Chapter 18
Letty had always been the type of person, that if she wanted something- she'd get it. She wanted Dom, and she was DEFIANTLY going to get him. All she had to do was work her magic like she'd done many times before. Just when she was perfecting her plan, she saw Ashley's Acura pull up out of the corner of her eye.
"Great," She mumbled, seeing Dom perk up and come out from his office quickly.
"There you are." Letty heard him whisper.
"Did you miss me?" Ashley growled in his ear.
She could have thrown up all her breakfast. "Dom can you come here?" Letty asked.
She saw him kiss her softly and break away. "Yeah Letty?" He asked.
"Can you help me with this? I can't seem to get…"She said, putting her best foot forward. She bent over in front of him to "Point out" the lose piston rings. Her arms wouldn't quite reach.
"Ok, I'll get them." He said, reaching right over. She pushed her body close to his. Her best bet was to make Ashley so jealous, she couldn't stand it, but when she looked over Ashley was chatting happily with the guys.
"Doesn't it bother you that they flirt with her like and I mean she doesn't object?" She asked him.
He ignored her question and kept doing what he was doing.
"And doesn't it bother you that she wears all those skimpy clothes and prances around in front of them?"
He stood up and sighed, looking her in the eye. "What is your point?" He asked.
"My point is, I never did that. I never-ever sauntered around in front of these guys. I never flirted with them and they never flirted with me, because they knew I was your girl. I never provoked them!"
Dominic laughed. "Baby, what she's giving me, nobody has ever had that. I should know. I busted her."
Letty laughed, brushing her hair from her face. She got right up close to him and stood on her tiptoes. "You busted me too." She murmured. "Just remember, I was there for you through thick a thin, Dom."
"We need to talk." He said, pulling her away by her arm. By that time, they had caught Ashley's attention and she was watching keenly.
Letty laughed to herself and just let him drag her along.
"Yes Dom?" She asked, when they were in private.
He seemed to be furious. " What are you trying to pull?" He begged her through clenched teeth.
"What are you talking about?" She said, sweetly.
She could see his tightly clenched jawbone. "Don't act stupid. I see what you're trying to do!" He said, the grip he had on her arm had tightened.
"Your letting your imagination run wild these days."
He tried his best to remain calm. His grip loosening up, but he said nothing.
She laughed. "Look at you Dom. I can see it in your eyes. You don't want to get married. Not to her anyway. Can you look me in the eye and say you don't still love me?"
His eyes beat down on her at first, but he looked away. "Its over between me and you."
"That's not what I asked…." She stared up at him. Seeing fear and truth surface up.
"I love her." He whispered.
"That's not what I asked you either."
Letty had never in her life seen Dominic so weak, so speechless and still.
Since he wasn't talking, and not looking him in the eye. She did what she felt was absolutely necessary. She put her hand on the back of his head and forcefully pulled his lips to hers. At first he tried to pull back, then he didn't fight it. She knew that he was feeling that exact same thing that she was—fireworks.

Mia was distressed. She seeing some numbers that she'd never saw before.
"What?" She asked herself. After fumbling with the numbers for about 20 mintues. Then she slammed the clipboard down and stood up to stretch. She had no idea what to do, what to write, or anything. 'Of Course Dom will know-Duh' She told herself. She walked outside the restaurant and right next door to the garage.
"Guys, were's Dom?" She asked. Her eyes darted across the room at the blank faces as if maybe there was something to hide.
She laughed seeing Ashley's car. "Oh, well I'm sure where ever Ashley is Dominic is somewhere in toe." She said, just about to turn around.
"Nope, not this time." Ashley stated, rolling from under a Nissan RX4.
Mia's eyebrows shot up. "Oh…" She said, turning around. That was weird. It was usually if she was there, Dom was right there with her.
"Dom?" Mia called into the garage. "Dom?" She repeated.
She walked through the store and into his office. She opened a random door and Her breath caught.
"Uh…" She murmured. Seeing Dom and Letty in a very compromising position. She didn't know what to say. Ashley. Dominic Fiancé of course was almost right outside the door.
"Mia," Dom whispered. He looked so stupid, so caught up, so lost.
Mia looked into the dark eyes of her brother, furious. How could a guy be a lame as him? She shook her head.
"So whats this? A new love connection?" Mai spat. She couldn't let this go on. He really needed to make up his fucking mind.
"Its not what you think! I mean, don't tell Ashley!" He stammered.
Mia hand her hands on her hips looking at the seen. She had never in her life thought of Letty as a conniving Bitch—until now of course.
"Letty, what in the hell do you think your doing?" She asked.
Letty opened her mouth to speak up on the situation, but Mia kept talking.
"He is getting married! You should be ashamed at yourself!" She exclaimed, loudly, but not loud enough for anybody but him or her to hear.
"Mia, don't you understand. Dom and me have a connection. She was just an obstacle. We're over her. Right Dom?" Letty asked, turning to see Dom's reaction.
He stood silent and ashamed as the two ladies looked at him.
"No he's not Letty. He loves her! If he didn't, he wouldn't have asked her to marry him! Don't you understand? You can't fuck around with love?"
"No! He loves me other wise he wouldn't be in here with me right now. He'd be with her!"
On that note, Dom pushed past the both of them and walked out. Mia shook her head.
"I hope you're getting something out of this." Mia said. She opened the door, walked out and slammed it behind her. Leaving Letty behind to think exactly what the hell she was doing.
"Dom!" Mia said, catching up with him.
He turned around. And looked at her, then he glanced down.
"You to talk to her. Make up your mind. And Defiantly think before you say anything, but you need to talk to her." Mia told him.
"Yeah, that's where I'm going." He said, with his head hanging low. He began to once again walk-away. But Mia grabbed him by the arm.
"I hope know you what your doing."
"I do too."
