SUMMARY: 2 months after the last truck heist, things are returning to normal, but can Dom and Letty make it through some new challenges.
DISCLAIMER: You recognize someone, I don't own them. I make no profit.
AN: Sorry it took so long. Stupid tests. Does anyone want to come and take my Econ class for me, I have to say that it is the most boring class. I want to send a Happy Birthday out to Doc, and I am putting this out just for you. I don't want any more torture with jello shots. Even saying it makes me sick. For everyone that doesn't know what I am talking about, don't ask. It's a long and painful story, one that I would like to forget, well I don't remember anyway. Anyway, on with the store, enjoy.

Chapter 4
Mia's POV
I walk into Letty and Dom's room. They have shared a room for the past eight years. It used to make me feel weird when they first started to share a room. Letty use to sleep in the room that Jessie in now living in, before he came to stay with us. The thought of my best friend sleeping in the same room as my brother was just a weird situation. Now however I don't mined. I know that they were ment for each other.
The bed was a tangled mess of sheets with Letty residing in the middle of it. Dom said that she had slept through the night but that she had tossed and turned all night, probably from the fever. I could tell that he didn't get any sleep last night.
Dom loves Letty. He might not always show it, but he really does love her. Showing emotions was never one of Dom's strong points. Today however, he went to work looking like shit.
Dom asked me to stay home today from the store to look after Letty and make sure that she stays in bed. What was he thinking; I couldn't make her stay in bed even if I wanted to. If Letty wants to get up or do something, I couldn't stop her.
Another of my worries was that Dom told me that Leon was going to run the store today, and that really scares me.
Looking at the form of Letty in the bed I set the glass of ice water that I had brought her on the nightstand. I hope that her fever is down, because I know how she doesn't like to go to the doctor.
I walk slowly trying unsuccessful to not make the floorboards to squeak. I don't want to wake Letty up.
"What, you leavin' without saying good morning to your friend?" Letty said. I jump around and put my hand to my heart. It has just doubled its pace.
"God Letty, you scared me. I thought you were asleep."
"I was, until Bigfoot made the floor creek," she teases.
"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to make so much noise. Go back to sleep. I brought you up a glass of ice water, set it on the side table if you want it," I say.
"Thanks girl. Hey, what time is it?"
"Well it isn't quite morning anymore. I think that it's around 1:00. You been sleeping all day and that is pretty hard to do in this house when the boys get up in the morning and make shit-loads of noise." I smile.
She looks at me with a frown on her brow. "Don't you have a job to be at?" she asks.
"Na, Dom's making Leon take care of the store today."
Her frown deepens and then she bursts into laughter. "Leon taking care of the store, you got to be shitting me. You're going to have one big mess when you get back, if the store is even still standing." She says. "I wish I was there now to see it."
I smile, "Your probably right, but you better hope that you are wrong because you're going to help me in the store for the rest of the week."
"Oh…no, I don't do that shit," Letty says, putting a degusted look on her face.
"Oh, come on, its not that bad. If I have to do it you have to, and if you don't help out in the store Dom's going to tie you to this bed until you get enough rest. Is that clear?" I say with a smirk on my face. "Dom's not going to let you work on any car until your well. If you do, its to bed with you and no races this weekend."
"I'm an adult, I can make decisions for myself. He can't stop me from going anywhere." She says.
I give her a 'just try it' look and she shuts up and puts a pout face on. "Well don't you look pathetic, your going to help me and your going to like it."
"You're a slave driver." She says.
"Well, your just lucky that your sick right now or you would be helping me clean up Leon's mess right this second, instead of on this little vacation." I say.
"Ya, I'm lucky," Letty mumbles.
"Hey, cheer up girl, you'll be up and causing trouble in no time."

Days passed by. Letty seemed to be getting better, but she stayed up in the store as Dom requested. She didn't mind it all that much, it gave her time to catch up on all the shit with Mia.
Friday came around and Brian was still putting the finishing touches on the Supra. The other guys were helping and Mia and Letty were up in the front laughing about something or other.
Dom wanted to talk to Letty, so he left the guys to their own device in the garage and headed up front.
