It's been so long…but I have the urge to write. Lucky you! LOL.

Important Notice- I am going to set up a yahoo group for updates and news on WLA and some of my other upcoming stories. You will probably also get sneak peeks at my unposted stuff, lol. Hopefully it'll go along well. I would really appreciate it if you guys left me your email addresses in your reviews if you'd like to be invited and/or join. The yahoo group will also be a place to showcase some of your own fics, about anything basically. I hope I hear from many of you! And thanks a million in advance. =)

A/N: For some retarded reason, fanfiction.net won't center anything, I'm sorry for the inconvenience, but I've tried to fix it and it just doesn't happen.

Now on with the story! *grin*

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

There was an awkward silence in the garage while Dom and Letty got dressed, "So…what does this mean?" Dom asked, wanting to break the tension.

"What does what mean?" she gave him a puzzled look.

"Don't play stupid, you know what."

Letty sighed, "Look Dom…I don't know. I told you, I'm different now…everything is just…different."

"You don't seem that much different," he replied.

Suddenly Letty's eyes grew cold and she pointed at the scar on her arm, "This is how I'm different Dom." Then she took out her knife and waved it in front of his face, "This is how I'm different!!" She shoved the knife back into the strap on her high and stomped out of the small back room.

Dom walked out after her and grabbed her arm, turning her to face him. "That doesn't make me love you any less. That is just something we need to talk about."

"We don't need to talk about anything."

"On the contrary, we need to talk about a lot."

She rolled her eyes, "Whatever Dominic. I'm going to take care of some business. Where are you staying?"

"At hotel; what kind of business?"

"I just have to take delivery on another car I won last week. Nosy ass."

"Damn Leticia, why do you have to be so difficult?"

She smiled, "Because I wouldn't be me if I wasn't."

Dom shook his head, "You want me to come with?"

"Nah, that's okay. I'll be home later, if you want to come over," she blurted, immediately regretting the words once they were out of her mouth.

"I would have come whether you invited me or not," he said, reading her expression flawlessly.

"Ha ha, very funny," she said rolling her eyes again, "I'll see you later." With that she got into her car and drove off, leaving Dom alone with his thoughts.

*******************************************************************

Three weeks passed and Dom tried his hardest to have patience with Letty. One minute she seemed to be warming up to him and then suddenly she turned into the ultimate ice queen. She was purposefully trying to piss him off, probably to get him to go away so that she didn't have to deal with her feelings. Unfortunately for her, it wasn't working, Dom was still there, working to wear down her resolve.

He had spoken to the team and they agreed that they needed a change, so they decided to move to New York. Dom was already looking for houses in the Hamptons or condos in Manhattan. The only one who didn't know was Letty, it was supposed to be a surprise for her. Dom hoped that this would finally melt all the ice between the two of them, because he was starting to think that he couldn't do it alone.

*******************************************************************

"Letty! Letty, are you in there?!" Dom yelled from outside her front door.

"Yeah Dom! I said I'd be right there," she yelled back. "Damn, how many times do I have to say it before he hears me?" she muttered, getting the rest of her clothes on and grabbing a brush. A couple of minutes later she opened the door while simultaneously brushing her hair.

Dom didn't even hesitate before barging in and plopping down on the couch, "Took you long enough."

Letty rolled her eyes. "Of course you can come in Dom…yeah yeah, sit down, make yourself at home," she said to an empty doorway, then turned and gave him an exasperated look.

He just grinned, "Thanks…I think I will."

She sighed, "What are you doin' here Dom?"

"I came to pick you up," he answered.

"For what? Where are we going?"

"It's a surprise."

"You know I don't like surprises Dominic. So just tell me or I'm not going."

"Believe me Let, you'll like this one," Dom replied, then flipped on the TV while Letty finished getting ready. He sat there and channel surfed for 10 minutes, until Letty finally came out fully dressed in all black, as always, with her hair in a pony tail. Dom whistled appreciatively.

"Don't even start Dom, and let's hurry this up because I have to meet Nick at four, he needs help installing some parts," she said grabbing her keys.

"Yeah and I'm sure he needs something else too," Dom muttered under his breath.

"What was that?" Letty's head snapped up to look at him, "What did you say?"

He got up from the couch and started walking towards the door, "Nothing. Anyway, let's go, we're taking my car."

She stood her ground, "What if I wanna take my car?"

"Don't start Leticia," he sighed.

"Well then what did you say Dominic?" she asked.

Dom opened the door and went into the hallway, with Letty close behind him. "I said I'm sure he needs something else too. But just forget it, I don't want to fight with you right now."

"Fine, let's go." She followed him down to the parking lot and got into his car. They drove for a few minutes in complete silence, until Letty decided to turn on the radio. "So are you going to tell me where we're going?"

"To lunch."

"Woooow," Letty said sarcastically, "How mysterious."

"What? It's a nice place," Dom shrugged. They arrived at the restaurant a few minutes after that and went inside. "A table for two by the bay window in the back, please," he said to the head waiter.

"Right this way," the waiter said to Dom, and led them to their table. "Someone will be by to help you in just a minute," he smiled at Letty and walked away.

Letty smiled and looked at Dom, "Nice people here, huh?" She was trying to get him jealous…once again.

"Yeah," he said, not taking her bait.

A waitress came to give them menus and take their orders, "Would you like anything to drink?" she said, smiling at Dom.

Letty sneered at her, "Yeah, two Coronas, thanks."

Catching Letty's look, the waitress backed off and rushed to get their drinks. She came back not long after with two Coronas, "Are you ready to order?"

"No you can come back," Letty snapped at her, and watched as the waitress nodded and left.

Dom smirked and looked at the waitress's retreating form, "Yep…very nice people here."

"Shut up Dominic," Letty said, crossing her arms because her plan backfired on her.

The male waiter came back to their table and bent down near Letty, "Hi miss, I'm sorry to interrupt your meal but, is your name Leticia Rodriguez?"

"Yeah why?" she said.

"There are some people here to see you, if you'll just follow me," he said straightening up and turning around.

Letty got up and followed him, Dom not too far behind. When they got to the front of the restaurant the waiter moved out of the way so that Letty could see the people who were looking for her. "Oh my god!" she said, and then everything went black.

Dom ran to catch her before she fell, but he was too late and she hit her head on the edge of a table. "FUCK!" he yelled, and picked up her head gently. He had a horrible déjà vu moment, this was almost exactly what had happened two years before when he found her on the floor in that bathroom…covered in her own blood.
