`` It's quite beautiful, do n't you think?'' She said, looking out over the bustling city of white stone being built beneath them. 
 
 `` A bit gaudy for my tastes, but I suppose it has its charms.'' He answered, barely acknowledging her presence. 
 
 Her hair flew around wildly in the wind as she turned to face him, `` Of course you would say that, it would be *oh so shameful* for us to agree for once. Not everything is a competition. you know.'' 
 
 A slight smile snuck up on the side of his cheek, `` A sentence only uttered by those afraid to lose.'' 
 
 She threw her head back and laughed from the core, the sound echoing through the small hill upon which they sat. `` Ah, well said, well said.'' Smiling heartily at the city spread out before them. `` But I recall a certain someone sulking after losing to the true king of Egypt.'' 
 
 `` You cheated! That boat was made of wood and you know it!'' He shouted 
 
 `` Sore loser could n't even finish what he started...'' She responded in a melodious tone, studying her nails absentmindedly. 
 
 `` **You** started it when you tried to fucking seduce me!'' He threw his hands up in the air and started to get up. `` You know what, fuck this I'm not going to stand here and take shit from you.'' 
 
 `` How about a contest then?'' She said, eyes still fixed on her fingers. `` Whoever convinces the ruler of this city to name it after them first, wins.'' 
 
 He stopped in his tracks, his curiosity peaked and turned his focus back to her. `` Ground rules?'' He asked habitually. 
 
 `` Let's do no favors, only gifts this time.'' She said over her shoulder, still sitting down in the grass. 
 
 `` You believe he would strip this town of its name for mere *gifts*?'' He inquired 
 
 `` Oh please,'' She said `` The man is a snake, he would change his own name if he thought to gain from it. Or maybe you are just chickening out again?'' Her eyes gleamed mischievously at him, egging him on further. 
 
 He considered it for a while before his competitive streak finally got the better of him. `` Okay, but only physical gifts, no bullshit reasoning. Deal?'' 
 
 `` Deal.'' She said, standing up and clasping his arm. `` May the best man win.'' 
 
 `` Oh, fuck off.'' He said in the face of her smug smile and started walking away. `` 50-year limit.'' He shouted, back still turned toward her. 
 
 She watched him walk away with a smile, the game was on once more and she could barely contain her excitement. And in the shade of the great olive tree, she began to formulate a plan.
