Chapter 3
Mia's POV
I stop dead in my tracks when Bella tells Jesse that he is the father. I can't believe what she has just said. She was right. Dom wouldn't understand this. A member of the team got our baby sister pregnant. I just want to know how they hid their relationship from us all. I always know what is going on in the house. She will have a lot of explaining to do when we get home.

Jesse's POV
I am in some kind of dream or something. I see her beside me. The girl I loved. She says that she is home for good. I want to reach out and touch her to be sure that she is real. I have missed her always wondering how she was. No phone calls, no letters. She disappeared from my life.
In her arms, she holds a baby. "Jesse this is your daughter Aria." She is my daughter. I want to touch her. I want to hold them both. I want them to remove this tube so I can talk to her. The drugs are kicking in. My eyelids are heavy. No I am not ready for this to end. I am fighting sleep, but I am losing. The room becomes dark and they are gone.

Bella's POV
Mia is waiting by the door as I come out of the room. She has that look on her face like I am in big trouble when Dom finds out. That I of course already knew.
Jesse's doctor said that his condition is still critical and could change at a moments notice. I give him my cell phone number and the house phone number. I want to stay with Jesse, but I need to get Aria home and in bed. I walk back into the room and give him a kiss on his forehead. "I will be back soon."
Mia and I arrive back at the house. It is quiet and empty. There is no sign of Dom. I set Aria on the couch and carry my bags upstairs. My old bedroom has become the storage room, so I decide to take Dom and Letty's room for the night. Mia is at the door with Aria in her arms, "Would you mind if she slept with me tonight?"
"She seems to like you. Usually she won't let anyone hold her. Yeah she can sleep with you. Where is the team?"
Mia walks over and sits on the bed. "Leon and Letty were heading for Mexico. Dom is heading there too. Vince is in the hospital with a shotgun wound. The team was involved in some truck jacking. The job they tried to pull off this morning went wrong."
"What the hell was he thinking? Jacking trucks, I bet Mom and Dad are looking down on him with shame."
"He wanted to have enough money to take care of all of us. I know it was stupid, but once his mind is made up no one can change it."
"You said that your car was in the desert. Do you want me to go get it?"
"My car isn't the only one out there. Dom and Letty's are there and Vince and Leon's cars are stashed outside of Thermal."
"If you watch Aria I will bring them all home."
"I would love to watch her, but how are you going to drive all of the cars."
"I am going to call in a few friends." I head downstairs and call Hector. He is surprised to hear from me, he agrees to help and says he will arrive in five minutes.

It took a few hours to move the trailers back to the garage and get the cars home. I am exhausted. I just want to crawl into bed and sleep for many hours. My steps are slow. Jesse's blood is still on the sidewalk, his beanie in lying in the grass. As long as I can remember, he has worn this beanie. I can control these tears no longer. I fall to my knees with my head in my hands. "Jesse. Jesse." My cell phone begins to ring. "Hello."
"Miss Torretto my name is Jane Rylan, I am the nurse caring for Jesse Allen. Your friend has suffered a set back. You may want to come to the hospital as soon as possible."
"I am on my way." I jump into Dom's RX-7 and head to the hospital.
