Cliché [LT Fanfiction]

Chapter Two

The car ride had been silent, and the only thing that was heard is the music, the air conditioner, and the boxes moving around in the trunk. Earlier, before the 2 had took off, Alexis helped Larry put those mysterious boxes in the car. Alexis wondered why the boxes are significant. After holding her tongue for so long, she decided to speak up.

"What's in those boxes?" Alexis broke the silence.
"Cocaine," Larry said bluntly.
"Cocaine?" Alexis asked. "Why didn't you tell me that?"
"You didn't ask." He shrugged his shoulders.
Alexis sighed. "What are we gonna do with 'em?"
"We're not gonna do anything wit' 'em."

He flashed a coy smile at her then put his eyes back on the road once the light turned green. "I did not expect that as an answer," Alexis admitted.

"I'm full of surprises," he answered, causing Alexis to let out a gasp. She's amused that he just turned her own words against her. He's also right; he's surprised her a lot for someone she'd only known for a brief over 24 hours. Hearing this gasp, he laughed. 

This is gon' be a long ride, she thought.

Her thoughts were right: it has been a long journey, increasing the duration with the stops they've made for food every here and there, but it hasn't been a bad, long journey. They both found each other funny, and have had humorous conversations for the past hour. Alexis turned the music on, sense it had been off since they've began their intriguing conversation. Anaconda by Nicki Minaj blasted out the car. "I love this song!" Alexis yelled and began to dance crazily. This caused Larry to give her a look, but she did not notice.

As ridiculous as she looked, Larry found it... cute.

Larry stopped at a gas station. "Do you want anything?" He asked her.

"No, thank you."

Larry nodded and smiled at her manners, but he stopped in his tracks. Did I just give her a non-evil smile? That made him laugh at him self, I just slipped. He laughed at himself continued walking into the store.

Alexis waited and waited. She waited patiently, but she's growing impatient. It seemed as if she'd been sitting there on her dry phone in boredom for hours when it 's really only been about 20 minutes. "Where is he?" She growled in frustration. As if on cue, Larry came running out of the store with what is appears to look like a garbage bag. Alexis knew what he had just done: He robbed the store.

Alexis had seen this happen before, as she had grew up in the ghetto, and probably why they were always caught was because their get away was too slow.

Alexis quickly jumped out the car and opened the back door, so Larry could quickly throw the bag in the car then hopped back in the passenger seat. She turned the key in the ignition so the car could start. Larry threw the bag in the car, closed the door and slid over the trunk and got into the car. He put the car in drive and drove off.

He drove threw vacant high ways that were just closed for no reason at all; it was just abandoned.

"What the hell, Larry!?" Alexis yelled. Larry looked in the rearview mirror hearing sirens and seeing saw the red, white and blue flashing lights. "We can talk about this later, belle, but for right now, the cops are on our tail!" Alexis was about to protest to her calling her 'Belle,' but agreed with Larry: this argument can wait.

"Look in the department in front of you," he told her with his eyes still on the road. She did so, pulling the handle and opening it. "Grab the gun." To Alexis' surprise, there was actually a gun in there. "Are you familiar with guns?" He asked her.

"Just this one."
"This one?"
"The Baretta 87 Target? Yes, I'm familiar with this one."

This is the same gun Alexis' father had. She wasn't young and dumb enough to shoot herself, but she just observed it every chance she got. Looking at it brings back memories. Such a coincidence!

Larry was amused with the fact that she knew the gun, but decided not to get caught up in the moment; there's police on their tail. "Look up in the ceiling deposit and grabbed the suppressor," he instructed her. Alexis did so, closing the deposit and putting the silencer on the gun.

"Slow down a little," she instructed him. He nodded at her then did so, pressing the window button for her in the process. Alexis slipped on sunglasses while waiting for the window to raise down by itself then hung out the window. The cops started getting closer as the car got slower.

She closed her left eye and aimed. She shot, denting the glass. Only a dent, she thought. "Fuck!" She started firing numerous shots into the glass until it broke. Then she fired a shot, killing the driver, making it run off course and crash then explode. However, this didn't affect the other 2 police cruisers. This made Alexis catch an idea. 

She shot the 2 front tires of the car, making the car slow down severely, causing the police cruiser behind them ram into the back of the one in front at full force. Then then fired shots into the front cruiser's windshield until it shattered.

"Slower Larry!" She said reloading.
"How slow do you want me to go!"

"As possible," she said not wanting Larry to just slam on the breaks to avoid him crashing through the windshield and her flying out the window. "What?" He asked confused. "Why?"

"Just do it!" She yelled harshly. Larry decided not to argue with her because, after all, she's the one that's shooting. Larry changed the car transmission to neutral.

With the cars stopped, Alexis put time into her last shot; she wanted it to be a head shot. She aimed the pistol, closing her left eye. Then took shot, killing the officer. As the car cruised away, Alexis fired another shot into the passenger of the front cruiser's head. "Bull's eye," she said to herself. She fired numerous shot into the front car, causing the car to explode. The explosion of that car caused the back one to explode as well.

Alexis got back in the car. "Go! Now!" She yelled as she pulled the window button up. Larry put the car in drive and sped away at full speed and got back en route to Kentucky.

Alexis couldn't just help but think:

Did I just kill cops and rob a store with someone I just met yesterday?
