Thank you to all my lovely readers for the reviews. Hope you like this chapter, Enjoy!
Dom's POV
It has been a week since Letty had gone out and she hadn't mentioned Carlos since. I was still holding my breath, still half waiting for her to spring it on me in three weeks time. Vince had asked her the morning after how her night had been and all she'd said was they'd had fun, that the movie they'd seen had been epic and we needed to see it too. Mia had looked thoroughly disappointed at breakfast so I took that as a good sign that nothing had happened between the two teens the night before.
"So Letty you going for your permit?" Leon asked her as she and I worked together on a car.
"Yeah thats the plan. You going to teach me?" She asked smirking back at him.
"You ain't getting behind the wheel of my car." Leon joked.
"I got your back, I'll teach you." I said as I bumped her hip making her smile up at me.
"See even Dom trusts me with his car." She joked with Leon and I laughed.
"We probably should start thinking about getting you a car." I said seriously and she looked up at me startled.
"Seriously?" She asked amazed and I nodded at her seriously.
"You're going to need one eventually. Besides we can work on it, fix it up while you're learning to drive."
"Sweet.' She beamed making us laugh and shake our heads.
"Oi lunches." Jesse announced as he entered the garage again. Letty snickered quietly but said nothing as she took hers and went over to sit on the bench. I gave Vince a look and he shrugged before I turned back to Jesse. Then I saw it and smirked myself.
"Nice colour Jess." I whispered to him as he passed me my lunch. He groaned and went red, quickly rubbing at his lips as he cast a annoyed look over at Letty.
"You're mean." I said as I joined her up on the bench.
"I said nothing." She shrugged innocently as she ate a fry.
"Got any plans tonight?' I asked her casually. It was Friday night and the races where on but I hadn't heard boo from Mia or Letty about coming to the races again. It was putting me on edge.
"No."
"None?" I asked doubtfully.
"I mean if you're offering to take me to the races..." She trailed off with a smirk and I mentally sighed with relief.
"Not even close." I smirked back.
"Then no." I frowned again as I turned back to my burger. Weird, they usually put up more of a fight.
"No party I should be worried about?" I asked suspiciously.
"No Dom. Look you're never going to let us go and no offense but I'm getting tired of the same argument." She sighed as she looked at me.
"Okay fair enough."
"Letty you seen or heard from Carlos lately?" Leon asked her from his spot at the desk.
"Nope, why?" She asked as she chewed her mouthful.
"Just wondering." He shrugged as the rest of us stayed quiet.
Letty's POV
"Uhuh, I'll pretend to believe that." I said after swallowing my food.
"Hey we're not complaining." Vince muttered from the corner and I rolled my eyes.
"I know." I muttered back.
I had heard from him but only twice in the last week and that was just a few text messages saying hey, how is everything?
I didn't mind, we'd put no label or expectations on the other night. I liked his friendship and we had a lot in common but while his kiss was nice and all, I was in no rush to get a boyfriend or date seriously. The only exception to the rule being Dom, but that was never going to happen.
"So have you given any thought to what you wanna do for your sixteenth?" Dom asked changing subjects.
"Not really."
"Nothing?" He asked frowning.
"Not really." I repeated.
"Dinner?" Leon asked.
"Movie?" Vince asked.
"Shit do you want a party?" Dom blurted out and I looked at him weirdly.
"I thought dinner was a given?" I asked looking away from Dom to Leon.
"Yeah okay so that one was a bad example." Leon said with a roll of his eyes.
"I don't know it's just a birthday." I shrugged.
"Just a birthday?" Jesse asked and I shrugged.
"Do you want a party?" Dom asked again and I could see the looks on the boys faces from the corner of my eye.
"I'm not your average teenage girl, I'm not into the whole slumber party thing Dom." I joked.
"What no girl on girl pillow fights?" Vince asked mock shocked making me and Dom snort in response.
"Yeah no thanks I'll pass." I shook my head and cringed.
"Cute V but that's not what I meant." Dom laughed.
"Oh come on. We could totally join in." Jesse joked ignoring Dom.
"Ew." I muttered, shuddering as I suddenly got a very bad visual. The boys cracked, pissing themselves laughing as they joked around some more.
"Seriously though Let, do you?" Dom asked me quietly.
"You'd let me have a party?" I asked slowly.
"No drinking." He quickly warned.
"No drugs." Leon added.
"No teenage sex in the house either." Vince added making me screw my nose up.
"Thanks for the offer but no thanks." I said as I jumped down from the work bench.
"No?" They all asked shocked.
"I'm good with just a quiet night at home. Dinner, movie… whatever."
"Right…" Leon trailed off looking at me weirdly before I turned my back to them. I don't know why they thought it was so weird. I wasn't overly social.
"I don't really have a lot of close friends. It would be like… I don't know, ten people? Not really much of a party." I thought about it with a shrug.
"Well shit. If we had of offered this to Mia she would be jumping for joy right now." Vince joked and I laughed in agreement.
"Mia's a social butterfly." I smirked.
"What about a night at the races?" Dom spoke up suddenly and I spun around quickly to stare at him. Did I hear him right?
"Huh?" I asked as I raised my eyebrow at him.
"Say what now?" Vince asked equally shocked.
"It's a once off. You're turning sixteen but you deserve to have more then dinner and a movie."
"Shit you're serious." I asked shocked.
"Dom..." Leon trailed off clearly agreeing with Vince and not thinking it a good idea.
"Just once." Dom warned me paying Vince and Leon no attention.
"Mia too?" I asked and he grimaced.
"I'd rather not..." He trailed off.
"Please?" I begged.
"Ah fuck." Vince swore from the corner of the room.
"Fine. Mia too. So is that a yes?" Dom sighed and I nodded quickly. Fuck I wasn't going to say no to this deal.
"There's going to be rules. You stick with us the entire night, no wandering off." He warned and I nodded quickly again.
"No racing." Leon added and I again I nodded.
"You don't speak to anyone you don't know." Vince snapped.
"Got it." I nodded.
"Consider this your birthday present." Dom spoke up with a small smile on his face and I grinned, trying really hard to not bounce up and down.
"Thank you." I said excitedly.
"Yeah yeah. Now get back to work." He grinned softly as he nudged me back over to the car we'd been working on before lunch. I bit my lip to stop myself from grinning so hard but it was useless. I think my smile would permanently be on my face for the next two weeks.
"Shit Dom." Leon muttered quietly from the other side of the room.
"I know, it just slipped out. She deserves something and if she doesn't want a party... Look it'll be fine. We'll all be there and watch them."
"This is going to end in a fight." Vince muttered.
"It'll be fine, we've got this." Jesse spoke up.
