PLEASE REVIEW =]

I OWN NOTHING.

WARNING, THIS CHAPTER IS REALLY LONG! I HAVE NO IDEA HOW YOU GUYS MIGHT REACT TO THIS CHAPTER, ITS QUITE A SHOCKER BUT I WANTED TO KEEP THINGS INTERESTING.

LETTY'S POV

I was already sitting around the table after making breakfast for everyone. Last night, my

grandmother and I never really discussed what I did in school so I knew it would be on the agenda and I had to be prepared.

I sat around the table waiting when they met me there.

"¿Qué es esto? (What is this?)" mi abuela asked

"An apology"

"For?" she asked

I looked at my dad "You didn't tell her?"

"I told her" he grinned

"Ugh you guys are killing me. Your really gunna make me spell it out"

"Of coarse I am" she smiled

"Evil" I remarked "But I'll play along. I'm sorry for slamming her head into the mirror"

"What else" my dad said

"What else?"

"How does this make us look?" he asked me

"Not good and I'm sorry I'm such a problem child. I appreciate everything you guys do for me and you guys deserve better" I held my head down

She lifted my head and kissed my cheek "Hunny, if I was so concerned about problem

children I would of given up on your father years ago"

My dad laughed.

"So what's the plan today?" I wondered

"We're putting you to work" he stated

"Work?" I stood up

"Yea, at the garage with Tony. Maybe you'll learn something" my dad sat down and

started eating breakfast

"I don't think he wants me working for him"

"Of coarse he does, he was the one to suggest it" My dad added

I walked out of the kitchen and up to my room to get ready for work.

I showed up at the garage right on time "Morning" I said to him

"Morning" he handed me a broom

"You want me to sweep?"

"Yea, what else did you think you were gunna do?"

"Well, this is a garage. I thought maybe I would help out with a few cars" I flashed my

winning smile hoping it would persuade him

He laughed "Letty, baby steps"

"Come on Mr. T" I whined

"With time"

I started sweeping

"Did Miguel see you too last night?" he asked

I stopped sweeping and looked at him stunned

All he had to say was "I see everything"

"No kidding" I went back to sweeping

"I hope you guys weren't doing what I think you were doing"

"No no, we weren't" I said really fast

He smiled "I heard about the dinner the other night"

"Thank God he didn't scare of Pete"

"How much do you know about this Pete?" he said sitting down

"I know I like him"

"Do you know anything else?"

"I know enough, why"

"You should slow things down a bit"

"No offense Tony but that's the last thing I wanna hear" I tried not to sound rude

He stood up "Someone had to tell you"

"Tell me what?"

He walked away and I threw the broom down in anger. "You didn't tell me anything!"

I left at the appointed time without telling Tony, went home and remained in my room.

"Letty" my dad said

"Yea"

"Tony and I are gunna go out for a while, I'll be back before you know it"

"Kay"

20 minutes after they drove off Dom was by my window, I locked my door, then opened

the window to let him in.

"Our dads' are gunna be home any minute" I sat on the edge of my bed

"No they won't, they went to some race about an hour away, they won't be home till

morning" he laid back on my bed, resting his head against the wall

"Soo"

"No tv huh?" he stared at the empty space that was once filled by my tv

"Nope"

"Come on" he went by my window

"Dom I really don't wanna go on my roof tonight. It's too cold outside"

"Can you just shut up and come with me"

I followed

"You can climb a tree right?"

"We're leaving my house?"

"Yea"

I looked down on my shorts and said "Fine, lemme just put on some pants" I went inside,

grabbed a pair of grey sweat pants and put them on.

I copied him as he jumped from my roof to the tree then climbed down like before.

I was almost down the tree when I felt his hands on my ass. I looked at him

"What, I'm just helping you down"

"Sure you are"

I got down and we walked to my car.

"Dom, we can't take my car. I don't got the keys"

"Who said we need keys"

"Why can't we take yours?"

"And wake up the entire neighborhood? Forget about it. We're taking yours" He reached

into his pocket and got out a pocket knife then unlocked my car, the alarm quickly went

off and he pulled some wires to shut it off.

