5th March, Mexico
Leon’s house
Letty’s POV
“Does anyone else know?” Dom asked as I lay wrapped up in his arms. From where we laid on the bed we could hear Leo and Han playing with Lexie and Ava. The voices in the kitchen letting us know no one was going to disturb us and Ava was well looked after.
“Lotty and Leon. I have an inkling Leon told Elena.” I muttered the last part unhappily. I had mended bridges with Elena and we were both fine now but I hadn’t wanted anyone else to know before Dom.
“She won’t tell, not until we’re ready at least anyway.” He spoke gently as he kissed my hair.
“I know.” I sighed.
“I love you Let.” He whispered and I sighed in content as I burrowed further into his arms.
“I love you too.”
“Ava’s gunna get jealous.” He spoke quietly and I nodded.
“That is a big possibility. Maybe if we get her excited with the idea of being a big sister she might cope better.” I spoke.
“Yeah, lets not tell her yet though, or anyone else. I just want more us time before everyone else gets involved.” Dom pleaded and I nodded happily.
“Deal.” I spoke as I kissed his lips softly.
“Knock knock.” We looked up as an amused voice sounded from the door.
“Leon.” I muttered in mock annoyance.
“Dinner’s ready.” He voiced looking between Dom and I. I answered his silent question with a small smile and he grinned.
“Congrats daddy.” He spoke quietly with a smile. Dom chuckled lightly but nodded in acknowledgement none the less.
“Thanks. Keep it under wraps yeah? We never got this chance last time, I want all the time I can get with it being just us.” He pleaded with Leon who nodded in agreement.
“Our lips are sealed. Come on Ava’s getting fussy.” He spoke before he left the room.
“I suppose we better go and feed the eldest one.” Dom joked as his hand lingered for a moment on my stomach.
“Yeah. I can handle this one for now.”
“We’ll see. I give it a month before you start waking me for late night cravings.” I laughed but said nothing knowing he was probably right.
“Well well well look who it is Ava. Mummy and daddy are finally awake.” Brian teased.
“We weren’t sleeping.” Dom laughed as he grabbed a plate of Mia.
“I don’t wanna know, neither does your daughter.” Brian teased as the rest of the company laughed.
“Now hold up a second. Did he smack it or just grab onto it?’ Tej asked as Roman and Brian laughed their way to the dinner table.
“No comment.” Dom laughed as I shot him a half hearted glare.
“I’m glad you told him. You both look so happy.” I turned to Charlotte as she spoke to me quietly while everyone else busied themselves with dinner.
“Yeah, I think for the first time since he went to jail we are happy. Lotty about Hobbs-“ I started but she shook her head, shooting me down in an instant.
“It’s in the past.” She spoke sadly, not meeting my eyes.
“Is it?” I asked seriously.
“It can never happen Let, no matter how much I still love him. We’re from two different worlds now. He’s never going to let you all go.” She whispered as I wrapped an arm around her shoulder.
“Lotty I know what it’s like to be without your other half. I know what it’s like fighting to keep away, you didn’t want that for me and I don’t want that for you. If you love him go after him. The rest of us can fend for ourselves. Don’t let us hold you back.”
“This is my family now Let. You, Dom, Mia, Brian, Leon, Gisele, Lexie, Ava, the boys… fuck even Elena. Hobbs has no place in my life anymore.”
“Lot-“
“Let please.” She begged as I noted the tears in her eyes. With a sigh I nodded, backing away with one last squeeze as I sat myself next to Dom. He looked at me for answers but I just smiled, my way of letting him know everything was okay and I’d tell him later.

Leon’s house
Dom’s POV
“Holy shit it’s actually real.” I muttered in disbelief as I stared down at the photo in my hand.
“Well I wasn’t lying.” Letty laughed at me as she took a glance at the photo from her spot between my legs.
We’d spent all morning at the doctors, waiting as they ran test after test. Sure enough the test Letty had taken that morning on the Islands had been right. When the doctor had mentioned ultrasound I had all but jumped up and down with excitement. I had never gotten to see Ava like this so I had been ecstatic at the thought of seeing our baby growing inside Letty for the first time.
“I know that, I just still can’t believe this is really in there. ” I spoke in awe as I looked carefully at the photo while my free hand rested on her bare stomach.
“Well you have seven and a half months to come to terms with it.” She joked.
“Shh let me be excited.” I scolded playfully as I pulled her closer.
“I’m glad you’re happy.” She whispered in relief as she lay her head down on my chest.
“Let I’m more than happy.” I whispered back as she dozed off to sleep.
