New Mexico, October

Braga Hotel

Dom lay on the bed in a sleazy hotel room in New Mexico, his head rested on his hand as he lay awake watching Elena with a small thoughtful frown. She fascinated him and he adored that aspect of her, she wasn't a typical woman, she was intelligent and beautiful.

There was just one negative to this whole whirlwind relationship, he didn't love her yet, loving her as a friend was easy but trying to feel the cupid's effect was a difficult task. Dom didn't want to hurt her, he believed he could eventually fall head over heels for her, it would just take time.

Sighing deeply, he leaned forward and kissed the side of her neck gently; pushing her hair out of her face he admired her peaceful expression as she was in deep sleep. Dom smiled softly before pulling the thin white covers off of himself, his bare body grew goose pimples from the sudden change of temperature, sitting up in the bed he rubbed his hands over his face. There was the sound of Spanish music coming from outside, people were still dancing in the streets and singing, a local festival was taking place, he loved the sound of voices, it made him feel secure.

Silence was horrible; it meant that something wasn't right. Taking in a deep breath, he stood to his feet and walked towards the window, peering out at the young couples dancing and embracing, it was a nice sight. He let his arms dangle through the open window as he looked around the beautiful landscape, thoughts ran through his head about several things. He wondered when Mia would have her baby, if she was going to be okay; it made him nervous not knowing how she was doing every couple of days or so.

He couldn't carry a phone around with him, Dom knew that agent Luke Hobbs would be trying to track him down at any chance he got, a phone would lead the bastard right to Elena and himself. Turning to look at her, Dom knew he couldn't risk for her to get hurt, he would never forgive himself if she would get injured. A smile pried at his lips at the thought of being one of the most wanted convicts in the states, it made him feel good that the FBI were scratching their heads wondering where he was and what he was doing.

Dom loved leading them on dead end trails, it was only a matter of time before they gave up on the search for a while, one agent in particular would never give up on him though, Hobbs was a brutal prick at finding criminals. He would make sure that the FBI agent would never find him, the only way he would be able to find Dom was if Dom wanted to be found. It was funny to Dom that Hobbs wanted to track him down so bad when he let him go back in Rio; it was his own mistake for letting him get away with a head start.

He looked up into the sky that was a mixture of light and dark blues, the stars were bright and more prominent in New Mexico, he actually thought whether or not Letty would be up there looking down on him. He gulped deeply; the guilt that filled him whenever he thought about his ex-girlfriend was devastating. Dom knew that it was his fault she was gone, if he hadn't left her alone back in the Dominican Republic then she would still be alive by his side today. It was funny how grief springs up at random moments when people think quietly to themselves, Dom still hadn't gotten over the traumatic loss and the anger that fuelled him to keep going was incredible. It was hard for him, still, to accept her death, it was a difficult thing to overcome and his heart raced whenever he thought about her.

"I miss you, babe…" he whispered quietly to himself as he looked up to the sky while taking the cross that was around his neck and kissing it gently before turning around to look at Elena, he knew this was not fair on her. He really needed to make a drastic change if he wanted to succeed in this relationship with Elena, he needed to let Letty go, she wasn't coming back so he had to stop convincing himself otherwise.

Huffing, Dom turned his attention away from Elena and back to the sky, before pulling the cross away from his neck, clutching it within his grasp tightly.

"Goodbye, Letty," he muttered before kissing the cross a final time, then with force, he threw the cross through the open window and watched as it disappeared over a canopy of thick trees.

He felt as if a weight had been lifted from his shoulders, it was a sad moment for him to finally let Letty go but it was a step closer to having the perfect relationship with Elena, something we wanted more than anything. He stood staring at the trees for a few moments, watching the leaves sway with a gentle warm breeze before turning around and walking back to the bed. He climbed in and wrapped his arms around his new love, embracing her and pulling her body into his, she moved slightly and turned her head to face him.

Opening her eyes, she frowned slightly wondering what was wrong,

"You okay, babe?" she asked quietly as she wrapped her arm around his neck, burying her face into his chest while taking in his scent.

Dom smiled down at her, leaning in and kissing the top of her head gently,

"Everything is amazing, baby, just amazing…" he whispered into her ear as he lay his head down on the pillow, watching her fall asleep in his arms.

FBI Headquarters

Agent Monica Fuentes' Office

As her high heels began to click against the marble floors in the halls of the FBI building, Monica Fuentes headed towards her individual office which was situated in a private part of the headquarters giving her the important time she needed to talk with Brian O'Conner. Looking around carefully, she searched for any spies that could want to listen into her conversations, she despised dirty agents and hated when they pulled stunts like the one with Leticia Ortiz.

It was incredibly annoying for her to clean up this mess, she wondered who would have done this, but she couldn't think of any names just yet. Unlocking the tainted glass door with her name printed across it, she turned to look around her before entering and closing the door behind her. This was the time to be as discreet as possible and being given orders by Hobbs to keep this hidden from everybody else was going to be a hard task to accomplish. Sighing to herself quietly, she headed towards her desk where her computer was placed.

Sitting down in the swirly chair, she tried to relax herself before removing Brian O'Conner's number from her shirt pocket. Grabbing her office phone she typed in his number and held the phone to her ear, as the line began to ring her office door opened. She froze, pulling the phone from her ear she placed it back down on the hook quickly before holding her hands together. There were a commotion of voices outside her office; this had to be one of the most annoying times for someone to barge into the room without knocking,

"Hello?" she called out annoyingly as a small balding man walked in with a grin and a load of paperwork in his hands.

He smiled at Agent Fuentes and she put on half a smile just to be polite,

"What's up, Monica?" the small man asked,

Monica sighed,

"Nothing much, Derek, just trying to get on with work without people barging into my goddamn office without the manners to even knock…" she cocked an eyebrow as she stared the little guy down with her intimidating brown eyes.

Derek let out a nervous chuckle before laying the paperwork down,

"Sorry, I'll keep that in mind next time…" he apologized as he backed off and out of the room,

She sighed with her fingers pressed against her temples,

"Close the door behind you!"

Derek nodded and gently closed the door before disappearing out of sight.

"Idiot…" she sighed as she pushed the paperwork aside and picked the phone up again, maybe now she would get some privacy to actually call Brian O'Conner and inform him that his little friend, Leticia Ortiz was still alive. How she was going to do this with all these idiotic agents running around was beyond her, but she had to try.

"Here we go," she rolled her eyes and dialled his number in waiting for a reply,

"Hello, who is this?"

Monica smiled,

"Brian O'Conner?" she asked curiously,

There was a silence for a few moments.

"Yes, who is this?" he demanded to know,

Agent Fuentes looked at her fingernails before giving a reply,

"This is FBI agent, Monica Fuentes, you're probably acquainted with my partner Lukas Hobbs, hello Brian O'Conner, we have seriously important issues to discuss that may be of great interest to you…" she began with a large smile.
