Chapter 28
Sky raced her car up the driveway followed closely by Vince. He jumped out of his car and grabbed a couple car covers out of the garage. "Cover your damn car now. Do it fast cause the cops'll be coming by any second."
Dom came out of the house to see what the commotion was all about. Sky was panicking having trouble getting the cover on. He took it out of her hands and put it on for her. "Someone want to tell me what the hell is going on." Just as he finished his sentence three cops passed by the house with lights on and sirens blaring.
Sky glared at Vince then walked to the front of the house. He caught her as rounded the front and tackled her causing her to slam to the ground with all his weight on her. Somehow she wiggled her legs free and kicked him repeatedly until he moved off of her. With all the strength she could muster, she plowed into him shoulder first. He was only slightly knocked off balance, but that was enough for Sky to get her footing to pounce again. This time she pushed him over and they rolled down the hill entangled in each other's limbs. Vince fell off the wall with Sky landing on him with a thud. She pulled up onto her knees and began punching him.
"You're an asshole. Ever since I got here you've been treating me like shit. What the hell is your problem? You don't want me here or something? Cause I'm tired of this really." Sky screamed loud enough to bring everyone out of the house.
Leon ran to help Sky, but Dom stopped him. This was a fight that the Sky and Vince needed to get through.
"Yeah I got a problem with you." Vince said as he flipped her onto her back. He knocked the wind out of her. She gasped for air. "Don't try that act with me. It won't work. You can't just show up one day and think that I just forgave you for taking off." Sky's face had turned red and she fought for each breath. When she didn't catch her breath quickly Vince began to worry. He sat her up pounding her back.
"V. Stop beating me please. I'm not choking. Just need a little air."
"Sorry. Thought that's what you do when someone can't breath."
"If I was choking yes, but not when I've just been squashed by someone twice my size. Just sit me up next time and let me get some air. Beside you're supposed to pat not beat the person."
"Oh." He felt stupid. "Wait a minute I'm not twice your size."
"Yeah you are piggy." She joked.
"You saying I'm fat. I know you did not just say that I'm fat." He said with his way too perfect impersonation of a female. "Oh you fat alright and your hips are huge."
"You've hurt my feelings. You're just jealous. Don't hate me cause I'm beautiful." He pretended to be offended. The team watched the two of them go back and forth. They all laughed so hard that tears were rolling down their faces.
"Get over yourself. So V are we ok now?"
"Yeah Princess. We ok. Just promise not to take off again. I can't handle losing you again."
"Promise." She leaned into him and gave him a huge hug.
~Two Months Later~
Sky got call for another job. She crept out of the room thinking Leon was sound asleep. Leon had become suspicious about Sky getting up in the middle of the night and decided to follow her. He watched as she went out the backdoor and saw her get on a motorcycle with someone. She had lied to him that was all he needed to know. He went back to bed and let the anger build inside.
The alarm rang loud. It was time for work and Sky was only able to get an hour of sleep. Se wanted more than anything to stay in bed and cuddle with Leon. She kept her eyes closed and hoped he would take the hint to stay in bed. "Get up. Time to go to work." Leon said and slammed the door shut behind him.
"Great. What the hell is his problem?" She crawled out of bed and slipped on her work clothes.
Leon did not utter one word to her the entire day. She was puzzled by his attitude and tried to call him on it a couple of times. He blew her off every time. By the fifth try, she gave up. She chalked it up to male PMS. At the end of the day, Leon left without waiting for her. She rode home with Letty ranting and raving about his attitude.
Sky stomped down the stairs to the basement to start getting ready for the races that night. The door to her and Leon's bedroom was locked. She banged on the door until he finally answered. "You gonna let me in so I can get dressed?"
"Whatever."
"Leon what is going on with you?" She touched his face, but he pulled away.
"Are you going to get your stuff or what?"
"Yeah sure. Sorry to bother you." Quietly she went about the room picking out clothes and shoes for the night. "I'm gonna take a shower. Do you need anything before I get in?"
"Nah. Just get outta here."
"Ok." Sky couldn't think of what she had done to deserve such a reaction from him. She traced back everything from the previous night and nothing popped out at her. After her shower she tried to get back in the room to get dressed, but the door was locked again. She walked upstairs to Mia's room in just a towel. She explained to Mia the problem with Leon and asked if she could get ready upstairs. Mia agreed and even volunteered to do Sky's hair for the night out.
After a typical race night, the team headed back to the house to party. The only thing Sky wanted to do was get drunk. She had enough of Leon's shit and needed to relax. She passed over her usual bottle of Corona and headed straight for an unopened bottle of vodka.
Halfway through the bottle she was on the dance floor having a ball. She hadn't really cut loose since NYC. Alcohol had a calming effect on her, but it also had another effect on her. She went to find Leon and make up with him in bed. Her sight was doubled which made conquering the basement steps a challenge. Staggering and almost falling she finally hit the landing. The door to the bedroom was unlocked. She breathed a sigh of relief. She figured that Leon was waiting for her. When she opened the door her heart sank and her blood boiled. There was Leon fucking one of the blond skanks from the races. He didn't even stop having sex with the girl when he saw Sky in the doorway. Sky walked over to him and slapped him across the face. The girl got up and went to slap Sky, which was a huge mistake on her part. Adrenaline took over and Sky's sight became clear. She grabbed the girl by her hair and dragged her into the hallway. With no thought of the damage she could cause, Sky beat the girl over and over. Her fists pounded the girl's face. Blood poured from the girl's mouth and nose. Leon tried to pull Sky off, but he couldn't budge her. He ran upstairs to get help. Dom and Vince flew down the stairs. It took both of them to contain Sky. She screamed and kicked wildly. Her arms were covered in blood. Dom lost his grip and Sky ran up the steps.
One of the girl's friends got in Sky's face, "Your momma should have taught you some manners bitch." The friend threw a punch at Sky, but missed. Sky caught her by the throat and slammed her into the wall. Sky knocked her unconscious. Leon ran into the room screaming at Sky, but she couldn't hear him. Her mind was gone. He grabbed her by the arm. She turned back and caught him with a right hook to the jaw. He let go of her. She ran out of the house and jumped into her car.
