Author Note: I cannot thanks 'Sobosbabe' enough for the help she has given
me on this chapter. She's a star! I know it's taken me a long time to
update, but I can assure you it's worth it! This chapter has a lot of
unexpected twists and turns, and some good action.
~~**~~**
Another Friday night; another race; another victory for Dom; that meant one thing: another party. Everyone had gone in their respective cars that night, with Jesse's gleaming white Jetta looking as perfect as it was before the accident. Elly had gotten a lot of insurance money for her car, and had put a brand new speaker system in it; along with a lot of stuff that Jesse had said was 'the shit' under her hood. She had managed to bribe Mia into helping wash her car thoroughly in and out. Now her Skyline looked brand new.
Dom had won 15G's that night, with Elly holding the money. When Leon had yelled out that cops were on their tails, they had high-tailed it out of there, and she pushed the bundle of notes under the small car mat on the passenger's side. If the cops stopped her for a car inspection, and nosed around hopefully they wouldn't find it. When she arrived home, Mia, Letty, Jesse and Dom were back. She went in to the kitchen through the back door, to find Jesse sticking his nose in the fridge, looking for food.
"Hey Jess."
"Yo Elly. Got any bacon?" he asked, peering harder into the fridge. Elly looked in behind him.
"Don't look like it." She said, walking over to the counter where liquors were spread out. She grabbed the vodka bottle and a tall glass.
Jesse raised an eyebrow at the size of her glass.
"Jess, I'm just gonna put a tiny bit in." She reached into the fridge from behind him to grab a strawberry coloured sparkling drink. She poured the two into the glass, and took a gulp. She held up the glass.
"Want some?" Jesse walked over and took a sip from the glass. Mia walked in then.
"Ooh, Strawberry Gashes. Yes please, L." She took a seat at the table.
"Mmm, that's good. Strawberry Gashes, never heard that before." Jesse commented.
"I made it up. Dom thinks it just a plain strawberry fruit drink." She smiled at Mia, who smiled back.
"Right, later ladies. I'ma check out the girls." He laughed lightly as he left. Elly made Mia and glass.
"Where's Dom at?" Elly asked.
"Upstairs I think. Letty went looking for him before I came in here. Important?" she gulped down half of her drink.
"Yeah, I need to give him the money." She said lowly. She put her hand near her hip, where she had put the money between her pants and skirt, hoping to god the bills didn't fall. Mia just nodded.
"Later girl. Go easy on the gashes, A'ight?" she laughed, and Mia raised her glass, chuckling. Elly headed upstairs, weaving past a couple making out.
"You guys seen Dom come up here?" Elly asked hoping to get a reply out the couple, that didn't involve them telling her to fuck off. The guy answered.
"He came up here, then went downstairs to the basement with Harriet." Elly furrowed her brows.
"Don't you mean Letty?" the guy was frustrated, and let out a long sigh.
"No. Harriet. I said Harriet I meant Harriet." Ely took that as her cue to leave, and headed down one flight of stairs, then headed down the hall to the door of the basement. She got down to the bottom, and only then did her brain register the occupants. Dom, with no shirt on; Harriet, who was straightening out her barely there tight pink dress. And Letty. Letty shouting and cursing profusely in Spanish, English and any other language she knew how to insult somebody in. She was waving her hands around frantically, tears slowly riding down her cheeks.
~~**~~**
Mia finished off her drink, and was making herself another glass of Strawberry Gashes, when Leon and Vince came in.
"Hey guys."
"Hey Mia" they said in unison.
"How was the ride home?" she asked.
"No problems." Vince reported, taking two Coronas out the fridge, and threw one over to Leon.
"Where's my guitar?" Vince asked into the air.
"Where ya left it?" Mia said sarcastically.
"Ha! You're just so funny!" he went into the living room searching.
"What you drinking?" Leon asked, resting against the counter and smelling her drink.
"Strawberry Gashes. It's strawberry sparkling drink and vodka. Elly made it up." Eons face lit up at the word 'Elly'. He handed her back the drink.
