Part 3…..
Dominic walked out to see Jordan getting daintily out of the nice car, her expression a satisfied smile. She had her back turned to him and he loved how her hair looked like spun gold in the setting sun. He scolded himself for getting off track and kept his fast stride to reach her. He had a grimace on his face, the one that usually told her she was in trouble.
"Anyone got popcorn? I though the fireworks only came out at night." Roman tried hard to hide his proud grin of Jordan as he got slapped by Letty, who was chewing on her lip in nervousness for Jordan.
"Shhh, man." Leon said, his body stiffing in up as they watched the two get closer to each other. Dominic was almost to her now.
"That your car?" Dominic asked, catching Jordan off guard. She hadn't known that the others were already back and she was checking out the cars extras.
"What?" She asked, turning around, a smile on her face.
"I said is that the car that you jacked? Without telling me?" Dominic asked, his voice tone and expression unreadable.
"Yeah. You got something to say bout it?" Jordan asked, not sure if she wanted to ask that question or not but did anyways. She stared at him, not backing down as he circled the car, then her. Inside, she was shaking as to what he was going to say. She just knew he was going to break into a yell at any moment.
"Nothin." He said, stopping in front of her.
"That's too bad." Jordan said, almost disappointed he wasn't even going to yell at her. She had at least expected some kind of attention, be it good or bad.
"I got nothin to say bout the car. You, on the other hand, are on my list." He said, making her do a double take.
"That's a good list or a bad list?" She asked, knowing he was getting ready to let her have it for doing this without even telling him.
"That's for me to know, you to find out." He said, scooping her up in his arms and sitting her on top of the hood, making her giggle.
"IS that so?" She asked, stroking his baldhead as he kissed her.
"Yup. You didn't tell me you knew how to drive." He whispered in her ear.
"It's called a surprise." She whispered back, her head down as he sent chills down her spine with the whispers.
" I like those surprises. I want more of those." He grinned at her, making her feel all weak-kneed.
"I can do that. I have one more before the end of the week." She nodded, kissing him to keep him from asking what it was.
"HOLY SHIT." Letty said, throwing up her hands in shock and getting odd or rather, confused looks from the group.
"I don't know how she does it." Letty shook her head.
"Does what?" Tej asked, rubbing his head as he woke up.
"How she gets away with the shit she does." Letty replied, the group still watching them.
"Come on, Guys. Let the lovebirds be." Vince said, putting an arm around Letty as they closed the window they had been watching.
"How you feelin, brah?" Roman asked, looking at Tej.
"You know, the normal for getting shot in the knee with a tranq." Tej replied, his voice normal. "HOW THE HELL YOU THINK I FEEL? What was up wit that, man?" Tej asked, his yell more loudly than he had been before, his mood changes catching the crew off guard.
"It was an accident, man." Roman tried to hide his grin.
"Well, accident, huh? We'll see how much an accident when I retaliate." Tej rubbed his still stinging knee. Letty and her brother left the room, her bursting into laughter once she made it to safer headquarters.
"Dammmmn.. He's grumpy." Letty laughed, holding her stomach and trying to stop.
"You okay, Sis?" Her brother asked, looking at her in concern.
"Yeah. Why?" She asked, sitting down to rest her tired feet.
"Just worried bout Dom and how you are doin." He sighed, knowing it couldn't be an easy subject with her. He hated how she never talked about how she felt.
"I'm fine. J's chill. It's all good." She said, lying back on the couch.
"Odd for you to be so settled." Her brother sat in the chair that was next to the underground den.
"Yeah, you known after all those years of puttin up with his cheatin ass, it's easy to let go. I got plans." Letty promised, closing her eyes and leaving it at that. In the other room, Tiffany had pulled in and was glad to see Jordan had made it there first. They had been racing and she had won, fair and square, not even getting a head start.
"Brian here?" She asked, starting to wonder where her brother and Ice were at this point.
"Nope. We can't get an answer on the phone with him or Ice." Roman said, walking out to greet his home girl.
"I see J made it first. Where she at?" Tiffany asked throwing Roman the keys to let him pull it up the semi's ramp.
"Inside telling them all how she learned to take over the car and shock the shit out of them." Roman laughed, seeing Tempest pull in, her tires squealing and her speed so fast she slid in sideways, just barely stopping in front of Roman in time to not hit him. "Do I look like Road kill?" He asked, adjusting his collar, trying to not show how much fear she had just put into him at that moment.
