I groan and wake up in a room that I don't recognize. I sit up and look at my surroundings. A large king sized bed. A fancy large modern room. Damn, who lives here. They must be rich, this is maybe a main room or something.

I stare at the grey over sized oodie I'm wearing and frown. This isn't mine. I then look around for the outfit I was wearing yesterday. I stand up and walk to the nightstand with a black dress on it. I sigh. It's mine. 

I slip my hand into one of the hidden pockets. The ring and bracelet is still there. I smile and chuckle to myself. "Oh, my, God. I thought I lost you." I smile. I had to steal these from Flowers party. Her parents bought these from thieves for all I know. 

They were on a trip to Italy and this guy, Coal Burner, went up to them and sold the ring and bracelet to Flowers parents, Rose and Daisy. The ring and bracelet was stolen from a museum a few months ago located in Seoul Korea. The suspect was Coal. He got into the museum and somehow got the keys to one of the glass containers. He took both of them and took pictures of them to show it off to his friends. After that he flew to Italy and sold it to Flowers parents. Coal Burner is now in jail and he'll stay there for a long damn time.

I hear a knock to my door. "Leafy, can I come in." I hear Firey's voice say.

"One moment." I yell. I start combing my hair with my hands and walk to the door and open it. "Is this your room?" I ask, motioning for him to come in.

He shakes his head and walks to the bed and sits on it. "Nope, it's a guest bed room." He smiles brightly. I gasp. Damn. This room is so fucking huge.

I sit next to him and smile back. "Damn, this is like the size of my whole damn living room. So you really are a rich ass." I smile and look around.

He laughs and nods. "Yeah. So how are you feeling right now? You fell asleep last night and when I tried looking for Pin and Coiny I found out they left already. I bet they were having sex." He runs a hand through his hair before speaking again. "I took you to my place."

I smile and nod. I remember everything. It was all going perfect and everything was happening the way it was supposed to. The way the plan was supposed to be. "Oh, maybe that's why I'm here." I play dumb. "I guess I changed by myself?" I ask, looking at the oodie.

He nods. "You woke up when I was carrying you here. I gave you that oodie." 

I turn red. He carried me. I stare at my fingers and I can feel my embarrassment rise.

He starts shaking his head. "No, no, no, no. You weren't heavy at all. You were actually pretty light." He then grabs my chin and lifts it up. "Don't feel embarrassed." He says with a big ass smirk on his face.

I laugh and slap his hand off his face. "Alright, alright. Where's your washroom I need to piss." 

He stands up and I follow him. "You should grab your clothes too so you can change while you're at it." 

I nod and grab my outfit from yesterday's party from the nightstand. "Alright, but I need to piss." 

He nods and he points up to the curved staircase. "Up there, take a left and you'll see the washroom. I'll be in the kitchen over there making breakfast." He says pointing to the kitchen. I nod and start walking up the stairs. 

I kinda feel like a princess cause of how long and fancy these stairs are. I make it upstairs and I start looking around. There is a security camera in each hall. I'll make a mental note of that. I opened one door with a sign saying no unauthorized guest allowed. An office, perfect. I walk more in and see a vault.  This is where it'll be.

I chuckle and leave the room. I then walk to the washroom to take a piss and change. I then walk down the fancy stairs and into the kitchen. I smell warm pancakes and syrup. I see Firey flipping pancakes and wearing an apron saying 'the best sexiest chef.'

"Nice apron." I say.

He chuckles and puts a warm golden fluffy pancake on a plate. "Thanks. What do you like on your pancakes? Whipped cream? Caramel? Chocolate? Syrup?"

"I like whipped cream and caramel."

He nods and starts putting them on my pancakes along with strawberries and pancakes on the side. He holds two plates one for him and one for me.

"Eat up." He says. "You're watching me box."

I take a bite of his food and my taste buds go crazy. "What the fuck. This taste good as fuck." I say with excitement dripping in my voice.

