Chapter 2: Crush?
The first week of school went by quickly for Letty. She was happy the weekend had finally arrived and she would be able to have herself some fun. Although she only knew Mia for a week they had become close and Letty was always at her house. Letty planned to meet up with Mia after her last period class, Biology. She hated this class. When was she ever going to use this stuff in her everyday life? She already knew what she wanted to do with her life. She had a passion for cars always have always will. She almost lost her mind when she found out Mr.T owned a garage and that both Dom and Vince worked there. She was hoping once she turned sixteen Mr. T would allow her to work there too.
The bell rung and Letty jumped out of her seat and headed straight to her locker. She threw her books inside and headed over to Mia's locker. " Hey Letty, you coming over to the house?", Dom called from behind her. Letty's heart skipped a beat as she turned around to look at him. " Yea..I was about to meet up with Mia so we could head over there"." Alright, go get Mia I'll be waiting for y'all in the car". Letty nodded her head and headed to Mia's locker. "Hey Mi, hurry up Dom's going to give us a ride to your house". "Dom..giving us a ride? Who would have thought he would even care about how we got home". Letty laughed as Mia grabbed her bag and the two walked to the car. Freedom was finally upon them.
Instead of getting a ride home Dom drove them straight to the garage. Mr. T needed Mia's help with some paperwork. The boys were swamped with cars. Letty sat on the couch watching as Vince struggled to find out what was wrong with the Civic he was working on. Shaking her head Letty watched as Vince walked away from the car in search of food. Letty quietly walked over to the car and went to work. "What the hell are you doing?", Vince yelled. Letty slowly rolled out from under the car with a smile on her face. " The brakes needed tightening and the struts are rusting. Their going to have to be completely replaced.", she said as she walked towards the office to find Mia. "I didn't know you knew about cars Letty", Mr. Toretto called before Vince could respond. "Yea, my dad taught me all about them when I was younger. I've always wanted to be a mechanic ." "Oh really? , Mr. Toretto hesitated, " Well we could use another mechanic in here but you would have to wait until you turn 16". Letty was filled with excitement. " My birthday is actually tomorrow", Letty said shyly. "What? Why didn't you tell me? What are you doing tomorrow?", Mia yelled running out from the office while Dom approached Letty. "Um..nothing. My parents are out of town". "What? Well you should stay the night and tomorrow we can go out to get our nails and toes done", Mia responded excitedly. " I wouldn't want to impose", Letty begun. "Nonsense you're going to stay the night you shouldn't be alone on your birthday. Besides I don't want you over there alone." Letty simply nodded her head and looked at Dom. He had managed to work his way over to her and was standing extremely close." Alright well I'm going to head home to shower.I'll come over when you guys get home"." I'll drive you". Dom surprised Lett with his offer. He had never gone out his way to say anything to her since she meet him ."Alright", she responded as they walked out of the garage and got into Dom's Mazada.
"Thanks for the ride. I could have walked". "No problem besides I have some errands to run." Letty simply nodded her head and stared out the window. She found herself sneaking glances at Dom the whole ride. She couldn't explain it but she was drawn in by him. In the time they have been around each other she found herself staring at his muscles through his shirts, admiring his smile, his scent. The other day she caught herself staring at Dom while he worked on his car without a shirt.
She was relieved when they pulled up in the Toretto's driveway."Thanks again for the ride". She ran to her house and went straight up her bedroom. Today was a long day for her and working on the car in the garage made her break a sweat. She couldn't be around Dom smelling with her hair stuck to the back of her neck. Wait what? Why was she worried about how she looked around Dom? Because you like him she thought. Shaking her head she peeled her clothes from her body and went into her private bathroom to shower. She washed her hair with her coconut shampoo then got out the shower to get ready. She took her time lotioning up before she began picking out her outfits for the weekend. She packed several pairs of short shorts and a couple t-shirts. She then pulled on a pair of dark green shorts and a black spaghetti strap shirt with a pair of silver sandals. After she was dressed she stared at herself in the mirror. She had to admit she was kind of hot. Her breast weren't huge but she wasn't exactly an A cup. Her boobs were a perfect C cup and she had a nice little butt for her side. It was nothing compared to most of the girls Dom huge around but she was happy with herself. She brushed her hair back and into a messy bun.
Letty was never concerned about what guys thought of her and she definitely never made an effort to. The fact that she considered Dom when she was packing was a sign that for the first time in her life Leticia Ortiz had a crush on a boy.