"Well, no wonder it smells sweet."
"Awww, Leon!" she grinned and hugged him. "You're so sweet!" she lightly kissed him on the cheek. He laughed and asked her if she knew where Elly was.
"Went to look for Dom."
"Mia! Can't find it!" Vince pouted in the doorway to the kitchen. Mia sighed and went with Vince to find his precious guitar. Leon went in search of Elly. He asked around and one girl said that they were in the basement. He went into the basement, shutting the door and blocking out the noise from the party. He was greeted by the sound of Letty cursing in languages he could not comprehend. He flew to the bottom of the stairs.
"Hey." Elly turned and smiled quickly before turning her attention back to Letty, trying to calm her down. Letty's tears and the sight of Dom and Harriet standing so close together was enough evidence to understand what had just happened. Leon walked over to Harriet.
"I think you should leave."
"This ain't got shit to do wit you." Harriet snorted. Leon grabbed her arm and started to drag her towards the stairs.
"Hey! Get off her!" Dom shouted.
~~**~~**
Mia peered behind the sofa. She was sure it was there.
"Vince, only YOU could loose a guitar!" she called moving some papers around that fallen behind the sofa.
"But only you can find it!" he shouted back over the music, looking at the great view of her ass.
"Stop looking at my ass!" she slapped him on the arm. Thinking for a moment, it suddenly clicked where she had seen it.
"Basement! It's in the basement!"
"What the hell is it doing down there!"
"How should I know? It ain't my guitar." Mia said, crossing her arms. Jesse came towards them.
"Man, this party sucks. All he best ladies have been taken. So not fair." He sulked and looked around the room. Mia coughed.
"Ahem. I'm here." She smiled, laughed and gestured to herself. Vince threw her arm over her shoulder.
"No, brotha. Taken." They all laughed.
"Seen Leon?" Jesse asked still looking around the room.
"Went to look for Elly." Mia stated.
"I think I saw Leon go down to the basement." Vince started walking in the direction of the basement, drinking is beer. Mia and Jesse followed. As they were descending the stairs of the basement, they all heard Dom shout,
"Hey! Get off her!" But the person he was saying it about wasn't Letty. It was Harriet. Letty stopped cursing and crying, and everybody froze to the spot.
"What?!" Leon asked surprised as hell.
"Get off my woman!" Leon let go of Harriet's arm in shock.
"YOUR WOMAN!" Letty yelled. Her fists clenched. Mia, Jess and Vince had joined Elly at the bottom of the stairs.
"I mean, get off her - you're hurting her." Dom quickly said.
"SHE'S THE ONE WHOS HURT?!!!" Letty screamed. Fresh tears screaming down her face, she bolted back up the stairs. Elly began to go after her when Mia stopped her.
"I don't think she wants people right now, hun. Give her space." Elly nodded.
"Brotha, what the hell are you saying?!" Vince asked.
"V, SUT UP! I didn't mean it like it sounded!" Dom put one hand on his hip, the other rubbing his head. Elly was giving a death stare at Harriet, and if looks could kill, Mia would be on convicted for murdering Dom. Leon had his arms crossed with a 'Dom you're an ass' look plastered on his face. Jesse was leaning against the wall, shaking his head, lighting a cigarette. Vince was staring hard, flicking glares between Dom and Harriet.
"Well that's what it sounded like 15 minutes ago!" Harriet squawked.
"SHUT UP!" Dom yelled. "YOU'RE VOICE SOUNDS LIKE A MILLION DYING OUT OF TUNE CATS!" Harriet was stunned by the insult and took a timid step back, bowing her head.
"I can't believe you did that Dom! After everything you promised her! After everything you promised each other!" Mia shouted, and bounded upstairs to console Letty.
"Ya'know Dom, I thought you couldn't get any lower than fucking Tran's sister but screwing that -" Elly pointed to Harriet. "Is beyond me!" she turned quickly and followed Mia.
"How the hell could you do it, Dom?" Leon asked, running both hands through his hair, shaking his head. Jesse pushed himself off the wall, and walked towards Dom.
