"Yeah." Brian frowned. "Mia mentioned that he ownes me now. Unfortunately that won't be good enough. How did you get you car? Did you win it or am I the only one stupid enough to race for slips?"

As Dom was at grill finishing up the chicken Mia asked if he needed anymore help. "Sure want to go get all the condiments." He flipped the chicken then glanced over to Brian. "Your on my good graces but it doesn't mean that I still trust you." he chuckled. He was listening to Leon and Brian's conversation he butted in "Brian you don't need cash now a days its called a credit card. You pay for it later when you can."
When Mia came out with all the condiments he placed the chicken on a plate and brought it to the table. They waited for everyone to sit at the table. Dom looked around the table "Alright who is going to say grace?"

Mia nodded, before turning around to walk in the back door of their house. She cast a passing glance at Brian just as she brushed by, and let the door swing shut behind her. Padding into the kitchen, she jerked the fridge door open and peered inside. Mia glanced around for a moment before she started plucking items out one by one. By the time she was finished and walking outside again-- arms full of ketchup, mustard, and other assortments-- the food was on the table and everyone was starting to meander over to the table. She set everything down at the center, and took her seat next to Brian once again. "Alright who is going to say grace?" Dom asked, and she looked around like everyone else, waiting to see who volunteered first.

Brian lowered his head. he wasn't very religious and had never done it before. He heard Jesses speach about cars the other day and grinned slightly. Under the table he nudged Mia slightly hoping she would do it.

Mia couldn't help the little jolt that had her knocking her knees agianst the bottom of the table. The nudge Brian had given her made her jump. Looking over at him, she saw the silent desperation in his eyes and couldn't help the amused smile that flitted across her mouth. Closing her eyes, she laced her fingers together and leaned forward against the table. Clearing her throat, she began softly. "Thank you for this food," She started, pausing as she listened to everyone settle into their poses. "Thank you for new friends. Thank you for a good, happy life. Oh, and not to mention the internal combustion engine. Amen."

Brian mouthed 'thank you' to Mia and lowered his eyes. When she was done he reached for a piece of meat. One had to be fast with all these hungry buggers around. Plus Dom ate for three. "Thanks for the invitation, guys." He filled his plate and started chewing. "By the way. When's the next race?"

Mia smiled when she looked up, glancing at Brian before she looked to Dom. She wasn't all that hungry, so she would wait for everyone else to get their food before she dove in. When Brian asked about the next race, she couldn't help the amused glint that lit up her brown eyes. She looked between Dom and Leon, waiting for them to answer.

Leon laughed as he heard Mias thanks, it had her own spin on it while she added the last bit for the absent Jesse, he laughed shakig his head, the second she was finished reaching for the food along with the others.
"Friday"He answered Brian "Then we party all weekend"He continued before taking a bite out of the chicken Dom had made.

Brian's eyes brightened when he heard about the race. He swallowed the piece of chicken and asked. "So are you going to teach me a few tricks after dinner to prepare me for the race?" He had been trying to get Dom to let him race for his crew for three weeks now but always got the same reply. "You're not ready yet." Or "The car's not done." The car was done and just sitting out front waiting to be raced. Brian had driven it almost every day but there was only so much practise you could get on a public road.

Leon looked over at Dom he knew his reasons for Brian not racing, but there was only so much time they could keep fobbing him of, he shrugged his shoulders then looked back over at Brian, the car was done after all, he nodded his head wipping his mouth with the back of his hand.
"Sure"He said nodding at the smile on Brians face.
"Car needs a full stretch out any way, theres a strip of road out here where we can really test ya"

Mia smiled at the thought. She would love to watch her boys race it out. It was something she always enjoyed-- almost more than racing herself. She would end up going with them to see them race. "It's where Dom taught me," Mia commented softly, picking at her food.

Brian nodded eagerly. "Test me all you want. I'm ready!" He said fully convinced that he could beat just about anybody now. He was still new to this whole racing thing but he'd caught the bug and loosing wasn't an option anymore-not for Brian O'Conner. Mr. Hotshot himself. He took another bite and swallowed it almost without chewing. "When do we go?" he wanted to know glancing from one to the other. And with a look at Mia he added. "I want to show you what I got."

Leon chuckled at the excitment in Brian's eyes it reminded him of himself when he had first started racing. He shook his head and pushed away his empty plate.
"We can leave as soon as its dark" He said taking down a mouthfull of Coronoa
"Dont get to cocky though"He said pointing at him "I dont like looseing"

Brian raised his chin and smiled a pretty cocky smile. "Me neither!" He pointed at Leon. "You're on. Let's see who's faster!" Brian hadn't done many races but he was convinced that if he could almost beat Dom it wouldn't be a problem to leave Leon behind.

Leon knew exactly what he was thinking, could see it written all over his face, he obvioulsly thought that because he had nearly beat Dom he would be able to beat him to, he guessed he was forggeting how he had blown his car doing so, and stil lost.
"We'll see"He said leaning back into his seat and folding his arms behind his head and staring over at Brian, he nodded his head, he could beat him, he was still a rookie, and Leon always did better on long stretches of roads, he figured Brian would make the same rookie mistake like last time, he just hoped he didnt blow the engine again, or Dom would have his ass.
