"Oh my god!" Aaliyah screamed again, pulling back to take a better look at the girl. " What the hell are you doing here ?"

" I was in town and I heard you were the shit, so I thought I'd come around and scope out the scene." The blonde answered.

"Excuse me for a sec," Letty interrupted, "but who the hell is she ?"

"Oh god, sorry guys. This is Kel, my friend from back in New Mexico. We used to run together." Aaliyah explained. "Kel, meet the team. This is Letty, the ugly one next to her is Vince, the scruffy one to the left is Leon, the cute one is Brian, and thats his fiancee Mia, this one is Jesse, my boy, and the Mr Clean over there is Dom."

"As in Dominic Toretto ?" Kel asked flabbergasted.

"The one and only."

"Nice to meet yah, Kel" Dom boomed as he shook her hand.

"Damn Aaliyah, are all your friends this hot" Vince asked, stepping forward. He reached out to ran a hand down Kel's arm "Hey baby...owww..Jesus Christ." Vince cried. Before VInce could touch her, Kel had grabbed his arm, ducked under it and twisted it up and behind his back sharply.

"Try that again and you'll lose something precious." Kel warned with a pointed glance to VInce's crotch, releasing Vince.

"I like her already." Dom laughed, " Hey lets head back to the fort and party it up. You definitly deserve it after kicking my ass, baby girl." Kel arched an eyebrow at Aaliyah.

"You beat Dom?" she asked incredulous.

"Yah I did. "

"Nice one."

"Thanks. He aint all that tough anyways." Aaliyah joked, receiving a playful swat from Dom.

"Lets party. Follow me there." Aaliyah directed to Kel. With that everyone roared out of the backlot, and onto the main roads.

**********************

"So how long you in town ?" Aaliyah asked, later that night at the house, party in full swing.

"Long as I want. Im thinking of settling down here for a while, especially now that I found you." Kel answered, taking a swig of her Corona as the girls sat on the counter talking in the kitchen.

"That would be cool, but what about the gang?"

"I left them a few monthes ago. They were getting into some heavy shit that I wasn't into." Aaliyah nodded, all to familiar with the goings on of her ex-team. They sat back in silence for a few minutes. "So, that Jesse of yours is kinda hot."

"He is. Isn't he. He's sweet too, and man is ever a Wizard in bed."

"What ?!!" Kel yelled, spitting her beer out. "Como again."

"I said he is a real wizard in the sac." Aaliyah laughed at the expression on her friend's face.

"Damn, girl." They sat in silence again. " So is he really that good ?"

"He is amazing...he....."

"Who's amazing ?" Jesse asked, walking into the kitchen.

"You"

"You been talking about me?"

"No worries man. I've been greating great reviews about you." Kel smirked."Wizard is it ?" Jesse smirked back and moved to stand between Aaliyah's legs, her arms wrapping around him.

"Wouldn't you like to know ?" Kel laughed.

"I like this one. He's got spunk."

"You have no idea." Jesse answered, sending them all into fits of laughter.

"So this is where the party is." Leon said, walking into the kitchen looking for some more beer.

"You better believe it."

"Kel is it ?" Leon asked stepping forward to shake her hand.

"And you're Leon, the scruffy one ?"

"Just Leon, despite popular belief. So how long you gonna be around for Kel ?"

"As long as Aaliyah will have me." she answered.

"Thats cool, fresh blood is always good."

"Hey this is a party right?" Kel asked, hopping down off the counter." What the hell we doing in here, let's dance"

"Good idea." Aaliyah said, jumping down following her into the living room. "You guys coming?" she asked Jesse and Leon.

*******************

The girls wove their way through the crowd to the living room, where the speakers blared. They started dancing, the music flowing through them.

"Oh sweet yes. You wanna ?" Kel asked Aaliyah as the opening rifts of "I love Rock and Roll" came on.

"I dunno, I haven't done this in forever."

