Chapter 9
"You did what?" Mia said as we stood in the kitchen.
"It just happened. We were standing in the door of mine and Jacobs room talking next thing I know, we're kissing. Least until you guys came in." I said, stressing slightly.
"Oh my God. So it just happened? How does a kiss just happen?" Letty asked.
"I told you. We were talking and it happened, what am I going to do? I will not be the other woman." I said, crossing my arms.
"Well, like it or not, you two kissed so it means something." Mia said.
"Like what? That we still have feelings for each other. We still haven't told him about Hayley being Scotts' sister."
"Maybe we should do it. Tell him and show him the evidence Brian has."
"What? I don't think so." I said lightly, glancing at the kitchen door.
"Well, why not? Brian has everything we need to to convince him. Phone logs to the jail in New York, pictures of her with his posse. What else would we need?" Letty asked.
I sighed a bit, "Okay but we have to wait until she's not here."
Mia nodded, "Okay, then she's going to lunch with some friends. We'll come here for lunch, or so we'll say then show. We have to."
I nodded, "Okay, tomorrow. But if he gets angry, don't blame it on me."
the next day
We walked into the house for lunch and went into the kitchen.
"What does everyone want?" Mia asked.
"Doesn't matter, just make whatever. Hey Brian, didn't you have something to show us?" Dom said as he sat down.
Brian nodded, "Oh yeah. I'll be right back."
"What's going on? You guys have been acting messed up all day." Leon asked.
"Um, there's something you should know about Hayley." Vince said simply, sitting next to Dom.
"Like what? That she's related to Scott?" Leon asked as Brian walked in, making everyone stop what they were doing.
"You know?" I asked lightly.
"Of course I know. She doesn't know that I know. Eavesdropping comes in handy sometimes."
Brian tossed the folder onto the table, "Guess I don't need this then."
"We could still use it. Later I mean. If and/or when we confront her then we have the proof if she tries to deny it." Mia said after setting down lunch.
"That is true. Fact is she will deny it. We all know she will. But we have the proof. Brian found her phone records and has pictures of her with his posse. Which in half the of those pictures the person she meets with is Mitch Carson. He's like his right hand man. Does everything he tells him to, when he tells him to do it." I said, leaning against the counter.
"So what are we going to do?" Jesse asked putting food on his plate.
"We'll wait." Dom said, "We'll listen and wait. When we get a heads up, the we'll do something."
Everyone nodded and began to ate lunch.
I sat outside the garage, sipping on a bottle of water when I heard footsteps behind me and I turned around, "Oh hey Vince." I said simply.
"You okay?" Vince asked sitting next to me.
"Yeah, I'm okay. Why wouldn't I be?"
"Well, finding out Leon knew all along, He said he was going to break up with her when the time is right."
"I know. He can't right now because it would cause suspicion and that's not good." I said simply.
"You working tonight?" He asked.
"Usually am. Thursday through Sunday. And it is Friday."
"What times?"
"Why do you want to know?"
"I just do, is that so wrong?" He said.
I looked at him then smiled, figuring out why he wanted to know. "8-3. I'll be home by four. Maybe 4:30."
Vince nodded, "Good, I'll be up."
I nodded, "Okay. I'll see you then."
"Look, why don't you and Leon talk?"
"Why should we? What's there to talk about?"
"You and Leon."
"Me and Leon? Are you serious?"
"Yeah I am. Look, I know there's something going on with you two."Vince said, turning to face me.
"We may have kissed but that's it. And that's all there will ever be." I said, not looking at him.
"Well, that's something. But I think you should talk to one of the girls about any feelings." He said, standing up.
"There are no feelings Vince." I said, completely lying.
"Right. I'll send Mia out." He said smiling as he went into the garage and Mia came out a few minutes later.
"Vince said you wanted to talk" Mia said, sitting next to me.
"I didn't want to talk. He thinks I have feelings for Leon still."
"Well, you do." Mia said simply.
I rolled my eyes, "Mia..."
"No listen. You know you do. Fact is, I can see what you have between the two of you and I saw the conflict in your eyes when you told me about the kiss. You still love him Anna. I know you do. And I know he still cares for you. I know that you guys can't do anything right now because of Hayley and the whole Scott situation but after all this you guys could be together."
"Mia, face it. I may still be in love with Leon, but theres not much I can do now. I have Jacob to consider. I can't just go all willy nilly and get back with Leon. I have to do what's best for him." I said, standing up.
Mia nodded, "I know. But Leon's loves that kid. And he loves you too. That hasn't changed, not even after you left. He was miserable. Then a year later, Hayley came into the picture and next thing we all know, they're serious."
I sighed, "Mia, I would love to be with Leon again. But that won't happen anytime soon. Scott gets out next month. Once he gets out, I'm screwed."
"No, you're not. You have all of us. And nothing will happen to you or Jacob, you know Vince and Dome won't let anything happen to any of us."
"I know that Mia. But it's different now, I've changed, we all have. It was a year and half Mia. Things have changed so much."
"No everything Anna. Jesse is still the same, so are t he rest of us. Sure, we've matured a lot. But we are still the same loving people we always were." Mia said softly.
"Again, I know that Mia. But I should get back to Jacob. He's probably running Jesse ragged." I said and quickly walked off.
Mia sighed and she headed back to the garage, unaware that someone was listening to the entire conversation on the other side of the wall.
Leon leaned against the wall, using his shoulder, and sighed and pushed himself off the wall.
Well there it is..., hope you like, please r and r.... I live off of them, I swear....
