They hadn't been together intimately since the night he'd found her guns. Before everything. True, they'd 'made up', and he kissed her, but now there seemed to be something he was holding back. The thought made her angry. She knew it was because he knew everything now. He'd seen the photos. He'd heard them talk about what they'd done. Rina didn't think it was because of the deception. She truly felt they'd gotten past that. Now she had to figure out how to get him past her attack. Strange, she never thought it would be something she'd worry about. Every time she leaned in for a deeper kiss, every time she tried to turn it into something more, he pulled back. Treated her like a precious object to be put up high on a shelf. Encased in glass and only looked at, never touched. Rina wanted him with every fiber of her being.
He looked up at her from the mower and frowned. "You okay?"
"Sure." she told him with a half smile. "Any idea what's wrong with that idiotic thing?"
"I think it's the spark plug." he said with a sigh. "I'll have to pick one up for you."
"I can pick it up."
"I know you can, but I'd like to." he smiled. He leaned forward and touched his lips to hers. When she pushed into him asking for more, he hesitated and pulled away. "I'd better go get cleaned up."
"Sure." she told him. She watched him walk into the house and waited for a moment before following him with a determined stride. He was in the bathroom attached to her bedroom. She shut the door and locked it quietly behind her. Then she took her clothes off. If this didn't do it, she really didn't know what would.
Brian walked out of the bathroom to find the shock of his life. Rina, his beautiful Rina, was leaning against her shut bedroom door naked. It almost made his heart stop. He'd been trying to restrain himself around her for weeks. After seeing what those monsters did to her he didn't want to rush her. Didn't want her to jump into anything thinking she had to make him happy. He figured they could work up to it gradually. It was hard, especially when he kissed her and tasted her. She tasted so sweet. "Rina, what are you doing?" he managed to choke out.
"I'm taking matters into my own hands Brian." she said softly. "I want you, and I want you tonight. Don't you still want me?" she asked with a tilt to her head.
"Rina, you shouldn't even have to ask that. Of course I still want you, but you're fragile…"
"Fragile? Do I look fragile to you Brian?" she said stalking towards him. He took a step backward towards the bathroom. "I want to feel you in me Brian, I want to feel you on me. I'm not some fine china that you can't touch. Stop treating me as if I was." She reached him and stretched up on her tiptoes. Rina wrapped her arms around his neck and pushed her body against his. She caught his bottom lip in her teeth and bit gently. She pulled his lip down and sucked on it.
He groaned, how the hell was he supposed to keep to his good intentions when she was like this? Oh to hell with good intentions. Brian wrapped his arms around her nude body and pulled her closer. Rina grinned in triumph against his lips. They worked hastily to rid him of the offending articles of clothing. They fell to the bed in laughter. They spent the rest of the day making love, and resting, only to wake up and make love again. Brian slept next to her for the entire night, and she woke him to love her again.
The next morning he was gone when she awoke but she figured he'd gone to work at the garage. She felt glorious. What a night. What that boy could do when he put his mind to it. It was amazing. She grinned. Rina stood up and walked towards the bathroom. She heard a noise out in the living room and figured Brian must have forgotten something and come back for it. Grinning she headed out to the living wrapped up in the bed sheet.
Brian was grinning from ear to ear all day at work. When they quit for the day, he headed home, took a shower, and headed over to Rina's. Odd, the door was unlocked. Brian walked in and called out to her. "Rina?" No answer. Hmmm. Weird. "Catrina?"
When he didn't get a response he walked back over to the Toretto house. "Hey Mia, did you see Rina leave?"
"No." she said frowning. "Actually she told me she was going to be coming over here later today. She never showed up."
Brian raced out the door and back over to Rina's house. When he entered the house he heard her cell phone ringing. "RINA?" He shouted in a panic. He dug for the cell phone and answered it.
Mia had sent the other guys over as soon as they walked in.
"Hello?"
"Is Catrina there?" a man asked.
"Who is this?" Brian asked.
"This is Detective Cassidy. I need to talk to Catrina. Drew Langston managed to evade the officers stationed outside of his room at the hospital. We don't know where he is. We're worried he could be looking for Catrina."
Brian dropped to his knees. "She's not here Detective. I can't find her."
"Brian, there's blood over here man." Dom told him. Brian walked over numbly to see a lamp on the ground behind the couch, and blood on the ground near it.
"He has her Detective. Langston has Catrina."
