Reighn took a deep breath and stepped out of her car, scanning the crowd quickly. She was dressed in the clothes she'd been wearing when she'd met the team, and now, she stood in front of her royal purple Skyline scanning the crowd for Puck. She had been surprised when he'd shown up at the garage, and she believed him when he'd said that it wasn't over.
"Chill girl, it's all good." Letty said as she passed the younger woman.
Reighn sighed and made her way over to Dom and Hector, but stopped in her tracks when she saw who they were arguing with. Puck stood there, his long white hair loose around his waist wearing his trademark leather pants and black net shirt. She narrowed her eyes carefully and made her way over, listening intently to what was going on.
"Where is she Toretto?"
"I told you, she doesn't want to talk to you."
Puck growled as Reighn came up behind him, placed one hand on her hip and cocked her head to the side, "Y'know Puck, I'm getting sick of this. Lay down chico."
Puck spun, eyes widening, "All right, five grand."
Dom's eyes widened, "You're going to settle this by racing?"
Reighn nodded, "It's time to show everyone what I can do. Five grand it is, but when you lose, not only do I get the cash, but you and the rest of Team Avalon are banned from racing in L.A."
"I'm not going to lose."
"Wishful thinking," Reighn said, rolling her eyes, "We race!"

Reighn revved the engine of her Skyline and shifted into second. Leon appeared at her window, his eyes widening as he watched her shift into third and the speedometer read 120, "Good luck."
"Imma need new tires."
Leon nodded and backed away as she shifted into fourth and her wheels spun in place, the smell of burnt rubber filling the air. Hector's arms came down, and Reighn let go of the break, shooting off at 180. She glanced behind her to see a livid Puck as he pressed his first NOS shot to catch up. Reighn grinned and shifted into fifth, the pointer moving to 200. She placed her foot to the floor and it moved up to 210 as she shot over the line. She pulled her foot off the pedal and hit the brake, pushing the pedal to the floor. The tires squealed as they stopped moving, smoke filling the air as the treads on her tires were burned off. She shifted from fifth to fourth, then third, and finally to second as she turned the now slowed car and headed back to the start.
She stepped out of the car and Vince hugged her before whistling sharply and moved over to examine her tires. Leon wrapped an arm around her shoulders in a half hug, "What'd she top out at?"
"210. But I'm gonna pay for it. I do it every time I race. I'm gonna be finding tiny problems for a couple weeks unless I have Jesse look her over."
"Oh, shit! We got cops! Cops! Cops! Go!"
Jesse's voice broke into their thoughts and they separated, Reighn diving into her Skyline and driving off as Leon climbed into Jesse's Jetta and took off since Jesse was in his Skyline with all the scanners.

