Decieved by Appearance: Chapter 8: Letty's POV:
A couple hours later, I came back to the hospital ro find my parents and Johnny there. Johnny had a stern face as he leant against the wall, having the same stance as yesterday. My mom was crying into my dad's chest and my dad had tears streaming down his face, holding her. "What's wrong with you guys? Mom, dad. Why are you crying?" I asked, concerned.
My mom turned to me. Her face and her eyes were completely red from crying. "Letty...your sister..she's...Letty she's ...," my mom stuttered, crying even harder.
"What, Mom?!" I asked her, afraid of what she's gonna say.
"Letty she's....she's gone, Letty."
"....What?" I asked her again, tears forming in my eyes.
"...They couldn't help her. They tried everything to keep her with us...but...it all failed."
"No. No...this can't be happening! It..it can't. They have to try harder!"
"They tried eveything."
"Well everything's not enough!" I cried, my voice cracking. "They have to make her breathe again! It's their fuckin' job!"
"Letty-" my dad tried, reaching out to me.
"NO!!" I yelled, backing away from his touch. I ran to Trish's room and rushed inside.
Everything was quiet. Trish was just laying in her bed...not moving at all. I slowly walked up to her. Her lips were blue, her skin pale. I touched her cheek and shivered. She was so cold. Tears fell freely down my face as I laid my head down on her chest, listening to nothing. "How could you?" I whispered. "I told you not to die on me. I told you just to hold on for me but you couldn't even do that for me, now could you? You never did anything for me anyway except bitch at me so why the hell am I cryng? I'm crying because....I love you. You're my sister and I love you. That's why I'm crying. I'm sorry. I'm so sorry. If...Trish, if I let you have Dom...would you come back? Just please come back. Please, Trish. Please come back." I cried into her chest, slowly falling into an unwelcomed sleep.
I dove to the `Toretto` store hoping to find Dom there but I found only Mia. "Hey, Letty!...What's wrong?" she asked., noticing my tear- stained face.
"Where's Dom?" is all I could say.
"He's at the garage. Here," she gave me the directions. "It says `DT Automotive` on the building. You can't miss it.'
"Thanks, Mia," I said taking the directions. "I'll talk to you later."
"Ok. See ya." I ran to my car and drove off to DT Automotive.
When I got there, I saw the three guys that Mia was talking to at the party. They looked at me and smiled with concern. "Where's Dom?" I asked them.
"He's in the office," one of the guys pointed to the back. I nodded a thanks and walked into the office.
I saw Dom sitting at his desk, talking on the phone. He looked up at me and his smiling face turned into a worried one. He told the person that he was talking to that he would call him back and hung up. He got up and walked towards me, taking me in his arms. "You ok?" he asked me.
"Can we talk?" I asked him, looking up at him.
"Yeah."
"Let's not talk here," I told him. I didn't want any of the guys to listen in on us. He took my hand and led me to his car.
"Can we go in two separate cars? I don't think I'll be coming back," I asked him.
"Yeah, ok," he answered, confused. He told the guys that he would be back and and we got in our cars and drove off, with me following Dom.
He led me to this beautiful beach. There wasn't anyone there, atleast anyone I could see. We got out and Dom walked over to me. He took my hand and walked over by the ocean. We sat down quietly, waiting for either one of us to speak. I decided that I would go first. "Dom," I said, breaking the tension. He looked at me.
"Trish...Trish is..dead, Dom," I tol;d him, feeling the tears come again.
"What?" he looked at me in disbelief.
"She's....dead..Dom," I said slower.
"H..How?"
"She committed suicide."
"What? Why?"
"I guess she felt more for you than you know. When she saw me in bed with you, she just lost it and slit her wrists."
"Oh my God."
"Yeah, and it's all my felt."
"No it's not, Letty."
"Look, would you just admit it!" I looked at him suddenly feeling an angry rush over my body. "If I hadn't gone to your store and fell for you, none if this would have happened!"
"Letty-"
"No!"
"Would you just shut up and let me talk!" I did. "Letty, it's not your fault, ok! You didn't do anything wrong. You can't help who you fall for. Believe me. I know." He took my hand and and carresed it with his thumb. "Letty...I love you," he admitted suddenly. My eyes went wide. "W...What?"
"I love you," he said a little bit slower. I softened but not completely.
"You....no....you can't....don't...don't do this, Dom. Please don't do this," I said, holding my head with my hands, shaking it a little.
"Why can't I," he asked, confused.
"Just don't make this harder than it already is, ok!"
"What am I making harder? Letty, I'm just telling you how I feel."
"Dom...we can't."
"We can't what?"
"We can't be together," I looked at him with tears falling out of my eyes.
"Why not?"
"Because if we were together, I'll just feel even more guilty then I already do. I can't betray my sister, Dom. I can't. I'm sorry. We just can't," I said, getting up and walking towards my car, crying the whole way. Dom was watching my back the whole way. "Sister?"
