A Thief on Christmas Eve

“Why? Do you think it makes a difference? That it’s not really a crime to take back what was stolen before?”

“No. No, I don’t think it makes a difference,” Romeo replied.

“I’m a felon. I commit crimes. That’s what it is. Retrieving things, as you call it just…well, that way at least it all makes a little sense.”

“Why do you steal things if you don’t like it?”

“You’re not listening. I said it doesn’t make much sense. I didn’t say I don’t like it.”

“So you do like it? Is that why you do it?”

Romeo exhaled his breath in a weary sigh. “I have bills to pay like everybody else, and this is what I happen to be good at.”

“Have you ever considered a career change?”

This time Romeo did roll his eyes, and he let out a quiet chuckle.

“You’re not going to make me a converted man, Jules,” he said in a soft tone.

“Maybe not. But I’m going to make you a convicted man. Hold out your hands, please.” Julian flicked the cuffs.

“You’re not listening, Agent Harris. I said I knew this was a setup.”

“You mean as in…?”

“Uh-huh.” Romeo nodded. “Somebody tipped me off.”

“Why did you come anyway?”

Romeo looked as though Julian had just asked him why grass was green. He held up a little box. “To get this, of course.”

Julian’s breath caught in his chest, and heat welled up in his cheeks. “But…how did you get this? You’ve only just arrived and—”

“Oh, Jules.” Romeo regarded him for a moment with an amused expression on his face before he said, “You don’t believe I’d let myself get cornered if I didn’t already have what I wanted, do you?”

“Maybe not,” Julian replied with a confidence he didn’t feel. “But you don’t believe I’d let you get away with it, do you?”

“What makes you think I’d need you to let me get away?”
