Chapter 6
Bella's POV
We pull up to the garage to find a tall blond guy waiting next to a tow truck inside the gate. Mia darts out of the car and begins yelling at the guy, "What the hell are you doing here? Haven't you done enough? Stay away from my family." The man just stands there and takes her abuse without flinching. The expression on his face is one of sadness and regret. His eyes are focused on her. I feel sorry for this guy. Mia can get pretty harsh when she is angry. Just as I get out of the car, I notice Vince come around the other side on the tow truck. Mia turns her attention towards him, "How did you get here? I was supposed to pick you up at eleven."
"Hey Mia relax. The doctor let me leave early." He notices Leon, Aria and myself approaching. "Bella you know that you are in a lot of trouble."
I roll my eyes at him, "What you going to do, spank me?"
Trying to keep a straight face he put his face about three inches from mine, "You are grounded." We both busted out laughing. "I have missed you girl. So is this your baby girl?"
"Yes. This is Aria."
"Can I hold her?" I nod and place Aria in Vince's good arm. He is talking in some unintelligible baby language causing everyone to laugh.
I turn my attention towards the blond guy, "Hi my name is Bella Toretto and you are?"
He extends his hand, "I am Brian O'Connor."
I shake his hand. "Oh you are the cop who tried to bust my brother and his team. That explains why Mia was screaming at you. I am Mia's younger sister, Bella."
"Nice to meet you Bella. I have a lot to tell everyone, but it would be better if we went inside."
We make our way past the truck. I stop when I recognize the car on the back. "That's Daddy's Charger. What happened to it?" I am practically screaming. Leon has his hand on my shoulder telling me that we will fix it and not to worry. He grabs my hand and leads me into the shop. Mia keeps giving Brian an evil look. She must really have it bad for this guy. No one has ever got under her skin like that. I stroll over to her and whisper in her ear, "Mia cut the shit. You like this guy. Now give him a break so that he can tell us what he knows."
"Fine," she is rolling her eyes at me.
I laugh at her and say real loud, "Stop it. You know you still want him." Her face turns three shades of red. Leon is laughing so hard he can barely stand. "Hey Brian you ready to fill us in?"
Brian is standing by the door with a stunned look on his face. Guess he is not used to the way Mia and I handle each other. We walk into the back of the shop and wait for him to begin. "I lied to the team and I will be sorry for the rest of my life. I had no idea what I was getting into when I took the assignment. My job was to get close and figure out if you guys were behind the truck heists, but I got too close to Mia. I respected Dom and when it came down to busting I just couldn't do it. I let him leave. The police have nothing on the team for the heists. I told the people in charge that I had no evidence to connect the team. Both wrecked Civics were removed from the highway before the cops could get to them. If everyone keeps a low profile things should blow over." Tears are welling up in Mia's eyes. Brian moves over to Mia and cups her face in his hands. Looking into her eyes he whispers to her, "I am sorry that I lied to you. Mia please forgive me, please. I love you so much and I can't imagine my life without you in it. Anything you want, I will do it. Tell me how to make this better." She wraps her arms around him and cries into his chest. Brian is stroking her hair and comforting her. Leon, Vince and myself head towards the office to give them some alone time.