"Come on." Kel urged. Aaliyah conceded, and Kel walked over and turned the music up. The girls started dancing, grinding their hips to the beat. Everyone stopped to watch them. They were putting Coyote Ugly to shame with their moves. The gyrated flawlessly, hips swiveling, and turning like their was no tomorow. They walked forward and grabbed Jesse and Leon by their shirts, pulling them back with them. The guys stood there, not knowing what to do, as the girls danced around them.

"Dance, its not so hard." Aaliyah whispered to Jesse as she wrapped his hands around her waist as she ground back against him.

"Come on, let's see what your made off." Kel teased Leon as she spun around him, dropping down suddenly then coming back up very slowly and sudductively, grinding her hips against him. Leon grabbed her by the waist, and got right into the dance with her. The two couples were making a quite a scene, and everyone cheered when they were done. The girls bowed and then turned and bowed to the Jesse and Vince, who clapped at them. More music came on and everyone got back to partying.

Dom came sauntering up to them, as they sat, resting on the couch.

"Damn, didn't know you had it in you."

"Thanks, call it a perk after all the after-parties I have been to. It's something you pick up." Dom perched on the arm of the couch next to Kel.

"So you gonna show me some of your moves ?" He asked smirking.

"Nope." Kel stated flatly, taking a drink from the beer bottle in Leon's hand. Dom stood for a moment, not sure what to do, he had never been shot down before. Aaliyah just giggled.

"Ouch, damn Dom, that's two loses in one night. You're slipping."

"Hey, I am not slipping." Dom defended himself.

"We know Dom, I'm just messing with yah." Aaliyah consoled, rolling her eyes behind his head.

The party went on all night. Aaliyah and Kel lost count of how many beers they had had. People danced, and drank the night away.

*****************

Morning light filtered in through the curtains, causing Kel to stir in bed. She sat up, her head pounding with the makings of a bad hangover. She turned her head to crack her neck and that's when she noticed the sleeping person beside.

"Oh shit." she said before clamping a hand on her mouth. Hoping he didn't hear her and would wake up. No such luck. His eyelids fluttered open.

"Mornin babe."

Oh shit.

Chapter 10: Hangover Hell

"Damn it all to fuck !" Kel yelled a little too loud.

"Jesus, chill out ." Jesse said, beside her, wincing from the makings of his own hangover.

"What the hell happened last night ?" Kel was beginning to freak out.

"I have no idea. I don't remember a damn thing. Please stop yelling." he groaned. Kel opened her mouth again but was interrupted by a groan from the floor at the end of the bed.

"Who with the what now ?"Aaliyah asked, eyes barely opened, as she pulled herself up to a sitting postion.

"What the hell are you doing in here ?" Kel asked, getting more confused by the second.

"I dunno. Is that .....Dom?"

"Yah, its me." he said from the other side of Kel, his voice rumbling, causing them all to hold their heads.

"Dom, can it, you're killing me here." Leon moaned from the end of the bed, popping his head up, scaring the crap out of Kel, who screamed.

"What the fuck is going on in here ?" Vince questioned, bursting through the door.

"Oh great. Just fucking great." Kel said, flopping back on the bed.

"Dom ? Kel?.Jesse ? Aaliyah...Leon ? Someone fill me in please." Vince asked, completely lost.

"Your guess is as good as ours."

"Vince, what's wrong ?" Letty asked, popping into the room. Her eyes immediately falling on the lounging form of Dom beside Kel. Her face turned hard, and she whirled out of the room stomping down the stairs.

"Oh shit." Dom said, jumping out of bed, making everyone shield their eyes with their hands, not wanting to get to know Dom that well, except the girls who opened their fingers into a 'v' shape to get a little peak. "What the hell are you doing that for ?" He looked down, "Oh yeah..hey wait..I'm covered, I got pants on. "

"Huh ?! But I thought we..." Kel trailed off as she peaked under the covers. "Oh thank God, Im dressed too."

"Well, dont sound so damn pleased about." Dom said slightly hurt, then he remembered Letty and went running out the door after her.

"So..ummm, what now ?" Leon asked the obvious question, trying to hide his obvious relief that nothing had happened.