"She's a fucking disease!" Jesse spat, looking harshly at Harriet.
"You deserve to get your fucking head kicked in after what you did to Letty!" Vince shouted as he walked to face Dom, only inches away from each other.
"YEAH? WELL WHY DON'T YOU TRY!" Dom beckoned him. Harriet knew that this was gonna get ugly, so she made a swift exit. With one swift blow Vince hit Dom in the face, causing him to land on his hands and knees on the ground. Leon Jesse and Vince began kicking and punching some sense into him.
~~**~~**
As Elly slammed the basement door shut, she was glad to see that none of their guests had really noticed that the team had gone missing temporarily, and were still drinking and dancing. She didn't want everybody knowing about their personal business. She looked around for Mia or Letty, and decided Letty must have bombed it upstairs. Before heading upstairs she grabbed the vodka from the table that had been part of the sweet tasting Strawberry Gashes not that long ago.
Knocking on the door lightly and stepping in, she found Letty lying face down on the bed, shaking violently from the tears. Mia was rubbing her back, soothing her. Elly approached, and put down the vodka on the bedside able. Letty looked up at the vodka, then to Elly, and gave a very faint smile. Elly smiled back and handed her the bottle.
"BA'STARD!" Letty screamed as she took a swig. "He promised, he fucking swore on his parents' life he wouldn't do that again!" Mia and Elly looked at each other, both thinking what dad would do if he knew how he disrespected a woman like that, and how mom would be so disappointed. She took another swig. Elly sat the other side of her.
"Your brothers a ba'stard!" she spat, taking a gulp.
"Sweetie, maybe you should stay at a friend's house." Mia suggested.
"Yeah. I sure as hell ain't sleeping under the same roof as that prick for a few weeks."
"Why don't you stay at Lila's?" Letty nodded. Then started crying and collapsed on Elly's shoulder. Mia went to the wardrobe to get a bag and put a few things in for her. Mia kneeled in front of Letty and said quietly,
"I'll just call Lila and tell her what's happening." Letty nodded, and Mia left.
"I'm so sorry, Letty. I don't know what to say, except sorry. And that I can't believe Mia and me are related to...that." Letty shook her head against Elly's shoulder.
"Don't you be sorry, girl. Just get me outta here." Elly picked up the bag, and took Letty's hand in a tight, reassuring grip. When they reached the bottom, Mia was on the phone, but the guys were nowhere to be seen. A few people had left the party, and most people were either high or so drunk they didn't notice that not one member of the team was around. Elly quickly scrawled a note to the guys and popped it on the fridge door, held on by a car magnet that replicated Dom's car. She thought better of it, and decided to put on a magnet that she had bought from a little trip they made a few months ago to Nevada. 'Such great times' she thought. Her hand lingered on the magnet, fresh memories from the trip filling her mind, ruined by the distant screech of Harriet's voice. Elly led Letty to her Skyline.
She had never looked so, well, girlie. Letty had been the tough one. She didn't take sh'it from no one, but she sure as hell gave sh'it out to people who pissed her off, or any of her closest friends. She looked dainty sitting in the back. Mia came out to the car, and Elly started her engine. A soppy love song came onto the radio, so she quickly turned it onto a CD that she knew Letty liked. All the way to Lila and Hector's house, Letty stared out the window, as if looking for an answer as to why Dom had done this to her.
That night Hector had held a small party for some of his friends that had come to visit him, but thankfully by the time they arrived, he had ushered them out. Hector had heard what happened. His questions only made Letty more upset, so Lila told him to go to bed, but not in very nice words. Lila had a knack for calming people down. Mia was gentle and soft-spoken, Elly was comforting but Lila was the master. When Mia had been attacked by Brian, Lila had calmed her down so much, that she practically forgot it happened. And Leon was the one who looked after Elly. She smiled as she thought about him, and that night in particular when they first kissed. How she wished he were here right now to hold her in those strong arms of his, her head nestled on his shoulder, and to be able to feel his chain.
