Chapter 6: cars, memories and a whole lot more
I meet Dom at his house, exactly like he had told me too.all those years of taking orders does this to you.you now follow orders without giving it a second thought which is kinda bad.then I saluted him which was even worse.
" you beat me" he told me
" well I didn't have to stop for gas" I said
" good point, you ready?" he asked me " you have everything that you need to get into the storage facility? Keys? Id?"
" yes, it's an abandoned warehouse that my father used to own. I was planning to convert in into a garage and some place for me to live but I don't have the time or money right now so it's stays the way it came" I said
" well that's cool.it's huge then?" he asked
" pretty much" I said and gave him directions
Back at the garage
" Jesse have you found anything on her yet" Letty asked impatiently she didn't like it that Dom had run off to help her, get her stuff out of storage.
" yea well she's telling the truth about her parent's death, and her did die of a drug overdose. She was in jail.but then disappeared to a government run facility where four years later she gained parole. " Jesse reported
" what did she do in those four years" Letty asked curious to what this new chick was about.
" I don't know.it's been classified" Jesse answered
" is it a good thing that it's been classified?" Letty asked not sure
" well it gives us four years where we don't know what she's been doing. If what she told Dom about the program being Special Ops it makes sense that the program be classified" Jesse said trying to reassure Letty
" so how old is she?" Letty asked curious to her age
" she's 29" Jesse said kinda shocked
" she's 29...she don't look 29" Letty said
" well on her records it says that she was born in 1973.her brother died when she was 19. She was arrested when she was 24. and she got out less then 6 months ago. Her parent's died 7 and a half weeks ago" Jesse said as he read off the sheet
" wow, so she has not family left?" Letty asked
" nope her parent's were only children.she was their miracle child. She came late in their life" Jesse once again reported " and he brother didn't have any children and she has none either
At the warehouse
" I thought you said hugs.not gigantic" Dom said trying to start up conversation
" well I've only ever been here twice." I said " my brother used to used it as a place to go after he when on his binges
" so he was a drug user then?" Dom asked
" yes, he was stupid that way.he died of a drug over dose when I was nearly twenty." I said trying not to let emotion into my Voice
" I'm sorry Riley.so wait that means that you don't have an family left right?" Dom said doing the calculations in his head
" yea, my parent's were only children.and I was late in there life" I told him " come on let's go inside, my parent's also stored stuff here. It has 2 levels so when I planned to convert it, it would be prefect to live in.I could have one whole section just for a garage. I could have a numerous bedrooms.and a huge area for a living room.and separate tv and fun room. and exercise room and all sorts of things that I've always wanted" I told him
" wow your parent's let you enough furniture to start what you've always dreamed" Dom commented when he say the furniture piled up.
" yea, he comes the hard part trying to find my stuff in all this" I told him
" well I think I found your car."Dom said a pointed to about 4 cars covered" and while you were gone they had children
" nope it's my brother's racing car, my racing car, and SUV my dad gave me and my father's prize car. " I explained to him
" what's you dad's prized car?" Dom asked almost like a child in a candy store,.
" if I'm correct it's 1964 charger" I told him
" really.?" Dom asked not believing
" why you want to see it?" I asked and started searching for the right car, you could easily tell which one was the SUV and I knew the form of my baby like the back of my hand.
" sure why not" Dom answer
" bingo...found it" I yelled at him and I started to pull the cover off of it.
" wow.it's amazing.my dad had one just like it.last summer I destroyed it" Dom admitted
" you can have this one of you want, I personally don't like the car" I told him
" oh Riley no.I would never take your dad's favourite car" Dom said
" oh now I'm insulted what my dad's car is not good enough to match your dad's old car?" I asked him I knew that if I baited him long enough he would finally give in and take the car.
" I'm sorry.but if I take this car, you'll regret it later" Dom said
" I don't regret decisions I have made in the past because that exactly where they are. in the past" I told him
" I'll take the car under one condition" Dom bargained
" no conditions the cars, your I never really liked it" I told him anyway I knew I could have to eventually give into his one condition
" my condition is that you let my put you up, while I help you set up this place" Dom bargained
" no conditions the car's yours.anywayz I don't have any money to set this place up with." I pointed out
"you race and you will" Dom said
" good point" I said " fine I'll take your deal"
" good, now let's get what we came here to get" Dom said
" so when are you planning on picking up the car?" I asked him
" once this place is set up" Dom said
" well this place will never get set up if there's a car right where I want my living room to be" I pointed out to him
" fine I'll take it this week end" Dom said " so let's see you baby"
" okay" I said and slowly pulled the cover off my baby
" wow, you weren't kidding about the detailing.it's amazing.as soon as you start racing and winning everyone's going to want something like you design." Dom said
" I found some clothes that I think might fit and I found my collection of stuff to show Jesse the rest of the stuff I have to sort through before I can do anything with it." I reported to him
" I'll gas up your car, and put what you want to take with you in the trunk" Dom suggested " wait you have keys for this right
" yes" was my single response " if not my baby could be hot wired by her mechanic " I got a chuckle from Dom
" done" he said and got out of my way.
I opened the door right in front of my baby and drove right on through. then I stopped the car.got out when back inside and locked the door my baby had just come through then I walked to the door that both Dom and I had original come through When back outside and locked it.I didn't want anybody getting into the stuff that I had in there.
They drove off and meet back at the garage
" Jesse" I called
" yea" was the response I got from him
" I got my designs to show you" I told him and handed him my book of designs I have done and ones that I wanted to do. " and I have my baby so I can show you my work
" Riley" Letty asked " have you seen Dom?"
" he was right behind me when we left the warehouse, maybe he went home for something" I said
" ok, thanks" Letty said
" your designs remind me a lot of the designer RAS" Jesse said
" okay" I said trying to play it cool
" you copy his designs?" Letty butted in
" nope," I said " let me show you something" I walked over o my baby and motioned for them to follow.the I pointed to the three little letter on my left bumper "RAS"
" your RAS, I don't believe it" Jesse said getting all excited
" where's the printout of my background check?" I asked Jesse
" why" Jesse asked
" because I want to show you something.where is it?" I asked him
" right here" he said and he handed it to me
" okay look at my name" I instructed them
" Riley Annabelle Smith so" Letty said
" RAS" Jesse said and saw what I was talking about. " you really are RAS?"
" I guess so.I didn't know I was famous.how do you know about my designs?" I asked him
" your all over the web, and I saw one in person at one of the high proformace car shows " Jesse announced " can I have your autograph"
Dom took this time to walk in
" why would you want her autograph? "Dom asked kinda of suspicious
" she's RAS" Jesse said " now it makes sense"
" what makes sense?" Dom questioned
" why RAS wasn't seen or heard from for about four and half years" Jesse announced
I handed him the printout of my background check
" what's this?" Dom asked
" I've told you most of it.but it's my background check" I told him and walked out to my baby and got in and drove away
"what was that all about?" Dom asked
" did you know that she's 29?" Letty asked
" she is.wow she doesn't look like it" Dom said " you don't think she's who she claims to be do you?"
Both of them shook there head.
A/n so what will Dom do? Is Riley really RAS and who she's claims to be? Review and I might add more
I meet Dom at his house, exactly like he had told me too.all those years of taking orders does this to you.you now follow orders without giving it a second thought which is kinda bad.then I saluted him which was even worse.
