A/N: This was written for leverageland team bingo.

I've realized that I haven't put a disclaimer but I guess you know that I don't own Leverage!

Who stole it?

They all sat around the table eyeing each other. It has to be one of them, but who?

Nate

I can't believe it that one of them has done something like this. Well, they are thieves Nate, what did you expect ? But still. Here we are, all staring at each other. Eliot is certainly the most pissed off of us. He did put a lot of work on it and to lose it all in just a few hours. I suppose I would have been angry too. Although his grifting recently got a lot better, so it might be all an act.

It has to be Parker. She is the actual thief in the group. Look at her, acting all so innocent. Hmm, but thinking about it, she does have an alibi. Hardison had the motive and the opportunity, but he was playing with that stupid game of his. He usually plays for hours without noticing anything, but I wonder….

No, Sophie, don't look at me like that. When she sends me one of those looks it usually only a matter of few seconds before one of us jumps the other. Like last night… Focus, Nate! Focus! Who did it?

Eliot

I can believe it that one of them could be such… such a scumbag. Those ungrateful, selfish… I'm too angry to even think of some insults. After I put all that work into it, it was suppose to be mine. I was gone for a couple of hours, just two hours. I was having my deserved rest after those long hours of work. My shirt was wet through, I even got cuts and bruises. It had to be Hardison. He was practically there! I can't believe he hasn't noticed anything. He acts all innocent, but he's the worst of us all.

Oh, please I don't want to see that. Nate and Sophie are basically having eye sex here. If they start making out, I will punch them. I swear! I wonder where they were. Probably having sex somewhere. Since San Lorenzo they've been acting like a couple of teenagers. That leaves Parker. Yes, it could have been her. She does seem distracted. I never know what's going on in that head her of hers. And she was the one who said that if she could she would have stolen it. And then there's that grin. It's a very distinctive grin…

Parker

I don't know why we are all sitting here staring at each other. They do take things waaayyy too seriously. What's a little theft? I do want to go in the cupboard and get some cereals, but I don't want to lose this staring contest. I'm good at games and I like winning. Hmm cereals… just the thought of those crunches makes me smile. I think Nate bought the chocolate ones. Chocolate… Okay Parker, stop thinking about chocolate or cereals. I'm bored! Somebody should just confess and get over with it. Let's figure out who did it! Well, it wasn't me. I was going to but someone beat me to it. That leaves Eliot. He did say not to touch. I bet he wanted it all for himself. So maybe he's the one who did it. Was it Sparky? No, he looks too furious. But maybe it's just an act. Hardison? He was there. Of course when he's playing with the computer, there could be an earthquake and he wouldn't noticed. I don't know how many times I've stolen from money his wallet without him noticing. I like it when a new game comes out. More money for me. Plus he wouldn't have the courage to make Eliot angry. That leaves Nate or Sophie. Well, they were naked in Sophie's apartment. And really? What thief has a lock so easy to pick?

Sophie

Okay, this is ridiculous! I had better things to do this afternoon. So what if somebody stole it? What's the big deal? I was going to have a lazy afternoon in bed with… Well, it was going to be with Nate, but since Parker caught us he quickly got dressed and flew out of my apartment. Men, really? And now I'm losing him to this mystery. I can see his brain working. His mind is focused elsewhere. Let's get back his attention , woman! Ah, it worked. He's squirming on his chair. I bet he did it. I know he tends to do bad things when his frustrated. He usually gets drunk down in the bar, but maybe this was easier. He was already here when Eliot summoned us. No, it couldn't have been him. He certainly would have shared. Parker? Before she interrupted us? And I really must talk to her about the meaning of privacy. Hardison? He's acting all innocent, but I know he feels guilty. You can't con a grifter. Eliot with his angry attitude is actually the hardest to read. He has become a good grifter. It could have been him. He had all the motive.

Hardison

I know what they all thinking! They think that I did it! I feel a bit stupid. I was actually there when it happened and I had noticed nothing, nada. I was all so caught up with my game. Well, it is the latest expansion of World of Warcraft. Who wouldn't? Somehow when I have a new game, I have less money in my wallet. I know it's Parker stealing them, and still don't know how, and I should probably stop putting money in it, but she's my girl, what can I do? She has got that smile on her face. Oh, I love her smile. But she looks like she has just accomplished something, so probably it was her. Eliot is looking at me like he's ready to punch me. But if I have to take a punch instead of the woman I love, so be it. He should really relax. This tension is probably not good for blood pressure. It might have been Nate. Or Sophie. Na, they are into each other right now. Did Sophie just blow him a kiss?

Well, it wasn't me. It wasn't Eliot nor Nate or Sophie. Maybe Parker…

"Okay, who stole the last piece of cake?" Eliot finally shouted. He turned to Hardison. "I hope you liked it because it's the last thing you're ever going to taste!"

"Hey, it wasn't me man. I know I was here at the table and cake was in the kitchen, but I didn't do it!"

"Sophie and Nate were naked at her apartment and I was snooping around. So it must have been you, Sparky"

"Why would I steel a piece of cake that was already mine. I told everyone not to touch it!"

Suddenly Nate's phone rang.

"Hello?"

"Hello Nate!"

"Sterling! What do you want?"

"Have you already seen my gift on the kitchen counter?"

There was a parcel in the kitchen that nobody had noticed.

"Open it! I'm sure I'll be hearing from you soon. Oh, and tell Eliot that he makes a fantastic cheesecake!"

"I'm going to kill him!"
