Chapter One
Ring…ring…ring...
"Ugh, Brian, are you going to answer that?" Mia groaned while rolling over to the other side of the bed. Brain looked at the clock and saw that it was 8:00 in the morning, which was too early, in Brian's opinion, to be getting up after the huge party last night. He figured that if it was important then the person calling him would leave a message, but luck was not on his side as his phone started to ring again. Without looking to see who it was he reached his hand over and answered his phone.
"Hello?" He asked, trying to get rid of the sleep in his voice.
"Brian?" a female's voice asked. Upon hearing the voice he was insistently awake.
"Amy, is that you?"
"Yeah, it's me." Amy said with a nervous chuckle. After a moment of silence she spoke again. "I need a huge favor." She rushed out, afraid of his reaction.
"What kind of favor are we talking about?" Brian asked cautiously.
"I, umm, kind of…need you to, umm, pick me up."
"Where are you? What's wrong?" He asked suddenly worried that something bad had happened to her.
"Promise you'll pick me up first."
"Amy, I don't like the sound of this."
"Promise me Brian." Amy begged.
"Alright, I'll pick you up. Now where are you?"
"I'm in prison." Amy confessed. There was complete silence on the other side of the phone.
"Where?" Brian asked wondering why she would be in prison because the last he knew she was serving in the Marine Corps.
"The San Fran military prison." She said quietly, hoping that he would still pick her up.
"Alright," Brian said calmly, trying not to overreact. "When do you need me to pick you up?"
"I'm getting released today." She confessed.
"Okay, I'm in LA right now but I'll leave in the next ten minutes or so."
"Thank you so much Brian." She said relieved, "and Brian…I love you."
"I love you too; I'll see you when I get there." He said as he hung up the phone and put it back on the night table. Brian then turned and woke Mia up gently.
"Hey, there's something that I have to do but I'll be back sometime tomorrow."
"What do you have to do at 8:00 on a Sunday morning?" Mia asked groggily.
"I'll tell you when I get back." He said and then leaned down and kissed the top of her head before he got up and left. Since everyone had major hangovers nobody else was up and he was able to slip out of the house without any questions.
It was around two in the afternoon when he pulled up to the prison. Making his way inside the prison he was stopped by a man dressed in military attire.
"What is your business here, sir?"
"I'm here to pick up Amy O'Connor; I was told that she was being released today."
With a nod of the man's head he said, "if you'll wait here for a moment she'll be right out." About a half hour past before he saw his sister being lead out by a female military officer. Neither said a word to each other and they both just sat in the car waiting for the other to speak.
"I'm sorry you had to come get me, I just didn't know who else to call."
"Don't be, I'm glad you called. Even if I imagined that I would be picking you up from an airport once you were done serving instead of a prison but I'm glad that you're okay. So how exactly did you end up in prison and why didn't you tell me?"
"I tried to call but they said you were undercover, so it would be best not to talk to you."
"So how did you get my cell number then because I had it changed a while back?"
"It took a bit of time and a lot of explaining but I was able to get it."
"I forgot how resourceful you could be and how east you can dodge questions. So how did you end up in prison?"
"I received a bad conduct discharge; let's just leave it as that." Amy said, not wanting to talk about it anymore.
"You hungry because I'm starving." Brian asked to change the subject.
"Only if you're paying because I kind of have no money on me right at this moment." Amy joked.
Brian just nodded his head, turned on the car, and drove to an Ihop that he passed on the way in. It didn't take long to get there and they were able to get a table right away since they missed the lunch rush. Once their orders were placed Brian decided to break the silence, "So, do you know what you are going to do now that you're out?"
"I have no idea, all my benefits were taken away from me after the bad conduct discharge and it's going to be hard to find a job with that hanging over my head but I have some money said up that should get me by for a little bit." She said with a fake smile. Amy only asked for Brian to pick her up, not to help her get back on her feet, so it was her problem to deal with.
"Let me make a quick call, I'll be right back." He said as he got up and made his way outside. Just as he was about to call Dom his phone started to ring. "Speak of the devil." He muttered under his breath.
"Hey Dom." He said, answering his phone.
"What's this that I hear about you leaving for a few days without any notice?"
"Something important came up and I was just about to call you. Some things came up with my sister and she needs a place to stay."
"What kind of things happened, Brian?" Dom asked cautiously, wondering what trouble Brian's sister had gotten into.
Taking a deep breath Brian explains, "I just picked her up from the San Fran military prison. She received a bad conduct discharge from the Marine Corps but she won't tell me what for. She's a good person Dom so there must have been a good reason for her to end up in prison."
"I want to meet her before I agree to anything. When are you getting back?"
"Well we're getting some food right now but I could probably be back on the road by four at the latest which would get me back in LA around ten but I'm not sure if there is anything that she needs to take care of up here and if that's the case then we'll probably just hit the road tomorrow morning. I'll send you a text when I know what's happening."
"Alright we'll talk more when you get back." With that said Dom hung up the phone not waiting for a response.
"Well he didn't say no." Brain said quietly to himself and make his way back inside to see that there food was on the table. "You didn't have to wait for me." Brain said to his sister as he sat down at the table. "So you still don't like coffee after all these years." He joked when he saw hot chocolate in front of her.
"Coffee tastes like watered down shit, I don't know how you drink it."
"Well you made the mistake to trying it black and I drink mine with lots of sugar."
Brain waited until after they were done eating and back in the car to ask her about her plans again.
"I still don't know what I want to do." Amy admitted, she was usually the person that would have things planned out so not having a plan was frustrating.
"You could always come back to LA with me."
"Are you sure? I don't want to mess up anything you have going for you there."
"It's fine, I'm glad to have you back."
"Well in that case we need to make a quick stop at my military storage container to get my stuff."
"Alright, just tell me the where to go." He said putting the car into drive. About twenty minutes later they pulled up to Amy's storage container. The container was pretty much bare except for four black duffle bags. "Is that all you have?" Brain asked as they loaded the duffle bags in the care, "and what the hell do you have in this one?" He asked raising the smallest duffle bag that contained some weight to it.
"That would be the money that I had saved up." Amy said giving a smirk.
"How the hell did you get this much? When you were talking about having money saved up I didn't thing you would have this much!"
"Well I rarely spent the money that we made when we were teenagers, so I guess it just piled up after a while." She said with a shrug of her shoulders.
Brain waited until they were both in the car before he spoke again. "So you're telling me that that bag of money is from when we boosted cars together?" He asked, still no believing that they were able to make that much money.
"Umm, not really, I kind of made a name for myself while you were in juvie until I got caught and I choose the military instead of going to juvie. Which kind of turned out the same since I still ended up in prison for a year."
"You were in there for a whole year!"
"Yeah, and I don't want to talk about it. Shouldn't we be on our way back to LA right now?"
Brian sent a quick text to Dom to let him know they were coming tonight while he started the car up and headed towards LA. When they were on the highway Brian spoke again. "You're going to have to talk about it when we get there. The people that I live with are cautious about who they let in." He said giving her a heads up.
"Fine." She said unhappily and leaned her seat back to she could get some sleep. The next thing she knew she was being woken up by Brian and that they were in front of a house.
"Come on, it's time to meet the team." He said as he got out of the car and waited for his sister to do the same. After putting her seat up back in the upright position she took a deep breath and exited the car. Her nerves started to kick in as she and Brain made their way towards the front door.
