Tony taking this job was my alternative of him dying. He won't be around as much, but I didn't want him to die.
If any mistakes. Sorry, just wanted to upload. I'll edit later.
Dom's POV
We walked inside the pizza place and my dad looked at us. Mia smiled and hugged him. I went over and put my hand on his shoulder, Mia started first,
"I'm sorry. I know this is your dream. You just mean a lot to me"
"You guys mean everything. If you didn't want me to go, I'll say no."
I started then,
"No. Dad, go. We'll be fine."
"You're sure?"
"Yes. You have raised us right. You'll still be able to come home if we need you."
Mia asked,
"What about graduation?"
My dad looked at her,
"I'll be there. I fly out two days after"
She smiled and hugged him again. They pulled away and I walked over to Letty. I walked beside her and sat down. She put her hand on my leg and smiled. We all hung out for the rest of the night. We were back at my house. My dad had gone to bed and we were playing some video game. I was sitting in the recliner and Letty was in between my legs. Mia was on the couch and Brian was on the floor playing with Vince and Jesse. Leon went out with some girl he met a couple nights ago. I felt my phone go off, so I pulled it out of my pocket and I held it in front of me and Letty. It was Hector,
Hey man race tomorrow, you in?
I looked at Letty and she shrugged and smiled.
Yeah man, I'll be there. But let's make it a surprise.
Alright man, see you tomorrow
I felt Letty snuggle into me a little more when my phone went off again. This time it was Clarissa. Letty looked at and I felt her tense up. I kissed the side of her head, I opened the message,
Hey Dom. I was wondering if we could talk?
I looked at Letty and she grabbed my phone. I knew she needed to just get it out of her system. I snaked my arms around her waist as she relaxed into me. I put my head on her shoulder and watched her type.
What do you want Clarissa?
I wanted to know if you would give me a chance
A chance at what
Us, I think we could be good together. Letty hasn't been around. You must be lonely.
I think you saw Letty at the grocery store. You need to realize that you will never have a chance. So you just need to stop.
I stopped her texting after the last one.
"Grocery store?"
She nodded,
"I went with Brian the other day. She has not changed."
"Well when you have a face like mine, people don't give up easily."
She laughed at me and then looked down my phone vibrated in her hand.
You should just give up on her, she'll just leave again. You know, I know it. She doesn't fit in here.
Clarissa my relationship is none of your business. There is no chance and never will be a chance for an us.
She threw my phone on to the table beside us. I squeezed her tight and kissed her neck. She laughed as I did. Vince got up to go get drinks and passed me the controller. I started playing as Letty was falling asleep on me. Vince came back with a couple beers and I took one. He grabbed his controller back. I was watching them play. I laughed as Jesse pushed Vince which made Vince lose. I took a drink of my beer before putting it on the arm of the chair. This was what we live for. Family.
One Week Later
Letty's POV
"Dom stop!"
"Make me"
He started tickling me again. We landed up in my bedroom and he tackled me to the bed. He was tickling my sides when I grabbed his ear.
"Ow Let. Stop."
"Make me"
He laughed and kissed me. I grabbed his neck and pulled him closer. I had one more week until I was supposed to go back to New York. Four days until graduation. The last week has been amazing. Dom pulled away and looked at me,
"What?"
"It's been eight days"
"Eight days?"
"You told me to promise to wait eight days before we talk about New York"
I sighed and put my hands on my head. I rubbed it and looked at him again.
"Dom come on."
He stood up,
"No Let. I'm not letting it go anymore."
"You can't just be happy right now?"
"I am happy, but I need to know if I'm losing again"
"You never lost me in the first place"
I went up to go and touch him. I didn't want to leave but I still didn't decide. I didn't know what to tell him but he stepped back when I got to close.
"Don't. Why can't you just let yourself be happy. Why do you always need to put your mom first when she never did for you? Why can't you just let me love you? Why do you have to be afraid? SO until you make up your mind, I'll be at my house."
"Don't be an ass"
"Don't be a bitch"
I was taken aback by that. Never has he called me a bitch. I had tears in my eyes. I didn't want to have this fight. I knew it was my fault. I didn't know what I wanted. He is the only one that has ever loved me through everything.
"Now you really are a bastard."
"God Let. Can't you see it? I've been holding on for dear life the last week and all you do is play with me. I'm so sick of it. Either you stay or you leave. But I can't keep doing this. You have always been my constant. The one that's grounded me, I just need you to show it back. Have some faith in us, I can't keep being the only one that fixes things."
I was crying at this point. He was right. He always fixed things even when I was the wrong. He was walking down the stairs and I was chasing after him when there was a knock on the door.
"Oh look you have company. I'll be at my house, Let I'm serious this time."
He opened the door and there stood Liam, Sean, Gwen and Stacey. They looked between me and Dom. They looked a little shell shocked. Dom stormed passed them. I smiled at them,
"Hey guys"
They shakily smiled back. This was the worst time for a surprise visit from them. I had to go talk to Dom. I knew he meant it this time. If I left, we were done. I hated that he gave me the ultimatum but I knew he put up with my shit long enough.
My mom told me that if I stayed I and she would be okay. I believed that. I was staying. I just had to try and talk to Dom but at this point I saw his car race down the street and I sighed, looking at my guests.
I hope you like it.
This was my way of having Letty make a desicion. I love reviews.
