Dom ran his finger over the bracelet and then slipped it in his pocket as he stood up. He closed the door, and started locking up. He shook his head wondering what the hell he was going to do. He decided to drive to the cemetery. He walked to the familiar grave sitting in front of it with his back against the stone,
"Dad I messed up"
He paused almost waiting for an answer. But shook her head and kept going,
"You always told me Let was it. And I always thought you were right. You told me not to let her go and I did. But we gave up on each other. She gave up on me, and I found someone who cares. I don't know if you would like her dad. She's different."
He sighed putting his head back on the grave,
"She's pretty, but she's prissy. She can't do anything for her car. But that's alright, right? I mean I can do it for her. I should want to do it for her. But god dad watching Letty work on a car is the sexiest thing I have ever seen. But Bonnie she needs me. You taught me to be there for people"
Dom put his head in his hands as he rocked back and forth,
"Dad she was pregnant. She lost the baby. It broke both of us. I watched her suffer and I couldn't do anything. How am I supposed to just put her through more?"
Dom sighed and looked up at the night sky and just wished he could hear his dad's voice again. It would even just do him good to see him smile one last time. Dom sat there for a couple more hours.
Dom finally left putting a hand on the grave,
"Bye dad, I love you"
He got in his car and started driving. He didn't know where he was going. He was just driving until he realized he had driven to Letty's house. He knew he shouldn't go up there. He knew that he shouldn't go up there, or even be here. He also knew that he didn't know what to do, but he did know he needed her.
She was the only one that could make him feel better after his dad died. He grabbed his key from his pocket and slipped it in the lock, opening it as quietly as he could. He took his shoes off and walked in to her bedroom. He smiled when he heard her light snores; he walked over to her bed and sat beside her pushing her hair out of her face.
Letty stirred a little bit, and opened her eyes,
"Dom…"
"Yeah sorry"
She sat up and looked at him, she knew he was upset. She knew this wasn't about early today. He needed her; she knew he wouldn't be here if he didn't.
"What's wrong?"
Dom just shook his head and connected their eyes,
"Can we just hold each other like we used too?"
Letty nodded and opened her arms as Dom crawled to her putting his head on her chest as she held him to her for dear life.
It was the day after Letty's father had died. She said she wanted to be alone but Dom knew better. He decided to shower and then go sit with her, even if she threw a fit. She did it for him, when Tony died.
He was slipped on his track pants and an old t shirt when he walked out of his bathroom, and she was sitting in the middle of his bed, leaning her chin on her knuckles. He smiled and tilted his head,
"Hey pretty girl"
She smiled a little bit,
"I was thinking"
Dom raised an eyebrow leaning on the door frame,
"What's that?"
"Every time you hold me, I feel like everything is going to be okay"
Dom nodded as she kept going,
"So maybe if you hold me long enough, it'll be okay at least for a little while"
Dom turned off the light walking to her and sitting behind her holding her to his chest. Letty laced their fingers together holding them to her stomach as Dom placed his lips on her hair, whispering,
"It's going to be okay"
Letty nodded,
"Now it is"
Letty rubbed the back of Dom's neck,
"What is it?"
Dom sighed smelling in her scent of coconut and strawberries as he took a breath in to talk,
"I went to his grave"
Letty took a deep breath, she had only known a handful of times he had done that and they were never happy visits.
"Why did you go to his grave?"
"I needed to talk to him"
"Why didn't you talk to Bonnie or V or Mia?"
Dom shrugged,
"It was about Bonnie. As for Mia and V I didn't want to bother them"
Letty laughed,
"So you decided it was alright to come here at four am?"
Dom smiled,
"I can leave"
He looked at her as he pulled away to sit beside her, she shook her head,
"You already woke me up, better just tell me why"
"You don't want to know"
"Try me"
Dom sighed as she curled in to his side; he put a hand on the small of her back as she held on to his shirt. Dom dropped his shoulders,
"I don't know Let. I always thought it would be us"
"It could be us"
"I can't put her through more than I already have"
"What are you talking about?"
Dom shook his head,
"If I tell you, you won't want us anymore"
"Try me."
"I don't know where to start"
Letty shrugged,
"How about we start from the beginning, you never really did tell me how you two met"
Dom looked at her,
"You really want to know all of this?"
"If it'll help you"
He nodded,
"We met at that bar, umm Alex's. I think that's what it's called. "
"The dirty bar across town, why did you go there?"
"I didn't want to run in to anyone we knew. They reminded me of us, they would ask about you."
Letty nodded as he kept going with the story,
"She was at the bar, when I went to get a beer. She told me that she like the shirt I was wearing"
"Which one?"
Dom laughed,
"The purple one"
Letty raised her lip in disgust,
"I hate that shirt"
"That's why I wore it. I wanted to piss you off, in case you showed up"
Letty laughed,
"Same ol' Dominic Torreto"
Dom chuckled a bit,
"Let, this is weird"
"Alright, skip to why you proposed to her then"
Dom sighed,
"Fine, I asked her if she wanted to dance"
Letty nodded, and he kept going,
"So we danced for a bit, she kissed me. We landed up at her place, and I snuck out before she woke up"
Letty looked at him,
"SO she followed you?"
Dom laughed,
"Nope, her car broke down she called the shop and V went to get her and the car. When she got to the garage, she made a joke about not being a cheap date and I owed her a dinner. And then we started dating"
"And then I came back"
Dom nodded,
"Yeah, everything changed. She got possessive. She was still her but I think she knew something was unresolved with us"
"Obviously"
Dom nodded,
"Then one day I walked in on her in the bathroom, and she was taking a pregnancy test"
Letty sat up this time putting a hand on his chest to stop him and to look in his eyes to make sure he was tellnig her the trusth. When she realised he wasn't kidding, her other hand went to her mouth in shock as she barely chocked out,
"What?"
Dom nodded and kept going, even though he saw it in her eyes. She didn't want to hear it anymore. She didn't want to hear it at all.
Next one tomorrow, you're going to get to the root of the problem with Bonnie and Dom and why it's not so easy for him to leave her. I hope you like it, because I have been planning the next chapter for a little while.
