GROWN MAN
Chapter 5
It's Friday night. Making it race night, and also 2 weeks since the whole run in with Reggie. Ever since, Letty has been jumpier than ever. Reggie's last words to her rang in her ears every day since. She didn't know what kind of trouble he was going to cause or when it was going to happen. Everyone met at the toretto's house until it was time to actually go to the races. It was just a time to just wind down and relax before it was to get down and dirty. Everyone was laughing having a good time except for Letty. She sat near the bookshelf with a corona in her hand staring into space. Kitty walked up to her and started a conversation. Obviously not listening she notice a hand on her knee. "Letty.honey. Are you ok?" Kitty says "huh? Oh.. um. I'm fine. What did you say?" "I said that it's been 2 weeks since you heard from that guy. You think he blew town?" Letty looks back into space "I doubt it. You don't know Reggie like I do. Something's gonna happen and soon." Sighing Kitty rubs Letty's arm as she gets up to walk over to Vince. Looking over at Dom, Letty smiles warmly at him. Smiling back he winks and kisses at her. Giggling a little she blows kisses at him also. 'What is he gonna think when he finds out about reggie?' Probably beat tha shit out him and beat me senseless with his body Dom walks over to her "Baby." he says "Yes?" "It's time to go. You ride with Kitty and Mia ok?" "Fine."
AT THE RACES
The team all sat by his or her cars waiting to be challenged, but so far no one was taking a bite. It wasn't until Lance Tran's arrival. Things would have never gotten heated. Tran saw the Toretto team and was instantly trying to start something. "They haven't caught you yet Toretto?" Tran said to Dom. "Who?" Dom questioned. "The police, I'm sure if they knew that a murdering thief was walking free they'd want to know." "I think the same can be said for you also Tran." Dom says, trying everything in his power to not snap his neck. There's a small pause amongst them until Lance broke the silence. "I heard you got a new car." "Yeah well, only one way to see what it can do. I challenge you with a new racer." Tran says. "You know the rules new racers mean higher stakes." "You know I'm good for it." Tran says. The team all looks at each other for a moment before Dom says, "Let's ride." Dom was the first to pull into the starting line followed by 2 other racers and finally Tran's newbie racer in a tinted blue eclipse. Letty kneeled down to Dom's passenger side window. "Do good baby." She said in a slightly concerned voice. "I always do." He smiles. They both look over to Tran's mysterious racer. In a gasp Letty says "Oh my god! It's Reggie." "What tha fuck is he doin out?!" "Better yet, what is he doin with Tran's gang." Vince chimes in. Looking at Letty Dom thinks 'I don't know but I don't think we're in Kansas anymore.' Reggie shoots Dom an evil sneer. "What's wrong Toretto? Letty girl didn't tell you I was back?" Reggie yells to Dom. Everything in Letty suddenly shuts down; closing her eyes slowly she can feel Dom's bore into her. As the flag girl came out to start the race, Com's eyes shoot from Letty back to the road. Revving up their engines Dom's eyes fill with anger. All he wants now is to beat Reggie. The racer's, at this point, don't even exist. It's just him and that ass Reggie. Flag girl swings her arms and all the cars peel out from start. Reggie and Dom's car take a steady lead leaving the other 2 racers to eat their dust Soon Dom and Reggie are just millimeters apart. Dom is now only a few feet away from finish. Turning on one nos unit he shoots to the lead and crosses the finish with Reggie quickly at his tail. Cheers and chants are sung loud for Dom as he goes back to the start. Getting out of the car he is quickly grabbed by Vince, Brian, and Leon. Collecting his money from the other 2 racers, Reggie comes walking up with his share in his hand. Reggie slaps the money into his hand but grabs it at the same time then pulls him close so he can whisper into his ear. "Tran told me to tell you that you're crazy if you think that this is over. And you're really crazy if you think I'm letting you have my girl." With that Dom pushes Reggie away. Laughing at Dom Reggie looks over Dom's shoulder to see Letty. "I told you Letty. You can't quit us." Dom lunges for Reggie but is quickly held off by the guys. "Not here man. Later." Brian says. Before Dom can speak, Leon shouts "Whoa Brotha we got cops!" Everyone then runs to his or her cars and peels away.
LATER AT THE FORT, THERE'S NO AFTER PARTY BECAUSE THERE'S JUST TOO MUCH STUFF TO TALK ABOUT
Everyone is in the living room waiting on Letty to get in. She's the last of the team that hasn't showed up. Suddenly the door opens slowly and Letty appears. Mia and Kitty run to her like 2 old women. "Are you okay Let? What took you so long?" Mia breathes, "I had to think." She says lightly. Dom glares at her as she walks through the entrance of the living room. Stopping to look at him she starts to speak but before she can get anything out she stops him. "You knew about him getting out and you didn't say anything?" He growls "No! I had no idea dom. he was paroled just paroled and he followed me to the club two weeks ago." "AND YOU DIDN'T TELL ME!" he thunders. "I didn't want you to get upset Dominic. I was gonna tell you." "When at your wedding?" 'What's that suppose to mean.' She thinks "Yeah Let I know you never officially broke up with him. That's why he calls you all the time. Is that what my money has been going to the past few years? Been going on his books? You been playing for a fool huh Letty?" This infuriates her "Playing you? What about your dirt Mr. Toretto?!.What about you fucking every racer bitch on the fuckin lot Dom? Playing you Dom? No, you played yourself!" Moving towards her Leon and Vince grab him. "So is it true? Did you go and visit him?. Did you give one of those vistis.you know, one of those fuck visits?" This sets her off, she lunges for him before anyone can grab her and starts hitting him everywhere. "LETTY GET OFF OF ME! STOP. I'M WARNING YOU NOW STOP!" With that he comes around to push her off and he hits her in her face. "Dom, you mutherfucker. Look what you did!" Mia says as she runs to a crying Letty on the floor. Falling to the floor he goes to grab Letty but she quickly shoves him away. "Letty baby I'm so sorry. I didn't mean to hit you" "Stay tha fuck away from me Dominic" she says in between sobs. Backing away he gets up and stalks to the door. Slamming it behind him before he drives off into the night.
THE NEXT MORNING Dom walks up the steps to the entrance of his house to see bags packed on the porch. Running in the house he yells "LETTY! WHAT THA FUCK ARE YOU DOING I'M NOT GOING ANYWHERE! THIS IS MY HOUSE!!" Letty comes down the stairs with a purplish bruise over her right eye. "I know Dominic, that's why me and Dom jr. are leaving." "WHAT?!" "You heard me Dom" she says calmly with jr. on her hip. "You're not going anywhere. You or my son." "It's not up to you Dom. You should of thought about that before you laid your hands on me" she says as she moves towards the door he quickly stands in front of her. "Letty stop acting crazy. Now just." "No Dom..I'm leaving. I need to cool off and it has to take more time than just a day." With tears in her eyes she holds jr. closer. "Fine then, leave. Fuck you!" "FUCK ME DOM?! AFTER ALL THA SHIT I'VE BEEN THROUGH WITH YOU? FUCK ME?" She starts to cry causing jr. to cry now. He instantly regrets his words. "Letty ...." "I'll be at my mom's dom." As she leaves out of the house jr. starts to cry and reach for Dom. "I want my daddy!" Letty is faintly heard saying "SSHH baby I know. I want him too" She drives off leaving Dom in the same places she left him. 'But you have me letty, I'm right here'
