Chapter 10
A Secret Revealed and True Love
I followed Lia and was confused when she pulled into a convenience store parking lot. She parked her SUV, came over, and got into the passenger side of my car. I looked at her and she shook her head.
"You didn't think I was going in that did you?"
"So why didn't we just take my car then?"
"I didn't feel like hearing Lance give me a lecture about not behaving like a responsible adult."
I stopped for a red light and glanced over at her. She had taken off her first layer of clothes revealing her standard race night wear.
"Mo, I want to talk to you about Lance."
"Okay, he seems like a nice guy."
"He's not, Mo. Trust me don't get involved with him."
"That reminds me, when you were talking about that lawyer you knew he gave you evil look."
"It was nothing he thought I was going to revel a family secret."
"Every family has its share of secrets. How bad can it be?"
"Mo, Nicholas isn't Lee's. I was pregnant when I got married. After he was born we used this lawyer so that Lee could adopt him without the birth father knowing."
"Well that certainly clears some things up, do you know who the father is?"
"Yes, he was a business associate of Johnny's but things went sour. He was my first; I was drunk at a party because Johnny and I had an argument over something stupid. I saw him there and in my drunken stupor figured that sleeping with him was a great way to get back at my brother."
I sat there silently not knowing what to say to her.
"What about Lee do you love him?"
"I love him but I know he wasn't the one. He makes me happy though and more importantly he treats Nicholas like he was his own."
Meanwhile at the Toretto Residence
"Mia are you sure you want to stay home?"
"Yes Dom, just go. I'll be fine I promise."
"I just don't like leaving you alone after all that has happened."
"Dom, I'm not alone Leon will be around if I need anything. Now go you and Letty need this trip."
"Your right we do. Now remember if the cops show up you and Leon haven't seen us since the afternoon of Race Wars."
"I know Dom, you've told me that a hundred times already."
Mia watched as Dom walked out the door, hopped into the car with Letty and drove off. She slowly counted to sixty before running to the phone to call Brian.

Brian
I was sitting waiting for Dom and Letty to leave. Letty was already in the car and Dom was in the door talking to Mia. Finally he left and drove off; I waited a minute before walking up to the house.
I was on the front steps when my phone rang.
"Yeah."
"Brian, its Mia. Dom and Letty just left for a vacation can you get here?"
"Sure can I'll be there in a bit."
I laughed as I hung up the phone.

Mia
I hung up with Brian and quickly pulled my hair out of its ponytail and pulled off the dress I was wearing. Letty had loaned me one of her favorite pairs of short shorts and I paired it with a nearly see through tank top. Then there was a knock on the door.
"Shit!"
Please don't let it be Dom, the police or Leon. I opened the door and saw Brian standing there. His eyes widened when he saw my outfit.
"New look?"
"Maybe, do you like it."
He pulled me to him and kissed me roughly. I was shocked at first but my body responded for me. My hands made their way up his back pulling off his shirt as he walked me backwards to the couch. As soon as the shirt hit the floor, my hands were going to work on his pants. I couldn't believe that I was being so aggressive. Brian's lips had moved down my neck as his hands slipped the straps of my shirt down my arms. I arched my back giving him better access to my chest. I was able to get my hand down his pants just as his mouth closed over one of my nipples drawing a low growl from me. I looked up shocked and so did Brian.
"Mia, I think you should hang around Letty more often."
I knew he was joking. I could see it in his eyes, for some reason I wanted to tease him. I stepped back away from him and started to pull the straps of my top up.
"Shit, Mia I didn't mean it like that."
"How did you mean it then?"
I kept pulling the straps up and pulled the top over my head. I stood there watching him as I slowly undid the top button on my shorts. I could have sworn I saw his breath catch. I slowly inched the zipper down and then slipped them off completely.
"So, you never answered my question baby."
"Fuck Mia, I forgot how beautiful you were. I love you Mia. I resigned from the force this morning because I couldn't hurt you."
I was shocked, I mean he was jobless but I had just assumed that he had been fired because of everything that had happened. I could feel myself crying, I never thought that someone would put my feelings ahead of everything in their lives.
"Baby, why are you crying?"
"I'm crying because I love you too and I don't want to lose you or Dom ever again."
"Nobody is going to take Dom away from you, they don't have enough evidence against him baby."
He pulled me to him and I felt his bare skin against my chest, my nipples tightened painful and I rolled my hips against him.
"Brian, I need you."
"Do you want to go upstairs?"
"No, I can't wait that long."
I pulled him over to the couch and on top of me with his belt loops.
