Sterling's POV
It was awful.The fight between us only made us distance ourselves further apart from each other.It was killing me.
Although,I don't know if it was killing me as much as it killed her back when we were in fifth grade.
"Sterling,get back here! Bowser came back from Florida." Blair called on me and ushered me to get into his office.
"Bowser!" I greeted him with a hug and he pulled back after awhile.
He was still the same,with his beard and same sweet smile of his.Only his fashion sense has kind of altered.
He was wearing a beach suit like he was going on a holiday or something.I mean he did came back from Florida,and the view when the sun sets is spectacular .
"Bowser,what are you wearing?" I pointed out and he chuckled.
"We've got a new catch.Are you up for it?" Bowser asked,sitting down.
"Always." Blair answered with a genuine excitement.
I needed this.I needed a distraction and some exciting adventure again.
"This man called Andre Lopez,he's involved with some drug activity and a few trespassing.He has been on the MIA,and nobody has ever seen him since he bailed on his last charges."
"It's basically like a telenovela." Blair concluded and I smirked.
"I don't think so but he has a cool spanish name." I commented.
"He is Hispanic." Bowser confirmed.
"Great...we're going to be in a telenovela." Blair said and I nodded along.
"I need you two to track his bank accounts and credit card to see if he had use any of them for the past few months."
"I will check on some of the guys to see if they can help in a lead."
Bowser made some calls outside while we got to work on the computer.Bowser has really opened our minds and knowledge on being a bounty hunter.
We've learned a lot from him and we're thankful to have him as our friend.
"You know I talked with April the other day in school and she seems pretty guilty about the whole thing." Blair started as she typed away on the computer.
"Well yeah but we've gotten more distant.It's worse than the fight we had on debate.Well,it wasn't exactly a fight more of a breakthrough for both of us."
"What did you say?" Blair asked,and I sighed.
"About fifth grade."
"Fifth grade? That's like years ago,Sterling."
"I know,i know but it meant so much to her.I tried apologising to her once and twice this time but sometimes I think we're better off being enemies."
Blair stopped typing and gave me a side hug.
"It's going to be fine.Just give her space." She advised,which was weird coming from Blair.
"Did you have a weird snack today because you never gave me a good advice." I teased and she laughed.
"Heyyy!" She pushed me playfully and stopped.
"Maybe because I learnt something from love." She gave a side smirk before continuing with the task.
"Okay girls,I got a lead on a bonfire party at the beach tonight.Andre will be there,making deals with a few teenagers and also other potential buyers." Bowser went back in the office and both of us looks up.
"He made his first transactions in months near the gas station a few streets away.He's definitely going to the beach tonight." Blair updated and Bowser nods.
"Okay,good work.Both of you go get change into a more beach outfit and meet me at the beach at 9."
"Okay." Both of us said in unison and drove back home.
Apparently,both of Mom and Dad wasn't in the house since they're celebrating their anniversary today.
We cleaned up and got changed.I decided to wear a white button up shirt with patterns of the flowers with ripped blue denim jeans.
As for Blair,she's going to wear a black crop top with jeans.
Blair and I munched on the nachos while we scroll through out socials.I am still learning how to do the new dance.
I would choose Dylan'O Brien over Tyler any time of the day,he's so cute.
"Okay,we gotta leave soon." Blair said and looked at the clock.
We finished up the nachos and started getting ready.I hid my gun behind my jeans just in case.I mean this is a drug deal,anything could happen just like last time.
I brought my phone and the rest of belongings before giving the car keys to Blair.
Blair drove us there and Bowser was there,waiting at the parking lot.
We went out and head over to him.He seems pretty nervous which I would be usually.
"You girls ready? I need you to play undercover at the party and ask around for anyone whose selling drugs tonight.From there,it can lead to Andre."
"Okay...but we're not going to purchase them right? Drugs are bad for you,you know." I questioned because we don't seem like the type of people to get drugs.
"Just play it cool and if it's really going to lead us to Andre,just get it." Bowser instructed and we nodded.
"Text me once you got the deal.I'll be not far from here."
We walked to beach and found the bonfire party immediately.Teenagers listening to music while some were making out in a corner.Drinks were on the table and some other people chilling by the fire.
We approached the party and a girl greeted us.It was the girl from the community centre,the one who was in my group.
"Oh hey,it's you." The girl said,and I smiled.
"Urm...hi.It's Sterling." I handed out my hand and she didn't take it.
"Sorry,I don't do handshakes but I'm Malia."
"Cool,hi Malia." Blair joined in and all of us stood there,weirdly.
