Hey everyone! I'm back! Sorry it's been so long. I got caught up with some things. I'm changing some things. Okay, you know how I said that Brian was going to work for Harry? Well I kinda changed that. He's still gonna be working for Harry but that's only a part time job. He's also a police officer but he's not after the Torreto's. Just read the chapter and you'll figure it out.
^&^&^Jesse's POV&^&^&^
I watched Karra from the booth that we had gotten at Tortilla Flats. (A.N. By the way great club.) She was showing off her ring to the female bartender, who also happened to be one of her good friends. Someone hit my shoulder so I looked at them. Dom was sitting next to me with Letty on his other side. I raised my eyebrow at him in a silent question and he grinned and motioned towards my taco's. "You going to finish that?"
I laughed and pushed them towards him. "I'm still full from dinner." He laughed and grabbed them.
"Thanks bro!" He got out before he started wolfing down.
Letty grabbed one and started eating too. I rolled my eyes at Leon, who started laughing. Karra came back from talking to her friend and sat on my lap. Linking her arms around my neck she whispered "I love you so much right now!"
I grinned and kissed her quickly on the lips. She grinned again and then turned around, sitting with her back against my chest and said to Leon "By the way, my friend Tamara, who I was just talking to, wanted to know who that cute guy was, that was sitting across from my dear fiance`." Leon blushed as she continued talking, "And she also asked for your number. She'll be calling you in a couple of days."
Everyone laughed as Leon buried his head in his hands. "Why do you insist on setting me up with your high school friends when I'm too old for them?"
Karra raised an eyebrow and said "She's not in high school. She's actually 22, otherwise she wouldn't be able to be a bartender if she was in high school."
Dom looked at her suspiciously and asked "And how did you meet her?"
Karra raised an eyebrow and asked "Don't you remember when I had to write a paper about the stereo-types that women bartenders go through? She was one of the girls I interviewed." Dom nodded and went back to eating.
Karra rolled her eyes and looked across the table at Mia. "How was school today?"
Mia shrugged and said "Interesting. We had to take self defense lessons today. You know if a patient ever goes berserk? And I got to tackle this guy that's been a pain in my ass since day one."
We all laughed until Vince asked "When do you two want to get married?"
Karra and I looked at each other and shrugged. "Maybe end of August, I'm thinking on the 20th." Karra said looking anywhere but me.
"Sweetheart, why do you want to have it on my parents anniversary?" I asked.
Everyone looked sharply at her when she winced. She looked down at me sheepishly and said "Last time we saw your dad, he asked that if you ever proposed, if we could get married on your moms and his anniversary, and I thought that it would be a really good idea."
I looked at her for a couple of seconds and then kissed her quickly. "I think it would be a great idea." I whispered against her lips.
She grinned her Cheshire cat grin and started talking to Mia about her classes. A few hours later, Dom got the bill and we went back to the house.
&^&^&^Next Day in Karra's Principal's office (Author's POV)^&^&^&
Dom sighed for the tenth time and asked the principal "How long do we have to wait? I have two businesses to run you know."
Ms. Hunter smiled tight lipped and answered "Just a few more moments, Mr. Torreto."
He sighed again and looked over at Karra. She was looking at her hands which were folded in her lap. He reached over and took one of her hands. She looked up and he saw that she was very nervous. He squeezed her hands and whispered "It's gonna be okay."
She grinned and squeezed his hand back. Then the door opened and a police officer walked in. "I'm sorry I'm late." He said "We had a drug bust last night and I was finishing up some paper work." He turned to Dom and Karra and said "I'm Officer Brian O'Connor. I was put in charge of Miss Torreto's harrasment charge against Mr. Linder."
Dom stood up and shook his hand and looked at him closely. "I have I seen you before?"
Officer O'Connor nodded and said "Probably since I also work at the Racer's Edge, which is where you mostly get your parts, right?"
Dom nodded and was about to say something else when Ms. Hunter cleared her throat. Officer O'Connor and Dom looked at her and Dom sat back down. Officer O'Connor opened a manila folder and said "Ms. Hunter, from what I've read this isn't the first charge been made against Mr. Linder. There have been 2 other complaints made to your secretary by Miss Torreto. May I ask why you didn't do anything before?"
Ms. Hunter shifted in her chair and said "I didn't think that it was very important at the time."
Karra glared and said "You didn't think it was important because I beat the shit out of your niece when I was a freshman. You've seen the advances he's made towards me."
Dom put a hand on her shoulder and silently told her to calm down. Officer O'Connor said quietly "Are you aware that failure to report possible sexual harassment against a minor is a felony Ms. Hunter? For failing to do so sooner you might lose your job and it makes you eligible to be sued by Miss Torreto and her family?"
Ms. Hunter glared at him and said "No, I wasn't aware." And then turned her glare to wards Karra.
Officer O'Connor said "It turns out that Mr. Linder has been charged with rape, drug dealing to minors, selling alcohol to minors and on top of all that sexual harassment."
Dom and Karra stared at him. "Are you serious?" Karra asked quietly.
Officer O'Connor nodded and looked at her and said quietly "I'm afraid you'll have to testify against him at his trial. Can you do that?" She nodded, then he turned to Ms. Hunter and said "Ms. Hunter you are hereby dismissed from being the principal of this high school." He handed her a paper and said "That is a paper of dismissal signed by the entire school board. I seriously doubt that you'll ever be a principal again."
Ms. Hunter stood up in a rage. "You cant do this to me!" She yelled.
Officer O'Connor ignored her and motioned for Dom and Karra to follow him out the door. "Good day Ms. Hunter."
