Lucy's pov

Chapter one: crime and tears

Uncle siva and I were at the store, and I wanted candy. " uncle siva, can I get it pwease?" When I want something I can be VERY convincing. " sorry, babylove. You refused to eat lunch, so no can do, babylove." He Informs me. I beg cutely" pwease ? I want it, pwease !"  

He says, stern with a dose of firm," Lucy Skye. No means no, and that's how it works.  

Unless you want me to smack your bottom, I suggest you zip it, little girl. " I can tell he's a bit mad. Uncle siva only uses little girl when I'm In trouble. Otherwise, it's babylove. My uncles and daddy Jay all have nicknames for me. Uncle Nathan calls me" Chiquita", uncle Max calls me" love bug, or lovey" uncle siva calls me"babylove"' Uncle Tom calls me " luc or babe"' daddy jay calls me "small fry or Skye." Daddy jay really likes my middle name. He says it's unique. Before I go off on a bunny trail, how bout we get back to what happened ? Uncle siva and I go to check out, and I get a totally brilliant idea. If I put my candy in one of the bags, no one will be the wiser, right? Wrong.  

I stash my candy in with the milk, and nobody notices. About ten minutes later, we walk out the automatic doors. That's when I hear the alarm.

Siva's pov

As Lucy and I exit the door, I hear an alarm go off. A lady security officer walks up to us.  

She quizzes" sir, do you know why the alarm went off?"  

I reply" no ma'am. I don't."  

She tells me" it appears that something in your basket hasn't been paid for." I am so shocked. She can't possibly be accusing us of shoplifting, can she?

She continues" sir, I need your receipt, and I'm gonna have to check your basket."  

I agree, not knowing that she's actually going to find something. She starts to systematically search. The lady says" been found. All clear." Into her radio. I'm not sure what that means, it must be cop speak. She reattaches her radio to her belt. After that, the officer holds up a toblerone chocolate bar. She informs me" on the receipt it shows that this hasn't been paid for. Do you know anything about that?"  

" no ma'am. I don't. My niece might, though. " I glance down at Lucy, only to realize that she's stashed herself behind my legs. I reach around, and pull a very scared little girl out. I snap" Lucy. Explain. Now."  

The security officer gets down on Lucy's level. She questions "Lucy, did you take it?"  

Lucy doesn't respond. I bet I can change that, though. I lightly swat her bottom, and she confesses "I did, but only cause he said no. I wanted it."  

The officer clarifies "okay, so your uncle refused to buy it, so you shoplifted it. Is that right?" Lucy won't answer. I prompt "verbal answer, please."  

Lucy nods and whispers "yes".  

Thirty minutes later, the lady lets us go. I take Lucy to the car, then warn her" I'm gonna tell daddy what you did, little girl."  

She starts to beg, but begging doesn't phase me. We arrive home, and I put Lucy in one arm and the groceries in the other.

Jay's pov

Siva comes in with Lucy. They've just gotten back from the grocery store, and my brother is pissed. He sets Skye on the floor and then takes the groceries to the kitchen. I hoist Skye into my arms, then go into the kitchen. Twenty minutes later, siva informs me "hey Lucy, you, and I need to have a
