AN: So here is the first chapter of the sequel of What Do I Stand For. This is based in London when Gabriella has to live with Shaw, it goes throughout the two years she was away from the gang. There will be flashbacks of the team and Dom, but they will only be in this story a little bit. I hope you guys enjoy this! Shaw doesn't know that his brother is dead until probably about six months later, since Jack is about two in the movie, and he finally seeks revenge I am assuming since he was on the run he didn't really find out about Owen until then.

Gabriella didn't know what to expect when she moved off the plane in London, England. She clung to her bag that was hanging on her shoulder as she looked around at her surroundings. Sure she had been through some shit in her life but she would be lying if she said she wasn't scared. She was scared to death. She didn't know what to expect. She didn't know if this was a trap. Deckard Shaw's brother was still alive and Dom was the cause of him being in a coma. She knew he was going to kill her, it was just a matter of time. None of it made sense to her, none of it. What was so special about her that this man wanted her so bad? She couldn't wrap her mind around it at all. She looked over at Gavin, whose face was hard. She knew he was no longer the Gavin she knew. He made eye contact with her and for a split second, she knew in his eyes that everything was going to be okay. She took a deep breath as she began to follow the men. Her hands were shaking as they walked through the double doors of the building. "You can go, leave her here." His voice made her jump as she looked over at Gavin, who this time, didn't make eye contact with her. She took a deep breath as she set her stuff down on the floor before taking a seat herself. "Are you hungry?"
"No." She replied softly. She didn't even know if he even heard her moving around. She put her hand in her lap as she looked at her surroundings. She suddenly became sad as tears sprung to her eyes. She shook her head trying to keep them from falling out. She covered her face with her hands as the tears betrayed her and fell down her face.
"I'm sure you have questions, I will answer whatever you want to know. Right now," Gabriella looked up. He was standing in front of her with a tissue hanging from his fingers. She reached for it. "I am going to show you where you will be staying. The house is just up the street from here. Grab your things and follow me." She didn't respond as she grabbed her bags from floor and followed him. There was a car waiting for them outside as she climbed in before it after giving her bags to the driver. She wiped her face again as she looked up at him as he entered the car. "The house." He replied before turning his attention back to her. He wasn't bad looking to look at. His head was shaved, but wasn't bald like Dom. He had hazel eyes that were literally staring into her soul. He wasn't huge but he was built, she could tell he worked out. "Are you finished?" He asked. Her head shot up to him.
"What?" She whispered.
"Looking me over, are you finished?"
She nodded her head at him as she turned to look out the window. She had never been to London before, it was beautiful. The sun was shining bright as she felt the car jerk. She looked over at Shaw again who was still looking at her. "Are you going to kill my brother?" She asked. He licked his bottom lip before shaking his head.
"Now why would you think that?"
She shook her head again. "Why did you want me then?"
"I have been watching you for quite some time now. Ever since your brother took on Braga back in Los Angeles, I had my eye on you the moment you moved to San Diego."
"What's so special about me?"
"You don't think you're special?" His eyes were soft. She looked out the window again. "My brother, you might know him, he has this soft spot for falling in love. He was in love once but she committed suicide a few years ago…"
"And you? Have you ever been in love?"
"I think its rubbish."
She nodded her head. "Have you ever been in love?"
"Don't." She whispered. "You don't get to do that."
"I'll take that as a yes then."
"Just kill me and get it over with." The car jolted again. She realized it had stopped as she looked out the window. They were at the house. It was huge. There was a fence surrounding the entire estate. The door opened as Shaw motioned for her to get out. She moved past him and climbed out of the car and looked up. The house was made of stone with two large statues standing on both sides of the entrance. She looked around at the land. Then she saw the gate. It was guarded by three men with guns. She shook her head as Shaw cleared his throat. She looked up at him. "You will be staying here."
"And where will you be staying?"
"I'll be staying here as well. You will have the west wing of the house, where I will be staying on the east. You will not have access to any computers, cell phones. You will be searched when we get inside. It would be best that you do not fight them, if they find something they will take it. Dinner will be at six o'clock sharp. You can come eat or you can starve. I will not force you to do anything you don't want to do. But I will not have you causing trouble."
She nodded her head as she took in a deep breath. "Ricardo will take your bags up to your room for you. You are more than welcome to look around. There are cameras in parts of the house. I have armed men set around the entire house. They are trained to kill."
She nodded her head again as she looked up just as Gavin walked out of the front door. She became relieved to see him standing there. Mario appeared next to him. "Show Gabriella to her quarters please. I will see you at dinner." Gabriella nodded her head as she moved forward following Ricardo into the house. "Search her." She heard Shaw. She stopped as she looked behind her, Gavin was standing there.
"I have a cell phone in my pocket." She replied. "That's all I have." Gavin nodded his head as he reached behind her grabbing the phone from her pocket. Tears formed in her eyes.
