For a while Brian slept soundly at Mia's side. When the memories of bus flipping and the following disaster came up he started stirring in his sleep. He had to process the experience. After a while he settled down again.
The long time of sleep did him a world of good and he didn't wake up until late that night. It was pitch black and the house quiet. His hand searched for Mia wondering whether she'd still be there.

Mia watched as he slept, stroking his back, and running her finger through his hair when he became restless, she lent forward, dropping a kiss to the top of his head as she slipt out of the bed. She came back upstaries ten minuets later after she had found out that the cops hadnt been back, and Leon was going to take Faye back to the motel. She had asked Letty to come and get them if the cops turned back up.
She walked back into the room and lent agasint the door for a moment as she watched Brian sleep soundly, he seemed so at peace, she smiled and tip toed back over to the bed, and wrapped her arms around him once more.
"Hey, feel rested"She questioned raied a brow, holding his hand as he reached for her.

Faye looked over at her brother with a raised brow, she wanted to argue, say that she should stay here, that it would look of if she went now, but she had seen the anger in his eyes when he had yelled at Brian, he looked tired, she bit her lip and sighed.
"Lets go"She whispered, her gaze wondered over to Jack and she smiled.
"Try not to get arrested again"She shook her head and turend towards Letty.
"If he comes back, dont hit him"she laughed and turned to her brother "And you need to keep your cool"

Letty smiled at Faye, walking both her and Leon to the door. "I'll try," she promised with a smirk. "We'll have to see how that turns out."
After they left she went upstairs breifly to check on Mia and see how Brian was holding up, before she came back downstairs going into the living room and dropping down into the sofa.
She was exhaused. She didn't think that it was possible to have so much happen in one day. She thought about Dom, and it bothered her to know that they had just busted him out of prision only to find himself being chased down by the cops again.
She hoped that he would find a way to get them off his ass, and get himself back home to her safely. She had only just gotten him back.

Jack nodded at Faye and smirked. "Yes ma'am, I'll do my best."
The moment everyone had either left the house or had gone upstairs, he kicked down one of the kitchen chairs. "Fuck!" Maybe instead of talking himself in to the heist, he should've talked Brian out of it. Now his brother had almost croaked it, they all had to look over their shoulder for the cops and for what? Dom was already being chased by the cops again and who knew how all this shit would end.
As he rubbed the back of his neck, going over everything that had happened, his thoughts got interrupted when he heard Letty come back down the stairs. She looked tired, hell, they all did.
He turned and grabbed two Corona's from the fridge before he followed her in to the living room, handed her one of the beers and slumped down on a comfortable chair. "You looked like you could use one." He mumbled while he twisted the cap off of his own beer.

"Thanks man," she replied taking the Corona from Jack. She twisted the cap of using the end of her shirt, and then took a long drink from the bottle. The cool liquid was refreshing and she relaxed into the couch.
She looked over at Jack who seemed distracted, and she couldn't help but think how mature the kid had gotten since she had met him. He looked alot like Brian, with the blond hair and blue eyes, but both had completely different personalities.
"You did a good job out there today you know." He'd been through so much for the team today, and he hadn't even been properly introduced to Dom yet. Boy had almost been shot, almost been arrested and he had come so close to losing his only brother.
"I owe you for being there, when I didn't show up."

It was good to feel Mia's hand when he woke up. Nice to know that she cared so much that she stayed by his side. "Were you here the whole time?" he asked with his eyes still closed. "Thank you." Slowly he opened his eyes but the only light came from a small lamp on Mia's night side table. It barely lit the room. "Did the cops come back? Or Dom?" He turned to his side to face her. She looked tired. Strands of her dangling loose from the pony tail she had pulled them into. Dark circles under her eyes, which were full of concern. "How are you?"

Jack waved Letty's words away with a half-assed smile. "Wouldn't want to have missed it for the world."
Taking a gulp from his beer, he stared out in front of him for a moment, slightly frowning at her last words. Due to all the chaos, he had forgotten that she hadn't shown up at the warehouse this morning like planned. It was strange. Especially since she had been busting Brian's balls to get Dom out.
"So what happened with you?" He turned his gaze on to her as he continued. "Don't wanna sound ungrateful here since you did save our asses in the end but, what took you so long to get there?"

Letty hesitated in telling Jack what had really happened, since she hadn't had the chance to talk to Brian about it yet. When she rolled out of bed this morning it had been the last thing that she would have though she'd have to deal with.
"It's complicated," she answered slowly deliberating how to explain herself without the details. "I got an unexpected phone call this morning, and I wasn't sure that leaving the house would be a good idea."
She paused thinking about it again, "But you know me, I can't sit still for too long, and I could help but think that things had gone south when none of you were answering your cell phones." she took another drink from her Corona, running a hand through her hair.
"So I sucked it up decided I didn't care; some stupid phone call wasn't going prevent me from missing out on the action. It's a good thing I came when I did."
She remembered how vulnerable they all looked standing out in the middle of the highway surrounded by cops.

