Summary: "Do you remember that time I fell out your window and you came jumping out after me?" There was a twinge of humour to her husky voice and Leon smiled for her benefit. For three years he let himself believe that he would always save her from everything, until he was the reason she was in that ambulance, a broken back and their baby was gone.

May 1999 – There ain't nothin' please me more than you

There was a tickling on Nicolas nose making her twitch slightly as she woke up. Opening her eyes there was a head of blonde hair right in front of her face. She groaned as she realised Jesse was in their bed, his head resting in her chest,

Leons arms were wrapped around her from behind and she could feel one hand resting on the skin beneath her tank top and the other was between her legs. His head was buried in shoulder making his facial hair rub against her skin, tickling her neck and making her laugh, but she swore he didn't stir until his voice was muffled in her hair.

"Get your face out of her cleavage Jess." Leons hand left her legs and smacked Jesse in the face before he returned it and buried his head in her neck again, trying to go back to sleep.

Nicola had to stifle a laugh as Jesse started and looked up at Nicola.

"Oh…ah…how'd I get here?" He asked.

"Probably had something to do with all the shots you guys were doing." She said softly remembering Leon having to run to the bathroom a few hours before complaining about drinking tequila with Letty.

There was a light tap on the door and Letty stuck her head in.

"Have you guys seen…oh there you are…" She took in the scene as she looked for Jesse and Nicola giggled.

"Want to get in, Let?" Letty laughed before running over and jumping on Leon before climbing over him to get between Nicola and Jess. Leon grunted and pulled Nicola closer as Letty got more comfortable.

"Does everyone in this bed have clothes on?" Letty asked sheepishly as she looked at the other three before Nicola lifted up the covers and looked over at Leon before looking up at Letty.

"Yep clothes are accounted for." She said as Leons hand slid up her thigh and his thumb rubbed circles on the inner skin. Nicola didn't say anything as they all cuddled into the small bed and Letty started telling them about the previous nights events.

"How many people are in this bed?" Mia was at the door and all of them except Leon looked up smiling as they waved her over. As Mia crawled in on the edge behind Jesse, Leon shifted making a little more room in the bed, taking Nicola with him.

"Does everyone have clothes on?" Mia asked realising who she was in bed with.

"Yes!" Everyone chorused and Mia laughed as she cuddled Jesse.

"Do you guys remember when we did this before La left for New York." Letty said glancing over at her friend who was smiling at the memory and the lazy circles that Leon was tracing up her thighs.

"Before Leon and La hooked up." Mia laughed and Nicola bit her lip, making Letty sit up abruptly.

"La…" Leon groaned and Nicola shrunk back into his chest as her friends looked at her in confusion.

"I don't understand." Jesse piped up as he lay between the two girls staring at the couple curled up on the other side of the bed.

"Did you guys…oh you so did!" Letty bounced making Leon groan again and stop touching Nicolas thigh making her whimper slightly.

"It was once." Nicola replied and felt Leons hand slip out from under her tank top. She quickly grabbed it back and held it to her stomach and he relaxed into her.

"And you didn't tell us." Letty said.

"I don't remember telling you guys anything about us at all if I recall." Nicola replied, "because its none of your business." She quoted Leon and smiled up at them. Both girls fell back onto the mattress and sighed.

"You suck Lala."

"I know girls, I know." She laughed before Vince appeared at the door.

"Hey where's my invite?" he leant against the doorframe laughing at the five people all in the bed.

"Your fat ass won't fit." Nicola replied pulling the duvet up over her shoulders because she could feel Leons hand sneaking up her top and running along the edge of her bra.

"Someone didn't get lucky last night." He teased before looking over at Mia. "There's someone here to see you Mia." He continued and Mia nodded, rolling out of the bed and padding out the door in her jeans and camisole, her long dark hair swinging behind her.

"Dom cooked breakfast. You guys want some?" Letty sat up and pushed Jesse out of the bed. Nicola nodded as Leons hands started to wander more freely now that there was no one else in the bed with them.

"Yeah we'll be up in a second." Nicola replied and Letty threw her a disgusted look before pushing Jesse towards the door and closing it behind them. Nicola turned around in Leons arms and suddenly had his lips pressed up against hers.

The door opened again and Jesse stuck his head in with his eyes closed.

"Ah, sorry to interrupt, but La, Mum rang last night and she and Jack are staying at De-De's and they want to see us next week." Without another word he closed the door and left them alone.

"You didn't even last half an hour." She said softly as he opened his green eyes and looked at her, a small smile on his face.

"I can't help it that you turn me on." He replied, pressing against her making Nicola groan. "See I do the same to you." He said at nuzzled her neck and his hands slid her small shorts off before going back to running up and down her back.

Nicola had left Leon in the shower as she walked upstairs towards the kitchen. It was vacant and looking out the back window she could see Dom had cooked a massive spread.