"I say we go downstairs and do damage control." Aailyah said, stretching as she stood, pulling everyone up with her.

**********************

"Ok, who's bright idea was this ?" Aaliyah complained as they spent all morning cleaning up the house. She was ignored, Jesse was off in A.D.D. land, which Aaliyah was pretty sure was selective. Leon and Kel were cleaning the kitchen and were out of range.

"So when you throw a party, you really party, eh ?" Kel joked as she bent over to pick up trash all over the kitchen floor.

"You could say that. But your one to talk, Miss ' I'm all hot and shit ' with the dancing last night." Leon answered, admiring his view from behind her, cocking his head to one side.

"What do you think ?" Kel asked, turning her head to see him, still bent over.

"Excuse me ?" Leon choked out.

"I meant about the floor, dumbass. But while your looking, how's my ass?" Kel grinned, standing up

"It's fine..I mean good.. I mean the floor..not that your ass isnt...oh hell !" Leon stuttered, turning red. Kel just laughed him off, and made a move towards the living room, causing napkins to fall off the counter. Leon shook his head as she left and bent over to pick up the fallen napkins.

"Woo hoo." Kel whistled as she came back in the kitchen. She reached out and pinched his ass, as she grabbed a cloth and left the kitchen before he could say anything.

********************

Meanwhile, out in the garage.

"Letty, please nothing happened."

"Yah right nothing happened. I saw you Dom." Letty yelled.

"It wasn't what it looked like. I swear, ask Aaliyah or Jesse or Leon, they were all there too."

"Whatever Dom. But I saw you with her last night. You would have if you could have, but she shot you down. You haven't changed."

"Letty..I have, I swear let me prove it to you." Dom begged.

"Oh but you did prove it. You proved what an asshole you are, and I'm not taking it anymore. I am sick of the excuses, sick of it. We are over. Finito. Not a timeout but a gameover. "Letty said, crossing her arms over her chest.

"Letty don't do this. I need you. I love you"

"If you needed me, and loved me, I would have been enough, but obviously I wasn't. And I don't deserve it. I may not be much, but I deserve more than you." She glared at him, turned around and walked out, running smack into someone.

"Who the hell ?"

"Vince man, you wanna go for a ride ?"

"Sure." They roared off, leaving Dom standing defeated in the driveway.

**************************

Leon, Jesse, Aaliyah and Kel all lounged on the couch, piled against eachother.

"So, now what ?" Leon asked, moving to adjust his arm causing everyone to groan in response.

"Now we all get up and shower. We stink. I gotta go, I have someone I have to meet up with." Kel said, standing up, reaching out to pull Aaliyah up with her.

"Who you gotta see?" Leon asked.

"Oh just an old friend of mine."

"Do I know him ?" Aaliyah asked, pulling Jesse up.

"Maybe, his name is Johnny..I think his last name is .....ummmmmm...Tran. Yah that's his name." Kel said. Everyone deadpanned.

"You're kidding right ?" Leon asked in utter disbelief.

"No. Why ?" she asked, confused by their reactions.

"He's dead, been dead for quite a while."

"Oh" she answered rather quiet. "Well that blows, oh well, I guess I don't owe that money then" she joked, her smile returning. "So now what ?"

"Now we act our age. Let's hit the beach." Everyone cheered in response.

They ran around grabbing their gear and were about to head out, when a lightening crack, and thunder boom, shook the house, plunging it in darkness.

"Damn it " they yelled at the same time.

"Ideas anybody ?"

"Poker" Aaliyah suggested.

"Strip poker", added Leon.

"Ok , Im in. You guys get the cards, we'll get the Coronas"

"What you guys up to ?" Dom asked, coming in the door soaking wet.

"We're gonna play some strip poker, you in ?"

"Hell yah, sounds great."

"What's great ?" Letty asked, entering joined by Vince, Mia, and Brian

"We're gonna play strip poker?" Aaliyah explained.

"Aight, party time." Letty cheered, throwing a dirty look at Dom, and an arched eyebrow at Leon. Mia and Brian quickly headed up the stairs, not interested. Damn love, we wanted to see Brian without his top again.

