Let’s go steal a Big Bang!
Parker stormed inside Nate's apartment soon followed by the rest of the team.
"Aren't you a bit overreacting?" Eliot grumbled going straight to the freezer for a bag of ice. His right shoulder was killing him.
"We missed New Year's Eve!" Parker sat heavily on the chair moping.
"Oh, Parker!" Sophie ran a comforting hand over her arm.
"I don't know how many times must I say I'm sorry" Nate retorted pouring himself a glass of scotch. The first shot he drank in one go and he poured another one, which he was going to actually taste it this time. "We didn't know that the mark had moved all his accounts and it took us longer to reach them, it happens! What's so special about New Year's Eve, anyway?"
"Don't you get it!" Parker got up. "We are a family now and we are supposed to do family stuff together!" She stormed off the door and slammed it behind there.
The rest of the team glared at the mastermind who just sighed and took a sip of drink.
Hardison shook his head and tried to go after Parker, but knowing her she was probably miles away on top of a roof.
"Nate!" Sophie nagged him. "You know she didn't have a real childhood, she actually cares about these things"
"I'm with her in this. I don't really care about celebrations and stuff, but if it makes her happy... A happy Parker is a better Parker!"
"Okay, okay" Nate shook his head trying to think about something. Then he looked up, his eyes sparkling. "Guys, let's go steal New Year's Eve!"
"Hardison, where are you taking me!" Parker whined. She was still really upset about the all missing New Year's Eve celebration and following Hardison blindfolded wasn’t really on top of her things to do.
"Hey babe, we are nearly there. Just trust me."
"It's cold out here! You know, this seems like a start of a terrible horror movie. Hardison, should I be worried?"
The hacker guided her for another couple of meters. " Here we are!" He went behind her and took the blind off.
"Happy New Year!" The rest of the team shouted.
They were all standing next to a pic-nic table full of food. Eliot was grilling some hamburgers and Sophie approached her with a flute of sparkling wine.
"What's all this?" Parker was surprised.
"This is our special own New Year's Eve party!" Sophie explained to her.
"But that was yesterday!"
"We just decided to steal the day back!" Nate added shrugging.
"You guys did all this for me?" She then jump in Sophie's arms to give a big hug. "Thank you!"
Sophie nearly stumbled surprised. "You're welcome!"
Parker then hugged Hardison. "Thank you!" She whispered in his ear.
"Anytime, mama!" he whispered back
She then looked up to Eliot who was flipping a burger.
"Please, don't tell me you want to hug me too"
Parker just launched herself towards the hitter who caught in one arm. " Hey, there. Happy New Year, babe!"
She just hugged him tighter.
"You know, it was actually Nate's idea" Eliot whispered to her.
Parker turned around to look at the mastermind who was standing uncomfortably shifting to one foot to the other.
Parker slowly approached him. "Sorry that I yelled at you"
"Nah, " he waved his hand " I probably deserved it"
Parker put her arms around him in an awkward hug. Nate just stood there dumb folded but after a while he return the hug. "Happy New Year, Parker!"
Sophie just watched them smiling, her eyes full of tears.
"Are these burgers ready or what?" Hardison interrupted the moment.
"You want to cook them yourself?" Eliot shouted back. "Here you are, you big mouth!" He launched him a plate with a burger sandwich that Hardison caught just in time.
Parker finally released Nate. "Let's eat everyone!"
And so the sat at the pic-nic table. Parker slipped between Hardison and Eliot while Nate and Sophie sat together at the other side.
When Nate sat next to her Sophie gave him a small kiss on the cheek.
"What was that for?" He looked at her surprised.
"You did good. You can actually be adorable when you want to!" She smiled.
Nate looked perplexed. "Hmm, thank you!"
"Unfortunately, that's not often enough!" She retorted back give him a flirty smile.
A small bonfire was near the table to give them a sense of warmth in the chilly night.
After dinner they had another small surprise for Parker.
"Fireworks!" She shouted enthusiastically. " Can I lit one up?"
Hardison and Eliot share a worried look but then Eliot reluctantly nodded.
"It's nearly midnight. Who is doing the countdown?"
Parker lit up a firework that burst in the sky with spectacular colours.
…Five…
…Four…
…Three…
…Two…
…One…
"Happy New Year!" They shouted and Eliot lit some other fireworks and the sky above them was full of light and filling the silent night with big explosions.
Parker stood between the two younger boys with one of her arms around each of them and she kissed them both on the cheek.
Nate and Sophie stood at the back watching the scene. Nate was standing behind the grifter with his arms around her keeping her warm and Sophie stoked his arms loving. She looked over her shoulder and smiled at him. Nate looked down and smiling back he leaned in for a kiss.
"Happy New Year, Sophie!" he whispered on her lips.
She gave him another small peck . "Happy New Year, Nate!"
