Switched: The Complete Series

Chapter Ten- Banks are dangerous

{THREE MONTHS LATER}

~~Natalie's point of view~~

Things have been crazy but great. Charity and Cherish both know about River and me, so we don't hide in front of them. We all get along great. Charity is closer to River, and I'm closer to Cherish. We've made it ninety days with no incidents. We've even managed to get the girls out of the house with Devon and Luna's help. That's been a change too. They've stayed over a lot. River and I don't mind. He likes having another man in the house.

I'm leaving work early today to take Charity to the doctor. We live close to the Alabama line. We're crossing state lines to take her to urgent care. All of us are going, including Luna. I was able to talk Harvey into letting her leave too. She stayed last night, so We both decided just to ride together.

Charity: "Luna, Devon, since you two are ready, why don't we make breakfast this morning. Give River and Natalie time to get ready."

Luna: "How about Devon and I do it, and you relax? You are too sick to be cooking."

Cherish: "I can help."

Charity: "That works."

Cherish joins them in the kitchen. Charity looks at me and winks. I love that she helps us out. Even though we share beds with the "others," nothing more than kissing happens.

I head upstairs first. River comes up a few minutes after.

River: "I love Charity."

Natalie: "Me too."

River: "Shower?"

River loves shower sex.

River: "Please?"

We both jump in the shower. It doesn't take us long to release; we finish showering and get out. We have become masters of quickies. We both get satisfaction, though. River gets ready first. He kisses me.

River: "I love you."

Natalie: "I love you too."

He goes downstairs while I finish getting ready. I finish up and head down. We bought a bigger table, so everyone had a place to sit. We all eat. Luna and I are about to leave.

Devon: "We're all meeting here at one?"

River: "Yes."

Devon worries about the girls during the day. He checks in with River a lot. It's odd, but we have all become quite close.

Natalie: "We need to go, Luna."

Luna: "We do."

The morning was busy. As a loan officer, things can be busy. I haven't had a chance to do anything, but I have to go to the bathroom, so I make my way there. As I come out of the bathroom, I'm greeted by something I'd never thought I'd see in this town. A masked man with a gun.

Masked man: "On your hands and knees."

We were being robbed. There are only five of us here, Luna, Harvey, Gina, Molly, and myself. The robber has a nine-millimeter gun. He points to me.

Masked man: "You. Get up."

I know that voice. I stand up.

Masked man: "Walk Behind the counter. Take all the money out of every drawer. Don't make any sudden moves."
