You are my breath of air...

Family

We had a hard day of working on our cars so we decided to take a break. Have a barbecue. I walked outside to hear someone yell.

"Ari! I think the chickens going dry!" I turned to see Dom layering sauce on the chicken as Letty was trying to fix it.

"I'm coming baby," I smiled and took the tongs from Letty. 

"Your better at cooking," Letty smiled and walked over to help Mia. I carefully checked the chicken before looking up at a nervous looking Dom.

"Theyre not dry Dom, they're perfect," I smiled and pressed a kiss to his cheek. I liked them onto a plate and set them down on the table. I sat between Dom and Jesse and Jesse instantly reached for the chicken.

"Hey, hold up!" Dom said as Jesse raised the chicken to his mouth. "Because you were the first to reach for the chicken, you say grace," he said. I looked around and couldn't see Vince, which brought a frown to my face. I closed my eyes, none the less, and clasped my hands before me.

"Dear heavenly..." Jesse said and paused. 

"Spirit," Leon and I whispered at the same time, making me giggle.

"Heavenly spirit, thank you," Jesse smiled. "Thank you for providing us with direct nitrous injection... Um... Four core intercoolers... Ball bearing turbos... Oh and titanium valve springs," Jesse said. We all clapped and I was the first to agree. 

"Amen," I smiled and squeezed his hand. 

"Amen!" Everyone agreed.

"Praying to the car god's man!" Letty said with respect in her voice.

"He's not the best..." Dom said and smiled fondly. He started to load up my plate and I smiled appriciatvely at him.

"Look who it is," Leon said and I looked up to see Vince. "Old 'Coyotes r us'. I thought you weren't hungry pumpkin," Leon teased.

"You know I gotta eat," Vince said and shrugged.

"He's always hungry," I smiled. 

"All right, sit down," Dom said and Vince kissed him on the back of the head. He kissed my hair and gave my shoulder a loving squeeze.

"How you doing Mia?" He asked and sat down beside her. 

"Hey Vince," I grinned and passed him a Corona. He smiled and raised it to me in thanks before drinking it like water. I passed him the plate of chicken and smiled at him. "Here you go sweetheart," I smiled.

"Let's eat some grub man," Letty said and patted his back. We all hungrily dug into our meal.

I sat down on the couch with my boys later. I was sitting on Dom's lap with my head on his chest but my legs were across Jesse's legs. We were watching some movie but I couldn't concentrate. All I could watch was Dom's beautiful face with the lights dancing across it. I pressed a kiss to his cheek and snuggled into him, my head on his chest. Vince stormed into the room and threw an empty bowl at Jesse. 

"There's no popcorn!" He protested and Vince scoffed. 

"Make your own popcorn," he growled before storming upstairs.
