Well, another truth and lies chappie, hope you all enjoy and i'm really sorry but i had writers block until now.
Chapter 6
"So much for family." Vince said, sitting one the couch with Letty and Jesse. Maya was sitting on the floor playing.
"V. We're still family." I stated softly.
"That's not what he meant." Letty said. "He meant if for Dom and Mia. The two that always said we were a family, kinda enforced it actually. They were always the ones that is one of us would say something about it, they'd say we were a family, all of us, and that nothing would change that. Couple of liars." Letty said watching Maya.
Brian sighed, "Look, I'm sorry..."
"You didn't do anything Brian. Well, nothing too bad anyway." I said, sitting back in my seat with Leon sitting at my feet chewing on a toothpick.
"No. He just lied about being a cop, even though i knew the whole time, and broke Mia's heart. Nothing too big." Vince growled out.
"Vince enough."
Rome shook his head, "All right. So you guys are supposed to be talking about what happened? What went down?" He said, Brian never having told him the whole story.
"Well, Mr. Eats more than Vince. Is it really any of your business?"
"It is cause it's my boy you got a problem with. And when you got a problem with him, you got one with me."
"Well, that story really ain't none of your business." Letty said, as she glared at him.
"Girl, don't get no attitude with me."
"Boy don't start nothing you can't finish." Letty said standing when he did and walking towards him.
"Hey! Enough! Roman if you're gonna be startin' stuff you can leave and Let, you need to chill. Now. We have more important things to worry about than you two having beef with each other." Leon said standing between them.
I grabbed Letty and sat her down as Brian sat Rome in his seat.
"Chill." Brian said pointing at him.
"Don't be pointin' at me bra."
"Don't be startin' stuff and I won't be pointin' at you cuz."
Rome glared at Brian then looked away.
Brian shook his head and sat back down.
"This needs to stop now. Letty he's gonna find out sooner or later whether Brian tells him, we tell him now or he listens in on a later conversation. So we may as well tell him now." I said, sitting back down.
Brian let out a breath, "Guess i can go first. When i first got the job i figured it's be easy. Get in, bust'em, get out, get my detective badge. Be done with it. I read Dom's file, saw pictures of everyone. I was told where to go. They got me the job at Harry's. I went to the store everyday for three weeks, ordering the same thing. Tuna. Which to everyone else thought was bad."
"It was!" Jesse exclaimed, earning a few chuckles from everyone.
Brian laughed, "But eventually, i started falling for Mia." He said then looked at Vince, seeing that he wasn't too happy about that.
"Then there was the confrontation with V and Brian. Which Jesse, Anna and I found funny. Mostly because seeing someone like blondie go against Vince. Even though he held his own." Leon added.
Jesse nodded in agreement.
"Dom, of course after being pushed by Mia and Letty, went out and pulled them apart. Later, Brian raced Dom, lost. Like he ever had a chance at winning. Cops came, we ran." I said.
"My turn again." Brian said. " I took off, caught up with Dom. Saw him running, picked him up and out ran the cops. Of course on the wrong side of town. Tran blew up my car by shooting it, so we started walking. 'Til Anna picked us up." (my story, no cab involved)
"Ooh, my turn." I said smiling. "I drove back to 'The Fort'. V and Dom got into, mostly because Brian was there. Dom claimed Brian owed him a ten second car. Which Brian got, we fixed it up, got it going for Race Wars."
"Okay, but why would Brian be trying to bust you? I know he let the guy go, but what were you doing?"
"We were hi-jacking semi's." Vince said, finally speaking up.
Rome looked around as the rest of us but Brian looked down, "You're serious."
Letty nodded, "That's how Vince got the scar on his arm and I almost lost Maya. After the first day of Race Wars, we weren't supposed to do anymore but Dom insisted that we had to. So that night around midnight or one am we left. Party going strong, Mia tried to stop us but Dom wouldn't listen to her. Or me or Leon or Anna. That it didn't feel right, not without Jesse."
"Where was he?" Rome asked.
"He raced Tran for slips and lost. Then he took off, no on knowing where. We should have looked for him." Leon said looking down.
I reached down and touched his shoulder, knowing he still felt bad.
"Tran shot him in a drive by after he got to the house." Brian said. "Me and Dom went after them and took'em down. I killed Johnny. And the rest you all know."
"Yeah, considering you told us the last part." Jesse said.
"Dang, what were y'all hijacking?"
"DVD players and stuff like that." Vince said.
Rome nodded then looked at his scar, still wondering how he got it.
"I was going into the truck. Driver shot at me and started swerving. Wire got wrapped around my arm, punk saved me."
Letty looked at Rome, "Me and Anna were riding in the same car. I went under it to save Vince. Made it under but got hit anyway and we flipped. Both got hurt pretty bad. Almost lost little bit here." She turned to me then looked down, "Sorry guys." She said, seeing the looks on mine and Leons face.
"S'ok Letty." I said.
"What? What happened?" Brian asked, confused.
"Letty almost lost her baby, i did lose mine." I said simply, looking down.
"You were pregnant?" Brian asked, the shock evident in his voice.
"Three weeks."
Well, i know it's not very long but i hope you like it anyway. R and R please to let me know what you thought.