"Hold your arms out." She nodded her head as she lifted her arms and spread her legs. He ran the wand over her body. Her lip trembled as he set the wand down on the ground and began using his hands. She had never felt so uncomfortable in her life. When he was finished she turned away from him and walked up the stairs to where Ricardo was waiting for her. She wiped her face of the fallen tears as they walked to two double doors. He opened them both, revealing her room. It was huge. Vintage. She loved it. She walked in turning in a circle as she looked around. "Your bathroom is through those doors. Do you need anything else?" Gabriella shook her head as she walked into the bathroom. There was a free standing tub in the middle of the room. The shower was made of stone as well. She walked into it, the shower heads where built into the ceiling with two of them in the wall. She was amazed. This place was amazing. With what she knew about him, she couldn't understand why he had a place like this. The government wanted him dead but yet he had a mansion in the middle of London.
There was a knock on the door before Gavin and Mario walked in. She smiled at them as she sat on the bed. If one thing was certain she was happy Gavin was there with her. She didn't know what was going to happen or how her life was going to end up but she was so happy he was on her side. "I need the code to your phone."
"I haven't talked to anyone. They think I am dead, Gavin."
"We need to look in your phone."
"Does he know? Does he know that his brother is dead?"
Gavin shook his head. "So when he finds out, I am dead?"
"He will not hurt you."
"I'm so scared, Gavin." She wiped her face. "It's 1327."
"I will not let anything happen to you." He assured her.
"But what happens to my family when he finds out?"
Gavin didn't speak. "Shaw spoke of love in the car, is that what this is? He's in love with me?"
Someone cleared their throat behind them as Gabriella stood up. "Did you get the code?" Shaw was standing there.
"I need the code." Gavin said again eyeing her.
"I have memories on that phone. I have my life on there. What do you need with my phone?"
"Give us a minute. Leave the phone." Shaw demanded. Gavin handed the phone to Shaw before both him and Mario left the room. Gabriella moved toward the middle of the bed. "You gave up your life in Los Angeles. You faked your death, your family thinks you are dead."
"But they aren't dead to me." She whispered. He nodded his head. "You asked me if I was in love. I had the pleasure of being in love twice in my life. I was young with my first love, he was killed. Someone shot him twelve times. Then I met my love now, I don't know life without him but you took him from me. He watched as someone broke my neck. I can still hear him screaming for me as they drug his body by mine. I might never see him again. If you think that I will love you back you are wrong."
"Give me the code." He demanded. "We can do this the hard way, but I promise you I will get the code one way or another."
"1327." She replied. "The code is 1327."
He had left the room but she remained on the bed. She looked around the room as she felt the pain her heart begin to grow. She brought her legs up to her chest as she fell over on the bed and sobbed. "Dom, I'm so scared." She squeezed her eyes shut as the bed became soaked with her tears. She had no idea what she had gotten herself into but she was now regretting the decision she had made. She would give anything in the world to be with her family. She let her mind wonder what they were doing at that moment. As she thought about her family, she slowly slipped into a deep sleep.
He opened the door of the room as he sat at the dinner table for forty five minutes, he realized she wasn't coming. He stormed up to her room and knocked multiple times but no answer. He slowly walked in as she noticed she was on the bed in a ball. He rushed over to her pushing her on her back and feeling her neck for a pulse. He sighed as he realized she had one. He looked down at her peacefully sleeping, she was beautiful. He pushed the hair from her face and ran his hand down the side of her face. "If things were different, you would have always been mine." He brought her hand to his lips and kissed it softly before turning around and leaving the room.
Gabriella woke up to the darkness in the room, she didn't know she had slept the entire day away. She stretched her arms above her head and tossed her legs over the side of the bed. Her stomach growled. She didn't have a clue of what time it was as she walked to the door. She peeked outside before emerging and walking downstairs to the kitchen. She looked around for something to eat and settled on just having cereal. He had her favorite. It creeped her out that he knew so much about her but yet she only knew a little about him. "Late night snack?" Mario was behind her causing her to jump. "I saw you come downstairs."
"I didn't eat dinner, I was starving." She mentioned. "What time is it?"
"Midnight. You've been asleep for a while."
"I was tired." She pulled the milk from the refrigerator. "How long have you worked for Shaw?"
"About four years now." He pulled a spoon from the drawer and handed it to her.
"Do you have to watch everything that I do?" She sat down on the stool. She began eating the cereal realizing it definitely what she wanted.
"I am your security, yes." He smiled at her. "Like I said I heard you come from your room, its midnight so I didn't know what you were going to do."
"Does Shaw really think that I am going to try to escape this early in the game?"
"Actually, I'm pretty surprised you haven't tried to fight someone." Shaw appeared next to her. "You can leave." He pointed to Mario. She put her spoon down and sighed. "I had a plate made for you since you missed dinner. You were sleeping." She didn't respond. "I also have this for you." He had a cell phone in his hand. "This isn't yours, it doesn't work. You cannot get it to work. I transferred all your pictures on to it. And your playlist." She didn't reach for it so he put it on the counter next to her.
She threw away the rest of her cereal as she grabbed the phone from the counter and began to look through everything. He was right, they were all there. She smiled as tears filled her eyes. She brought the phone to her chest and closed her eyes. She moved up the stairs to her room and laid down on the bed as she began to look through all the pictures. She had everyone in them. She cried herself to sleep that night holding the phone to her chest. She didn't realize as she slept that night that this was going to be home for the rest of her life. She only had the memories left now, and the pictures that would soon become too much.
