Chapter 30-Beach Talks and Sleep Overs

Dom's POV

I couldn't believe what I was seeing. What the hell was Letty doing all over that guy? I don't know what her deal is but we're gonna fix it now.

When the race was over, I decided to pay a little visit to ol' Leticia. I walked over to her, who had her back turned to me talking to some guy. She was stupid to do this here, especially with some stupid fuck. I tapped her on the shoulder.

"Um, can we talk." I growled in an order, not asking her.

"What Dominic?" She asked, annoyed. She had the audacity to play stupid when she knows what I'm thinking.

"Who the hell is that? Why are you all over him? Last I checked, you were MY girlfriend." I bellowed, trying to keep my voice from attracting much attention. I didn't expect it to work though.

"His name is Victor. Get off me Dominic, you're hurting me." She yelled, snatching her arm away from me. I honestly forgot I still had ahold of her. "I was just talking to him. Take it easy."

"Bullshit Letty. He had his hands all over you and you let him. What the fuck?" I was beyond pissed that she was taking this so well.

"What Dominic?! We were just fucking talking!" She raised her voice, her Dominican accent blaring through. The guy she was flirting with decided to speak up.

"Yo man we were just talking." He said with a smug look of victory on his face. That set me off.

"Stay out of it! I outta kick--" I started, throwing myself at him. When I got but two feet away, Letty grabbed my armed and whirled my body around to face her. She was crying. Letty never cried. Not in front of people. She had too much pride to shed any emotion. She always said it made her feel vulnerable. That's one thing she hated -- vulnerability.

Sasha's POV

"It hurts doesn't it Dom? To not have my full attention.To have someone's hands all over your girl and me not do anything about it. To think that this guy could actually take your place. It doesn't feel good does it? Goodbye Dominic." Letty cried out, walking to Mia, who along with the rest of the crowd, was watching their fight. She snatched my keys from her best friend and walked fast to Marty before Dom tried to stop her.

"Hey I'll meet up with you later." I spoked, kissing Vince on the lips and running off to Letty's car. "Letty wait!" I yelled, trying to catch her before she left. She started the car up and unlocked the passenger side door. Before I could get in the car fully, she peeled out. Obviously the cops had started to catch on because once we pulled off, people started to scatter all over to the place.

Once Letty and I got out of the scramble, we drove around all night in silence. I didn't know what to say. I didn't wanna say the wrong thing to piss her off. But I also didn't wanna sit there, not saying anything to try to help. I figured I'd wing it.

"Let you okay?" I started, not making eye contact.It broke my heart to see anyone cry, especially someone I considered family now.

"What do you think Sasha?" She snapped. Okay, that was dumb on me.

"Watch it Letty. I know you're upset but I'll still kick your ass." I joked, knowing I'd get a smile out of her.

"Yeah, whateva." She grinned, wiping tears from her eyes. "Can I take you somewhere?" She asked, turning around in someone's driveway.

"Would it matter if I said no?" I smiled, wiggling in the seat to get comfortable.

We drove for a half an hour, just roaming the city. Finally, she pulled over a small cabin house next to the beach. The way the full moonlight glistened over the ocean waters made the night feel so right, even thought plenty has went wrong. We both exited the car and took off our footwear. I cuffed my jeans up and took off my t-shirt; now I was only wearing a beater and jeans. I felt more comfortable this way.

We walked down on the beach and sat down on the bare sand, letting it run threw out toes.

"Look Letty, I know you're upset. You don't have to play tough all the time. I mean, I know I'm one to talk. But me and you are a lot alike, ya know? We both put up a barrier in front of our emotions so no one can mess with them. But I bet when you're in private, you cry every chance you get right?" I knew how she felt. I felt the same way. I protected myself from all types of hurt and pain. She nodded, pushing stray hairs behind her ears."Well no one's around. It's okay to cry now. I won't tell. I promise. I know Dominic has hurt you in the past. Trust me, I've been filled in on the story. Yes, he's a big Neanderthal but he loves you Let. Just because he's always flirting with those bimbos, doesn't mean he doesn't care. Now, I'm not saying you're wrong. He does need to tell them to back off because he loves you too much to hurt you. But he feels he has to protect his reputation as King Kong." I nudged her, making her laugh at my last sentence.

"Naw, I'm done crying over Dominic.Say, how do you know so much about stuff like this? You're only a kid." She replied. The fact was, I didn't know how I knew so much.

"I watch a lot of Dr. Phil." I couldn't help but make jokes. They seem to make her smile so it works. We continued talking and joking until the early morning. It was around 4:30 a.m. when we decided we should be heading out.

"Hey if you don't want to go home, you could always crash at my place." I offered. I knew she didn't want to go home to face the grilling from Leon and Vince she had waiting for her. Reading my mind, she accepted the offer.

"Your mom won't mind? I mean just bringing strangers over at 4 in the morning?" She was right. It did seem a little odd that I had a complete stranger in my house in the early morning. But I knew Letty better then most people did.

"Naw she'll be cool. Let's go. Say Let, can I drive Marty?" I begged with pleading eyes. I always wanted to get the feel of him, but I knew she loved that car more then anyone alive. She contemplated it for a mere second, then threw me the keys. "Yess." I cheered, jumping into the front seat.

Mia's POV

I was having one of the best dreams I had ever had in my life. Me and Brian were on a beach in Hawaii getting married. Everyone was there; my Dad, me and Brian's little kids, my niece's and nephews, and everyone from the street racing world. That was one of the happiest dreams I've had in a long time until it was rudely interrupted by a phone call. Who the hell is it calling at four something in the morning? I thought to myself. I rolled over Brian's freakishly-silent body as I reached for the phone.

"Hello? This better be good." I answered angrily.

"Mia? It's me, Sasha. Sorry to wake you. I just wanted to tell you that everything with Letty is okay. She'll be home in the morning; that's if she's ready." Thank God if was from them. Dom had been worrying like hell over them two. He sent a search party out for them during the afterparty. I think he's sleeping downstairs, waiting for Letty to come home. I knew she wouldn't be though.

"Where is she? Tell her Dominic has been driving us nuts with trying to find you two." I tried to tone it down a bit, fearing Brian would wake up and make me tell Dom where Letty was.

"She's okay Mi. She's here at my house. I'll talk to you in the morning. Don't tell Dom where she is. Just tell him she's okay. Night."

Sasha's POV

"Okay I talked to Mia. She said Dom's going out of his mind with worry." I smiled, spreading my comforter on the bed. I offered to sleep in the floor so she could have my bed, but she didn't want to put me out of comfort. She insisted that I sleep in the bed with her.

"He'll live. Let's get some sleep." She replied, slipping on the pajama bottoms I gave her to borrow. To no surprise, she fit them perfect.

"How you like 'em?" I asked about the PJs.

"Love em. I mean, they have Corona's on them." She grinned, taking a better look at the bottoms. She pulled the borrowed beater over her head and pull the comforter sheets back. I walked over to my room and shut and locked the door. She gave me a suspicious look.

"You can never be too safe." I lied. I just knew if my dad saw someone else's car here, he'd assume I had a guy over and come barging in to raise hell. She just nodded, sliding into the bed.

"Ooh, comfy." She said, melting into the pillow.

"Letty shut up and go to sleep." I replied jokingly, turning off the corner lamp.
