Dom's POV

The next morning 10 a.m.

One minute I'm sleeping peacefully, and the next I'm being slapped across the face by a tiny hand. I open one eye, so I can catch the culprit red handed. But he's no longer in sight.

"JACK?!"

I make my way out of bed and start to head over to the dresser to grab a shirt when my nephew jack jumps out from inside the closet.

"Rawr." He yells, attempting to make his arms small imitating a T-Rex.

Grabbing my chest, I stumbling backwards onto the floor. I try to make him believe he frightened. "Wow! Jack you're a really scary dinosaur."

"You were scared?" he asks as his face lights up.

"Yea, you got me good. Now who told you to come wake me up?"

First he looks out of the bedroom and around the corner to make sure no one can hear him. He leans in close and mouths "Mommy and Letty"

"Oh they did, did they?"

While nodding his head he asks for a piggy back ride down the stairs.


Meanwhile downstairs.

"Jack, come on lets go we have to go get daddy. I don't know where he gets so much energy. I can hardly keep up."

Letty laughs. "He's a boy. He's supposed to be a little hyper."

Mia's about to reply when I run in, holding Jack out airplane style and start flying him around the girls.

"Well, well, well look who's up."

"Hey, Let" I greet her as I come around and kiss her on the cheek while setting jack down in front of Mia. "Hey, Mi what are you doing here?"

"Oh I just came to see the house, it turned out great, and you would've never guessed that anything has ever happened to it."

"Yea, it did. Where's Brian?"

"Oh, he went to go buy a new barbeque."

"The buster can cook?" I ask raising an eyebrow.

"He tries. So hard" she says with a deflated laugh. "Anyways, what are you guys up to today?"

"Just have to head over to Harry's and pick up a new part for the new Chevelle."

"And Mia by new, he means new to us. It's really a piece of junk, long shot but Dom thinks he can make something out of her. So we'll see"

Mia's cell phone starts to go off indicating a new text message. "Okay guys we really have to go but I love you both. Jack go say goodbye."

"Bye auntie Letty. Bye Uncle Dom."

After a few hugs and kisses they were gone.

"So did you enjoy your surprise wakeup call?" letty asks rubbing my reddened cheek.

"I'm going to get you back for that." I threaten as I go to finish getting ready.


After arriving at The Racers Edge, now ran by Harry's son James, we are waiting at the counter for him to retrieve our ordered parts. As Letty begins to look around, I turn around to see what's taking the kid so long. Its then, that I notice an exchange between him and a young lady in the back. I can't quite figure it out, but for some reason I feel like I know her. I've definitely seen her before. She's way too young for us to have hooked up, and she wasn't coming off as a racer chaser from the smudges of grease that ran up her forearms and the coveralls that were tied off at her waist.

"See something you like?" I hadn't even heard her walk up behind me.

"Hey Let, she look familiar to you?" I ask looking over in the young girl's direction.

"I don't know, I just can't really tell from here." After a few more minutes I had given up the guessing game and started to talk to Letty about the races that were happening later tonight. Hector was hosting them and had invited us out. We decided that we didn't want to be rude, so we would make an appearance. It had been awhile since I've raced on these streets anyway.

Finally! After what felt like 15 minutes I saw the girl pat James on the back and turn to leave.

"Umm, sorry about that, but here are your parts so you should be all set"

"Thanks" I say as Letty and I grab the parts and turn to leave.

"Sorry again." I hear him yell after us.


Later that night, we had just pulled into the races and were greeted by a swarm of people some old and some new all wanting to get a look at the living legends. That had owned the streets of L.A. only moving on to dominate in Mexico, Brazil, The DR, London and Abu Dhabi. After the crowd had dispersed and Letty and I were able to walk around without being hassled we begin to make our way to the sidelines to watch some of the early races. As we make our way to an open spot, from across the starting line I spot the girl from Harry's that afternoon. So maybe I was wrong about her, maybe she is a racer chaser. I watch as she is chatting up some blonde punk, when in the distance a taller guy begins to make his way over to the two when he sees the blonde about to hand the girl a beer he knocks it to the floor and I can't tell what he says but the blonde turns and heads back to his car. The girl looks unfazed by the whole exchange and simply raises an eyebrow waiting for a response. I see the guy hand her a beer and after she takes it he walks away.

"Look familiar?" I turned around to see Hector already going into hug letty.

"Hector, you're still running these things man?"

"Yea but not for long. You see that guy by the Camaro? That's my cousin, showing him the ropes so I can get the hell out of here."

"Hey, sorry man, you know for the whole punching you in the face thing" letty's says with a nervous laugh

"Nah. It's cool baby girl. Don't sweat it."

"Hey before you go Hector, do you know who that is?" I ask as I point out Harry's girl to him.

As he squints his eye bursts into laughter "Are you kidding? You're joking, right? You don't know who that is? …Wow, okay…yea that's…"

As I wait on hector to finally give me an answer his cousin and a few other racers start to call him over. "Hector! Come one dawg stop playing around. Let's get started. Come on man!"

Hector turns and starts jogging towards them "Alright, alright let's go. Have em line up, Dom we'll talk later"

"Hector? The girl?"

"Yea, yea" he shouts back not paying attention to what I just asked.

"Maybe you're putting too much into. Let it go Dom" letty tells me while wrapping her arm around my waist as I drape my arm around her shoulders.

"Yea, maybe you're right"

All the cars are lined up and ready to go and the drivers start to make their way over to the cars. I watch as the taller guy from earlier makes his way over to the last car. I see him open the door and expect him to get in when I see Harry's girl walk up and slide into the driver's seat while he closes the door behind her. I seemed to have caught his eye because all of a sudden he is staring at me very seriously, almost like he's thinking something over. He then bends down and starts to speak with the girl through the window and makes his way over to the sidelines to let the race begin. His eyes never leaving mine and his arms crossed over his chest.

The flag girl walks in front of all four cars and asks if they're ready. Each begin reeving there engine indicating they are. Just as she's about to drop the flag Harry's girl turns her head staring right at me and Letty. At first she looks shocked, but then she smirks and shakes her head at us and in a flash she's off. Then it all clicked. I knew exactly who she was. How could I forget, well in my defense it had been over 10 years.

"Natalia?" I hear letty whisper in disbelief
