RIDE OR DIE, Tej Parker ✓

THIRTY-ONE

The next day, Han attempts the track after Reyna was the only one who was successful on the track despite having one mishap where she was caught making this too risky. "Close, but not enough," Gisele tells him as he gets out of his car. "Rey, Dom, the window is too small, man," Han says as he turns to face the two who are working on a car, "Only way we're going to beat the cameras is with invisible cars." Reyna thought for a moment as she looked at Dom until she smirked turning back to Han, "And I know just where to get them." Dom closed the hood as Reyna wiped the grease from her hands, "Let's take a ride, boys."

Gisele drives the van by the police station before Reyna, Dom, Brian, Han and Rome climb on top of the van and over the fence. They each get into a car before driving off with the cars, a smile resting on Reyna's face as she revved the engine. Reyna pulls up to a red light with Brian and Dom on either side of her. "It's been a while since I've been behind the wheel of one of these," Brian says as he looks at the dashboard. "First time I've ever been in the front seat," Dom says making Reyna nod in agreement, a wide grin on her face as Brian laughed.

Han and Roman then pulled up on the other side of Brian. "Hey, Rome, what took you so long?" Brian asks him in a teasing tone as Reyna leaned over, "Yeah, we thought for sure you'd be showing up with some chrome spinners or something." Rome looked at Brian and Reyna with a mock smile, "Real funny." Brian and Reyna chuckled as Rome grabbed the radio to speak through the speaker, "I got $100,000 that says I can take you all in the next quarter-mile." Reyna and Dom shared a smile knowing that he couldn't beat them in a race.

Brian raised his brows, "Yeah, your broke ass has got a hundred grand." Rome smirked before responding through the speaker, "If we pull off this job, I will. The next two lights. Hundred thousand." Reyna leaned back in her seat with a smirk, her fingers gripping the steering wheel as she breathed slowly. "We don't pull this job off, we're probably dead anyway," Han says as he looks at Brian, Reyna and Dom, "Let's make it a million." Reyna perked up with a smirk looking at Han. "I like that. All right, a million-dollar quarter-mile," Brian says as Dom smiled.

"All right then," Han says as he gets ready. "You only live once. Let's do it," Roman agrees over the speaker winking at Reyna making her laugh. "I'm game," Dom adds causing Brian to look at Reyna who hadn't spoken yet, "What do you say, Rey?" She turned her head to Brian with a smirk, "We talking or we racing?" Brian smiled, "Just don't cheat this time." Reyna chuckled at that as she looked forward, "Got to let that go." She tightened the grip on the steering wheel, her hand hovering over the gear shift as her leg began to bounce in excitement.

They all get ready for the light to turn green as they rev their engines, Rome takes off just before the light turns green with his sirens blaring and lights flashing. "Typical Roman," Brian says with an eye roll chasing behind Rome. "I'm going to get this money. I'm hungry," Rome cheers as he is in the lead. Brian gets beside Rome as there are parked cars on both sides of the streets. "Don't make it too easy for me boys," Rey says as she slips between Rome and Brian taking the lead, Dom slipping up behind up in the process.

Han then passes Rome putting him in the last place as Reyna smirked looking back at Brian, "Come on, brother." Brian's focus was purely on Reyna as he shifted gears, "Not this time Rey." Brian pulled up beside Dom and Reyna who were now side by side, the three next to each other causing Reyna to smile. "You got to want it, Brian," Dom says as he looks past Reyna to see Brian beside them. Han gets beside Dom with Rome on the other side of Brian. Reyna, Dom and Brian stayed a little ahead of Han and Rome as they near the last light.

Reyna looks over at Dom and nods with a smile on her face, she wanted to give Brian the win due to Mia being pregnant. Dom nods back before they both speed up getting slightly in front of Brian, who follows their lead and speeds up. Reyna and Dom let off the throttle making it seem as though Brian had just passed them. "Yeah! Owned you! Owned you!" Brian cheers as he wins leaving a genuine smile resting on Reyna's face as she drove side by side with Han on their way back to the hideout, a smile on Han's face as he glanced at her.
