Thanks for the lovely reviews, guys! Much love to you all!

Enjoy! X


Leon Epps sighed into the garage he was working on. He could hear Vince Schulze on the phone, trying to remain calm while Jesse Lomas was trying to work out the books.

A strangled yell of frustration came soon afterwards and Vince stepped out, looking like a grizzly bear hunting for its prey. 'Goddamn customers! Requesting upgrades when the car is finished! We went this instead of that, we want this, not that! Sometimes I could wring Dom's neck for leaving us!' Vince disappeared outside to calm down, and Jesse poked his head round the door.

'Jesse, get out here and help me with this!' Leon demanded.

'I've got all this to do in here-'

'Jesse! Just fucking help me out mam! These cars have to be finished by tomorrow and we're nowhere finished on them!' Leon shouted hotly.

Jesse raised his eyebrow at his tone. 'Ive already had Vince exploding with anger in the office, I'm not putting up with your shit too! I keep telling you we should hire someone!'

'No! You know what we should do! Call the boss and get him back!' Vince said, reappearing in the doorway.

'Vince, he said he'd never come back here, so its pointless even trying!' Jesse shouted from the office, that he ahd returned to.

'It's been six years!'

'So?' Leon asked, folding his arms. 'If he wanted to come back, V... he would have done it years ago!'

Vince looked angry for a few seconds before he sighed and nodded. 'I know... it's just, I always thought he come back, at least to see how we were doing or to say hi...'

'We go out there every year to see them-'

'But it's not the same, Leon! We go out there, they don't come here!' Vince shot at him.

'Would you come back here? If you were Dom's shoes? He lost his parents and his sister-'

'He didn't technically loose Mia, did he? That was her own doing, pushing him away, pushing us away... breaking us all up' Vince spat harshfully.

'Even though you're right, you're lucky Dom wasn't here to punch you for that' Leon told him, a ghost of a smile on his lips as Vince agreed with a chuckle, his earlier anger seemingly disappearing.

'Letty would've beaten him to it' Vince laughed, as he made his way back to the office, where Jesse was.

'OI! I still need help out here, guys!' Leon shouted, his tone showing the annoyance he felt...


Dom, Letty and Ruben were relaxing on the beach. Ruben was trying to build a sandcastle, while Dom and Letty watched with smiles.

Ruben pouted, for what seemed like the hundredth time in a minute, as his sandcastle fell down.

'Maybe try it with a bit of water from the sea' Dom suggested, chuckling slightly. Ruben looked at him before grabbing his bucket and running for the sea.

'Be careful!' Letty shouted, before pressing a kiss to Dom's chest. She stared up at him for a few minutes before speaking. 'What do you want this time?' She asked, feeling his fingers tracing her stomach lightly.

'A girl, but I'll be happy with either as long he or she is healthy' Dom answered, pressing a kiss to her head.

'What are we going to do about the garage? It's been you, me and Tej since we first opened up the garage' Letty said.

'Well, Tej says he knows someone who good with cars, someone called Brian O'Connor, apparently they have a mutual friend in a guy called Roman Pearce. Anyway, this Brian guy is supposed to be good with cars... but we'll see...'

'Three guys running a garage... god help me...' Letty said dramatically, making Dom laugh.

'The second you come back from maternity leave, it'll be like you never left!'

'You're not driving me out that early, Dom! You know as well as I do that I'll be in the garage until I'm at least seven months gone...'

'Bet I could persuade you...' his voice suddenly turned husky and Letty gasped, slightly.

'No way... not out here' Letty protested, as Dom flipped them over gently and smiled down at her wolfishly.

'So there is a place...' Dom stroked a piece of hair away from her face, pressing a light kiss to her lips, as she swatted his chest lightly.

'Down, papi!' She laughed, gently pushing him back to the sand.

Just as Dom was about to speak, the phone rang inside and grabbed Letty's attention. She got to her feet and headed inside, getting rid of the sand on her feet as she did.

'Hello?' She answered, wincing at the dry sand as she cleaned her feet with a towel.

'...'

'Hello?' Letty repeated, her voice slightly firmer that time.

'...'

'I know someone is there, I can hear breathing'

'... Letty?'

At the sound of her name, on the other end, Letty's head snapped up in shock...


'Papi?' Ruben asked, as he sat next to his dad. 'When will the baby come?' He continued, looking at Dom curiously.

