Chapter 4
One month later, wedding day...
"Do you ever think you'll do this one day? Get married?" Mia asked Letty as the two were in Mia's room, getting ready.
"I don't know. Maybe if I find the right person. To be honest, I don't care if I marry someone. I don't need to have that kind of relationship with a person."
"I still don't understand why you said no to Dominic twice."
"Honestly, I was scared he would leave me. Even after 9 years, I don't think I ever fully trusted him. He lived such a party lifestyle and part of me didn't think he was fully changed. From what he told me a month ago, he hasn't changed."
"I'm really sorry, Let."
"Mi, I don't need you to say sorry. I've made my peace with it. I've moved on and I guess Dom has too because he hasn't bothered me since we last saw each other."
"Yeah, I know."
"Changing the subject, where are you going for your honeymoon?"
"Well, we might go to Spain. I want to see your villa and say our goodbyes before we have to come back and get ready for the baby."
"So, where's Jack gonna stay?"
"We're taking him with us."
"Is that really a honeymoon?"
"Yeah, we were hoping you'd watch him for a few hours a day so we could go see the city."
"I'd love to. Right now, we have to go. It's almost time for you to get married."
"I'm ready, are you?"
"Yeah. Let's go."
The pair walked out to Letty's black Plymouth. Letty got into the driver's seat and Mia got in the passenger seat.
The drive was relatively quiet. Both girls were thinking about their respective futures.
After a short 10 minute drive, they had arrived at the venue. Mia and Letty got into position and the music started shortly after.
"Let's go." Letty whispered as they opened the doors.
They walked down the aisle to the pace of the music and they were at the end where Brian was standing, in under a minute. Letty kissed Mia's cheek and took her bouquet.
Brian and Mia joined hands and the wedding had started.
30 minutes later...
"By the power vested in me by the state of California, I give you Mr and Mrs Brian Matthew O'Conner. You may kiss your bride, Brian." The minister said.
Brian did the classic dip with Mia and they deeply kissed each other. There was a roar of cheers and applause from the crowd. Brian and Mia ran back down the aisle and the guests blew bubbles at and over them.
After a few minutes, the guests made their way over to a bigger hall for the reception.
The happy couple came through the hall doors with Jack walking in front of them, carrying a small chalkboard.
"I want to thank all of you for coming and watching Brian and I become one. I hope you enjoy the reception, but before we get this party started, we have an announcement." Mia said.
"As you all know, we're having another baby in about 3 months. Well, we found out the gender of the baby a few weeks ago." Brian said as he picked up Jack.
"Well, we're having a baby girl and we're naming her Navaah Camilla Leticia Toretto O'Conner!"
"A long name, we know. But there's history in this name."
"My mom's name was Camilla and we really wanted to honor her. Her mother, my grandma was named Nueva Savannah. We merged those names to create Navaah. For her second middle name, my best friend and practical sister, who's sitting right over there, will be the godmother of this baby and is already the godmother of Jack. Her name, though she hates it, is Leticia and we really wanted to use it. I hope you don't mind, Let." Mia said as she looked over at Letty.
Letty just smiled and nodded her head.
"As for her last middle name and last name, well it's pretty self explanatory. We are absolutely in love with her name and we cannot wait to meet her."
"And on that note, vĂ¡monos fiesta!" (let's party.)
The guests cheered and the DJ started the music.
Everyone started going to the opening buffet and a few people were mingling at the open bar. Letty and Mia were talking at the table while Brian, his best man Dyllan, and Jack were dancing around on the open floor. Everyone was happy and the mood was light and airy.
After about 30 minutes, many of the people had gotten their food, and the DJ announced it was time for the married couples first dance.
The couple walked hand-in-hand to the middle of the dance floor. Brian put his hands on Mia's waist and Mia put her hands around Brian's neck. The song, "Solo Por Un Beso," (Only/Just For A Kiss) started playing and the couple started slow dancing to it.
There were a few more dances and then Mia through her bouquet and one of her cousins caught it. Brian threw Mia's garter and his best man Dyllan caught it. They had a cake cutting. The wedding cake was a simple vanilla with light blue frosting and light grey flowers on the outside. The groom's cake was light grey and black.
The cake was given the guests and about an hour more of mingling occurred before the guests said their goodbyes and started trickling out. At at about 6pm, every guest but Letty and Dyllan had left. Luckily the venue they had picked had their own clean up crew so they didn't have to do it.
Dyllan said his final congrats and goodbyes and left.
"Mia, do you want me to keep Jack for the night? You guys can have the night to yourselves. I'll feed him and bathe him and we'll have fun."
"That would be great. Thanks Let."
"Hey, buddy. You're gonna come with me tonight. How does that sound?"
"Yay, Auntie Letty."
"Congrats, Bri and Mi. I'll see you tomorrow. Come on buddy." Letty said as she picked up the young boy.
Both parents kissed their child and Letty walked out of the venture and to her car. While getting Jack strapped in, Letty saw a black Charger pull up.
"Jack, don't move. Stay right here." Letty said as she walked over to the Charger.
"What the hell are you doing here? You don't belong here."
"Letty, I've been debating wether to come for the past 4 hours. I just wanted to wish them congrats before I leave."
"Fine, they're in there." Letty said as she pointed to the door and walked away.
Letty finished strapping Jack in, got in the car herself, and drove to her apartment.
When they got home, Letty went through Jack's bedtime routine and put him to bed around 7:30. After that, she started packing up her kitchen.
Around 10, she decided to go to bed. She fell asleep, dreaming of how life would've been if she and Dom had gotten married.
