Curiosity
"My favorite part of Sai is the hair."Julianna cocked her head. A cup of coffee paused halfway on its path to her mouth, because she was nearly certain that those words had come from her husband's mouth. She listened intently, ears pricked forward and waited for the conversation to continue.

"No, it's his pectorals."
From Victoria this time, and Jules was less surprised. Perfectly reasonable for her to be commenting on her boyfriend's physique. Settling her elbows on the island counter, she sipped at her cooling beverage and continued to eavesdrop. It wasn't particularly difficult, given her advantages. And they weren't exactly trying to be subtle.
"Have you seen his arms, though?"
One ear fell to the side, brows disappearing behind her bangs as she was surprised to hear the voice of her best friend. Julianna's gaze flicked to Holland, sitting across from her with his own coffee and a newspaper. They'd taken to staying in the kitchen while the rest of the company moseyed off to entertain themselves. He'd not seemed particularly hooked by the conversation until that moment.
"They're bigger than my thighs," the melodic blonde continued. Julianna smirked as Holland looked back at her, brows knit over the bridge of his nose.
How would she know that? He mouthed. The cat only shrugged, still smirking, but she hid the expression behind her oversized mug. Holland carefully folded his newspaper, before pushing back his chair and leaving the kitchen to see what all the fuss over Sai was about. After a few moments of silence, Jules hopped off her chair as well. If only to find out what Sai was up to that had them all distracted.
She'd found them huddled at a window and when she was near enough to see out of it, she was witness to Sairus chopping wood. Honest to goodness chopping wood. His hair was down and his shirt was off and he looked like some sort of lumberjack wet dream with the blue flannel tied around his waist. His jeans and boots were covered in mud and he was in full view of his admirers, but clueless about his audience.
"I like his back," she chimed in, sipping coffee and ignoring the simultaneous and withering glares she received from both Hart siblings. Aphrodite nodded solemn, and serious beside her. "You're right that is also a very good part."
"Babe," Holland interjected, and Aphrodite shushed him with a quick peck to the cheek. He responded by looping and arm around her waist and pulling her closer to his side. She was smiling all the while. Owen and Victoria had turned back to the window. Another silence fell over them, as Sairus reached for another block of wood, and steadied it on a ground out tree stump. Julianna couldn't for the life of her figure out why we was doing it. They were staying at a cabin for fun, but it was summer.
"How's his dick, though?" Aphrodite's question hung in the air, like a palpable thing they could all reach out and touch.
"Babe!"
"What! We all want to know! I mean c'mon look at him. " Aphrodite gestured to Sairus over Owen's shoulder. Owen moved away from his position at the front of the group and Julianna assumed he was finished with the conversation. Except, he only moved behind her, placing both hands over her ears and pressing them both to her head.
"Hey!" she protested, releasing the coffee with one hand to bat at both of his. He didn't release her and she heard a muffled, "yes do tell."
"Oh my god," Jules deadpanned, before another sip of coffee.
Before Victoria, the only one in the group with any knowledge could respond, Sairus stopped mid-chop. Busted. He had spotted them. Frowning he dropped the ax and lifted his arms in a what the fuck gesture. The group dispersed in opposite directions in a fit of loud laughter.[/spoiler]
