Here is chapter six, I hope you enjoy :) Please follow and tell me what you think.

Dinner was in the oven and I was just finishing my homework when I heard his foot steps coming up from behind me. My whole body went cold and my heart started beating ten times faster then before. I could smell his breath from across the room, the stench of jinn mixed with beer is a sent I will never forget. It made my stomach twist with disgust and I knew what was coming. You'd think on my birthday I'd be left alone but no, today was like any other. My father drank the day away in the living room while I went to school and worked. Since my dad could barely get out of the house anymore I was forced to be the families soul provider. I'd been working for the last two years at a local flower stop just in town. The owner, Mary Hanson, was the sweetest lady that ever lived and I think she pitied me, hiring me even though I wasn't of age.

"Catherine." My father slurred as his hand caressed my arm. He leaned down and smelled my hair, kissing my forehead. "You are so beautiful." I held back tears as he pulled me against his chest. "Come with me." I'd learned a long time ago that it didn't matter weather I fought him or not, he'd still win. He always won. He led me upstairs and into his bedroom, sitting me down on the bed before he closed the door. The walls that I'd built up a long time ago prevented me from caring, isn't it sad when a horrible thing happens to you so much that you just expect it and don't try and defend your self against it.

"You look so much like her." My father cooed, sitting down next to me. He swept my hair back behind me ear and starting kissing my bare shoulder. "Lay down." He ordered in a low voice, I did as I was told and fell back against the bed. Closing my eyes.

My eyes snapped open and I sat up, casting a glance beside me I saw Dom lying on his stomach snoring softly. I carefully climbed out of bed and walked out the door onto the small patio. Dom had found an old, abandoned house and we decided to bunker down there for the night. Let the heat die down a little. When I stepped outside I felt the sticky Rio air cling to my skin. I ran my hands though my hair and took a deep breath, trying to calm down.

"Can't sleep?" The voice said from behind me, effectively scaring the shit out of me and making me spin around. Brian stood there with a shy smile on his face, looking sorry for sneaking up on me. He moved closer to me and leaned against one of the stone pillars.

"You're going to be an amazing father, Brian." I said suddenly but with complete sincerity. I don't know what possessed me to blurt it out like that but I felt it needed to be said. We stood in silence for a couple minutes before I decided it was time to have the conversation I had avoided since he popped back into my life. "Do you remember anything about him? Dad, I mean." I asked, biting my lip.
"No." Brian admitted, casting his glance down. "I mean, I remember a little bit but I think I blocked out most of those memories, you know?"

I paused, taking a deep breath. "You're lucky. Your minds able to block him out." Brian walked closer to me and leaned against the railing, narrowing his eyes. I could tell by the look on his face that he was in deep thought. "I hated you for so long, and it ate me alive. It took me years to realize that it wasn't your fault. You couldn't have know that he was...evil."

"If I would've known what he was doing..."

"You didn't." I cut him off, shaking my head softly. "I've been having nightmares and I just need to remember that part of my life is over. He's gone and I'm with people I love who would never hurt me."

"Do you want to talk about him?" Brian asked carefully, testing the waters. "It might help." He offered.

"What is there to talk about?" I scoffed shaking my head again, feeling the rage slowly take over. "The fact that I picked up every extra-curricular activity just to prolong going home? Well, that was until dad got fired and I had to get a job to pay the bills and keep his supply of beer stocked. Or do you want to talk about the nightmares that are so vivid I forget that I'm not there anymore? How about when he'd crawl into my bed at night and pretend I was mom." I laughed bitterly, wiping away the tears that had fallen against my will. "This isn't me." I stated. "I'm not a cryer. I don't cry."

I felt Brian wrap me in a hug and I relaxed into him, just letting myself go. "It's okay to cry." He whispered into my ear, brushing my hair back. I don't know how long we stayed like that but I couldn't seem to make my body move. I could feel a lot of the pain and anger I'd been keeping dissipating, like it was running off me. I felt myself being passed off to another person and I knew it was Dom, I opened my puffy eyes and he looked down at me. Taking a deep breath I recomposed myself, wiping my tears and straightening up. "We can't keep running Dom." Brian stated, glancing at a sleeping Mia. "We got to get out and we got to get out now."

Dom tightened his hold on me and nodded, pulling the data chip out of his pocket and holding it up. "You're right and here's how we're going to do it." He said, examining the chip. "We're going to use this, and do one last job. We're going to take all of Reyes money, every dime of it and disappear. Forever."

"New passports, new lives with no more looking over our shoulder. We're just going to buy our freedom." Brian nodded, smiling a bit at the idea.

"You realize we're talking about going up against the most powerful guy in all of Rio?" I asked with a smirk. Dom nodded and I looked between the two men. "Then we're going to need a team."

================================

The next morning after a restless night sleep Dom and Brian led Mia and I up to the roof of the building we'd crashed at. The view was beautiful, over looking most Rio. We had to be careful and lay low because there were people still looking for us but we figured we'd be safe up this high.

"Alright." Brian stated. "Lets run through the bases real quick." I leaned against the railing and crossed my arms, listening to him speak. "What do we got?"
Dom was next to me, both hands on the railing while looking out. "First we're going to need and chameleon." He said. "Someone who can blend in anywhere."

"Okay." Mia nodded. "What else?"
Dom paused, and thought about it before replying. "A fast talker." He stated, nodding his head. "Someone who can bullshit their way out of anything."

Brian smirked, looking at us. "I got that." He laughed.
Going over the bases in my head, I let out a breath. "This guys going to have a lot of surveillance." I reminded. "We're going to need someone who's good with circuits."

"And with those circuits, Reyes is going to have walls." Dom explained. "We need guys who can punch through those walls." I nodded, in agreement thinking what else we needed but Dom beat me there. "Utilities and weapons. Someone who ain't afraid to throw down. Someone to back up every position."

"Yeah, what else we need?" Brian questioned.

Dom turned around and faced us. "Most importantly, we're gonna need two precision drivers." He held up to fingers. "Guys that don't crack under pressure. Guys that never lose."

"You know we got that." Brian smirked with a laugh.

I scoffed and pushed off the railing. "Cocky much?" I commented. Mia laughed and grabbed my hand, pulling my towards the stairs. I sent the boys a small wave and a smirk, before pulling out my phone. Scrolling down my contacts until I found Han's name.

Thank you for reading, I love you all and please review and follow :)
