Everyday for three weeks Priscilla would go to Toretto's for lunch and talk with Mia and Dom would be there. He would be polite but keep his back to them. He listened but didn't say much. This day was different, however.
"Priscilla where did you got those beautiful red roses?"
"I don't know Mia I came out this morning and they were on my front porch with this note."
Priscilla
Just want you to know that I am thinking about you, your are so beautiful. I hope you have a nice day.
"There is no name?"
"Nope."
"Did you see anybody on your front porch this morning?"
"No, I didn't, that is what is weird, I didn't see or hear anybody."
"Well, they are beautiful who ever bought them for you spent a lot of money."
That sat all after noon discussing the roses Dom left for the garage after eating his lunch.
Priscilla was becoming good friends with both Dom's sister and his daughter.
"Dom did you give Pricilla those roses?" Mia asked in the car on the way home.
"Why would I do that?"
"Because you like her papa."
"Dom come on, I see the way you look at her, did you give her the roses?"
"Come on Papa tell us,I really like her papa she is a sweet lady."
Dom just shook his head and laughed a little under his breath as if to say don't be stupid.
The next day another gift of roses was on her porch.
"I can't believe this." Priscilla said to herself
She went to Toretto's and talked with Mia about it. How beautiful they were and who the person could be.
FINALLY CAUGHT
Every day for four weeks roses were on Priscilla's doorstep. With a beautiful note attached. She loved the roses,
roses were her most favorite flower but she really was getting scared. She decided to catch the
person. She asked Mia to come over and stay and not tell anybody her plan. Mia gave her her word.
However by now Mia knew it was Dominic and this was gonna be fun. They had decided to do it on a Saturday night because Toretto's was not open on Sunday's. 5 am
Mia and Priscilla had stayed up all night talking and laughing Little Mia was sleeping at home. At 5 am they were suddenly stopped by a noise on the front porch.
"That's him." Priscilla said
"yeah it is" Mia said trying her best not to giggle knowing full well who it was.
Priscilla had gotten really scared about the flowers and had asked Dom to keep an eye on the place. He said he would but he never saw anybody. She said she was gonna call the police if they didn't stop soon. He said it probably wouldn't last much longer.
"Mia what should we do."
"Okay, we go out the back door and sneak quietly to the front and we can scare him when we scream Dom will hear us and come running."
"Are you sure?"
"Oh yeah there is no doubt he will be here."
"Okay let's do it."
They both walk out the back door and creep around to the front real quiet.
"On the count of three."
"One two three."
With that they both let out this horrible scream.
Dominic hears it and he jumps but when he does he falls flat on his face in the mud.
"Mia what are you laughing at?"
Mia was laughing so hard she was about to pee her pants. There was Dom Mr. Macho laying flat on his face covered in mud after leaving a dozen red roses and a beautiful note.
Dom pushes himself up and looks at the two women.
Priscilla with tears in her eyes
"Dom is this a joke?"
"No, Priscilla it is not a joke, I truly care about you, I was doing this to be romantic."
"Your interested in me?"
"Well, yeah, if you'll have a mud bug?"
Priscilla leaned over and looked for a clean place but could not find one.
"Go home and clean up and come back and I will give you a kiss."
The next day Auntie Mia filled Little Mia in on everything that went on.
"Papa you really like this woman?"
"Yeah I do.
"I like her too."
"I wish I could have seen you all covered in mud that would have been funny."
"Oh you want to see me all covered in mud huh?" Dominic asked his daughter while tickling her. She giggled and and kicked at him to make him stop but the more she laughed the more he tickled her.
"Mia I have a serious question for you?" Dominic finally asked his daughter after he let her catch her breath.
"What?"
"How would you feel about having a mother?"
"I would love it."
Dom kissed the top of her head and went upstairs.
THREE MONTHS LATER
The last three months had been so beautiful. Priscilla could not believe how much of a gentle side Dom had to him. He was so sweet and just so caring. He was not pushy with her he just let things happen and things were happening and happening quick. Their feelings were both so deep that it was unreal. Up to this point however there had been no sex. Priscilla told him only if they were married. Dom could not believe his ears but it got his attention and made him frustrated he had not been used to having to wait he always took what he wanted.
Priscilla was also getting to know Little Mia real well. Helping her with her home work. Spending some real time with the family.
THE PROPOSAL
It was a beautiful night. The stars were shining so bright brighter than usual it seemed.
"Priscilla I want to take you to my favorite place tonight would you go with me?"
"Of course."
Dom went and got a ladder and placed it next to the house and told her to climb. They both got ontop of the roof.
"This is my favorite place and I wanted you to see it."
"I can see why it is beautiful up here."
"Priscilla I have a question for you."
"okay ask."
"Do you mind spending the rest of your life with me?"
"Are you asking me to marry you?"
"Well, yes darlin I am." Dom said in a pretend southern drawl
"yes, I will marry you."
"Let's climb down Priscilla."
Dom and Pricilla climbed down and Dom hugged her so tight and told her he loved her and kissed her deeply.
They went inside the house and told the family. Little Mia was over joyed she would finally have a mommy after years of
not having one. They sat the date for two weeks later.
THE WEDDING
Dom and Priscilla had decided to elope. So two weeks later they drove to Las Vegas and got married in a chapel. They got a room at one of the casinos on the strip.
"Dom would you like to play at little?"
"Yeah but not at one of the tables."
"Oh OK."
Priscilla face turned a bright red and Dom laughed at her.
"Wanna try for a little more red." Dom laughed
They had made their way to the hotel room door. Dom opens it and Priscilla tries to step inside.
"Oh no you don't I have to carry you across."
Dom picks up Pricilla and carries her into the room and shuts the door and locks the world out side.
