Brian and Dom made it through security and they were being shown their seats in first class and through the whole process Dom was still amazed. This would be the first time he flew in first class and he felt Brian tighten his grip around his waist. Dom thought he was laying on the newly married thing a little thick but he appreciated the concern. He didn't really have a fear of flying but it made him a little uneasy at the beginning. Brian showed him where his seat was and Brian asked, "Do you want the aisle or the window?"
"The window seems alright." Dom replied as he sat in the seat getting comfortable in the soft leather and deep cushions.
Brian put all their bags in the overhead compartment and then sat next to Dom. "Any time you want to switch seats just let me know."
"Okay I'll let you know."
"First time in first class?" Brian asked curiously as he watched Dom take in his seat and looking out the window.
"Yeah. This is really nice. Thanks."
Brian grinned and said, "Not a problem. Only way to fly when you have to." Dom understood Brian's comment and watched as Brian waved a flight attendant over. "A blanket and two scotches when you start serving."
"Coming right up Mr. Torrence."
When she left to go get their drinks Dom asked, "How does she know your name?"
"They tend to know their first class passengers." Brian said as he flashed their attendant a smile.
"Maybe first class isn't the way to fly." Dom asked worriedly as he glanced around him at the other passengers.
"We'll be alright Dan. Scotch is okay isn't?" Brian reminded Dom as he laced their fingers together and his thumb fell back into a soothing motion over Dom's hand.
"Yeah. I can sip it."
"Do you want me to get you something else? I'm sure they have Coronas if you want that instead. I'm a scotch person when I don't have to be on the job."
Dom glared at Brian and said, "I like scotch just fine."
Taking in Dom's attitude Brian said smartly, "Maybe a pain pill wouldn't be bad either."
Dom managed just to grunt and reached for his pain pills. He pulled two out just their drinks and the blanket arrived. Brian thanked the attendant and Dom asked, "Who's the blanket for?"
"You because I know you get cold when you go to sleep." Brian said as he handed Dom the blanket before he gave him his scotch.
"You never knew my dad's name but you know that. Again your brain." Dom said as he covered his legs with the blanket before taking his pain pills.
Brian helped him fix the blanket and Dom relaxed into his seat after he put the seatbelt on. "I observe. That's my job. It helped that I like you."
"I know it is. If I go to sleep you'll keep an eye for anything right?" Dom asked worriedly.
"Yeah I will. Don't worry about anything." Brian reassured.
Dom looked over Brian and said, "Sorry I'm snapping at you. This is supposed to be a fun trip."
"It's okay. You're safe and I'm safe. We'll go as far as we need to be safe."
"Are Vince, Mia, and Jesse safe?" Dom asked as he bit his lip.
"Jackie's watching over them but I'll be honest and say that they'll probably have to move for a while just like us. Owen knows I've been in LA so he'll be combing the city when he learns I'm not there anymore."
Dom sat back up and growled, "I thought my sister would be safe."
"She will be. As soon as Vince is released and can handle a plane ride then I've got a safe spot for them to go."
Dom frowned, "If I didn't ask when would you have told me about moving them?"
Brian ran his hand over his hair and said, "Probably right before I call to set up the arrangements. Jackie would watch your garage and market if you want him to or we can close them down temporarily."
"If we weren't in first class I'd punch you right now." Dom said as he glared out the window and sipped his scotch.
"I deserve it okay and I'm really sorry that things worked the way they did. I just didn't want to see you in jail." Brian said taking Dom's hand in his and squeezing gently.
"Well I'm going to rest. If I'm not awake then wake me up when we land." Dom said seeing nothing better to do but left his hand in Brian's even though he was feeling a little angry at him right at that point.
"I will." Brian said as he got comfortable in his own seat and worked on his first scotch while the plane was taxiing out onto the runway. After takeoff Dom fell asleep and Brian worked on his second scotch.
Brian occasionally watched Dom sleep throughout the flight. He didn't like that he had to separate Dom's only family and take him thousands of miles away from what he called home. He knew his plans for Mia and the other two to keep them safe from Owen - he just wished he knew where Letty and Leon got off to so he could protect them. He sighed in frustration that he might be too late when he did find him.
Agent Bilkins had put in calls to the borders of Mexico and Canada with APBs on Dominic Toretto and former federal agent Brian O' Conner. He hoped that would get the ball moving on finding where the two men went. He scrubbed his face with his hands and couldn't believe he accepted Owen's offer but things weren't going well at home and the money would help. He wanted to hit his head against the wall but he'd live with the consequences if there happened to be any. He knew O' Conner on his own completely would take every precaution he knew and slide through the cracks.
Owen had his plane ready for his two guests (at least that's what he called them to their face) and they took off from Mexico City. He had Germany as their main destination as there were plenty of jobs that needed taking care of before they moved along the countries. He had told Letty and Leon that he needed drivers and people who could handle weapons to be able to work for him. Letty jumped right in with a snarl about her being the one to kill Brian when she saw him. He saw Leon was a little more hesitant but he agreed because he was angry that Dom hadn't called to check on them and it had been almost week since everything went down, they were supposed to be family. And if Owen was right about Brian and Dom being in love with each other then before Letty killed Brian he was going to beat his ass. Owen hoped to capitalize on all the anger he felt from these two who were supposedly a part of Dom's team and family but were feeling very excluded at the present moment.
