Chapter 5
Dom stretched out in his chair, contentedly. "That's was great again Mia..." Dom said with a smug smile that widened as it passed over Diana. He's slowly transformed from petulant andpossessive, to smug... and possessive. It was his house. His home. He was in control of everyone inside... his house.
Like his Letty, whom he scooped onto his lap as she passed by him. He was surprised by her lack of chastizing and complaint's about being treated like, well... anything remotely female-like. He waited for her to claim something like 'Do you treat all your mechanics like this?' but she reminded contentedly silent.
So Dom took the oppurtunity to hold her tight, run his hands over her soft, familar curves, and smell her natural... clean smelling hair. No over-powering smell of Apples, or Stawberry's... or roses wafting across a summer breeze, just beautiful clean shiny Letty hair.
Letty'd been more like this since she'd moved in the week before. She'd just seemed to settle somewhat. She wasn't so much the tough as nails, self-protective fire-starter, that she had used to be. Although she still had ALL those traits... she just... didn't seem to need to use them on Dom as much as she used to. And admittedly... Dom did enjoy waking up beside her, every morning.
Maybe Diana's visit hadn't been a complete waste of time. It had prompted Letty to finally take up his offer and make it offical and move in with him, which wouldn't have happened if she hadn't had no where else to go.
Dom's smile widened as the other's started to notice that he and Letty were all snuggly. That's when they started getting bagged out.
"Ohh no they're at it again." Jesse complained.
"You should have seen them yesterday! I had to chase them up to their room."
"Mia! Don't make us start on your boyfriends." Vince pointed out.
"I wish I could have seen that."
"Shut up Leon. You pig."
"Sorry Let." Leon commented meekly.
"I can't believe you were acting like this at work the other day. Very un-professional." Mia declared, hiding a smirk.
"I can't believe he act like this at all."
Everyone at the table went silent all turning their gaze on Diana, who's lip was curled very slightly in disgust, as she glared at Dom, Letty not included in either her comment or her disgust.
Dom's eye's narrowed slightly, and his hands got possessive once more. Repling to Diana's glare with a smirk of his own, even if his eye's made the obvious declaration, that the only reason she was still here was because she was Letty's cousin.
"Score one for Diana!" Leon claimed suddenly leaning back, in his chair beside the New York to grin, as appeallingly as possible, slipping an arm around the back of Diana's chair, "I want Diana on my team." Leon joked again.
Diana turned her glare to a scowl, as she passed it on to Leon and his far to friendly arm. Quickly the group went back to talking about tweleve different things at once. That gave Diana the oppurtunity to slide her chair back and stand, getting away from Leon's hand as she picked up her plate and washed it off in the sink.
"You don't have to do that..." Mia pointed out to Diana was a slight smile. "I'll do all the dishes later." Mia chirped, as she leant back against the counter, sipping a coffee, as opposed to the Corona's scattered across the table.
"I can pull my own weight." Diana declared gruffily, deciding she really wasn't fitting in here, and as soon as she could... she was going to back to New York. Even if she couldn't train with Hector anymore.
After his stroke... he wasn't really much use as a trainer. But he had contacts. He'd organized for her to train with a well-respected trainer in a Gym here in L.A. but Diana wasn't so sure she wanted any of the things she had run to L.A. for anymore.
She didn't know if she wanted to live with her aunt. To be fussed upon all the time. Treated like some long lost relative... coodled and treated special because her mom died. She DID want to get better at boxing. But she didn't know if she wanted to do without Hector around. She wasn't so sure if breaking up with Adrian had been the right decision. Even with his jealousy. He had been trying, maybe she could have giving him more of a chance... instead of skipping the state. And she wasn't sure if she wanted to know Letty, anymore. All her friends... they were all loser's, thugs and try-hards... she had hated people exactly like them in high-school. Hadn't had any time for them. And she didn't have any time for these losers.
Everything was so un-familar.
Maybe things would have been better in New York. With Adrian's Jealousy, and her father's drinking, Hector's stroke, the limbo that her Boxing career exsisted in... it was all familar. She had handled it all before she'd come to L.A. Maybe it would just be easier to go back to doing what she knew then trying to make it out here, having to start again with everything. With only her Aunt and Cousin as her links to the world of L.A.
Diana rested her plate in the drainer, her mind whirling with confusion, as she mumbled some excuse and headed out of the kitchen, out of the front door... to stand out on the front stairs... sticking her hands in the pockets of her pants, looking out at the night sky... wishing someone would give her, the answer's she needed.
