I was practically walking on air that day after work. I couldn't wait to
see Vince again, and meet his friends. I wanted to make a good impression,
because I got the feeling this was a part of some test. If I didn't pass it
I would be gone. I'm not sure what it is about him that attracts me. He
just has this aura of mystery around him, like he has a secret he's never
shared with anyone.
Standing in front of my closet I paced back in forth in my soft white robe with pink, and red hearts. What in the world should I wear, I wanted to look nice, but not to dressy. After standing there awhile I decided in a cute knee length blue jean skirt that was frayed around the waist, and a black baby tee that said (yes they're real) across the front. It was cute, but with a little attitude. Slipping on a black bracelet to go with the shirt, and slipped on a pair of strappy black sandals with a low heel. Looking at the clock that said 5:15 I rushed out the door to my car. Following the directions Vince had given me early I arrived at his house at 5:30 on the dot.
Stepping out I hit my alarm, and walked up to he door to knock. A man I'd never seen before answered.
"Hi, you must be Leon," I said sticking out my hand.
"Umm yea… Brandy?" He said shaking my hand like he was unsure of what to do.
"Nice to met you ."
"Come in V will be down in a minute." " V man , your girls here!" he yelled walking over to the bottom of the stairs.
"Aight, I'm coming." He said walking down the stairs a few minutes later.
"Hey babe… so they're actually real , I have to admit I was wondering the other day."
"Vincent!" I said blushing. Most guys noticed her size 36 c's first , so why not have fun with it.
"I'm just kiddin ya doll," He said wrapping his arm around my neck, and heading out.
"Are we just going to walk?" She asked with a slightly southern twang.
"Yea its right up the street… holy shit! Is that your car?" Vince asked stopping as he spotted the aquamarine car parked in the front of his house.
"The mx-7 yea, it was like my dream car, why is something wrong?"
V's pov
Seeing that car again after so long sent a chill up my spine. It reminded me of the old days, before O'connor, when we were the top dogs. God I miss those days so much sometimes.
"You wanna have a look in it?" She asked innocently hitting the alarm button.
"Yea," I said nodding, and leading her toward the car. As I got closer I noticed the dark blue swirls on the side. She had really shocked me, I was expecting her to have a Corolla, or a Civic something reliable, and long lasting. The inside was all tan interior, and to my surprise a manual.
"You drive a stick?"
"What can I say I like to be in complete control?" She said smiling almost suggestively. I must have read her wrong though… right? I asked myself
I think me, and her will get along just fine, there is so much more to her than meets the eyes.
"Sweet ride, " I said as we headed down the street. Though Leon hadn't said anything I'd seen his face pale when he saw the car. The team was either going to hate her…. or if I was really lucky, love her.
"V," She said quietly tugging on my tank as we stood outside the door.
"Yea?" I asked turning to look down on her.
"What if they don't like me?" she asked her eyes sad, and face frowning.
"Don't worry Brandy, just be yourself, they'll love you ," thinking about it for a second I said just before the door opened I added" And if they don't I'll kick their ass." She laughed at me, and I was relieved to see her smile.
"Hey V," Letty said as she looked Brandy over.
"Who's your friend?" She said letting us in.
"This is Brandy, Brandy this is Letty."
"HI," Brandy said smiling , and holding out her manicured hand.
"How you living?" Letty said smirking, but shaking her hand none the less. Letty had a thing against prissy girls, one I never understood considering her, and Mia were so close. When she turned around we followed her through the house to the backyard where we were all grilling out.
" I want you to met my best friend now," I said taking her hand, and walking over to Dom.
"Hey Dom I got someone for you to met." Turning away from the grill I saw him look over my shoulder. Turing my head I smiled as I found Brandy practically hiding behind me .
"This is Brandy," I said taking her hand and guiding her to my side."
"Hello," She said shyly, as she gingerly placed her hand in his. One thing that struck me about her was how gentle she was. Even though she wasn't small, about 5'10, only a few inches shorter than me, she gave of this delicate aura, like she was something to be protected. Her slender frame , and soft spoken voice helped too.
"Hi, I'm Domnic toretto."
"Toretto? Do you have ," before she could finish the sentence I heard Mia squeal.
"B is that you ?"
"Oh My God Mia!" She said as they rushed over to hug each other.
"How?" I asked turning to Dom.
"Don't ask me that girl knows everyone," he said shrugging his shoulders. I could tell it put him at ease that Mia knew her.
"I haven't seen you since that class last semester, how are you?" Mia asked me after we pulled apart.
"I'm doing good, hanging in there, trying to get the hell out of school."
"I heard that ! So how do you know V?"
"He's my date," I said smiling shyly. I felt so much better knowing Mia. We'd become good friends in an required English course we took last semester. We'd had tons of projects to work on together. I had never met her family though besides her husband.
Speaking of Brian…
"Hey B" he said hugging me.
"Hey Bri what's going on man?"
"Not muc , just hanging out."
The rest of the night went smoothly with the exception of quite a few comments from Letty. For whatever reason she didn't care for me, and it was starting to become personal. For the most part I'm a calm person, and I try to get along with everyone, but I knew she was going to eventually cross the line. I really did like Ladie, and Jesse, I though they were a sweet couple who were incredibly in love. They're son J.V. was an absolute doll as well.
