A/N: One by one fortunes come true. Vince's has happened, he got Crimson. Leon's came true, he's with Summer. Serena's is reality since she won the race and is in love with Damon. Who's will be next?














Dom arrived ten minutes later with Letty and Chaz since Carissa was in trouble. Dom walked into the office and saw Serena sitting there nursing a bruised cheek and Damon with a bloody nose. Carissa sat on her other side with a scratch on her cheek that bled freely.

"Serena, Sunshine, what happened? Who did this?" Dom asked, kneeling in front of her.

"Excuse me sir. You can't talk to them," one of the ladies behind the desk said.

He looked at her, "This is my sister and I want to hear what happened?"

"The principal will tell you what happened," she said with an attitude.

"I don't care, ma'am. I want to hear what my sister has to say if you don't mind," he told her, still in front of Serena.

"I do mind," the lady said, looking him over with distaste.

"Excuse me," Letty slammed her hand on the desktop. "Why don't you go back to your job and stop hassling us. We just want to hear what she has to say. I'm sure you'd do the same thing if it was your kid."

"My child wouldn't be here in the first place," the lady smiled.

Letty opened her mouth but Chaz dragged her back. "Let it go Letty. Let it go."

She shook her head but stayed silent.

"Tell me what happened, Sunshine," Dom told Serena.

"Lea Tong was talking shit, Dom. I walked away like you told me too, but she attacked me from behind. Carissa and Damon helped get them away. I didn't swing first."

"Okay," he nodded and headed to the principals office. The lady had him sit in front of him.

"Mr. Toretto your sister has caused a ruckus on school grounds. She got into a fight with Ms. Lea Tong and nearly broke the girl's nose. Her two other friends were also a bit beat up by Serena's friends."

"Have you seen my sister? She isn't exactly unharmed either," he said coldly. Not liking this lady one bit. Ms. Myricks was a middle-aged woman. Her hair was pulled back into a tight bun and she wore little make-up. She was the type of woman who favored students. If a student she favored got into trouble the punishment would be less, but if a student she disliked got into a little trouble for nothing the punishment would be harsh. Lea was favored, Serena was not.

"Yes, I have seen her. I also have her backpack right here and was looking through her things. I came upon a journal," she said holding up a composition book.

Dom recognized it immediately. "That's Serena's diary. You have no right to be reading through that."

"I do. I am the principal and I need to know what she's been doing. Luckily she only writes thoughts in here. She finds you to be the center of her world. You baby her by the looks of it," she looked at him coldly. "Calling her your 'sunshine' and your 'diamond' no wonder she gets into fights Mr. Toretto you baby her so she thinks she can get away with it. Maybe if you punished her she wouldn't be so wild. What would your father think of this?"

Dom flinched at the mention of the words. Maybe she was right. He was being too cuddly of her. She was growing up and needed discipline.

"She'll be suspended for two days for this act. Her and her friends," she told him, handing him Serena's things. He nodded and left the office.

Serena smiled at him, "How did it go?"

"Shut up, let's go," he said sternly. Serena frowned and looked at Letty she shrugged and they all followed. Dom went back to work. The ride there was silent. All he did was mention she was suspended for two days. He arrived at work and sent Serena to his office and told her to sit in there. Chaz took time to talk with Carissa while Asher talked with Damon.

"Are you sure she saw it?" Asher asked nervously.

"Yeah," he nodded remembering Lea's reaction.

"She's a Tran?"

"Yeah, the X in it didn't fool her. She saw the O," he said, looking at the floor.

"Shit!" he exclaimed. "They don't know where we are. We're safe."

"For how long Asher?" he asked staring at him.

"As long as we lay low," he told his cousin.

"Screw that shit, Asher, you have to tell Dom, now."

"Tell me what?" Dom asked coming over.

Asher looked at Damon for help. Damon walked away shaking his head towards the office to be with Serena. Dom looked at Asher. "Something you want to tell me?"

"No," Asher said and went back to work on the car.

Dom leaned against the grill, "If there's something you want to tell me then you can Asher. I don't care if it's good or bad it won't change anything."

Asher looked at Dom and shook his head, "I've got nothing to say."

Dom nodded. He didn't want to push him too much. Asher would tell him when he was ready and there was no forcing him to do it. He walked away leaving him to think of his own problems.

