"Damn girl you're looking good. How the hell did you have a baby and your body look better than mine?" Simone told Letty eyeing her figure in her basic black bikini. They were standing at the ice cream stand by the beach. It was the Fourth of July and a group of their friends had invited them to the beach. Dom and Letty had brought Alexus along since he had never gone, and they did not want to spend the day without him.
"Because chasing a toddler all day is all the workout anyone needs." Letty answered.
"You look better than you did before. You even got some Shakira thing going on."
"Really? Don't lie to me." Letty asked happily looking down at her newly attained curves.
"Would I ever?"
"True. Now I don't feel bad for eating this ice cream." Letty said licking her cone as they headed back to the beach. She no longer had her small pregnancy pouch, but instead a flat tummy, though it was not as toned as it once had been. However, constant squatting when she played with Alexus firmed up her legs and thighs.
"Dom!" Letty yelled from the water's edge when she saw him deep in the ocean with their son. "Don't go so far!"
"He's fine!" He yelled back.
"Just go waist deep! The waves are pretty strong!" Letty yelled out as she saw the water meet Dom's chest.
"He's fine!" Dom repeated returning his attention to the laughing toddler in his arms. He had been submerging Alexus under water and lifting him up in the air.
"'gain, 'gain!" The child demanded joyously.
"Again?" Dom cooed at the boy and laughed. Letty stood at the shore watching them nervously.
"I think I'm gonna go get him. I don't like him that far in." She told Simone.
"Will you relax. You really think Dom's gonna let anything happen to him?"
"Not intentionally. I almost drowned one time, and I was older than he is now."
"Were you being watched?"
"No, but-"
"Alright then let it go, and finish your ice cream. Are you guys coming to the party tonight?"
"Tony offered to babysit, but I don't know. Alexus doesn't like to go to sleep without breastfeeding."
"I thought you were weaning him off?"
"I am."
"You've been saying that for four months."
"It's a process!" Letty said defensively.
"Right." Simone said disbelievingly.
"Whatever."
"Can you come? Please! I miss you." Simone said feigning a sniffle and hugging her.
"Can you not?"
"Don't you miss it? Remember when we used to drop it like it's hot and drive everybody crazy?" Simone continued to persuade her. "Don't you miss getting on tables, and being drunk for no reason? Remember when we used to toke up in your car after every race because it was the only time we could afford to buy it from Tyrone?"
"Alright already!" Letty said with a laugh. "You do get I'm a mom now, right?"
"Yeah, maybe you shouldn't smoke or drink too much, but you can still shake that laffytaffy. You feel me?" Letty laughed at her friend.
"You're right. I should go. It should be fun. I just don't want drama. You know these girls are always trying to get at Dom. It's so fucking annoying. It's like no matter what I do they still try." Though Letty had only raced once since giving birth, she did not find herself all that immersed in the scene as she once was. She reveled in the adrenaline rush, but found herself disinterested in everything else. She witnessed racer chasers go after Dom despite he not showing them any attention. Since she had been laying low some of the new girls were oblivious to Dom's relationship status. It angered her, but decided she was not going to risk getting arrested by getting into street fights like she used to.
"Yo fuck them hoes. You know your place and where you stand, so don't let that shit get to you."
"You're right. I'm gonna go." Letty affirmed and the girls sat on their beach towels to sun bathe. Dom joined them a few minutes later. His body glimmered in the sunlight as water droplets ran down his muscles. Letty bit her lip at the sight of him. She had always shallowly worshiped his body.
"Mami!" Alexus called out to her from Dom's arms distracting her from her thoughts.
"Did you have fun baby?" Letty asked him taking him when he reached for her.
"Ya, ya, ya" He said clapping his hands together. "'gain!" Letty laughed at her son. He had been enamored with the beach. Alexus loved playing with the sand and watching his handprints wash away at the shore.
"I'm gonna go play football with the guys." Dom told her toweling himself off.
"Play! Play!" Alexus chanted.
"Maybe in a few years." Dom said with a chuckle. "We should put him in peewee football when he gets old enough." He told Letty.
"I don't know if I want him to play football."
"It's the best sport there is."
"We'll see."
