Chapter 52

Coney was happily sitting on the breakfast bar stool. She was swinging her feet back and fort all the while rubbing her swallow belly. Lance walked in and smiled at the scene in front of him. He kissed her gently and lay his hand over his unborn child.

"Lance I want to talk to my sister." Lance looked at her and tucked a piece of loose hair behind her ear. "Then talk to her if you want baby. But I ask you to tell her not to tell Johnny about us. You know he would get mad and kill us." She nodded with a smile "I'll make sure she doesn't tell Johnny." she took his face in her hands and kissed his lips. She couldn't believe how much she had fall in love with this guy.

Letty was sitting in the lounge area when the phone rang. She let it ring twice hoping that someone else would get it. "The phone is ringing and you'll answer it." she told Leon as he walked passed, but he ignored her. "Answer the phone!" she heard Dom's deep voice. She rolled her eyes and got up to answer.

"Hello?" Letty asked into the receiver. "Hi um…I am…is Leticia there?" "Yeah this is she." Letty answered slowly. "Oh good. It's me Coney." "Are you ok? Where are you at?" Letty began questioning her franticly. "I am ok Let. I have to talk to you about something. Can you meet me at the park down the street from your house?" "Yeah sure." "Ok I'll see you around 2. Oh and come alone." The phone went dead on the other end.

Letty was still shocked to hear from her sister. She heard footsteps coming down the stairs. She turned and saw Dom walk into the living room. "What's wrong baby?" he asked concerned. "Nothing." she stammered. "Your lying. Tell me." He went up to her and kissed her forehead lightly. "Um…I just heard from Coney." she whispered. Dominic pulled back from her and looked at her strangely. "When? Where is she?" "She's fine. She wants to talk to me, but other then that she is fine." Dominic narrowed his eyes at her he knew she was keeping something from him but he let it go. "That's good. I'll be in the garage if you need anything."

Letty sat down on the couch wondering why exactly Coney wanted to talk to her alone. She didn't tell Dom because she knew he wouldn't let her go by herself.

In Montana things where starting to look up for Mia. Her psychiatrist had helped her manage her emotions and grieve her fathers and Jeremy's death. She had learned many things about herself during the last couple of months. At first it was hard, with the withdraws and people talking to her constantly about how she was going in the wrong path. Now she was grateful for all she had gone thru. She had matured and learned not to fear love.

"Ok Mia I have good news for you. You can go home as soon as you want." Mia smiled brightly. "Are you serious?" "Yes Mia, you have worked hard and have progressed a lot. I think it's time for you to go home." "Thank you so much, you have helped me through a lot." She said delighted. "Well I couldn't have done it without you." "Can I call my brother?" "Yeah go ahead."

The doctor left the room and Mia began to dial the house number.

The phone began to ring again, this time Letty got up willingly. She grabbed the phone. "Hello?" "Letty?!" Mia immediately recognized her voice. "Mia?!" Letty screamed. "What are you doing there? I thought you where at school?" Letty laughed at all the questions. "Whoa hold on. It's a very long story girl that I have to tell you in person." "Good because I can go home!" "For real?" "Yeah" Both girls where happy. "I'll let you talk to Dom." Mia smiled at the mention of her brother. "Ok, I'll see you later." "Yeah same here."

"Yo Dom!" Letty screamed towards the kitchen. "What?" he came out and saw her extremely happy. "Phone." she handed it to him. "Who is it?" She smiled widely. "Why don't you find out."

"Hello?" Mia began to cry at hearing his voice again. "Dominic it's Mia." Dominic couldn't believe he was hearing his little sisters voice. "Mia! How are you baby?" "I'm fine. Guess what?! I get to go home!" she screamed into the phone. "What!? When?" "Whenever I want. Are you going to come or am I going to go by myself?" Dominic had a huge grin on his face. "I'll be on the next plane baby. I missed you so much Mi, you don't know." "Me too Dom. I love you and I'll be here waiting for you." "I love you too bye."