25 minutes later, the girls all hugged each other goodbye. Elly got Letty to one side and handed her the 15G from her hips.
"I think you deserve this. It's Dom's money that he won." Letty smirked, both girls knowing that she would blow most of it on clothes and sh'it she didn't need or want.
Mia and Elly endured the 30 minutes ride home in comfortable silence, only the radio for background noise.
~~**~~**
When they got home, it was just coming up to 2 in the morning. Mia got out before Elly had even turned the key, wanting to know what had happened with Dom. Walking briskly into the house, rubbing her hands over her arms, shielding herself from the cold L.A night. She paused briefly to say hi to Leon sitting on the porch swing. He held up his beer and nodded as a greeting. Elly stepped out the car, and noticed how cool it had gotten. As she climbed the steps up to the house, the security light came on, and only then did she notice Leon on the swing. She jumped a little at the revelation, smiled and walked towards him.
"Hey."
"Hey baby."
"Is Dom inside?" She asked gravely, as he held out his arms and grabbed her hips to pull her into his lap.
"Nah, he left bout 15 minutes after you." He replied as he leaned back into the swing, the force rocking them slightly. Elly wrapped her cool arms round his warm neck, and leaned down to meet his mouth. His mouth was so warm and inviting against the cool air. She let out a small moan as his hand found it's way up her top, massaging her back. She pushed her whole body towards him, and shivered as a rough breeze shook her body. He pulled away, and began rubbing both hands across her back.
"You're freezing." He noted, his mouth so close to her lips she could feel them moving as he spoke.
"Yeah, but you're hot." She smiled, and he felt her mouth turn upwards against his. Her hands found his the bottom of his shirt, and wondered up to his toned chest, gently scratching him with her nails. The security light turned off, and they could only see each other by the light given off from the living room. Her black hair shone in the dim light, and his green eyes were lit up by the glow.
He put his hand to her face and kissed her deeply again. She moved her leg so that she was straddling him, and he sank further down into the swing. His hands moved south from her back to her ass, cupping it lightly. She groaned, and he grasped it harder, forcing her to moan louder. Their kiss deepened even more, and he moved his lips onto her neck. She tilted her head backwards and thrust towards his growing arousal.
"Even though things are hot, it's too cold to be outside." He said into her neck. She moved off him, and he stood up. As she was to open the door, he came up behind her and grabbed her waist with his left arm. With his right he brushed her leg, moving his hand up to her thigh, then up to the beginning of her panties. She moaned and pushed her head back into his chest. Looking up at him she purred,
"You're gonna have to follow that up inside." She opened the door to find Jesse and Vince playing on the PS2, with Mia in the middle, holding a cup of hot chocolate, watching the action. She looked up.
"Hey guys. Night guys." Elly greeted. Leon opened his mouth to say something, put Elly pulled him towards his room. Vince chuckled.
"Eager." Mia shot him a disgusted look.
They heard the door slam.
"Yup." Jesse smiled.
~~**~~**
Elly flung the door open to the bedroom, and turned around, greeted by Leon's hungry mouth. He slammed the door shut with his leg, picked Elly up without loosing contact with her mouth, and laid her on his bed gently. He took her top off, leaving kisses from her navel to her neck. She reached behind her to unhook her bra, as he worked on her skirt. 5 seconds later her bra was flung against the window, and the skirt made a soft sound as it hit the floor. Regaining the connection between their lips, she ripped off his shirt, and started working on the zipper of his jeans. Before she threw his jeans on the floor, she dug into the back pocket and pulled out the condom that she knew he kept there. He moaned and began sucking her breast, as one hand played with the other. She thrust her hips upwards and let out a small cry in pleasure. When his jeans had landed on the floor, he began nibbling lightly at her skin, down towards her stomach. He took off her underwear and began kissing her between the thighs, teasingly sticking out his tongue now and then. She put the condom in her mouth, and put her hands out to the side to grip the sheets. He removed his boxers, and slowly crawled his way over her to meet her eyes. He bent down and took the condom from between her teeth with his, then ripped it open with a skilled hand. He never lost contact with her shiny smiling blue eyes, while he rolled it onto his hard shaft.