Leon chanced a glance at the door as he lifted the half empty Corona bottle to his lips. Jesse was in a corner making out with a silicon blonde, Vince was wowing the ladies with the hunk of junk he called a guitar, Mia was up in her room doing homework for classes on monday, and Letty was playing the PS2 while Dom watched. Leon's fingers tingles as condensation rolled down the neck of the bottle and onto them, he turned around to head for his favorite chair in the corner, only to come face to face with a brunette with an enormous bust and skimpy clothing. She attached herself to him, purring things he didn't understand over the sounds she was making as she walked - interrupted furiously by hysteric giggles. Leon sat down in the chair and the woman situated herself on his lap. He craned his neck around to watch the door from his vantage point as it swung open and Reighn entered the house. She was once again dressed in his clothes - how she was he didn't know, unless she'd taken them with her to the races - but it was quite a turn on to see her in his clothes, the look screaming that she belonged to someone... That and she was wearing his favorite pair of jeans. Her eyes flicked around the room and landed on him and the brunette using him as a chair and a scowl crossed her features. Leon winced, sorry for the nameless woman in his lap and Reighn made her way through the room with a possessive look on her face. He didn't understand that either, they weren't a couple. Of course, anyone who saw her and knew him enough probably thought she was his, considering that she wore his clothes all the time instead of her own, even though she had long since taken care of the having no clothing issue. She stopped about three feet away, cocked her head to the side and placed a hand on her hip in her trademark style, raising an eyebrow at him. He shrugged, sending a silent plea at her through his eyes to get the bouncy woman off of him.
"Yo bitch."
Leon's eyebrows shot up at her language and the brunette's head shot around, "Can I help you?"
"Yeah, ya can," Reighn replied, scowl deepening, "You can get your filthy paws off my man."
Leon reveled at how that sounded inwardly and sighed in relief as the brunette stood, and groaned as she got into Reighn's face. He started worrying, and it wasn't for Reighn's health. "I don't see your name written on him."
Reighn moved one hand and lifted her purple shades up into her hair and fixed her glare on the woman, "You are?"
"Denise." She replied, "And you are?"
The disdain in her voice was apparent but all Reighn did was smirk, "Don't you have to work, Hollywood boulevard is missing a ho."
"Why you!" Denise aimed a slap at Reighn's face but the latter caught it mid-air and squeezed. "Ow! Let go!"
"Back. Off. My. Man." Reighn said fiercely as she let go of Denise's arm. The brunette held her wrist and walked off. Reighn's peircing stare turned to Leon, and he unwillingly flinched, but sighed in relief as her eyes softened. She moved forward and climbed into his lap, curling up and leaning her head on his shoulder. She gripped one of the straps of the basketball jersey he was wearing and whimpered softly.
"What happened Ray?" Leon asked softly, putting his beer down and wrapping both arms around her securely. "This about Puck?"
She nodded and Leon sighed, "It'll be all right babe. They didn't deserve you, you're too special."
She looked up at him and smiled softly, "You really know how to make a girl feel better."
Leon brushed a stray strand of hair out of her face. "Only you. C'mon, let's go tuck you into bed."
Reighn stood and Leon followed wrapping his arm around her and leading her to the staircase as she staggered along, emotionally drained. Neither of them saw Letty and Dom exchange a look knowingly.
~ * ~
Reighn flopped backwards onto Leon's - and her - bed with a sigh. A weight on the bed told her Leon had followed, and her assumption was confirmed as her leaned over her and removed her shades and placed them on the night table. He left her field of vision and removed her shoes and then straddled her waist as he pulled off the belt she was wearing, lifting her slightly to pull it out from under her. Leon unbuttoned the pants and slid the zipper down and then his weight lifted off of her as he gripped the bottoms of the jeans and pulled. She giggled as he grunted, hitting the floor with a thud. He stood and appeared over her again, pulling the covers up and over her. Reighn maneuvered her hands and pulled off her bra while leaving the tank on, letting it fall to the ground lifelessly. Leon pulled his shirt over his head and pulled off his jeans before crawling into bed beside her and pulling her into his arms. Reighn happily complied and wrapped her arms around him, allowing her eyes to flutter closed as she fell asleep.

Reighn stumbled down stairs the next morning with a hand on her head. She was wearing Leon's wifebeater and a pair of her own boxers, and had stopped long enough to put her bra back on before making a beeline for the kitchen. She opened the door to the fridge as Mia and Letty watched on amused, and poured herself a glass of orange juice. She plopped down into a chair and held her head for a moment.
"Was it really that bad chica?"
She looked up blearily at Letty, "Wha?"
"Ya know, Leon, you, disappearing last night in the middle of the party, upstairs?" Letty wiggled her eyebrows suggestively.
"Nothing happened Letty. I wasn't feeling too good and Leon was kind enough to take me upstairs, strip me to my tank and boxers and hold me. Not everything is about sex." Reighn replied with a cross tone.
Mia giggled slightly, "You're red Ray."
Letty peered at Reighn, "I do believe you're blushing Ray... Oh, my. Does this mean what I think it does? Our little Reighn is still a virgin?"
Reighn opened her mouth to retort, but it snapped shut again without a sound. Mia snickered, "Wait till Leon finds out!"
"You tell him and die Torreto." Reighn snapped angrily and crossed her arms over her chest.
Vince stumbled into the kitchen before Letty or Mia could reply and Letty winked at Reighn, "Heya V."
Vince grumbled something about pain killers and jumped slightly as a door slammed somewhere upstairs. All three women winced at the sound and watched as Jesse barreled into the room, followed by a laughing Dom and a red Leon. The girls exchanged a look and Reighn stood, walking over to Leon and wrapping her arms around the pissed man from behind, whispering soothing words into his ear. Letty walked over to Dom and situated herself in his arms before placing her hand over his mouth to silence his laughs. Jesse sat down, a hand over his heart as he watched Leon calm down.
Leon turned around and exchanged whispers with Reighn before bounding upstairs with a grin on his face.
"What'd you tell him Ray?"
Reighn turned to Letty, a pained expression on her face, "I told him that if he let Jesse live I'd let him fix my car today."
"Well, that's one way to prevent a murder, but are you sure you really want to do that?" Mia asked.
"No." Reighn replied with a wince, "But I won't have to pay for manual labor to get my car fixed."
"Hehehe," Letty snickered, "There's one way to put it."
Leon bounded back downstairs fully clothes, Reighn's keys in his hand. He dashed into the room and finished Reighn's orange juice for her and kissed her lips before dashing out the door. Reighn's eyes went wide, but she winced visibly as a screech was heard and her car roared off down the street.
"Oh, now I believe that there's nothing going on." Mia said, laughing.
Reighn turned red again, "Yah, well, I didn't think there was."
"Liar."
