Letty got out of bed slowly and walked into the hall.
"Letty."
She spun around, looking for the owner of the voice but she saw no one. So she crept forward and down the stairs.
"That's it Letty."
She heard the voice again and she tripped down the last three stairs, landing cat position on the ground floor. She straightened up and walked towards the glass door leading out back. As she reached the glass, putting her hands on it and leaning against it, she saw a dark shape standing on the dock. She grabbed a nearby book and opened the door slowly, stepping onto the wooden planks of the dock. She crept towards the man slowly when she heard the voice again.
"Letty."
"Who the hell are you?" she asked the man in front of her. He turned and she gasped, stumbling backwards. It was Dom.
"Letty. You can't just let it all go. The team is a part of you. I'm a part of you." he said.
"I can..." she whispered, looking up from where she'd landed on the dock.
"You can't just forget about us. About what happened. You can't just turn back time, Letty."
"Why not?" she whispered. He was silent for a while and Letty jumped when he stuck his hand out to help her up.
"Dance with me."
"What?"
"One last time, Let."
"I-fine." she said, sighing. They began to dance slowly and it turned into a fast paced tango of some sort. Letty had no idea how she knew the moves but things just kept flowing smoothly-until the end. Dom pulled her against him roughly and began to squeeze.
"Dom....stop...." Letty gasped as he crushed her waist. Her vision blurred in and out as Dom's grip got tighter and tighter.
"NO!" she screamed and Dom's face turned into Rome's.
"Letty! Letty, calm down! It was a dream!" he yelled as she struggled to get away. She blinked, as if seeing him for the first time, and stopped struggling. She gasped for breath as she stood speechless in Roman's arms. "What was that?"
"I dreamed I was dying."
"You almost did, chica." Rome said.
"What?" she asked. Rome pointed to the ground and she looked down to see that her feet were half off the dock. "Oh my god..." she whispered, turning away from the dock. Roman pulled her away from the edge and set her feet on the dock, letting her stand on her own. He grabbed her arms as her legs gave out and held her up.
"I think we should sit down." he said and Letty nodded. He carried her over to a chair on the dock and set her down before sitting on his own chair. "Now tell me what happened." he said gently.
"I-I heard a voice so I-so I followed it out onto the-the d-d-dock and it was Dom." she began.
"Dom?"
"Jersey's father."
"Thank you."
"No problem. Anyway-we talked and he said I couldn't change the past. And then we danced on the dock and everything was fine until the end. He started squeezing me and I couldn't breath and-" Then she burst into tears.
"I'm sorry-you shouldn't have to see me cry like a baby." she apologized.
"I'm cool with it. It's not your fault, bonita." he said, wrapping her in a hug. She smiled at being called pretty and buried her face in Roman's chest. He softly traced the scar on her face, wondering how she'd gotten it. "How'd you get a scar like this on such a pretty face, Letty?" he asked unconsciously.
"I got in a fight in jail. They had to restrain both of us as well as relocate both of us to seperate floors. She was more fucked up than I was though." Letty said quietly, thinking about what had happened, "Her one eye is swollen shut and-she had to have her lower lip removed."she said, sounding regretful.
"Shit-you did that?"
"Yeah. And I'm not proud of it." she said, pulling away to look into his face in all seriousness.
"Remind me never to get on your bad side."
"You're treading a very fine line then, Pearce." she said, her voice breaking. Rome and Letty looked into each others eyes for a moment before Rome suddenly leaned in and kissed Letty softly. She melted into the kiss as he put his hands on either side of her head and deepened the kiss. They pulled away and looked at each other again before Letty whispered "A very fine line."
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
"Naw, man-he's such a crazy white boy!" Rome said, looking over at Letty from his position on the beach chair. They'd been staring up at the sky, telling each other stories about thier lives and laughing. "Yeah, man. Brian was a crazy bitch."
"Brian?" Letty asked, sitting up. "Brian O'Conner?"
"Yeah-why? You know him?" Rome asked, looking at her.
"He's the reason I spent the last fifteen fucking years in Lompoc!" she hissed. "Oh my god." she said, burying her face in her hands. "Oh my god."
"What?"
"I can't escape the fucker! He's gonna haunt me till I die." she said, getting up and pacing the dock.
"He's not gonna haunt you till you die." Rome said, getting up and wrapping his arms around Letty's waist to prevent her from pacing. "He'll just haunt you till you decide he won't haunt you anymore. I did it, chica-you can too." he said, kissing her forehead.
"That's nice." she said softly and relaxed in his arms.
"Letty?" Rome asked, looking at her face. She'd dropped asleep in his arms. "Come on then." he said, grinning and scooping her up. He took her to her room and tucked her in before heading to his own room.
A/N: I want Rome and Letty to develop feeling s for each other in this story because it helps the ending later so I don't give a shit if you don't like them together-I think they'd look good together anyway. :-P