He lent down to kiss her, and as his tongue entered her mouth, he moved into her slowly. He stayed there while she shifted her body to get more comfortable with him. As he moved in and out, his tongue mirrored his actions. She rubbed her hands up and down his back; leaving tiny red marks were her nails had dug in a little. She started breathing more heavily, a sign to him that she was close to coming. He began moving faster, and she flew her hands out to the pillow she was laying her head on, and gripped it tighter as the orgasm swept through her whole body.
"Oh god Leon! Oh, yes! Yes..."
She was so silky and tight around him that his climax quickly followed hers.
"Oh! Oh baby..." Leon moaned. He laid his head slowly on her left shoulder, as he pulled out from her. They were both breathing heavily, lying motionless for a while. Elly began lightly stroking his right arm that was draped on the pillow next to her head. He reached down to roll the condom off, and flung it towards the bin, not entirely sure if it went in or not. He then leant over her flushed face.
"I love you, L" she beamed at what she had just heard. Looking into his glistening green eyes, she said softly,
"I love you too, Leon." He stroked her face, then trailed his hand down her shoulder, kissed it, and then turned to lay flat on the bed. She snuggled closer to him.
"Claimed your prize?" he asked with a playful smile. She lifted her head up and kissed him lightly on the cheek.
"Yup. Top prize." She laid her head back down, her cheek in its usual position on top of his silver chain.

Author Note: Oh dear, Dom has cheated on Letty - again. Who will she turn to for a shoulder to cry on?...I wonder...

Another Friday night; another race; another victory for Dom; that meant one thing: another party. Everyone had gone in their respective cars that night, with Jesse's gleaming white Jetta looking as perfect as it was before the accident. Elly had gotten a lot of insurance money for her car, and had put a brand new speaker system in it; along with a lot of stuff that Jesse had said was 'the shit' under her hood.

"Ooh, Strawberry Gashes. Yes please, L." She took a seat at the table.
"Mmm, that's good. Strawberry Gashes, never heard that before." Jesse commented.
"I made it up. Dom thinks it just a plain strawberry fruit drink." She smiled at Mia, who smiled back.
"Right, later ladies. I'ma check out the girls." He laughed lightly as he left. Elly made Mia and glass.
"Where's Dom at?" Elly asked.
"Upstairs I think. Letty went looking for him before I came in here. Important?" she gulped down half of her drink.

"Later girl. Go easy on the gashes, A'ight?" she laughed, and Mia raised her glass, chuckling. Elly headed upstairs, weaving past a couple making out.
"You guys seen Dom come up here?" Elly asked hoping to get a reply out the couple, that didn't involve them telling her to fuck off. The guy answered.
"He came up here, then went downstairs to the basement with Harriet." Elly furrowed her brows.
"Don't you mean Letty?" the guy was frustrated, and let out a long sigh.
"No. Harriet. I said Harriet I meant Harriet." Ely took that as her cue to leave, and headed down one flight of stairs, then headed down the hall to the door of the basement. She got down to the bottom, and only then did her brain register the occupants. Dom, with no shirt on; Harriet, who was straightening out her barely there tight pink dress. And Letty. Letty shouting and cursing profusely in Spanish, English and any other language she knew how to insult somebody in. She was waving her hands around frantically, tears slowly riding down her cheeks.
~~**~~**
Mia finished off her drink, and was making herself another glass of Strawberry Gashes, when Leon and Vince came in.
"Hey guys."
"Hey Mia" they said in unison.
"How was the ride home?" she asked.
"No problems." Vince reported, taking two Coronas out the fridge, and threw one over to Leon.
"Where's my guitar?" Vince asked into the air.
"Where ya left it?" Mia said sarcastically.
"Ha! You're just so funny!" he went into the living room searching.
"What you drinking?" Leon asked, resting against the counter and smelling her drink.
