Ch. 7 A week later, Letty ran down the stairs in a hurry.
"Dom! Dom!" Shit, where was he?!
She frantically ran to the back door and saw Mia.
"Mia! Where's Dom?"
"Uh.I dunno, check around front, he--" Mia stopped and stared at Letty's hand, "Is that what I think it is?!"
"I'll tell you about it later!"
Letty rounded the corner. Finally! Dom was under the hood of a car.
"Dominic! Dom, Dom, Dom!" She was like a little kid, hopping around like she had a new toy. Dominic stood, straightening his back and looked at her, slightly annoyed,
"What?!?"
Vince walked up beside him.
"Uh.could we talk over there?" She grabbed his wrist and walked to the middle of the yard. Letty beamed with pride, "Look--" she held up a pregnancy test.it was positive. Dom just stared at it.
"Are you all right?"
"Are you kidding?!? We're gonna have a baby!"
Letty jumped into his arms and kissed him wildly. She jumped down and ran to the back of the house.
"Where are you going?"
"I gotta tell Mia!"
Dom smiled and walked back to the car.
"What was that all about?" Vince asked.
"We're having a baby." He smiled from ear to ear.
"Congratulations, man! That's great!" Next thing they knew screams of excitement come from the backyard.

That night, they all went out to the races. Being the last to know about the pregnancy, Brian hovered and fussed over Letty constantly.
"Brian! I'm ok! Go race!" she laughed.
"But when are you going to do see a doctor?"
"Next week, ok? Now go!"
Reluctantly, Brian turned and walked away. Letty walked over to Vince,
"Don't play stupid."
Vince chuckled, "How you holdin up?"
"Damn! What's with everybody?! I'm fine.really."
Arms wrapped around her whole body, making her jump. Dom leaned over her shoulder and kissed her.
"Let's go check out Brian's race."
They walked over and watched Mia raise the flag and drop it. They were off; Brian pulled ahead of everybody and won the race. Hours later, the team pulled out with $500 and headed home.