The chase across town left Dom with more cops on his tail than he had bargained for. They were closing in on him.
Just when he was about to get nervous he spotted a car wash. They wouldn't fall for that old trick, would they? On the spot he decided it was worth a try and steered the Gran Torino into it. The cops in pursuit wondered what the heck he was doing. Surely he didn't need to wash his car.
After Dom another car entered the car wash. So they decided to wait at the other end.
While the large rotators where whirling water and soap around Dom got out and exited the building at the entrance by foot wearing the neighbours old fishing hat. With his pulse at 180 but no emotion on his face he walked straight across the street and away from the car wash.
Luckily a bus was just about to leave on the other side of the street.
All the cops found at the end of the carwash was an old American Classic that had no driver. Of course they searched the car wash and the surrounding buildings. In vain.
Dom looked back at them from the leaving bus with a smirk on his lips. "Excuse me, may I borrow your phone for a moment?" He asked a surprised young girl.

Mia smiled slowly nodding her head as she caresed the side of his face"Yea, apart from the ten or so minuets i went to check on every one"She replied softly, voice but a whisper as she took in his own tired features, luckily his tempeture had fallen and he was no longer clamy, that was a good sign.
Mia shook her head trailing her fingers through his hair, down his back, her hand comeing to rest onto his shoulders. "Its ok, we're ok"She whispered "Doms still not back though"She hoped her voice hadnt hitched at the last bit, she didnt want to show how worried she was that her brother hadnt retured yet, or that neither had the police.
"How are you?" Mia smiled tiredly and moved so she could rest in his arms more comfortable "Im tired"She whispered, she hadnt really gotten much sleep the night before, instead making sure she kept her safe awake so that she could ensure he was ok, ensure that every one was ok.

Mia's voice cracked slightly when she mentioned Dom. Enough for Brian to tell that she was emotional. "After everything that just went down you're holding up great." he rubbed her arm down to her hand, then interlinked his fingers with hers. "Dom's going to be fine. He's a master at evading cops." Brian knew from experience. "Don't worry."
He looked at her in the dim light getting lost in thoughts. "Thanks for talking some sense into me earlier." Mia had a good sense of what was best for them and sometimes he needed a little persuasion.
Just then the telephone in the hallway downstairs rang. A look at his watch told Brian it was 1.30 am.

Jack just nodded at Letty's words. He could tell that she didn't want to go in to detail and decided to let it rest since it probably wasn't any of his business anyway. She had shown up in the end and that was all that mattered.
He propped his feet up on the coffee-table and raised his bottle in a toast. "Here's to a happily ever after ending." Just as he was about to take another gulp from his beer, his movement got interrupted by the sound of a phone ringing. His eyes shot towards the living-room clock. 1:30am. "Now there's an unusual timing for a social call." He looked over at Letty who seemed just as surprised by the hour. "Do you think it's Dom?"

Mia nodded her head, she knew her brother would be ok, he always was, but then, sometimes, he wasnt, he had been caught before. She bit the bottom of her lip, looking at Brian through heavy lidded eyes, she smiled. rubbing her hand up and down his back.
"Its ok, just never be that stubourn again"She joked, she knew where he had been comeing from, and understood. She rested her head on him, eyes drifting closed when the shrill sound of the phone startled her to open her eyes.
"Do you think its Dom"She whispered torn between staying there and letting someone else answer the phone and getting up and answering it.

"Go ahead and check. I bet it's him!" he encouraged her to go. Jokingly he added. "Or would you like me to go and answer the phone?" He gave her a slight nudge.

Mia laughed, looking at him, she let out a breath and slid from the bed, padding out of the room and down the staries, picking up the phone, she smiled over at Jack and Letty.
"Hello"

"Mia, I'm okay." Dom briefly said into the phone. He was well aware that by now the cops were probably listening in on every conversation on the line to his house. "I'm not going to tell you where I'm going so you don't have to pretend not to know. Just know I'm good." With that he hung up. His eyes stared at the pay phone. He longed to be with his sister and Letty. He wanted to thank his friends. He wanted to hang out and lead a normal life. None of that was going to happen he was aware. That's why he figured he was done running when Brian and him captured Braga. Brian was right though. Being on the run was better than a life in Lompoc. There was still the hope to see them all again one day. His stare had become icy when he turned around and walked down the lonely street at night.

Mia didnt sighed at hearing her brothers voice down the phone she clutched it tighter to her ear. "Dom where are you"She whispered urgently, she desperatly wanted to know, wanted to know so she could go and get him and never look back.
"I'm not going to tell you where I'm going so you don't have to pretend not to know. Just know I'm good." Mia closed her eyes, tears springing to them, she should have known, the dial clicked as she put it down, with a little more force then she ment.
She turned around to face everyone and with a shaky breath she lent agasint the wall. "He said he's fine, but he wont say where he is"

On top of the stairs Brian had shown up. He was too eager to know whether it was Dom calling or possibly the cops to stay in bed. When he saw Mia's expression he frowned but as soon as her words came out breathed a sigh of releif. "Thank goodness."

Mia turned to look at Brian, slowly nodding her head "He's going to run again"She stated, she knew him, knew exactly what he would do. "He wont contact us untill he's safe"
