Lost Girl

The Stolen Wallet

Courtney Lane, “nerd’ by day and party princess by night. After a night long full of shots, grinding, and endless flirting, she finds herself making out with some rando she met on the floor. She pulls back before continuing, because she always wants to know who she’s gonna do it with only to see Brent Temp, her school’s ultimate “bad boy”. Ha, the only thing bad about him is his breath. Before he notices who she is she continues her kiss and runs her hands down his back, all the way down to his...wallet. Jackpot! She slips it out and into her own dress’ hidden pocket before breaking off the kiss and running out of the room. Fortunately she’s met with a huge crowd of dancing idiots and she blends in perfectly. She soon gets bored and decides to head home and explore her new treasure.

(after calling an uber and getting home)

Ugh, god that creepy uber driver wouldn’t stop staring at my boobs in the mirror. I was gonna call him out but I really wanted to just go home and kiss my sister goodnight. Besides it’s not like I could really blame him...I mean I’m not flat if you know what I mean. Anyway as soon as I get home I’m met with the smell of popcorn and rootbeer. I look to my couch and see the girl I pay to babysit, Vanessa, chilling out and watching Gossip Girl on netflix. “Hey Ness” I call out when she doesn’t notice me.

“Oh Hey Courtney, how was your night?” she asks smiling brightly. She’s a nice kid, two years younger than me. She’s a sophomore while I’m a senior. We go to the same school and when I met her in dance class I asked if she babysat, and to my luck she said yes. Ever since she’s been babysitting my little sister when I go out, which is like every night, so I allow her to sleep over sometimes and she has her own room since my house is pretty big.

“It was okay...not the best. I was trying out a new club tonight”. Nessy is the only one I let in the school know about my partying ways. Apparently her parents and her don’t really get along so she practically lives with me. Because of the we’ve become close and she’s like family to me, and I know that she adores my little sister Sierra. She’s four and the cutest thing ever!

“Oh that’s always fun. So Sierra was great and I put her to bed about an hour ago...which means she’ll be waiting for you upstairs fighting off sleep”. I laugh at that because yes, she doesn’t go to sleep without me which makes it easier for me to get home early.

“Thank you Nessy, you’re the best. But now it’s late and time for you to get to bed, I’ll be up in a minute to say goodnight.

“Okay!” she smiles, hugging me tightly. “Thank you Court, for everything.

“Anytime lovely” I say and kiss the crown of her head before she heads upstairs.

I grab some chips from the pantry and throw them in my room, the master bedroom, upstairs in between the girl’s rooms’ before heading in to say goodnight to Sierra. I find her asleep next to her nightlight on the rug and lift her up and onto her bed bridal-style. I tuck her in with her favorite blanket and turn out the nightlight after kissing her forehead and telling her I love her. Then i head into Vanessa’s room to talk to her.

“So what happened?” I ask because she seems off today.

“This jerk in your grade spread a rumor around school that I slept with him”she starts crying.

“Who is he I will kill him” I say, completely serious.

“It’s that guy..you know? Brent something…”

“...Brent Temp, right?”

“Yeah, that one”she sniffles into her pillow.

“Ugh that's the guy I was making out with earlier...but he doesn’t know it was me” I tell her and she shoots straight up.

“Did you ditch him?” she asks with a hopeful smile.

“Yeah and I stole his wallet too!” I say with a grin on my face.

“Good” she beams and I tuck her into bed.

“Goodnight Nessa, I love you”.

“I love you too Court, thank you”.

I head into my room and pull out bad boy’s wallet...Time to have some fun.
