The night before the mission, Luca and Street were playing a little pinball. " Do you hear that?" Luca asked with a frown. Street listened intently. " Water's running somewhere, isn't it? Did you leave the tap on in the bathroom?" " Surely not. I'm not that forgetful. " They both ran to the bathroom and even as they opened the door the water came towards them. " Holy shit. " Luca couldn't believe what he was seeing. " Great, now we have our own swimming pool. " Street had to laugh. " Not funny Street!" Luca looked at him. " Sorry. . . I'll quickly call Sarzo, I'm sure he can help us. " No sooner said than done. Sarzo set off straight away with his son Thomas, knowing that the two of them were left-handed when it came to repairs or renovating. There was a knock and Luca ran to the door. " Hey, guys, thank God you're here. Half the hallway is already under water. " " Oh I see. " Sarzo commented dryly. Street greeted them too and off they went. Thomas and Sarzo checked on the pipes. Street and Luca wiped the floor dry. When it was all done, the four of them had a beer together. " Guys, thank you so much for coming so quickly. With Street, it would have ended in disaster. " The latter looked at him indignantly. " Hey, that's not fair. You're just as incompetent as I am. " "and they all laughed. " Sarzo how are your renovations going in the living room? Have we thrown you guys very far behind schedule now?" Sarzo looked at Street questioningly. "Renovation? What makes you think that? I'm not renovating and I don't plan to. What makes you think that?" " Um Chris had mentioned something, but I probably misunderstood." he quickly talked his way out of it. Now he knew Chris had lied to him. All the time she had been so dismissive with him and said it was nothing. Now he was sure something was wrong. He'd find out what was going on.

That night, neither Chris nor Street slept well. Both their thoughts full the upcoming case and the situation between them.

Team 20 - David and Team 50 - David gathered at HQ. Hondo and Rocker gave final instructions to their people and everyone knew what they had to do. Chris sat in the locker room, tracing her lips again. She looked at herself in the mirror and was pleased. She was wearing tight white jeans, black chucks and a black bodysuit. This one had a plunging neckline in the front, large cut outs on both sides and it was almost backless. She was wearing her normal make up and a bright red lipstick. Her hair was down, one side tucked behind her ear. Her alias was Marie. Just as she was about to join the team Tan came in. " Hey, you ready?" " Sure, good to go. " She walked past him and was about to head out the door. " And Chris," she turned around again. " You look really great. " he smiled at her. " Thank you. " she smiled back and left. Street's already been with the others. He wore black jeans, a dark gray shirt and a black and blue plaid shirt that he had left open. His black sneakers completed the outfit. His alias was Nick. When Chris came around the corner, he had to swallow. She looked beautiful and really hot, actually he didn't want to take her out looking like this but it was necessary. He quickly looked away to cover his appreciative looks but of course, Chris noticed his looks. " Chris, Street, are you ready?" Deacon and I will position ourselves in front of the club in case anything goes wrong and you need help." Hondo asks and Rocker adds, "My team will be at the harbor already, maybe some of his backers will come by and we can get a better picture. " Everybody nodded and it started.

Hondo took them aside again. " Hey, this is a big job for you guys, I know that. You are unarmed and must take care of yourselves. Chris, I need you to listen to Street's instructions, okay? He has experience in undercover operations. " she nodded at him. " I'll bring her back safely. " Street stated. Chris looked at him and knew he would do anything to protect her. . .

Chris and Street were in the car and on their way to the club. There was an uncomfortable silence. Street really wanted to call her out for her lie, but he didn't know if it was wise to do that before going to the club. He decided to wait until they were out again, which was not easy for him. " Are you ready?" he looked over at Chris. " Yes, I am. We can do this. Remember our story?" " Sure. We met in prison three years ago. You did time for robbery, and I did time for embezzlement and money laundering. We then teamed up. " she nodded. " By the way, Chris. You look insanely good today. " he had to tell her. She looked out the window, hoping he wouldn't see her blush.