Dom sent Serena to bed when they got back and explained what happened to some of the others. Brian came back awhile later with no luck on anything. Dom sighed and knew he'd have to wait and see if one of them spoke to him. He went to bed with Letty a few minutes later. He glanced at Serena's door. The principal's words still in his mind. He shook his head and went into his room. Mia and Brian saw him do it. She decided to talk to her brother about it while Brian talked to Serena.

Mia opened the door to her brother's room. Letty was in the bathroom taking a quick shower while Dom sat on the bed reading out of a diary…her sister's diary. "That doesn't belong to you, Dom. That's Serena's and speaking of our baby sister what the hell is going on?"

"She got in trouble, Mia," he said, putting the book down on his nightstand. He looked at her untying his shoes.

"I know that, but what are you doing? Vince tells me you've ignored her all day. Anytime she tried to speak you told her to 'shut up'. You never tell her that.'

"She got in a fight and got suspended. She's being punished."

"What the hell kind of punishment is this? Ignoring her? What the hell Dom?" she yelled pointing at Serena's door down the hall.

Dom kept his voice calm. "She's not a child anymore. I can't baby her."

"You were never babying her. You were being a brother," she exploded, crossing her arms.

"What would dad think of that?"

"What would he think of you being an asshole? Gee, I don't know Dom."

"She's being punished Mia, Jesus," he shook his head.

" I give up Dom, you're impossible," Mia surrendered throwing her hands up and leaving the room.

**~~

Serena heard a knock on the door and her heart sped up. She prayed it was Dom coming to talk to her. The door opened and Brian appeared. Her heart crashed and she sighed. "Hey Brian."

"Hey Serena," he said sitting next to her. "What's up?"

"I wish I knew," she grumbled looking at the ceiling.

"What happened at school today?" he asked her. "Come on you can tell me."

"This girl, Lea Tong, was talking shit and I refused to fight her so she hit me from behind and started this fight. Carissa and Damon ended up in the mix. Dom showed up and was cool with things until after he talked to Ms. Myricks. Then he ignored me all day. Did I do something wrong Brian?"

He shook his head and shrugged, "Not that I can see."

"Why does he hate me, Brian?" she asked quietly.

He put an arm around her shoulders, "He doesn't hate you, Serena. You're his sunshine. He can't hate you. Watch by tomorrow everything will be back to normal."

She nodded. "Okay."

"Just don't think about it," he hugged her and kissed her cheek. "Good-night."

"Night Brian," she said, kissing his cheek back. He had pretty much become another brother to her since he'd been dating Mia.

He smiled and shut her door. Serena changed her clothing and sat in bed staring out the window. She closed her eyes and agreed with Brian. By tomorrow morning everything would be fine. Dom just needed time to cool down that was all.

~~**~~
The next morning Serena left her room right as Dom did. She was suspended but had to go with him to the garage. She smiled guessing he was back to normal. She jumped up on his back as usual. But this time he didn't smile or hold her up.

"Get down," he told her. "Now."

She slid off his back quickly and watched him walk down the stairs. Things weren't normal. It was still as bad as yesterday. He went downstairs alone and Serena followed behind him, making sure there was plenty of space in-between them. Everyone noticed when Dom came into the kitchen alone and Serena was behind him. They all looked at her and she shrugged. Asher and Ebony came by a few minutes later with Damon. And Chaz came by with Carissa

"Alright, Asher you're driving with Leon. Brian you can take Mia and Ebony. Chaz can take Carissa in their car. Vince can take Damon and Letty can ride with me."

Mia looked at Brian as well as everyone else glancing at each other. "Dom, aren't you forgetting someone?" Letty questioned, putting a hand on her him

"Who?" he asked.

"Me," Serena whispered, shocked he didn't say her name. The hurt was clear in her eyes, but disappeared as she realized it was showing. She didn't want the others to see.

"Oh, right. Whoever wants to take you?" he shrugged not caring.

"I'll take her," Chaz volunteered, seeing nothing had changed since yesterday afternoon.

He nodded, "Alright let's go." Everyone left the house and hot into their cars.

"Has it been like this all day?" Carissa asked as they drove to the garage.

She nodded, "Yeah, it has. I hoped it wore off but it hasn't. I don't know what's wrong anymore."

"He'll cool off," Chaz declared. "You'll see. It'll get better."

She sighed, letting out the breath she'd been holding. "Yeah, I guess you're right Chaz."

Carissa smiled at her, "It can't get any worse girl, it just can't."

Serena nodded again. It couldn't get any worse. Later that night would prove them both wrong.
