Jay's POV

'BEY?' I said looking for her. I soon found her in our bedroom digging for guns. She was right on the ball,if we were running we were gonna do this right. 'Take this' I said handing her a bullet proof vest which she put on immediately. I took two shot guns from the bag and hid around the corner from the door. I knew Kanye's men were here,they knew where we were,but we were prepared.

Before I knew it I heard banging on our door,I heard a voice of Raze,one of the guys from the lot. I made sure Bey was out of sight before anything else could happen. My heart was beating so fast. I was scared as shit,not for myself,for Beyoncé. I said a quick prayer to myself,praying to God that he gets both me and Bey through this,keeping us alive. I finished my prayer and awaited what would happen in the next few seconds.

The door was busted open with what sounded like a heavy ass foot,I heard shouting and people yelling. I was hiding in a cupboard by the door which no one could even see,Bey and I didn't notice it until this morning,it blended into the wall perfectly. I cracked it open a little to see 3 guys and 3 guys only walk past. I aimed my gun at 60 degrees ready to shoot all three. I saw Bey on the other side of the apartment ready to do the same.

They stood right in the middle of ur target. They were confused,they couldn't see or hear me and Bey,as if we were expecting them,little did they know,we were just smarter.

I engaged my gun ready to shoot. It fit perfectly in my hands. It was a pretty powerful gun despite its small frame. I pulled the trigger and fired three shots,hitting each guy in the chest region,Bey did the same. They laid on the floor lifeless. I just killed 3 people,everything I could see was a blur.

What am I doing? Never did I think that this is how I'd be spending my life. Hunted down by a ruthless and idolised man, allowing the people I love the most in the world to be at risk of death. I had dreams, a motive. I wanted to be something. Something that truly matters, someone that will love a woman like Beyoncé and grow with her. Here I stand, hidden in this cramped and claustrophobic closet with my hands shaking while holding a freshly used gun. What the fuck am I doing.

I walked out the cupboard,walking over to the dormant bodies,checking each pulse. There wasn't one.

Beyoncé's POV

My heart beat was pounding against my chest,my pulse was as high as a mountain. I just shot and killed 3 people in self defence. I don't feel guilty,I don't care. It's just a shock to me,never in my life would I think I was capable of such an act.

Jay walked over to me grabbing my trembling hands kissing my forehead. 'It's okay Bey,lets go' he said helping me out. My head was all over the place,I didn't know what to do or what to say. I was just involved in a minor cross fire. How am I suppose to feel?

Jay grabbed the bags which had all our stuff inside,including the guns which we just used. He held the bags in one hand and grasped my hand in the other,leading me over the dead bodies on the floor,a sight that unfortunately I am use to. I remember there was a gun shot from the outside of the apartment,the only person who I knew was coming out of the apartment walking down the stairs was Ghost. Oh God.

Jay walked out the apartment immediately noticing another lifeless body laying on the floor gushing blood from its chest. He dropped everything he had and ran over to it. We both knew it was Ghost. 'FUCK!' Jay said getting down on his knees checking for Ghosts pulse.Nothing.

Jay's POV

I stared at my brothers dead body in front of me. I couldn't do anything about this. All that rushed through my head was anger. I wanted to kill them all over again for killing Ghost. He's gone,he's dead. I felt limb,numb,everything inside of me just pulsated.

Ghost was a brother to me. He made sure I was always good. But now he can't,he's dead,I blame myself,this could have all been prevented.

I stared at Ghost for which seemed like hours but was really minutes,until a soft voice broke my trance. 'Jay,I know this is hard,but we can't stay,we need to go baby' she said rubbing on my shoulder. I sighed heavily not saying a word. I stood up and rubbed the back of my head looking at Bey who looked at me with the same facial expression. Sadness.

Beyoncé picked up the bags allowing me to take two from her. She grabbed my hand leading me downstairs to our car,which we needed to change. We had a black Mercedes. Leather seats, the usual. We have money so we bought one along with two other cars that remain at the lot.

We walked outside letting the cold air hit our skin,it was a shock,but then again,I couldn't feel anything,I was still numb. I unlocked the car and packed up the car not saying a word,still in shock of what happened to Ghost. One of the most painful things I've ever witnessed in my life,hands down.

'It's gonna be okay Jay,he's in a better place' Bey said rubbing my hand as I drove off to change our car. I notice she had picked up all of Ghosts belongings,including his phone,his wallet and his keys to everything. 'You're smart Bey' I said looking at his belongings. 'It's gonna help us baby' she said,looking into my eyes.

I feel like when I look into Beyoncé's eyes all my worries and doubts suddenly disappear. But when I look away,I see all my fears. This is an experience. I'm gonna need Bey,a lot.
