James and Juniper

Juniper Teazer gracefully sat next to James. Their plane was ready to depart. “We deserve this,” she whispered in his ear. “Every second of it. How dare they say we were’nt made for this.” James’ mouth twitched into a smile. “Furthermore, we’ll repay the money… some day or the other.” James smiled even broader
“Don’t you think we should donate it to charity?” James asked sarcastically. Juniper snorted.
“Who ever heard of stealing money to donate to charity?!?” The woman sitting next to them stopped shoving peanuts into her mouth, and faced them. “We won the lottery,” Juniper lied to her, “It’s practically like stealing money.” At the appartment, a surprise sat waiting for them. The police.
“Who are you?” asked the police.
“I am Joan Hook.” said Juniper, thinking on her feet. “I was coming to water Mrs. Greene’s plants!”
“In a fur coat?” James and Juniper looked at each other before jumping out of the 6th story window.
“Cheerio!” They called, landing into a dumpster conviently filled with pillows.
