69.) Illegal*
"Don't worry, it's nothing illegal."
"Well that's comforting. I was so worried about going to jail, now all I have to worry about is dying." His drawl thick with sarcasm, Bones barely kept from growling.
"Aww, lighten up Bones. Pike's not gonna kill us, it would cause too much paperwork. He probably won't even yell at us." Entering the access code, Jim motioned for Bones to enter before him.
"Even after breaking and entering? I thought you said it wasn't anything illegal." Resigned to spending a night in jail, Bones accepted the lime green streamers he was handed.
"I have an open invitation, that's why I have the code to get in."
Bones rolled his eyes as he continued hanging streamers. "That was when we were in the Academy. Besides, he only gave you the code so you'd quit hacking your way in."
Jim stopped blowing up balloons so he could shrug. "We can always add breaking into an admiral's home to the crime board when we get out of jail. There's bound to be a bet about that."
Snorting, Bones continued decorating. This wouldn't be the last less than legal adventure he would help the kid with. Although throwing Admiral Pike a surprise birthday party would be one of the more entertaining ones, even if they did wind up spending the night in jail. They could certainly add it to the bulletin board at least.
