Description: Angel's return brings her feelings back to the surface.
Chapter 3
(back at the Toretto house)
"V, I can't believe you let her run off!" Mia yelled.
"Well what the f*ck am I supposed to do?" Vince shot back.
"You're supposed to go tell the girl you're in love with how you feel, you dumbass!" Dom added.
Vince hung his head and was heading for the door when he noticed Letty standing in the doorway.
"You know V, everyone can tell you have feelings for Angel, why can't you for once let your guard down and do what's right?" Letty said softly.
"Maybe it's because I don't think I'm good enough for her. Look at her, she's an angel, she lives up to her name. Letty please tell me what the hell she THINKS she wants me for." he said with a look of despair.
"I'll tell you why she wants you V!" Mia interupted. "That girl has fallen hard for you, she didn't try to it just happened. She can't help it that she hasn't wanted anyone but YOU since she first met you. She's kept her mouth shut about it long enough, drove herself crazy trying to hide her feelings for you long enough! Are you afraid that she may be the one you spend the rest of your life with? Or that you won't be able to whore around anymore?" she yelled as she stormed up to her room and slammed the door.
Vince noticed everyone staring at him, he knew he had to do something, so he got into his car and drove off. What am I supposed to say to her if I find her? How the hell can I tell her I've had feelings for her since day one? Even if I tell her how I feel she'll only think I'm trying to make her feel better. So many questions were running through his head, he couldn't think straight. I'll just drive around and figure out what I'm going to say and how I'm going to say it, then I'll hunt her down even if it takes all night.
(at the pier)
With tears streaming down my face, I slowly turned to see who was behind me.
"How did you find me here?" I asked in a shaky voice.
"If you remember, you would always come here when you needed to think. And so far I'm the only one that could ever find you"
"Leon what am I going to do? I made a huge ass of myself back at the house, how can I face everyone now?" I pleaded.
Leon stepped closer and held me in his arms. He always could make me feel better, even when I felt as if my world were crashing down around me. Before I went away I nearly had a nervous breakdown, Leon was there to keep me from going nuts. Why can't Vince be as sweet and caring as Leon? I had asked myself that question many times, but never had an answer. I let all thoughts leave my mind as I stood there in Leon's arms. I felt him releasing his hold and followed his moves. We walked up the pier, back to our cars where we stood and talked for what seemed like hours.
"So what am I going to say to everyone Leon?" I asked trying not to cry again.
"You can always just walk in and go straight up to your room, let yourself calm down and deal with it tomorrow. You need to get some rest anyway, you look like hell." He said with a smartass grin.
"Gee thanks so much for letting me know how bad I look." I shot back with playful sarcasm.
"C'mon gimme a hug and we can head for home." Leon chimed as we embraced.
Leon had just given me a kiss on my forehead when I noticed Vince's car parked a few feet away from us. What the hell is he doing here, trying to make it worse?
"Leon, why is Vince here?" I said as I pointed to his car.
"I don't know baby, let's go find out." he said as we headed V's way.
When we reached Vince's car, I could see the anger on his face. What the hell crawled up his ass and said boo? I thought to myself.
"Hey brother, what are you doing here?" Leon asked.
"Well, I thought I would look for Angel to make sure she was alright, but looks to me like she's doin' just peachy." Vince said in an evil tone.
"And just what the HELL is that supposed to mean V?" I asked sharply.
"Yeah dawg, what are you so upset about?" Leon asked confused at V's statement.
"Nothin' brother, nothin' at all." Vince replied while staring through me.
"We were just headin' for home, you comin' dawg?" Leon asked Vince.
"Nah brother, I think I'll go find some action. Looks like you got this taken care of anyway." Vince said with a growl.
"F*ck you V" I said as I turned and walked to my car.
"Sorry babygirl, you couldn't handle it!" Vince yelled back and noticed I was flipping him off.
When I reached my car I got in and put my new Saliva cd in the deck. After I started the car and revved it a couple times feeling it's power, I pulled up next to Leon and Vince, stereo blaring, all I could do was look over at Vince and blow him a kiss.
"See yaaaa." I said as I peeled away from them.
Chapter 4
The further I got away from them, the more I could feel the hurt rise in me from the way Vince had treated me. GOD! They are so damn lucky I love my car or I'd have the b*tch wrapped around a damn tree by now! I thought to myself. With the music searing through me, the words to the song hit me hard.
I hear a voice say "don't be so blind" - It's telling me all these things that you would probably hide - Am I your one and only desire? - Am I the reason you breathe - Or am I the reason you cry? - Always, always, always... I just can't live without you - I love you, I hate you, I can't get around you - I breathe you, I taste you, I can't live without you...
With the words running over and over in my head, getting louder and louder, I began bawling once again. Oh God, help me please. Make me forget about him, I can't take it anymore, these feelings are killing me! I screamed . I hadn't noticed how fast I was going until I saw the cherries flashing in my rear view mirror, I looked at my speedometer, I was runnin' 120mph. Oh sh*t! I'm in deeeep trouble now. I thought to myself as I came to a stop on the side of the road. I didn't think a cop ride could go that fast, how the hell did he catch me?