"My kid ain't gonna grow up to be a dweeb, Let."
"Whatever, do you wanna go to that party later?"
"You wanna go?"
"Kinda." She told him.
"I'm down." He said casually and she smiled. Letty was surprisingly excited for the night ahead of her.
Later that evening they dropped off Alexus at Tony's home, and headed back to the apartment to dress for the party that night. "You know, I'm gonna miss these." Letty said holding her breast in front of the mirror. "Probably not as much as you, but I never thought I wanted boobs before God gave them to me."
"They were fun, really fun." Dom said putting on his shirt.
"I hope you don't go thinking I'm gonna go get a boob job now that their probably going back to how they were."
"We would break up if you did that." He told her while tying the laces of his boots.
"What?" Letty exclaimed.
"If you did that shit you wouldn't be who I thought you were. If I wanted a Barbie I would have gotten a Barbie, plus that shit don't look right after a couple years."
"Damn man, that's cold."
"You planning on getting some work done or something?"
"No, but it's the way you said it."
"Listen your body belongs to me, so anything you do has to be pre-approved and given my consent."
"I'm getting a haircut by the way." Letty informed him.
"No, you're not."
"It's happening, sorry. It's too hot to have it this long. I hope that isn't a deal breaker for you. I'd hate to have to let you go." She said dramatically.
"If you cut your hair Ima grow a beard."
"Eww"
"Yeah, try me. I have no problem not shaving." Dom threatened.
"Fine grow it. I just hope you know I won't be touching you with that thing on your face."
"We'll see about that."
"Mhm, we shall."
"You trying to race tonight?" He asked her.
"I feel like we should stop, but I just can't seem to say no."
"It's not like we do it like we used to. I've been getting practice time with the pit crew now that I've been with them a couple of months. I may stop all together if they start letting me race."
"They will eventually, but that means I still have no alternatives."
"Don't worry baby I'll let you get taste of the track once I'm in for real." She responded with a shrug. They finished getting dressed and headed out in their separate cars. The scene felt almost alien to Letty until she hit the pedal at the starting mark and went for the win. Excitement coursed through her veins and stomach felt like it was about to burst. For ten seconds she felt like her old self again, the wild teenager that did not have a care in the world. Almost two years before, Letty had no worries, no baby, no real responsibility. Although she loved her son, a part of her missed how things used to be.
"Here you go Mamita." Hector said handing her four thousand dollars.
"Thanks man" Letty grabbed the large stack and moved to where Dom stood. A girl was hoping to nab his attention, but was not succeeding. Letty came up to them and with one threatening glare the girl was off. Dom gave Letty a half smile and leaned down to kiss her, but she moved her head in the opposing direction.
"Don't you want a victory kiss?" He asked her cheekily.
"Not from you."
"Who from then?"
"Oh I don't know, maybe that guy." Letty said pointing at a random racer.
"Letty don't act up. I'm not trying to fight anyone tonight." Dom told her warningly. Letty had a past of riling Dom up by flirting with other men, and it would often end with Dom breaking someone's nose.
"Who's acting up?" She asked feigning innocence.
"I only said like two words to that girl."
"That's one too many."
"What did you want me to do?"
"Real simple, tell her to fuck off."
"Yeah because that wouldn't make me an asshole." He said sarcastically.
"Fine, do what you want Dominic. I don't have chains on you."
"Come on Let don't be like that." He said pecking her lips. "You look so hot. I was hoping to get lucky tonight." He said playing with the waves of her hair.
"Well you can. Maybe it just wont be with me." Letty said coldly. Dom chuckled before grabbing Letty's face to bring her into a deep kiss.
"Nah, I want you baby." He told her smoothing his hand over her backside. Letty wore a slightly high-waisted black leather skirt with a tight fitting long sleeved white crop-top. It had been a long time since Dom had seen her in such a daring outfit and it was driving him crazy.
"Dom stop. People are starting to stare." Letty said parting from his lips.
"So?" Dom said nibbling her ear.
"Not here." She finalized escaping his grasp.
"Tease." Dom said placing his arm around her shoulder. Letty hated PDA, especially at the races where people loved to gossip and place input on their relationship; though most knew nothing about it.
