| �It�s not like that Dom.� Brian defended himself. �You can shut the fuck up, no one was talking to you.� �Stop Dom.� �I can�t believe you would take the side of a cop, who lied about being a cop so he could get in your pants, over your own damn brother.� Mia looked like someone had slapped her. She hadn�t told Dom they had been together, so she could only come to one conclusion. She looked over at me standing in the doorway with a betrayed look. I knew I didn�t tell him, but she must have assumed I did. �I didn�t tell him Mia, I swear.� �No, she didn�t tell me. I overheard you and the cop here talking about it before we found out what he was. At the time it didn�t bother me so much, I mean besides the fact that you�re my sister, but now it just infuriates me.� He shot a death look at Brian. �Well how bout I make you even more mad?� She said. She took in a deep breath, and I knew what she was going to say. She had told me the night before. �I�m pregnant.� She looked poignantly at Brian and repeated herself. �I�m pregnant.� *Hold on Hold on to yourself You know that only time will tell* The garage exploded with the sound of Dom yelling. �You�re what?!?� He screamed. �How the fuck could you be so stupid?!?� Mia looked like she was going to cry, and believe me, she did, but for a moment she held it in, faced her seemingly unfeeling brother and spat in his face. Then she lifted her head up, and said. �Don�t you ever call me stupid Dominic Toretto, you know better.� Then she broke down. She ran to me and buried her face in my shoulder, which was hard because I�m smaller than her. I assisted her into the office, and sat her in the office chair. I came back to shut the door, and found the garage empty except for Dom who was standing still as stone, and Brian who was walking towards the office. �You�re not seeing her.� I told him. �Letty, I just want a minute.� �You can have a minute, tomorrow when she�s calmed down.� And with that, I shut the door in his face and returned to aid my bawling friend as she had once helped me, one night in Mexico that felt like it was years before. |
