The New Driver (COMPLETE)

Third pov

A year went by before Phoenix gor a phone call from Brian.

She couldn't stop laughing once they were finished. Carter pulled her closer. "Want to share what that was about?"

"Brian called."

He raised an eyebrow. "And?"

"They're planning on taking down another of our competitors." She let a grin spread over her face. "Guess who."

"I don't know. Who?"

"Hernan Reyes."

Carter was amused as his wife laughed. Brian O'Conner and his family seemed to have a tendency to get into fights with the most unexpected people.

"What does he want us to do?"

She made a face. "He want us to act as a distraction. That way Reyes has to keep his eyes on two places."

Carter frowned as he thought about it. He wasn't a big fan of Brian but he is a friend of his wife, and, he begrudgingly admitted, the guy must have balls of steel considering the people they go up against.

Looking past that they had been thinking about expanding to Rio. They had Miami, Mexico and LA so more expansion would definitely not hurt. Besides, Reyes had been a thorn in their side for the last year.

"Alright. But you are not doing it alone. You can go there first but I'm coming after as soon as I've wrapped things up here." He said seriously.

Phoenix looked up at her husband and smiled. "I'll be careful. I promise."

They shared a hungry kiss.

"You better be."

Time skip

Going to Rio was fun but Phoenix still had to avoid Reyes's men as she looked for the right warehouse. The metal of her ring felt cool against her collarbone.

The inside of the warehouse looked like a fairly decent place. In the middle of the room was a platform with a group of people currently watching her with confusion, panic, distrust and in Brian's case relief.

She smiled big and spread her arms. "Someone called for help. Where's my favorite trouble maker?"

Brian felt a little uncomfortable with the eyes turning to him and the sudden hug from the redhead. "Hey Phoenix."

"Hey, Bri. Can't stay out of trouble, can you?" Her eyes moved to the woman eyeing them with a hint of jealousy. She just smiled. "You must be Mia. It's so nice to meet you. We didn't get to talk much last time." She shook her hand and winked. "I see Brian scored good."

That had the couple blushing and more confused stares from most of the others.

"You're the back-up Brian called?"

"Sure am. Now what's the plan?"

Can anyone leave pick up lines you think Roman would use?

Vote and comment, it keeps me motivated :)
