WANTED [Sweeran AU Book]

Intro

His feet firm against the floor. His hands deep inside his pockets. His eyes fierce and curious eyeing each corner of the room. But his strange actions stupidly calling the attention of a police officer, who started to feel curious about the ginger guy walking around the room weirdly. 

Ed tried hard to act normal, he knows he's building tension in the room. He knows police has his eyes on him. He stopped behind a sculture and took a couple of pictures after putting on his big glasses and baseball cap as discreet as he could with the intention of looking like an innocent student. Younger than his real age. He wasn't the best actor, neither a discreet person.

"Excuse me", a guy about Ed's age said, heading to the next exposition. Ed followed, recognizing the guy as his partner. 

"Dave talking, Room 15 - G. I report a suspicious ginger guy. He walked into the Diamond Room after spending an hour on the Egyptian Exposition."  the police officer said through his radio.

"Got it. Thanks." 

Ed wasn't an idiot, he started to work out his plan as fast as he could because he knew time was running just as police heading to the room. 

"Damn!", he exclaimed dropping his bag on purpose.

"It's okay. Let me help you." the guy he entered the room with, said kneeling to pick up Ed's things.

Both kneeled down and picked up everything. That was the moment for his partner, Ron, to hand him a plastic gun and start the game aka best performance of their lives. With a smirk, Ed stood up fast and waved the gun to get everyone's attention. 

"Everyone to the floor! And you, hands up!" Ed said pointing to his partner, Ron. 

Ron did what Ed said. Everything was planned so there were no mistakes. Nobody could end hurt because there was no danger on Ed's actions, only scare.

"Stop!" the police said.

"One step more and you'll regret it man!" Ed warned pointing at Ron with the plastic gun that nobody noticed was fake. Dave, the police man, did so and watched how Ed broke the glass to take out a medium size diamond which perfectly got into his pocket as a rock would. It made everyone wonder... why didn't he take the rest of the jewelry?
