If its one thing that Amira had learned growing up, it was to know when to ask for help. It could save a life. Avoid a major disaster. But mostly save a life and that's what it had ultimately come down to. She needed to save her own life and stop herself from starving. She was pouring every cent she had into that rathole apartment she had. Enough was enough. She needed to be saved from the cockroaches she currently shared a lease with.

She had heard rumors down at last night's races. Something about Brian and Mia moving in together. Meaning there was a vacancy at Brian's old place. Now all she had to do was convince Brian's roommates that she'll be the perfect roommate.

Amira smirked, realizing that the last time she shared a house with someone she ended up putting a 2x4 upside their head. It didn't really matter that it was her brother and that the fight was completely his fault. What mattered was that she learned her lesson and was now here to give it another try. But she hadn't really calculated how that would fit into her current life. All she was seeing right now was dollars and cents.

She found the front door unlocked and let herself in, finding the house quiet and still. She held a flower pot in her arms, something she had swiped off the neighbors porch. An attempt to assimilate into their life. An attempt to have one of her own.

Ami heard noises towards the back of the house and she began to make her way towards it. As she walked through the house, she let the stolen flowerpot hang loosely from one hand while she ran the other one smoothly over the bare furniture that filled the house.

She pictured Angel making his way through the house also. Checking every nook and cranny. Checking Brian's very existence. She frowned, imagining what Angel would think when he found out about Brian moving in with Mia. Would that complicate things or just sweeten the deal?

As she approached the back of the house, she shaded her eyes from the intrusive sun that was making itself present. "Hey," she shouted into the backyard, not really being able to see who was out there because of it.

In the backyard Brian found Busters leash and ball. Two things he really needed. With the ball in hand he walked towards the porch to tell Jack that it was time to leave because Mia was waiting for them when he suddenly heard somebody shout hello.

Surprise he jumped onto the porch and poked his head into the living room where he found a woman.
For a brief moment he couldn't place her mostly because the last place he ever expected to see that woman was at his own place. Then it hit him. There in front of him stood the woman he was investigating against.

"Hey, Amira. What are you doing here?" he gathered himself.

She was surprised to find Brian at the house, she figured he was long gone. "Hey Susie homemaker," she said, throwing a smile his way. She pushed the flower pot towards him, wiping her hands on the back of her low slung jeans.

"Heard you were finally walking into the light. So I came by to drop off a house warming gift," she said, laughing lightly at her save. "Where is everyone? I expected this house to be busting at the seams with the hustle and bustle of people moving."

Brian reached for the plant pot and looked at the flowers. "Thanks."
The expression on his face reveiled obvious confusion. "Huh? Where did you hear that?"
Was the word spreading that fast? He hadn't told anybody but his brother and Mia and the team that he was moving.
"I'm just grabbing a few bits and pieces here. I'm pretty much done. What are you doing here? That's a surprise."
Hopefully he didn't sound too bold.

Jack jogged down the stairs with an irritated look on his face. "Dude, I can't find that damn leash anywhere so you might just wanna buy a..." He stopped half way through his sentence, noticing that Brian had already found it and that they had a visitor. One that he hadn't expected to see in this house in a million years.

He smirked at the gifted flower pot and then at Amira. "Nice gift. I guess neighbors can come in handy for just about anything, huh?" He said as he sank down on the couch and raised an eyebrow at Brian's question. That was a damn good one. What was she doing here?

Dani had a ticket for illegal exhaust system on her car that needed be signed by a mechanic of some sort. The person that Dani knew who would know anything about her car other than her brother Vince was Brian.

Showing up at his house she knocked on the door but no one answered, letting herself in she noticed that back porch door was open, walking toward the door Buster came running in toward her. "Hey Boy" she said as she patted him.

As she got to the door way she saw Amira, Jack and Brian all hanging out. "Hey Chica hows it going?" she muttered to Amira as she looked at Jack who was check Amira out. She shook her head then handed the paper to Brian "Tell me that this is BS?"

Momentarily distracted by Dani Brian took the ticket.
"What are you doing here, Dani?" He looked at the open porch door.
Maybe it was a good thing he was moving out. This way he wouldn't get caught in between Jack and his ladies.
The ticket clearly stated what the problem was.
"I'm sorry, girl, but this is valid. You have to change your exhaust and have a mechanic sign this ticket and take it back to a station."
Then he turned his attention to Amira again.

