All right, so I noticed on the last chapter that I said that the bold was Stacey's yet there was no bold. The first two paragraphs were hers. There was no way that I would have been able to even start that chapter with out her.
I also wanted to say that the story is taking this turn and going the way that it is due to some great ideas from Cheer. Thanks to her and Stacey for the help.
As always the bold writing is Stacey's thank you chica
"You have gotten big munchkin." Brian said looking at me I am sure he was thinking that I don't think I was the same 2-year-old that he remembered. When I was littler I was so like so Mia, but now I am sure people think that Letty is my mom.
"Funny haha, I ain't no damn munchkin." I said kind of mad.
"You Bullit you need to get you ass in here and finish this car, as much as I love being about to meet your friends and being nice, get your ass to work," Tej yelled from next to a Honda Civic.
"You guys feel like working on some cars?" Brain asked us.
"Sure," Jesse said all excited to get dirty.
"Speak for your self, I wouldn't mind going and seeing what she is spraying over there?" I told him while pointing to Suki.
"Tread lightly she likes to bit," He told me then left with Jesse to work on some cars.
"Hey Suki is it?" I asked as I went over to where she was now sitting at a desk looking at some designs.
"Yeah, what's it to you?" She asked.
"They said that you might need some help over here." I told her not wanting to tread into her territory unwelcome.
"I don't know you done any of this before?" She asked me smirking.
"Yeah, my dad owns a garage and I do most of the spraying." I told her with pride almost.
"Ohh, so you think you can take care of this one for me?" She handed me a design that had so much work and little details and things hidden in things that I thought I was going to scream.
"I have never seen something like this before, I know some one that would pay hella good money for this. You interested in selling it. Hell you could keep the design and just do it in vinyl for me." I told her thinking about Aunt Letty.
"I don't know, show me what you can do and then we can talk." She told me, this I took was my cue to get in there and make it work.
We had been in Miami for about an hour when my cell phone started to ring. I looked at the caller ID and saw that it was my dad.
"Shit, I forgot to call and tell my dad that we made it into town and all, excuse me," I told her while walking over to my Jeep and answering the phone.
"Hey Dad." I said as excited as a kid in a candy store.
"Baby, where are you guys at?"
"Where here, I am sorry I didn't call you, we have been here for about an hour now. I got wrapped up in looking at some car designs." I told him softly expecting him to yell at me for worrying him.
"It's ok. Letty was just getting a little worried."
"I'm sure you were too, can I talk with her for a second?"
"Yeah sure here she is."
"Hey chica how was your trip?" Letty's voice came on the phone.
"It was good so far, we have been here for about an hour now. I have a design I'm going to fax to you. If you like it I can have the vinyl done cheep here, or maybe if I can make it work I might just air it for you." I told her happy that I had been here for only an hour and had already found her something for her car.
"I'll be at the shop pretty late tonight so send it over when ever you get a chance, you need to come home soon." She tells me the last part in almost a pleading voice.
"Why's that?"
"Cause your father is being a slave driver, with out you hear he can look closer at all of our work, and with the mad scientist gone he is acting like the world is coming to an end." I can hear my dad in the background telling her to watch her self when she talks about him.
"Funny, glad that it's you and not me. I have a question for you, but I need you to be away from every one."
"All right hold on let me go out side."
"Tell me when you are there." I tell her, I know she won't share what I talk with her about but I don't want anyone being able to possibly hear it.
"Now what is it? Hurry cause your dad is going to have my ass when he finds me out here and not working." She tells me in a joking voice.
"Didn't he already have your ass like recently?" I tell her knowing this would get a rise from her.
"You young lady need to get your mind out of the gutter, now what's up?" She states trying to change the subject. Her and my dad has never been to open about their relationship, it's there but it's not. I think they are trying to keep it from me but who knows. That I can deal with later.
"Does Aunt Mia still want to find Brian?"
"Why?" She asks and I can hear the concern in her voice.
"I wanted to talk with you about this cause I know how dad is. Please just answer me." I tell her knowing that she would wait for me to give more details.
"All right, I don't like you dragging me into this, but yes she still does. Jesse has never had any luck finding him though."
"What did dad and the other say about Jesse finding him?"
"They weren't happy but were willing to deal with him for her, that is as long as he ain't a cop." She told me and I can see the smirk on her face. It is more of a painful smirk, but a smirk. " Again I am going to ask you why?"
"I honestly don't think we came here for parts. I am currently standing about 500 feet away from him now." I tell her softly.
"You sure it's him?" She questions almost with hope in her tone.
"Yes, he asked how everyone was doing and was very interested that Aunt Mia was almost done with school."
"Let me feel everyone out and see how they still feel about him and then maybe we can set up contact with them." She told me softly.
"Sure can I ask you one other thing?" I asked her softly.
"What?" She kind of snapped at me.
"You sure you sound annoyed with me."
"Sorry baby girl, I'm not feeling very good, my stomach is cramping on me again."
"I though you were going to get that looked at, you promised me." I asked her, she promised me.
"It stopped, I promise if it keeps up I will go see a doctor ok." She said in a voice that I knew she was telling me the truth.
"K. So did Jesse ever have an older girl friend named Monica?" I ask her wanting to know why they kept looking at each other.
