Not The Same: Chapter 13: Now And Forever: Letty's POV:

"Can we talk now?" Dom asked a minute later after Alex, Leon, Misha and Vince left.

"Yeah, we can. But not here. Let's go upstairs," I told him as I took his hand and lead him upstairs room.

I opened the wooden door and stepped inside, still holding his hand. Dom shut the door behind us and looked at me. I looked into his eyes and I finally saw what Mia told me everyone else had seen. Love and Affection. I've finally saw it and I suddenly felt a chill down my spine. I quickly let go of his hand and turned my back to him walking up to the window.

"So who's going to go first?" Dom asked a minute later.

"I'll go first," I said still not facing him. I couldn't look at him because every time I do, I wanted to run up to him, wrap my arms around and kiss him but I can't. Not just yet. And the look in his eyes was scaring the shit out of me. Why have I haven't noticed that look before? Why did everyone else notice but me? Maybe that's why I'm scared. I've never notice that look. It seems so strange. So unfamiliar. I never took the chance to really look at him like I did a few seconds ago. I just wanted to run far away from here. But I can't. I won't. I won't run away from my problems. Not anymore. Besides, I promised him that we would talk. I can't break my promises. I took a deep breath and started.

"Dom, you don't know how much I love you. You take up most if my heart and I know that no one can replace you there. When we first got together, I was so happy. I always thought that you were the perfect boyfriend. I thought that you would always make me happy and never ever hurt me. But a month later, you proved me wrong. I still remember that night when you slept with that Tran bitch. You came back and said you were sorry and all that shit and I forgave you and took you back. You know why? Because I love you and you said you would change but about a week later, you did it again.and again.and again.and so on. I just had to leave Dom! I couldn't take it anymore! I had had enough! I couldn't always take you back just to have you do it again. I couldn't anymore! I couldn't stand you flirting with all those girls and putting your arms around them and touching them in places where you touch me. You're mine Dom and I don't want to share you!" I said finally letting it all out.

Dom sighed and walked up to me. I still had my back turned to him as he wrapped his arms around my waist from behind. He took a deep breath and rested his head on the side of my head. "Letty, I'm sorry. I know saying sorry won't make it all better but what am I supposed to do? Letty, I will try to stop but I can't make you a promise that I would just stop cold turkey. It's gonna take time, Let. The only promise I can give you is that I will try and that no matter what.....I will always love you. Letty, please give me another chance. You're everything I have ever wanted and ever wished for. I promise that I will try to stop flirting with other girls so much and doing other things to them like what I do to you. I promise that I will love you and take care of you until the day I die and maybe even longer then that and if I fail to keep these promises then I'll be the one leaving. Let, when you left I couldn't take it anymore. I couldn't eat or sleep. Everything reminded me of you. I didn't want to go to work 'cause all I would do is slack off. You should've seen all these nasty looks the team was giving me for hurting you and letting you go. You've left me a total wreck Let, but I deserved it. I probably even deserve more. Please, Letty, please give me another chance. Please give us another chance," Dom said hopefully.

"It's just not that easy to forget Dom."

"I know. But I will do anything to make those bad memories go away. Anything."

"Just love me Dom! And try not to hurt me anymore! I've been hurt all my life. It was either my family who thought I was useless, my old friends who thought I was pathetic, and even you that was causing the pain I as feeling. I am sick and tired of getting hurt and feeling weak. I don't think I can go through it again."

"I will try my best not to cause you so much pain anymore. From now on, the first priority in my life is making you happy. I promise."

"And what if you don't keep these promises you're making me?" I asked, now facing him.

"Then I'll be the one who leaves. Not you. Now I'm going to ask you one more time. Will you give me and us one last chance? Do you want to be miserable or do you want to be happy?"

I looked into his eyes and I knew that he meant everything he just said. Was I really ready to give him another chance? What if he fails to keep his promises? I love him so much but do I love him enough to take a chance of feeling pain again? There was only one answer.

"...I want to be happy....with you."

"I love you," Dom smiled.

"I love you too," I smiled back, "but if you break your promises, I will kick your ass all the way 'till you kiss the moon!"

Dom laughed and slowly placed his lips on mine. The kiss was slow at first but turned into a heated passionate kiss. I opened my mouth a little bit so is tongue could enter. His tongue massaged mine as he led me to the bed. He gently laid me down on it still kissing me. He started to kiss my neck until I pushed him off me slowly. He looked at me confused.

"Lets not do it now. I want to wait a couple days. I still have to get used to you and me kissing," I told him.

"I understand," he replied.

"It's gonna take time, Dom. But I will forgive you."

"I know. And when that happens, it'll be just you and me now and forever."

"I like forever," I said, smiling.

"So do I," Dom said giving me a little butterfly kiss on the lips.

"Since we're not gonna do it now, do you want to go downstairs and watch a movie?" I asked him.

"Sure."

We walked downstairs hand in hand to the living room. Dom sat on the floor leaning against the front side of the couch and watched me pick out a movie.

"Ok. We have a choice between Triple X and Pitch Black. Pick one," I ordered him.

"Pitch Black," he said smoothly.

I put the tape in the VCR, grabbed the remote and walked over to him.

"Spread," I ordered him. He spread his legs and I sat down between them, leaning against his chest. He wrapped his arms securely around my waist as I fast forward through all the previews. Until I reached the beginning of the movie I stopped.

"You know Dom, that Riddick guy could pass for your twin brother," I told him.

"Why does everyone keep saying that?"

" 'Cause it's true."

"Well I don't see the similarity."

"Of course you don't. But it'll be so cool if he ever came here and found you. It'll be so fun 'cause I'll get to have two of you."

"Ok sweetie, one, that Vin whatever his name is guy doesn't even know I exist. Two, if he really did know, I doubt he'll come and find me. And three, you're mine! And I'm not sharing you with anyone."

"Not even the team?"

"Let them find their own Letty 'cause this one's mine," he said as he kissed my forehead.

"You're so self-centered."

"I know."

I laughed and gave him a quick kiss on the lips. "It would be so cool though because if one of you messed up, I could replace you with the other one," I smirked.

"Am I supposed to be laughing 'cause I don't think it's funny."

"Whatever, baby."

"Shut up and kiss me." I did as I was told with a smile on my face. It was true though. No matter what, no one can replace my Dom. He was one of a kind. It was just Dom and Letty now. Now and Forever.
Isn't that sweet! Hehehehe! I hope you like it. ^_^
