Honestly she made it to easy. She might as well have a giant sign in her front yard that says come rob me! Calum was in an out of his neighbors house within minutes. Her engagement ring safely tucked in his pocket. It wasn't like she was going to miss it anyways. The only time she ever wore it was when her fiancé would come back from his business trips. Besides he was fairly certain she was cheating on him anyways. And if she wasn't? Either way, he felt little guilt about swiping it right out of her jewelry box and making his way towards the spot he agreed to meet Alabama at. Just for good measure, running his finger along the band in his pocket as he leaned against the entrance. His smile growing as he spotted her walking up. "Ah darling, you are looking absolutely stunning tonight." He murmured, making a point of wrapping an arm around her waist when he knew the host was watching.
Brooklyn was pretty much done for the night, thank god. She was leaving the stage and heading for the back. Dressed in one of her fan-favorite sets, she left little to the imagination. Her eyes landed on Calum, the very person she was flirting with in the group chat earlier in the night. Walking over in her stiletto heels, she leaned against the bar. "Were you coming to pick me up for our date or just cashing out for the night?" She assumed he was done with his sales.
His phone, though usually a nice distraction, had definitely failed him as he swirled what remained of the ice that had since sufficiently watered down his drink. He dared to take a sip but grimaced as he pushed it away. Not usually the type to waste alcohol but also not willing to subject himself to anything that wasn't going to burn his tastebuds to a crisp. He'd been about to dump it when Brooklyn approached but realized instantly what it'd say about him as he made a point of throwing it back instead. "Frankly, getting shot in the leg sounds more enjoyable than this shit was." He mused as he pushed the now empty glass away from himself. "So lets go with option one."

What all can be said about Calum Madlock? He wasn’t the popular kid in high school by any means. At least not for his personality he wasn’t. The only time anyone really paid him much attention was when he set the head cheerleaders uniform on fire on a dare. She deserved it anyways. Especially after slapping him for trying to get her best friend to steal a car with him. His drug dealing tendencies were another story. He didn’t start out that way. On the contrary. Calum's home life was decent. He was born to two very wealthy parents who loved and adored him, but loved traveling the world for work even more. Leaving him most of the time with his grandparents. Which on its own should not have been a reason for Cal to spiral down the path that he had.
Unfortunately like most men in his family, Calum was cursed with the same luck of falling for people who had a knack for damaging them. He met Natalia Walsh on his first day of school freshman year and fell instantly in love with her. Didn’t have to do much chasing. She fell for him just as quickly. As per usual things started out innocent. Girl likes boy. Boy likes girl. Girl also likes drugs. Calum learned quickly that Nat had been raised by an entire family of addicts and despite her assurance watched as the girl he loved just as quickly fell victim to the powers of addiction. Fortunately for Nat, Calum was far from the good boy his parents and grandparents had expected him to be. Had, had his own introduction to pot and cocaine when he’d been out to visit his cousins in Portland. Envied his cousins life for his ability to get high so freely without having to hide it from anyone.
As time went on he and Nat grew and developed new loves for trying different things together. Everything was all good until coming home from a stint in rehab and having been informed by his grandparents that they’d gotten a call from her parents. They had come home and found her dead on arrival thanks to an unknown cocktail she’d taken without telling him. Calum had no idea where she’d gotten it but her parents still reached out to his grandparents immediately to warn them. This earned Calum a one way ticket back to rehab.
Lot of good that did him right? Wrong! Because how are you ever supposed to recover from knowing you could have done something but didn’t? By drowning yourself further. When he’d returned home from rehab he was immediately transferred to a boarding school for the rich and the preppy. People he didn’t fit in with and certainly didn’t get along with. But he’d found solace in rising to the top as the number one drug dealer that school had ever seen. They didn’t have to like him. Not when they needed him. And he used this to propel him through his remaining high school years. Sure things weren’t perfect. They were never going to be for a kid who got his kicks getting high and making a menace of his peers. Unfortunately when it came time for college applications, after all the money his grandparents had spent having to send him to boarding school, it meant he had no choice but to apply for a scholarship if he wanted any hope of getting into the school they had also hand picked for him. Little did they know, the "scholarship" he received was far from real and instead had him running away to New York. He no longer felt the need for the familial ties he'd once craved. Not when he'd find himself affiliated with The Black Spades. They'd become his new family, and made doing the kind of business he'd always thrived in a breeze.
Calum: I'd need to cancel my 8PM date with Taco Bell but I think the free drinks might be worth it. I'll swing round and nab my neighbors engagement ring and meet you in 20?
