The sounds of Leon and Jesse playing the Play station could be heard from the kitchen, where Mia and Elly were preparing the salad. Dom was in the backyard with Vince working on the grill, and Letty was setting the table.
"Vince is looking at you again, Mia!" Elly laughed as she poured some dressing on to the salad. Mia laughed too, and looked out the window. Dom was talking to Vince while working the grill, but Vince was just staring into the window. Mia waved, and Vince looked away quickly. They burst out laughing.
"What y'all laughing at?" Jesse asked as he walked in the kitchen to grab a beer. Although tears were streaming down her face, Elly managed to choke out
"Vince and Mia."
" - Sitting in a tree K-I-S-S-I-N-G!"
Jesse finished off. Mia stopped laughing and tried to look angry at the other two.
"Elly, it is not THAT funny, and you, Jess can stop with the childish nursery rhymes."
She playfully pushed him back into the living room.
"And anyway, you can barely talk." Mia said to Elly.
"What? What did I do?" Elly replied.
"Well, it's not you exactly." She picked up some bread and a 6-pack of beer and headed towards the back door. Elly picked up the bowl of salad and followed her to the door.
"Mia, what you talkin' bout?"
"It's." she began quietly. "Leon! Jess! Food's up!" she called to the living room. Elly was getting impatient.
"Mia." Mia cut her off with a look that said 'we'll talk later'.
Everyone was sitting down at the table in the backyard. Dom had his usual place at the head of the table. Vince was on his right, followed by Elly then Letty. On Dom's left was Jesse, then Leon ten Mia. Everybody was waiting for someone to reach out and grab the food first. That was the problem at dinnertime. Nobody wanted to say grace, so they all sat on their hands; it was so much easier when they had a guest, who was unaware to the 'rule'. It was silent until Vince broke it.
"Ah hell, this is killing me, I'm hungry." He said and reached for a piece of chicken. Everyone was thankful that they could start eating. They all bowed their heads.
"Alright, to the big guy in the sky-"
"Could be a girl." Elly cut in.
"Wha?"
"God could be a woman." There was a slight pause, as Elly gave him a big innocent smile. Vince chuckled and continued.
"Ok, to the big guy or GIRL in the sky, thanks for keeping us all safe, keeping us all together, and keeping us all family. Amen."
"Amen." Everyone chimed. "So, god's a woman huh Elly? " Leon asked.
"Damn straight Leon, how do you think we keep y'all in check?" Leon just laughed in reply.
"You know, I don't think god's a woman, if she was - why did she make men bastards?" Mia stated. Letty burst out laughing, followed by Elly. Vince and Leon snorted.
"Good question, Mia. Good question." Dom said softly.
"Very poetic." Jesse said expressing with his arms. A comfortable silence fell over them as they continued to eat. The sound of a car made them all look up. It was at the end of their street, coming closer towards their house. Police sirens quickly followed behind it.
"Ohhhhh police chase.excellent." Jesse smiled. As the car neared the house, screeching tyres echoed throughout the neighbourhood, quickly followed by a very loud crunch, and what sounded like a small explosion. Everyone was stunned, thinking the same thing. 'Was that outside OUR house?' Elly suddenly jumped up.
"My car!"
She raced out to the front, everyone in tow. The sight that Elly met was not pretty. The car that was being chased had gone in the back of her car, which was parked on the side of the road. The force of the impact had made Elly's car also hit Jesse's car, parked in front of hers. Elly couldn't believe it. She had only decorated her car two days ago. It was white, but on the hood of a car was a painted baby pink angel, with praying hands. The angel was based on a picture of her mother. The police cars had pulled up, and an officer went over to the driver. He was unconscious and needed an ambulance right away. Elly walked closer to her car. Dom put a hand on her shoulder.
"You can repair it, right Dom?" she knew the answer but there was still a small bit of hope left.
"I think you know the answer to that L." Well, the hope was now completely out the window. Jesse went over to his car. His could be repaired within a few weeks, but it wasn't suitable to drive. A police officer came over to Elly.
"Is this your car Ma'am?"
"Was." She replied. The police officer took some details from her, and said that they would get in touch with the insurance company.
They had retuned to the table, but the mood was not good. Elly was holding back tears in her eyes. The money she had put into didn't really matter, yes it was very expensive, but the time, effort, pain and work that had gone into the car was priceless, just like everybody else's cars. When they had finished, Letty and Dom went upstairs; Vince went downstairs to take a shower, which left Leon and Jesse to the wrath of Mia.
"Hey! " she grabbed their shirts. "You can't run away from the Toretto sisters!"
"Well, I know that's right!" Leon laughed. Mia rolled her eyes.
"Here, take this and put it in the sink.then wash them." She pushed a stack of plates into is hands.
"Wash? Wash is not in Leon's vocabulary." Jesse said as he cleared up beer bottles.
"Shut up, dawg!" He went over and tried to kick him in the shin, but the plates weighed him down.
"Hey, bro, what's up with Elly?" he nodded his head towards Elly, who was dragging her feet into the house with the remains of the salad. Leon shrugged.
"Her car I guess."
"Go cheer her up, Leon." Jesse nudged his friend, with a grin and a wink. Leon shot him a death stare.
"Jess, man! Mia can hear you!" he hissed. Mia walked over and said,
"Oh yeah, Leon, like I don't know. Everybody who has eyes knows."
"Shit, am I that obvious?"
"No, but I heard you and Jess talking late one night - I know everything that goes on in this house!"
She laughed and went back to putting the table away. Leon quickly walked up to catch up with Elly.
"Does Dom know?" he asked turning around.
"No." Leon let out a sigh. 'Phew' he said to himself. He ran up the stairs to the kitchen to catch up with Elly.
~~**Woo! Chapter one done! Expect chapter 2 very shortly.and don't forget reviews please!
