Papi walked me down the isle in my peach wedding dress. Mia and Letty were
my maids of honor. Dom and Vince were Leon's best men. Leon was in a
charcoal black suit. He looked so handsome. I had my veil over my face.
When we got to the alter Papi lifted my veil and kissed my cheek. He
lowered it and let a tear fall.
"Who gives this woman away?" the priest asked.
"I do," Papi said standing next to me. Then he walked over and sat in the
front row to my right. I walked next to Leon and held his hand facing the
priest. The priest said a lot about this and that. Mia was standing to my
right crying. I just smiled.
"And Nell, do you take this man, to honor and." I didn't let the priest
finish.
"I do," I interrupted. Leon just smiled at me. I was surprised he wasn't
even the tiniest bit upset since he lost the race, by a long shot. I smiled
thinking about it. I ran out and somehow found Leon and just kissed him. I
knew it would all be ok.
We weren't going on a honeymoon yet, race wars was the all honeymoon I
needed. I couldn't wait to get there. We left tomorrow.
"You may now kiss your bride," the priest said and Leon leaned in and
kissed me. I was so happy. I would not be alone now. I was a married woman.
We walked to the limo and everyone threw rice at us.
We had to drive to the reception hall. "Nell, what do you say if instead of
going to the reception we go to the hotel?" Leon asked with an evil look in
his eyes.
"What about the guests?" I asked.
"They can do without," he said kissing my shoulder.
We spent the next three hours making precious love. It was amazing. I took
a shower while Leon napped and I got dressed in a skirt and top. I left my
hair down. It was only friends. Not anyone real special. I woke Leon and we
went to the reception.
When I got there I went and sat next to Letty. She had the biggest smile on
her face. "What is it chica?" I asked.
She didn't say anything, but pushed her hand in front of me to show me a
gold band with writing on it. I couldn't read it, but noticed it was on her
ring finger. "Congratulations!" I said smiling.
Leon and I danced. I had the most wonderful news to tell him still. We slow
danced and he held me close. I was close to four months pregnant now. I had
gone in the other day and to the doctor. She had taken a picture of my
baby. Our baby. "It's a girl," I whispered in Leon's ear. "And a boy." He
pushed me back and looked into my eyes.
"Twins?" he asked happily.
"Yup. A boy and a girl," I said waiting.
"YES!" he bellowed. Everyone laughed and he told them and they
congratulated us. I was so happy.
"You make me so happy," Leon said when we were sitting alone after cutting
the cake and smashing it in each others faces. I was so ecstatic.
"This is the greatest day in my life," I said looking at our guests. Then
as if by some untold wish I had, I saw my parents walk in the door. They
looked around, then walked straight up to us. My mom hugged me tightly as
my dad shook Leon's hand.
"We always marry our first love," my mom said.
"I know," I said kissing her cheek.
I was so happy. I knew this was the first day of a great life to come.
Unbeknown, to me though, it wasn't. I had my baby girl. She was healthy.
Then there were complications. My baby boy gave me a lot of problems and in
the end ended up killing both of us. I had a lot of internal bleeding. I
left Leon with a newborn baby to take care of.
Before I died though I held his hand. He was crying. I didn't know what to say. I was dying and leaving the people I loved most in the world. The only thing that came to my mind was, "Don't forget me. Don't loose the things you love." With that last bit of strength I died. I left Leon alone in the world. My baby girl grew up with the most loving family in the world, the Toretto family. She grew to love and respect cars. She was one beautiful little girl. Unfortunately I could only watch. I was never allowed to be with her. I died before they allowed me to see her. She was my baby girl. I was only allowed to watch her. I think now that it is better she grew up without me. I would of only hurt her in the long run. By loving her too much. Leon never did forget me and he never forgot the things he loved, but he did get over me. Thank the lord. He married again to a woman named Mary. She was perfect for him and for my baby. She gave him two little boys a year apart. They were a cute family. It was exactly what he needed. She was a nurse at the hospital and when I died she knocked him over when he was leaving. I remember watching him crying for me and my closing my eyes. I still heard him, but couldn't see him, and then I was gone. Dead, finito, the end.
