With Dom at my side, we escape the claws of death yet again. I look over at him with a huge grin on my face, and I can see he's holding back a laugh. "What?" I ask still grinning, for some crazy reason I just can't pull it from my face no matter how hard I try.
"You're crazy you know that?" He says smiling as he shacks his head.
"Oh look who's talking." I smirk. "Last I checked I wasn't the one driving."
"No but you enjoyed it." He counters.
"And you didn't?" I raise a brow at him mockingly. I see him get that guilty look on his face as he shrugs. "Yeah, you did." I say answering the question for him. "You know doing these jobs with you makes me feel alive. Even though I know there's a chance that one day we might not walk away.." I pause to look over at Dom for a few seconds before continuing. ".. But I don't care." I see him smirk out of the corner of my eye.
"Well then I guess it's a good thing we survived. At least now we have another day to raise more hell." He says with a grin as big as Texas. "Yeah, get some!" I yell as I thrust my fist out the rolled down window proclaiming our victory as well as letting the whole world know that we're ready for anything thing they have to throw at us. I feel the wind whip my hair around front seat just before Dom grabs me and pulls me to him. "That's my girl." He says with a smile, just before laying a kiss on my lips.
After about an hour later, we meet up with Han and the boys at the beach to sell the the gasoline we just stole. I get out of the car and close the door with my hip, as I slowly scan the beach to see how many trailers we got away with, but Dom to interrupt my thoughts. "Letty, I'm going to go check in with the guys, you coming?"
"Nah. I'm going to hang back but you go a head I'll catch up with you in a few."
"Cop watch?" He asks with a smirk knowing that's what I always do after street races or jobs like this one.
"Yeah." I smile.
With that I watch Dom turn his back and start walking over to the guys well I make my way over to the front of the car. I push myself up on the hood and sit down. I see Dom look back at me and nod at the group of guys as an offer for me to join him but I shake my head no. I see a smirk cross his lips as he shakes his head before I train my eyes on the road.
After a little while I hear the sound of a woman's sobs. I turn my attention from the road and slowly scan the beach again, this time I see a woman standing next to one of the tankers pleading with the new guy, Mark. My mind switches to protective mode just before I push myself off the hood of the car and swiftly walk over to them. I get over there just in time to see Mark grab the woman by the shoulders and giving her a hard shove as she's trying to walk away. I see her fall forward into the sand, I feel my hands ball into fists as I come up behind him. "Hey." I say getting his attention enough for him to look over his shoulder at me, giving me the perfect shot. I pull my arm back and punch him harder then I've ever punched anyone before, and in return I get the satisfaction of watching him topple over clinching his jaw in pain. "Next time it will be Dom." I threaten but it doesn't seem to faze him. "Why, you little bit-" he starts but I cut him off with a right hook to the face. I see him stumble back a few steps but I only have enough time to see that the woman was still laying on the sandy beach just before I feel my body slammed into the tanker behind me. Befor I can even think I feel Marks fist make contact with my side and I groan in pain well my mind screams out that I need to fight. Running off pure instinct I jab my elbow into the crook of his neck, I feel him drop to his knees and my feet hit the sand only for them to be swept out from underneath me. I fall backwards, landing hard but before I can pick myself up fully Mark kicks me in the stomach and roll over on my back. Gasping, I glare up at him and kick the back of his legs causing him to fall forward. I quickly get up seeing my chance to get a few feet between us but he grabs my hair and pulls me to him. "Go a head call him." He dares. "Go a head call Dom. He won't help you. You'll see."
"I don't need his help!" I growl and give him the look of determination as bring my heavy steeled toe boot down on his foot. He jumps and let's go of my hair just long enough that I can get away but only having enough time to think, 'Wow, that was such a girly move. You can do better then that, Letty.' I see Mark throw a punch at me out of the corn of my eye and I slip it just in time. Then I grab his wrist and throw him over my shoulder. He lands hard with a loud thud and lays there on the ground stunned. "Now stay the hell out of my way!" I yell at him then look to find Dom standing with a group of the guys watching me. They must have just realize that I had been in a fight because I see Dom looking from both me and Mark in an effort to piece together what had just gone down. I give Dom a bit of a dirty look then limp/walk over to the woman who was now up off the ground and ready to make a run for it.
"Hey, wait. Are you okey?" I ask softly trying not to scare her.
