�You gonna stick by me?�

�Maybe�.�

�Am I really here?� I asked, finally looking up at Dom. �Are you sure this is really happening?�

He just looked back at me.

�I mean,� I went on, trying to explain, �you�re sure I�m not gonna wake up and be back at my mom�s house, trying to get away from whatever guy is hanging around at the moment?�

Dom hugged me close, his hands drifting towards my ass. �It�s real�promise,� he whispered against my face, and I could feel his lips brushing against my hair.

�So this is my life, huh?� I said, smiling. �With Dominic Toretto saying he loves me and that someday we�re gonna get married��

�Yep,� he said, grinning back at me. �This is your life, for as long as you want it. So�what d�you say, you gonna stick by me?�

�Mmmm,� I said, leaning into him more. �Lemme think about that��

Suddenly I was shrieking with laughter as Dom picked me up, threw me over his shoulder, and started jogging towards the car.
