Chapter 19 ; Breakfast
A/N ---Wow girls and guys I'm still alive! Well here's another chapter for you all. I'm sorry it took so long, except this time I have no excuses, I just kinda got lazy, but hen a week or so ago out of he blue I got another review, and it encouraged me to continue, so here's the next chappie!------- ------
"Guys breakfast is ready!" Mia hollered from the kitchen, as she picked up some serving plates and carried them out into the garden, "Oh and bring some plates and cutlery!" she added.
She placed the plates onto the table, and turned around to see Leon and Jesse racing out the back doors, "Mmm grub, I'm starving!" Leon said enthusiastically. Letty walked out behind them, followed closely by Dom and then Vince came slowly out. They took their seats around the table, each looking longingly at the food.
"Pass me a plate," Dom grumbled, of which none of them answered, "Look will someone pass me a plate," he added with a hint of aggression.
"Dom I told you to grab a plate on the way out," Mia told him as she leaned over the table passing a cup to Letty.
"Why didn't you just bring them out," he shouted at her, feeling extremely pissed off.
"Oh God Dom, why didn't I bring them out, maybe because I spent the whole morning cooking breakfast for you while you've done nothing but moan, maybe because straight after this I have to go out and slave my arse off in a crappy store because you'll wanna go and play with your boys toys, and maybe because after that I'll have to go and spend the whole afternoon working away at school so I can get some sort of decent job, that doesn't rely on diesel!" she shouted, shocking the others into silence. None of them expected Mia to be the one that have an outburst, especially against Dom.
Mia took a deep breath in, she'd always respected Dom, and his work. She'd never before criticised his lifestyle and although she had her worries about Dom racing, she'd never really had any problems with it, the team had fun and it paid the bills. "But that was before," Mia thought, things were changing, her priorities were changing. Inside of her was a new life, and through many sleepless nights she had come to the conclusion that she didn't want her child to grow up in the illegal world of street racing. No, she wanted the best for her child and it to grow up in a safe and normal environment. Therefore Mia figured, she was going to have to leave the team behind.
"Look sorry, I didn't mean it, here take my plate," she apologized thrusting a plate hastily in his direction. But Dom still heard the anger in her voice, "Forget it, I'll get myself one," he said pushing himself up, and making his way towards the house. The rest of the team still sat in silence, each shooting glances in Mia's direction. Letty could see temper burning in Dom's eyes, she could see the tension in his face preventing him from arguing back.
"Well eat then," he said impatiently to the others as he sat back down with his plate.
"We not saying gra. . ." Jesse started.
"No," Dom cut him off.
They all started eating, Jesse talked to Letty about designs for some new cars for the team and Vince and Leon chatted away about some girls they had met in a bar a few days ago While Dom and Mia ate in silence.

Brian was sitting in the back of a cab, Lottie sitting quietly beside him. They drove towards the Toretto house from the hospital. Lottie glanced out of the window, attempting to figure out where they were heading. Brian still felt a bit rough, his head a bit groggy and his chest hurting slightly. But he looked forward to getting home.
"You okay Lottie?" he asked her, noticing she looked a bit nervous. She simply nodded in return, re-treating into her quietness. Brian pushed no further and they rode the rest of the way in silence.
They turned into the road, and Brian pointed out the house to the driver. As Lottie stepped out, Brian paid the driver. He then got out noticing no cars in the drive except for a large un-usual looking truck. Brian stood puzzled for a moment, and then heard some voices coming from the back yard. "Come on Lottie, we're a bit late," he said gesturing for her to follow.

The team sat at the table finishing of their food, Dom had said nothing to the team the whole way through breakfast, and Mia had hardly touched her food. The rest of the team kept talking away, making random jokes trying to lift the tension.
". . . and he kept saying that the car wouldn't go that far. . ." Jesse was explaining, when suddenly Letty interrupted.
"Brian!" She called out as Brian walked into the yard. The rest of the team glanced around.
"Alrite guys, am I too late for breakfast?" He said with a smile.
"No, no sit down," Leon said moving over.
"Err wait I've got a guest with me," he said gesturing Lottie to come out of the side alley, and into the yard. Lottie hesitated for a moment before walking into the yard.
Lottie and the team were both as shocked as each other to see who they saw.
