Chapter 6
As Dominic entered the house the phone began to ring. He threw his keys down on the table and paused with his hand on the receiver. He wanted desperately for it to be Gracie but at the same time he did not. He didn't know what to say to her. Finally he sighed and picked up the phone.
"Hello?" Dominic called into the empty space.
"Hello, is this Mr. Dominic Toretto?" the voice on the other end asked.
"Yes..."Dominic trailed off.
"This is Dr. Gafeeri at Angel Memorial. You are the fiancé of Gracie Tallance correct?" The voice asked him.
"Yes doctor I am..." Dominic stated starting to get worried. Why was a hospital calling about Gracie.
"We need you to come pick up Ms. Tallance, she was brought in early this morning intoxicated and she needed to have her stomach pumped." The doctor told Dominic.
He couldn't believe it. Gracie started drinking again. She hadn't touched the stuff in three years, she was doing so good. She had promised him a long time ago that she wasn't going to drink again until she legally could and then told him another time that she didn't think she would ever drink again. Maybe she had been drinking all along without anyone else knowing it? Was she a closet drinker? He didn't think he even knew her anymore. First she walked out on him telling him she didn't think that she loved him anymore and then she had her stomach pumped at the hospital.
"I'll be right down doctor." Dominic said hanging up the phone.
Leon and Jesse entered the doorway at this moment.
"What's going on man?" Jesse asked.
"Gracie started drinking again. Someone brought her to Angel Memorial this morning to have her stomach pumped." Dominic said with anger in his voice as he walked out and shut the door behind him.
"I cant believe she even touched the stuff again!" Jesse said after Dominic had left.
"I cant believe a lot of the stuff that's going on lately man." Leon said to him.
*At Angel Memorial*
"I'm Dominic Toretto and I'm here to pick up Gracie Tallance." Dominic said to the receptionist at the desk.
"Relation?" The woman asked.
"Fiancé." He answered her with a tone of annoyance. He wasn't sure whether what he told her was true or not anymore.
"She's right down the hall in 201." The receptionist told him pointing down the hall.
Dominic slowly made his way down the hall. He peeked around the door into the room where Gracie was. She was silently sobbing to herself and her mascara was running down her face giving her eyes like a raccoons. She looked up and saw Dominic standing in the doorway.
"Look at him. I've hurt him so much and all he ever did was love me." Gracie thought to herself. When she saw the pain in Dominic's eyes she stopped crying and looked away. She was completely disgusted with herself. She ran out on him with his daughter, called him to have him come get his daughter, and then got completely trashed and the next thing she knew she was in the hospital having charcoal pumped down her throat. She felt something soft rubbing at her face and looked up to see Dominic wiping away the mascara with a cloth.
He didn't say anything, and neither did she. He just took her hand, lead her out of the hospital and to the car. The entire way home not a word was said. Gracie leaned her head against the window and looked up at the brightly shining afternoon sun. She closed her eyes and remembered when she was 15 and on the beach with Jesse. She knew that she loved Dominic but she wanted more than anything to fight the feelings. That's exactly what was happening to her now. She was fighting the way she felt, because she was scared. She did love him, she knew it now. Gracie smiled to herself as she thought about it. At this time she also thought about her car, but decided that she and Dominic would pick it up later.
When they got home Dominic didn't say a word to her and just went upstairs to their room. Gracie was in tow. She closed the door behind them and looked at Dominic who was standing with his back to her facing the bed. Gracie walked up behind him and wrapped her arms around his waist. He took his hands and rubbed them against hers.
"I'm sorry." She told him.
