Don't worry, I'm going to fix everything

Kelly smirked to herself as she walked back to her house. Stealing the money was easier than she thought.

All she had to do was bat her eyelashes and the idiot brought her to his room. Once he was asleep, she hunted for his money from selling and surprise it was in his wardrobe. She stuffed the money into her large handbag and slipped out of the apartment into the night.

As she walked home, a car pulled over. She immediately recognised his brown eyes and chocolate brown hair.

'Kelly where the hell did you go?You left and never came back' Logan questioned with concern. He had been searching for her all evening.

Kelly panicked. People couldn't know what she just did. Especially not her boyfriend Logan. Her hands became sweaty but she kept her cool expression intact.

'Logan! I was just looking for some fresh air away from the party and then I met an old friend and I....lost track of time' She explained calmly.

Logan furrowed his eyebrows. 'What friend?'. Kelly responded quickly with 'You wouldn't know her'. She held her breath, hoping that he believed her.

Logan grinned. 'Well get in already, I'll drive you home'.

Kelly gave Logan a kiss goodnight as she got out of his car. 'Thank you babe, I'll see you Monday' She said sweetly. 'No problem Kells, I'll see you on Monday' Logan replies and he drove off.

'Phew' Kelly said to herself as she strolls up her driveway. She hated lying to her boyfriend but she knew he would freak out if he knew what she just did. He wouldn't care that it was for an important reason.

'Mom I'm home!' Kelly called out.

'Go to bed Kelly' her mom replied dully.

'I need to talk to you mom' Kelly replied. Her mom was a mess ever since her dad left. She barely got up and if she did, she just sat on the couch and stared into space. She left Kelly to provide for herself and her mom. Kelly didn't have time to get a job because she was in high school still and people would become suspicious that they weren't as wealthy anymore. All of their money was nearly gone so Kelly needed to find a way for her and her hopeless mom to survive financially.

So she robs idiots who trust pretty girls to quickly.

'Mom I have money for the bills and groceries, I'll pay them tomorrow' Kelly explains as she walks into her mom's room.

Her mom shoots up from her bed. 'Where did you get the money Kelly?' She asks looking confused.

'Don't worry I'm going to fix everything' Kelly replies in a confident tone.