Uh Oh. Poker, stripping, drinking. sexual frustration. jealousy, desire. relationships This should get interesting.

Chapter 11: So who's Bluffing Now ?

"Alright, I call. Show em' if you got em." Kel cheered, laying her cards down.

"Damn it. Not again." Vince groaned, throwing his cards down. "Stupid not flush"

"Ohh..don't cry" Aaliyah giggled laying out her three of a kind in fives.

"Oh man" Leon said showing his pair.

"Oh, beat this," Jesse cheered laying out his three of kind in queens.

"Ok," Kel laughed, revealing her cards, four of a kind, aces. "Alright kiddies, strip." Everyone groaned. Dom lost his pants leaving him in boxers and wifebeater. Vince was down to his boxers and socks, while Jesse and Leon lounged in their pants. Aaliyah laughed as she flung her jeans at Kel,leaving her sitting in her shirt, bra and underwear.

"I'm gonna kick your ass," Letty growled, taking off her shirt.

"Ok, Letty you deal, while I get us another round" Kel said heading towards the kitchen.

"I'll help you" Leon said, jumping up to help her.

*****************************

"So you having fun ?" Leon asked filling a bowl with chips, as she grabbed the beers from the fridge.

"Oh yeah, its just getting good. I almost got Dom naked." she giggled.

"Is that what you want ? See Dom naked ?" Leon asked trying to hide his disappointment.

"Hell yah." He quirked an eyebrow at her. "No, not like that. I just want to kick his cocky ass. There is no way I could do it in the races so I figure I'll do it this way." Leon nodded to her. "And hey, if I get a peak at anyone else, well that's just a bonus" she winked at him , grabbing the bottles by the neck and headed out.

*****************************

"No way" Letty cried, spitting her beer out. Everyone was now in the living, playing a drunken version of truth or dare.

"Ok, Aaliyah your turn. Truth or Dare ?"

"Dare" she giggled.

"Kiss Kel"

"No way" they both cried.

"Come on, rules are rules."

"Fine" she conceded and winked at Kel, who just sat there very confused. She leaned over and put her hand over Kel's mouth, and then kissed the back of her hand.

"No fair" Vince cried.

"Alright Letty your turn."

"Aight truth"

"hmmm.. do you like anyone currently ?" Kel questioned before realizing what she had said.

"You could say that" she grinned like a fox in the hen house. "And it aint Dom."

"Hey that's ok, I like someone else too." He said to everyone's surprise.

"who ??"

"You don't know her." The girls all rolled their eyes at that.

"Leon your up......"

A few hours later, everyone was passed out in the living room. Letty was splayed against Vince on the couch, while Dom leaned up against the end of the couch. Aaliyah was asleep against Jesse laying between his legs. Leon laid out on his back and was snoring softly while Kel slept with her head on his stomache, his hand stroking her hair absently. Brian and Mia came downstairs to get some food, and saw them all asleep. They shook their heads and covered them with blankets before heading back upstairs.

********************************

The wedding day was now here, and everyone was running around like madmen. The guys ran around adjusting suits, knotting ties, and clipping cuff links, while the girls were in Mia's room, primping Mia.

"Oh my god, you look amazing " Aaliyah gasped as Mia twirled in dress in front of the mirror.

"You think?" she asked, smoothing out her skirt.

"You are the most beautiful bride ever." Kel said, fluffing Mia's skirt.

"Mia....half an hour hun...girls our limos here" Brian yelled up the stairs.

"Ok, we'll see yah there girl." Letty smiled, hugging her, pulling the other girls out with her.

"Hurry it up already!" Dom urged as he came into the room.

Mia...god you look beautiful. I know Mom and Dad are smiling now, wishing they were here."

"Oh Dom," he pulled her into a tight hug. A honk outside broke the moment.

"Hey, thats our ride. Let's go. You ready ?" She nodded and they headed outside to the waiting limo.

