Chapter 1: Moving on
There are too many people here….girls...there are too many girls here.
The music was too loud, Letty felt like her brain was going to explode. Maybe she had had one too many drinks, or maybe it was the hit she had taken that was being passed around….well hits if she was being honest. She wasn't in the mood to party. But tonight was a race night, it's not like she really had a choice. She was obligated (for lack of a better emotion) to stay in this house that she loved so much and watch as skanks surrounded Dom. If she left now it would seem suspicious, especially since Dom and the majority of the team had won their races. Including her, Letty was sitting pretty on about 10 grand tonight and a new car. Whatever, he's not actually that attractive….I don't get what they see in him, his personality sucks, and he's bald, and I bet he has a small penis! She said to herself. Feeling slightly better she sighed and went into the kitchen where she found Mia, Dom's younger sister. Being the goody goody she was and under the legal age , Mia was refraining from partaking in some of the more….improper fun being had at the house that night. "Let whats up?" She received no answer but an exaggerated sigh. "I think I'm gonna head out Mi, I'm not really feeling it tonight." Leon decided that now was the perfect time to saunter up to the two ladies. "What let? Menstruating already….your period makes you such a bitch….well more than you already are" He winked. Letty could barely control the eye roll and the death glare she wanted to give him. She wasn't on her period...butttttt it was a good excuse to use. "Fuck off Leon—whatever Im outta here. By Mi. Tell the guys I'll catch them tomorrow or something." She kissed the younger girl on her cheek, and decked Leon on the arm before slipping out the back door. What is wrong with me?! It's like I cant do ANYTHING without thinking about him! Dominic Toretto had been invading Letty's thoughts a lot more frequently than he used to. Sure, she had the obligatory crush on the sexy man back when she was 14. He was older, fit, attractive, popular, junior and she was the awkward flat chest-ed tom boy freshman that none of the other girls wanted to hang with. Naturally she was drawn to him. He was just…..his aura was so overpowering he drew people to him. Letty was no exception. But after 7 years she thought she had gotten this shit under control. Letty shook her head one more time. I need to get him out of my head and out of my system. She hopped into her Jensen Interceptor and started the engine. "Mmmmmm," she grinned. This car was her everything, her first and favorite. She had won a number of cars over the years in her street racing career. In fact she had even earned herself something of the title 'Queen of the Streets' but none of her wins compared to this car. She invest a huge chunk of her earnings into making this car her everything. She whipped the car out the driveway and headed to the one thing that could help clear her mind. Johnny.
Letty and Johnny Tran had had this off and on thing going on the down low for a few months now. He was currently scratching an itch that she needed to be scratched. And as long as he and Dom stayed away from each other no one would ever find out. Because if they did Dom would go MENTAL! That whole over protective, your part of my family bullshit he liked to sling her way. Psh. What a twat. Letty didn't even remember driving there. It all seemed in a haze. Parking a block away from his apartment she locked the car, and sauntered up to his doorway. Deep breath. I shouldn't be here she mused but she had already pushed the doorbell. Scuffles were heard on the other side. Turn around Letty….go home. She had an apartment on the other side of town that she rented out when she needed her own space. Space away from the testosterone overdose she got at the Toretto crib. Too late… the door opened. Letty stepped inside.
The party was finally winding down. Most people had gone home. Mia was slinking around the house picking up garbage where she could whispering awake those who had passed out or were sleeping and kicking them out. This was a good party though. A total rage-er. Dom was proud. There were a lot of people who had a good, no great time. The music was on point, the alcohol was freely flowing and the girls were positively sinful. Son sinful in fact that he was planning on indulging in some of the delicacy himself. In his drunken stupor he grazed the room. He was aware that Leon has ditched out with some chick a few hours ago. Jesse was asleep on the couch. He watched as Vince put his arm around the shoulder of a slutty brunette and led her toward the stairs. "Hey Mi, where's Letty?" I haven't seen her for a while… "Oh she left a while back, she uhm…wasn't feeling well. Period or something…" Mia scurried off not making eye contact continuing to collect trash. She knew. Of course she knew. She was Letty's first friend in this neighborhood and that meant that she had gained a sisterly trust with the other girl. Mia knew everything… Letty loved Dom. And if Dom didn't get his act together, she was going to move on. Not that Dom would care, but Letty has been trying to get over Dom for years.
"It's just strange she didn't say anything to me before she left. Did she say where she was going to go, or if she was gonna be back tomorrow?" Dom just wouldn't let it go. Irritated Mia turned around to snap at him when two girls in the most revealing outfits she had ever seen came out of the bathroom. One was tall…almost model-esque but falling just short. She has an upturned nose and those sexy fuck me eyes that boys seem to like these days. Her barely there dress was deep purple, and barely cover her goodies. "Dom! I thought it was my night?" "No your obviously drunk of your ass because he clearly is going to be with me tonight," Snarled the second girl. It seems with dome if the first one had dark hair the second one had to be a blonde. Smaller than the first girl but still willowy, she was wearing silver gray. So much of her breasts were on display Mia wondered what the point of the dress bodice was in the first place. With a cheeky grin Dom turned towards the girls. "What if you girls compromise, and share me? What if all three of us spend the night hmm? Would that be ok?" The girls looked at each other for a moment, and then the taller one sighed. "Well, Im sure you'll be worth it" she said while looking at the other girl. "Oh trust me," Dom licked his bottom lip and rubbed his palms together "….it will be" he growled. Mia just rolled her eyes as she watched the trio drunkenly wobble up the stairs. She pulled out her phone and shot Letty a quick text Dom was asking about you, I hope your "period cramps" aren't too bad. Take your time feeling better. See you.
What the fuck am I doing?! Letty rolled over. 5am. Her head drifted to the side on top of a down pillow. Laid out next to her was the bare chested Johnny Tran. God was he good in bed. He scratched her itch pretty damn well if she said so herself. But she wasn't about to get intimate with him. This was just about sex. She knew it. He knew it. It is what it is. As gracefully as she could she slinked out of the bed and onto her hands and knees on the floor, desperately searching for her underwear. "Of course he had to have thrown them last night", she huffed. With her black sports bra and similar boy shorts on she collected her remaining attire and tip toed to the door, pulling her dark wash jeans on as she closed the bedroom door behind her. She let out another sigh, and relaxed against the door. She brought her palm up and smacked herself on the forehead. So stupid. I need to get home. She tossed on her solid black t-shirt and slipped on her boots right in front of the front door, before gliding out into the night to walk toward her car.
She slid into the driver's seat, hands on the steering wheel. She quickly turned around and reached into the duffle bag in the back seat and pulled out her cell phone. One message… from Mia. That was comforting. She knew Mia would cover for her. But she wouldn't have too. Tomorrow Letty was going to come clean, she was going to tell Dom about Tran and move on with her life. There was no need to be so meek about her feelings. Psh she is an independent, bad, ass kicking girl , and didn't need a man –Dom in particular to make her happy! She was going to tell him how she felt, and that she wanted to be with him and if he said yes than he said yes and if no she would get over it. Feeling a sense of resolve she put her car in gear before heading back to the Toretto house.