"Strawberry Gashes. It's strawberry sparkling drink and vodka. Elly made it up." Eons face lit up at the word 'Elly'. He handed her back the drink.
"Well, no wonder it smells sweet."
"Awww, Leon!" she grinned and hugged him. "You're so sweet!" she lightly kissed him on the cheek. He laughed and asked her if she knew where Elly was.
"Went to look for Dom."
"Mia! Can't find it!" Vince pouted in the doorway to the kitchen. Mia sighed and went with Vince to find his precious guitar. Leon went in search of Elly. He asked around and one girl said that they were in the basement. He went into the basement, shutting the door and blocking out the noise from the party. He was greeted by the sound of Letty cursing in languages he could not comprehend. He flew to the bottom of the stairs.
"Hey." Elly turned and smiled quickly before turning her attention back to Letty, trying to calm her down. Letty's tears and the sight of Dom and Harriet standing so close together was enough evidence to understand what had just happened. Leon walked over to Harriet.
"I think you should leave."
"This ain't got shit to do wit you." Harriet snorted. Leon grabbed her arm and started to drag her towards the stairs.
"Hey! Get off her!" Dom shouted.
~~**~~**
Mia peered behind the sofa. She was sure it was there.
"Vince, only YOU could loose a guitar!" she called moving some papers around that fallen behind the sofa.
"But only you can find it!" he shouted back over the music, looking at the great view of her ass.
"Stop looking at my ass!" she slapped him on the arm. Thinking for a moment, it suddenly clicked where she had seen it.
"Basement! It's in the basement!"
"What the hell is it doing down there!"
"How should I know? It ain't my guitar." Mia said, crossing her arms. Jesse came towards them.
"Man, this party sucks. All he best ladies have been taken. So not fair." He sulked and looked around the room. Mia coughed.
"Ahem. I'm here." She smiled, laughed and gestured to herself. Vince threw her arm over her shoulder.
"No, brotha. Taken." They all laughed.
"Seen Leon?" Jesse asked still looking around the room.
"Went to look for Elly." Mia stated.
"I think I saw Leon go down to the basement." Vince started walking in the direction of the basement, drinking is beer. Mia and Jesse followed. As they were descending the stairs of the basement, they all heard Dom shout,
"Hey! Get off her!" But the person he was saying it about wasn't Letty. It was Harriet. Letty stopped cursing and crying, and everybody froze to the spot.
"What?!" Leon asked surprised as hell.
"Get off my woman!" Leon let go of Harriet's arm in shock.
"YOUR WOMAN!" Letty yelled. Her fists clenched. Mia, Jess and Vince had joined Elly at the bottom of the stairs.
"I mean, get off her - you're hurting her." Dom quickly said.
"SHE'S THE ONE WHOS HURT?!!!" Letty screamed. Fresh tears screaming down her face, she bolted back up the stairs. Elly began to go after her when Mia stopped her.
"I don't think she wants people right now, hun. Give her space." Elly nodded.
"Brotha, what the hell are you saying?!" Vince asked.
"V, SUT UP! I didn't mean it like it sounded!" Dom put one hand on his hip, the other rubbing his head. Elly was giving a death stare at Harriet, and if looks could kill, Mia would be on convicted for murdering Dom. Leon had his arms crossed with a 'Dom you're an ass' look plastered on his face. Jesse was leaning against the wall, shaking his head, lighting a cigarette. Vince was staring hard, flicking glares between Dom and Harriet.
"Well that's what it sounded like 15 minutes ago!" Harriet squawked.
"SHUT UP!" Dom yelled. "YOU'RE VOICE SOUNDS LIKE A MILLION DYING OUT OF TUNE CATS!" Harriet was stunned by the insult and took a timid step back, bowing her head.
"I can't believe you did that Dom! After everything you promised her! After everything you promised each other!" Mia shouted, and bounded upstairs to console Letty.

Elly approached, and put down the vodka on the bedside able. Letty looked up at the vodka, then to Elly, and gave a very faint smile. Elly smiled back and handed her the bottle.
