"Mia answer me." Dom tells her as Letty walks in with Leon, Vince and Jesse.
"Why are you back already?" Mia asks
"Here's some clothes" Letty ignores her "We just talked to Brian….. and Cristina."
Mia's eyes widen "You did?"
"Mia why is this a surprise, someone tell me what the hell is going on." Dom says
"Dom don't get worked up." Letty turns to him. "Mia you have to tell him, or he'll figure it out himself."
Mia hesitates "Maybe he's not-" Having a change of heart on the situation
"Mia if you don't I will." Letty says louder, she turns to the guys "Go downstairs and stay there until one of us gets you."
"Letty-" Leon protests
"I said go." Letty orders them
"I'm staying." Vince replies "You two go. Tell her Dom is all right and already acting like himself." He tells Jesse and Leon, they nod and leave.
"I'm getting impatient." Dom says crossly
"Dom, uh" Mia looks away
"Cristina went into insulin shock and Leon, Jesse and Vince had to bring her back here after she went home." Letty tells him
"So that means it happened last night." Dom states "And you all lied to me?"
"Dammit Dom you had just had a heart attack we couldn't go and tell you the one time you weren't there in 5 years Cristina got sick-"
"Just like I said she would if people don't watch out." Dom finishes
"You're right Dom, we can't do what you do. You take care of her." Vince tells him
"What else?" Dom looks at them knowingly
"She almost died last night." Mia says quietly "It was really bad the doctors said if Jesse hadn't found her when he did she would have died."
"She's awake now, talking and everything. She even cursed at the doctor. She wants to come to see you" Vince says
"But?"
"They don't think she's stable enough yet." Mia replies
"How could you not realize that she was sick?" Dom questions "Mia, and you lied to me. What if she had died last night would you have told me?"
"Dom-"
"Get me a doctor now." Dom cuts Mia off
"Why? Dom calm down." Letty tells him
"I'm going to see her." Dom replies
"You can't Dom, you need to rest. She'll come up here as soon as she can. You can't do anything stupid right now." Letty yells at him
"Dom she's right. Cristina will be here soon. If you're not all right, who's going to take care of her? Think about it all right?" Vince says firmly
Dom glares at him "Fine. But if I don't see her before dinner I'm going to her."
"I need to talk to you." Mia pulls Letty from the room.
"What?"
"We shouldn't have told him" Mia says
"What the hell are you talking about? You're the one that wanted to in the first place."
"If Cristina isn't allowed to come up here, Dom is really going to go to her."
"Cristina wont stay up there for long." Letty replies smiling "Should have heard her Mia, cursing like a mother. She's pissed they wont let her up to see Dom."
"You sure?"
"Positive." Letty assures her "Why don't you go and see her?"
"Let me change first." Mia goes into a bathroom taking the bag from Letty.
******************
"When can she see him?" Mia asks Dr. Thomas around lunchtime
"Not yet, your sister is lucky she's even awake right now." Dr. Thomas replies
"Listen to me, if Cristina doesn't go and see him. Dom is going to come down here, and no one is going to be able to stop him." Mia tells her
"He need to be smart about that." Dr. Milano says "He knows that can be dangerous."
"You tell him that." Mia challenges "He wont listen to anyone. Cristina will take it upon herself to go to him if you don't make it happen. I know my family, when their minds are made up you cannot change it."
"Mia calm down." Brian quiets her "I'll talk to them."
Mia walks away, to calm herself down. "I am going to strangle them"
"Who the doctors?" Letty laughs
"Them and Dom and Cristina." Mia sits down
"Well if it makes you feel any better, Dom got a lecture on what he can and can't do for a while. I think it was a little bit of a wake up call, he hadn't realized how serious it was until now."
"Yea, someone should make Cristina realize she's not doing so great either." Mia replies
Letty laughs "I think Dom will take care of that. He's already arranged for both of them to be released Friday. Then he has watch over Cristina the entire weekend."
"She going to go to school Monday?" Mia asks
"If Dom sees fit." Letty smiles "Things are a little like they used to, but Dom's not going to be able to do anything for a while. We got a shit load of work to cover him for. I don't think we realize how much Dom does around here."
"That's cause he takes almost everything onto himself." Mia looks up as Brian comes back over. "They're going to let us bring her up there. I think the nurses are getting tired of being cursed at. Leon and Jesse can't shut her up." He smiles
Mia shakes her head and follows Brian to Cristina's room. "I'll go tell Dom." Letty gets up.
"Hey sunshine." Brian jokes walking into her room
"You can leave unless you plan on telling me something I want to hear." Cristina replies
"See what I mean?" Brian turns to Mia "Actually we're going to take a field trip."
Cristina's face relaxes into a smile "Yea?"
"Yes, now would you please be civil to everyone around you?" Mia asks as a nurse wheels the wheelchair to Brian
"I'll take it from here thanks." Brian goes over to Cristina "Ready?"
"Yep." She replies as he picks her up and puts her in the chair. She waits as the nurse hooks the I.V. stand up to the chair with some other stuff.
"All right, you're all set." The nurse tells Brian.
"We'll meet you up there." Leon tells him
"OK." Brian wheels her out with Mia close by.
"Mia?" Cristina asks quietly as the doors to the elevator shut "Is Dom mad at me?"
"No, he's mad at us for not telling him last night."
"You didn't want to worry him?" Cristina glances at her
Mia sighs "No, he told the doctors if they didn't let you come up he was going to you, he's worried about you."
"But he's still mad. Everything that I did. And I knew I wasn't feeling good but I had left my bag in my car and I didn't have the strength to go downstairs. I thought I was going to die."
"He's not mad at you, I swear." Mia smoothes down her hair. "I promise"
"Yea." Cristina looks down at her hands.
Brian glances at Mia, she just shakes her head.
****************
"Dom." Mia walks into his room, Letty gets up and walks out.
"Where is she?"
"She think you're mad at her." Mia replies "She's outside. Dom are you mad at her?"
"Of course not. She should know that." Dom replies
"Well she doesn't, all right so make sure you tell her ok?" Mia tells him.
"Mia." Dom looks at her.
"I know Dom, you're right, you always were right, always will be." Mia half smiles "Don't laugh at me." She protests as he starts to laugh
"You worry too much Mia, but you're right I am always right." He keeps laughing
"You're lucky you're in that bed you know that? Otherwise…."
"Otherwise what?"
"Otherwise I'd kick your ass." Mia replies "I'm glad you're all right Dom, things wouldn't be the way they are if it wasn't for you."
"Yea….thanks Mia." Dom holds out his arms and Mia gives him a hug.
"I'll go get Cristina." Mia goes out of the room.
More to come, please R&R thanks.