"I decided to let you live." Tempest laughed, getting out and throwing him her keys. She started for the door, Roman calling after her.
"Do I look like valet? Shit." He yelled, then muttered the last part to himself.
"Poor boy. He's so confused on his identity apparently." Tempest walked in shaking her head.
"Did you happen to see Ice or Brian?" Tiffany asked, her feet propped up on the table as she sat back relaxing. Leon, who had been sitting beside Tiffany, looked at her, then thought on what he should say to her. He knew he was already causing her problems, but he wanted to have his chance with her.
"Ha, if I did, I woulda run his ass of the road." She retorted, her head held up indignantly and earning a 'don't go there' look from Tiffany. "I'ma go take a shower." She said, heading to the bathroom of the makeshift house the crew kept.
"She's hot." Leon said, his wandering stare still staring after her, even with her being gone.
"She's Ice's Hot." Tiffany said, sitting back coolly and folding her arms. "She's ta-ken." She emphasized, making Leon look at her, as if almost hurt.
"She started it." He said defensively.
"Yeah, I know." Tiffany said, in a softer tone, him being close to her. "But you gotta let her come to you or you'll get your heart broken, Le. I'm trying to play triple sides here and I just want it to al blow over without tossin the rest of the group in the tornado." Tiffany said, knowing that the two of them breaking up was likely and that in the midst of it, all hell was going to break loose.
"Yeah, she's a storm." Leon agreed, knowing what Tiffany was trying to do.
"The whole thing is gonna blow up like a damn volcano o when it comes to a head and I don't want you getting hurt by the lava. I know you know how mad Ice can get and I know you know how much he loves her." Tiffany looked at him, seeing Leon look down like a scolded child.
"Yeah, I know" Leon nodded and threw a piece of paper he had been toying with the whole time in frustration.
"I bet you'll get your chance, judging by my bro. I just don't want you to be the one to initiate anything. That way he can only hold it against Tempest." Tiffany sat up and readjusted her shirt. She hated being caught in the middle like this and she knew it was just as hard on Leon. But, he also knew Tempest and how she was so he knew what he was getting himself into, she reminded herself. Jordan's giggling made the two stop and look up at the couple acting as if they were newlyweds and getting a groan out of Leon seemed to make Dominic's smile widen.
"Problem?" He asked, carrying Jordan sideways, her legs over his arms.
"Nope." Leon shook his head, not going to bother.
"Still no word from your boy, tiff?" Dominic asked, his eyebrow raised.
"No, why don't you call him?" She asked, sitting back and folding her arms.
"I would but I got this problem to deal with…" Dominic shrugged, trying to look innocent, making Jordan grin and nod in agreement.
"Get outta here. You two are sickening." Letty came in, throwing her towel at Jordan playfully. This made Jordan crack up and she shook her head.
"I didn't say a word to you, did I?" Jordan pretended to be mad.
"Yeah, that laugh of yours is loud enough to hear a mile away." Letty teased, flicking her hair as she walked past.
"Blah, blah , blah. You're just mad cause of that car I was drivin." Jordan teased, getting down so Dominic could make a call.
"You know, you might be right on that note. Maybe I can take it out for a drive." Letty mused, trying her hardest to rile Dominic as he was on his cell phone. He ignored her and she left it at that. "J, come show me this car." Letty yelled, heading outside. She was grabbed, and her mouth was covered in an instant.
"Letty, stop playing games." Jordan came out, non suspecting, knowing that she was more than safe with all the crew around and people watching out for cops and all.
"Letty?" She asked, starting to turn to go inside. She felt a jab in the back and turned around, ready to scream.
"Don't say a word and you might come out of this okay. Now, you are going to call your friends out here and help us or you're going to go meet someone you don't like very much at all." A voice whispered harshly in her ear and she could only hope they already knew they were here. It didn't seem like anyone would have suspected this here, this time. It was all she could do to keep from passing out due to fear, her knees were weak and she debated struggling or handing over her team.
A/N: Yeah, I know short, lol. I tried. Things have been more than hectic and sickness always slows a person down, lol. Anyways, I would be more encouraged if I got some reviews, lol. So hit that button and make my day, pretty pretty please? Haha, later y'all. CHEER