"Okay...I'm gonna smoke pot.You can come find me by the fire,if you want." She said before leaving us.
"That's nice.Is she your friend?" Blair asked,taking a drink from the table.
"Not really but she's from community centre." I said and grabbed the drink out of Blair's hands.
"There's alcohol and no liquid consumption during the job."
"Geez,you sound just like Bowser." I huffed and puts down the drink.
"Okay,we're supposed to find Andre and people who might want to buy drugs tonight." We surveyed the party and I think I have an idea.
"I can ask Malia,if she's smoking pot,she's probably knows about drugs too,right?" I suggested and Blair nods in agreement.We took the drinks and went to the bonfire.
Malia was sitting there with a bunch of other people,laughing while smoking.
We had to play it cool.
"Hey guys,mind if we join?" Blair asked and all of them had their eyes on us.It was scary.
"Yeah,come sit by me." I took a seat next to Malia while Blair sat on my left.
The rest of them started having their own conversation and Malia looks at the both of us.
"So what brings you to the party?" She inhales a puff and blows it to us.I held myself back from coughing.
This smells really bad.
"You know to party and get some fun stuff,you know."I answered and she was still unconvinced.
"Like drugs." Blair elaborated and I choked on my drink.
"You guys do drugs? I find that hard to believe."
She arched her eyebrows and takes another puff.
Blair proves her point by taking a puff and inhaling it out.She coughs a little but still manages fine.
"See?" Blair said,bringing the cup to her lips as she drinks it down.
Now,she was convinced and scoffs.
"This guy is bringing in drugs.He's at that house level 2.Don't be scared but he's got 2 bodyguards."
She points at the beach house nearest to us.
I gulped and nodded as we take in the information.Andre was probably some mafia drug dealer.
I turned to Blair and our twin powers activated.
"You know what I'm thinking..."
"That Andre might be some mafia drug dealers."
"This is dangerous,we should ask Bowser to bring backup."
"But do we have time,they might leave if we don't hurry."
"We should just update Bowser and see how it goes."
"Okay,thanks Malia." I turned away from Blair and both of stood up,walking back to the parking lot.
"Andre is at the beach house and he's making the deals there."
"Okay,good job.You and Blair go up first and I'll follow from behind."
"They have 2 bodyguards and maybe guns.Don't you think we should have a backup?" I warned and Bowser took in the information.
"If it's too dangerous,I could handle it myself." Bowser suggested.
"No,we won't let you go there alone.We're coming." Blair protested and Bowser sighs and nodded.
We both go in as planned and went up to the beach house.I was nervous and check my back pocket again for the gun.
Okay,good.
There were two bodyguards just like Malia said and we approached them.
"Hi,we're here for the drugs." Blair started and the bodyguards look at us,unconvinced just like any other person.I mean we don't look like drug addicts.
"We really are.Drugs are amazing...and I take it everyday you know.I mean I've been to rehab a couple times but it's just ..."Â The bodyguards were moved by my act and opened the door.
I texted Bowser about the bodyguards and look up to see Andre.
"Hi ladies,how can I help you? I couldn't help but overheard that you guys are drug addicts.I've been to rehab too you know." Andre stood up and look us from up to down.
"Yeah...you know us,drug addicts." I replied and gave Blair a side glance.
"So we're here for the drugs..how much a bag?" Blair continued,sticking to the point.
"30 bucks for a bag and I would give u two girls 5 bucks off."
He took the drugs from a suitcase and took one bag out,handing them to us.
"Boss,get out of here!" The door opened and Bowser was outside fighting with one of the guards.
"It's probably nothing..."I said and laughed sarcastically.
"Who are you two?" He pulls out his gun and Blair and I acted on fast instincts,and took ours out.
"We're bounty hunters,Andre and you're caught." Bowser opened the door and answered,which was badass.
Andre laughs nervously and puts the gun down.
"Okay,okay.You caught me." He puts his hands up and Blair took out her handcuffs.
"Except...I'm not going anywhere with you." He runs to the balcony and jumps down.
"Wait!" I screamed and rushed over to the balcony,looking over for signs of him.
Except he wasn't even downstairs.We went out and found the guards gone.They must've woke up pretty early.
We rushed down with Bowser and they were all gone.
"That doesn't make sense.If he jump down,he could've died.Unless..." I said,connecting his fall and the guards.
"Well,they could've have gone far." Blair commented and was about to start looking around.
"I don't think so.With him and his bodyguards,he won't be coming out again just yet."
"I guess it really is a telenovela..." I muttered and looked at Blair.
We'll catch him again...I know we will.