*************************

The wedding march sounded and Mia began her way down the aisle, being escorted by Dom. Brian smiled from the front, next to Leon, Vince and Jesse, all looking very hot in their black suits. Dom took his spot next Leon and nodded for the Minister to begin. Mia handed her flowers to Letty as she took Brians hand. Aaliyah wiped tears from her eyes as she stood next to Letty and Kel.

"Dearly beloved, we are gathered here today, for the union of these two in holy matrimony...."

Brian slipped the plain platinum band on Mia's finger.

"Now Mia repeat after me .." she did as she slipped the matching ring on Brian's finger. Dom wiped a stray tear that had run down his cheek.

"Now, if anyone as any objections as to why these two people should not be married, let them speak now or forever hold their peace" The room was quiet for a few moments, and the Minister opened his mouth to speak when the doors flew open.

"I object !"

Who the fuck ??

Chapter 12 : Objections

"I object !" Everyone turned to see who was crashing the wedding.

"Who the hell are you ?" Vince growled angrily. He was flipped off by the intruder.

"This is the Toretto party right ?"

"Yah it is." Mia said quietly, clutching at Brian's hand.

"Oh thank god, I almost thought I crashed the wrong wedding again."

"Again ?" Leon questioned the girl standing in the door.

"Yes, again, long story. Anyways, I object to this wedding. I love Dom and he can't marry someone else." she stated, striding up the aisle, confidently, and slightly out of breath. "Hold on, a sec." She said seeing Dom off to the side and not beside Mia. " What the hell is going on ?":

"I was about to ask the same thing." Dom boomed, stepping in front of the flustered girl.

"But, I thought you were getting married." she said, shaking her head confused.

"No, my sister is, Mia Torreto." He explained, arms crossed against his chest, temper flaring.

"Oh my god. I am so sorry" she started " I thought Dom was. God I'm stupid. Please continue, I'll just wait in the back." she said heading to the back.

"Please continue." Dom nodded at the Minister, who stood back in shock.

"Yes certainly. Where was I ? Oh yes ! By the power invested in me, by the state of California, I know pronounce you man and wife. You may kiss the bride" he said closing his little black Bible, nodding to Brian.

"Yeah !!!!!!!!" Everyone cheered as Brian lifted Mia's veil, and kissed her.

"May I present, Mr and Mrs Brian O' Conner" the minister announced as Mia and Brian walked down the aisle to their limo that would take them to their reception. Everyone followed them out, Dom glaring at the girl standing in the back.

*******************

The reception was in full swing. The restaurant was covered in bright crepe paper, and wild flowers, and filled with people. 'Cha Cha Cha',was the same restaurant Mia and Brian had went to for their first date, and only the best place for the reception.. It was a beautiful, warm, clear night. A few tables were in the corners, with chairs scattered around the room, but most of the room was converted into a dance floor. People danced everywhere to the hip hop, salsa, rap, and house mix songs. The guys had lost their jackets and ties, and had unbuttoned the top few buttons of their white shirts. The girl remained in their bridesmaid dresses, all were red silk and floor length. They had thin spaghetti staps, and near thigh high slits up the sides, the and dangerously low cut backs with a thin tie across the back, the silk clung to the girls curves. Mia had changed out of her wedding dress and into a matching bridesmaid dress in white.

Brian pulled Mia closer to him, resting her head on his shoulder as they danced to 'I Swear' by 'All for One'. They swayed in perfect rhythm together oblvious to everyone else. Jesse pulled Aaliyah onto the dance floor, resting his arms around her waist. She smiled up at him, winking over her shoulder to Kel, as they turned, she saw Leon watching Kel and gave him a pointed nod in Kel's direction with a raised eyebrow. Leon caught her drift and walked up to Kel.

"You wanna dance?" He asked holding out his hand, which she took and followed him out onto the floor. She rested her hands on his neck, pulling him closer to her. Leon tightened his grip on her waist as they swayed. Letty leaned against the wall sipping at her Corona watching Leon and Kel dance sighing loudly. Dom noticed and made a move to go to her, but he was beaten by Vince, who took the bottle out of Letty's hand and pulled her onto the dance floor.