Vince walked in and only heard I love you too come out of Dom's mouth. He then saw Letty who was sitting on the chair next to him. "Ok what's going on?" Dominic turned to look at his best friend. "Mia's coming home." Vince looked at Dom then at Letty with a big grin. "You for real man?" "Yeah, I am headed over there today. We might come back tomorrow."

Dominic picked up the phone and dialed the airport. He bought one ticket for Montana which left at 4 that same afternoon. He looked at Letty who was still sitting on the chair next to him.

"You're going to leave me?" she pouted. "Baby it's only for a few days." he squatted in front of her placing his arms on her thighs. "A few days?" she cocked her eyebrow in question. "Three days, I have to visit my grandma." Letty tilted her head. "Two days?" she put on her best pouting face. Dominic smiled at her and knew he wouldn't resist. "Two days." He told her. "Promise?" she smiled at him. He stood up and picked her up, she wrapped her legs around his waist and her hands held onto his arms. "If you help me pack I'll promise." "Fine." she kissed his forehead then his lips.

Letty looked at the clock and it was nearly two o'clock. She headed out the door without telling anyone she was going out. She walked to the park when she got there she saw Coney sitting on the swing set and she looked to be pregnant. Letty made her way to the swing set, Coney got up and both girls hugged.

"I'm so gland to see you." Letty told her sister. "Me too." Coney smiled at her. "I see you've been busy." Letty said patting Coney's swallow belly. Coney laughed, "Yeah." The girls sat back down on the swings and began to swing themselves.

"I guess I should start." Coney began. "I'm well I fell in love with someone and I am living with him. I know you might not approve at first, but I love him and I know that he loves me." Letty looked at her with curiosity. "Who is he?" "Lance Tran." Coney responded. Letty was shocked she didn't know what to say or think. "Look I love him. He means everything to me. You just can't tell Johnny about us. Johnny would be mad and he would probably kill us." Coney looked at Letty worriedly she hadn't said much. "Um…I don't know Coney. Lance he…he's…I don't know what to tell you." "Just be happy for me. I love him and if someone should know what love is. It's you." Letty knew Coney was right, she did know what love was and loving someone with all your strength was something incredible especially when that person loved you back. "I am happy for you. Know that I'll always be here for you and I'll always love you no matter what." The girls hugged once more. "I love you too." "Just know that you better let me see my nephew or niece." "Of course your going to be auntie Letty." both girls laughed.

They talked for awhile longer about what had been happening. It was almost time for Dom to leave and Letty wanted to say bye to him.

"Well I better go. I'll see you later." Letty and Coney hugged once more. "Yeah I'll call you and stuff. Bye." "Bye."

When Letty got to the house she saw Dom sitting outside on the porch. She was the bottom of the stairs.

"Where have you been?" she could tell that he was angry. She shrugged her shoulders and headed up the stairs. "I've been looking for you. You can't just leave Let." She sat next to him. "I saw Coney." was all she said. Dom turned quickly to look at her. "Where?" he asked more softly. "At the park. She's living with Lance Tran." "What!? I'm going to kill him." "Dominic!" she stated firmly. "She's happy with him, she loves him. She's pregnant with his kid." She said the last sentence softly. In away she was jealous that her sister was going to have a baby, but she was also happy for her. "Oh. So she's ok?" "Yeah."

Leon walked out to the porch and looked at the couple. "Ah you found her." they both turned to look at him. "Yeah." Dom answered. "Well Coyote said we need to head to the airport." "Aight."

They got Dom's duffle bag in the car and left. When they got there they went with him to his gate. The lady was announcing that they where boarding. Dominic said bye to the guys and finally Letty.

"Take care of yourself and behave." he told her with a smile. "Behave? I always do." she smiled. "I'm going to miss you. I love you Let." "I love you too." he kissed her lips passionately. "Alright say bye already." Leon whined. The couple laughed and kiss one more time. "Call me when you get there." Letty told him. "I will. Bye." "Bye" she said softly. She felt as though she was loosing him but knew that that wasn't the case. She blew him a kiss and he smile walking into the corridor.
