Hi guys...I was on vacation...but finally had a chance to write again.

I'm glad you liked the last chapter..thanks for the reviews.

Happy back to school!

12 All Roads Led To This

Her body trembled under mine…"come give me a massage" those words had sent me over the edge…..things had started off fast and furious…but we had come a long way from the two crazy kids who just wanted to live and drive fast. These days I was all about enjoying the small things in life…I slowed things down taking my time to appreciate every inch of her….the expressions on her face…..the way her body came to me seeking…longing for me…telling me what she wanted. My hands traced the contours of her body sending vibrations in ripples of pleasure to every spot I touched…leaving a trail of goosebumps as I worked my way to the one spot that I knew would send her to heaven and paradise. Making love once you know what love is…once you know you are in love…that is the ultimate high…Letty was my ultimate high..I could stay lost in her forever. It was a feeling that had taken me losing her to realize…I finally saw everything she had been trying to show me. It took me back to the worst advice my father ever gave me….it was right after my mother died…he was drunk out of his mind…"you never want to feel like this Dom…love moderately…..never give more than what is needed…When you give your heart away…you never get it back….the more you love the worse it hurts" I knew he didn't mean it, but still his words stayed in my mind…I lived by them up until I met Letty, she demanded all of me…then when I thought she was dead…I knew exactly what my father had meant…Letty had to know that it was her…she was the only one that could hurt me..I belonged to her….and she had to know that she was mine…physically…emotionally…she belonged to me. Every inch of her loved me…after today she should have no doubt that there could never be anyone but me.

That was….she said as we both laid back on the bed trying to catch our breath…..I hope this is not how you plan on fixing everything …she closed her eyes and ran her hands down her face…revealing a smile full of satisfaction still lost in ecstasy.

I shook my head….If only it were that easy…I laughed as I pulled her back close to me…baby this was always your way of fixing things…I said as my lips softly kissed her bare shoulder finding their way to the very sensitive area around her neck…your favorite ending to every fight…to everything actually….even when I tried to fix things with words…..you jumped me the first chance you had…we both laughed…but it was true.

I see why…can you blame me? she moaned as I continued to run my lips against her skin…be careful now….she warned me..her voice was hoarse and I could tell she was getting excited again….can't think of anything better.

the garage was a favorite…my words came out in a soft moan as I found her lips and kissed them hard….hungry for more of her…I didn't know if I could ever get enough.

I will have to keep that in mind…..she gave me that smile…then laid down with half her body on my chest….I love you!..she told me looking deep into my eyes…her lips formed into a smile….then quickly turned into a frown.

Dom? Her voice was low …what if you would've been too late? You said your biggest fear was that I would've been happy. What if I was happy with the life I led? What If there was someone else in your place?

I swallowed hard….Someone else?. It hadn't even crossed my mind that she too could've found someone during the time that I was gone…the thought of it filled me with jealous anger….rage…Letty was mine. the typical thoughts of a man...Ok for me to do this shit but not for you...Unknowingly she had put me in her shoes…and I had no fucking right to say anything. I had been with Elena…she had to live with that and I would rather not know. I was her first and as long as I got to be her last…I didn't care what happened in between. At least that's what I would have to keep telling myself until I believed that it was true.

Baby It doesn't matter now…..I told her as I kissed her forehead then got up and started to get dressed…we are here…together.

The thought of it just scared me….I could have missed out on this…she got up and wrapped herself around me. I'm glad you found me and that you came for me.

It was never me Letty…you were the one who always found me….you could find me anywhere I went…you tracked me to the D.R…..even now….without knowing…it was you who found me…the picture was no coincidence…it was the way it had to be.

I'm glad we found each other then….this life…this family….this happy ending that I had no idea that I was looking for...there is just always that what if

What if's don't matter Letty….every road would have led you to me and vice versa…sooner or later…maybe I would've had to work a little harder to get you…but I'm in you letty, you have the taste of me on your lips, your body wakes up to my touch….you would've eventually been mine…even if I had to kill someone….I laughed but it wasn't a joke.

Dom there was…..

Dom!…Letty! You up there? It was Mia…right on time….I didn't like what was coming next.

Shhh. It doesn't matter…get dressed we need to go. Payback is a bitch and she had no idea that she had me on my fucking knees. She wasn't over reacting about Elena…if this hell I was feeling right now what half what she had felt….damn…and this motherfucker didn't even have a name yet.

I watched her as she got dressed….who ever said perfection didn't exist…obviously never experienced the sight of a woman like this.

tight pants…tank top…nothing much had changed…except for the boots with the 6 inch heels….Mia's idea I bet.

You enjoying the show…she asked me as she struggled with the last boot.

It's an amazing show…I clenched my teeth thinking about any other asshole that had seen her like this. Those comfortable I said nodding at her feet

They're ok…why? You don't like them….she walked back up to me and wrapped her arms around my neck….I want to look good for you.

