"Chill chica y'all are already dating," She said as she flipped through yet another car magazine.

"I can't help it esa, its our first date,"

"Everything's gonne be fine," She said standing up, and placing her hands on my shoulders. "Now sit, cause you're making me tired pacing back, and forth like that."

"I don't see how you're sitting their so calm, isn't Jesse taking you somewhere."

"Yea, were going  to check out this car show, and grab some grub," She said shrugging.

"You wearing that?" I asked looking at her  fav pair of jeans , wallet chain, and play boy shirt.

"Yea what would I wear?" She asked rolling her eyes.

"Something nicer."

"Pssh, Jess Likes me for me esa, he'd think I had gone loca, if  I got dressed up."

"Yea that's true, " I said nodding.

Knock KNock.

"I will never understand you ," She said rolling her eyes. "Y'all share a fricking room," She said opening the door.

"V baby! "

"Sup Lad, my date ready?" He asked trying to peek in .

"Yea, " I said moving back.

"You look good," He said smiling at my "little black dress".

"One down one to go," I said plopping back down on their bed.

"Lad you in there?" Jesse said knocking .

"Yea come on in," I said turning the page.

"You ready?" he said looking down at me.

"Ya," I said tossing the book on their bed, and getting up.

" I like the threads." he said as we walked out the house.

"This is really nice V, thank you ," I said smiling up at him as he pulled out my chair.

"You're made for places like this Leighanne," he said smiling . I loved it when he called me by my real name. It was something he only did when it was just us two, or lad and jesse.

"So what have you been up to since we last saw each other?"

"Graduated college, worked on cars, went to military school."

"Really?"

"Yea, that's where I got all these tatoos."

"Wow  V," i said all his army gear making more since now.

"How old were you?"

"It was around the time Dom went away," he said not wanting to think about that time.

"What about you?"

"Me, and L graduated high school, and went to college in LA."

"What's your major?"

"I'm doing Business and, and she's doing business management, that way we can run our own business together. "

"What kind?"

"Its a toss up between a clothing place, or a car one." I said smiling.

" So what are we L, cause I really like you," He said coughing the last part out.

"What do you want us to be?"

"Exclusive," he said smiling, suprising me with his choice of wording.

"Then that's what we'll be," I said leaning over to kiss him.



WE left that night after I had one to many margaritsa ( heheh) that V had bought.

"Whoa girly," V said laughing as I leaned against him.

"V i think I had too much to drink," I said in a baby voice.

"I know you did ," He said laughing as he scooped me up

"I don't want to go home yet."

"I know a place," he said placing me in the passenger seat.
