I ONLY OWN TESS. SHORT START I KNOW.
Dom rolled his shoulders as the gate rolled open. Mia and the gang were already waiting for him. Mia slid into the passenger seat and Dom climbed in and they all took off with Dom in the lead. "So where's Tess? I didn't see her out there." Dom said. Mia sighed. " She stopped coming around two months after you went in. Then she left for a year. She's changed Dom. You'll see what I mean tonight." Dom's heart sank. He knew why she had stopped coming around, but he had no idea why she had left the state.
Tess stretched like a cat. She climbed into the shower and got ready for the races. Spiked six inch boots, skinny jeans and a low cut halter top that showed off the tattoo right over her heart. She fixed her hair into loose curls that went halfway down her back and slipped in her navel ring. She didn't bother with makeup. She never did anymore.
RACE NIGHT
Everyone was there by the time Dom and his crew pulled up. There were several cars he didn't recognize. He was making his way over to Hector when he heard it. He would know her laugh anywhere. He stopped dead in his tracks and turned towards it. Tess was sitting on a car and Mia was right. She had changed. Her hair was flaming red and she had at least two tattoos that he could see and two piercings. One in her navel and one in her tongue. Before he even realized it he was standing in front of her.
Tess felt her heart drop to her knees when she turned and Dom was standing there. She lifted her hand and shoved her hair off her shoulder and he fully saw both of her tattoos. The one over her heart said DTJ 9-13-11 and the one on her wrist said amor me mata. Dom spoke Spanish. He knew what that meant. Before either of them could react a large man walked up and wrapped his arms around Tess and lifted her off the car. She let out a shriek and another woman slapped the man on the head. By now Vince had walked over to see what was taking Dom so long.
As soon as Vince saw Tess and the look on Dom's face he started dragging Dom away. Dom's whole face turned red when he heard the sound of the guy slapping Tess's ass. It took Vince, Leon and Hector to drag Dom away. The races ended and of course the after party was held at Dom's. The party was well under way when she came in with her crew. The guy that lifted her off the car had his arm thrown over the shoulder of the woman that slapped him over the head. Letty was the first one to see her. She marched over to Tess and grabbed her arm and tried to drag her out of the house.
Tess grabbed Letty's arm and twisted it behind her back and once they passed the stairs Tess kicked her in the ass and Letty landed at Leon's feet. Leon helped her up and Letty went to lunge at Tess and the woman that came with her to the party stood next to her. Leon grabbed Letty around the waist and dragged her into the kitchen.
The party goers could feel the tension and started leaving. Tess sat down in an armchair with the man and the woman behind her. Mia turned off the music and Letty and Leon came back into the living room and they all sat down. Tess crossed her legs and gave Letty a death glare. "You think you would have learned your lesson from the first time." Letty glared at her. "What the fuck are you even doing here? You walked out on all of us Two years ago after Dom went in." The man behind Tess snorted. Tess sighed. " Rome. If you can't do this you can leave. " Tess said looking over her shoulder. He shook his head. Tess turned back to Letty. " Dom never told you did he?" She said as she sat back. Letty looked at Dom. "What is she talking about? What didn't you tell us?" Letty asked. "Oh I'll tell you. I'll tell you everything. About two months after Dom went in I went to see him. I had some news to share with him. Some very important news. So I get inside and finally make my way past the metal detectors to the guards. I give them Dom's name and mine and the tell me that I'm not on his list of approved visitors. Well I figure it must be some mistake so I ask them to check again. Same result. So I'm standing there in shock and I start getting these horrible pains in my stomach. The fact that he refused to see caused me to have a miscarriage right in the middle of a prison."
Tess stood up and walked out of the house with Rome and Blake following her. She thought she was strong enough to tell them everything in one night. She was wrong. She climbed in her car and peeled out, leaving Rome and Blake behind.