No flames….but they do make wonderful enhancements….I said bringing my hands down to her ass….but honestly for me….all you have to do is breathe. I kissed her softly on her lips.

Flames huh…I don't know about that….Breathe….i think I can handle that.

Good….I said and I pulled her out the door.

Mia was at the base of the stairs as we made our way down.

There you are…I was coming up to check on you two. Everything ok? She said looking at Letty….of course she would be her main concern….they had that bond even after all this time…and I had the reputation that once you build up its nearly impossible to shake.

Yea everything is fine…I answered…sorry we took so long

Its fine, but come on lets go. the boys are hungry and I wasn't about to let them start without you…..she turned and walked away

Dom…wait….Letty pulled me back. I know how it feels…I don't want you going out there thinking I'm holding something back.

Letty….I don't need to know everything…this was for my own good..for my sanity.

You need to know this…she grabbed my hand…There's no one else…no one you need to worry about….even when I wish there was….even when I wish I had this history ….the truth is that I don't.

Fuck…I grabbed her face…..I don't deserve you Letty….never have…never will…only you would be worried about how this would make me feel.

You love me Dom….that's good enough for me….she kissed me and pulled me out the door.

Walking out I saw what remained of my family settled around the table…just like old days but different in many ways.

Come on man…I'm hungry…..Roman's voice brought me back from the memories

Man shut the hell up…you act like you haven't eaten in days….Tej always had a response

Ok girls…break it up…Brian told them as he handed me and Letty a couple of beers

Haha…Roman said as we all broke into laughter.

we didn't even take that long man…..Letty said looking at me and biting her lip

Maybe it seems that way cause you were actually enjoying what you were doing…he told her….Letty thought for a moment..…she lifted her beer at him…. you got me there man

Yeah..I know but unlike you guys…I can't survive solely on the food of love…I have been slaving on this grill and I can't even eat the damn food…what the hell man

If I hadn't stepped in…we would be eating charred meat….Han had jokes too.

Guys come on lets all settle down…..Mia said…we are all here now.

It's all love baby…..Alright everyone let's eat! Roman said as he shoved a handful of chips into his mouth

First bite!..Brian pointed at him….he's gotta grace! he said a little to excited…house rules man…house rules

I looked over at Letty as she laughed at everything going on around her…Any of this seem familiar to you? I asked her…even though I knew the answer.

No…she said as she looked around….then back at me…but it feels like home.

I gave her my crooked smile…That's good enough for me!….I took my seat at the head of the table….Letty sat on my lap…the only place that she could be.

Ok everyone…let's do this. Roman bless our table!

We all joined hands….I couldn't help but reminisce about the last group of people that sat around this same makeshift table….Jesse and his prayer about engines….that kid was as good as they came..…and any minute I expected to see Vince come in saying he was sorry about something and kiss me on the head….but that wasn't gonna happen….Jesse and Vince were dead…of this I was for sure…they had both taken their last breath in my arms…where's letty Dom? Vince's words played in my head…he would never get to see that somehow I had been lucky enough to get her back…and Nico…he would never know his father…but he had me and I would always be there to look after him. I looked over at Han and thought about Gisele…the sacrifice that she had made…the sacrifices we had all made so that we could be here today.

Father, thank you for this gathering of friends. Father we give thanks for all the choices we've made, cause that's what makes us who we are. Let us forever cherish the loved ones we've lost along the way. Thank you for the little angel, the newest addition to our family. Thank you for bringing Letty home, and most of all thank you for fast cars...Amen

Wow…that was beautiful Roman….Mia said. I didn't expect it from you.

You got that right…Tej joked again

Man whatever…I can never get a break…can we eat now please.

eat up everyone! Brian said as he raised his beer...To more Sundays like this!

So whats next?...Han asked after a while….I'm heading out to Tokyo in the next few days. I hear they're doing some crazy shit over there. What up with all of you?

That sounds like something I'd want to check out…Letty said looking at me….Tokyo sounds fun

I'll get you there one day…I told her

Yea well Tokyo sound good and all…Tej said…but I'm headed back to the MIA…the shop was always my dream…who knows I might even open one here…a little competition for Toretto's

And when that doesn't work out for you…Brian said….we always have room for another mechanic

Alright!…alright!….ill keep that in mind.

You all are crazy…Roman said…we are fucking filthy rich! Only you guys would think about working

It's not all about the money man Tej replied….It's about having a dream and doing something you love….plus I gotta see about this girl.

Not me man….you wanna know what im gonna do…..im gonna pick up right where I left off….hop into my damn plane and fly around the world. I'm a wonderer man...nothings gonna hold me down…especially not some girl….no disrespect to anyone present. You two are some bad ass….

One day you will eat your words Roman…..there's someone out there for you…Mia said.

