CHERRY WINE (ON HOLD)

chapter five

WHEN THE three arrived back, more people started to pile in. it wasn't uncommon that after a toretto victory race there was a party following right after. the toretto family knew how to treat their guest.

"you want a drink?" milo found himself asking his girlfriend. the girl held up an almost full can shaking it lightly. "right," he muttered rolling his eyes as he walked away. the boy stood in the kitchen his back towards letty as he slowly sipped on his drink. the man was grumpy. letty and dom had been so absent minded towards him all day, he didn't know what he did to deserve this attention.

"hey, what's your name?" turning his head milo was met with a pair of stunning green eyes. milo turned his whole to face the person, a small smile coming to his face. it was a girl. she was small—skinny with pretty thighs and hips. she wore a short brown skirt with a matching top. her hair was lightly curled and her makeup was simple.

"murilo but i go by milo," he grinned. "what about you, mommy?" he questioned his accent coming out. the girl grinned giving him a once over. he was so hot and he had a accent as well. a girl could dream.

"mirabelle but i go my bella," she answered with a click of her tongue. "a pretty name for a pretty girl," he flirted, his eyes racked over body. he stole a quick glance from behind catching the predatory eyes of his girlfriend.

"you race?" she asked crossing her arms. he nodded with a grin. "from time to time," he replied leaning back on the counter. "you any good?" she questioned another.

he nodded. "haven't lost any so i would like to think i am," the girl giggled, her well manicured fingers covering her mouth.

"i could show you sometime," he smiled. "just so—so you can see for yourself," the girl grinned with a flutter of her eyes. she grabbed his head turning it palm upward. she bit her lip as she scrippled her number down.

"call me sometime," she told him leaning up to press a kiss on his cheek. she winked her eye before walking away. his eyes never leaving her retreating figure.

"what are you doing?" another voice said. milo glanced at his girlfri on end as he took a sip of his corona. "nothing," he said stuffing his hand into his pocket.

"doesn't seem like nothing," letty answered her eyes glancing down to the hand in his pocket. crossing her arms with a certain look on her face. milo shrugged as he chugged the rest of his drink.

"don't be paranoid mama it isn't a good look," milo teased passing by her with a kiss on her head. letty rolled her eyes with a huff as she opened the fridge to grab another beer for them.

"lying isn't a good look either," she commented turning to face his retreating figure. milo said nothing as he walked deeper into the packed house.

dominic arrived minutes later but he wasn't alone. the blonde man from earlier followed close behind him. he was irritated, anyone would notice. dom just needed know that to think. why is a man he doesn't know have have his back more than his own family.

dom stood scanning the room. he found letty laid in front of the tv. he saw leon with a girl straddling his lap. he saw jesse in a intense make out. he saw vince stumping his guitar with a ring of girls around him. he was only looking for one more person that he couldn't seem to find.

letty jumped up her feet as dom stepped over her. his eyes locking on his best friend. leon felt his eyes budge out and excuses were quick to fly out when his eyes locked on dominic. "yo, dom. hey man, we were just about to go looking for you, brother,"

leon was abruptly cut off when dom knocked his beer out of his hand. the liquid spilling all over him and the girl. he said nothing as leon questioned his action, he instead stormed over to where vince stood. vince blinked up at the man as he stopped right in front of him. "where were you?" dom questioned him angrily.

"there were mass cops there," vince sassily pointed out. "they came in from every direction. that shit was orchestrated," dom ignored his reply as he leaned down and grabbed a bottle of beer.

"this your beer?" he asked glancing up at the other. "yes that's my beer," vince nodded in reply.

dominic grabbed another unopened beer and started to walk away before pausing near jesse who was making out with the same girl. "yo, einstein. take it upstairs. you can't detail a car with the cover on, can't even get that right,"

"you all aright?" letty questioned as he walker past her. dom stopped and look at her. "am i all right?" letty raised her eyebrow at his tone a voice.

"it was just a question," she said with her arms crossed.

dom stared down at her before making his way back over to brian. vince seethed as his eyes caught sight of brian. "yo, dom! why'd you bring the buster here?"

that seemed to ick something in dom as he turned to face vince again. "cause the buster kept me out of handcuffs! he didn't just run back to the fort! the buster brought me back," he turned around and continued to walk towards the blonde man, holding a beer out to him.

"you can have any beer you want, as long as it's a corona,"

"thanks man," brian smiled as he took the offered beer that previously was vince's. dom smirked. "that's vince's, so enjoy it," brian used the hem of his shirt to wipe off the top it, his eyes never leaving vince's a he did so.

"hey, bro, you got a bathroom?" he to asked dominic who stared down vince. "upstairs, first door on the right,"

dom shook his head as he took a seat that letty stood across from. "he's got no call being up in here," vince said. "you don't know that fool for shit,"

"yeah, he's right, dom," leon agreed stepping toward the pair.

dom pointed at vince. "vince, there was a time when i didn't know you,"

"that was in the third grade!" vince argued back.

dom changed the subject, done with the whole conversation. "yeah. so, what girls are here?" he asked glancing up at the two.

letty scoffed and crossed her arms. "you name it. you want mine?" leon asked him, eager to get back on his good side. "you want two?"

letty stroked forward pushing leon back with a point of her finger. "you need to shut up," she glared at the man.

dom looked over at leon. "you don't have anything?"

letty stepped forward her boyfriend though looking down at him. "you look a bit tired. i think you should come upstairs and give me a massage,"

"look at all our guests,"dominic motioned around him. "where's milo?"

letty stepped up away from the man. "i'll get him then how about we go upstairs so you can give me a massage," she said turning to look back him.

dom sighed with a little laugh. letty found herself walking deeper into the party in search for her other boyfriend. she found him seconds later slumped on the couch.

"let's go upstairs," she said standing infring of him with her arms crossed. milo shook his head a small grin on his face. "it's a party, mama," he told her. letty leaned over the boy her palms gripped his thighs. her small skirt leaving nothing of the imagination.

"let's go upstairs now," she told him as she stood up and yanked him up by his collar. "okay, okay bebe. calm down chicá," he said putting his hands up in a fake surrender.

she grabbed him by his wrist leading him through the crowd. the two caught up with dom as he proceeded up the stairs. "yo," dom called to stopping the trio on the stairs. "you know you owe me a ten second car,"

"ouch," letty grinned as milo made a whistling noise. "oh shit," letty giggled tugging her two boys up the stairs.
