A/N: Because this weekend is gonna be crazy ;), and finals will soon rear their ugly heads this will be the last official chapter for this story. I hope it doesn't disappoint since a lot of you did express some concern. You guys have been amazing! I've really enjoyed writing this. Some of you suggested a sequel, but idk yet. I kinda want to get back to Fast Times. I'm not opposed to an epilogue. That would be more doable. So, let me know what you guys think! General overall feedback is encouraged. I love reading reviews!

Dom tracked Christine down in order to force her to reveal the truth. She was harder to locate than he had anticipated. She had moved, and he could not find her name in the phone book or the directory. Gabby refused to give him information of her whereabouts, despite any threats he gave her. Dom had feared Christine had left the city, but then remembered a park she had mentioned she enjoyed going to during nice weather. Dom staked out the spot for two days until she finally showed. The young girl looked different, worn down even. Her face was still lightly bruised from the beating Letty had given her, and she did not have the glow he normally saw in her. He walked up behind Christine and grabbed hold of her arm.

"Dom!" She gasped in both surprise and alarm.

"Christine I need you to set the record straight."

"I did." She gritted out. "Let go. You're hurting me."

"Why did you tell Letty we had been together?"

"Dominic let's not play games. We both know it was a matter of time before we did. If she had come in a few minutes later she would have found us in a very different position."

"That's not true. I said no enough times."

"Yeah, but your eyes and your body were saying very different things."

"You're so full of shit."

"Am I? Or are you scared to admit the truth to yourself?"

"No, you're crazy."

"You're in denial."

"You know Christine, Letty's not the only girl I know who can pack a mean punch. Maybe you're in need of a new nose before you finish recovering from your last one." He warned.

"Are you threatening me?"

"I don't know. Am I?" He asserted menacingly. "What is it with you? Is this about money? You know I don't have any, right?" Christine stared at him hesitantly. "I never led you on. Every time you flirted with me I was nice about it, but I always made it clear I wasn't interested in you." Christine looked away shamefully at Dom's words. "You need to tell the truth. You ruined my family. How can you live with at?"

"I had to do it." Christine whispered.

"What do you mean you had to do it?"

"I needed the money."

"I already told you I don't have money."

"When Gabby hired me I was in a rough spot. I was staying with this woman Heidi who took me in when I was a runaway a few years ago. I thought it was a safe haven, but I was just one of many girls. She sold us out to people for whatever they wanted with no way out. Gabby told me she'd get me out if I could get rid of Letty."

"Get rid of Letty? For what?"

"I don't know, I guess she felt she could control you better, but then...I don't know. It became more than the job. I like you, and I was hoping to get you to fall for me, not just sleep with me."

"That would have never happened."

"I hoped it would." She confessed.

"And so did she get you out? Now that Letty and I are no longer together."

"No, it wasn't how she wanted it so I'm back to where I started."

"This is fucked up." He commented, and Christine gave Dom a pitiful shrug.

"I'm still recovering from the bruising so Heidi hasn't done much with me since she got me back, or changed my name like she usually does."

"So you're a prostitute?"

"It depends on the job. Sometimes it's sex. Sometimes it's other things."

"Give me her name. I can help get you out."

"It's no use. She has connections everywhere, including the police."

"I don't fuck with police. LA is full of crooked cops."

"That's why we always come back here." Christine informed him.

"Are you telling me the truth?"

"Yes."

"I'm gonna make a phone call, and if I find out you're lying to me you should be afraid, very, very afraid." Dom threatened. Christine gulped under his glare. The man was beyond intimidating when he wanted to be. It had been a side she had never witnessed before and wished she had not.

"I swear it's the truth." She vowed.

"Come with me." They went to a pay phone, which Dom used to call Jessie at the garage and run a profile on the Heidi woman Christine had told him about. Her story checked out. The woman had a history of police investigations that never panned out. It seemed she had an entire network of people at her fingertips, including Gabrielle. "Gaby's gonna pay for this. Why would some one do something like this? I knew she was a little excessive, but I had no idea she'd take things to this extreme."

"She's an ugly person who stepped on everyone around her to get where she is."

