A/N: I do not own anything F&F. Only thing that is mine is my OC. Smut is a given, but there will be a warning so you can skip the chapter if need be. Thoughts are italicized. Flashbacks are bold. R&R.

Chapter One: The calm before the storm

"V…" Anabelle whispered as she shifted nervously from side to side. She needed to tell him, but she was afraid. What if he wasn't ready for this kind of responsibility? "Spit it out Bee," he said gruffly. Typical Vince, her Vince she thought to herself. She took a deep breath and looked him in the eyes, knowing her's were probably glassed over with tears "I'm pregnant"

There it was it was out. She could breathe, that was until she thought about the fact that she had to tell her brother…

"Guys, this is my sister Anabelle. Belle, that's Dom, Letty, Mia, Jesse, and that's Old Coyote's R us, Vince" Leon said as he gestured around the room. Anabelle smiled and nodded softly to each of the people she introduced until he got to Vince. She looked at him and her cheeks turned a bright shade of red and her heart sped up. He was tall, muscular, tattooed, and to top it all off…he had a beard. Everyone said their hello's as Dom made his way over to her, offering her a hand. "Nice to finally meet you, Leon has said a lot about you." "Yeah he did but not that you were so fineeee" Jesse said in his normal tone, drawing out the last vowel of the word fine. Three things happened to Jesse in that moment: Leon glared at him, Belle chuckled, and Vince smacked him against the back of the head. Leon whistled as everyone started to disperse "Listen, let's get this straight. My baby sister is not a fucking racer chaser, don't treat her like one." Everyone chuckled including Anabelle "I'm 20 years old Le-Le. I think I can handle myself." And that's when she heard it, that booming laugh. She turned and saw Vince with his hand on the wall, laughing at the nickname he just heard his friend be called. Vince made his way over to Belle and slid his hand on her lower back, pulling her close to him to get a rise out of Leon "Yeah Le-Le. She can handle herself." And that was when it started. That simple touch, a simple hand on her back and she knew she was done for.

Vince looked at his brown haired beauty and smirked. He knew exactly when and where that happened, and he wasn't exactly surprised. "The shop?" he asked as he made his way over to her. He pushed the hair out of her face and cupped her cheeks. "I love you bee, but you know your brother is going to kill the both of us right?" He said adding a chuckle to the end of his statement showing her that he wasn't worried about it because he knew that she was. He leaned down and kissed her forehead before kissing her lips. Once she felt his lips against hers, she wrapped her arms around his neck and stood up on her tip toes to get a better angle since he was so much taller than him. She pulled away slightly and rubbed her nose against his. "I love you too V."

When they made their way downstairs, Leon was sitting on the couch nursing what was left of his beer, while everyone else was in the backyard getting ready for dinner. She looked up at Vince and shook her head lightly. Not that she thought her brother was a mean drunk, but he was just…different when he drank. They made their way into the kitchen with their linked fingers. Once she was sure no one could hear them she whispered "I wanna wait until after my first doctor's appointment." Vince nodded in agreement and grabbed a Corona out of the fridge "Whatever you want babe. Let's go see if Dom and Mia need any help"

Outside they separated Vince to Dom and Anabelle to Mia and Letty. She sat down at the picnic table and started making the salad for dinner, focusing on the lettuce as Mia leaned over the table, trying to get her attention. "So did you tell him?!" she asked in hushed tone. Belle's head shot up and she looked at Mia and then glancing over to Letty who had her eyebrow raised in a typical Letty fashion. "Tell who what?" "Mia!" Letty and Belle both said at the same time. Mia smiled and put her hands up before she backed up and focused on another part of the dinner. "What was that about?" Letty asked the second question, and when she realized that no one was going to give her an answer she grabbed her beer and walked inside to join the rest of the guys, she wasn't cut out for this chick shit.

Dom announced that dinner was ready and everyone made their way outside and to the table. It was filled with food and beer. Vince came out with a red solo cup filled with milk for Belle and another Corona for himself. Everyone sat down in their usual spot; Dom, Jesse, Mia Brian, Leon, Letty, Belle's chair, and Vince, Belle always sat on Vince's lap so no one really thought that was any different tonight. What Dom did notice was that Vince's hand rested securely over her stomach, instead of her hip or her thigh where he usually kept it; and that Belle was drinking milk and not having a beer like she was accustomed to. A smirk danced across his face as he kicked Vince's foot, getting his attention. V looked over at Dom, who smiled and tilted his beer to him. The two of them had known each other since third grade so they knew what each other's looks meant, and at that moment Vince knew Dom knew. He ran his thumb over her stomach softly and Belle leaned back against him, relaxing as she laughed at something Jesse said.

It was the calm before the storm and what a powerful storm it was going to be.
