Chapter 14
"Ay yo, Dom." Letty yelled. Dom looked up from his car magazine and glanced at Letty. She quickly gestured to the garage opening with the wrench that was in her hand. Dom looked at the door and watch Egypt walking into the garage.
"It's damn near three-thirty." Letty said to no one in particular.
"Egypt, can I see you in my office?" Dom asked her.
"Yeah, sure," Egypt replied. As she walked into the back room, she began to shut the door behind her.
"Yo," Letty said, "keep the door open."
Egypt opened the door again and stood in front of Dom. Though Letty and Brian couldn't hear them, they could tell that Dom was explaining to her that she needed to make an effort to get to work a little earlier than she had that day. Letty didn't care as long as Egypt knew her plate and stayed there.
When Egypt walked out of the office, Brian walked in.
"Dom, you might want to come out here and regulate some things. I think Letty's starting to get trigger-happy." Brian told him. Dom sighed and walked with Brian into the garage.
Vince's car pulled up and Leon's car was right behind him. Jesse was in the car with Leon. Dom and Letty waited for Vince's reaction to each. However, there wasn't one.
Vince and Egypt pretended that whatever happened between the two of them never happened. Then it clicked!
They didn't think that anyone knew. They were going to keep it a secret for as long as they could. Letty looked at Dom who looked at Leon who looked back at Jesse. Jesse shrugged and pulled out his laptop.
Dom put his arm around Jesse's neck and shook him a little. "So, it seems like all the girls wanted a piece of our mad scientist last night."
"Yeah, bro, you were gettin' it in!" Vince said.
"So were you." Letty said under her breath. Brian was seemingly the only one who heard and he laughed. Letty smirked and went to try and start the car she'd been working on.
"O'Conner, go tell my sister to come over and chill with us for a few and bring back Coronas." Dom demanded. Brian wiped his hands on a dirty rag and ran next door to get Mia.
Letty shut the hood of the car, her task completed and leaned against the car with her arms folded across her chest.
"What else do we have to do?" Dom asked.
"Nothing. Once O'Conner finishes that LeBaron, we're done." Letty responded.
"When are they being picked up?" Dom inquired.
"LeBaron around four-fifteen and the Mustang by five." Letty said. Dom nodded his head.
"Good work."
Brian and Mia returned the Coronas for everyone. They all sat around talking and drinking until the LeBaron was picked up by its owner.
"Let's play a game." Mia suggested.
"What game?"
"Let's play 'I've Never'."
"Sounds good. How do you play?" Egypt asked.
"Someone makes a statement starting with 'I've never' and whoever has done that specific thing takes a drink." Letty explained. Egypt smiled and nodded her head.
"Okay, I'll start." Dom said. "I've never stolen a car."
Vince, Brian and Leon drank and Letty laughed.
"Okay, okay. I have one. I've never farted and blamed it on someone else." Leon said. Everyone except Mia, Letty and Dom drank from their bottles.
"You guys are sick." Mia laughed .Letty just shook her head and Dom chuckled to himself.
"Okay, guys listen up. I've got a good one." Letty smirked. Everybody listened intently to what she had to say.
"I've never…slept with Vince." Letty stated.
There was an awkward, deep silence and no one moved for a whole minute. Until, Egypt drank from her Corona.
"Ooooohhh!" Everyone yelled and started laughing.
Egypt shook her head and her long, dark hair fell over her shoulders. She put her empty hand over her red face and laughed to herself.
"Don't worry, Egypt. It happens to the best of them." Brian laughed.
Dom sat on a stray row of back seats from cars and pulled Letty down onto his lap.
"That was a good one, baby." Dom told her.
She kissed his lips and looked back at Egypt who was staring intently at them. She looked away as Letty looked at her. Mia grabbed Egypt's arm, oblivious to her staring at Dom, and asked her if the sex was any good. Egypt smiled and nodded her head.
Letty began to get an eerie feeling about this new girl. If something went wrong…
Well, let's just say if something went wrong, Letty's reaction would not be pretty.
