Criminal Affairs

Chapter 5

"Are you sure you don't want me to go in with you?" Matt asks me sitting in the car.
"No I'll be OK. Alex's buddy said that there are 3 guys in there. I just have to find out where they are and get the money while you're handling the cars." I go over the plan once more.
"Ready?" I ask him.
"Yeah" he answers getting out of the car. We parked a few houses down from the guy's place so we have to walk.
"Be careful." Matt says once we reach the guys house. I nod and walk around to the side of the house. I peak into one of the living room windows, I see 2 guys and it looks like they're smoking weed. I look around and try to find a ladder. I go around back and find one near a shed. I put it against the house and climb up to a bedroom window. I peak in to make sure no one is in there I then open it and climb in. I go inside the closet and see the safe. It takes a few minutes, but I open the safe and put the money in my bag. After I zip up my bag I'm practically thrown at the wall.
"Who the hell are you?" I look up at an average looking guy. I thought he would be more intimidating.
"Would you believe me if I said a stripper?" I joke which leads to me being kicked in the rib making me wince.
"Somebody isn't getting a lap dance." I say getting up from the floor. I kick him in the stomach, then push him out of the way so I can get out of the closet. He grabs my ankle and before I can get free he pulls me to the floor. He gets up and begins kicking me again. He finally stops and I take the opportunity to get up even though it hurts. He tries to go through my bag thinking I'm still on the floor. I grab the Lamp on the table and hit him on the head with it. He lands on the floor unconscious. I go out the window, down the ladder and over to Matt.
"What happened to you!?" He asks, noticing me holding my side.
"Don't worry about it. Is everything ready?" I ask ready to go.
"Yep. Would you like to do the honors?" He asks, handing me the remote I take the remote and press the button. Me and Matt run to the car. I ignore the pain for a minute not really having a choice. When we get in the car I see car parts fly everywhere and a lot of smoke.
"Thank you so much for doing this with me." I thank Matt.
"You don't have to thank me, I volunteered."
"So what happened to your side?" Matt asks me.
"This guy caught me after I got the money. I'll have a few bruises, but I'll be fine." I try not to make it seem like a big deal.
"You could have a broken rib. You need to go to the hospital!"
"What am I suppose to tell them? Oh, I just broke into this dudes house, stole all of his money, then blew his and a few other peoples cars up." I say sarcastically which came off a little harsh.
"I'm sorry I was just joking. I'll be fine though, don't worry about me." I lean over hurting a little and kiss his cheek making him smile. We drop the money off where Alex told us to then head home. When we get home it's 2 am. I go up to my room and there's no Cam. He must have slept in his room tonight. Before we left I told him me and Matt we're hanging out because I couldn't come up with anything more detailed. I get in the shower. When I get out my sides and stomach are already starting to turn a different color. I walk down stairs after I'm dressed because I feel wide awake. I see Sam sitting on the couch on his phone. I walk slowly and quietly behind the couch.
"Boo!" I yell. He jumps off of the couch. When he sees it's me he laughs and sits back down. I sit next to him and snuggle up to his side.
"Cold?" He asks and I nod yes. He grabs the blanket that's in one of the chairs and covers me up.
"Thanks"
"Cam is really pissed" He mentions after a few seconds of silence.
"Why?"
"I don't know, he didn't say."
"I'll talk to him later." I groan.
"Nash told me where you went. You really love Cam don't you?" He asks.
"Yeah."
"He loves you too."
"I know." I smile thinking about Cam.
"Let's play truth or dare!" Sam cheers.
"Ok." I laugh, feeling like a kid in middle school. "Truth or dare?"
"Truth"
"Whimp" I joke at him. "Hmm... Do you love me?" I smirk.
"I don't know, I'll let you know." He smiles. "Truth or dare?"
"Dare."
"Go in Nates room and steal his weed."
"That's easy." I walk upstairs and open Nates door trying to be quiet. I tiptoe over to his bedside table and open the top drawer. I grab the bag and make my way back over to the door.
"Since when do you smoke weed baby girl?" Nate asks right before I open the door.
"Dammit! I'll bring it back later and don't tell Sam I woke you up."
"Ok." He laughs. I go back downstairs and show Sam.
"Good job." He claps
"Truth or dare?"
"Dare"
"Make an ice cream sundae on Hayes's face."  We grab the things we need and go up to Hayes's room. We put plastic wrap on his pillow so It doesn't make a total mess. Sam, puts ice cream, chocolate syrup, whip cream and a cherry on his cheek. Hayes doesn't wake up the whole time.
"Truth or dare?" Sam asks once we're back down stairs.
"Truth"
"Would you rather be with me or Matt?" He asks smirking.
"I don't know, I'll let you know."
We play two more rounds before I go upstairs and fall asleep.

