"That's what? A three story fall to the deck?" Pope asks. Lettie smiles, looking up to the roof where John B is balancing, a beer in hand, "I give you about a one in three chance of survival."
"Those are pretty decent odds if you think about it," Lettie chirps, watching as John B tests the wind direction with his finger.
He smirks, looking down to the scaffolding that's holding up Lettie and her beloved blond boyfriend, Jj, "What do you think, Let? Should I do it?"
The brunette swallows a mouthful of beer, about to respond when Pope cuts her off, "Yeah, you should jump," He holds up the drill he had been inspecting, "I'll shoot you on the way down."
"You gonna shoot me?" John B asks, raising his hand and making a gun with his fingers, shooting Pope with a small 'pew' noise.
Kiara's voice suddenly echoes onto the patio, "They're gonna have Japanese toilets with towel warmers," She complains. The curly headed brunette had gone inside to explore the under construction condo the group had invaded.
Pope rolls his eyes, as Jj says, "Of course, why wouldn't they?"
"This used to be a turtle habitat, but who cares about the turtles, I guess?"
Lettie frowns, "Is a towel warmer really that essential?"
Jj smirks from beside Lettie, "I can't have cold towels!" The brunette rolls her eyes, a smile on her face as she catches Jj's eyes. He takes another swig of the beer in his hands, lightly throwing his arm around the brunette's shoulders.
Kiara looks up to the roof, where John B is still balancing, "Can you please not kill yourself?" She asks.
Jj and Lettie bring their sets of blue eyes back to John B, "You better not spill that beer!" Jj hollars, "I'm not giving you another one!"
"Oh he's definitely gonna spill it now," Lettie remarks.
Sure enough, a strong gust of wind makes John B curse, the beer falling from his hands onto the deck below.
Lettie turns to Jj, "Called it."
Jj shakes his head, meeting his girlfriend's eyes,"Of course he did, like right when I told him not to."
"Do you think he did to spite you?" Lettie asks, a teasing tone in her voice.
"Oh definitely," Jj nods, earning a giggle from the brunette beside him, "The guys hated me for years."
Lettie is about to give him a snarky replay when a shout in the distance catched her attention, along with Pope's nervous voice, "Hey, uh, security's here. Let's wrap it up."
Without waiting, Lettie swings down from the scaffolding, not really paying attention to the words of the group. Her scuffed up vans meet the deck and she quickly downs the rest of her beer, and does her best to tuck it into her back pocket, knowing Kie would kill her if she left it behind.
Lettie turns to Kiara, the girl's doing their signature handshake, ending with a two finger salute at the end, "Let's go boys," Kiara smirks, as soon as they're done.
"Gary is that you?" Jj calls, still on top of the scaffolding,
Lettie grins, "Gary's here!? I missed that guy!" She catches Pope's eyes from across the space, and he playfully rolls his eyes at her.
"Gary! Good to see you man!" Jj continues to taunt, finally landing his feet on the deck.
"You're just asking for it," Kiara teases, watching as Jj moves past her into the condo. Lettie lets out an excited cheer, ready for the fun part as she and the pogues start to run through the house. She's right behind Jj as he leads the way, because why wouldn't he? The group skips down the stairs and turn once they meet the main floor.
