live for, die forw e l l i ' v e h a d j u s t e n o u g h t i m e Breanna bit her bottom lip as she looked at her outfit in the mirror. She was dressed in all black, which was the perfect outfit for what her and DJ were about to do. It had been so long since she had did something like this, so she was a bit nervous about how it was going to go but she knew that it would all be gone by the time she got there. Breanna was bored at trying to be good and she wanted to live on the wild side for once. Someone would think that selling drugs were wild enough, but not for her. She needed more and she knew that DJ was the perfect person to do it with. She grabbed one of her guns that were stashed in her dresser just for safety and headed to the living room. Breanna had been through many robberies before with her ex boyfriend, so she knew what to do and what not to. made by emilie
In need of something to do tonight since going over Honor’s was out of the question, at least to him it was, DJ talked with Breanna over twitter and agreed to get into some stuff tonight. He was down for whatever she had in mind for the night—usually, it consisted of some type of ‘trouble’, but DJ was always down to cause a little bit of trouble in the town of Ashwick; anything was better than sitting at home and dealing with a drunk uncle again.
Hopping out of the car, he made his way up to her front door and rung the doorbell. He looked himself over as he was dressed up in complete black before adjusting the black fitted cap on his head, bringing it down low enough to cover his eyes. Once she answered, he hiked up his pants and looked her over. ”You ready, or do you need time to put on your makeup?”

She locked the door and closed it behind her before heading towards his car. What they were about to do had to go well, she wouldn't allow anything less than perfect. She wasn't about to go back to jail for anyone, so she hoped that DJ had his things together. "So, I hope you don't punk out on me boy." Breanna said once they were both inside of the car. made by emilie
”That’s what I said,” He spoke in a smart-ass manner. He shook his head before turning his back towards her, heading towards the car. ”Nope. Unlike you females, I don’t have to stay posted in front of a mirror for two hours to make sure I look good for someone.” He replied simply. Even though it was a stereotype comment at “females”, he didn’t care any. He hopped into the driver’s seat and started up the car. Once she got in and got situated, he started up the car and pulled off. ”If I was going to punk out, I would’ve kept my ass home than make a long trip over here.”
--------------------------------------- live for, die for
live for, die forw e l l i ' v e h a d j u s t e n o u g h t i m e Breanna sucked her teeth at DJ. They were good friends, but one thing that she hated about him was his attitude. It irked her nerves even though she could act the same way at times. ”Well I don’t know what females you hang around, ‘cause I don’t do that shit.” She shook her head. Breanna didn’t have time to sit around all day and worry about her appearance, especially not for a robbery. ”Well shit, I don’t know. You might be one of those people who say that they’re gonna do something, then when the times come they don’t do shit.” She had encountered many of those types of people before. Breanna just hoped that he wasn’t one of them. ”Have you ever robbed a store before?”made by emilie
DJ never paid attention to the words that came out of his mouth. Whether it was offensive or hurtful, if it was the first thing that was on his mind, it was going to be the first thing that came out of his mouth. ”I hang around female that aren’t too different from yourself, I assume you just forgot to do it today.” DJ ran his fingers across his small developing goatee as he looked around the neighborhood. ”Me? Those type of people? What year are you living in? 1990s? You must forgot who I was; backing out is never a option.” He countered. ”But nah, I haven’t robbed a store in quite some time now.”

live for, die forw e l l i ' v e h a d j u s t e n o u g h t i m e Breanna rolled her eyes at him since a comeback didn’t come to her mind. ”Hmm, alright. We’ll see when we get there.” She was going to take DJ’s word for it. Hopefully he stuck to it, because she didn’t want to have to do all of this planning for nothing. ”I hope you ain’t rusty.” Breanna told him as she thought of the stores that would be perfect for them. It had been awhile since she stole anything as well, but she was sure that she would quickly remember when she got to the place. made by emilie
”Definitely,” And DJ was going to leave it there. He had no reason to back out something like this. Once his mind was set in stone on doing something, he might as well stick it out to the very end. It was just going to be a little different doing it with a female than his usual homeboys. ”I am,” He lied, but made it sound sincere enough to believe. ”Does that make you scared?” He glanced over at her to see her reaction.
