Chapter 5
Dom's Domain
"Leon where could they be? The hospital say Letty was released hours ago and Mia stormed off after Brian left."
"Don't have a clue Dom, I think they are probably just both cooling off somewhere before they come home."
"It's been hours Leon."
"I know Dom, did you see how pissed Mia was when she left? We don't even know how Letty is because no one stopped in to check on her."
"Shit, with Jesse and Brian I forgot about her."
"Exactly, the way I see it is your in deep shit with both of them, so if and when they show up you better look sorry for all the hell you've put them through."
"I put them through hell?"
"Yes, you did Letty got her face smashed up following your lead and Mia is probably nursing a broken heart right about now."
"Broken heart my ass Leon, she doesn't know anything about being in love."
"That's exactly my point Dom, you've never given her a real chance to find out. You could tell that Mia was interested in Brian from the moment she saw him but she held back because of you. He was the first guy you ever let get close to your sister, hell you wouldn't even let Vince near her and you've know him since third grade. As soon as she saw that he had your unspoken approval she gave him her heart."
"Shit, Letty was right. Letty always told me I was being to over protective, but I didn't want her to get hurt again. I know she blames herself for our mom leaving, although I don't know why she would think it was her fault."
"Dom the best thing right now is to get some sleep so you'll be able to talk to them when they come home. Having another argument right now won't solve anything."
"Yeah, you're right Leon. Want to stay and watch the fight? I'll go grab us some beers."
"Sure."

Leon
I watched Dom head towards the kitchen and I shook my head. He had know clue what he was in for when the women returned home. I just hoped that for his sake they wouldn't arrive at the same time. My phone began to ring as Dom set the beer on the table in front of me. I looked at the readout and shook my head before answering it.
"Speak"
"Leon it's us, we're okay."
"Where are you?"
"That's none of your business buddy."
"Are you drunk?"
"Sort of."
"Is Letty drunk too?"
I saw Dom go to grab the phone and I stood up and shook my head.
"Are you driving?"
"Nope."
"So you've got a room somewhere?"
"Nice try Leon but I'm not that drunk. I've talked to long already and we're going to miss our movie. We'll see you when we decided to come home. Bye"
I returned to my original seat, looked at Dom, and laughed.
"What the hell is so funny Leon?"
"You are in deep shit. Letty and Mia are somewhere together drunk off their asses."
"Did they say where they were?"
"Nope, but Mia mentioned that she had to go because they were going to miss their movie."
"Did they say when they were coming home?"
"Yeah, when they decide too."
"Shit, I'm not sure if I could handle them both at once. They're both so fucking stubborn."
I couldn't help but laugh at the opening Dom left me.
"Yeah, you're right. Might have to do with the company they keep."