"She's gonna pay. You don't fuck with my family and get away with it. I got connections too."

"No, just let it go." Christine urged nervously. "You'll make it worse."

"This is so sick. You know that, right?"

"It's my life you don't have the right to butt in."

"Like you didn't in mine? You have no idea what you did! You broke up my family and now I need you to fix it. I need you to tell Letty I didn't cheat on her."

"Are you crazy? I'm not getting within a hundred feet of her. I'm not trying to die!"

"Do this, and I'll get you out."

"You can't."

"Yes, I can; and unlike Gabby I'll keep my word."

"Show me you can and I'll do it." She compromised disbelievingly.

"Let me make a few phone calls." Dom said taking out some more change from his pocket.

"Halo?" (Hello?) Ana answered from the other line.

"Ana?"

"Que quieres?" (What do you want?) She asked rudely.

"Hablar con Lute." (I want to speak to Lute.)

"Lute?"

"Si, pongamelo es urgente." (Yes, put him on the phone. It's important.)

"Halgo paso con el niño?" (Is something wrong with Alexus?) Ana asked anxiously.

"No, se trata de otra cosa." (No it's about something else.)

"Y porque piensas que yo haría algo así? Yo no tengo porque ayudarte." (And why would I do that? I have no reason to help you.)

"Ana por favor, si me hace este favor le puedo mostrar a Letty que no le fui infiel." (Ana please! If you do me this favor I can prove I wasn't unfaithful to Letty.)

"Hmm, no se si te creo." (I don't know if I believe you.)

"Ana yo nunca le ha mentido, y honre mi palabra cuando Leticia se embarazó." (I've never lied to you, and I kept my word about taking care of Letty when she got pregnant.)

"Él no está y no vuelve hasta las seis." (He's not here, and wont be returning until after six.)

"Sabe si todavia está en contacto con los hombres de los papeles?" (Do you know if he is still in contact with the man who arranged his immigration papers?)

"Creo que si." (I think so.)

"Bueno dile a él que me ponga en contacto." (Tell him to put me in contact with him.)

"Esta bien." (Ok, I'll let him know.) Ana said before hanging up. Dom turned back to Christine and took her by the arm.

"Come with me. We're going to go take your passport photo."

"My passport photo?"

"You're leaving the country."

"You can do that?"

"I know a few people."

"Wow, you're more incredible than I thought."

"Now, we had a deal."

"She can't touch me." Christine said fearfully.

"I can't promise she won't try, but I'll hold her back." Dom assured. They arranged to meet Letty at the apartment the couple once shared. When she arrived she did attempt to slap Christine again, but Dom was able to reach her hand before it made contact with the blonde's face.

"I'm good!" Letty insisted as Dom held her back.

"You can't hit her." He mediated.

"I'm good." Letty repeated taking a deep breath.

"I'm staying between you just in case." He told her casually.

"Letty I want to apologize." Christine began.

"Oh, you mean for trying to fuck my man?"

"Yes, I didn't mean to break up your family, it was just bad circumstance."

"Bitch what did you think was gonna happen?"

"I don't know. I wasn't exactly thinking of you."

"Dom move." Letty said attempting to push him away and wanting to beat Christine all over again.

"No, let her finish. It's kinda complicated." Christine told Letty the rest of her story, and Dom managed to calm his girl down with a beer.

"So how do I know you didn't pay her to say this shit?" Letty asked Dom looking him square in the eye.

"Because I didn't and I'm using Lute's guy to falsify her passport."

"That still doesn't explain your behavior."

"There is literally nothing I can do to get you to trust me, is there?" He asked angrily.

"What were you hiding? Huh? Because you were definitely hiding something." The young Latina interrogated.

"You wanna know?" He asked her furiously.

"Yeah I want to know!" Dom stormed into their bedroom and stalked back to the living area with a small black box.

"Here!" He said placing it in her hand.

"What is it?"

"Open it!" He yelled at her. She creaked the box open and found that inside it was the most peculiar ring she'd ever seen.

"It's a ring?"

