Deceived by Appearance: Chapter 14: Letty's POV:

Tk pulled away and looked me in the eyes. "Shut up, Letty! Don't say that!" she said sternly.

"Why not?" I replied, my face red with tearstains, "I messed everything up anyway! I don't have anything left to live for except a fucked up boyfriend and abusive bastard of a brother!"

"Yes, you have at least one person to live for."

"Yeah? Who the hell is that?"

"Your best friend," Tk replied, giving me a small smile. I looked at her, a tear rolling down my cheek. She wiped it away and continued smiling.

"You're not leaving without me girl. We made a promise to each other that we would stick together through end, remember?"

"We made that promise when we were six," I chuckled, "After I beat the shit out of that little rich boy and you were the witness."

"Yeah well, that promise still stands today. `Through the end`, remember?" she smiled.

"Yeah. I remember," I smiled back. We hit fists and grinned.

"You showed that Toretto guy! What a an asswipe!" Tk laughed.

"Yeah. What did you say to him anyway?"

"I just told him that he hurts you again, I kill him. But in a more..meaningful way," she smirked, " 'Cause you know, girl, I got your back."

"Thanks Tekara," I grinned.

"You would do the same for me," she smiled, "So we're not going to barbecue, huh?"

"Oh, we're gonna go," I nodded, smirking, "but we're the only ones that's probably gonna have the most fun."

"I can't wait," she grinned. I smiled and put my keys in the ignition.

"Are you going to the funeral?" I asked her, pulling into the road.

"Yeah," she nodded, "it's Trish, yeah, but she's not really that bad..I guess."

I shook my head, smiling. Who can replace my Tk? She's one of kind.

The next morning, my family and I were at the cemetery for Trish's funeral. I stood by Tk, who had her hands clasped in front of her, looking at the casket.

I looked over and saw Dom walking towards the session. He squeezed his way in front and stood by my aunt. He took the same stance as Tk and glanced at me. I quickly turned my head and focused on the casket. The whole time, he kept staring at me with sorrowful eyes. I tried to avoid it but it was too hard. I kept fidgeting. He made me feel really uncomfortable. Tk saw this and gave Dom a menacing glare. He stared at her and turned away, looking down. I gave her a thankful smile. I failed to notice Johnny looking at both of us.

When the funeral was over, I told Tk I would pick her up later to go to BBQ and walked off toward my car. Dom ran up to me and grabbed my arm, turning me around. "Letty, please can we talk?" he asked, his eyes hoping I would say yes.

I shook my head. "No."

"Letty, please! I'm sorry!"

"Don't be sorry. I should be sorry. I should be sorry that I fell for a fucked up lying bastard like you!" I growled.

"Letty-"

"TORETTO!"

I looked to my side and saw Johnny charging towards us. "Oh shit," I whispered to myself. Dom looked at me confused.

"Toretto! What the fuck are you doing with her?!" he yelled, eyeing Dom.