"Hey." She turned around to see Leon standing behind her in his faded jeans and a blue long sleeved checked flannelette shirt that he'd pushed the sleeves up to his elbows. He looked so good she mused. He saw the look she was giving him and walked over, placing a soft kiss on her lips.

"What're you thinking about Lala?" he said softly and she looped her arms around his neck and placed another kiss on his lips before stepping back and smiling.

"Dom cooked breakfast, they're all out the back." She gestured to the congregation. "I'll bring you out a drink." She went to the fridge as he walked out the back door.

After pouring a cup of coffee Nicola grabbed a bottle of coke out of the fridge and a few glasses. Finding a cap in the pile of things by the door she made her way out the door, she paused thinking maybe Leon would want coffee and turned to the table.

"Do you want Coke or coffee…" She trailed off when she realised there was someone new at the table. The girl had caramel skin like Dom and Mia, her short dark hair was streaked with blonde and red and she had large silver star shaped hoops in her ears. Not that that's the first thing Nicola noticed. The first thing beside the streaked hair was the tiny little bikini the girl was wearing and the way she wasn't even looking at Nicola when everyone else did. She didn't even bother following the girls gaze, she knew where it went.

Nicola didn't even worry about putting her flip flops on as she walked down the stairs and placed a glass down in front of Letty and Jesse before looking at Leon, holding the mug and a glass up and he reached for the glass and grabbed the bottle of coke from the crook of her elbow.

"Thanks La." He muttered quietly and she raised an eyebrow before turning to face the new comer. After taking a sip of her coffee she leaned across the table, her hand extended and her best girl scout smile plastered on her face.

"Hi, I'm Nicola." The girl hesitantly took her hand and shook it weakly but didn't say anything.

"Lala, this is our cousin Bella." Mia said putting her arm around the girl as Nicola sat down next to Jesse and took a sip of her coffee. "Nicola was at a ballet academy in New York when you were last here." Mia said to Bella who still didn't say anything.

"You're very quiet for a Torretto." Nicola finally said, smiling to try to get the girl to talk.

"I uh…" She started off but Dom interrupted.

"Leave the poor girl alone, La." Nicola rolled her eyes and reached for the stack of pancakes in front of her, throwing a few on her plate before dousing them in maple syrup and smiling sweetly at Dom. "Are you done?" he asked, a small hint of amusement in his voice.

"Yep. Righto, Dear God, thank you for the food we're about to eat, and then some of us will probably throw it back up." She stole a glance at Jesse who was looking a little green beside her, "But thanks all the same. And thank you for the people we are about to share it with. Amen." She said the last part with much enthusiasm and watched Jesse wince away from her, his head aching.

"That was lovely Lala." Mia said, a large smile on her face.

"Yeah I liked the bit about throwing up." Vince teased and Nicola threw a grape from the middle of the table at him.

"Are we going to eat now?" Leon interrupted and Dom nodded before Leon dove into the bacon.

Nicola had made a fair dent in the pile of pancakes on her plate when she looked up at the girl sitting across from her. Bella hadn't really touched the tiny plate of eggs and toast and Nicola looked up to say something when she saw the girl looking elsewhere. Leaning forward in her chair she looked around Jesse and Vince to the end of the table before speaking.

"Something interesting down there, Chica?" She said loudly and Bellas head snapped around to face her.

"Ah…no." She replied looking down at her plate and picking at the toast with her fingers. Nicola lowered her gaze back to her plate but kept an eye on the girl. She felt an elbow in the ribs and looked over to Jesse who shook his head at her. Nicola rolled her eyes, she was just having a bit of fun. The girl clearly had a thing for Leon.

The rest of the meal Bella remained quiet and Nicola tried to get the girl to at least smile but as she cleared the plates away with Mia she came to the resolution that it wasn't going to happen.

"So Bella…" Nicola started as she turned the taps on in the sink and poured in some of the washing detergent.

"About Bella, I didn't want to say anything outside, but you should know…" Mia put some plates beside her as Leon walked in, carrying another pile of trays.

"What?" Nicola asked, turning the taps off and looking back at Mia. Mia was watching Leon and Nicola put a hand on her hip as she watched the exchange of looks between the two.

"Nothing." Mia finally replied and slipped out the back door. Leon placed the trays on the sink and made a move towards Nicola.

"How about we finish what we started this morning." He smirked as he went to wrap his arms around her waist but she pushed him back.

"How about you tell me what that was about?" She crossed her arms across her chest and raised an eyebrow. He knew better than to think she was bluffing. There was clearly a reason Mia had bailed.

"Nothing, it was just some stupid thing."

"A stupid thing like some girl staring at you for the last half hour?" Her voice had a laugh in it, like the girl was dreaming and she saw Leon wince, rubbing his chin. "Oh Jesus Christ!" Nicola stepped back and shook her head. "You slept with little Toretto out there?" She hissed and Leons fingers ran through his hair as he tried to word it.

"We never slept together."

"But it was close?" Nicola raised an eyebrow.

"You were in New York." Leon replied in his defence.