There was silence on the phone for what seemed like forever then Letty came back on.
"Not that I know of, but you might want to ask you dad on that one, he's here now, did you want to talk to him?" I could tell there was something she was hiding but I didn't know what it was.
"Sure." This was weird for her to pass off a question like that to my dad, she almost always knew whom Jesse dated well more or less slept with, and I don't think he has ever really dated anyone that I know of.
"What's up?" My dad's gruff voice said to me.
"Did Jesse ever have a girlfriend that was Latina named Monica?" Dad must have been drinking something because I could make out the sound of him spiting it everywhere.
"Not that I know of baby. Is Jesse around now?"
"No, He is looking at a car right now, how about I give you a call before I go to bed and you can talk to him then. Ohh can you keep an eye on Letty for me, she is having her stomach cramps again." I told him knowing full and well that she would be in the Doctors in the morning.
"Sure thing sweet heart. Talk to you soon."
With that we hung up and I walked back over to the group. That was working on various cars. The garage was almost like dads, just newer and there were a variety of cars not just supped up ones.
"Who's Jeep is that?" Brian asked me when he saw me coming back in from being out there sitting in it.
"Mine. Why?" I looked at him raising an eyebrow carrying Letty's tread mark scowl.
"Yo Jesse," He called Jesse over to us, creating everyone to look up at us.
"Sup?" Jesse questioned.
"Who's Jeep is that?" He asked Jesse as if I was lying to him.
"Hers," He pointed to me.
"I just told you that." I said getting kind of pissed that he wouldn't take my word for it.
"So your telling me that the daughter of the great Dominic Torreto drive's a Jeep Wrangler, not a racer?" Roman asked coming into the conversation. " That's just wrong."
"Yeah, that's what I said, but she didn't want to fix hers."
"What you mean fix?" Brian asked.
"I had it like 2 weeks was going to a race got sideswiped, took out 3 parked cars and then wrapped it around a telephone pole, He was going to fix it for me but I talked Letty into talking him into getting that for me." I said in a tone that said don't question me anymore. "Now, even though none of you guys have anything to do in here, I have some spraying to get to. Brian do you think you can take me shopping tomorrow?"
"No, ask Suki."
"Hell no you all don't fucking mess with her like that you know I don't shop."
"I'll take you." Monica said softly.
"Sure. That would be great, on thing…" I started to say but was interrupted by Jesse and Brian.
"She drives." They laughed at saying this together.
"Damn how much you get like Letty every day." Jesse said after him and Brian laughed.
"Real funny guys." With that I walked back in to the shop to get started where I left of when my dad called.
(Brian' POV)
I took off my dirty shirt and threw it on the floor and then lay on my and Monica's bed, it had been a hell of a long day, the garage was as busy as ever, I cant remember a time when we had had so much business. Everyone was working on separate cars whereas normally we would help each other out, but there simply wasn't enough time to help one another.
Having Jesse and Kira there to help made it go buy easier. After we were done for the night I took them to my house and we had ordered take out, although Roman ate most of it before he went out on his date with some racer chaser, funny thing was that he was taking her out for a meal, I never knew where he put all that food.
I had tried to be the best host I could, but without Monica helping me I think I kinda sucked at it. All I wanted to do was curl up with Monica in bed and sleep; she had been quite quiet all night and had only really spoken when she had been spoken to.
I guess it was cause me, Jesse and Kira had spoke about the team most of the night and she didn't know them so she couldn't really join in, but that never stopped her before, generally I am complaining that I cant get her to shut up. I did try to add her in but she just didn't seem interested.
I watched her undress down to her underwear and then she climbed on the bed beside me and turned her back to me, I rolled over and placed my arm over her, "What's up?" I asked her softy.
"Nothing I'm just tired." she replied turning on to her back and weakly smiling at me.
"You've been quiet all night, you sure that's all it is?" He asked
"Yeah, I'm just not to sure I like them staying here,"
"What?
Why? You were fine with it two days ago, in fact you practically told
me to not book them a hotel, don't you like them?
I know Kira has an attitude most of the time, but I'm sure Jesse
can get her to tone it down some. Maybe even your shopping trip would
help."
"No their cool, its just, ah nothing, I'm just being stupid she told me perking up a little", I wasn't convinced there was more to it, my cop sense (or Spider Sense, as Roman called it) told me there was more to it.
KIRA P.O.V
Brian seemed like a cool guy, I wasn't so struck on Monica though, a little to quiet for my liking, she reminded me some what of Mia, never understood why people where shy. It didn't get you anywhere, being assertive and knowing what you want and demanding it or working hard for it, got you everywhere.
I was undressing in the room that Roman had so graciously let me stay in, something about probably not coming home tonight anyways, yeah I think I am just sleeping in my sleeping bag tonight, I don't think I want to know what has been in that bed. The room was small and only fitted the bed that was in here and a small double wardrobe but it would be fine for my needs until we went back to L.A.
I sat on the bed once I had got in to my pajamas and smiled, my dreams were coming true, and I was going to become a cop. Even if my dad didn't like it, I was determined and I was going to do it! I had passed the written and the physical and maybe things would get harder, but hell I enjoy a challenge!
