Falling for Thea Torretto

27. I love you

I open my eyes to the sun shining into a beautiful room that looks unfamiliar. I slowly sit up and take in my surroundings; wondering where in the world I'm at.

I throw back the covers and cautiously stand. My legs wobble as I take careful steps to the bathroom.
Trying to make it there before my bladder wins and decides I've held my pee in long enough.

I make it just in time. I hoist myself up make it back to the bedroom. I refuse to look at the rats nest a top my head. Knowing that it's bad.

I make it to the door, and lean against the wall as I go in the direction of voices.
When I move into the door way I find Luke and a pretty girl talking over breakfast.

I stare at them in confusion.

The girl notices me first and smiles at me. Luke turns and see's me standing there and moves to help me to the table.

" Thea why didn't you call for help?"
I take a seat and smile at his fussing. I look to the girl and ask
" is he always like this?"
She rolls her eyes as she says
" you should've seen him when I broke my arm. Babied me for six weeks. I liked it at first but it got real old after the first two weeks."

Luke is blushing when I look up at him. He rubs a hand over his head , clearing his throat to break up the attention that has been thrust upon him.

" Yeah well.... It was warranted. You couldn't do anything until you figured it out."

He takes his seat and I laugh at his expense. I wince in pain and He looks at me in concern

" How're you feeling?"

I sigh
" I'm sore and tender. My hair looks like a rat has built a nest in it. I need a shower , because I'm sure all they gave me was sponge baths and I need to call my family to let them know I'm alright."

He nods his head as he places a hand on my shoulder.

" I called Dom to let him know the situation. After he ripped me a new one , he agreed that you didn't need to drive home and aggravate that injury. He's waiting on you to call him when your ready. He said there's no rush."

I nod as I take a bite of bacon, and moan at the crispiness.
When I open my eyes Luke is looking at me with a look that instantly makes me soak my panties.

I clear my throat and take a sip of orange juice. I notice his daughter smiling as she takes a bite of her eggs.

I smile at her and ask
" so ..... wanna tell me what's been going on since I got here?"

I see a mischievous twinkle in her eyes as she opens her mouth to answer me but Luke clears his throat and says "I think it's better if she doesn't."

I raise an eyebrow at that as I turn to look back at her.
" we'll talk later."

She giggles at her dads exasperated look but quickly finishes her breakfast .

" I've got tons of homework to do. And I need to finish my science project. It was nice meeting you Ms. Thea!"
She gets up and places her plate on the counter and scurries off to her room.

When I turn to look back at Hobbs he's staring at me in a thoughtful way.
I slowly get up , grabbing my plate and glass, taking it to the sink.  I hear him get up walking towards me.
I don't turn around as I see his hands are placed around me on each side , caging me in. I take a deep breath , slowly letting it out.

" I knew you'd come for me."
He gently wraps me up in his strong arms , mindful of the wound on my stomach.

" I'll always come for you."

My heart skips a beat at those words. I turn and look up at him and ask
" I thought I was just a liaison?"

" You were never just a liaison Thea. You had me from the first moment you smarted off to me at the airport in Rio. Your smart, beautiful, resourceful, kind, compassionate,can throw a mean right hook, and I....."

I stare up into his eyes and see what I was hoping for shining there.

I cup his face , gently pulling him down to meet my lips. I kiss him gently, showing him all my love.

I pull back after a few moments , and say three words I had been guarding close to my heart since I met him all those months ago.

" I love you too."

He brings his forehead to mine just holding me in his arms. Sighing in relief.

" I love you, Thea Torretto . More than I thought possible. I'm so glad I took that job in Rio."

I chuckle at his honesty, but wince when my stomach muscles pinch.

" Ow don't make me laugh." I slap his bicep playfully.
He smiles down at me and I know that I've been blessed. I place my head on his chest and sigh in contentment.

" Come on let's get you back to bed. You still have a long way to go before your healed up."

He gently picks me up and carries me back to the guest bedroom. I look longingly at the bathroom but sleep is making my eyes droop.

" I promise I will help you wash your hair when you get up but for right now rest and get your strength back."

He places me on the bed , pulling the blankets up around me. I smile up at him and say as I drift off .

" love you muscles."

Just as I drift off I hear him say
"I love you too, my Diamond."