The song ended, and a fast beat song started, everyone began grinding to the beat. Even Dom got into the dancing, resting his hands on Kel's hips as she danced in front of him with her back to him. He felt someone brush a hand along his shoulders and turned to see who it was. Mystery girl winked at him as she walked away and headed for the bar, being trailed by a drooling Vince. Dom shook his head and got back to dancing. The dance floor cleared as the opening beat of 'Bootylicious' by Destiny's Child started. Aaliyah and Kel started their sultry dance to the song, quickly joined by Letty and Mia. Dom, Leon, Jesse, and Brian stood back, slack jawed, watching the girl grind, very practiced and synchronized to the beat. They twirled slowly, grinding their hips down, and getting back up quickly. They ran their hands through their hair, gyrating to the music. The guys stood back watching,very impressed by the show the girls were puting on. Britney Spears and Destiny's Child had nothing on their girls.

The song changed into 'Run DMC', and the girls strutted towards the guys, hips swinging. They continued their nsynch dancing, dipping, grinding twirling around the guys, before walking away from them, turning their heads to face them, with a smug look on their faces, and slapping their butts with their hand at them. Leon and Jesse turned to eachother and nodded at their silent conversation, before walking out in front of the girls and started a dance of their own. Dom and Brian stood still for only a moment, before joining them, dancing flawlessly. The guys walked back to their side turning back and slapping their butts at them. The challenge was on.

Aaliyah walked out in front of them, and began to break dance, dropping down in to the splits before getting back up, grinding her hips the entire time. Dom shook his head, walking out into the circle they had formed, and flipped forwards and did a helicopter spin, and some Michael Jackson style splits of his own. He walked back to the guys getting claps from them. Letty walked out and did her own dance that could have outdone J-Lo anyday, slapping hands with the girls on her way back. Brian stepped out and showed everyone that a white boy could dance. Mia walked out after him and did her best Britney impression, shocking them all, especially Dom. Kel and Aaliyah walked out and did perfect Janet Jackson moves together, followed by Letty and Mia who flawlessly copied the moves. Not to be outdone the guys joined them. They danced together amazingly, grinding and bumping, twirling and bending to the beat. The guys dipped the girls back as the song ended, getting claps from the crowd that had formed around the

**********************

The girls crowded around in a bunch as Mia tossed her bouquet. Everyone lunged forward, but Kel was the one who caught it. Brian flung Mia's garter belt at that guys, who all rushed forward, but it landed in Leon's hand. The last song came on, and Leon twirled the garter around his finger at Kel smirking, she walked over to him and pulled him on the dance floor. Dom once again made a move towards Letty but was once again cut off, this time by mystery girl, who wrapped her arms around his neck and began to dance with him. Dom gave in and danced with her.

"So who are you?" he asked after a few moments of silence.

"You don't remember me?" she asked in disbelief. He took a closer look, she had long brown hair with subtle red highlights, brown-green eyes, and a shapely figure. Nothing rang a bell in Dom's head, he sighed.

"Should I?" he asked, giving up.

"Well I should hope so. We were together a couple of years ago." she stated calmly.

"Oh yah ?!" still confused, he had slept with a lot of girls over the years."So what's your name?", hoping to get a clue.

"I go by Cat. Cat Tran to be exact. I believe you knew my brother, Johnny."

"Oh shit" Dom thought, blinking at her in disbelief. It was Johnny's sister, the one he had slept with oh so long ago. The one that started the entire problem with Johnny. "I remember you now" he choaked out.

"I thought you would" she smiled at him.

"I think I need a drink," Dom said, releasing her and headed for the bar.

*****************

"Bye !!! See yah!" Mia yelled to everyone as she stepped into Brian's car being pelted by rice. They roared away, to his apartment for their honeymoon,cans clinking behind the car. Everyone headed back into the restaurant, not ready to quit partying yet. It was well after four AM before everyone had finally cleared out, and the tired team headed back to the fort.

********************

Noon came all too soon for the team as they opened their eyes in their respective rooms.

"Morning babe" Jesse said to Aaliyah kissing her, pulling her close and closing his eyes again.

