Dom tilted his head,
"What the hell are you talking about?"
She sighed,
"I know what it feels like"
"How? Let, we both know that you have slept with three people in your life and the first two don't count"
Letty put her hands on his shoulder, trying to calm him down,
"Please just let me explain"
He stayed quiet, and looked at her begging for answers. Letty let out a breath trying to find the right words,
It had been two months in the Dominican with her grandmother. She was lost and lonely. She hadn't done much but managed to make her skin darker.
She hadn't noticed she hadn't gotten her period until one of her cousins asked her if she had a tampon. Then it was a spiral. She was freaking out; she didn't know what to do. She had lost Dom, she was in another country, and she was having a baby.
She had never missed her period in her life; she didn't know what else it was. So she decided to go and get a test. When she saw those two little lines she knew it was for real. She touched her stomach and couldn't help but feel happy.
It was a month later that she decided that was it. She was going to go home; she was going to win Dom back. They were going to be happy again.
Dom stopped her,
"You weren't pregnant when you got home, did you…"
Letty shook her head,
"Of course not"
"Then…"
Letty started again,
"When I got back, I went to the doctor's he said it was a false positive. He said it was a possible side effect of my birth control. I was going to tell you, but then the day I moved in to my apartment you said you had a girlfriend. You seemed happy, I didn't want to rein that."
"So you decided to suffer in silence?"
Letty nodded,
"I didn't want to hurt you anymore"
Dom put a hand on her cheek,
"Let, you should have told me"
"Nothing would have changed"
"You don't know that"
"Neither do you"
Letty sighed as she put her head on his shoulder, and Dom put his hands on her back. Letty started whispering,
"It broke my heart; it felt like something was ripped from me. Something I didn't know I wanted but the minute I thought I was carrying our child. I knew it's what I wanted."
Dom kissed her hair,
"I wish you would have told me"
Letty nodded in to his neck,
"Me too"
Letty couldn't help but ask,
"I don't want to push you, but I need to know what you're thinking"
Dom stayed quiet for a minute and Letty kissed his neck encouraging him to say something, he finally started talking,
"I was thinking that I need some time"
Letty pulled back and put her lips together looking at him,
"Alright"
Right now all she needed was for him to hold her. To say he loved her. God knew he wanted too but it was a lot to take in. Letty moved off of him, he looked at her. He whispered,
"Get some sleep"
Letty nodded as he kissed her forehead, for just an extra second. Dom left quietly looking at the pictures she had hanging on the wall, all the memories washed over him.
"Let I still can't believe you got Dom to agree to go to prom"
Letty laughed,
"I can't believe Mia got me to agree"
Tony responded,
"You are all going to have fun"
Dom smiled as he put an arm around Letty. Letty leaned in to him, she wouldn't say her dress was that girly, but if she was going to go to prom she was going to experience it. She had a dark blue dress that hugged her curves with blue sparkles on the bottom of it.
Tony had moved on to the other couples, and left them to be alone. Letty was fixing his tie and he smiled at her kissing her forehead when Tony snapped a picture of them. They laughed and turned,
"Dad"
He shrugged,
"You two aren't usually cute"
Letty laughed and put a hand on her chest,
"Ouch"
He waved her off,
"You know what I mean"
Dom smiled and whispered in her ear,
"You look so-"
"Ridiculous?"
Dom shook his head,
"Beautiful"
Letty smiled taking his face in her hands kissing him sweetly. They pulled away when they saw another flash, Dom groaned,
"Dad really?"
Tony chuckled, turning back to Mia. Letty smiled and shook her head,
"So what do I have to do to make you dance with me tonight?"
Dom put a finger to his chin and hummed,
"I'm pretty sure if you ask, there's a pretty good chance"
Letty raised an eyebrow,
"Oh yeah?"
Dom nodded and kissed her gently, again another flash went off. The couple just pulled away,
"Tony how many do you want?"
He shrugged,
"I want you to remember these moments. They make you who you are"
Letty smiled as Mia and Vince walked over. Tony squeezed them all together,
"My core four"
They laughed at the nickname, and Tony snapped the picture. Then Tony set the camera on the tripod and joined them in the middle. He screamed,
"CARS"
Because none of them could say it without smiling. It was the last picture they had all together; it was only six months later that Tony died.
Dom hand a finger over the pictures, he was thankful for these pictures, he heard Letty walk out of her room,
"Weren't you leaving?"
He nodded,
"Yeah, just got distracted"
Letty smiled,
"Those are the moments that define us"
Dom nodded,
"I better go"
Letty bit her lip and replied,
"Unless you want some coffee?"
He smiled and nodded,
"I would love too"
They started walking towards her kitchen and Letty started the pot sitting on the counter, and yawned, Dom looked at her,
"You could have gone back to sleep"
She shook her head,
"When I'm up, I'm up"
Dom nodded,
"Sorry"
She shrugged,
"Felt good to get everything out"
Then there was a bang on the door and Letty jumped off the counter to get it. She opened the door and saw Mia and Vince looking very frantic. She raised an eyebrow,
"It is six o'clock in the morning. Could this not have waited?"
Mia shook her head,
"Let, Dom didn't come home last night."
Vince added,
"We need you and your brain to find him"
She shrugged, and put her hands to her temples.
"In my kitchen"
Mia and Vince exchanged glances, and smirked. Vince started,
"You two finally got back together."
Letty shook her head walking back in to her apartment as they followed her. Almost tripping over each other in excitement, Dom looked at them,
"What's up with you two?"
Vince put his hand up for a high five, but Dom shook his head,
"What is your problem?"
"You two finally got back together"
Letty stopped him,
"He crashed on my couch"
Vince's smile turned to a frown and sat on the chair, putting his head on the counter, groaning and mumbling something to the effect of 'I got no sleep and no juicy sex story. Not fair'.
Dom looked at Letty and she just shrugged a bit encouraging him to go along with it, so finally he just nodded adding,
"I didn't want to wake Bonnie up"
Mia sat beside her brother,
"Well she is freaking out. So good luck with that when you get home"
You guys are amazing. Thank you for the reviews.
