Title: When You Love Somebody

Disclaimer: I do not own any of the characters from The Fast and The Furious. The only character's that are mine are the ones that weren't in the movie.

Summary: This takes place before the movie. Right after Mia's father dies she needs someone. Dom's in Lompoc so he can't help and no one could possibly understand the way she's feeling. Not even Letty, but one night while walking home from Letty's she finds someone who can.


Mia walked down the street toward her house. She had been over at Letty's talking about everything that had been going on lately. Well, specifically talking about Dom being in Lompoc and how much they would both miss him. Letty seemed different. Like she had grown up over night since everything that had happened with Dom. Mia knew something was bothering her but she wasn't sure what. Mia's thoughts were interrupted when the black Honda pulled up beside her. She looked over toward the car and groaned when the driver rolled the window down.

"What's Mia Torretto doing out this late all alone?," Johnny Tran asked her as he gave her a cocky smile.

"That's none of your business," Mia replied and continued to walk toward her house. She tried to ignore him as he continued to drive slowly beside her. She heard him laugh right before he stopped the car and climbed out of it. He started walking behind her. She knew he was close enough to touch her if he really wanted to. She finally got tired of it and spun around to face him.

"What the hell do you want, Johnny?," she said and instantly regretted the question as he checked her out and licked his lips.

"Damn girl, when did you go from ugly to fine?," he asked and then laughed again when she glared at him. Mia crossed her arms over her chest.

"Are you drunk?," Mia asked and Johnny looked up into her eyes and then over at his car like he was trying to figure out the answer to the question himself. She rolled her eyes and waited impatiently for what seemed like an eternity for his answer. He finally looked back at her with a confused look in his eyes.

"Drunk? Of course not," he said and smiled at her again before leaning in close to her to try to kiss her. She stepped back quickly and stared at him like he was completely insane. He grabbed her arm and pulled her against his hard body. She cried out and looked over his shoulder toward Letty's house before meeting his eyes.

"Johnny, let me go. I know you don't want to do anything you'll regret. I think deep down your a nice guy," Mia said and sighed as he smiled and moved his hands down to hang loosely around her waist.

"How old are you now, Mia?," he asked as he stared down into her eyes.

"15. How old are you?," Mia asked.

"19," he replied softly before lowering his lips down onto hers and kissing her softly. Mia almost returned his kiss but then her thoughts turned to Dom and how upset he would be if he even knew she was even talking to Johnny Tran. She quickly pushed Johnny away and took a step back away from him.

"Are you just doing this because of what happened between Dom and Cami?," Mia asked and regretted asking the question almost instantly when he glared at her and grabbed her arm.

"When I'm ready to make your brother pay for what he did to my sister I'll make sure what I do will hurt him a lot longer than me fucking his little sister would," Johnny said angrily before letting go of Mia's arm and walking back over to his car. Mia turned quickly and ran into her house. She heard his Honda go past behind her. Once inside she made sure she had locked the door and then walked upstairs. She heard the television in the living room and walked in to see Jesse asleep on the couch. When the cops took Dom away Jesse, Leon and Vince moved in to help Mia with some things. Letty kept talking about moving in and Mia thought she might soon. Her mom was never really around that much anyway. Mia turned off the television and went up to her room to get some sleep.