"BA'STARD!" Letty screamed as she took a swig. "He promised, he fucking swore on his parents' life he wouldn't do that again!" Mia and Elly looked at each other, both thinking what dad would do if he knew how he disrespected a woman like that, and how mom would be so disappointed. She took another swig. Elly sat the other side of her.
"Your brothers a ba'stard!" she spat, taking a gulp.
"Sweetie, maybe you should stay at a friend's house." Mia suggested.
"Yeah. I sure as hell ain't sleeping under the same roof as that prick for a few weeks."
"Why don't you stay at Lila's?" Letty nodded. Then started crying and collapsed on Elly's shoulder. Mia went to the wardrobe to get a bag and put a few things in for her. Mia kneeled in front of Letty and said quietly,
"I'll just call Lila and tell her what's happening." Letty nodded, and Mia left.
"I'm so sorry, Letty. I don't know what to say, except sorry. And that I can't believe Mia and me are related to...that." Letty shook her head against Elly's shoulder.
"Don't you be sorry, girl. Just get me outta here." Elly picked up the bag, and took Letty's hand in a tight, reassuring grip. When they reached the bottom, Mia was on the phone, but the guys were nowhere to be seen. A few people had left the party, and most people were either high or so drunk they didn't notice that not one member of the team was around. Elly quickly scrawled a note to the guys and popped it on the fridge door, held on by a car magnet that replicated Dom's car. She thought better of it, and decided to put on a magnet that she had bought from a little trip they made a few months ago to Nevada. 'Such great times' she thought.

She didn't take sh'it from no one, but she sure as hell gave sh'it out to people who pissed her off, or any of her closest friends. She looked dainty sitting in the back. Mia came out to the car, and Elly started her engine. A soppy love song came onto the radio, so she quickly turned it onto a CD that she knew Letty liked. All the way to Lila and Hector's house, Letty stared out the window, as if looking for an answer as to why Dom had done this to her.
That night Hector had held a small party for some of his friends that had come to visit him, but thankfully by the time they arrived, he had ushered them out. Hector had heard what happened. His questions only made Letty more upset, so Lila told him to go to bed, but not in very nice words. Lila had a knack for calming people down. Mia was gentle and soft-spoken, Elly was comforting but Lila was the master. When Mia had been attacked by Brian, Lila had calmed her down so much, that she practically forgot it happened. And Leon was the one who looked after Elly. She smiled as she thought about him, and that night in particular when they first kissed. How she wished he were here right now to hold her in those strong arms of his, her head nestled on his shoulder, and to be able to feel his chain.
25 minutes later, the girls all hugged each other goodbye. Elly got Letty to one side and handed her the 15G from her hips.
"I think you deserve this. It's Dom's money that he won." Letty smirked, both girls knowing that she would blow most of it on clothes and sh'it she didn't need or want.
Mia and Elly endured the 30 minutes ride home in comfortable silence, only the radio for background noise.
~~**~~**
When they got home, it was just coming up to 2 in the morning. Mia got out before Elly had even turned the key, wanting to know what had happened with Dom. Walking briskly into the house, rubbing her hands over her arms, shielding herself from the cold L.A night. She paused briefly to say hi to Leon sitting on the porch swing. He held up his beer and nodded as a greeting. Elly stepped out the car, and noticed how cool it had gotten. As she climbed the steps up to the house, the security light came on, and only then did she notice Leon on the swing. She jumped a little at the revelation, smiled and walked towards him.
"Hey."
"Hey baby."
"Is Dom inside?" She asked gravely, as he held out his arms and grabbed her hips to pull her into his lap.
"Nah, he left bout 15 minutes after you." He replied as he leaned back into the swing, the force rocking them slightly. Elly wrapped her cool arms round his warm neck, and leaned down to meet his mouth. His mouth was so warm and inviting against the cool air. She let out a small moan as his hand found it's way up her top, massaging her back. She pushed her whole body towards him, and shivered as a rough breeze shook her body. He pulled away, and began rubbing both hands across her back.
