Sneak up on them!

As the lively, mildly bitchy girl entered the store with her much more ****, nervous friend behind her, My face went cherry red, and I hastily ducked down below the rack as their phone lights scanned the pitch black store. Within seconds of entering, the girl named Tina loudly whistled as her lights shone across the various goods and wares around the store. “Alright… Grab whatever you think you can carry. And be quick, because we gotta clear out of this place within like 30 minutes.”

Tina immediately went towards the jeans section, snooping through the clothes for as many jeans pairs that were in her size as she could find. Susie was noticeably much more ****, only eyeing up the sock section a bit and seeming to hesitate. In that moment, I was at least thankful I was in the area where the purses and bags were. They would likely have no reason to investigate my section, but the fact that I was pretty much naked while two girls were robbing the place was both humiliating and made me feel useless! This was almost the entire reason I worked here, was to prevent this from happening! I’d even started taking a few self-defense classes in the afternoons to be better prepared! Now because I’d gone and stripped down I was almost powerless to stop them!

Even though only one of the pair was actually doing much of any looting, she was making quick work of the whole store. Her bag was full in less than a minute, at which point she promptly seized a nearby suitcase from my own section, and started to fill it with whatever she found that suited her vague interests. She motioned to her friend. “Look, if you aren’t going to grab something for yourself yet, can you at least grab this and take it outside?” She asked, extending the overfilled bag to her partner.

At the rate she was going, within a half hour she would make out with half the store inventory at least! I thought about what my friend had said. The profits of the store were intentionally kept pretty low bar, so that she could keep the money spent by customers to a minimum while also maintaining enough profit to properly pay her employees and expenses. Her insurance was fairly minimalist, on account of her trusting me to keep the store from getting torn apart at night. In short, if this kept up, they would absolutely steal enough to put the whole place out of business. Probably for good!

It was at this moment, that I felt that same calling to action is already felt several times at this point. Despite how embarrassed I was of being like this, possibly getting seen, or any number of harbored anxieties about my current predicament, I HAD to stop these two. I wouldn’t be able to sleep knowing I’d tried to do nothing at all, so I decided I’d have to do something. Even if it was ****.

I realized that the pitch black darkness of the store, coupled with my adjusted vision, meant I was now able to navigate the store freely without using my watch. I removed the watch and set it on the floor for later, deciding that the light would be more of a hinderance than an advantage. If I was going to try and stop this, I needed to get the drop on both of them at the same time, getting them to the floor so they wouldn’t be able to retaliate.

I began snaking my way through the clothes racks, ducking below them to make sure not a single strand of light from one of the girls’ phone lights caught a glimpse of me. I lucked out that they both had their backs turned to me for the majority of the time, and avoided detection completely. I started to realize that the rain echoing off the rooftop, coupled with the lack of clothes on my part resulted in me being able to approach the pair without them ever noticing. I made not a single sound as the blonde girl searched through a rack of purple dresses, while her nervous partner’s wandering eyes constantly threatened to see me peeking at them from behind a nearby shelf full of jeans just 20 feet away.

I noticed her getting distracted, and looking towards the dresses that her friend was looking through, and before I could let myself hesitate, I sprung into action. I abandoned stealth for speed, sprinting full speed at the pair. The heavy footsteps against the carpet flooring alerted them immediately, but they didn’t have enough time to turn around before I promptly tackled the blonde girl to the floor, having deemed her the much bigger threat in the room.

“What the hell? Susie, is that you?!” Tina outcried, tumbling down to the ground as she dropped her phone. I was about to kick the phone away to prevent her from getting a visual, but I was suddenly pulled by the shoulders backwards, and fell back onto the ground.

“There’s someone else! Help me out, quick! They’re strong!” The girl named Susie pleaded. I’d thought the girl would freeze up and let me do what poor plan I’d had in mind, but she had actually kept her cool and composure up enough to pull me off of her friend! This was especially bad, because now I had to turn around and attempt to deal with her as well!

I was able to pull the girls legs out from underneath her, which took several seconds as she resisted being brought to the ground. Then, with her having fallen, I immediately stood up with as much speed as I could muster. I turned around to try and take the phone from Tina, but what I saw before me was an immediate surprise.

"DON'T FUCKING MOVE!" The blonde girl exclaimed. The blonde’s phone light promptly shone brightly directly at me, followed by a bright red recording button on the phone camera facing me. I was too stunned by the sudden brightness to react fully at first, and merely rose my hands up in an attempt to shield my eyes from the light. My eyes began to slowly adjust, and I noticed that the girl was backing away a bit, a few strides out of reach.

“Holy shit. Susie. Get up, now.” Tina said, breathily. Susie slowly managed to get back on her feet, smoothing out her clothes as she circled around me to Tina’s side.