"Yo guys! Everyone's gonna head to the party. You two coming?" Vince asked them a short while later.
"Yeah man, we're stopping by." Dom answered getting off the hood of his car. Letty moved from her place in between his legs, and headed to her Torino Cobra. "We should drop off the cobra." He suggested to her.
"You trying to get me drunk or something?"
"Maybe." Dom told her as he climbed into his car. Letty took Dom up on his offer. Simone was planning on getting her drunk that night, and Letty was not one to drive under the influence. Once the couple left Letty's car by their apartment, they drove to the party a few miles away. They entered through the back of the dimly lit house as music bled through the speakers.
"'Ey!" Simone said grabbing Letty as soon as she saw her. They had only been there a few minutes, therefore Dom decided to mingle among guests as Simone dragged Letty across the party. Simone took hold of a tequila bottle and waved it at her. "Meet my friend Jose. You two should get to know each other."
"We already do. He and I go way back." Letty said with a laugh. She picked up a shot glass and threw it back.
"Shit's gonna be poppin off tonight!" Simone exclaimed excitedly.
"Another" Letty said pushing the shot glass in her direction. They drank a few more shots before heading to the dancefloor, and started to groove to the beat. They playfully danced with one another until two guys came up behind them to dance. Dom had not noticed because he was hanging out in the kitchen with a few guys.
"And then she was like, 'who you been with' and I'm like, 'you, who else?' Why these bitches gotta be so fucking paranoid and shit? It's annoying." His friend Cory complained.
"Maybe because you're cheating on her." Dom suggested.
"If it's in a different area code it aint cheating."
"That's the dumbest shit I've ever heard." Dom responded.
"Nah, it's true." Vince said. "Everyone knows that."
"Who has that ever worked with?" Dom challenged.
"Bianca."
"She don't count. She's a slut."
"It's still valid."
"Whatever man, don't be surprised when it all blows up in your face." Dom said with a shake of his head. "I'm gonna go to the bathroom." He made his way through the party and abruptly stopped when he saw Letty bent over grinding against another guy. He took a deep breath to control his anger. The last time they found themselves in a similar situation it had ended in their only break-up, hence he took precaution before acting. He walked up in front of them and snatched Letty away from her dancing partner.
"What? What's going on?" She asked confused.
"Hey man, we're dancing here." The guy said holding Letty's waist.
"Get your hands off her." Dom said evenly.
"It doesn't seem like the girl wants to go."
"Don't make me repeat myself." Dom said squaring his shoulders and relieving the tense muscles in his neck by cocking it from side to side.
"It's ok." Letty told the guy pulling Dom away before he actually did anything. She brought him outside and crossed her arms over her chest. "Are you gonna let me enjoy myself or not because we can just leave? I don't wanna deal with your shit right now."
"His hands were all over you!" Dom said enraged.
"No they weren't." Letty countered calmly.
"Yes they were."
"You always say that."
"You know how I feel about it."
"Don't be a hypocrite, 'nah baby she's just friendly'" Letty said deepening her voice and imitating him.
"Girls aren't touching my ass Let." Dom said angrily glaring at her.
"His hands weren't on my ass, they were on my hips!"
"No one should have their hands there either."
"Jesus Christ! You're being being ridiculous."
"No one is supposed to touch you, but me."
"I'm going back inside. You can sulk out here."
"Let me not catch him around you again." Dom yelled behind her, and Letty waved him off before returning to the party.
"Everything ok?" The guy asked when he spotted her a few minutes later.
"Yeah, he's my boyfriend. Don't worry about it."
"Boyfriend? Damn."
"What?"
"Nothing, I've seen you in my class and I thought I'd try and talk to you, but I didn't know you had a man."
"So you can't talk to me if I have a man?" Letty challenged.
"Well he don't seem to like me talking to you."
"I decide who I talk to, not him."
"Well then in that case, what's your name?" He asked her with a grin. The two continued on with a conversation and Letty learned that the boy's name was Luis and they were taking the same communication's class at the local community college. He was nice enough, and she kept a comfortable distance so that Dom would not have a fit.
"Why don't you come with me?" Dom suggested coming up behind her and grabbing her arm.
