Chapter ~ 2~ three weeks later
~ Mia ~

It's been three weeks since Letty died. Things sure have changed a lot. It's hard for me but I'm dealing. I know that even though I may not see her or get to talk to her she's there watching over me but its hard to believe that. Leon doesn't talk much anymore, he seems really hurt as if apart of him has died. Jesse doesn't know how to act around us or Dom so he just goes out and visits his dad in prison a lot more or spends a lot of time on the computer. Vince just keeps to himself a lot more and keeps his distance for me I'm not sure why though. As for Dom he's never around, he leaves everyday and goes to Letty's grave. And if he is home he locks himself in his room that he once shared with Letty. Brian is gone a lot more now. I'm not sure why. He doesn't talk about the funeral or Letty, and sometimes I think he's keeping something from me because 2 days ago I heard him in the bathroom on the phone at 3 in the morning, I'm not sure who he was talking to but I have a feeling that it was another girl and I think he's planning on breaking up with me sometime soon because I heard him tell the other person, "No Mia or the guys have no idea, just give it some time and then we'll tell them" . But then again maybe I'm just paranoid. I have no idea what life is going to be like now. Hopefully given enough time everyone will go on with their lives and things will be the same again. But I doubt it.

~ Dom ~

It's been three weeks since Letty.. Went away. I don't know what to do anymore, my only reason for being on this earth was to love, care, protect, and be there for Letty. But she's not here for me to do all that anymore. I've lost everything, and nothing matters to me anymore, not the races, my car, the shop, the garage, not even the team. Letty was my best friend and my lover. She knew everything there was to know about me. She knew more about me then I will ever know. For the past 2 weeks I've gone everyday to her grave. I lay on top of her grave and kiss her head stone and I tell her everything that has been going on since she has died. I tell her I love her everyday. And that I won't ever find a love sweeter than her. And that, that night that she died I was going to ask her to make it official and be my wife. I've made a promise to myself that I will never fall in love with anyone else and that I will get revenge for her death even if I die trying.
~ Letty's flashback ~

Ok.. Tonight's the night. It's going to be really hard not seeing the guys and Mia for the next 4 or 5 months. But most of all I'll miss my Dom. I love Dom with all my heart and I hate not being with him. But this is just something that I have to do, I've already lost my little brother Tiny 3 months ago because of this situation. And if I don't go through with Brian's plan it could cost me the teams life and especially mine.

~ flashback to the night Letty "died"

"Letty don't go . you can go to Marisol's tomorrow."

"No Dom I have to go right now she needs me ."

"Letty please I have something important to talk to you about."

"Babe.. Please I'll be back in two hours, can't it wait? Please."

"Aight, just hurry back"

"Thanks babe"

Letty walks away from Dom and slips on her black leather jacket. As she begins to walk to the door she turns back around and runs into Dom's arms and gives him a long hard hug and then gently kisses his sweet full lips.

"Damn .. What was that for?"

"Dom..? You know I love you right?

"Yeah...?"

"Ok I just wanted you to know that."

"Ok . I love you too baby"

And just as Letty was about to let him go.. She grips on to him a little harder and whispers in his ear..

"I'll always be here for you."

And with that Letty let Dom go and walked out the door.

~ a couple of hours later~

"Damn. where the fuck is she?" An angry worried Dom shouted at Leon.

"I dunno dawg.. Try her cell again.."

"She don't answer. I have a bad feeling.."

"Yeah I know this ain't like her man"

Dom's cell rings.

Ring ring ring..

"Hello?..."

"Yes. Mr. Toretto?"

"yes .."

"Hello. I'm Mark Lopez with the L.A.P.D. and we need you to come down and identify the body of a Ms. Arletta Rodriguez.

"Whaaaat.?

"We have found a car that we believe to be Arletta's and there was a body inside ... And I'm sorry but . we couldn't get her out in time...."

Dom dropped the phone and fell to his knees.

"No... not Letty ..God please ."