Kel stretched out in her bed, and recoiled when she hit someone. "Leon ?" she asked the sheet clad body next to her.

"Yah, what's up?" He asked sitting up, wiping the sleep from his eyes, looking over and saw her laying next to him. He peered beneath the blanket "Oh "

Dom rolled over, wrapping his massive arm around the girl next to him. "Mmm..Letty" he mumbled into her hair.

"Who's Letty ?" she asked. Dom woke up instantly.

Vince sat up and scratched his head, swinging his legs over the edge of the bed. Letty sat up stretching, swinging her legs over the edge of the bed.

"Oh my head!" she said rubbing at the sensitve bump on the top of her head.

"Oh my back!" he moaned.gingerly touching the red, raw scratches that were raked down his back.

They both turned around upon hearing another voice in the room, other than their own. Finally seeing eachother.

"Oh shit!" rang out in the houses as five voices yelled it simultaneously from their different rooms.

Chapter 13 : Take it all back

"Oh shit !" Letty flopped back onto the bed, wrapping the blanket tightly around her.

"So yah.." Vince said wrapping the sheet around his waist, looking everywhere but at Letty.

"Oh for Christ sakes, we're adults" Letty moaned, slapping her forhead.

"Yah your right, so get up and go to your room."

"Uh no, you go."

"No you"

"No you"

"Oh for fuck sake " They both sat on the bed, suddenly very interested in their hands. The situation in the next room wasn't much better.

"What's the matter ?" Cat asked, sitting up.

"I fucked up." Dom said, holding his head in his hands.

"What do you mean? Don't you want me?" she asked very confused.

"No I don't" Her face fell, "that's not what I meant. Yes I did want you but not anymore. I love Letty and I was trying to show her that I could go without trying to get in every girl's pants. And you come along, and boom. Here we are. She's right I don't deserve her" Dom sighed, completely drained.

"Well she's stupid not to want you. " she said taking his hands in hers "It's her who doesn't deserve you. Well baby, I'd love to stay and chat, but I got stuff I have to deal with." she said, kissing his head,and standing. "My brother left a big mess" ,with that she grabbed her clothes and flounced out the room.

"Just great, just fucking great." Dom said, flopping back on the bed. And in the room across the hall things were, well awkard.

"So I guess we.." Leon started

"yah" Kel said, cutting him off.

"Do you regret it ?" Leon asked, bracing himself for the fury she would unleash on him.

"You know what? I don't. I'm actually kinda glad it happened this way. I mean, we totally had this vibe thing going on, and well this makes it easier. Yah know ?" she asked, eyebrow raised.

"Your right, I just wish I could remember. You know, know if I was any good ?!" he shrugged.

"Well there is one way to find out." she smirked.

"Oh yah, whats that?" he shook his head all innocent and confused.

"We could try again" she smiled devishly at him.

"You got a point there" he smiled back at her, leaning down to kiss her.

"Hell yah" she pulled him down to her, and kissed him hungrily.

*********************

Cat stood outside her car, in front of the house, talking on her cell phone.

"Yah she's here. Yes of course I had him. I understand. I'll do it, not a problem. Blood is blood. No one fucks with the Trans and gets away with it."

Oh fuck

**********************

The next week found everybody in and out of the garage working on their cars, hoping to get a second chance at next month's Race Wars. Mia still tending the restaurant with the help of one of the girls rotating in and out each day. Even Cat came by everyday.The week was pretty quiet, life had returned to normal, like it was before all the truck heisting began. It was a pretty quiet afternoon, so the guys had headed over to Harry's to talk parts leaving the girls to themselves. Letty still not to comfortable with Cat and the situation with Dom, went to help Mia in the restaurant. Kel was in the back, looking over some designs Jesse had come up with. Aaliyah was cleaning the paint off her hands from the car she had just detailed for Hector when Cat came up behind her.

"So, what's your story?" she asked, crooking her head to the side

"Excuse me?" Aaliyah said pushing past her.

"Well, why are you here? Everyone here has a story, what's yours?" she persisted rather snottily.