"Dom meet Luis. We have class together." Letty introduced them ignoring Dom's irritation.
"Nice to meet you man." Luis said holding his hand out. Dom did not take it, but instead just pulled Letty to him and directed her to a random room in the foreign house.
"Dom that was rude." She said pulling herself out of his grasp.
"You were talking to him for like half an hour."
"And? He had good things to say."
"Like what? He was staring at your tits the whole time!"
"No he wasn't. I would have stopped talking him if he did that."
"I don't like him."
"You don't know him."
"I know he wants to see what's under that skirt!" Dom snapped. He was practically fuming. Letty stepped forward closing the small gap between them, and encircled her arms around his neck.
"Baby don't be mad." She said kissing his lips. Dom reluctantly returned it. "You know you're the only one who's ever gonna see under this skirt."
"Don't talk to him." Dom commanded her.
"But he's gonna help me with homework." Letty said with a pout.
"I'll help you with homework." She laughed at his absurdity.
"Damn you've been in my class all this time? How did I not see?" She told him cheekily.
"Just stay away from him." Dom asserted once again.
"You really think I'd let someone touch me like you do?" Letty murmured bringing his hand to her breasts. Dom fondled them lightly and bit his lip while he watched her react to his touch. He aggressively brought his lips to hers and span her around so that her back faced the wall. His hands wandered over her body as they groped each other.
"Let's go home." Letty breathed out mid kiss.
"Let's do it right here." Dom said squeezing her ass, and he pushed her up against the wall. Letty's tongue continued to tease his skin, her desire clouding her thoughts.
"You wanna feel what you do to me?" Letty asked bringing Dom's hands between her legs. She shut her eyes when she felt his pleasure filled hand against her.
"I do that?" He asked with a smirk at the feel of her moist center.
"A-huh, I always want you this much." She whispered to him. Dom dragged his hands beneath her skirt and ripped off her black-laced panties.
"I wanna fuck you so bad." Dom grunted into her neck.
"I want you to." She said lightly wrapping herself around him. "I wanna feel you inside me."
"Fuck Let, I'm so hard it hurts." Their breaths were heavy though they had yet to join together.
"I'll relieve you baby." Letty moaned out as Dom grazed her entrance with the tip of his pulsing erection. She threw her head back as Dom's tongue massaged her neck. "You gonna show me how much you want me Dominic?" She asked him as he made his way inside her and started a steady pace. "I want you to show me just how much you want it Papi." She enticed before engaging him in a kiss.
"God! There ain't nothing like the feel of you." Dom growled in her ear as he moved in and out of her.
"Yes baby, keep going, just like that." Letty said gripping his neck. "Uh!"
Dom vigorously moved within her causing her body to bang lightly against the wall. "Arg...I love you"
"Uh! Say it again." She begged him.
"I love you." He repeated.
"Ungh!" Letty moaned loudly with a shiver. Dom slowed down his movements and they slid down to the ground. "I love you so much Dominic." She said caressing his face, and looking into his eyes. Dom came within seconds of Letty's love proclamation, and it took him several minutes to gather his head from spinning.
"Damn girl, that shit was on point." He said in appraisal.
"Mmm, I'm happy you enjoyed yourself." Letty said almost catlike, and she kissed him soundly. "I know I did." Letty adjusted her top and put her ripped underwear in her bra while Dom continued to gather his breaths on the ground.
"Why does every party end this way? This can't be normal."
"I assure you Dominic we're anything but normal. We should go."
"You sure?"
"I can't exactly get down with my ass out. Must you always ruin my underwear?"
"No one told you to wear a skirt."
"I wonder what Alexus is doing right now?" Letty asked aloud pensively.
"It's two am, what do you think he's doing?"
"Maybe he couldn't fall asleep."
"I called Pops and he said he was out like a light."
"I did too, but you never know."
"He's fine." Dom assured.
"Well I guess we could stay."
"I have to volunteer at the pit early tomorrow, but it's been awhile since we been out like this."
"I feel bad for whoever's room this is. I would kill someone for doing shit like this in our room."
"Oh well they should have locked the door." Dom said with a shrug. "You wanna go again?"
"Ehh, why not." Letty said before Dom grabbed her and pinned her to the ground.
