Author's Note: I haven't updated in forever! Could be 'cause I'm busy and the fact that I have a new laptop. Haha. I still love Lussuria, don't worry! D8


The sheen of the glossy black top, that luminous silver colored frame surrounding the compact, black keys, a liquid clear screen that had an impressive clarity, and a battery life that could most likely hold out on a rainy day -- this laptop was beautiful -- this laptop had to be his.

"It's simply fabulous! Do you not see this perfection?" Lussuria ran a gentle touch over the plastic covered top of the laptop display model. "Beauty is priceless, boys!"

Xanxus' eyes lingered more over to the alluring plasma TV display next to the computers. Levi stroked his chin and eyed the price tag. "Why is it so expensive? It's just some stupid computer."

Lussuria got into his lecturing position, hand on his hip and legs locked into place. Xanxus already started to walk off to look at the TVs.

"You see, Levi, it has a lot of memory for all of my pictures and music, not to mention dual core processors, so it runs faster, and I like them fast."

Levi promptly shuddered and tried to discard the mental image placed in his head.

"And it's beautiful! I told you, beauty has no price." Lussuria fawned over the laptop, turning his backside to Levi to do so.

There was a silence within the electronics store between the two for a moment. "Why does Boss have to pay for it?" Lussuria had dragged Xanxus out of the base (most likely not getting killed for it because he had promised to take care of all the work for the week) and Levi naturally followed his boss where ever he went. A slight regret for following his boss on this particular day ebbed into his conscious.

Lussuria giggled. "Because I deserve these kind of things! And plus a certain swordsman damaged mine using it to protect himself from a wine glass." He pouted momentarily but became chipper again when Xanxus wandered back over.

"Hurry the fuck up, I want my lunch by noon." Xanxus quickly pulled over a sales representative and told him to make haste with the order.

"But if Squalo ruined it, why is boss here?" Levi was confused. Lussuria was usually very picky when it came to who had to pay the price -- quite literally in this case.

"Well, who writes Squalo's checks?" Lussuria beamed as they followed the representative, who now had a box in hand, to the check-out. He could not wait to set up his new laptop, but he knew he would have to hide it in a few weeks when it came time for Squalo to collect his pay.

Optional lulz Ending

Levi's eyes shot open. "Wait, we get paid?!"
