He walked up to the little house, noting that there was a car out back, but no lights.

"Jack! Jackie!" He pounded on the door and then sighed when he got no answer. That must have been Jack's other car, or Brian's. This bullshit was catching apparently. He'd heard that Brian was in jail, and come out here to see what the hell was going on, and there was no one here. He walked around to the back and pushed the door open, going into the kitchen and getting some food. He might as well eat while he was waiting.

Amira stood up from the bed, stretching her body out. It was a rough one last night at work. They were swamped and she didn't even make it back to the house until almost one in the morning. She realized that she had gone soft when she had to be in bed before the sun came up, but being legit and keeping a job meant maintaining certain hours- something she was just gonna have to get used to.

She slipped into her flip flops before heading to the door and heading downstairs for some breakfast. As she almost placed her foot on the first step, she heard a voice as the back door opened. "Jackie." She smirked, laughing on the inside as the male voice made fun of Jack's name.

Then she frowned. The voice wasn't familiar and bells and whistles went off in her head. She instinctively drew her hand to the small of her backside for a gun but found it empty. Ami resorted to retrieving the small knife she usually kept stashed in her boots and made her way silently downstairs.

During her descent, all she could picture was someone breaking in to hurt Jack and the rest of the house because of her ties to Angel and the family business. She shuddered at the thought and instead gripped her knife as she got closer to the kitchen.

But what she found amused her. "Take whatever you want, but please don't hurt the fridge," she said, feigning fear, as she found a man head first in the fridge.

At the unfamiliar voice, Rome stood slowly, holding the leftover sub sandwich out with him.

"I would never hurt the fridge; it gives me food." He took a bite as he looked her up and down. She was NICE. "What're you doing in Brian's house?"

She smirked at his comment. "No.... the question is what are you doing in Jack's house?" She retorted, placing her knife down on the kitchen table. Clearly this guy knew the O'Conner brothers. She breathed a sigh of relief as she realized that the man was not after her.

"I live here but you... not so much," she replied, crossing her arms over her chest and standing her ground.

He took another bite from the sandwich and leaned back against the counter. "You Jackie's girl? He's finally moving up in the world if you is. And no, I don't live here; I thought Brian still did though, before he went away."

Ami scoffed. "Jack's girl?!?! Have you met Jack? Have you seen me?" She said. She dropped her stance and relaxed, because he clearly wasn't going nowhere until he finished his sandwich. "Brian moved out a while ago, he's living his girl Mia. And where did he go? I know I haven't seen him for a while but he's probably around."

"Mia? Man, he's still sniffin' her? anyway, I put my ear to the ground, heard he's in lockup for something. Heard the name Toretto thrown around too. Don't know the guy, but he must be somethin' if Brian let himself get arrested over him."

He reached back into the fridge for the jug of juice that was about half-full, swilling it down.

"Brian? Are we talking about the same straight-edged Brian?" Amira said, her face in utter shock. She cocked her head to the side, mad at the fact that she had no clue what was currently going on around her. She had been so caught up at work that she had been ignoring all those around her.

"Toretto. All I've heard is that he's some sort of racer. Supposedly was real good until sh*t went south with him and his crew. Do you think we'll need to start getting the bail money together?"

"Was hoping to talk to Jack, but he ain't here... Probably off with Mia, since Brian's not there. Jack was always like that though... always helpin' out family, even if they ain't really his." He moved around the woman, casually swiping the little knife into his pocket as he grabbed a bag of chips and went into the living room, turning on the tv as he sat on the couch.

Faye laughed softly as Jack pulled her to his chest, things were still confussing and she had yet to talk to Ashton, but she was going to at some point. She tip toed, kissing his cheek and he unlocked the door. They had been out driving and had ended up down at the beach, simply having a good and relaxing.

"Thanks for tonight, i needed it, didnt think turning up on your doorstep earlier, would have ended up with me here" She laughed licking her lips at some of the crazy things she had done, she would blame it on the vodka.

She entered the house first, running a hand through her hair, her head was slightly fuzzy, yea, she would deffiently blame that one on the alchol, her hand was still in Jacks as he entered behind her, shooving the door shut behind her, she turned and her heart stoppped in her throat.

"O hi" She stepped back into Jack, furrowing her brow at the strange man in the living room.

"You cain't be Jackie's girl either..." Rome said happily as he continued to flip channels and saw his pseudo-little brother behind her. "Movin' up in the world, hey Jackie? Hangin' wit' honeys!"

He grinned engagingly at the woman. "I'm Roman Pearce, but you can call me Rome. Not to sound sexist, but can anyone cook in this house?"

Faye raised her brow, turning to look over at Jack, she turned back to Rome "Er kinda am"She laughed they hadnt actually talked about it but thats what they were, or what they were gonna be, she hoped.

"And yea, actutually i can, but how do you guys know each other"She questioned with another raised brow.

Rome laughed loudly. "You never heard where Jackie's from? I grew up wit' his brother. Heard about the problems, packed up. You do look familiar though, Mami. Ever ran East Coast way? 'Round about Tej's garage? Or the Roman Theatre?"

Faye nodded her head "Yea iv not been around long enough to find all that stuff out yet" She gave him a brilliant smile. "But yea, Tej has seen my car a lot of times"She laughed heading towards the kitchen.

"So food, anyting in particular guys"She questioned

"And you don't remember me? I'm hurt!" he said, getting up. He had worn a jacket over his usual attire and tossed the thing at a coat-rack. "I worked on your car, girl, I'd remember it and you anywhere!" He moved into the kitchen behind her, ignoring Jack for the moment. This was important, someone had forgotten him.

"Red Honda Civic, the brakes went out on you about six months ago, and you were by Tej's doin' something. I fixed your brakes and you don't even remember me? I'm devastated!" He wiped an imaginary tear from his eye and moved into the kitchen, pulling out something else that looked like a sandwich.

"As for food, I'm hongry. Anythin' will do for me."

Faye furrowed her brow in amusment, she bit her lip looking at the man in front of her. "Yea i er just got out of the hospital and i was late for my first day back, the brakes went out on me"She shook her head, that day, hell that year had been a very bad year.

"I remember you now"She laughed turning to the kitchen "Im terrible with names and faces"She eyed the cupboards and wondered what Jack actually had in, she moved from one cupboard to the next, pulling out ingreidents as she went, it was more morning then night, might as well make breakfast.

"Hey man, where's the dog? Long as I known you Jack, you've had a dog, one kind or another." He looked around. "Did it just die or somethin'?"

Faye laughed at the comment, another thing she didnt know, she went about making the breakfast, bacon, sausage, french toast, egg, the whole nine yards. She finsihed and plated up.

"Eat up boys"She smiled over at the two of them.

"Food!" Rome crowed, sitting down immediately and then smiling at the first bite. "Again, not to sound sexist, but damn!" He finished up his plate in short order and grinned up at her.

"If Jackie don't appreciate you, you know where to go right, sweetness?"

Faye laughed looking over at Jack, her brow raised "I deffiently do"she laugehd looking over at him.

"But then hes already got one guys ass to woop"she rolled her eyes pulling a water to her, hopeing to cancel down the alchol she had consumeed earlier.
