Chapter one

I'm very sorry for my english grammar, please feel free to correct me in the comments!

"What's the plan again?" 

"For fucks, P, do you ever listen?!"

"Guys, shut the fuck up!" i whisper, trying to open the gate without making any sounds.     

"The plan, my dear idiots, is me opening the gate, P goes left, Em goes right and i go front, whoever get's in first gives the others a signal and we all get there without being noticed. Em, you know how this shit works, no mistakes allowed. As for you P, i told you what you're getting yourself into, there's no backing out now. And remember, if you get caught, it's over." i say, both of them getting on my fucking nervs.

"okay, and what excactly am i looking for?" i hear P whisper, while i'm struggling with the god damn gate. 

"Anything of value...... want me to help, Ari?" Em reaches for the lock, knowing that my broken wrist makes things quite harder than usual.

"back the fuck off" i hiss, without looking at her. Why won't this thing open!??

"is she always like that?" i hear P whisper to Em, but she doesn't answer, she knows better.

*click*

"hell yeah" i say. "now let's get this over with."

Em immediatly runs to the right and i look over to P. He looks a bit unsure if he should go or not so i have him a reasuring nod. We both start running in our direction and even before i could reach the door, i hear our signal. It's Em, so i run to the right, making sure to watch my surroundings, trying not to make too many sounds or knock anything over. I look over my shoulder an see P, running faster than i thought he could, which alarms me. 

"You okay?" i say, loud enough for him to hear me.

"Yeah, i was just a little scared alone, so i came here as fast as i could." he says, a pathetic smile on his face, him blushing. I don't know if he's ashamed or just red from running, either way, i can smell his sweat, and it smells like fear to me.

Em was waiting for us on the porch, the stairs leading down to a garden, filled with the most beautiful flowers i had ever seen, bushes as round as the full moon and a little pond, that looked like it had a couple fish in it. Jackpot. Dinner.

"Is the door open?" P asked stupidly. It's his first time going on a, what we like to call, shopping spree. Patrick is a little younger than us, we used to hang out with his older brother Alex, but after a failed shopping spree, they caught him. His excecution is in a couple of weeks, so we're trying to gather as much money and as many things as possible to get him out of there. 

"i wouldn't have called you over if the door was locked, stupid." Em says with a playfull grin on her face, while carefully openning the door. It seemed to be the backdoor leading to some sort of dinning area. 

I take my pocket knive out of my boot and walk past her into the dinning room. There's a long dark wooden dinning table in the middle of the room, surrounded with matching chairs with golden detailes on each of them. Three little white flowerpots with red roses were placed in the middle of the table and the walls are full with small and one rather big painting. I look over to P who seems mesmerized by the look of the room. Em and i were already used to seeing these kind of things, as we've been in even fancier houses before, but P has never seen anything other than the small little sheds in our area. 

I carefully make my way to the big hallway, making sure to leave no footprints on the incredibly beautiful looking carpet. The hallway looks a lot less fancier than the dinning room. Big leavy plants in brown plastik pots next to the walls, uncountable pictures,of what seemed to be the family that lives here, hanging on the walls and one big family picture at the end of the hallway.

"P, try not to get to distracted and keep your feet of the carpet, we don't want anyone to know that someone's been in here." i say, knowing damn well he's already stepped on it.

"Let's split up" Em looks at me for aproval. She's always been like a little sister to me, even though she's a  year older than me, but i've always been the one in charge and always the one looking out for the both of us. 

I give her a nod and make my way to the first door in the hallway. This has to be the living room, a big Television hanging on the wall, two big white sofas in front of it. A big white carpet on the floor, that looks like it hasn't been touched once and again, paintings on the walls. To the right was a big thing that contained wood. It's the first time i see one of those so i make my way over to get a better look. 

It looks like a campfire but in the wall. Why would anyone put up a campfire in their house? Rich people are weird. I turn around and see the thing i've been looking for: stairs. So i make my way up and open the first door i see and it looks like my childhood dreams. A big room with pink walls, a beautifull bed with lots of stuffed animals, all neatly placed neyt to each other. A big dollhouse next to the window and a little pink sofa with the name "Sofiya" written in gold.

A little girls room, nothing of value to take.

I make my way to the next room which seems to be the parents room. Easy. I open the drawers and take out any jewellery, clocks and devices i can find and stuff them into the pokets of my green jacket. 

"ARI, WE GOTTA LEAVE!" i hear Em scream.

Fuck. 

I run down as fast as i can and right when i made it into the dinning room, the front door opens and i hear laughter. 

"Go, go ,go!" i whisper to P, who, for whatever fucking reason, was waiting for me, instead of getting out the goddamn house.

Em carefully closes the door behind me and proceeds to walk to the gate.

"Wait!" i say, running to the pond. "Help me catch these." 

She looks at me in disbelieve.

"Ari, what if they come out and see us??" she whispered.

"You wanna go to bed hungry?" i say annoyed. Sometimes she just doesn't think fast enough.

Em makes her way over to the pond, and i make my way to P. 

"Hold it." i whisper and he looks at me as if i was insane. 

"Take the fucking fish!"

"i have one!" Em screams.

We look at each other in shock.

"Run." i say and we run as if our life depends on it, because somehow, it does.

Thats it for the first chapter my friends, i hope you like it :)