"After this, we are so writing a list. A list on everyone, who we've dated, kissed, slept with." Nicola leant against the sink and looked up at Leon and could see the look in his green eyes, guilt.

"I'm sorry."

"She's lucky I'm not the possessive type cause I would kick her ass." Nicola replied and tugged on Leons shirt, pulling him towards her. "But you better start thinking, Romeo because you've got yourself a list to write." She placed a kiss on his cheek and made her way outside again to get more plates, the fake smile plastered on her face as she picked up Bellas plate, telling herself that she had been in New York and her and Leon hadn't been together then.

Nicola leant back in the chair as she watched Vince, Jesse, Leon and Letty fight over a basketball on the court in front of her. Propping her feet up on the now empty table she noticed the boys stripping off their shirts in the heat.

Letting out a loud whistle she shouted out.

"Oh yeah Vince, take it all off baby." Vince flipped her the bird and resumed playing while Leon and Jesse shook their heads at her.

"Uh, hey." A small voice said and she looked over to her left to see Bella standing beside her. She gestured to the seat and Nicola nodded, smiling as brightly as she could. Don't scare her off, Nicola told herself as she looked the girl over. Standing up Nicola could see that the girl had a tiny excuse for a skirt over her bikini bottoms and now had a tiny black tank top on over the top with the word 'Spoilt' written across it in hot pink writing.

They sat in silence for awhile, watching the game before Bella finally spoke.

"So, you're a ballet dancer." She sounded a lot more confident than before and Nicola wondered if it was just her that made the girl quiet.

"Yeah, sorry, Mia didn't say where you were from." Nicola replied quickly, glancing at the girl who was still watching Leon intently. Don't be stupid Nicola, she can look as long as she doesn't touch.

"Miami." Bella was sitting up now, leaning her elbow on the table and resting her chin on it. She saw Leon glance over, trying to hide the grimace before he turned back to the game.

"And what brings you back to LA?" Nicola resisted the temptation to snap her fingers in front of the girls face instead sitting on them and pushed herself further back into the chair.

"I'm moving back to go to UCLA. I was going to move in with Mia and Dom but she said the house was full so I'm going to find a place." Nicola silently thanked Mia. She didn't think she could live in the same house with the girl for more than a week.

"Oh great, totally sucks there's not enough room here." Nicola shrugged as the boys finished their game and started making their way back to the house. Vince ran over to her and placed a noisy kiss on her check and rubbing his beard all over her cheek.

"Get off me you freak!" Nicola laughed, slapping at Vince as he wrapped his arms around her and giving her a squeeze before leaving with the other two boys. "Stupid fool, so where are you looking at places to live?" Nicola turned her attention back to Bella.

"Um, nearby. Its not exactly in concrete that I can't live here." She saw a glance out from the younger Torretto towards the back door which was just slamming shut.

"Really? Whys that?" Nicola asked, sitting back on her hands. She knew she was baiting the girl for a hard fall but she couldn't help herself.

"Oh I just, last time I was here me and one of the guys kind of had a thing." She giggled at the end and Nicola rose an eyebrow. This she already knew.

"I was in New York, sadly. So tell me- which one?" Nicola tried to keep the evil thoughts at bay but there was something about the girl.

"Lala! Can you please come here." Mias voice rang through the back door and Nicola groaned and got up. "I'll be back." She said to Bella before making her way into the kitchen.

"What are you doing?" Mia had her hands on her hips and Nicola looked taken aback.

"Ah…making nice with your cousin?"

"I know you Lala." Mia replied before heading towards the living room. Nicola followed her and threw her hands up.

"I don't know what you mean." Mia turned on her now, a smile playing on her lips and Nicola tried not to smile back.

"You're a vindictive bitch when you want to be Lala, give the girl a chance. Retract the claws." Nicola rolled her eyes and put her hands on her hips.

"She seems nice."

"You think she's a skank." Mia replied. She knew her cousin, Bella was a bit of a skank, even if she did play the whole shy act at the start, Mia didn't really blame Nicola for reacting the way she did. But she knew Nicola well enough to know that if the girl threatened Nicola and Leons relationship, Nicola would come out on top.

"Not exactly…"

"Go and harass Leon. I'm going to take my cousin out and when I get back- no claws, Lala." Mia gestured towards the basement stairs, a broad smile on her face as Nicola rolled her eyes but followed her orders, but only because she was taking her new toy away.

"Hey La." Jess and Leon looked up as she walked down the stairs into the dark room.

"Hello. Mia just sent me down here because apparently I'm a bitch." She flopped on the vacant couch and from his position on the floor Leon looked up at her, an eyebrow risen and a small grin on his face.

"You can be a bitch." Jesse said as he pressed the buttons quickly. Nicola moved her knee so it connected with the back of Jesses head.

"Last time I let you sleep in my chest, perv." She messed up Leons hair as she hauled herself off the couch and into their room.

A/N: Well? Okay I made another Toretto just to really stir the pot. Let me know- REVIEW x
