Hey guys I'm so sorry it took so long for me to update. I've been studying for exams and I also got the flu this week so everything came on top of me and I had no time to write. Again I am very sorry because you've given me great support with this story, your reviews are so lovely...thank you so is pt2 of 'the talk', I hope you like it. R&R
Letty sat on the bed full of hysteria and confusion over what she just heard. She honestly couldn't believe it. Did the universe hate her? Was she a bad person or something to be given so many curve balls in her lifetime.
A child! A baby boy! Dom's son!
She just couldn't fathom any form of reason to this situation. She just thought of how ironic it was that she fessed up to Dom about wanting kids and now she finds out he already has one- and not by her which hurt the most.
A tear rolled down her cheek. She felt that's all she'd been doing the past week was cry so she brushed it off in annoyance. She combed her hands through her hair, her body wrecked with shock. What am I going to do she thought.
As she sat on the edge of the bed for the best of an hour she came to realise a lot of things. She knew deep down that loving the little boy wouldn't be the problem after all he was Dom's son, his blood, an innocent little thing with no choice in the matter. The problem was coming to terms with the fact that having her own kids would be different now. She knew Dom would love them most definitely but the whole experience would be completely different to what she imagined. I mean it took her so long to realise she wanted this, that she imagined so many times what the experience would be like to only now find out it would be nothing like that. She also felt she had been pushed back in taking the next step with Dom, the hurt he has put her through is too much and she doesn't think it's right to bring another child into their world of anger and rage if she could never forgive him. She knew that's what it would be like, she loves him..she really does but dealing with this she has to think of herself...if she would live the rest of her life resenting him for this and then put their own kids in a situation where their parents were always arguing or fighting. She would never want that after what she witnessed with her parents so she knew the only important question she had to ask was 'can you truly forgive him?'
A few hours later her message alert went off. She reached over to the drawer, grabbing the phone feeling calmer at this point. It was a text from Dom. She sat up eagerly to read what he said.
Hey,
I know this is hard and I'm not expecting anything from you, nothing at all but please just remember that I love you so much you are my everything and I will be forever trying to be the man you deserve because you deserve the world and more. I know that you need time for yourself so I'll head away somewhere for as long as you need, let me know when you want more answers... I'll be waiting.
Love you always,
Dom Xxx
She couldn't help but smile a little, she really loved this man. He had her heart from day one without a doubt. She realised then and there the answer to her question. She would always forgive him, he had her heart and she could never neglect the vows they made. She would never be willing to let go of them. This was fate and Dom's little boy was a blessing. They both valued family so much and now they're family just got bigger. This little boy didn't get to choose his family but she vowed to make him always feel loved by them because none of this could ever be his fault and she would never make it feel that way. She texted him back immediately, wanting to talk about their new plans for the future.
Dom it's ok you don't have to do that, come home...it's ok. I've realised things since you've been gone and I want to talk things through with you. It will definitely take time to adjust and deal with this but I'll never be willing to give up on us that easy after all we've endured .
So comer home to meXx
Dom returned a couple of hours later. He turned the key slowly in the door unsure if she'd be awake. Sure enough as he walked he heard the noise from the tv. He walked into the sitting room and her eyes met his. With a flick of the remote she turned the tv off and detangled herself from a blanket. She walked over to him slowly and wrapped her arms around his muscular frame.
"I'm sorry about earlier, I reacted badly on the spot like that I..."
"Ssh don't apologise for anything you've never had anything to be sorry for," he stopped her brushing a hand through her hair. She pulled back to look up at him.
"Babe, over the last few hours I've realised what this could bring to our lives and I've contemplated on whether or not I can except it. The truth is I could never love anyone like I love you and when I made those vows I was doing it because I wanted this to be eternal and it will be cause my love for you will never leave and I know that's true with all my heart," she proclaimed with utmost sincerity in her was taken back by her beauty in that moment, he truly was so lucky.
" I will keep my promise to ride with you and I will promise you now to love your son as best I can because none of this is his fault, faith brought him to us."
Dom was overcome with what she said, she was so earnest and sincere how could he have done so much to her.
He reached for her hand,"Letty you're the most amazing woman I've ever known and I feel nothing but honour to call someone so selfless and good-hearted my wife. Right now I promise to do right by you and from this day forward, I promise to make you know how much you mean to me and that you've made the right choice to stand by me."
She smiled cherishing his words knowing he was being truthful, he did love her. She let out a gasp at what he did next. He pulled out a small diamond, silver ring from his jean pocket. Her hand instantly covered her mouth in awe.
"Letty we have eternity in this moment and I promise you forever, I love you," and with that he slipped the ring on her finger, basking in delight.
"Dom you didn't have to do this I told you before your word is enough," she exclaimed investigating the ring in the shine from the sunlight.
"I know but I want you to truly know I'm in this forever and that I love you so much."He pulled her in close as she mumbled "I know," and they kissed relieving the days tension.
Afew minutes later they sat on the couch discussing what was to come."You do realise this will take me awhile to adjust to, I love you and all but this is a huge deal and I want you to understand I can't just pick up where we left off, it'll take time."
He nodded reassuringly "of corse baby I'm not expecting that, I'm just so thankful that you are willing to go through this with me and to continue to stand by me. I cannot be more grateful to you and I know Marcus will love you just as much as I do."
"Marcus, his name is Marcus?" she asked with a half smile.
"Not exactly it's his middle name. You see Elena wanted me to give him his first name but it wouldn't feel right for me to name him unless you could pick it with me too. You are going to be the mother figure in his life and he truly is so lucky to have that so I want you to help me pick his first name," Dom beamed.
"Ok, I would like that and I know I'm not his mother but I promise Dom that I'll try to love him like my own. I will never make him feel less worthy to me I swear it," she said in a serious tone.
" I know trust me, you've such a good heart I know that'll he'll be loved and cared for so deeply by you. I love you so much don't ever forget it."
They embraced again not wanting to ever let go. They were both so happy to be in a good place again and they now both looked forward to welcoming the newest Toretto into the family.
Thats the revelation dealt with, hope you liked it. I have ideas for this story if you want me to continue it, perhaps the barbecue end scene next. Let me know if you want me to continue. R&R :)
