starlily16: Thank you for letting me know I accidentally posted the wrong chapter!

Seeing Dom looking down at the papers again I walked up to him and put my hand on his arm "You did a great job with me papa" I whisper as he head turns to look at me with an expression I hate to see on him.

"You are the reason why I'm still in school and why I'm the person I am today, Yes I'm stubborn and crazy at times but it's because of you that I'm alive Dom".

Dom got up from his seat and wrapped his arms around me as we look at the rest of the family only to see them smiling at us, Dom opens his arm and they all crowd in for our special Toretto appreciation hugs.

"Lee, are you crying?" Letty asked the man next to her who shook his head "Nah, the girl just gives good speeches is all plus I have allergies" Leon says wiping the corner of his eyes making us all laugh, the atmosphere back to normal.

A tow truck pulls up by the garage doors and we all look at it silently until Brian walks back up to us smiling happily "All right, what the hell is this?What do you got there?" Dom asks as he leans up against the door with a smirk.

Brian points at the smashed up red car on the bed of the truck "This is your car" He tells Dom seriously "My car?" Dom repeats as Jesse bangs on the car door "I said a 10-second car, not a 10-minute car" I stood next to Dom with a smirk as I let out a laugh.

"You could push this across the finish line, or tow it" Jesse mumbles to us and Letty let's out a loud laugh "You couldn't even tow that across the finish line" I sass as my family laugh backing me up.

Brian just squints as me playfully "No faith" he gestures to us with his hand "I have faith in you, but this isn't a junkyard. This is a garage" Dom points to the cars we have inside and Brian sighs turning to Jesse "Hey pop the hood".

"Pop the hood?" Dom repeats with an impish grin, I cross my arms and watch the transaction between the two men with a smile "Pop the hood" Brian confirms and Dom nod before giving me his red bull "Bring her in" He tells Brian and walks off into the garage as Brian climbs into the tow truck.

I looked at Mia who seemed to be blushing and gave her a smirk "Ugh shut up" she muttered and walked off towards Dom her face a brighter red than before "I didn't even say anything" I shouted after her knowing exactly why she got flustered.

"You are a minx Mija" Letty whispered to me as she threw her arm over my shoulders and pulled me over to Dom with a laugh "I have no idea what you're talking about" I replied innocently.

Brian finally got the car into the garage and we all crowded around the hood which fell off in one piece when they opened it up "2JZ engine. No shit" Jesse exclaimed as he almost climbed into the hood, his face glowing.

" And what did I tell you?" Brian bragged giving Mia a subtle wink of my brother's shoulder as he looked at the engine "I retract my previous statement" Dom admits as he holds a crowbar in his hands and pointing it at the engine they were all fawning over.

"You know what? This will decimate all after you put about $15,000 in it. Or more, if we have to overnight parts from Japan" Jesse informed us as he points to the car excitedly and Brian just watches Dom carefully.

"We'll put it on my tab at Harry's," Dom tells Jesse who bounces happily "Yes!" I watched Jesse with a laugh as he starts to jumps around, ADD was strong with him he just couldn't keep still "I gotta get you racing again so I can make some money off your ass" Dom tells Brian as he points the crowbar at him.

"There's a show, down in the desert called Race Wars. That's where you'll do it." I frowned at my sister slightly when she rolled her eyes at Dom's words but I didn't call her out on it, Mia was never into the races or the cars.

"When you're not working at Harry's, you're working here. If you can't find the right tool in this garage, Mr. Arizona...you don't belong near a car" We all smile at Dom as he taunts Brian jokingly but I knew there was some truth to his words, Dom was always right.

Leaning against the banged-up car I watched as Mia walked over to Brian and leaned into him "He owns you now" she smirks at him before walking off leaving Brian watching her every move.

Brian turns back around with a smirk until he sees me standing by him, watching him with inquisitive eyes "Hey kid, how's the arm" I just continued to look at him as he makes small talk, looking down at my arm that was in plaster I frowned "Don't hurt her".

Brian looked at me shocked before I elaborated "My sister, she's better than being Dom's accountant and whatever else he needs" Brian nodded and briefly looked over his shoulder "I won't" he promised with a small smile that I guess was supposed to be comforting.

"Yes, you will," I told him as I crossed my arms "Mia's never been interested in the racers before you, I know what they're all like, the wondering eyes, the 'just talking'. I love my brother but I've seen all those things first hand".

"but?" Brian prompts like he knew I had more to say "but, you seem different because I see the way you look at her too" I tell him as my hands drop by my sides as I walk past him "I won't hurt her if she gives me a chance" I hear Brian say from behind me.

I turn to him with a soft smile "I'll believe that when I see it" I take a step out of the garage before turning back to Brian "if you do hurt her though, I'll make sure you regret it" smiling at the look of shock on Brian's face, I finally walk away hoping he got my message.