"Smooth" I laughed

"Just get in"

We got in. He was in the drivers seat, I was in the passengers seat.

His hands started fumbling around under the steering wheels and with a couple of wires

the car started.

I laughed "Okay, you gotta teach me that"

"Yea, yea just steer while I push" I obeyed, there was no point in questioning him

now

He released the brake and pushed the car down the street then ran inside. I moved over allowing him to take the driver's seat, the car kept moving down the hill

When we were far enough from my house he started the car and turned on the radio. It played DMX's Ruff Ryders Anthem.

"Ay" we said then started singing along to the song

I turned it up, nearly blasting out my speakers. It didn't matter, I was happy where I was.

A guy in a green Toyota pulled up next to Dom, signaling he wanted to race. Dom looked

to me for approval. "Get em!" I said. There were only two narrow lanes on the road. The guy took the lead and that didn't sit well with Dom. Dom tried to pass him but the guy wouldn't budge. The only way was to go car to car with this guy. We saw a set of headlights coming down our lane.

"Dom" I worried

"I see it" he said with a straight face

"It's coming right at us" I watched

"You trust me?" he asked looking at me

"Uhm" In fact I did trust him

The guy in the green car also panicked, he started slowing down. Dom seized this

opportunity by speeding up and swerving into the right lane. This allowed the car on the left to pass and Dom to win.

We pulled over to the side of the road, victorious and my heart was racing. I placed my

hand over my chest and laughed "Oh My God!"

"I know" he said

"The adrenaline. Here feel my heart" I took the same hand that I used to feel my heart beat and took his to cover my chest so he could feel it. He stared at my chest. I started snapping my fingers "Hey, buddy. My eyes are up here" I directed him to my eyes

He laughed as he started the car again and we drove until we got to an old deserted building.

I followed him upstairs to the roof, in the darkness, holding his hand so we wouldn't stray

far apart . I did as he did and laid on the floor.

"Look" he pointed up

"Wow!"

"Far away from the lights, enough to see the stars"

"Trynna win points with me Toretto?"

"Yea, to get in those pants" he joked

I punch him, he knew I had a boyfriend.

He shook his head and said "If you only knew"

"If I only knew what?"

"Nevermind"

"No, first your dad now you. I wanna know now"

"So I met this chick, huge rack…" he changed the subject

I got up "Okay, take me home"

"What? Come on Letty" he got up

"It's late, can we just go please."

"Okay, I'll take you home."

We got back and Dom parked the car so it looked like no one had touched it..

"Night" I said while he walked towards his house

After climbing into my room, I walked to the bathroom to wash my face. I turned off

the water after hearing a strange sound, wiped my hands, dried my face then I went to

check on my grandmother.

She had fallen on the floor and I guess the sound I heard was her trying to reach for the

phone cause it was on the floor next to her. I ran over to her "¿Lo que duele? (What

hurts?)"

She had her hand over her chest and her breathing became irregular. I grabbed the phone

and dialed 911

"911 What's your emergency"

I was crying and could barely talk "My grandmother, I think she's having a heart attack!" I

told them my address and stayed by her side on the phone

I heard cars outside so I ran downstairs to let the ambulance in. They rushed upstairs and I

waited at the bottom of the stair case. When they wheeled her outside I followed. My dad

and Tony pulled up to the house, rushed out the car to me. They saw her and my dad held me. When Dom and Mia came outside to see what was going on Tony told my dad to go with my grandmother and he took me to the hospital with Mia and Dom following in Dom's car behind us. We met up in the waiting room and said nothing.

The doctor finally came out and told us the bad news. Their was nothing left for them to do, she died on the way to the hospital. Tears started going down my face. I got up screaming then ran off.

Dom ran after me. He cornered me by the vending machines. I started punching and kicking it till my hands started gushing out blood. Dom walked up behind me and held me against the wall. I stopped fighting and turned to face him.

I buried my face into his neck ruining his shirt with my tears. He didn't seem to care, he just held me.

A few doctors came by the vending machine to get something to eat and Dom led me to a nearby stairwell. I sat down on the stairs and he sat next to me allowing me to rest my head on his shoulder and hold his hand. I felt lifeless.
