Brian, Tej and I sat in police parking lot in a black van we had illegally acquired. We were waiting for Rome to get back. Tej programed an electric toy car with a video camera so hopefully once Rome got it into the evidence room we could check out the vault. Tej and I passed the time by playing paper, scissors, rock which I won by the way. Finally the door slid open and Rome climbed in, taking the seat next to me, grinning like an idiot.
"It's done." He said. "You see, I think I made better special agent then you ever did." Rome taunted with a laugh while looking at Brain who was just smirking.
Brian turned his head towards Rome and shook it. "Well, that depends on how you define special." He stated. I laughed and shook my head, rolling my eyes. Ignoring Brian and Rome as they started slapping each other, I looked towards the screen with Tej.
"Okay, come on now." Tej said, picking up the remote control for the toy car. I watched as Tej got the toy car out of the evidence box and started driving it around the small room. "Alright, come on."
"Dog, you still can't drive." Rome commented and I turned around and punched him in the shoulder, telling him to shut it. "Now I see why you're always getting into accidents." He teased ignoring my warning as Tej drove the toy car into the wall. "You can't even drive a remote control car, I mean this is crazy."
"I'm going to need you to shut up right now." Tej stated without turning around, his eyes still focused on the screen.
"I'm not going to shut up..." Rome shook his head and Brian and I shared a look and both turned to face him, giving in a 'shut up' look which he ignored once again. "Give me the remote dog. Go left, it looks like something right over to the left. What is that? What is that?"
We waited a few seconds before Tej smiled and leaned back in his seat. "Bingo." He nodded.
"What is that? A six by six?" Brian guessed, looking at the picture of vault the screen.
"Eight by twelve." Rome stated.
"Seven by twelve." Tej and I both corrected before he continued. "I figure with eighteen inch thick steel reinforced walls with an insulated copper cord to protect against a thermal lenz. A class three electronic lock with a sure fire grip from a tumbler and I bio-metric palm scanner. Ten tons of top of the line security."
"Do I want to know how you know all that?" Brian asked.
Tej turned his head towards Brian. "I had a life before you knew me O'Connor, lets just leave it at that, alright." He turned his attention back to the screen and sighed. "She is a beauty though, man."
"A beauty as in good?" Rome questioned, hopefully.
Tej smiled lightly. "Beauty as in she gonna to start of playing hard to get and no matter how much I caress her, no matter how much I love her in the end...She still ain't going to give up that ass."
"I, on the behalf of all the women in the world take offense to that." I stated, pulling out my phone. "I'm going to call Omar and Rico, tell them we're all set." They nodded as I dialed. Omar and Rico were successful in getting us into the police station surveillance. They called me and told me that it was a go so I helped Mia log into the system and we took our first look at one of our biggest obstacles. The team gathered around us I pointed towards the screen. "We're looking at four cameras." I stated.
"That's some high-end shit too." Han commented. "Marker-optics, hundred degree field of view, ten seconds oscillation."
"Yeah." Brian nodded. "That's a narrow window, man."
"Can't we just snap in a replace the image?" Gisele suggested, shrugging her boney shoulders.
Tej shook his head."It's hooked into a digital sink. They'd know we were in the system. The best we con do is peek."
"We're going to need some real fast cars to get threw this." Rome sighed, leaning on the table.
I scoffed. "Not just fast. We got a hard right and a hair pin." I stated. "We need something agile."
"You guys mock up a track." Dom stated, crossing. "Katie. Brain, lets go get some cars." I smirked and turned around, heading back to the small room Dom and I shared to change my clothes.
Down town Rio was the place to be if you knew anything about cars. Han had caught wind of a race that looked promising so we headed there first. Classic and imported cars everywhere, surrounded by racers and their scantily clad chasers.
From my spot in the back I scanned the crowd looking for any cars that fit the criteria we needed but didn't notice any yet. The charger came to a stop and I climbed out of the back, rounding the car to Dom. He looked over the crowd taking in the scene. That used to be his pre-race tradition before we had to leave L.A. I felt his hand come to rest on my hip after it wondered down my bare arm and across my lower back.
A few racer-chasers strolled past us with dresses that barley covered their asses. They looked at me and then Dom's hand on my hip and glared. I scoffed and rolled my eyes, leaning further into Dom just to piss them off more.
"Katie already pissed someone off." Dom laughed, looking over the top of the car at Brian. "Home, sweet home." I pulled away from Dom and slapped his arm. I heard the sound of Brian's laugh followed by Dom's throaty chuckle. He reached out and grabbed me, pulling me back to his side. He leaned down and kissed the side of my head. I rolled my eyes and started walking.
