Dom's P.O.V

Today. Today is the day that I am going home. I get to see my little sister again, I get to see my parents again, and I get to live life.

But, only for a few months and then I go back. But I have three months to live again.

My name is Dominic Toretto, I am a soldier in the army along with my two best mates, Vince Martin and Leon Eppes. We have been in the army for four years and have two more left. It's been hard, and we have lost many friends along the way, but we would always stick together.

And today we finally return home after two years to see our families again.

We are currently on our way to the Dominican Republic...

Letty's P.O.V

A week later and my brother and I are completely settled into our new home. Alex got his job at a garage about ten minutes walking distance from home, and I am picking up shifts all the time at the diner. I have gathered quite alot of money in the past week, and saved a little extra for myself. I have also become close friends with Eliza, the girl that I first met when going for my job at the diner.

It's been hard having to constantly do things for the family even since I turned ten, there is always the option of leaving but it's almost not an option. I would never leave my parents and especially Alex, I love them all too much to just leave.

So at the moment I am finally getting some relaxation with my parents and Alex and Eliza is here aswell. We are just enjoying a day at the beach, which is thankfully a two minute walk from home. My parents seem to finally be enjoying it here and if I'm being honest, I love this place.

"Hey Let, coming for a swim?" I heard my brother yell

"Yeah! Coming" I got up and ran into the water along with Alex and Eliza. I laughed as Alex jumped on my back and plunged us both underwater.

We all played around a bit before calming down.

"So Eliza, what family do you have here in the D.R?" Alex asked.

"Well, I actually live here with my grandparents" She replied.

"If you don't mind me asking, where are your parents?" I asked.

"Oh well, they left me when I was eight years old, dumped me with my Grandmother when she was babysitting me and never returned."

"Oh, I'm sorry to hear that" Alex said

"Yeah, sorry too"

"Na, it's all good, I love my grandparents and I couldn't thank the enough for what they have done for me" I smiled at the appreciation she had for her grandparents, it's not something you see everyday.

We all were silent for a good five minutes just taking in the say when I heard Eliza speak.

"Damn, who are they?" She said almost in appreciation. I looked over to who she was looking at and noticed a group of guys, five to be exact, all mucking around on the sand throwing a football.

"I dont, know" I said as we both watched them. As we were both staring at them, one of the guys turned around and looked straight at us, he was built like a tank and had a bald head, and was actually quite good looking. Eliza and I both looked away as he saw us. "Oh my god that so awkward" I whispered to her.

"Shutup, it's not a big deal, their hot guys, we're hot girls who are just looking at them" I laughed at her theory that basically explained the terms of 'checking someone out'.

"Who do you think they are?, I have never seen them before" Eliza whispered to me as we watched them again.

"I don't know either, maybe their just visiting family?"

"Hey girls quit drooling" Alex yelled at us.

"Piss off" I said before turning back around. I heard him laugh and say something under his breath so I turned around to face him again.

"What?"

"Well, I know who they are"

Eliza and I both fully turned out attention towards him. "You what!" She whisper-yelled.

"I said I know them, the scrawny one with the beanie works at the garage and he was telling me how his three best mates were coming back from the army for a few months, because this is their home, and his name is Jesse" He paused to look at the five men. "Although I don't know the tall dark one, he's never been spoken of, but from pictures I have seen around the garage I can tell you that Dom is the one that has a body the size of Mars, Leon is the one with the brown hair and average built body, and Vince is the one that looks scruffy and built quite large also." He finished as he walked back out of the water towards Mum and Dad.

'Who is that?" I asked myself as I again met eye contact with the one who is apparantly called Dom. We both smiled before I turned around and walked out of the water with Eliza back up to our parents.

Dom's P.O.V

I smiled as we pulled up to the familar driveway I get to call home. I stepped out of the car and breathed in the fresh air. I was so entranced that I didn't even see my sister sprinting towards me and jumping in my arms. I was thankful the car was their otherwise we both would have ended up on the ground.

"Dom" She whispered into my neck.

"Hey Mi"

"I'm so happy to see you"

"I'm glad to see you too Mi"

"Dom" I looked up as I heard my voice being called. I smiled even bigger when I saw it was my parents. I lowered Mia back to the ground and ran over to hug them.

"I've missed you both so much"

"We've missed you too bud, we've missed you too" My dad replied.

We eventually pulled away so as we could bring my things inside. I left the boys to their families and I grabbed their things aswell to take inside. In the last week of tour we met a younger boy who had also been in the army for quite a while, he had served three years and a very good soldier. He immediately became a very good friend of ours and he actually has family about an hour from here in the Dominican, so they have all come up here for the three months in a holiday house right on the beach near us.

Eventually everyone esle came into the house and got settled in. All the boys usually stay in the spare rooms at my place as their parents live about forty minutes away on a different beach, and seeing as we work and DT's garage it is easier to stay all together here.

Our house is two stories and upstairs their is the Master bedroom, obviously for my parents and then Mia's bedroom and my bedroom, but we also have a number of spare bedroom, and so Vince and Leon basically own a room here that has almost all of their belongings inside, and Ben will staying in his parents beach house that is about seven or eight houses down from our, and only slightly smaller.

So once everyone was settled in we all went back downstairs and out the back to have a big traditional family barbeque.

After half and hour I was finally found my parents and we went to go sit and talk about how everything is going.

"Son, tell us about everything that has happened these past two years." My parents probably seem like those parents that are rich and their son has to be perfect, have the perfect respectable girl and all of that stuff although they are actually quite the opposite. They never cared if I failed a subject when I was at school, they just told me to get better at it. They put everything so bluntly but they were never mad at me. Whenever I would do something so stupid that any normal parent would punish their kid for, they would just tell me to fix the mess, to not do it again and that I should just truly think about why that was stupid. They raised me to protect and care for the ones you love and always respect people. "Never disrespect anyone son, but never let anyone push you around' Was what they would always say to me.

"Alot when on actually mum, alot..."

...

The next day I had woken up at eleven in the morning, from obviously being so tired and so did Vince and Leon. So I decided to call Ben and tell him to come over and also Jesse. Jesse is one of our best mates and he works at the garage aswell although he is definitely not a soldier. He is a bit more scrawny and shy compared to the rest of us, although he is a strong kid with a lot of brains.

About ten minutes later we were all walking down the beach throwing a football lazily between eachother, just talking about our time away and what happened, and Jesse was also telling us about how everything was going at the garage and what stuff had been going on in his life. We stopped after a bit and were just mucking around, but I don't know why I did, but I turned around only to see two girls staring at all of us, and one of those pair of eyes were set on me, altough almost as soon as I turned around, they looked away. I laughed to myself before getting back to the game.

"Hey, Dom, I know that guy that's with those girls" Jesse said to me

"Who are they?" I asked, curiosity spiking.

"He's the new mechanic I hired at the garage, he always talks about his sister and I saw her one time, that her over there, the one with the black hair." I looked over again and really looked at her and my breath got caught in my throat. She was really beautiful, she had black wavy hair and olive skin. As I was taking her in she turned her head towards me with almost a questioning look on her face.

'Who is that?" I thought before she turned away and walked out of the water.
