DISCLAIMER: Again I only own Crimson, Violet, Summer, Damon, Ebony, Asher, and of course Serena.

I also want to say thank you to the ones who reviewed. I really appreciate the feedback. Please continue with it.

She blinked at him, not believing his words. "Excuse me?" she asked, wondering if she heard him right. He couldn't have said she could race tonight. Not Dom. He was the one that always said no when it came to her street racing. Now he was saying yes.

"You heard me, you're racing tonight," he told her, not even cracking a smile to show he was kidding.

Serena looked at Leon and Vince, wondering if they had known about it, but they had the same dumbstruck look on their face, their mouths hung open in disbelief.

"You're letting her what?" they both cried in unison.

"Are you people deaf? I said Serena is racing tonight," Dom said slower, sounding out each word.

"You're serious," Serena asked, making sure it wasn't a cruel joke.

He nodded. "You deserve it, diamond. I'm letting you race tonight. I've realized some things with the help of another," he paused glancing at Letty who smiled back. "And with that help I found out that some things are better left in the past and I can't shelter you forever from this. So you're takin' my place tonight."

She giggled with glee and practically jumped into her brother's arms, hugging him fiercely.

"Thank you, thank you, thank you," she chanted kissing him. She set her feet back on the floor. "I promise I won't disappoint you. I'm gonna make you proud."

"Serena, win or lose, I'll be proud of you. I already know you're gonna kick ass," he told her.

"So that was what the breakfast was all about," Serena snapped her fingers. "Mia must have known bout it too.'

"Yeah, big mouth over here spilled the beans to her," Dom said, cocking his head in Letty's direction.

"She was gonna find out anyways," she mumbled shrugging her shoulders and putting on her shades.

Vincent shook his head in disbelief, "I don't know what made you change your mind, but I think it's one of the best ideas you've ever had, dawg. She'll embarrass the shit out of the other teams by winnin'. Cuz like I said, she's a natural racer, it's in her blood." He added, rubbing Serena's shoulder.

"As much as I'd like to stand here and talk about Serena wipin' the asphalt with the other teams asses, we got a car to work on," Leon interrupted clearing his throat,

"Shit, man, you know how to suck the excitement out of good news," Vince grumbled at him.

Letty shook her head at Vince, "Damn, I can't believe I'm about to say this, but I agree with Leon, we need to start workin' on her car. Makes me think I have to be wrong when I'm on your side."

Leon laughed sarcastically and flipped her off getting into his car. Letty returned the gesture and let Serena into the backseat of Dom's car before getting into the passenger seat next to Dom.

They pulled out of the driveway and took off down the street unaware that Summer had been watching them from her window.



What will happen next...I'll post the next chapter after I get a few more reviews.sorry its short, the best is yet to come.