"That's really none of your business" she shot back.

"Oh what, you afraid Im gonna go run and tell someone? Someone like, Detective Matthews ?"

The blood drained from Aaliyah's face.

"Just what the hell are you saying?" Aaliyah demanded, anger rising.

"Oh nothing. Just making sure you don't screw with me or my thing with Dom" she said before skipping off to the back office, leaving Aaliyah standing there.

"Hey what yah up to?" she asked poking her head in the office.

"Oh nothing much, just looking over the schematics for the rebuild of the Charger" she said turning back to the computer.

"Oh thats good. So how are things with you and Leon?"

"How do you know about that?" Kel asked, she hadn't told anybody yet, not even Aaliyah.

"Oh I know lots of things about everyone" she said the smile fading, "especially how you owed my brother money. " Kel's face fell. "Yah I know about that. And yes you still owe the money, so I think you should pay up, before something should happen to you or your friends" She said glaring at her.

"Are you threatening me?" Kel said, arms crossed defensively across her chest.

"No, call it a warning, or a promise" Cat said, eyebrow raised before she turned and left.

"Oh shit" Kel swore, kicking the desk.

"What's wrong?" Aaliyah asked, seeing her friend freaking in the office.

"That chick, Cat. She just threatened me." Kel slumped into the chair

"You too? We gotta tell Dom or someone" Aaliyah said, wrapping an arm around her friend

"Yah, he'll take care of it" she said agreeing, they both had their backs turned to the door and didn't see Cat come back in the office.

"Oh hunny, I don't think that's gonna happen" Cat sneered. The girls turned around when they heard the click of a gun. Cat had a handgun pointed at their heads, her finger on the trigger, safety off.

"Cat what are you doing?" Aaliyah asked, her voice shaking.

"Getting it back for the Trans. Gotta hurt Dom like he hurt us." Anger emenated like waves off her body. "Now get up, we're going for a ride"

"I don't think so" Aaliyah stood, attitude returning. She had unintentionally averted attention off of Kel, who was as quietly as possible switching programs on the computer.

"But I do" Cat sneered, before backhanding Aaliyah across the face with the gun.

"Fuck" Aaliyah jumped back, bringing a hand to her face, looking down and seeing the blood on her hand.

"Now, get the fuck up and let's go. I mean now" she yelled pointing the gun at their heads again.

"Alright chill, we're going" Aaliyah said pulling Kel up with her. The walked in front of Cat out to her car.

"Hold on" Cat said, stopping them, grabbing a plastic cord ties out of her purse. She quickly bound their hands, and then guided them into her car. She pulled down her road, before grabbing her cell phone.

"Yah I got them. Yup I got it covered. Toretto is gonna hurt for them"

****************

Dom, Leon, Jesse, Vince, and Brian pulled into the garage.

"Baby girl ! Kel !! Get your cute asses out here !" Dom yelled into the garage, getting no response.

"Aaliyah, yah in here?" Jesse shouted, looking around the dark garage. "No sign of her" he said to Dom, who stood back confused.

"Kel" Leon called out, heading into the office. "Oh shit !! Guys get in here " He screamed. They all rushed in crowding the tiny office.

"What's up?" Dom asked, getting worried.

"Look at the computer " Leon said, pointing a finger at the computer screen. Jesse read it out to them all.

"Cat Tran is after you. Gun, took us for a drive. Not much time.Danger, help !! Kel & Baby girl"

"Goddamnit. I knew it" Dom swore punching the wall.

"What are we gonna do?" Jesse was getting panicked.

"We're gonna get them back. And finish this Tran thing once and for all" Dom said, determined. "Brian, Leon, your with me. Jesse, Vince. Go to the restaurant, tell them whats up, and then call us. We'll direct you from there" Everyone nodded in agreement and headed out for their cars.

"Tran, this is it" Dom swore to himself as he roared down the highway towards the Tran's usual haunts.

"Not again" Jesse's mind screamed as he headed for the restaurant, feeling powerless yet again.

Time is ticking by.