I wake up and walk downstairs. I'm almost at the bottom of the stairs when I hear yelling. I look in the kitchen and see it's Cam and Matt. I move around them and make some coffee before getting into it.
"What's going on?" I ask after I finish my coffee.
Matt walks out the door while Cam goes upstairs. I follow him to his room.
"Cam?" Silence.
"Caaam" I sing. Silence.
"Cameron!" I yell.
"Did you sleep with him?" He asks, sitting down on the bed.
"No, is that what it was about? We were just hanging out. Nothing happened." I sit next to him. "I couldn't do that with someone I don't love. And the only person I love is you." I smile, his eyes light up and he finally looks at me. He hugs me tight, putting pressure on my bruises making me wince.
"What?" He asks confused.
"My side just hurts a little. I think I did something in my sleep." He reaches for the bottom of my shirt.
"Cam it's nothing." I assure him, but he continues to lift my shirt up.
"What the fuck happened!?" He yells staring at my stomach. I look down and see purple and blue.
"I fell off the bed." Was the first thing that came to my mind.
"You don't get that from falling off the bed! Did Matt do this!? I swear if he-"
"Matt didn't do it, calm down!" I yell.
"Then what happened?"
"I.. had to work last night. Me and Alex made an agreement that if I did that then he would leave you alone." I explain to him.
"You shouldn't have done that. I can take care of myself." He sighs.
"I just didn't want to take any chances."
"Promise me you want go without me again?"
"Fine." I mumble laying down.
"Thank you" He kisses me. He starts leaving pecks all over my face.
"Cam!" I giggle. When he stops we just lay there. "I can't believe you were jealous of Matt." I laugh playing with the strings on his hoodie. "Is that why you were pissed off last night?"
"I just really love you."
"I love you too."
I get a text from Sam telling me to come downstairs. So I go down there and Hayes had apparently just woken up. He has melted ice cream all over his face.
"You guys are dead!" He points at me and Sam.
"It wasn't me! It was Sam!" I hold my hands up innocently. Sam glares at me.
Hayes goes over to the sink and washes his face.
"Has Matt came back?" I ask everybody. They all say no. I text him and ask him where he's at. He doesn't text me back so he's either driving or mad at me.
"He'll be back later." Sam says hugging me from behind. "I'm going to get in the shower." He kisses my cheek then goes upstairs. Hayes walks down the stairs with an empty bottle of syrup in one hand and a trash bag in the other.
"I replaced Sam's shampoo with syrup and stole all of the towels." I nod understandingly. "I need help getting all of his clothes. Since you helped Sam it's only fair to help me." We go into Sam's room with a box of trash bags. We start with the closet after that we go through the drawers packing all of his clothes. We hide the trash bags in Nash's closet.
"Hayes!" We hear Sam yell from downstairs. I walk to the second floor and Sam has his head poked out of his bedroom door.
"What's wrong?" I ask trying not to laugh.
"You helped him didn't you?" He accuses.
"Sorry I don't know what you're talking about." I shrug.
"I'll just look for my clothes." He groans walking out from behind the door holding his junk.
"You smell like syrup." I laugh when he walks by me which earns me a glare.

"Where are they?" Sam asks coming into my room after 30 minutes of looking. Me and Hayes continue watching TV making Sam groan. I toss him a blanket to cover up with. I unintentionally start staring at him.
"Like what you see?" He smirks.
"Psh you wish." I revert my attention back to the TV. Sam sits in the chair for a few more minutes before Hayes finally tells him where his clothes are. He throws me the blanket.
"Ew, no, just keep it." I toss it back to him.
