Chapter 6 ; Revelations
"For fucks sake," mumbled Dom. He brushed passed Brian and began walking away.
"No, Dom man, wait." Brian called to him. "Please," he added.
Dom heard the pleading in Brian's voice. He stopped, but didn't turn around. "I have nothing to say to you." He said calmly trying not to loose his temper.
"I'm sorry Dom, I was just doing my job, but it don't mean I don't give a shit about you lot because I do."
Dom turned around and he marched towards Brian. He stuck his left hand around Brian's throat and slammed him up against the soda machine. He pulled his arm back and swung stopping just before his fist made contact with Brian's face, "Fuck you Brian, don't pretend you give a shit about us because that's all you are Brian your job."
"That aint true Dom and you fucking know it aint." Brian said trying to keep his voice down.
"All I know is that your scum Brian, look at you in standing there in your uniform, I let you came into my home man, and you betrayed us all." Dom warned. There was a pause.
"Is she here?" asked Brian. Dom knew he meant Mia.
"It don't matter, 'cause I don't want you to see her and she don't wanna see you," answered Dom, it was a lie but Brian didn't know that, and right now all Dom wanted to do was hurt Brian physically and mentally.
"I'm still the same person Dom," said Brian quietly.
"Yeah Brian, you're still a cop. Stay away from my family or I will hurt you." Dom warned, and he meant it. Dom turned back around and headed off down the corridor. Brian turned and kicked the drinks machine hard in frustration; out popped another soda.

Dom pulled up a chair and sat down by Jesse's bed next to Letty. He couldn't bring himself to tell them about his encounter with Brian, it was the last thing they needed. The only thing that had stopped Dom from thumping Brian was the fact that Brian had helped Dom out in the end, even if much was Brian's fault to begin with. He was also scared that if he started hitting Brian he may not be able to stop, there was so much anger that had built up in the past month inside him he was scared that the same thing that put him in jail would happen again. "Where'd Leon and Vince go?" asked Dom.
"Vince had some stuff to do on his car, and Leon had to drive him. And me and Mia are gonna go shopping, there's a mall just down the road, we'll be back in an hour." Answered Letty.
"Oh, I'll come with you." Dom told her, Letty started laughing.
"Your jokin' right? You hate shopping, you'd just be moaning at me and Letty to hurry up. Nah, you stay here and keep Jesse company." Mia replied, her and Letty got up. Letty gave Dom a kiss on the head, and both of them left the ward. Dom glanced towards the window and focused on a spot. There was an awkward silence.
"Dom, have you got a problem with me or something?" Jesse blurted out.
"What? Course not." Dom answered shortly.
"Really 'cause you wont look at me, and you've barely said two words to me since you got here." Jesse said frustrated at the way Dom was being with him. "Its 'cause you blame me init?"
"What! No that aint it Jesse, its." Dom stopped he was crap at all this emotion shit. "If you must know I feel bad, alright? It's my fault you got shot and I'm feeling guilty. If it weren't for me getting you into all this shit you wouldn't have nearly died." Dom looked at him, Jesse was taken back he'd never heard Dom open up so much.
"I don't blame you Dom, if it weren't for you I'd be nowhere.your all I got.you gave me a home man a real one.and you've given me so much other stuff and I'll never be able to repay you and.well.you get the picture." Jesse tried to explain, his eyes shooting all over the place. Dom laughed, Jesse found this talking shit as hard as he did, Jesse joined in the laughing. They both had a mutual understanding now that didn't need putting into words.

Brian sat back down on a chair beside the young girl's bed. She was reading a magazine. Brian glimpsed at it, it was a racing magazine. "So you into cars huh?" Brian said with a smile.
She looked up at him and saw him smiling. "Maybe, you?" she said quietly.
"Sure as hell I am. I had a Toyota Supra, it was fast- a ten second car, but then.well it's a long story." Brian pictured the scene that occurred a month ago, he'd handed the keys to his Toyota to Dom, so Dom could escape from the FBI. The FBI had a suspicion that Brian had aided Dom but they couldn't prove it, so he was able to keep his job as a cop. He looked at the girl, "You drive?"
"I'm not old enough to have a licence, you should know that." She replied, but Brian knew she was lying, she was being sarcastic to him.
"That doesn't mean you don't drive. I'm not gonna get you in trouble or anything, it's just between you and me," he told her.
"In that case I drive Mazda R-8." She revealed to him smiling, she was still speaking in a low voice but Brian was just happy he'd got her talking to him.
"A Mazda R-8 hey? That's an expensive car, someone must have paid a lot of money for it." He had tried to find out more about her, but Brian regretted it as he watched her clam up again. He decided there and then he wasn't going to push the girl for answers, but just wait until she felt ready to open up to him. "You know what, you need a name so that I have something to call you by instead of just "that girl" or "she". So how about you give me a name, any name. It don't have to be your real one just something I can call you by."
"Charlotte." She answered, "But most just call me Lottie." Brian smiled, he had succeeded in beginning to gain her trust.
