"Mia?" Letty whispered after a few minutes.
"Hmmm?"
"Can I stay with you in your room?" Letty asked, Mia looked down at her best friend. Letty had laid her head down on Mia's lap.
"Of course chica, of course." Mia answered stroking her hair. Mia had a feeling that this time Dom wasn't getting off easy. . .if at all.
"Mia?"
"Hmmm?"
"I'm in some trouble." Letty said, Mia knew she was now going to tell her about her night in the police station.
"What kind?" Mia asked, Letty sat up and looked Mia in the eyes.
"I killed someone."
~~~~
"You think I should go up there?" Dom asked, he was really worried now. Letty wasn't even close to herself and that scared him.
"No." All three guys answered at once glaring at Dom from their seats on the couch.
"You guys are mad at me?" Dom asked in shock. Jesse's hand covered his mouth in mock shock, Leon rolled his eyes and Vince just stared back at Dom.
"No shit?" Vince said sarcastically.
"What did I do?"
"What did she do?" Leon asked.
"Who Letty?" Dom asked.
"No Madonna." Jesse answered, Dom was starting to get really pissed off.
"Just leave her alone." Leon said, Dom didn't know what to say, he sat on the nearest chair and was quiet for a few minutes.
"Nothing." Dom whispered, the guys looked at him confused.
"She didn't ever do anything to me, and I screwed her over."
~~~~~
"You remember that summer I left?" Letty asked, Mia nodded she remembered. Letty and her had walked in on Dom and Johnny Tran's sister having sex, the next morning Letty was gone only leaving a note.
"I went to my cousins. . .I hung out with him, his girlfriend and best friend." Letty paused.
"I remember, you and his best friend had a thing." Mia said smiling, Letty nodded smiling a little. Mia remembered the picture she found of the four of them. The guy Michael was tall like Dom, muscles not big like Dom but definitely there, his hair spiky and all over the place and his smile was more like a mocking smirk. Letty's cousin Jason is Mia's dream guy, tall, dark and handsome but he was taken by Julie his girlfriend. She looked like one of the smart types, medium height, pretty with long light brown hair. Bitch.
"Not the point Mia!" Letty said scolding her best friend.
"Anyway it was a week before I was supposed to come back and we were really drunk. . .and. . .we went to Jason's house and there was already a party going for some reason. I went to the guest house with Julie for some quiet and we thought that the guys were right behind us. This guy David was totally in love with Julie had been since they were five, he wouldn't leave her alone, I tried to get him to stop touching her but he hit me and I got knocked out. When I came too it was only probably two minutes later he had Julie on the couch and was raping her. . .oh god Mia I was thinking I just hit him with one of Jason's baseball bats over and over." Letty stopped talking as tears streamed down her face. Mia was in shock.
"The guys came in and stopped me but it was too late, he was already dead. We were still so drunk and scared that we did the worst thing possible. . .we didn't tell anyone. We just took his body into the woods and buried him, Michael said it was the best thing to do, I guess him and Jason had given David some kind of drug. . .they said it would have eventually killed him I just killed him faster. He had raped Julie once before and she didn't tell anyone 'til a week earlier." Letty stopped again.
"Oh Let." Mia whispered, Mia always wondered why Letty had been meaner and bitchier than usual.
"The police somehow link it to us even though they don't even know he's dead." Letty said
"They linked you four to his disappearance?" Mia asked, Letty nodded.
"What happened at the station?" Mia asked when Letty didn't say anything.
"They just asked where I was and what I was doing. I just told them the story the four of us had agreed on. Mia I'm so scared." Letty said crying again.
"Let's get you to bed, and we'll talk in the morning." Mia said helping Letty stand up.
"Mia. . ." Letty started but Mia cut her off.
"I won't tell anyone." Mia answered, she already knew that, that's what Letty was going to ask.
"Thank you."

That next morning Dom answered the front door and smiled at who was on the other side.
"Morning Dom."
"Charlotte."
"I was wondering if you would go out to breakfast with me." Charlotte asked smiling as she held out her hand for him. Dom thought about it for a second before taking her hand and leaving with her. Vince just shook his head sadly for his best friend upstairs. She never deserved any of this.
