How's it going guys and gals? Storyus Raccoonus here with my next story with a really simple name, Unexpected feelings.

It was a common scene at the hideout of the Cooper gang as they needed info for an upcoming heist so they were all sat in the living room waiting for Bentley to get one of his oh so famous slideshows together.

Only four members of the gang were there, Sly, the field woman of the Cooper gang, Murray, the muscle, Bentley, they brains and Penelope, the R.C expert. After Bentley finished getting his projector set up he turned to the rest of the gang to explain what the plan for tonight was, "Okay guys I've figured out how each of us can prepare for the heist." The turtle said in his usual nasally voice as he continued "As we already know, the target is anxious about someone planning to steal his diamond from him so he's really pulled out all the stops with the security. Lucky for us though he's holding an event open to the public to show the diamond off and this will be the perfect opportunity to get some info on the security."

"Wait Bentley why can't we just steal the thing tonight?" Sly asked with obvious confusion and dissapointment in her voice when she heard they weren't pulling off a heist tonight as Bentley replied "Well Sly, this heist is gonna be hard enough during the night so obviously it would be harder when the place is crowded don't you think?" Sly gave an embarrassed look and rubbed the back of her head realising that she probably should have taken that into consideration when she asked her question, "Okay you got me there Bentley."

Bentley gave a victorious nod as he told everyone what they would have to do to get their info for the heist. "Okay, my job is to hack into the security computers to see if Sly will be able to get through. Sly, you have a simple job, you have to go undercover."

Sly instantly gave a frown as she heard Bentley say this ,"Wait, you don't mean-" Sly was about to continue her sentence until Bentley confirmed what she had been dreading. "Now come on Sly you always say that you would do anything for a heist so why can't you do that now?" Bentley said with a sigh since he had seen this coming, ever since they had all met at the orphanage back in 1992 Sly had shown from their very first time seeing eachother that she was a tomboy and proud. Even as a fully grown woman getting Sly to wear anything girly could be considered a miracle and quite ironically to get into where the diamond was being displayed Sly, of course, was going to need formal wear for the occasion.

"No way Bentley! There is no way I am going to wear a dress!" Sly yelled sternly as she crossed her arms and turned her head meaning that was the end of the conversation. "Oh come on Sly, what's wrong with wearing a dress just this once? Besides you're the only one in the gang who can pull this off." Bentley replied in a begging voice and Sly looked over at Penelope and asked "Well why can't Penelope do it?" "Because we need to use Penelope's RC skills to look for any possible ways in other than the front door. Sorry Sly but if you want to be sure this heist can go smoothly you don't have much of a choice." Bentley replied showing Sly that if she didn't have many options.

"Fine." Sly said with a small grumble showing that even though she accepted her job she didn't have to be happy about it. Bentley gave a relieved smile and said to the gang "Okay, so we're all clear, Sly I've already got an outfit ready for you, you should get ready in the van so we can save time."

*Not long later*

All of the gang were in the team van. A red curtain was at the back of the van and Sly was behind it getting ready. When they were outside the mansion Bentley wheeled over to the back of the van and knocked on the wall to get Sly's attension asking "Sly we're here are you ready?" Bentely heard Sly's voice on the other side of the curtain as she replied "Just a sec Bentley."

The female raccoon came from the other side looking embarrassed because of how she was dressed thinking she looked ridiculous. The rest of the gang however thought she looked astonishing, Bentley had done a really good job tailoring the clothes for Sly, she was wearing a blood red dress that stopped just at her knees and had a hole allowing her black ringed tail to stick out the back accompanied by beautiful flower patterns running across the bottom, she also was wearing a pair of red high heeled shoes and along with a stolen jewel encrusted necklace. Last but not least she had her raven black hair flowing freely instead of her usual ponytail. She was also missing her mask making it easier to see her stunning chocolate brown eyes.

"(Whistle) That looks stunning on you Sly, I don't see why you don't dress like that more often." Bentley said as he admired his raccoon friend's attire as she calmly yet sternly replied "We made a deal Bentley, I do this once and I never have to dress like this again."

Bentley gave a sheepish nod and handed Sly an earpiece so they could contact eachother if necessary as Sly jumped out the back of the van and headed inside.

*Inside*

Sly was walking around and made sure no one was looking when she brought her hand up to press a button on the earpiece and asked "Okay Bentley what do I have to do?" "Well you could probably get some important details by striking up conversations with the staff, be careful though Sly, if these people find out what you're up to you're done for." Bentley said in his usual worry wart voice and Sly gave a fake offended gasp and asked "Bentley, when am I not careful?"

As Bentley heard Sly say that he faceplamed and said "Quite often actually."

*3 hours later*

Sly was stood on balcony looking bored and holding a champaigne glass in her hands, through out most of the night Sly had found herself receiving pretty stupid comments, one of the dumbest being "Miss I would say you were more beautiful than a rose on a spring day but that would be an understatement." Sly replied to that with a punch to the gut.

Sly gave a bored sigh and asked into the ear piece "Bentley, do you have enough info yet? I've never been so bored in my entire life."

"I guess, just come back to the van and we can head back to the hideout." Bentley said as Sly gave a thank you and turned around to leave. As she was walking she accidentally bumped into a man taller than her, "Oh I'm sorry, I should have been looking where I was-" Sly didn't continue as she looked up to get a good look at the stranger, he was a raccoon like herself with a black mask around his emerald green eyes and had a tux that must have cost him quite a few euros.

The man gave a smile and said "Oh it's alright, I don't need an apology from a lady as beautiful as you. What's your name miss?"

As he asked this the stranger brought up his hand to gently caress the side of her face making Sly give a small blush in return as she was for the first time in her life at a loss for words. " I...I...I...I'm sorry, I should be going." Sly said as she walked around him to walk away but he grabbed her shoulder and turned her around asking "Woah, what's the rush? I didn't even get your name." the stranger brought her black furred hand up and placed a kiss on it like a man does to show respect making the blush on her cheeks intensify so much you could feel the heat coming off of them. Sly quickly pulled her hand back and walked away leaving him alone on the balcony.

As Sly got back to the van she walked through the backdoor as Murray noticed the red hue on his friends cheeks and confusedly asked "Sly are you blushing?" "Wha- oh! No Murray it's just kind of warm." Sly said with a nervous chuckle which Murray just shrugged off fince it was the summer time and rove away."

Until next time guys and gals, Storyus Raccoonus out.
