Chapter 1- No Bonnie

Dom's POV

Dominic Toretto sipped an ice cold corona as he looked out over the ocean as the sun sunk in the sky. He had found sanctuary in Tenerife, which was the largest island in the Canary's. Its location made it a perfect place to hide from the law.

Garachico was a small town on the north shore with charming character and a rustic beauty of white rendered houses and copper coloured roofs. There was always some form of adventure that could be found from the open highways to the sheltered rocky coves.

It was a place Letty would have loved. Dom felt a pang in his chest as he remembered his lover. He should be mumbling sweet nothings teasingly in her ear. Watching as she fixed his car, Letty was the only person he trusted enough to repair his beloved charger.

Dom smiled slightly but his face fell as he was quick to remember that it was Elena who was currently asleep, naked in his bed.

However he was snapped from his thoughts by a familiar rough voice; "so this is what a 100 million buys you, huh." Whipping his head around Dom frowned slightly. "It wasn't that hard to find you Toretto," states Hobbs.

Smirking Dom merely replies, "I wasn't hiding." Nodding Hobbs launched into his request; "last week a team of highly co-ordinated drivers took down an entire military convoy.

"You know Rio was my last job," smiled Dom as he sipped his corona.

"Oh, I know you didn't do it," replied Hobbs. "But you're gonna help me take down the team who did."

Dom frowned as he questioned the agents' intentions. "Yeah and why is that Hobbs?"

"I've been chasing this crew across 12 countries. This was taken a week ago." Countered Hobbs as he handed Dom a worn police folder.

Flicking open the folder Dom searched for anything of interest but his heart nearly stopped as he saw the picture of Letty. A Letty who was alive and well, not buried six feet under. "It's impossible," he murmured.

Looking at the picture Dom was captivated, she had become more beautiful if that was even possible. Her head hung slightly as her long dark brown curls trailed down her back. But Dom was able to spot the differences; her eyes were dull, their spark diminished and she looked thinner.

As Dom looked Hobbs in the eye he finally understood the power of such a request, the magnitude. "I can't guarantee anything; I'll get them to London. But I ain't gonna force them to risk their loves if they don't want to." Pausing Dom inched closer, "you go back on your word, you jeopardise my team and there won't be a single place on this Earth you can hide."

Turning back on his heel Dom walked back inside, "let yourself out. I have shit to do." His voice steel as he gripped the folder.

Gripping the doorframe to his bedroom, he sat in the old wicker chair faced the window. His mind racing with questions; how did she survive? But Dom flinched slightly as a small pair of hands slide over his shoulders; "Babe what's wrong? Who was that outside?" said Elena softly.

"That was Hobbs," he squeezed her hand in a reassuring manner; "he wants the team to help catch another crew in Europe. He showed me a picture of Letty," Dom replied as he motioned to the folder.

Elena gasped as she saw Dom's former lover, dropping the photo she kneeled in front of him. "Dom, you need to go to her, alright, you go and find her. But when you find her you do not let her go. And whatever happens next everything will work out for the best." Glancing up at him, Elena smiled weakly.

"Its time I go back to Rio, I'll check on Rosa and Nico you just worry about her, Dom, ok. Cause if I had the chance to have my Enrique back, I would take it in a heartbeat." Whispered Elena as she grabbed his hands forcing him to stand, kissing him lightly she turned on her heels to pack her bag.

However she hesitated and turned back; "you know one day I'd love to meet her," murmured Elena.

At this Dom smirked, "I'm sure it would be an event for the ages. I'll see you around Elena." Replied Dom as he packed a bag and rushed to his car, booking a first class ticket to Goa, India.

As Dom stepped from the plane he raced out of the airport and hailed the closest cab. In the hours that had passed since he boarded the plane he became a nervous wreck. How and why? Were the questions that kept flying though his mind.

Paying the cab driver Dom stepped onto the pavement as he as he looked at the new beach house Brian and Mia now owned. It was very different from the cute little bungalow; looking over he could see Brian and Mia sitting on the grass with baby Jessica. The overhanging trees and the cream coloured walls wrapped in ivy created the perfect little sanctuary from the outside world.

Looking over Mia let out a huge smile as she stood up to hug her brother as he came closer. "Dom what's wrong? Did something happen we weren't expecting you until next week?" questioned Mia worriedly as they all sat down on the grass.

Brian fussed over Jessica as she whimpered in his arms. Mia rubbed her hand gently through her chocolate hair trying to calm the baby. It had been a while since Dom had seen Jessica, in the past couple of months since he had seen her she had grown a great deal.

"Man come on, it must be important for you to fly halfway around the world," states Brian still holding Jess as he wrapped an arm around Mia, squeezing her gently. Dom hesitated slightly before he began.

"Hobbs showed up at my place in the islands," Dom ignored the shocked looks on their faces as he continued, in somewhat of a trance. "He's been tracking this crew all across Europe and he want the teams, help to bring them down." Dom hesitated before he sighed, handing over the police file to Mia and Brian. "But that wasn't what got my attention.

He heard the collective gasps as he stared out towards the ocean. Dom's voice breaking as he spoke, "please just tell me that you didn't know."

Mia reached out and grasped his hand as Brian replied, "Dom, I didn't know I swear. I honestly thought she was dead. I was in the dark just like you."

And in that second Dom's mind raced back to the last time he saw Letty.

Her hands were wrapped around his neck pulling him closer, deepening the kiss. Almost as if begging him not to leave. Their fight on the beach still echoed in the air between them; 'I don't want you around when they catch up with me.'

'Ride or die. Remember? Dom, how long have we been doing this? And now all of a sudden out of nowhere it's too dangerous? Come on. We'll figure it out, we always do.'

Slamming her body roughly against the wall, he felt the familiar fire that burned between them. But Letty pushed right back before she ripped his white wife beater down the centre, letting it fall to the floor. Letty running her hand up his abs as he backed her slowly against the bed.

As his fingers unbuttoned her shirt and his lips trailed down her skin, Letty could feel the electricity flow through her skin. She arched her back towards him as she murmured in Dom's ear; 'Make love to me like it's my last day on this Earth.' And they gave into each other for this one night, neither knowing what tomorrow would hold.

As Letty slept, Dom learnt over to wipe her cheeks of the fallen tears and kissed her lips. Leaving both their payouts from the heist and his silver cross; he gathered his bag to leave. Dom whispered his apologies before turning around to leave because he knew that if he looked back he wouldn't be able to leave.

It was Mia's soft voice that interrupted Dom from his thoughts, "So when do we leave?" Dom frowned at Mia's words, "Mia this guy is bad news and this shit isn't gonna be pretty. It'll be safer for you to be here with Jess."

Mia looked up, furious at his words; "No, I'll be safer being surrounded with family. I can do the same stuff as I did in Rio. Dom, I need to see her. Besides I'm sure she'd rather see my face compared to yours. We all know how Letty holds grudges. Do you really think she'll jump into your arms and pretend the past two years never happened? I knew what she was like after you left her on that goddamn beach," retorted Mia pointedly trying not to disturb Jess.

Ignoring Mia, Dom looked at Brian searching for some sense of reason; "Brian come on."

Looking at Mia he simply replied; "Nah man, she's capable of looking after herself and I'd feel better having her right by my side."

Shaking his head in frustration Dom grumbled, "fine, we leave tomorrow. I'll ring everybody and book the plane."