'Not yet for a bit, in about seven months'

Ruben gasped. 'Seven months? That's a long time...'

Dom chuckled. 'Yeah it is, but the wait will be worth it' he said, putting his arm around his son shoulder.

'I want a little sister!' Ruben annouced, surprising Dom.

'Yeah? I thought you'd want a brother'

'No, a little sister, so I can teach her stuff and look after her like you look after mami'

Dom smiled at that little confession. 'Well if you do get a sister, she's going to be the best looked after sister in the Dominican' he told Ruben, kissing his head lightly, as his thoughts turned to Mia.

She would have been twenty three today, and there was no doubt they would have all celebrated it together, with a BBQ, before going out for the night.

'Mami?' Ruben said loudly, as he got to his feet and rushed into the house to find Letty bend over the sink. 'MAMI!' He shouted, the shout gaining Dom's attention, as he sprinted into house.

'Get a bottle of water' Dom told Ruben, gently, as he took hold of Letty's hair that she had gripped behind her back.

'Sorry...' She murmured, the fast jets of water rinsing the sink.

'Shh... it's okay!' Dom reassured before stroking her back, incase she needed to throw up some more. Letty smiled as she accepted the bottle of water from Ruben and rinsed her mouth out a few times, before turning the tap off.

'Are you okay, Mami?' He asked, confused to what was going on.

Letty smiled as best as she could and nodded. 'Yeah, I'm okay, sweetie. Something just didn't agree with me' she answered weakly.

'Come on, come and sit down...' Dom said, gently leading her to the sofa and sitting down on her left, while Ruben occupied the right.

'Do you want a hug, Mami?' Ruben asked, staring her.

Letty smiled. 'That'd be nice' She told him, wrapping her arms round his shoulders and pulling him to her gently.

'Hello, baby... I'm your big brother...' The sound of their son talking to Letty's stomach brought smiles to their faces...


'Who was on the phone earlier?' Dom asked, later that night as they laid on the sofa together, watching TV.

Letty tensed slightly, before relaxing. 'Just a wrong number' She answered, dismissing it with a wave of her hand.

'Again? Letty, they've been wrong numbers for about two weeks, more in fact-'

'So, it can happen!' Letty suddenly fired at him, anger in her tone.

Dom raised his eyebrow at her. 'Alright, I was just saying...' he said, holding his hands up in surrender.

'Well... it can' She said, before setting her tea down on the coffee table and turning to straddle him, sitting on the tops of his thighs. 'You're so much comfier' She whispered, her eyes darkening, as leaned closer to Dom.

A sensual smile crossed Dom's lips as he gripped her waist tightly but gently. 'Think you can be quiet tonight?' he whispered, his eyes sweeping her body as he pulled her closer on his lap.

'Nope...' She whispered, before connecting their lips in a passionate kiss. Dom responded hotly, one arm gripping her waist and the other hand tangling in her long raven locks.

He was concentrating on her lips, as their tounges entwined, so he wasn't paying much attention to her wondering hands, until he heard material ripping in half with a swift tear.

He pulled back to find Letty biting her lip, the hint of a smile trapped between her teeth. 'Eager, baby?' He whispered with a smile, before he almost caught her off guard as he got to his feet, his ripped tank top floating to the floor as he stepped towards their bedroom...


In the back alleyway of an L.A nightclub, Vince lit up a cigarette and took a drag, before puffing the smoke back out in different shapes.

'Cool shapes.' A voice said besides him, holding out a bony hand. 'Can I have a drag?'

Vince continued staring straight ahead. 'Nope' he answered.

The blonde, pixie haired girl sighed. 'Why not?'

'Because I don't share with drug addicts'

'That's not what I've heard about you... I heard you were quite the sharer back in the day...' The blonde girl said, leaning against the wall next to him.

Vince sighed. 'And what else do you know about me?' Vince asked, turning to face the girl.

'A lot of things, Vince Schulze' said the girl, causing Vince to frown.

'How do you know my name?' He asked, his eye peering closely at the blonde, who he had never met before.

The blonde smiled at him, the hood of the zip up top she was wearing hiding most of her face. She quickly reached over and plucked the cigarette from his hand before taking a long drag and blowing it out.

She smiled up at him. 'Thanks' She said, before she turned and headed back down the alleyway, looping arms with another skinny, blonde girl as they walked away, the other girl shivering in warm autumn air...