--------------------------------------- live for, die for
live for, die forw e l l i ' v e h a d j u s t e n o u g h t i m e Breanna bit her bottom lip and let out a sigh when he said that he was. "Nah, it doesn't." It just made her know that her job was going to be harder than she expected. She was going to have to carry a lot more weight, if DJ was actually rusty like he said he was. As they drove along, she mentally prepared herself for the challenges that they would later face. made by emilie
”Good,” DJ replied simply. He was only putting her leg, but he was just going to lead her on into thinking he was rusty as hell. He did, however, worry she might get in his way a little too much for his likings because of that news. ”Get yourself ready. We’re here.” DJ cut his lights off and parked the car across the street. Opening the glove department, he pulled out two gloves, handing one to her and placing the other onto his hands.
--------------------------------------- live for, die for
live for, die forw e l l i ' v e h a d j u s t e n o u g h t i m e Breanna took a deep breath when DJ announced that they were here. Her nerves were starting to get to her, but she had to shake them off quickly. There was no way that she would allow her own flaws to get in the way of this. She took the gloves from him and slipped her hands into them. ”Here,” Breanna handed over the extra gun that she had bought for him. She wasn’t planning on using them, but she knew that sometimes storeowners would be packing heat as well and she just wanted to be prepared. "Let's do the damn thing."made by emilie
DJ looked down at the gun then onto her. He lifted up his shirt to expos that he had his own pistol on him, but he didn’t mind going the dual pistol route; the more, the merrier. ”If you wanted me to play like fucking tomb raider, then why you just ain’ say so.” He took the gun from her and checked the ammo before slipping it into the waistband of his jeans. ”Let’s go then, Foxxie Brown.” He stepped out of the car and closed the door behind him. Approaching the store, he stopped to glance back at Breanna and nodded his head towards the front door. ”Out of the act of being a gentlemen, ladies first.”
--------------------------------------- live for, die for
live for, die forw e l l i ' v e h a d j u s t e n o u g h t i m e Breanna couldn't do anything, but laugh at her friend. When he lifted up his shirt to reveal a gun of his own, but he took hers anyways. She guessed that it would be better for him to have more two guns than only one. Breanna got out of the car and closed it behind her. "Oh, so now you wanna be a gentleman." She walked towards the front door of the store with the gun tucked underneath her shirt. Once she walked inside of the place, she briefly scanned around it with her eyes. The store looked pretty empty to her, but she wanted to be sure so she walked down each isle. made by emilie
”I can always take back my offer and act like an asshole, Breanna. It’s never too late for that.” He replied simply. Once she took the lead, he followed her into the building. He quickly reached forward to pull her back towards him. ”You’re getting careless,” He scolded her, pointing towards the cameras that positioned throughout the store. There was one towards the upper left of them, another towards the back, and another near the cashier. If he was missing one, he’d have to get it later. ”Hold on,” He dug into his pockets and pulled out a laser pointer. Carefully, he stood out of sight to direct the beam of the red light into the lens of the camera, waiting for the power light to cut off. He knew it would temporarily disable the optics within the camera long enough for DJ and Breanna to do what they have to do and get out without getting caught.
Once disabled, he handed the laser over to her. ”While you roam around, make sure you disable that camera towards the back.” He motioned his head towards the camera. While she went off her own way, DJ moved through the quiet store, in search for any life forms and being careful to not step in the sight of the cameras. He kept his hands close near his pistols, because you never know when you might need to have a western moment and shoot somebody before they shot you.
--------------------------------------- live for, die for
live for, die forw e l l i ' v e h a d j u s t e n o u g h t i m e Breanna shrugged at DJ, honestly she didn't care if he went back to acting like he was before. When she began to walk towards the door, it wasn't long before she was pulled back. She didn't even get a chance to cuss him out before he was scolding at her. Rolling her eyes at him, she noticed the cameras in the store but she knew that they were there. She stood back and waited for him to do what he had to do. "For someone to say that they're rusty, they know what the hell they're doing." Breanna said, smirking at DJ. Once the camera was disabled, she was handed the laser. Breanna walked to the back of the store and disabled the other camera. She also kept a lookout for for any possible witnesses. Luckily there weren't any that she had to worry about. made by emilie
