AN: Thanks for all of the reviews, I love to know what you think. Here's the next chapter, it's pretty long.

~ * ~ * ~

" What the hell is going on?" Dom asked with his blood boiling.

" Oh shit. This sucks. What are you guys doing here?" Joey asked, feeling very uncomfortable.

" We came to have fun. We didn't know you and him would be here." Vince said as he give Brian and nasty look.

" Hey! Leave him alone." Joey told Vince.

" Are you gonna explain why you too are together or not?" Letty asked.

" I'm working on a case and Brian is my partner. He has to do this case to stay out of prison for saving your asses." Joey explained.

" I don't have anything against Brian but I do against you." Dom said to Joey, shocking everyone that it doesn't piss him off to see Brian but why would it, Brian saved him from going to jail again.

" Let's go guys." Dom said, everyone followed.

" Wait." Joey said causing everyone to stop. " You guys came out to have fun, you can still do that. I can go." Joey said, wanting everyone to get what they want, she wants her family to be happy.

Before anyone could say something, Brian stepped in. " No, Joey doesn't have to go anywhere. You guys need to forget about the past and future and just live in the now, here in this moment and just forget that Joey's a cop and just be happy for tonight." Brian said to everyone, making Joey want him even more, he stood up for her, why would he do that, she wonders.

" Yeah can you forget your pissed at me for one night?" Joey asked Dom, wanting nothing for him to say yes, it could be their first step to being family again.

Dom thought it over, what harm could it do. He is tired of being at the hotel. " Ok, just for tonight." he finally said.

" Good now the party can begin." Letty said.

" Yeah start without us. Joey can I talk to you?" Mia asked as she grabs Joey's arm and pulls her to the back.

" What's up?" Joey asked as Mia finally let's her go.

" What the hell is going on with you and Brian?" Mia asked with anger in her voice.

" Whoa clam down tiger. Nothing is going on, chill." Joey said as she sits in down in a chair.

" I saw you guys smiling and laughing together, then he stood up for you in front of Dom, why would he do that?" Mia asked, hating what she saw between Brian and Joey.

" I don't know , ask him. What is wrong with you? Are you jealous?" Joey asked, trying to understand why Mia's so pissed. It's not like she knows how bad Joey wants Brian, that hearing his name turns her on, Mia doesn't know any of that.

" No, I'm not jealous. I don't want you to get hurt." Mia said, lying the whole time.

" You have nothing to worry about. Me and Brian are friends…sort of. We're working this case, after it's over I might never see him again." Joey said, hating the thought of never seeing him again, his eyes, his smile.

" Yeah I guess your right, let's go back to the party." Mia said, feeling better and wanting the case to be over so Joey and Brian aren't around each other anymore.

" You go ahead, I'll be there in a minute." Joey said.

" Alright." Mia said as she left.

Joey stayed in her seat, she doesn't feel like partying right now. The thought of never seeing Brian again, makes her sad, even angry.

" Hey." Brian said after he walked up behind Joey and grabbed her shoulders.

" Oh shit." Joey said as she jumps up.

" Sorry for scaring you." Brian said as he try's not to laugh, but it didn't work.

" Don't laugh at me." Joey said as she punches him in the shoulder.

" Owww." Brian said as he stops laughing.

" Don't be such a baby. Why are you here?" Joey asked.

" The race is gonna start any minute." Brian said.

" I really don't want to go back out there. Seeing everyone and knowing no matter what I do, Dom will always see me as the enemy." Joey explained as she sits back down.

" I'm sorry your so down." Brian said as he sits next to her.

" Thanks, I guess. Let's go get this race over with, so I can gloat and tell you how much you suck." Joey said as they both stand up.

" Keep talking, I'm gonna get your ass." Brian said.

" Yeah, whatever, pretty boy." Joey said as they reach the front.

" 2 minutes." Tej called out.

" See you at the finish line." Joey said with a big smile as she walks towards her car.

" What ever let's you sleep at night." Brian said to her before he got into his car.

" 1..." Tej called out as everyone revs their engines. "…2...3 go!" Tej yelled, and everyone was off.

" Your ass is mine." Brian said as he came up behind Joey, who is in first place.

" Oh no you don't O' Conner." Joey said as she takes a sharp turn.

" Your cute, but your not that cute." Brian said as he passes her.

" Fuck." Joey yelled as she try's to pass him.

" I told you I'd have your ass." Brian said as he pushes his NOS buttons.

" Ugh!, damn you." Joey said as she pushes her NOS buttons, seconds later Brian crossed the finish line, then Joey.

" I told you I'd win." Brian whispered in her ear as he stands behind her. She feels his body against her back and it's driving her crazy.

" Whatever." Joey said as she walks away. She went to the back of the inside of the garage, where a small crowd of the party is.

" Hey." Suki said as she walks up to Joey.

" Hey. I thought you were gonna race tonight." Joey said.

" I didn't feel like it and there's a whole bunch of people that wanted to race. I heard Brian won." Suki said.

" Yeah whatever. I don't care." Joey said, pissed as hell.

" Don't be mad, it just wasn't your not." Brian said as he put his arm around her and pulled her closer.

" Why dose he keep touching me!" Joey's head screams.

A couple of seconds later he let's her go.

Dom and Letty are doing their own thing. Jesse and Jimmy are talking about the different technology of cars. Vince and Leon are mingling with the girls. Tej is outside hosting more races. Brian, Joey, Suki, Mia and Rome are in the back.

" I got an idea, something to spice up this party." Suki said to the small crowd. " Let's play truth or dare, but my way I ask the questions and issue the dares." Suki said, everyone agreed. " Ok, let's see…Rome, truth or dare?"

" Truth." Rome said, not believing he was agreeing to this.

" Ok. This is for the ladies of the crowd, now you now what type he is. Have you ever slept with a girl and never called her back? And remember, you must tell the truth." Suki said.

" You go me. I have." Rome said as half of the crowd cheers and the rest boo.

"Ok next is…" Suki said as she searches the crowd.

" Joey, truth or dare?"

Joey thought it over, truth can cause problems, Suki knows a lot. Little did she know so could dare.

" Ok, I'll bit, dare." Joey said.

" I was hoping you'd say that. I dare you to kiss Brian, open mouth." Suki said with an evil grin. Mia stood in the corner, hoping Joey wouldn't do it.

" Your kidding right?" Joey asked.

" Nope." Suki said as Joey gave her the ' you bitch face'.

" Ugh, fine!" Joey said as she grabs Brian and pulls him into a kiss.

AN: Well… What did you think!!! I had a lot of fun writing this chapter, I hope you liked it, let me know what you think and sorry for such a long chapter, it wouldn't make sense if I cut it off.
