My eyes widened as he pulled away when the police sirens grew quiet and their lights faded away into the glum darkness of the alley.
"Sorry for that princess, told you to shut up." 05 said with a guilty chuckle. The red-haired man slung my purse over his shoulder. "We'll be going now. Thanks for the show," he winked. The trio rode away in the rusty motorbike, leaving me confused and disheveled.
Luckily, my phone had fallen out of my purse and they hadn't noticed. I bent down and picked it up. I immediately rang my best friend Noah and told him to pick me up.

05's POV
We drove away in the motorcycle. The engine's soft hum and the night's cool wind carressed my face but I couldn't bring myself to stop thinking about the girl. I instantly felt guilty about kissing her, even though I guess it couldn't count as a kiss. I mean I just put my lips on hers to shut her up.She was insanely beautiful and I could tell she wasn't having the best night. Her outfit was drenched in what smelled like cheap alcohol, overwhelming her sweet perfume. This caused her skimpy, revealing top and white jeans to tighten and shape around her every curve, flaunting her figure. I really felt bad for her. We do this every day, robbing people, but tonight was just.. different.
We stopped in a dark street away from the city. "Come on, 05, let's turn in the bag to Hades." Norman ordered, getting one foot off the bike and throwing the full sack of stolen items, sending a cocky grin my way with his yellow teeth. "You do know I have a name don't you?" I spat, "I don't go around calling you 07, now do I?"
He looked at me boldly and crossed his arms over his chest, "Hurry up kid, I mean, Sam, I wanna go home." He rolled his eyes and let down his brick-red hair. "A little more respect, 'kay?" I snapped. "I'm going now."
I tossed the bag onto my shoulder and walked towards a small, abandoned-looking 2-floored house. Opening the front door with my key, I made my way to the room which I always ended up in. "Hades. It's Sam, here's what we caught today," I sighed, banging on his bedroom door.
Hades opened the door. The room was filled with a thick smoke and the stench of weed. There was a drunk woman hanging onto him by his neck with her claw-like hot pink acrylic nails, wearing a barely-there jean skirt and a very tight tank top. She proudly sported a trail of hickeys down her neck. Her hair looked out of control, full of frizz and going everywhere that it shouldn't. She was a hot mess.
"Hey nephew," he slurred. "Thanks.." the woman ripped the purse out of the bag. "Ooh.. Me like thissss. Can I keep it, Hades? Pleeease?" She purred tipsily, shifting to a high-pitched tone. "Yuh." Hades groaned. "You can go now.. Andrea and I have to.. --talk." He added, pausing, and giving the woman a seductive look.
I quickly left and shut the door behind me. My uncle's sex life definitely doesn't concern me. After informing Norman he could go, I walked across the living room again and locked myself in my room.
God help me. This is my every-day.

Maggie's POV
The car quickly pulled up. An annoyed Noah sat in the front seat. "Damn, Maggie! What happened?" So I told him about the party, and Bea disappearing, and me getting robbed, but I left out the part about this stranger kissing me, for obvious reasons."Oh shit. That sounds terrible.. Are you okay?" he asked, tightening his grip on the steering wheel. "Yeah, it's ok.. I'm fine. Just had like $20 in my wallet, and nothing really important that I can think of," I told him. "I just got pushed around a little, but I'm fine.." I sighed. "I'm really glad they didn't take my phone though, or I would be stuck there," I told him.
"Yeah but it's all okay now." Noah said. "Anyway, do you want me to leave you at your house?" He asked. "Uh.." I stammered. "Actually.. Would you mind if I stayed at yours? I told my parents I was staying over at Bea's, and I don't want them to worry."
"Sure," Noah smiled.
