Jayla slammed her foot on the gas petal and the buildings sped past her, Dom and her were head to head for the first street but up ahead lay a turn, Jayla smiled knowing she would take the lead. But her father sped past her; he must have used his NOS buying him time at the turn. Jayla took a deep breathe; he didn't have enough NOS for every turn she would catch up soon.

Jayla soon caught up with her dad in the middle of the race and there was another turn coming up, she was on the outside and him on the inside. As they turned Jayla nicely drifted around him and the turn taking first.

"See ya daddy o" Jayla said seeing him behind her. She held the lead for a while until she didn't see him in her rear mirror or in front of him, where did he go? No sooner did he ask did he pull out next to her from a side street "that cheating ass" she thought "Well if he wants to play dirty" she said before disappearing in a ally way.

She learned the street from Ryan on their drive earlier today; it should give her a head of lead. When she pulled back on course she was about 90 feet ahead but then Dom used the last of his NOS and was dead even with her. Jayla saw the finish line ahead, no more turns and no more NOS just a race.

If Jayla pressed any harder on the petal it would go though the floor she swore. Jayla closed her eyes as she crossed the finish line and swerved the car around. She got out of the car and by the look on Dom's face he didn't know who won either. They walked over to Vince, Brian and Leon "Who won?" they asked at the same time.

The three looked at each other "It was tie"

"What?" Dom and Jayla asked.

"How can it be a tie?" Jayla asked.

"Look for yourself" Leon said handing his phone to them, which he recorded the ending with. They replayed the ending until the phone went dead but it was tie, somehow it was.

"Well I won" Jayla said putting her hands on her hips.

"What?" Dom said

"You cheated; you went off the road first, after you said a clean race"

"That was clean" Dom said.

"No way" Jayla said "I win"

"No" Dom said "We both win" Dom said smiling "You almost had me there with those drifting moves"

"Yeah if you had more NOS you would have won" Jayla said "So now what?"

Jayla smiled down at the new list of rules her and her dad made, Dom smiled back before posting the list on the fridge. The sun was just rising though the kitchen window "Time for bed kiddo" Dom said messing her hair as he passed upstairs.

"Night" she called walking over to the list. "Wont have to worry about the last rule for a while" Jayla mumbled before heading off to bed.

Everyone in the house slept late on Sunday, Jayla woke first around 2 in the afternoon. She headed downstairs and poured herself some cereal and sat down in front of the TV Indian style with the bowl in her lap. She only took two bites when someone was knocking on the door "who the hell" she thought getting up; she was only wearing a black spaghetti strap tank top with some dark/red plaid pajama pants that were rolled on the side showing off her hips. Her hair was falling out of its bun that was popped on her head.

Jayla opened the door and froze before opening the screen door "Ryan?" He was standing on the edge of the porch balancing on the edge, his hands in his pockets of his jeans. His leather jacket hung over the tight white tank top he had on under near.

"Hey…Can we talk?" he asked whispering.

"Um yeah" she said stepping out and sitting on the first step, she patted the seat next to her "I think we do need to talk"

Ryan nodded and sat next to her.

"I'm sorry" they both said looking at each other. They shared a nervous laugh and Jayla cleared her throat wanting to go first, he nodded.

"I'm sorry Ryan. I was acting so stupid the other day and thank god you weren't. You were right I didn't want to have sex with you, not yet that is." Jayla said blushing. "Anyway I understand if you don't want to talk to me because of my actions and my dads. I'll go get the keys" Jayla stood but Ryan stood too and put her face in his hands "Jayla I'm sorry about that girl you saw with me yesterday I was just hurt and didn't know what I was doing. I don't want the car back. I want you back" he said placing his lips on hers.

"You never lost me" Jayla said as they broke apart. It was true Ryan never lost her, her dad never lost her, she lost herself. She got caught up in all the drama in life and forgot about what is truly important in life, not the cars, not the money but the people.

"Aww that's so romantic" Mia whispered.

"That's a keeper" Leon said.

"That's enough" Dom said opening the front door where the crew was standing.

Everyone busted out laughing but for Dom who had his arms crossed, Jayla walked over and holding hands with Ryan "Dad this is Ryan, my boyfriend. Ryan, this my Dad." Jayla said wrapping her arms around Dom, Dom wrapped his arms around his daughter kissing her head.

Jayla looked around at her family and smiled knowing she was home.

The End

What did you think? No that's not the end….squeal soon!