"It's an engagement ring, because I was gonna fucking ask you to marry me but seeing as how my word isn't good enough, her word isn't good enough, no one's word is good enough..."

"What?" Letty had completely tuned out all the words that had come after engagement ring. It was like a bomb had gone off and her ears were deaf with a ringing sound. She accidentally dropped the box in her daze. Dom went to pick it up and stayed on one knee. "Oh my God." Letty breathed. The moment was not nearly as romantic as he had pictured it, but then again, his plans with Letty rarely resulted as he wished.

"I know you'd be an asshole and want to say no, but I was hoping you'd say yes seeing as it's tailored to you."

"Oh my God..." Letty murmured still in shock.

"It's a black diamond because I know you hate the flash of the regular ones, but the band has little ridges that look like car tires with tiny diamonds in it."

"Oh my God..." She squeaked out.

"It took a couple months to make, but it finally got here yesterday...so uh.."

"Oh my God..."

"Will you marry me?"

"Seriously?" She whispered.

"Nah I just thought it'd be funny." He teased.

"Well it's not."

"Are you gonna answer the question? My knee is starting to hurt."

"Are you sure?"

"Would I be asking if I weren't?"

"Why?"

"What do you mean, why?"

"I mean, why?"

"Because I love you, and I need you, and I can't live without you, and I want to trap you."

"You want to trap me?"

"Yeah, you're a knock out." He told her cheekily. Letty continued to stare at the ring in his hand. "Let answer the question."

"...yes", she finally confirmed still quite stunned.

"Yeah?" He asked almost shyly. Letty vigorously nodded her head and he slipped the ring on her finger.

"It's beautiful." She said as a tear rolled down her cheek, and he rose from the ground. Dom took her face in his hands and planted a soft kiss on her lips. "You really wanna get married?" She asked disbelievingly. Letty had never envisioned herself as someone's wife and often dismissed the subject, but having Dom propose was so different than she had ever imagined. It was completely surreal.

"I wanna have you forever." He murmured, and Letty crashed her lips on to his instantly. They kissed fervently until Christine awkwardly coughed from where she had been standing for the last ten minutes.

"I forgot she was there." Letty murmured when they pulled apart.

"Me too." He said looking into her eyes. "You're all I can see."

"I love you." Letty professed with a sniffle.

"Good to know." Dom smirked.

"Asshole." She said shoving his shoulder.

"Hey, I just gave you a ring and demonstrated my utter devotion to you."

"True" Letty said with a nod. "So what happens now?"

"She's staying here until Lute hooks us up with a fake passport. It may take a few days."

"She's not staying here." Letty refused.

"Let, she can't go back." The brunette turned to glare at the blond girl until she spoke, almost daring her to take Dom up on his proposition.

"I could go back, until it comes in. I'll pretend I was seeing a private client. It won't go down well, but Heidi will believe it. Just don't mention anything to Gabby or I'm screwed."

"And we wouldn't want that now, would we?" Letty feigned sweetness before turning to Dom and adopting a more authoritarian tone. "I like her plan better. You're done playing hero."

"I wasn't-"

"Let's go. You need to move my things." Letty interrupted him mid-sentence and walked out of the apartment. She could not stand being in the same room as Christine. Though she felt for the girl, she could not get rid of the urge to rip her face apart.

"I'll let myself out." Christine told Dom quietly. It had been difficult for her to watch on when the couple shared a tender moment. It was a reminder that she was nothing in comparison to the woman who had just left through the door.

"No I'll drop you off. She'll understand." Dom told Christine as they left the apartment.

"Thank you." She told him genuinely. He took her to the park he had found her in to avoid raising suspicion. They sat in silence momentarily before she spoke softly. "I hope one day to have what you have with her."

"Sabotaging other people's lives won't get you that."

"I know, but since I'm going to start over I won't need to." Christine attempted to smile as her words escaped her. She closed her eyes and hoped Dom would keep his word, or at least that he would succeed in freeing her before Heidi got a whiff of what was going on and possibly send her away, or worse kill her.

It took two weeks for Dom to send Christine off to Wales. He successfully set up a contact for her that he had made during one of their travels a few months before. She was officially out of their lives, and no longer a reminder of the turbulence she had caused between Dom and Letty.