Tina’s eyes were widened, and I noticed them looking me up and down as she walked past. It was then, that my momentary shock gave way to **** embarrassment! Everything was on display! Worse yet, it was being recorded! My hands immediately abandoned my face, but I was left with a great dilemma. I tried to cover up my boobs with both hands, but that left my pussy in plain view. When I tried to cover my breasts and pussy, my face was completely visible to the camera!

Susie had managed to right herself, and circle over to where her friend was standing. The pair stared blatantly for several seconds at me, seeming too bewildered to actually say much of anything. Finally, after several seconds, the blonde girl managed a smug grin, and spoke. "So, are you just some sort of perverted exhibitionist?" She asked.

The question caught me off guard, in part because of the accusation behind it but also due to the fact that my heightened adrenaline, quickening heartbeat, and partial shock at my current situation. "I... err... I work here..." I stammered, my voice wavering as I felt the gaze of both the girls in front of me wandering, and my eyes kept drawing back to the camera. This situation was extremely humiliating!

"You work here? Really?" Tina said, scoffing a bit. "Well, this is the most relaxed dress code I've ever seen. What's up with that?" She asked, looking me up and down.

I couldn't answer her, not at first. "I uhh.... Well... The rain...." I managed, my ability to speak slowly getting more and more strained. It was getting increasingly hard to think clearly, with a camera and two pairs of eyes firmly locked in my direction.

"The rain? What the fuck does that mean? Seriously, what the fuck is going on?" Tina said, shaking her head while looking to her friend. Susie looked back and forth between Tina and I, before shaking her head, and pointing at Tina. "No, no no no. Don't look at me. You scouted this place out, you said it would be fine, and nobody that didn't deserve it would get hurt! If this place is deserted all night, then who the FUCK is that??" Susie exclaimed, pointing at me. I took a step back, flushing red as their eyes both came back to me.

Tina's eyes narrowed, before speaking directly to me. "Well, what are YOU doing here? This place is closed! Why the fuck are you here? Do you just break into stores bare assed to get your rocks off or something?" Tina loudly questioned, the tone far more accusing than actually curious.

"I... No! I just... I work overnight, doing some cleaning and upkeep around the store!" I stammered. I told them most of the truth, but knew it was very much in my best interest to leave out the bit about my duty to keep watch for potential thieves.

Tina and Susie stared for a moment, before Susie spoke up, albeit in almost a whisper. "...You're an overnight janitor?" She asked, raising an eyebrow.

I could only awkwardly manage a nod, averting my face sheepishly as I desperately tried to move my arms to offer more coverage.

Susie raised an eyebrow, now seeming a bit more comfortable, but now seeming to be a bit more inquisitive. "What kind of overnight janitor goes around wearing nothing shoes? I mean, this is a clothes store. There's no shortage of stuff to wear."

I decided that telling the truth here would be my best option, since almost any other lie I could produce either sounded unbelievable or worse. "I ended up getting soaked in the rain, so I came inside and decided to take all my clothes off near the back door so I could avoid tracking water inside..."

I began to feel heat on my face as the two girls seemed to just stare at me, absorbing what I'd told them. After a few seconds, Susie pointed to a rack nearby. "There's uhh... If you want to get dressed there's a dress rack right there..." She managed, pointing to my right. My eyes scanned to the right and sure enough, some red dresses were on the rack for sale at a discounted price. I immediately began to feel stupid for not doing so earlier, but I reached for the dress hastily.

"Woah! Hey! Hold up!" Tina exclaimed, waving her hand at me. "Let's not forget our situation here. The moment you get dressed, you could come at us again with whatever sort of ninja bullshit that was when you tackled me. So long as you DON'T get dressed, and I keep my camera nice and fixated, you can stay just where you are. You try ANY funny business, and I send this shit to every single person I can think of off the top of my head. This is going straight onto my cloud, so taking my phone won't stop anything either!" Tina said, motioning with her hand towards the rack. "Now, put it back. And stay still while me and my partner talk it out." She said, beaming a half-heartless smile in my direction. I very reluctantly began to ease the dress back onto the rack, and flushed a bright red as I realized that the girl was effectively using **** to keep me from trying something again.

The two began to whisper to each other, in such a low voice that I couldn't even make out what they were saying. Whatever it was, it involved something that was making the blonde grin ear to ear, and her friend seemed a bit upset, and as if trying to argue against something. Finally, after almost a minute of standing around, the pair broke apart, with Susie looking much more **** than her smug partner.

"What's your name?" Tina asked, smirking.

"...Brooke." I answered sheepishly.

"Alright Brooke. Well, I'm fairly sure you know why we're here. So, we've already lost a fair amount of time to dealing with you jumping us. I know you have to be feeling pretty bad about it, so I'm willing to offer you a way to make up for it!" Tina said, smiling ear to ear. I gulped as I realized they had a specific **** task in mind for me.