We glanced from engine to engine, car to car but nothing stood out. That was until Brian spotted one and walked towards it. "How about that?" He stated while admiring the blue car. "All motor, no tuning issues. I always wanted one of those."
"Held the record up town for three years running." A male voice called out, making his way through the crowd. "Damn bro...you got a lot of balls to bring your problems here Toretto." A tall, lanky man said, shaking his head. "Not to mention, a cop."
I saw Brian cringe but cover it nicely with a smile. "Yeah, we can keep that on the low."
"Word on the street is a lot of people are looking for you two. The chica's even got a few warrants." He smiled and looked between us. "What? You didn't think we'd recognize you?"
Dom smirked. "We were kind of counting on it." He nodded towards the blue car we wanted. "That little coupe may run the streets around here." Dom turned around and pointed at his car. "But that monster...has never seen a set of tail lights. Ever."
"Well, she's about too." The man smiled, looking past Dom to the charger. "Now that...will be a nice trophy." He said. "Car for car."
"Car for car?" Dom questioned, smirking.
The man nodded with a smirk. "You want it come and get it."
Famous last words.
The race went exactly as expected and we took home the car. We pulled into the warehouse after making sure we weren't followed. I heard laughing as I climbed out of Dom's charger and made my way over to Mia who was lounging on the couch with Gisele.
"Really?" Rome asked, still laughing. "Where'd you get that from? Papa smurf?" I shook my head and leaned against Mia's shoulder, closing my eyes briefly.
One by one everyone headed off to bed, but I remained on the couch. Finally I got up the strength I realized I was the only one left. Even Dom was gone.
I quickly peeked in on Brian and Mia, they were both sound asleep and I smiled. Brian's hand was casually placed on Mia's stomach and he had her hand over his. I was going to be an aunt and I couldn't be happier. Careful not to make any noise when I closed their door I walked back to the room Dom and I shared. When I got there Dom was sitting on the edge on the bed, he looked stressed and I let out a breath. I walked towards him and stood in front of him, kneeling down and taking his face in my hands.
He didn't say anything, he just closed his eyes and leaned into my touch. We stayed like that for a couple wonderful seconds, it wasn't an awkward silence it was nice. Dom finally opened his eyes and looked at me. "Do you think we can do this?" He asked.
I took a minute, thinking about it. Biting my lip I crawled onto his lap and pressed my forehead against him. "I think that with your leadership, we can do anything." It was the truth, I had all the faith in him and nothing would ever change that. I kissed him slowly, bringing my arms around to wrap around his neck. He immediately responded, gripping my hips and bringing them closer to his. I moaned against his lips and he tightened his hold.
I felt Dom stand up and I instinctively wrapped my legs around his waist. He turned us around and laid my down on the bed, crawling over top of me out lips never breaking contact. He ran his hands up and down my sides as our lips moved in sync. I can't explain how much I missed this. Missed us. I reluctantly pulled away for air and I felt his weight lift off my slightly, I opened my eyes and watched Dom strip off his shirt before returning to my lips.
His hands moved to the hem of my tank and pulled it over my head, his eyes were filled with lust and it made me want him all the more. Arching into him I heard him groan, his lips found my stomach and kissed the way down to the buttons of my jeans. The anticipation was killing me, my whole body was shaking and I just wanted him closer, if that was even possible. I felt his hands slowly unbutton my jeans and drag down my zipper.
I lifted my hips and allowed him to pull them off, leaving me in just my bra and matching underwear. A deep groan came from Dom's chest and it sent shivers up my spine.
Tonight was going to be a very long night.
The next day was devoted to trying to find a way to bypass the cameras at the police station. We assembled the security cameras around the warehouse, exactly were they'd be placed in the police under ground parking lot. Brian was up first, racing the car we'd gotten last night, around the warehouse trying his damnedest to avoid the cameras. He failed.
Climbing out of the car he looked at us. "How was that one?" He asked, I hopped off the stool I was sitting on and shook my head, walking down to meet him.
"Camera caught you." I said as I reached him.
"What?" Brian asked, his eyes widening. I nodded, biting my lip. "Man, I was milking the hell out of that thing too."
"We're going to need a faster car." Dom stated.
All day. That's how long we practiced, person after person trying to avoid the cameras but know no one could do it. Even I couldn't get past them, which frustrated me to no end. Gisele brushed past me and got into the car after Rome failed for the fourth time. In one try, Gisele managed to bypassed all the cameras, she smiled as she climbed out of the car.
"I think I'm in love." Han breathed, staring at Gisele. I shook my head and shoved him lightly.