Unless she makes me wanna jump out of a moving car…down into the abyss…while there's a fucking tank coming at me…..the minute I start catching feelings….Im outta there man.

Letty squeezed my hand…..that day could've changed our lives forever.

Your forehead would break the fall man…don't even worry about that….Tej was trying hard not to crack up….those two and their love hate relationship

You got jokes ….whatever man…Mia..Brian…what are you two love birds up to…and the little angel too?

This was my dream man…Brian said…I'm right in the middle of it. To bring my son home…my happily ever after with my future wife…he looked at Mia as she blushed and shyly put up her hand to show off the ring with the big fat rock.

Oh shitt! Roman said…another one bites the dust….you two getting married? Party over here! congratulations man!

The table erupted into happiness…hand shakes and hugs all around.

Dom, I didn't even ask you man Brian said as he walked over to me and shook my hand….Letty hugged him then hurried over to Mia.

You kidding man..you already a brother to me….just remember, if you hurt her I will break your neck…. me and the buster had come a long way.

I know man…I know. You don't have to worry about that

I know...this is what I always wanted for my sister. A happy life…married to the man she loves….not the bullshit life she was forced into.

It's the life we chose man…and it led to this….I know she has no regrets…none of us should.

Dom! Mia came over to me and hugged me…Letty had jack in her arms.

I'm happy for you Mia…I love you.

I love you too….this is it Dom..our lives are gonna change forever…we are leaving al that other shit behind…I felt her tears on my shirt.

Mia…come on, I don't want any more tears today…I wiped her face

I know..I know…I'm being a stupid girl.

Whose a stupid girl…Brian came up and hugged her from behind…not my girl!.he kissed her neck...by the way you guys are next…..he said as he pulled Mia away towards the guys.

What do you think Jack…..do you think me and aunt Letty are next?

Cheater…you know Jack is my weakness…..I would do anything he says.

Umm really….I don't know how comfortable I am with that…..I thought I was your weakness

You are…but Jack is just so damn cute.

He is a Toretto after all….I don't see much of O'connor.

I heard that…Brian said walking up to us with Mia laughing at his side…..I don't think I will ever win in this family

Come on Brian…I did let you win once.

Letty come on we don't want to be around for this…Mia said laughing…Let's go put Jack to bed. They disappeared into the house. It had been a long ass day…barely noticed that the sun had begun to set.

I'm still gonna beat you one day man Brian told me

We can call this one wedding present...Roman's big mouth stepped in

You know what…you guys just wait and see

Just let me know when you are ready man

I was born ready man...you just need to stop cheating

if that's what get you through the night..

so what about you big man?...Tej came up to me a patted me on the back..what are you gonna be on?

I thought I'd give normal a try...I'm home...I'm free...I got my girl...this is what I almost died for. I guess I'll see if I can stay out of trouble...get the garage back up and running.

sounds nice man...and fucking boring...Roman said. when the next call comes...you are not gonna catch wasting my life away...im gonna live it up man...who knows, next time may be the last. he was serious on that last part.

we all knew there would be a next time. it was the only thing that we could be sure about. none of us feared death or dying..we would ride together...die together. we were the best team in the world...Hobbs knew this...eventually he would call and we would answer. we were born with danger...trouble breathing down our necks...you could try to control the urge...but you can never kill the beast.

I woke up in the middle of the night...long after I had put Letty to sleep. it had been a long exhausting day..but somehow once I made it back to Letty...the things she did to me...everything would always be ok...I walked downstairs and grabbed a beer...walked out onto the front porch...Brian was already there.

cant sleep either?

naw man..can you believe this? Sometimes I still wake up in the middle of the night and I can't breathe.

I know what you mean..its hard to believe this isn't just a dream.

You told me I would be a great father Dom…but man, I never really believed it until now. Jack….he brings out the best in me. I had already decided that I had to do whatever it took to bring the family home. My son couldn't grow up away from all this….then you showed up and it was like god sent. Letty was alive….and she did it man, whether she knows it or not…se finally brought you home…she brought all of us home.

Yeah…its funny how things work out…..I was mad at god for the longest for taking her away…for putting me through hell..but I wasn't ready for her Brian….the way she loved me was more than I deserved at the time….then one day he put her right in front of my face…..and he still doesn't make it easy….but he gives me the opportunity…and it was up to me to take it.

I get you man….sometimes it's hard to see gods plan for you….sometimes he has to slap you in the face with it...it happened to me...when Letty came home...she put me back in your life..in Mia's life...now look at me..proud father of one...soon to be husband.

yea..I'm glad I didn't kill you back then...we both laughed.

So do you think we can do it man? A mediocre life on the right side of the tracks?

all we can do is try...we are who we are Brian...its not something you can just shake off.

Man who are we kidding?

Its' the life we chose...

SO CAN THEY DO IT? this is all for now...I might come back to edit.

thanks for reading and reviewing.
