Author's Note: Sorry it has been so long. You can all slap me. I will be on lots this week and next to write more. I hope you all aren't totally pissed at me. I just moved back to California… lots of shit going on. I have a boyfriend… ahhh… that's my life now. I'm going to college 2 days and 2 nights a week. Lots of fun, but on with the story… PS I expect reviews! :~)
Izzy:
I closed my eyes and tilted my head. Licking my lips I leaned up, but felt nothing. Then I heard Dominic's strong voice, "Izzy, I'm sorry. Let's get you in bed."
With that he helped me up and into the bed. He carried me and actually tucked me into the bed. It was soft and smelled of him, sweat and something else I couldn't pinpoint, and my perfume. I looked up at him as he moved my hair out of my face. I scooted over a little and he sat down. It was painful to move suddenly, but I did it anyways.
Watching his mocha eyes I wanted to cry. He must of loved me and I him, but why in the hell didn't I remember? I bit my lip watching him. If only I could remember. "Mr. Toretto," a look of pain crossed his face, "sorry, Dom, would, could you grab the bottle of pills out of the bag from the hospital for me?"
The look of pain had gone a new one came over him. I didn't know what it was, but it wasn't anger or happiness, or even sadness; however, the look in his eyes looked familiar, but I just couldn't place it. He nodded and grabbed a bottle of water from somewhere I couldn't see and brought me two pills. They were to take away the pain and help me sleep.
Dom just rubbed my face with his rough hand. He carefully, almost like he was memorizing my face. There were some scabs from the accident, that I still didn't remember, but he was gentle and that was all that mattered.
"Dom, will you just hold me while I sleep? My pills are gonna knock me out so you can leave, but can you just hold me while I rest, please?" I asked him softly. I was nervous, but I knew he needed me to be someone who I didn't remember. I didn't want to fake it, but I would do my best to remember. Dom just nodded. It didn't need words, but he took his shoes and pants off, leaving on his black wife-beater and black boxer-briefs.
Dom climbed in bed on the other side and he lay on his back as I snuggled up close to him. I wrapped my arm around his chest as I laid my head in the hole of his shoulder. He wrapped that long arm around me and held me tight. His other hand lingered on the hand that was wrapped around him. He took a deep breath and I didn't say anything. I was hurting and the medicine had started to work.
My eyes sight was getting a little blurry around the edges and Dom kissed my head, hair and all. I felt him crying as I fought off the darkness. "I'm sorry Izzy. I didn't do anything with Monica, I swear it," Dom said. He was crying now holding my tightly. I took in a breath as he squeezed me a little too hard. His breath came in sobs as the darkness won and surrounded me.
I saw Emma and I ran to her not hurting. She was in a meadow dancing. She was laughing as butterflies landed on her and flew away. I ran to her, but could never seem to reach that meadow. I fell crying and looked up to see I was driving. I didn't know where I was, just on a freeway. My cell phone rang, then things went quickly. I dropped the phone and a semi hit me and then it went black again. I was standing on a porch seeing a girl kissing someone and I ran off crying. Everything went so fast. I won a race and Dom lifted me up and kissed me. Then he spun me around and I was watching Emma through a fence. She didn't recognize me, and I saw my mom. She ran to my mom calling out to her and I looked down starting to cry. Then I was laying underneath a car, fixing it. I pushed myself out from under it and I saw a sign: "TORETTO'S"
Then it went black again.
Dom:
I stopped crying when she hissed in a breath. I knew I had hurt her again. Her breathing was ragged, but I knew she was alive. She was my baby girl. When I wiped the tears off my face I heard Izzy crying again. She was still sleeping so I rubbed her back until her breathing was normal again.
The pills she had taken in the white bottle were morphine. She must be in a lot of pain to need them. I shook my head and lay back on the pillows. I closed my eyes just for a moment.
When I opened them the sun was going down and it was getting dark. I had slept half the day away. I looked down at Izzy. She lay safely on her stomach now with her hand still holding me. She was home. She had come home to me.
I heard a door close and slowly slid her hand off of my chest as I rose. I laid the covers over her and slipped my pants up. I leaned over and kissed her cheek softly and a small smile came over her face, but she was still asleep.
I smiled and shut the door behind me as I ran down the stairs two at a time. The kitchen door slammed and I walked through the living room and into it. It was Mia in the kitchen. A smile came over my face as I hugged her. She hugged me back and reached up and rubbed my baldhead smiling. I let her go and smiled.
"Is she here?" Mia asked.
"She is sleeping now. She took some morphine and will be out for a little while more I hope," I said sitting on a chair.
"How are you?" Mia asked. Mia was the only one I could talk to. She was my baby sis still, but she never let me lie to her.
"Hurting. I miss her so much and it hurts her when I hold her. It hurts worse that she doesn't remember me," I laughed a little and said, "She even tried to call me Mr. Torretto." Mia smiled and held my hand there.
Mia stayed for a little while. She told me that the guys had gone out for drinks and would be home later. I kissed her head and she drove back to her new house. I knew that sometimes she was here and parked before she remembered that she didn't live here any more.
I waved as she honked and drove out of sight. Walking back in the house I grabbed the mail and sat at the kitchen table going through it. There was some bills, some junk mail, but there was an envelope addressed to Izzy. No return address, but there was a stamp on it. I had an urge to open it, but sat it down, just looking at the writing.
Izzy:
Opening my eyes it was dark in the bedroom. I looked at the dresser and the pictures on it. I was in Dom's room again. I smiled remembering the picture of us kissing. I walked up and saw baby Emma smiling brightly at me through the picture. There was another of Dom lifting me up after I had won a race. I had one that race by pure luck. That wasn't that long ago. I bit my lip not remembering. A second ago I could have told you anything, but now… Tears welled up in my eyes and inundated down my face. I let myself fall to the floor and held myself in a ball. All I knew now was little things here and there. Dom and I loved each other, but I hadn't given myself to him. I still hadn't seen Emma. I was mad at Dom for something big, but I couldn't remember what. My chest hurt badly and I held myself crying.
A/N: here you go… tell me what you think… I will write more asap.
