Chapter Forty

Nicole walks around the truck. "Happy to say you finally caught Hailey Shaw?"

Hobbs looks over. "A little bit. Should have known you to be a Toretto."

"What would give it away?"

"You and your daddy's matching schemes at getting away."

Nicole shrugs. "You can't blame me for your old age."

"This old guy took your dad down."

"Your in that phase to huh?" Nicole asks him. Hobbs brow raised. "Memory loss."

"Watch it."

Nicole smirks but it soon falls. "How come your not grilling me about where Shaw is right now?"

"Not important at the moment."

"Isn't that what you want?"

"It is." Hobbs rest his hands on his belt. A brief look to where Dom talked with Han. "But I also figured," his eyes stray back. "you've been through enough today." Nicole nods. "Your dad went through hell to get you. When I found out he let his kid die, I didn't know the whole story. Now I do..."

"And?"

"I respect him." Hobbs nods. "That goes further to me then any law."

"So your not just a big mean cop? Who wears tight shirts?"

Hobbs broke face to chuckle. "No. I promised him help to get you and your mother back. I would want someone to do the same."

"You have a kid?"

"Daughter."

Nicole smiles. "That's interesting." She folds her arms. "Never pictured you as a dad."

"Same goes for yours."

"Touché, Hobbs." Nicole smile falls. "....I want to help you." Hobbs brow raised. "I need to go back before the night is over with. If I go, I can get you Shaw's location. But it won't last long."

"I can't ask you to do that."

"I'm not asking anyone for their permission." Nicole shakes her head. "I have to go back because he still believes I'm with him. Xander no longer there is flag to him.  If I don't walk back, he'll force me back."

"How are you going to explain that to Dom?"

"I don't know," Nicole admits. "I barely have it in me to leave him but I have to." She hands her phone to him. "Get Tej to track it."

Hobbs looks down at the phone before back up to her. "Why are you doing this?"

"I'm tired of being scared," Nicole tells him. "I want go home, and I meant that..."

Hobbs gives her a look. "You know I never go to tell you this in New York," Nicole brows pull. "But you are one tough ass kid, Nicole Toretto."

"My daddy taught me to be,"
