Dom's POV
My dad looked up when I walked back into the garage and I knew he was going to say something.
"You took a while." He said disapprovingly.
"Sorry dad." I mumbled and he nodded not saying anything again as I handed over the parts I had picked up.
The day seemed to just crawl on by at an agonizing slow pace. My phone was constantly beside me with the hopes of hearing from Letty. I had never been like this with another girl before and it was scaring the hell out of me but at the same time I was enjoying it. Letty was different and how I felt about her was nothing I had ever felt before.
I stopped work when I heard the small buzz of my phone. Glancing at dad seeing he was busy underneath a car I reached out and opened the message happy to see it was Letty.
School's boring… I grinned at the message and replied back immediately.
Did you expect it to change suddenly from last year?
Looking at the time I realize she was still in class but knowing Letty she didn't care.
No but I thought it might get a little more interesting
Hearing dad roll out from the car he was working on I shoved my phone away and started work again until I was sure he wasn't looking then pulled it out again.
What class have you got?
Math Mr G's class I winced he was my old math teacher and a real pain in the arse.
Ouch… sucks to be you :P just think baby you've made it through a whole hour only five more to go
-_- I'm going to get you back for that comment I hope you realize that. Stop counting… it makes it seem longer. And I'm still bored Toretto, entertain me.
Entertain you? How do you suggest I do that?
I looked up and noticed dad watching me and I froze quickly shoving my phone away again as I concentrated on working. It wasn't that he didn't allow us to use our phones its just I didn't want him to know I was texting Letty. Finishing my car quickly I locked it up and picked up the paperwork to go enter in the computer.
"Dom can you do mine as well please?" Dad asked as I walked past as I nodded taking his outstretched paperwork. Once safely in the office I fired up the computer and while I was waiting I got out my phone.
I'm sure you can think of something…
I smiled amused at her text message. Was she flirting with me via text?
Sorry baby I wasn't ignoring you, don't want to get caught by dad. Are you flirting with me miss Ortiz?
I took my time typing in the details to my car and almost immediately I received another text. Looking down at my phone I smiled.
My lame attempt of trying to yes
Well how about I tell you one of the things I'd like to do to you? Is that entertaining enough?
I laughed quietly knowing what her reaction would be when she read that, I meant it as a joke but I knew she'd be blushing like crazy. In reality she'd probably die if I told her half the things I thought about wanting to do with her. I noticed she didn't reply as quickly this time around and I wondered maybe if I had crossed the line. I had both lots of paperwork done before I got a reply back and I practically jumped on my phone worried about what she had said.
Well… Spent the last five minutes trying to work out what to say to that and I still can't form words so we'll just go with okay…
Sorry baby I meant it as a joke… I just wanted to see your reaction
"Dom?" I put my phone away again and got up going out to the main garage where my dad had called from.
"Yeah dad?" I asked seeing him wipe his hands.
"Can you help me with this car?" I felt a little disappointed but nodded anyway.
"Sure I'm just going to the bathroom first though."
"Okay can you bring back the keys for this when you come back?"
"Sure." I said as I walked towards the bathroom. Truth was I didn't need to use it I wanted to text Letty.
I'm sure you can imagine my reaction… and besides now you have my attention I'm curious.
I didn't know whether to be happy or scared that she wanted to know, either way now it had to wait.
I can imagine… I have to work with dad, I'll text you when I can.
I was smiling as I walked out to get the keys as I headed over to dad. He gave me a look but didn't say anything as he took the keys. I looked at Vince and he shook his head mouthing the words 'whipped' at me and behind dad's back I flipped him the bird as he laughed at me.
I heard my phone go off and I chanced a look at dad as he watched me.
"Sorry dad." I said carefully.
"Let me guess it's that Tran girl?" he asked sounding disapproving but I shook my head. He looked surprised.
"No I actually took your advice and broke up with her on the weekend." He looked pleased but you could tell he was trying to hide it. He didn't say anything else again and I was glad.
The day dragged on and when lunch rolled around my phone was in my hand immediately. Looking at the last text message that she had sent I grinned.
I'll be waiting to hear papa
I knew dad was still watching me but I honestly didn't care, I didn't think he would ask.
"Let me guess Letty?" Vince asked quietly as we sat out the back while dad was in the office doing something.
"Maybe." I said but I couldn't stop smiling.
"Man you really are whipped but I'm glad for you and…her." He said as he saw dad walking out.
"You're different with her." He added quietly and I just shrugged as I turned back to my phone.
You sure you wanna know? It could be a little graphic…
Believe me I've been thinking about it all day, I wanna know
This surprised me a little but it also made me happy to think she actually thought about it as well.
You on my car is probably my number one fantasy... I hesitated a few seconds before I pressed send.
Well maybe one day we'll do something about that. That remark had me shocked but it also gave me some hope.
I'll hold you to that.
The rest of the day passed like a blur after that. Letty and I were still secretly texting and I noticed the more curious glances I kept getting off dad.
"Okay Dominic spill, what's the deal?" My dad asked corning me in the office as I was about to leave to pick the girls up from school.
"What do you mean?"
"Well first you snuck out last night and then snuck in this morning when you thought I was still asleep and two I've never seen you this happy you haven't put the phone down all day. Is there another girl I should know about?" Dad asked.
"Is it a crime to be happy?" I asked carefully and he gave me an amused look.
"Dominic…"
"Okay yes there's a girl." I relented.
"Were you with her least night?" I hesitated but seeing as he knew I snuck out I thought it was best not to lie.
"Yes but not in that way it was completely innocent I swear." I clarified quickly.
"Although I'm glad to hear that you have to understand I'm going to find it a little hard to believe with your track record." I nodded.
"So do I get meet this girl who seems to have caught your attention?" I froze a little and looked awkwardly at my dad.
'You already have.' I wanted to say but I thought that might not go down too good so I opted for the safe option.
"Well eventually…"
"Eventually?" he echoed and I gave him an awkward shrug.
"Thing is dad this is kinda new to the both of us. She's really special dad."
"Dominic I know how you treat women…" he started and I could tell he was worried.
"Dad this is different I swear, I've never felt anything like this before. She's different." I cut in.
"Okay I'll give you the benefit of the doubt for now. You better go and get the girls from school." I nodded and sent my dad an awkward smile as I all but ran from the garage trying not to seem too excited about going to get Letty.
