Dom waited until Mia took laundry upstairs and went out to do some shopping before he cornered Brian; not that hard to corner a guy who was stuck on the couch for 6 weeks, but he still managed it.
"Yo never asked my permission, O'Conner," he said, sitting so that he blocked the tv from view, something he'd learned to do when he wanted Vince or Leon to listen to him.

Brian had been watching the weather forecast. Not that it made any difference to him but he still didn't appreciate somebody blocking his view. Distracted he looked up at Dom's bulky figure and raised his eyebrows. "Huh? Permission for what?" Did he have to ask permission to use exchange Dom's old TV for his own better one?

"You must be more into the meds than I thought, Brian," Dom said, his face lighting with a grin, even though he wanted to be pissed. "You asked my sister to marry you in the middle of Lompoc Visiting Center. Do yu realise how stupid that was? And you didn't ask me if you could ask her" he snapped, trying to get himself revved up, to scare the blonde.

Brian watched him and sat up a little straighter on the sofa. It was never good when Dom got angry and Brian had to admit this was actually a reason to get angry. "I'm sorry. I had no idea where you were and it's not like you would have come by while I was in Lompoc anyway. I could have stayed in there for years and this was important to me." How would he explain the bad timing though. Brian took a deep breath. "I love Mia and I needed her to know how serious I am about her. If you have a problem with that I really don't understand you, bro! You should be happy!"

"I'm not really mad that you asked her, Brian," he said finally, looking down at his hands, moving them in patterns as he tried to find his words.
"I'm pissed that you asked her there, though! Man, Mia's had her proposal lined up in her head for her entire life since she figured out what it was! And you ask her in front of guards and shit?! And you heard Braga in there! He knows, too! That was what was stupid."

Brian thought that it was actually a really soft side of Dom to be worried about how Mia would want her proposal. He couldn't suppress a slight smile. "I know that it wasn't picture perfect but it came from the bottom of my heart and I think that's what matters." He looked at him and hoped Dom would see it the same way. "I didn't even know that Braga paid the guards in there when I asked her. Man, listen, I'm sorry but you know what it's like in there. Makes you go insane!"

"Yeah, and Mia already hit me for getting mad about it, and I know her being a target is partly because of me, but did you HAVE to ask her there, buster? And it might not have been Braga... other people in there still have outside ties, you know, and I know you put some of them away." He sighed and looked down, not entirely comfortable with this touchy-feely shit.
"Guess, I gotta say welcome to the family, huh? And damn is that the most insane comment to come out of my mouth?!" He threw a pillow at Brian before wishing for a cigarette again; this emotional shit was a little too heavy.

Quickly he caught the pillow and shoved it behind his back. He stuck his finger in his ear and turned it. "Huh? Did you just say something?" He grinned. Then he got up and slapped Dom on the shoulder. "Thank you, man."
For a moment he got serious again. "You know, no matter what I said in there, you and me aren't exactly the safest company your sister could hang around with. But she chose to do so....well, at least she chose to be with me, she can't help being your sister."

"Yeah, she's a Toretto, allright." he shook his head. "You on too many meds for a beer?"

"I'm not on anything anymore, bro. Beer is my medication now." He laughed. "But only if it's a Corona."

Mia came back into the house arms loaded with groceries, she raised her brow at the two men in the living room, before her gaze travelled over to her brother.
"Did i miss something"She questioned with a raised brow, moving so she was balancing the bags more easily.

Both guys turned their heads to see her in the door with full grovery bags.
Brian took a sip from the corona that Dom handed him and smirked. "Dom just congratulated me on our engagement."
he shot a glance at his friend.
Then he carefully pushed himself off the sofa and took one of the grocery bags.
"And you know what?" A quick kiss on her cheek followed. "I think it's time for me to get out of the house. How do you feel about going ring-shopping?"

Mia raised a brow "I think you can put down the bag"she said, sliding agasint him to take it back from him.
"Heavy lifting is a no no"She smiled over at her brother with a raised brow "o really"She questioned nodding her head, she could just imagine that.
At the mention of ring shopping a smile spread across her face, she nodded her head "Only if you feel up to it, and i drive"she stated serioulsy heading into the kicthen to drop the bags onto the counter.
"And we stop for food and if you feel weak or wuzzy you tell me and we head home ok" she looked over at him realizing she was sounding like the worried nurse she was.

Brian raised his brows, gave her a mock nod at every advice she gave him and then handed the bag to Dom. "There you go, the nurse said heavy lifting is a no no."
He jingled the keys after taking the out of his pocket. "But my Skyline misses me!"
Then he wrapped and arm around her shoulder and said. "Let's go, I'm starving."

"Bring me back something to eat!" Dom called as they left the house, laughing at Brian's comment about how his Skyline missed him. Thankfully Rome had returned the Skyline to its owner.

"Sure, bro. What do you want?" Brian was going to ask Dom to come along for some food. Unfortunately it wasn't a good idea for him to walk around in LA in bright daylight.
He placed his hand on Mia's back and followed her to the door. "Let's go do what we should have a long time ago!"

Mia smiled and wrapped her arm around him, she followed him down to his car, sliding into the driveing seat before turning to him.
"So where to"she questioned as she started the engine and allowed it to rev beneath her.

brian let his gaze wander along the side of his car. He couldn't help but smile at its outline. The ex-cop just couldn't wait to drive it. "C'mon, Mia. Let me drive, please!" When she simply sat in the drivers seat brian sighed and carefully lowered himself into the passenger seat. Even though it had been 6 weeks since the operation he still couldn't make any fast movements without hurting. "Santa Monica."

"Food then shopping"
