"This better be worth it, Creed. I pulled a few favors gettin' you here." Leslie rolls her eyes at his words, standing up from the chair as the flight attendant opens the door for her. "Well, if it makes you feel better, I appreciate it. And, just so we're clear, he has no idea I'm here, right, Hobbs?" The man shoots her an offended look, "the fact that you think I would snitch on you to your little boyfriend hurts. I'm offended, Creed."
Leslie chuckles, shaking her head in amusement. "Yeah well, thank you for this. I know it was last minute."
"Hey, I don't like you, but I have respect you. You ever need any favors, I'm your person. Good luck." Hobbs says, shooting her a grin as she pulls open her car door. "Tell Hattie, I say hi." Leslie enters the car and drives off quickly, going to a place she had long left in her past. Loud music echoed the place, she smiled, it already felt like home. All the memories of her and Joseph here flashed through her mind. For once, she actually felt relaxed, and at peace.
Leslie parked her car, it was a red Chevrolet Corvette C6. She climbed out, looking around for any familiar faces. "Leslie? Is that you?!" She turned around, spotting an old friend of hers. It was Juanito, he was Jamie's best friend. "Jaun! Yeah, it's me." She grinned, pulling him into a hug. "What are you doing here? How long has it been? 10 years?" He grinned, pressing a kiss to her cheek before pulling away.
"Yeah, it's been a long time. I'm actually here on business, you could say." She said, leaning against her car. "Oh, that's what's up. Is Leo with you? We haven't seen him around in a while." Leslie shook her head quickly, "Nah, I don't really race with my dad that much. You know how it is, busy schedules and shit." Jaun nodded at this, he knew the Creed family had some chaotic as schedules. "Yeah, I get it. You know, we were all upset that you didn't show up to Jamie's funeral, man. We did a race dedicated to him, wish you got to be apart of it."
Leslie looked down sadly, being here brought back all the memories she shared with Jamie. "I know, I'm really sorry. It was just a lot for me. I never took loss that well, that's why I had to get out of here. Too many memories." Jaun nodded in understanding, giving her a sad smile. "Sorry to hear about Joseph, though. I know we had our troubles but he was a good guy." Jaun says. Leslie gives a confused look, furrowing her brows at him. "What do you mean by troubles?"
Jaun raised a brow in disbelief, "he didn't tell you?"
"Tell me what, Jaun?"
"A few weeks before Jamie died, we had gotten into it with Joseph cause word got out about him being a cop or agent, something like that. Jamie didn't like how he had been locking up some of our guys so he confronted him. Joseph said he'd back off but when he didn't, Jamie got pissed off, so he threatened to go and tell you. Next thing I know, Jamie passed, and I won't lie to you, Leslie, but me and the guys think Joseph had something to do with it." Jaun explains, but Leslie didn't look to be surprised by any of this information.
