**I got my school work done early, so everyone cheer.

This chapter takes place a month after the last one left, this is the way that the next few are going to be, jumping around in time until we hit Season 2 of The Flash. I feel like I needed to say something else and completely forgot ohh well.**

**Ohh yeah I remember now, a little ooc, but I feel like being away and on vacation there can be some relaxing and not so tight.**

Chapter 9

**Aris's POV**

"Do we have to go on the heist tonight?" I asked Lisa.

"Yeah we do, pass me another bottle of wine."

I sat up and opened the cooler pulling out a mini bottle of wine and handed it to her. I grabbed another apple ale for myself and put it in the hole I dug out in the sand from the last one.

We've been in Coast City for about a month now. We been on two heists, which were successful and have one tonight. The only thing that Lisa and I do during the day is lay on the beach, it's really relaxing though; not having a care in the world. There's no strange out of the ordinary here, only underpaid cops to deal with. I built all of my cabinets for my bullets minus the ice and exploding cabinets, those two took me forever to actually build the first time. I designed these new cabinets to be transportable for when we move cities, unlike the ones I have in Central. I'm having problems with my flash bullets that cause temporary blindness, right now the only thing they do is zap people like a Taser. Granted that's not a bad thing in my line of work, but the flash bullets are more useful all around.

Ollie and Felicity moved here after everything that happened in now Star City, I just can't believe that Ray is dead. Ollie kept his promise to me and told me everything and I couldn't believe everything that he went through. I'm not happy that he kidnapped Lyla when she and Digg have a baby, but I could tell he regretted it. I go out to lunch with them every Tuesday; it's really weird how my life seems to have become normal in this month. Well besides me being a thief and pulling heists every other week.

"Why did Len pick the night of my birthday to do a heist?" I asked. Tomorrow is officially my birthday, meaning tonight during the heist will be my birthday.

"Because we're getting fucked up tomorrow, one more year till thirty. I'll let you know how that feels next month."

"Don't remind me, I'm old."

"Do we really want to discuss age?" I heard Len ask.

I turned on to my stomach and looked up, sure enough there stood Captain Cold in blue swimming trunks. He was shirtless and I closed my mouth before drooling, he is so attractive.

"Captain Cold on a beach, I thought I'd never see the day," I said smirking.

"I can't stay inside all the time, so I thought I'd join you two for once," he smirked back laying his towel above us.

"Damnit Lenny, you're getting sand on us," Lisa said as she tried wiping sand off of her.

I scrunched up my face and started doing the same, but it's not going to work.

"There's sand everywhere sis, get over it," he said sitting down.

Thankfully I can check him out with my sunglasses on and not get caught. His tattoos are gorgeous, I smiled seeing snowflakes on his side, ohh Captain Cold.

"Aris give me a beer, I know you have some," he said.

I flipped back over on my back and leaned up, I again opened the cooler and grabbed a beer out. I handed it to him and got back comfortable on my stomach.

"You two haven't been in the water," Len observed.

"I'm about to, Aris is scared of the water," Lisa said and I turned to look at her.

"Scared of the water?"

"There are sharks in the water, don't you watch shark week," I said.

"Really Aris?"

"Yeah, we're on the pacific coast, there are great white sharks more south of us."

"Trust me, she won't go," Lisa said.

I laid my head on my arms and closed my eyes dozing off a little bit, I feel so at peace right now. I wish this didn't have to end, all of us can be out in public since Len isn't in any computer systems and no one knows of our activities out here. I heard Lisa get up, so she's getting in the water. Len hasn't been nearly as much of an ass like he can at home, I guess because it's just us three.

All of a sudden I was flipped over and picked up.

"No, you fucking asshole, do you know how much these sunglasses were?" I screamed struggling hearing Len laughing, I take back everything I just thought.

"I'll buy you a new pair," he chuckled. I heard and saw water and started kicking more, before I was underwater.

"You asshole!" I screamed, when I came up as Len and Lise laughed.

"No sharks out here Aris," Lise said. "Now come jump waves."

I groaned, but went out a little farther with them, and like I said my sunglasses were gone. They told me when to jump, I had done this when I was a kid with Ollie, but I haven't been in the water since I was ten. I started getting the timing down and it really was fun, still terrified of sharks, but fun. I missed the timing of a wave and it hit me hard into Len.

"I'm sorry," I muttered trying not to blush.

"For someone who can scale a building, I'd think you could keep your balance," he smirked.

"Are you two seriously fighting right now or flirting?" Lisa groaned.

"No, I'm not," I said.

"I was only messing sis."

"Would you two fuck already, the sexual tension is suffocating," she basically screamed and now I know I'm as red as a cherry.

"Sis there are children here, watch what you say," he said, did that seriously not faze him like come on what the fuck.

I shook my head and started walking back to the shore. That is enough awkwardness for this little nerd, plus I'll be tired for the heist tonight and that's not a good idea. I laid back down on my towel and turned my phone on to play music, when one of my favorite songs came on.

"Get on your knees and let the games begin. Bow to your queen and I will crown your head, cause I can make you every inch a king. Before I do tell me, tell me what's in it for me?" I sang along with the verse.

"Really a song about a queen," Lise said laying down on her towel. "Before I know it I'll have to listen to bad puns from you too."

"I don't even know how you could do that," I laughed.

"But my queen it is very easy," Len said sitting on his towel.

"Or Len could do it for me."

"Happy Birthday!" Lisa screamed into our comms.

"Thanks Lise, but oww," I said.

After I had been around Team Flash and Arrow for so long, I designed us comm units just like the good guys. It was actually extremely simple to do, once I sat down and worked on it. I shook my head and went back to cracking the safe, I almost had it, but luckily I didn't move my hand when Lise screamed.

I smirked hearing the last tumbler in the safe, before I opened it up.

"Five minutes and forty-three seconds, needs some work," Len said as we unloaded the safe into bags.

"Next time you can do it then, so the queen decrees," I said looking at him unimpressed. He looked at me and smirked.

"NO! Not the puns," Lise said and I laughed.

We closed the safe and ran out of the building into the van. Lisa got us out of there quick and we were on our way to the safe house. I sighed sitting back into the seat; 29 doesn't feel much different then 28 and I have a feeling that this year is going to be even crazier than last year.
