Letty's POV

"I'm so sorry. I never meant to say anything, it just slipped out. What he said it just made me so angry." Dom sighed, disappointment clear in his voice.

"They'll forget about it, eventually." I said quietly as I held his face in my hands, looking over the damage that Vince had inflicted.

"I think a couple of ribs are broken." He spoke trying to make it seem like a joke but I didn't laugh. He was probably right.

"Let, look at me." He asked and I hesitated before looking up at him.

"What?" I asked quietly.

"We need to talk about that night." He started making me rip away from him but he grabbed hold of me before I could get far.

"No Letty, we've ignored it for long enough. The truth is out, there's gunna be questions. Fuck I have questions. We need to talk." He spoke determined and I sagged, reluctantly I nodded. He was right, we'd skirted around the topic for far too long.

"Why did you kiss me that night?" I asked timidly.

"Why do you think? I have feelings for you Let. I didn't know what they were back then, not completely anyway but I felt something. I watched you, all the fucking time. That night seeing those guys treat you that way made me mad, I… I kissed you because I wanted to. You were going to leave and I didn't want you to go. I thought you were going to push me away at first, but then you kissed me back. I hadn't planned to take it that far but you didn't pull away, you seemed to want me as much as I wanted you. Then the next morning you were silent… I tried to talk to you...fuck. I hated myself the next morning." He explained sadly and I frowned.

"Why?"

"Because I thought I'd done something you hadn't wanted. I thought I'd read the situation wrong."

"I wanted it." I whispered quietly.

"Yeah, I know that now." He said quietly, licking his lips as he thought carefully about his next words.

"Why didn't you say something?" He asked me and this time it was my turn to pause.

"Maybe I was a little embarrassed. It was all new to me so when you didn't say anything neither did I." I explained.

"Guess neither of us are that good at communicating." He smiled and I returned it back.

"I meant what I said. I don't regret that night. I want that always. No one else, just you.-"

"I-" I started, cutting him off but he opened his mouth again quickly and spoke again.

"I know, you don't want to answer me until the results are in. Fine. But I need to know, do you feel the same way?" He asked me and I froze, casting my eyes downward to avoid his gaze.

"You know I do." I whispered.

"If tomorrow comes back fine and we're in the clear are you willing to give us a try?" He asked, his hands coming up to cup my face as he tilted my head up so I had to meet his eyes.

"Yes." I whispered.

"So thats your answer?" He grinned and I sighed realising he'd gotten it out of me after all.

"If we're in the clear." I repeated his words and he immediately frowned.

"And if we're not?" He asked me cautiously.

"I won't hold you down-" I started but his lips cut me off.

"No. You are not doing that, you don't get to make my decision for me." he said as he pulled away from the gentle kiss he'd given me.

"So you get to make mine for me?" I asked annoyed.

"No we make it together. We are in this together and if after everything you still decide that you don't want to be with me then I'll let you go. It'll kill me but I'll do it. Just promise me you won't shut me out of being in your life and the baby's." He begged and I shook my head.

"I would never do that. We just can't build a relationship on having a kid together, shit look at what it did to my parents?" I said sadly.

"We are not your parents. Our situation is different. You are all I want, why can't you trust me when I say that." He begged once more, his hands reaching out to me as he pulled me closer. I was almost practically sitting in his lap.

"Because it doesn't make sense. I'm not… them." I finished lamely.

"Who? Chasers?"

"Yes. I'm young and inexperienced, I don't have what it takes to keep you interested." I finished almost silently watching as his eyes widened at my words.

"No, you have so much more. I'm not after someone like them Let. I want a girl who is going to call me out on my bullshit, I want someone I can hold a conversation with that isn't just about sex. Someone who's not going to care if I don't win every race or spend insane amounts of money on them. Who's going to stand by me when things go wrong and is willing to fight along side me. I want you Letty. In whatever way I can have you." His honesty shook me as I licked my lip nervously. His eyes followed the movement, his body leaning in to mine. Against what my head was telling me I leaned into him, meeting his lips half way as we kissed softly. We were both aware of the injuries to his face.

"Just let us get through today and tomorrow first okay?" I asked shakily as we pulled away.

"Yeah."

"What are we going to do about everyone?" I asked him quietly.

"It's my mess to clean up, let me sort it for the moment." he spoke up and I frowned, ready to disagree with him but his look cut me short.

"Please. Just let me handle it to start with." He pleaded and I relented.

"Okay."

"Just lay low for a while." He asked and I nodded.

"You need a doctor. Can you stand?" I asked closing the conversation for now.

"Yeah."

It took us a while but we eventually got Dom off the floor and into his car. I had to drive but he wasn't worried.

"I trust you." He smiled.

It was about two hours later when we finally arrived back at the house. No cars where there so we assumed all the guys were still off somewhere brooding. I helped Dom up to his room before going back downstairs for a glass of water so he could take his pain meds. No broken ribs thankfully but they were bruised. His wounds had been cleaned up and his split eyebrow had been stitched up.

"Here you go." I said as I walked back into the room with the water and his medication. He was sitting up in bed, propped up by his pillows, shirtless and looking a little worse for wear.

"Thanks."

"Why didn't you fight back?" I asked suddenly as I sat at the edge of the bed.

"Because." He answered before throwing back the two little white pills.

"Because?" I asked again, not willing to let it go.

"Because I deserved it. I should have come clean to them too." I made a small noise of disagreement in the back of my throat.

"Letty I betrayed their trust. Trust me, I deserved it." I said nothing else, dropping the conversation because it was a pointless argument to have.

"Sleep." I said as I stood, intending on leaving him to rest.

"Where are you going?" He stopped me, wincing as he leaned forward to grab my hand.

"Out to let you sleep." I answered and he smirked at me.

"Stay."

"Last time you asked me that I lost my virginity." I joked lightly and his smirk widened.

"As much as I would love to have a repeat of last time I'm in no condition. Just stay, come lie next to me until I fall asleep." He asked and I nodded, waiting for him to move over slightly. I kicked off my shoes and climbed in beside him. His arm snaked around my middle and pulled me closer, allowing him to spoon my back. I relaxed against him, resting my head on his arm. He relaxed a second later and stilled. It was only a few minutes later before his breathing changed, letting me know he was asleep. Not wanting or needed to move I let my eyes shut.
