Lee had fallen asleep in her chair, when the receptionist came over to her.
"Miss ? Your brother is out of surgery and awake now, if you want to see him."
Lee smiled at the woman and rubbed the sleep out of her eyes. Looking at her watch, she could see it had only been about an hour, since she had arrived at the hospital with Letty.
Letty was awake, but made no move to leave her chair. Lee had only gone a few steps, when she realized Letty wasn't following her. Turning around, she looked at her quizzically.
"Aren't you coming ?"
Letty shifted, looking slightly nervous and shook her dark head.
"No. I don't think so."
"Why not ?"
"Your brother and I don't get along so well."
Lee sighed and made a face.
"My brother doesn't get along wit anyone. If he gives you attitude, he'll have to deal with me, okay ?"
Letty though about it for a minute, but caught the look on Lee's face and decided that maybe going would be the better idea.
"All right. I'll come with you."
A nurse led them to a small room, where T.J sat in a bed, looking paler than usual, but grinning like a madman.
Lee ran over to him and threw her arms around his neck, causing him to groan.
"So, I'm assuming you were worried about me ?"
Lee sat back on her heels and scowled at him.
"Not funny, Teej. When are you going to learn to stop being such a dick ?"
"Don't know. Probably never."
T.J continued to smile, until he caught sight of Letty over Lee's shoulder.
The smile dropped from his lips and he crossed his arms over his chest, staring coldly at Letty.
"What is she doing here ?"
"She drove me here. And she was as worried about you as I was, so you should be a little thankful."
T.J glare deepened and he turned in the bed a little, so he wasn't facing Letty anymore.
"I don't care. Get her out of here."
Letty turned to leave, but lee ran over to her and grabbed her arm.
Lowering her voice, so T.J couldn't hear her, she spoke hurriedly to Letty.
"Listen, I'm really sorry about how my brother's acting. Do you think you could give us a few minutes alone ?"
Letty nodded and headed out to the hall. Lee closed the door behind her, but Letty could still hear her screaming in Spanish at her brother.
¡
"idiota de mierda del! ¡ella se siente que realmente malo sobre dejar nos y le no lo están haciendo mejor! porqué está usted tal del asshole ?"
("You fucking idiot! she feels really bad about leaving us and you're not making it any better! why are you such an asshole ?")
"Why usted cuida tanto sobre ella ? Ella nos dejo el !"
("why do you care so much about her ? she left us !")
"Because, ella es nuestra madre, usted los dumbass !"
( Because she's our mother, you dumbass!)
"Del So ?"
( So ?)
"Fuck él, T.J! ¡Usted es un dick molesto y usted realmente necesita conseguir sobre se! ¡sucedió hace casi catorce años! Puede usted no perdonarle el?"
("Fuck it, T.J ! You are a annoying dick and you really need to get over yourself ! it happened almost fourteen years ago ! Can't you forgive her ?")

Dom finally reached the hospital and walked quickly indoors. The receptionist gave him directions to T.J's room and he headed off in that direction, coming up short when he saw Letty standing outside a room, that had a closed door. He didn't really want to talk to her right now, but he supposed it was now or never.
"Letty."
=====================================================================
Letty looked up, surprised at hearing her name and saw Dom standing nearby. She smiled weakly and tried to find her voice. He still caused her to go weak at the knees, even after all these years and these were the moments that she wished she had never given him up.
"Hello, Dom."
"What are you doing here ?"
She gestured at the door, where he could hear muffled screams in Spanish coming from inside the room and shrugged.
"I as at the diner, talking to Mia and then was going to talk to Lee, but she got the call saying T.J was in the hospital, so I offered to drive her here."
"Is he okay ?"
"Yeah. He should be fine, so long as his sister doesn't kill him."
Dom laughed and smiled softly.
"Do I even want to know what's going on in there ?"
"Probably not."
Letty smiled, as well, but then her face turned more serious.
"Listen, Dom. I have to talk to you."
"About what ?"
"About the kid's and everything ....."
Letty was about to say more, but was interrupted by the door of T.J's room flying open and lee storming out.
"Lee, what ........?"
They could both see she was still angry and her eyes were red, like she'd been crying.
"Fuck it. Fuck it all."
Dom moved towards her and put a comforting arm around her shoulders.
"Baby girl, what is it ?"
She shook his arm off and glared angrily at the both of them.
"Just fuck off, okay ? Leave me alone!"
Turning, she started running down the hall. Dom tried to grab onto her, but she pushed him away.
"Just leave me the fuck alone !"
Running through the waiting area, she forced the front doors open and ran off down the street .......
=====================================================================
What could be wrong with Lee ? Tune in next time ( if you're still reading it) and see what happens.
Also, am looking for a beta-reader to give me some ideas.
If you want the job, review or e-mail, 'kay ?
