Letty didn�t see Dom for a week after that because her aunt invited her to visit her house in Oregon.  She didn�t really want to go, but she figured it would be an easy escape from the garage and especially from Dom.  As she got off the plane, she scanned the crowds of people for her aunt or her aunt�s boyfriend.  She didn�t see either of them so she took a seat on an overstuffed couch to wait.  A few minutes later, she heard a voice behind her.

�Are you Leticia?�

�Who wants to know?� She snapped back.

�Well, if you are Leticia, then your aunt wants to know.�

Letty was getting annoyed with this guy, and she hadn�t even seen him yet.  She whirled around in her seat and took a good look at him.  �Who�re you?�

�Chase Woods.  I�m you�re aunt�s boyfriend�s son.  That is, if you are Leticia.�

�Stop calling my that.  It�s Letty.�

�Alright Letty.  I�ve been enlisted to retrieve you and your belongings, and take you safely to our quaint little farm.�

�How much they paying you?� she asked sarcastically.

�Twenty bucks.�

�I figured.�
They reached the house about 30 minutes after leaving the airport.  Her aunt had certainly done well.  She lived with her boyfriend and Chase on a sprawling 50-acre farm, with a beautiful three-story house sat high atop a hill over looking the fields.  As they pulled into the driveway, Letty�s aunt came running out the front door to greet them. 

�Leticia!� She cried as she enveloped Letty in her arms.

�Hey Aunt Joyce.�

Joyce stood back and brushed the hair out of Letty�s eyes.  �My, my, you�ve grown into such a beautiful young woman.  Well, we mustn�t stand out here all afternoon.  Come on inside dear.  I�ll have Chase show you to your room.�

The room was pretty nice.  A bit girly for Letty�s taste, but nice all the same.  Maybe it wouldn�t be so bad being here for a week.  She was out in the county, with her aunt.  She had a feeling it would be a great week.  She was sorely mistaken though, because she hadn�t taken one thing into consideration, Chase.
*Inside the Absence of fear
There is this hunger
This restlessness inside of me
And knows that you�re no stranger
You�re my gravity*