Arriving at the club, they got out and went inside. Hicks had gotten them VIP passes so they got past security without any problems. They took a quick look around and went to the bar. " Two Cokes, please. " Chris ordered. " Do you see him?" She asked. " No. So far, he doesn't seem to be there yet. " They had been sitting around for an hour now and there was still no sign of Navarra and his men. " Shall we hit the dance floor?" Street looked at Chris questioningly. " Um, definitely not. Street we're here to work, not dance, and besides, you don't even know how to dance. " He leaned over and whispered in her ear. " You have no idea Chris. " she got goose bumps and felt very warm for a moment. But a second she managed to put some space between herself and him again. " There he is. " she said pointing at the door where at the moment their subject entered the club. He was not alone, he had three of his backers with him. Chris had already found him repulsive in the photos, but he was even more disgusting in real life. " Ok here we go honey. " Street got up and offered her his hand. She looked at him in shock for a moment. `Honey`, that sounded so good, but now was not the right time to worry about it. Street and Chris walked up to Navarra and greeted him. Street had phone contact with him two days before, so he could already convince him a little bit of himself and he knew who he was dealing with.

"Hello Sergio, good to see you. " Street held out his hand to him. " Hey, Nick, it's my pleasure. I hope you brought me good merchandise?" he grinned and looked at Chris. It felt like he was undressing her with just his eyes. " You must be Marie. " Hello, it's a pleasure. " she put on a sweet smile. He gave her a hand-kiss. " Oh, sure. I told you I was the best, and you wouldn't see the difference. I've got everything in the trunk. It's safe and nobody should notice. But I have some bills in here", he tapped on his pocket, "which I'll pay with later to prove to you how good they are. " That sounds great, Nick. How much did you think for $50,000 in counterfeit money?" I'd give you a friendship prize of $80,000. How does that sound Segio?" Wow, great. Last week I was supposed to pay almost 10,000 more. We're in business, Nick. " he held out his hand. "Come on, let's go to the VIP area and have a drink. Sweetheart, why don't you sit with me?" He was pointing to Chris. She smiled and sat by his side. He wanted to know how she met Nick and why she was in jail. He was impressed by her and his hand was constantly on her thigh. Street didn't like it, but he had to put up with it in order to not jeopardize the operation. " Marie, would you do me the honor and dance with me?" Chris wasn't really thrilled and didn't feel like it at all, but she smiled at Navarra sweetly and let him know what a pleasure it would be for her. He took her by the hand and led her to the dance floor. She took a quick look at Street and noticed how tight his jaw was. He looked at her and nodded at her cheerful. Sergio was not shy and immediately put his hands around Chris's hip. Again and again his hands wandered to her ass. Chris gently let him know by repeatedly placing his hand higher up that he was going too far. " Marie, come on, you like me too, I can tell. " He pulled her closer to him and ground his hips into hers. She got nauseous. " Sergio, I just want to remind you that Nick is my boyfriend. " Oh, I'm sure he won't mind if I borrow you for a night. " he was about to kiss her when suddenly Street was behind him and taps him on the shoulder. " Sorry Sergio, but I don't share my girl!" he said earnestly and resolutely. Chris was relieved and very grateful that moment. " Oh, buddy, I had no idea you were so serious about her. I thought she was just your kitten. " he raised his hands in an apology. Street just shook his head and asked, "May I?" Segio made room for him and went back to his men. " Are you okay?" Street asked her while they were dancing. Chris replied with gnashing teeth, "Yes, but one more moment and he would have been lying on the dance floor. " Street had to grin and pull her to him. " Um, what's this?" she was a little nervous. " Well, now we have to give him a show so he'll believe us. Honey. " he whispered close to her ear. His breath also hit her neck and she got light goose bumps. Street enjoyed being on the dance floor near her for at least a few minutes. After those few minutes, Chris had enough. To get some distance, she pulled Street back to the table with Navarra and his men.

Meanwhile it was after midnight and they decided to leave. Street paid with the "wrong" money and Navarra was impressed. Arriving at the trunk, Street showed him the bag full of money and handed it to him. Navarra was so enthusiastic about Nick and Marie that he invited him to the port for the next night to inspect the incoming goods. Street inwardly celebrated already. They had been convincing and he was in. After a round of farewells, they finally could leave.

"Hey Nick, good work. " Chris praised him. " You weren't bad either, Marie. " he replied. After they had informed Hondo of their success by phone, Street drove Chris home. It was depressingly quiet again between them. Street grabbed onto the steering wheel with both hands, took a deep breath and said as serious as he could: " Chris. We need to talk. "
