14. Home for good?

Dom had been looking at the rest of the team greeting Letty through the kitchen window. He had mixed feelings about seeing Letty again he wanted to kiss her and kill her at the same time. The door opened and Letty entered the kitchen. She looked even more beautiful than he remembered standing there in her torn jeans and a red top, her hair in a messy pony tail. She always looked classy, even if she never tried to. There was something different about Letty, she was nothing like the other cheap racer skanks. That was just one thing that attracted him to her, she really had substance. Letty watched Dom standing in front of her, he was beautiful, not just on the outside. Through his eyes she could see straight to his soul. All the other girls only saw his sexy body, Letty saw all of him and loved all of him. She could see he was still hurting. Neither of them said a word, they just looked at each other. Finally Letty couldn't take it no more, tears started rolling down her cheeks.

"Dominic, I'm home now...do you want me to leave?" She asked him in a soft voice. If he didn't want her around, she would leave, she owed him that.

"Letty. I have nothing to say to you anymore." He said in a harsh, cold voice.

"I understand completely." Letty whispered and looked down. She couldn't bare to look in his big brown eyes. They were still full of pain, pain that she had caused. Letty turned around, she was going to get some of her stuff from their room and then leave for good. This was no longer her home and it was all her own fault. When she came back down Dom was standing in the hall.

"Do you really hate me that much Dom?" She asked before she opened the front door. Dom didn't answer her, he simlpy looked away.

"I could have died in Mexico...would you even have cared?" She asked as she felt hot tears run down her face.

Dom still didn't answer her. She took that as a no. He wouldn't cry for her if she died. The pain was so deep she felt like she couldn't breathe. She ran out the door and got in her car, she was crying so hard that her whole body was shaking.

After she left the house Dom realised that he really could have lost Letty for ever. The thought was too much for him to bare. Sure she had hurt him deeply, but he still loved her and there was no point in denying that. Letty was genuinly sorry for betraying him, she had at least tried to come back to him, he knew he had to swallow his pride or he might never see Letty again. She had suffered enough. Besides, he had put her through a lot of shit himself during their years together. He rushed after her to her car screaming her name on the top of his lungs. He opened the car door and pulled her out. Letty was still shakeing and sobbing.

"Letty, Letty, Letty!" Dom cried while he was holding her in his arms. Her body was all numb, she was too shocked and weak to move at all. Dom kept on saying her name and kissing her hair as they sat on the drive way. In a way he had always known what their relationship meant to Letty, but at this moment all his doubts about her feelings for him were washed away. He finally picked her up and carried her inside and up to their bedroom.

"Baby, it's gonna be all right. I know you're sorry, I know you still love me and God knows I love you too." He said as he gently laid Letty on the bed and tucked her in under the covers. "Forgive me Letty for not seeing how much I hurt you when I betrayed you over and over again. I should have understood why you couldn't trust me that night at the races when you saw me with that girl... from now on I'm gonna spend every minute proving to you that you can trust me. You really can." Dom knew that he had given her so many reasons not to trust him in the past. He had broken a thousand promises and failed to see the hurt in Letty's eyes every time she yelled at him for being a jerk. How had he managed not to see, that all her bitching and sarcasm about him messing up, was really her way of saying that her heart was breaking.

Letty was so relieved, so happy she couldn't stop crying. Dom stroked her hair and kissed her face until she fell asleep to exhausted to think about anything but the fact that she was home. Back in Dom's arms. Nothing could hurt her now. She was safe. She was happy.

Dom watched her fall asleep. She looked just like an angel, he thought, no... correction: she was an angel. God, how much she must have suffered when they were apart. At this moment Dom couldn't feel anything but love for her as she slept peacefully in their bed again. He went out and got Letty's bag from her car and unpacked it. He was never going to let her leave again. He would take care of her and treat her so good, give her everything she needed.
