Getting over it:
They got out of the car and walked up the driveway and into the house. Jesse and Lean were sitting on the sofa playing some game on the playstation 2. No one else was about.
"Were is everyone?" Dom motioned to the two guys.
Without even taking his eyes off the screen jesses answered,
"Vince is sleeping, Mia and Brian are upstairs and Let is in your room I think. She's not too happy."
"I suppose I better go and see her. Jesse Ali's just going down to your room to get ready. "
"Ok man no problem." All the time still watching the TV screen.
As Dom walked up the stairs he turned to speak to me,
"Go ahead and if you need anything just give someone a shout."
"Ok thank you."
He walked up the stairs and I headed downstairs to the basement.
I walked into the room, which was a complete mess and smelt of man, but who was I to complain. I opened up the suitcase I had brought with me to try and find something to wear to the races.
I had no idea how different the races would be here. What did everyone wear?
I decided to play it safe with blue jeans and a dressy T-Shirt. I grabbed the towels off the bed and headed into the bathroom for a shower.
Upstairs:
Dom walked into the bedroom. He could hear the shower on in the bathroom. He walked over to the door and tried the handle. It was open and he walked in.
Letty turned round with a very annoyed look on her face. She stepped away from the shower slightly so she could talk,
"What do you want Dom?"
"What's wrong girl? I haven't done anything wrong."
"Dom you just don't get it do you?"
"Well obviously not. Let what is the problem?"
"I'll talk to you when I get out of the shower I'm freezing." She stepped into the shower and Dom walked out of the bathroom.
He walked over to the bed and sat down. 5 minutes later Letty came out of the bathroom with just a towel wrapped around her.
She walked over to the wardrobe to find something to wear, walking straight passed him.
"Letty talk to me. How am I supposed to make up for whatever it is I've done if you won't even talk to me."
"Dom why don't you get it. I don't want to keep bringing it up but when you do things like that I just can't trust you."
He stood up off the bed.
"Letty you're going to have to get over that. It was just once and I've apologised a thousand times for it. I don't know what else you want me to do."
He was shouting now. He didn't mean to be so harsh because he knew that he had hurt her but they were never going to move on if she didn't forget about it.
"Dom sit down. You may be able to scare other people but you don't scare me."
They were both shouting now and everyone in the house could hear them.
"It isn't that easy to forget it. It's not what you did so much, I just don't trust you anymore."
"Well I don't know what you want me to do?"
"Just stop pulling stunts like that."
"Like what Let. I was trying to help her fit in. She came to this country knowing one person - if you could even call it that. She met Brian what 3 weeks ago. I figured that she must have been in a pretty shit situation if she felt that going to a foreign country where she knows no one was her best choice. Now I'm sorry if you don't get that Let but I'm not going to completely change the kind of person I am just so that you can see if you can trust me. I haven't changed at all so maybe it's you with the problem and not me."
"Fuck you Dom." She lifted her clothes out of the wardrobe and walked past him into the bathroom.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Ali had just got out of the shower and she could hear shouting upstairs. She felt so bad. She didn't want to be causing problems already but she didn't even know what she had done wrong.
She guessed that she just didn't know these people enough. She couldn't understand why Letty was such a jealous person. Obviously she didn't know enough about these people because although Dom seemed really nice to her she didn't know what he had obviously done in the past to make Letty have so little trust in him.
She got dressed and was just plugging her straighteners in when someone knocked on the door.
"Yeh?"
"Hey its Jess. Can I come in?"
"Yeh sure."
The door opened and he walked in. He looked slightly embarrassed at the whole situation.
"Do you need anything?"
"No im fine thanks. I was just going to do my hair here if you don't mind?"
"No not at all go for it. I'm just gona have a shower." With that he walked into the bathroom and locked the door. Ali finished doing her hair and did her make up as well. She looked at her watch – it read 9:30. What time did they leave at? At home they would normally be leaving about now.
She had to stop herself from thinking like that. She wasn't at home anymore.
She turned her straighteners off and headed up the stairs. Was she ready for the races?
