Looking over Mia's paper was like being back in high school, checking freshmen work for a few bucks or making it for a couple more. It was mostly talking about things I could never understand. It was hard to edit it that way but I managed, when all was said a done she had a nice ten page paper.

"You know your sexy when your look all smart." I heard Dom say I looked over at him leaning in the doorway smiling at me I rolled my eyes, there's no way I looked 'sexy' with a tang top on, with pj shorts, and my hair up in a messy bun. It was a little after noon maybe I should get dressed.

"Yeah, what do you want?" I was not as stupid as I looked he can try all he wants he was about to ask something he knew I was not goanna like. "Nothing, just wanted to let you know." He sat on the couch his arm going behind me I put the coffee table in front of me before leaning back onto him.

"You know, our anniversary is coming up." he said making me groan, he always brought this up, after we had been together for more then five year without marriage it was kind of pointless. "Come on, you know its coming you have to remember the day you caved." He gave me that half cocky smile.

I did it was a crazy day, when we made our relationship well a real one. He told me stay or hit the road he was not going to play around anymore. "Well you said all or nothing, well kind of." He knew what I meant so he looked the other way he had told me before he didn't want to get married, gave me every reason in the book.

He said it wasn't safe for me, if people had found out about the trucks. Or if the gangs wanted to get to him, or even if the cops wanted someone to question. I knew he loved me but sometimes a girl just wants to have a normal life. No races, no jobs, no team crap. Just have her husband come home form working in the shop have dinner, watch a movie then go to bed.

"So what do you want to do?" I asked not really in the mood to fight after all this thinking. He sipped some of his beer that he had brought in with him. I never got how he could drink in the middle of the day but Dom did what he wanted when he wanted.

"I was thinking about getting you that new little car you have been tell me about." Wow he was talking about a beetle it was an imported and it was not likely to be racing any time soon. I would never have thought he would be okay with that. Maybe this anniversary thing was no too bad. I kind of melted into him after that.

"But I want you to do something for me, as my gift." I sighed; I knew this was goanna end badly, Dom never asked me to do anything unless it was important or at least important to him. I sat up turning to look at him. he looked me right in the eye like always.

"What do you want?" It was plan and to the point.

"I want you to go see your mom." I rolled my eyes leaning back onto him, I didn't hear that. My mother was dead to me, dead. As in no longer living unless it was to be the butt of every joke. "Stop I know what your doing." Good then he knew to back the hell off.

"There is no car, no number of cars, no amount of money that could or would make me go see that women." I went to go stand up but he pulled me down by my waist, Dom was ten times stronger if not more then I was, I wasn't going anywhere but who is to say that would stop me.

"Listen to me." I tried to move again be he pulled me down. "Listen!" he yelled showing me he was serious. I looked at him moving my jaw around like I do when I am annoyed. "I want you to go see her, fix things if you can but I wont ask too much." He tried to stay clam but I could see he didn't like that I was giving him this much kick back.

"Why dose it madder now? Did the buster put you up to this! To get me out of the way?" it seemed like he would, if he was a cop like Vince said he would try to get ride of anyone who would him problems it just seemed he was a soft cop most I know would have tried to get me in jail or at worse kill me.

"No, I want you too." He made the 'I' known. "She is the last of your family, you need to fix things with her before everything. I know you don't want to but you have living family Natalie, you're not like me and Jessy and Letty. I wont take you from them." He was doing what he thought was right. Which maybe good for his morals but it sucked for me.

"Dom, your right I do have living family. He is locked up in a little cell somewhere I cant even go see him! if you want me to go be with family so bad break him out or better yet let that buster take me in maybe he could get me a neighboring cell."

He pulled me close to him. he kissed my lips rather hard but it just made a jolt go down my spin I put a hand on his that were on both sides of my face.

He pulled back looking me in the eyes his were darker and I could still taste him on my lips. "I would never let anyone put you away, I never want you to experience that." He put his forehead to mine. Like I had said I knew Dom loved me. I let a sigh escape before pulling away some I moved over so I sat in his lap one leg on each side my hands on both sides of his chest.

I could feel his warmth, and every muscle he was built to take a beating or to give one. He moved his rough hands to my hips, the feeling of firm rough skin on my smooth skin made me shutter. I knew these hands that could snap me in half were the hand that gave me the greatest pleaser not only in the bedroom but also in life.

"I will go talk to her, but I want more than a car." I smiled at him; he was not goanna get out that easy. He just chuckled getting my relaxed.

"What is it and how much is it goanna coast me?" he made it sound like I coast him a lot of money, maybe more then some but its not like I had jewels and gold trimmed skirts or whatever some people did.

"A lot, tons. You might have a heart attack when you hear it." I joked with him moving my hands to around his neck. He gave me a cocky smile. "I will try to make it, just give it to me fast and hard." He joked with me.

"I want you and me to have one night to ourselves, no team no drama just you and me dinner, a movie, home." Maybe I could get a taste of the normal lifestyle, and he was going to give it to me like it or not.

"I think I can manage that." He smiled at me before moving me closer and kissing me, softer this time. He wasn't making a point this time he was enjoying the moment, which made me enjoy the moment.
