the air to carry away the dust that was once his heart. 

~~~~~~~~~~~

Warms hands caressed his face as he looked on in disbelief."Y-your leaving?" Stuttering rare for the usually collected man. Sly continued to run his hands along Seamus's face in attempt to soothe him. Seamus squirmed in Sly's hold suddenly wanting to be anywhere but the Latino's tender hold. Sly quickly wrapped him arms around the shorter trapping him in an embrace, his own face scrunched up in pain. "Let me go!" Seamus half wailing half screaming, movements becoming frantic. Sly tightened his hold on the Irishman. As incontrollable tears streamed down both their face, Sly choked out,"Seamus please,we agreed on this from the very beginning". Seamus had been thrashing at that point going limp at the undeniable truth in Sly's words. Numbed by the stinging truth, he let Sly hug him so tight he though his lungs would collapse. He let Sly kiss his long hair as his mind struggled to catch up. He let the other murmur apologies prepared long before into his vulnerable ringing ears.

Smoldering lips ran along his neck as Ashh straddled him in bed. Seamus arched into her touch desperately trying to feel something. Anything. She continued sliding down his body sensually in a way that would leave anyone out of breath. His thoughts scrambled frantically searching for answers as he laid there tightly gripping her hips. 

It had been months since Sly left. His life had definitely gone down hill as his steady lost interest in everything, the group and his own content. Despite it all Ashh had stayed by his side and he couldn't find it in him to feel anything despite all this time.

"Stop." He said stiffly closing his eyes not wanting to see the disappointment that her eyes seemed to carry more often than not. "Fine." She said tersely lifting herself off of him."I'm done Seamus. I can't do this anymore." She stalked out of the room leaving a trail of bitter anguish in her wake. 

~~~~~~~~~~

Head in hands he sat hunched over as the elements outside howled in a way only natural chaos could. As he retreated into himself, all he could see was Sly' bright smile and have his intoxicatingly laugh resonate through him. He had been wrong to think he could ever only have a taste of the him. Now he was left missing what he had taken so greedily.
