Gangstress

September 1999 (3)

***Angel's POV***

Today, me, Prodigy, and Havoc were all shooting the music video for the Quiet Storm remix, and I was fuckin' exhausted. Prodigy had recently asked me if I could run a couple kilos of coke or some weed for him every now and then to his buyer, and I agreed. I didn't mind doing it, plus he was giving me a cut of the sales so I was making a little extra side cash which I enjoyed. So, I had been staying up pretty late helping him with that for the last few nights. 

We all showed up to the music video set at around ten am, and I specifically drove the car that I recently bought because Alb had asked me if I could run another one over tonight. I figured why the hell not. We'd finish this shoot, I'd run it over, and then I could go back to his place and spend the night. 

He said it was always better if you could get a chick to run it, because if I got caught, they would give me less time. He said he even heard of instances where the chick didn't even get arrested, because it's apparently just so outta the norm for girls to sell. I knew that far too well. When I was selling back when I was younger, I had gotten caught once and they didn't even charge me. Probably because it was just a small amount of weed on me, but still. 

As soon as we arrived on set, as usual, I was taken into hair and makeup, while Havoc and Prodigy were taken to get their outfits on. The video was supposed to be set in a club, and there were red lights all over giving it a sort of creepy and underground ambiance. 

The put me in a super long, blonde wig with a black body suit, and thigh high black boots. They also put a black durag over top of my wig and we were ready to start shooting our first scenes together. 

Havoc and Prodigy had already been shooting their stand alone scenes, and scenes together in a car where they're talking and rapping, so they had been ready to go for awhile. The first scenes we shot were of us three with a whole crowd of people behind us. That was gonna be the main scene of all of us, so we ran through all of our verses, and my chorus in that scene so it ended up taking us a lot longer to do that one rather than the others. 

By the time we were done with that scene and all of Prodigy and Havoc's stand alone scenes, it had gotten really late. I figured we weren't gonna be able to shoot it all in one day anyway, so it was no surprise when they told us all to come back tomorrow, and the day after that. 

I went to the dressing room and they took off the wig, and I put my regular clothes back on. After I was finished I walked out to the main area and found Havoc and Prodigy waiting for me. 

"Yo, ya ready?" Havoc jutted his chin out at me. 

"Yeah, let's go." We waved 'bye' to all the people working on the music video and made our way back out to our cars. Prodigy opened his trunk and he transferred only one small package of weed to my trunk. 

"That's it?" I knitted my eyebrows at him. 

He nodded. "Yeah, it's all he wanted for right now." 

I shurgged. "Okay." 

"Aight baby, ya straight?" Prodigy asked as he lowered my trunk back down. 

I nodded. "Yep! I'll run this, then I'll meet ya back at your place, right?" 

"That's the plan." He gave me a quick kiss on my lips. "I'll see ya soon, aight?" 

"Sounds good!" I walked to the drivers side of my car and jumped in. I started driving towards the place that I was dropping off at and I turned my radio all the way up. I was singing along to some top 40s song when about thirty minutes later I saw red and blue lights behind me. 

"Oh fuck." I muttered to myself as I pulled over. I was so fuckin' close too. Only a few blocks away. I turned the music all the way down and pulled out my drivers license and insurance documents while the cop parked behind me.