Dani had no clue why she was there but she had to make some kind of excuse. "I am here to visit you Brian." She laughed to her answer then referring back to the ticket, "You know that exhaust on my car I really don't get how it is illegal, V installed it himself." she muttered sounding annoyed.

She glanced over at Jack crossing her arms while leaning up along the porch ignoring Jack, as Buster sat at her feet.

"Vince usually doesn't care if the mods are lagal or not. I've told a couple of times. But, you know, dani, street racing is illegal,too." he smirked.
It was so obvious that she wasn't here to see him but Jack.

The moment he heard Dani's voice, Jack diverted his attention from Amira to Dani. Today seemed to be full of surprise visits, though he definitely wasn't protesting against Dani's.

While he watched her talk to Brian, he couldn't help the amused smirk that crept up his face when he noticed that she was just plain ignoring him. Women and their games.

He shook his head slightly, wiping the smirk off his face before he got up and made his way over to them. "So big bro got you in to trouble? I know what that's like." He shot Dani a wink while he clapped his brother's shoulder. "Anything I can do to help?"

Brian rolled his eyes with a slight smile at Jack's comment. His brother knew how bad he felt about dragging him into the whole 'breaking out Dom' action and apparently had fun playing it up.
"Yeah, yeah, Jack." He muttered.

Even though he was pretty eager to know why Amira showed up he leaned back a bit to watch Jack's and Dani's interaction with amusement.

Dani stood there trying to ignore Jack until he showed her that he wanted to see her. She continued to talk to Brian. "Vince usually takes my car to mechanic but since no one know where he is, I don't know who to bring it to other than Dom." She shrugged her shoulders.

Dani couldn't help to smile at Jack after a while. But she still wasn't going to do anything until he did.

Amira nodded in Daniella's direction, listening to Brian and her go back and forth. She winced on the inside as Vince's name came up now and again, and she had to stop herself from asking them where the hell he was. She admitted it, he had gotten under her skin. Their brief half-assed attempt at a relationship was more than enough to have her worried about why he just up and disappeared. She shook her head to clear the thoughts out of it and got herself back on track- moving in.

She leaned towards Jack and cocked an eyebrow. "How much trouble do you think we can get into now that Bri's moving in with Mi?" She threw his way, wondering how much hinting she would have to do in order to get her in.

Jack had been a little preoccupied with wondering what the hell was up with Dani and her little ignoring games, that he'd completely forgotten about Amira presence. The question why she was even here, still seemed to remain unanswered.

He glanced at Amira for a second and furrowed his brow at her question. "Huh? We, as in you and I? Am I missing something here?"

He shook his head at Dani, leaving her to discuss whatever she had with Brian, while he turned his full attention on Amira and nodded towards her 'moving house gift'. "Mind telling me what's really on your agenda? I doubt you came by just to drop our neighbor's plants off." He gave her a sarcastic smile and patted her shoulder. "Although it's greatly appreciated. Really."

Ami sighed. "So smooth, Jack. The ladies must be falling all over you," she said. She hated the fact that she was practically asking for a handout, but it was the only thing she could think of to do in the situation. "Since Brian's moving out, I figured you might need a new roommate. The cockroaches in my place don't leave any hot water for me in the morning," she said, trying to mask her embarrassment with humor.

At first Brian thought it would be a great idea if one person living in his place might actually be paying rent but when he remember who Amira was and that he was supposed to be investigating against her he froze.
Then again if she was living with Jack it might be a lot easier to find out who she actually was but also a little dangerous for Jack.
Brian raised his eyebrows and said.
"Up to you, Jack."
He would have a word with him later.
"Maybe we can talk about it tonight and then give Amira a call."
He took the plant out of his hands and smiled at Amira.
"Nice."

Jack furrowed his brow like he'd just heard her speak Chinese. Did he actually hear that right? "You're kidding. You wanna move in? Here?"

He eyed her for a moment while he slowly began to smirk. Knowing who she was, it was quite amusing to see her asking them for a favor like this. It clearly wasn't easy for her.

He nodded at Brian's words and shrugged. "Guess we'll have to get back to you on that one, chica."

She slapped a smile on her face and sighed. "Fine.... I guess you two should get a say in all of this," she said, rolling her eyes and shrugging. "So what else is going on around here?"