He nods and chuckles taking a bite of his food as well. Then I feel a punch to my stomach. No, Firey didn't punch me. I feel horrible. Almost guilty. I never feel this guilt for a boy or for any mission. I hate that I do feel this way. 

Firey tucks a hair away from my face and looks at me with a concerned face. I hate that he does this to me but I allow him for some damn reason. It makes me feel peaceful that I don't normally feel. 

"You good? Are the pancakes bad?" He says.

I shake my head and smile. "Nah, I just remembered something sad."

He tilts his head to the side and frowns a bit. "What? Speak up. What did you remember?" 

I shake my head and act chill. "Nah, I'd rather not. Lets just finish breakfast and I'll watch your boxing." 

He nods and we both continue to finish the breakfast. 

He takes my plate and puts it in the sink. "I can wash that." I offer.

He shakes his head and waves his hand. "Nope. Not letting you. You're the guest, plus I have people to do that." 

I raise an eyebrow. "If you have people to do that for you then why don't you have a five star chef?" 

He shrugs. "We do. But I'd rather cook. You see I like cooking so the chef, Olive, he teaches me how. That's why my pancakes are so damn good." He boasts.

I roll my eyes. "Alright."

...

I sit in a chair and watch Firey fucking shirtless fight a guy. I watch him kick the guy in the stomach and it sends the guy flying. While he does this he slicks back his hair. He's covered in sweat. Lots of sweat.

The guy stands up and hits Firey in the face. Ouch that's got to hurt. Blood drips from his mouth and he frowns upon seeing this. He punches the guy straight in the jaw and it causes him to fall again. I bite my nails and my excitement rises.

God why am I so into this. 

The ref comes and starts counting to ten.

"One, two, three-"

Firey glances at me and I turn red. I can't let him know that I'm fucking drooling for his abs. 

Then Firey gets hit in the face by the guy. I had no idea he got back up. Firey spits out blood and they take a break.

He drinks a bit of water and wipes his sweat off with a towel. I walk to the corner of the arena and whisper.

"Hey. Firey." 

He turns to me and grins. "What's up?"

I smile ear to ear and give him a thumbs up. "You're doing great." I praise.

He smiles even more. "If I win promise you'll do me something?"

I nod. "What's that rich-ass?"

He laughs. "If I win I get to take you out to dinner. My choice. I'm picking. Oh, and it'll be tomorrow. Tomorrow night."

Before I can even answer he stands up and goes to finish the fight with the guy. For some reason the only thing I can hear is the beating of my heart. I frown. Why. I can't be doing this. I can't.

The knot in my stomach gets bigger and I look back up at Firey beating the guy. It's too late. I already accepted it, I can't turn back time and not accept the request. I'm already here. Doing the mission. It's too late.

He punches the guy and it makes him fall.

"One, two, three, four, five-"

Firey's breathing is getting heavier every second.

"Six, seven, eight, nine, ten!"

Firey's face lights up and he looks at me. He's beaming with joy and I give him a comforting smile.

Me mouths. "I won." 

I nod and give him a thumbs up. He won all right.

...

"Leafy! I fucking won! Did you see how I beat that guy up." He comes out still shirtless and covered in sweat. The only thing different is that he has a golden medal. He starts taking the medal off and handing it to me.

"Hold it and look at it." 

A golden medal with an imprint of boxing gloves. It has 'first' written on it. I smile brightly. "I'm proud of you." I say.

"You better cause I'm taking you out to dinner. It wasn't easy getting first Leafs." He says with a cheeky grin.

Leafs... The only people who called me by that are people I hold close in my heart. Pin, Four, X. Only those. But I guess I'll let Firey call me.

I smile and hand him the medal back. "Go shower and change you stink!" I laugh and tease playfully.

He laughs too. "Alright smart-ass!" He takes the medal back and goes into the change room.

I've never felt so guilty and happy at the same time.

I take my earring and put it to my ear. 

"I have the ring and bracelet." 

"Good. Now continue the mission with the Smoke family." 

"Yes." I say with guilt.
