Dom's POV
I watched Letty as she bit her lip and stared at nothing while we were on a break. Her lunch sat beside her untouched, something that never happened. She'd been like this all day and at first I hadn't wanted to pry but now I was getting worried. When she'd been quiet this morning I put it down to being tired after last night but then the quietness had continued into the garage. I wasn't the only one who'd noticed either. Leon was already shooting me looks as if to say you better not have fucked up. If I had I couldn't recall what I'd done.
"Hey." I said as I stepped in front of Letty and picked up her hand, jolting her from where ever her head had been.
"Hey, sorry. I was a million miles away." She said shaking her head clear as she gave my hand a squeeze.
"Yeah, we noticed." I said still frowning.
"Sorry, I'll be more focused." She said as she gave me a small smile.
"What's wrong Let?" I asked quietly.
"Hmm? Oh nothing." She said as she finally picked up her now cold lunch.
"I don't buy that shit. Seriously what's wrong?" I asked now really worried. She sighed heavily, pushing her food away for good. She stayed silent before shooting a look over my shoulder, I turned slightly and followed her gaze. I frowned when I noted she was staring at Vince.
"He say something to upset you? Cos if he has I'll hold him while you punch him." I asked seriously as I turned back to her.
"No nothing like that but thats good to know, thanks." She laughed making me relax slightly. I stepped closer to her, fitting perfectly between her legs as she sat on the work bench.
"Then what's up?" I asked as I ran my hands down her arms.
"Have you spoken to Vince about what we spoke about last night?" She asked quietly and I shook my head.
"Not yet, I was going to do it after work. I need his head in the game today." She looked guilty for a second before I gave her a smile.
"I'll forgive you." I joked and she smiled.
"Sorry it's just… I can't stop thinking about what Emily said. I think maybe Vince needs to hear it from a different point of view." She explained.
"Okay, like who?" I asked.
"Me?" She asked me worriedly.
"You?" I asked surprised.
"Bad idea?" She asked unsure.
"No, if anything I think it makes the most amount of sense. You connect with Emily on a level neither Vince nor I can." I said honestly.
"Thats what I thought. I'm just worried he might get the wrong idea and flip out." She worried.
"Baby if he flips out I'll handle him. Don't worry about that, I got your back. I think you're right, you should talk to him." I spoke leaning in to give her a kiss.
"Yeah?" She double checked and I nodded, allowing her to steal another kiss before I pulled away.
"Okay. I'll talk to him tonight after dinner. Sorry about today, just playing on my mind you know?" She said sighing.
"It's okay, just don't shut me out next time. You worried me." She gave me a smile and I kissed her once more this time lingering slightly.
"Ugh." I heard behind me making Letty and I pull away and look at where the noise had come from. I raised my eyebrow at Jesse and Leon who were wearing grins.
"Problem?" I smirked.
"You two are just too much." Leon quipped back with a smirk of his own.
"Completely love sick."Jesse spoke up with a sly grin.
"Just wait, just you wait. When the right girl comes along for you two we'll be the ones laughing." I said as I stepped away from Letty, letting her jump down so she could go back to work. She gave me a small grin before she went into the office to finalise her paperwork leaving me alone with the two clowns.
"Ooh hear that Jess? He didn't deny it." Leon joked but his eyes had widened.
"I heard it. The L word coming into play already Dom?" Jesse asked me quietly, making sure Letty wasn't in hearing distance. I thought about the question for a second before shrugging. The word wasn't making me run scared. I didn't want to jump up and down or get defensive over it. I thought about what I'd told Letty, where I saw us in the years to come. Maybe they were on to something.
"He's grinning." Leon laughed in shock.
"Shit." Jesse whistled.
"Get back to work." I laughed as I turned back to mine.
"Fucking hell, never thought I'd see the day." Leon shook his head at me.
"You haven't, I haven't said it yet. You did, now get back to work." I smirked before flipping them off and tuning them out.
Caught up in my work I let my mind wander. I felt something, bigger and stronger then anything I had ever felt before for Letty. But would I class it as love? Surely it hadn't been long enough? We'd only been official just on a week.
Like a magnet I lifted my head up when Letty walked into the room. She was arguing with Vince about what was better, muscle or import. I watched silently as she rolled her eyes at his answer, her attitude coming out in full force as she crossed her arms over her chest and demanded a better answer. I saw the determined look in her eye and knew she wasn't going to back down. I chuckled lowly not nearly loud enough for her to hear but somehow she did and I watched satisfied at the small red tinge that appeared on her cheeks. Clearly in the short amount of time we'd had together we were quite well attuned to each other. The thought made me smile.
