Lettys POV
I walked into the house and saw my mom reading on the couch. I sat on the chair beside the couch and looked at her.
"So?"
"This isn't going to be easy."
"I don't want this to be dragged out."
"Fine, I'm moving"
"You're moving?"
My head was spinning. If she was moving, that means I move. Maybe with everything going on I should move. But then Dom pops in my head. I don't think I could go more than a couple days without him. We fight, a lot. But I look in his eyes and I know it's him. But I know maybe this is my chance to have a relationship with my mom.
"Well I want you to come with us."
"us?"
"Me and Roger."
"Who the hell is Roger?"
"He's the guy I've been spending time with."
I raised an eyebrow
"He asked me to marry him."
"Marry him? Mom you spent one weekend with the guy"
"When you know you know."
"I'm going to graduate in 3 months. I want to do it with my friends"
"Then you can stay here. Honey, Roger is rich. He said he would pay for you to live here. Then you can come out to New York"
"New York? Mom!"
"Let, this could be good for us. Why not just be grateful?"
"Can I have time to think about this?"
She nodded. I decided to go walk around the block. I had so much to think about. Should I leave? Should I go? I didn't even know this guy. My mom didn't know this guy. I walked by the Torreto house I heard everyone in the back still, so I went up to Dom's room and crawled under the covers. I fell asleep pretty quickly. I woke up when Dom tossed his jeans and shirt on the bed.
"Is this your way of letting me know you want you have sex?"
He laughed and turned around. I smiled at him and sat up. He sat heavily beside me on the bed. He looked at me, and I shook my head. I didn't know what to tell him. I didn't know what I wanted. My mom was acting like she did when I was younger. Happy, nice, loving. I didn't want that feeling to leave. It was nice feeling like I had a mom again.
But I didn't want to leave and have it all change. I didn't want to have the mom that was never there. I didn't want to live in a house I felt so unsafe in if I moved to New York with them. Dom had his head on my shoulder, and I looked over at him. He was trying to stay awake. I looked at him and I didn't want to leave. I didn't know what to do.
I whispered, "Hey"
He didn't open his eyes, "yeah?"
"Can I stay here tonight?"
He nodded and he grabbed me. We slide down on the bed and was laying there. He was rubbing my back,
"Dom."
"Yeah Let?"
"I love you"
"You are freaking me out. What is going on?"
"Nothing. I just wanted to tell you."
He gave me a look and I knew he wasn't going to push it.
"I love you too."
I kissed him and smiled. He fell asleep pretty quick beside me. It took me a little while I had too much on my mind. I woke up when Dom rolled on me in the morning.
"Dominic"
"Leticia"
I laughed and pushed him off. He rolled off and pulled me with him. I closed my eyes again, falling back asleep. Vince walked in not knocking. He sat on the bed beside us, like this sort of thing happens all the time. But I guess that shows how close we are.
"Dom are we still going out?"
I looked up, "You're cheating on me with that?"
He laughed and Vince pushed me. I was laying on the other side of Dom now looking at both of them.
"Yeah man, well go"
"Where are you going?"
"Batting cages."
I smiled, "that should be fun."
"I will be if I can get him out of bed."
"I can take a hint Vincent."
He laughed and got up, "Fifteen minutes."
Dom nodded and Vince left. He looked at me.
"I'm good."
"What was the talk with your mom about?"
"Nothing important"
"You sure?"
I nodded, I hated lying to him but I needed to know what I wanted to do before I made a big deal about it. He kissed my forehead and got up. He was changing and I was watching him. Why did my mom have to figure out her life now. I was happy here, I wanted to stay here. But then I noticed the picture of Mia on Dom's wall and I remembered that she doesn't want me here. I ran my hand through my hair. I got up and started making the bed. Dom came up behind me and tackled me to the bed and whispered,
"whatever it is, I am always going to be here"
"I know"
He kissed me and I smiled. We made out for a few minutes before Vince banged on the door.
"He always could ruin a moment"
I laughed, "Go. Have fun. I'm going to finish my homework anyways."
"Okay, I'll swing by later."
"sounds good."
He grabbed my hand and we walked down stairs where everyone was sitting at the table. Mia glared at me, Mr. T smiled almost like he knew what my mom told me. Which I don't doubt, my mom and Mr. T had a weird relationship. She always looked at him to take care of me. Maybe I was just a burden around here. I smiled as we walked out of the door. I kissed Dom as he got in Vince's car. I walked to my house hopping to just hide out in my room for a little while. But that wasn't the case. My mom stopped me,
"I need an answer Letty. We're leaving in a week."
"A week?"
She nodded.
"I don't know mom. I don't know what I want to do."
"Let, if you come you can always come back here if you don't like it. We're going to keep the house. I just think this would be a second chance for us."
"I'll let you know by tomorrow."
She smiled at me and I walked up to my room. What the hell was I going to do?