"License and registration please" the officer demanded.
"Yeah, I know the routine" I said as I reached over and got them out of the console and cussing the cop under my breath.
"Excuse me, what did you say?" the officer asked with attitude.
"I didn't say anything officer, here is what you asked for." I said as I handed him my license and registration with a fake smile.
The music was still playing but at a much lower volume. The words played over and over in my head causing more tears, I didn't even notice the officer talking to me. All I wanted was for him to hurry the hell up so I could get out of there.
"Miss? Are you alright?" the officer asked.
"Yeah, why?" I answered with tears streaming.
"I've asked you quite a few times if you were alright and you didn't answer me." He said in a stern tone.
"I'm sorry Officer, bad day I guess. I didn't mean to ignore you." I said.
"That's ok this time. Um, when I ran your name through the computer it said if you were to get into any trouble, the officer on the scene was to contact an other officer by the name of Brian O'Conner. So I did just that, he said he was on his way and not to let you go until he arrived." The officer stated.
"Oh just great!, my day just keeps getting better and better by the damn minute" I blurted out.
"I'm sorry?" the officer said puzzled at my reaction.
"Nevermind, sorry, it's not your fault." I said while trying to wipe the tears away.
When Brian finally pulled up, he got out of his car and said a few words to the other officer then made his way to my car.
"Ok Angel, time to get you home" Brian said softly.
"I don't wanna go home yet Bri. You didn't tell the others about this did you?" I asked.
"Just Mia, she was next to me when I got the call, sorry." He said.
"It's ok, I know Mia won't say anything, she'll just yell at me a little." I said with a grin.
"Ok, if you're not going home then where ARE you going?" Brian asked with concern in his voice.
"I don't know yet, just driving around." I answered.
"Well keep your foot outta the carb this time, ok? And don't be too late, you know how Mia worries"
"I know, I know. I won't be too late, just tell her that I have to think a little more and make sure NO ONE finds out about this, ok?" I pleaded.
"Ok, I'll tell her, be careful Angel"
"I will Brian, don't worry" I said with a fake ass smile.
~~~~~~~~~
Leon walked in the front door and saw Mia, Letty, Dom and Vince sitting in the living room. Everyone looked up as Leon slammed the door. Vince sat there glaring at him while the others were trying to figure out why Leon was so p*ssed.
"Hey Vince, I thought you were gonna look for some action, and how the hell did you beat me home?" Leon demanded.
"None of your damn business!" Vince shot back as he stood to leave the room.
Before Leon could say another word Dom stepped in.
"What's up with you two?" Dom asked them.
"Why don't you ask Leon?" Vince replied with a growl.
"I'm asking both of you!" Dom snapped.
"I have no idea why he's so p*ssed, I was fine 'til him and Angel had words" Leon said.
"Angel, you found her? Where?" Letty asked as she leaped off the couch.
"I found her at her favorite 'thinking' spot and while we were standing at the cars talking, Angel noticed V sitting in his car. So we walked over to him and it seemed like all hell broke loose!" Leon yelled as he threw his hands in the air.
"Ok, so why are you so p*ssed V?" Dom asked. "And don't tell me nothin', I know you too well!" he added.
"You guys wanted me to go do 'the right thing', well I tried! But when I found her, she was in HIS arms!" he yelled while pointing to Leon.
"So what V, I always hug Angel, what's wrong with that? She needed a shoulder to cry on thanks to you brother!" Leon shot back confused.
"Do you always kiss her too?!?" V asked, fists clenched at his sides.
"Kiss her?" Leon questioned. "I kissed her on the forehead V! What the f*ck is the big deal?" he added.
"Her forehead? It looked like you were in a liplock with her!" V snapped.
"Oh hell no V!, I wouldn't take advantage of her like that, and for the record Vince, she's in love with YOU!!!" Leon screamed.
Vince opened his mouth to say something but no words came out, he looked at Leon then to everyone else.
"I'm sorry brother, I just thought.." Vince said softly.
"Well you thought wrong bro, Angel loves you with all her heart, even though you treat her like sh*t. I was just trying to make her feel better is all" Leon said. "But I do accept your appology." He added.
"I think it's time her and I had a long talk, where is she?" Vince asked Leon.
"The way she sped off I figured she would have beat me here" Leon said with concern. "She hasn't been here yet?" he asked.
"NO, she hasn't!" Letty, Dom and Vince said all at once.
"Maybe she's out driving and thinking, you know how she is when she's upset" Mia chimed in.
"No, somethings wrong" Leon said as Brian walked in the door.
Before Brian could even get the door closed, Vince and Leon both asked Brian if he had seen Angel. When Brian told them no, both Vince and Leon ran out the door and sped away in their cars.
