10th May- Rio
Outside Elena's apartment
Lotty's POV
'Well well well Dominic. Looks like both the Toretto's have a thing for cops.' I thought bitterly as I watched from a distance Dominic sneak into the apartment. They had finished Rio just a few short weeks ago and had taken off. It had taken me a couple of phone calls before I found them again, course I hadn't told Leon or Letty that I had lost them for a bit. As far as Letty and Leon knew I had been following them whole time. Dom was my main focus so when he suddenly left the island he, Mia and Brian had settled on after just a few weeks it got me suspicious. I should have known that the female cop would have had something to do with it. The way they had been looking at one another during Rio should have been enough of a hint.
Once I was sure he wasn't going to come out again suddenly I crept quietly up to the window. I felt like a peeping-tom as I raised my camera and snapped a few. They were standing opposite each other and were talking by the looks of things. They were talking too softly for me to hear them through the glass but it wasn't long before the female cop raised her voice slightly just enough for me to hear.
"Why? Why are you back here?"
"I wanted to see if you were trust worthy."
"Am I?"
"As far as I can tell."
I waited with baited breath as I watched them speak for a few seconds more before silence fell over them. Feeling like something was about to happen I raised my camera and waited. Sure enough a second later they were backed against the wall kissing. Feeling a stab of an unknown emotion, I sneered as I took the pictures. After five minutes they had moved to the bedroom and after one last picture I had seen enough. Standing I gave them both one last sneer before I moved away from the window and disappeared into the night.
Letty wasn't going to like what these pictures showed.
19th May- Mexico City
Letty and Leon's apartment
Leon's POV
I listened from the lounge as I heard Letty talking and humming quietly to Ava as she put her to sleep for the night. Parts of it were in Spanish and though I couldn't understand it still had that calming effect, even on me.
It wasn't long before the door shut and I heard Letty move through the hallway back towards the lounge. I sent her a small smile as she rounded the corner and she returned it tiredly.
"She asleep?"
"Finally." She breathed as she collapsed beside me.
"At least she sleeps nearly all through the night now." I said trying to relax her a bit.
"That's very true. I guess I should consider myself lucky. She is quite a good baby, I shouldn't really complain."
"She's perfect." I said smiling watching as Letty rolled her eyes at me.
"Mmmm I wouldn't go that far…"
"But?" I smirked as a smile tugged at the corner of her mouth.
"She is pretty close." She smiled.
"Four months...I can't believe how much time has passed." I spoke in disbelief.
"Please don't remind me. I wish I could just press a button and she would stay little forever."
"I don't know, it was a pretty proud moment when she rolled over for the first time."
"Yeah it was. To think she will probably be crawling soon."
"She'll keep us on our toes."
"I have no doubt." She scoffed and I grinned.
"Lotty sent some more photos." I spoke as I pulled the envelope out.
"Last we heard they were wrapping up Rio, they'd just become millionaires. He got what he always wanted." She added bitterly.
"Yeah but as usual it came with a cost." Leon muttered both of us going silent as we thought about Vince.
"Are there any notes?" She asked quietly as I opened the envelope. I pulled out the notes and handed them over before I started through the pictures. I got half way through before I started to slow down. I stared down at a picture of Dom and the female cop as an unsettling feeling settled over me. Flipping through the next four my feeling became reality as I stared down at the unbelievable scene in front of me. I glanced over the next couple knowing they were going to be worse and sure enough they were.
"Le?"
"Huh?" I snapped out of my daze as I turned to her.
"I said anything new?" Quickly I glanced down at the pictures and shuffled them all back into one pile.
"Uh nope, just the same old same old." I said as I held them close and stood from the lounge.
"Leon you're an awful liar." She spoke calling me out as I made a hasty exit from the room. I heard her footsteps behind me and knew if I could just get to my room I could get rid of the incriminating ones and give her the rest.
"Leon." She hissed quietly as she caught my arm in the kitchen. I refused to look at her keeping my grip tight on the photos as she stood in front of me.
"Hand them over." She demanded but I shook my head.
"Leon, hand them over." She spoke slowly.
"Let…" I breathed and she paused as she heard my tone. She frowned at me as her face showed torment.
"Let me see."
"I can't." I said shaking my head but she snatched for them. I resisted at first but with one more tormented look from her face I let them go and waited. One by one she flicked through them in front of me but half way she started slowly and her face showed her pain.
"Letty…" I tried again as I reached for them but she stepped back and moved them out of my reach. As she turned her back to me I glanced at the picture she was staring down at. There was no way that it could be misinterpreted. It was clear as day in the photo; Dom and the female cop almost naked up against the wall kissing. Seeing her hands shake I walked up behind her placing one hand on her shoulder while my other reached for them. She resisted at first but I pulled her to my chest and she let go. The photos dropped to the ground, scattering across the floor in all directions as I took her in my arms.
"Lotty shouldn't have sent those." I muttered as I held onto her tightly. She said nothing as she remained still.
"How could he?" She whispered. I was torn as to what to say to her. On one hand I was just as angry with him but on the other it was only to be expected. Everyone thought she was dead. He was moving on.
"Let… he thinks you're dead." I said carefully.
"I've been dead for what? Not even a year yet, I bet you anything she's not the first." She snapped as she tried to move away but I held fast.
"Let…" I tried but she shook her head.
"Don't stick up for him."
"I'm not, I'm on your side. Always have been, always will be."
"I can name one time that wasn't the case." She mumbled and I knew she was talking back to the Tran incident.
"From that day on I was always on your side." I said strongly and she sagged into me.
"Why does he do this to me Leon?" She whispered.
"Because you still love him." I spoke softly.
"Love is the furthest thing I feel for him." She snapped but I let it go not wanting to call her out seeing as she wasn't ready to deal with her emotions just yet.
"It's been a long day, why don't you go to bed?" I suggested.
"Even if I did I can't sleep after seeing that." She whispered. She said nothing more as we stayed hugging in the kitchen. I looked around as I thought of something to say but nothing came to mind.
"What can I do Let? Tell me what I can do?" I pleaded.
"I don't know."