"It's time for me to get that bitch." Letty told him as they sat in the parking lot outside the FUEL office building.

"Letty I already told you I was gonna take care of it."

"No, I want to face her first." She asserted getting out of the car.

"Fuck." Dom muttered. He knew Letty's confrontation with Gaby would not end well.

"Letty, what a pleasant surprise. Can I help you with something?" Gabby greeted without looking up from the file she had been reviewing.

"I think it's time you and I had a little chit chat. Don't you?"

"Why, whatever do you mean?"

"Cute, I'm just going to cut to the chase."

"I'm all ears."

"Whatever it is you're trying to do with Dom ends now."

"You mean establishing his career? I don't think he'd like that very much. Shouldn't he be here if we're making executive decisions about his life?"

"Honey, sweetie, dear", Letty began condescendingly. "I run his life."

"Darling, I run his career. You're just the girlfriend, not the wife nor the mistress."

"That's where you're wrong. I run that too. I could be the wife if I wanted to be. I'm the fiancee, querida." (sweetie) Letty said waving her diamond studded hand in Gabrielle's face. The woman looked at the engagement ring with a stunned expression on her face. "I suggest that you come to terms with that sooner rather than later because I'm done playing nice; and baby I promise you I play real dirty."

"Hmm, is that a threat?"

"No a threat would be, 'If you continue to fuck with my man I'm going to slit your throat'. Which of course is grounds for the authorities to intervene, not that it's something I'm not familiar with. Nonetheless, I'm just giving you a friendly suggestion. Back off because if you don't you won't have a client anymore that gives you the bulk of your paychecks. How much business has Dom given you? Four new clients? Hmm, I wonder what the press would say if someone happened to leak how much of a convincing vicious bitch you really are." Letty said with a cold smile.

"Noted." Gabrielle said bitterly.

"Good, as long as we understand each other." Letty said standing up and leaning over the woman's desk. "

"Oh and Gabby?"

"Yes?"

"The next time you send some slut to Dom's room to try to seduce him I will end life as you know it. And Incase you couldn't discern that for yourself, that indeed was a threat. We wouldn't want anything to happen to this pretty face, now would we?" Letty said slapping her fiercely.

"You bitch!" Gabby spat.

"That's just a taste of what you'll get. You wouldn't want to see me really angry." Letty turned on her heel and slammed Gabrielle's door shut. She found Dom standing in the hallway.

"Well the police aren't here so I'm guessing you killed her silently or you've gone soft."

"I've gone soft." Letty said with a shrug.

"I don't know how I feel about that, but if you excuse me I have business to take care of." Dom said kissing her cheek and making his way to Gabrielle's office.

"Dominic! You're here." Gabrielle noted with a nervous gulp.

"I only have one thing to say to you."

"And that is?" She said with a smile.

"Quit or you're fired."

"What?"

"Quit or you're fired."

"You're under-"

"Contract? Yeah, I know with the company. I'm not leaving the company. I love your bosses, but what you did was not only unprofessional it was cruel, and I fucking hate you for it."

"Dominic I-"

"It's simple Gabby. The choice is yours, but either way I refuse to work with you." Dom finalized and quickly made his way out of her office. He took Letty's hand and went to go pick up their son from Ana's apartment where he had been staying. When they arrived home they played jointly with Alexus in the living room. It was nice to be united once again. Having dealt with several loose ends had lifted a tremendous weight off their shoulders.

"Why are you smiling so much?" Letty asked Dom.

"We're gonna be like an official family now." He said watching Alexus run around.

"Dom a piece of paper isn't gonna change what was already there."

"Nah, it's different. You're officially mine. It's over for you." He told her. Letty let out a small snicker.

"No you didn't."

"Right buddy, you want Mami and Papi together forever?"

"Play together!" Alexus cheered. They chuckled at the boy as he absentmindedly made car noises on the floor.

"You got that right." Letty said smiling at her boys. She leaned over to peck Dom's lips, and placed her head on his shoulder. "I'm stuck with you now."