"You're freezing." He noted, his mouth so close to her lips she could feel them moving as he spoke.
"Yeah, but you're hot." She smiled, and he felt her mouth turn upwards against his. Her hands found his the bottom of his shirt, and wondered up to his toned chest, gently scratching him with her nails. The security light turned off, and they could only see each other by the light given off from the living room. Her black hair shone in the dim light, and his green eyes were lit up by the glow.
He put his hand to her face and kissed her deeply again. She moved her leg so that she was straddling him, and he sank further down into the swing. His hands moved south from her back to her ass, cupping it lightly. She groaned, and he grasped it harder, forcing her to moan louder. Their kiss deepened even more, and he moved his lips onto her neck. She tilted her head backwards and thrust towards his growing arousal.
"Even though things are hot, it's too cold to be outside." He said into her neck. She moved off him, and he stood up. As she was to open the door, he came up behind her and grabbed her waist with his left arm. With his right he brushed her leg, moving his hand up to her thigh, then up to the beginning of her panties. She moaned and pushed her head back into his chest. Looking up at him she purred,
"You're gonna have to follow that up inside." She opened the door to find Jesse and Vince playing on the PS2, with Mia in the middle, holding a cup of hot chocolate, watching the action. She looked up.
"Hey guys. Night guys." Elly greeted. Leon opened his mouth to say something, put Elly pulled him towards his room. Vince chuckled.
"Eager." Mia shot him a disgusted look.
They heard the door slam.
"Yup." Jesse smiled.

Elly flung the door open to the bedroom, and turned around, greeted by Leon's hungry mouth. He slammed the door shut with his leg, picked Elly up without loosing contact with her mouth, and laid her on his bed gently. He took her top off, leaving kisses from her navel to her neck. She reached behind her to unhook her bra, as he worked on her skirt. 5 seconds later her bra was flung against the window, and the skirt made a soft sound as it hit the floor. Regaining the connection between their lips, she ripped off his shirt, and started working on the zipper of his jeans. Before she threw his jeans on the floor, she dug into the back pocket and pulled out the condom that she knew he kept there. He moaned and began sucking her breast, as one hand played with the other. She thrust her hips upwards and let out a small cry in pleasure. When his jeans had landed on the floor, he began nibbling lightly at her skin, down towards her stomach. He took off her underwear and began kissing her between the thighs, teasingly sticking out his tongue now and then. She put the condom in her mouth, and put her hands out to the side to grip the sheets. He removed his boxers, and slowly crawled his way over her to meet her eyes. He bent down and took the condom from between her teeth with his, then ripped it open with a skilled hand. He never lost contact with her shiny smiling blue eyes, while he rolled it onto his hard shaft.
He lent down to kiss her, and as his tongue entered her mouth, he moved into her slowly. He stayed there while she shifted her body to get more comfortable with him. As he moved in and out, his tongue mirrored his actions. She rubbed her hands up and down his back; leaving tiny red marks were her nails had dug in a little. She started breathing more heavily, a sign to him that she was close to coming. He began moving faster, and she flew her hands out to the pillow she was laying her head on, and gripped it tighter as the orgasm swept through her whole body.
"Oh god Leon! Oh, yes! Yes..."
She was so silky and tight around him that his climax quickly followed hers.
"Oh! Oh baby..." Leon moaned. He laid his head slowly on her left shoulder, as he pulled out from her. They were both breathing heavily, lying motionless for a while. Elly began lightly stroking his right arm that was draped on the pillow next to her head. He reached down to roll the condom off, and flung it towards the bin, not entirely sure if it went in or not. He then leant over her flushed face.
"I love you, L" she beamed at what she had just heard. Looking into his glistening green eyes, she said softly,
"I love you too, Leon." He stroked her face, then trailed his hand down her shoulder, kissed it, and then turned to lay flat on the bed. She snuggled closer to him.
"Claimed your prize?" he asked with a playful smile. She lifted her head up and kissed him lightly on the cheek.
"Yup. Top prize." She laid her head back down, her cheek in its usual position on top of his silver chain.
