Somewhere he could hear voices but wasn't sure whether he was dreaming or really heard them. Brian was too damn tired to oepn even one eye. If nobody was screaming it probably meant that everything was okay. So rolled over to his side and passed out again.

Letty felt a twitch in her stomach, she was so eager to see O'conner Junior. She wondered what eyes and skin color he has, and kept repeating his name in her heart. Tyler. It was obvious that this baby is adorable, and inherited very good-looking genes from both of his parents.

"Can't wait to see the little fella." She whispered as Mia led her up the stairs and down the hall. The second floor had a peaceful, sleepy atmosphere and Letty didn't want to wake anyone up. Especially not Dom, if he was even there.

Mia smiled as she led Letty into Tylers room, she gestured for the other woman to be quite, but she knew she would already know it, smieling she pushed open the door, alllowing Letty to enter the room and see her nephew for the first time.

The child, lying peacefully in his crib, was one of the most beautiful sights Letty's eyes had ever encountered. Tears of joy rose in her eyes as she examined the little creature from top to bottom, watching his little chest going up and down with every breath he took.

It was love in first sight, the commitment she felt only from looking at him built a lump in her throat, and she tried to fight it away instead of crying. She pressed her fingertips into her eyes and saw black holes when she opened them again, overwhelmed by the whole situation.

"Thanks for making me a happy aunt." Letty said and placed her hand on Mia's lower back. She simply couldn't take her eyes away from this little brat, and could imagine herself present throughout his whole life. Because after all, this is what they was - even though they weren't blood-related - family.

Mia smiled, her own emotions swelling as she saw the emotion swimming in her normally composed friends, eyes. She stepped forward, watching her friend with interest and intreigue, she licked her lips wrapping her arms around her friends, no her sisters shoulders,hugging her tight to her still slightly large frame.

"Your gonna spoil him rotten arnt you" She laughed, already knowing what was going to happen, her little boy was going to be doted on by everyone, Letty, Dom, she could already see Jack with him, the love in his eyes that day at the hospital had taken her breath away.

Letty smirked and wiped off a single tear that was starting to drop underneath her lower lashline.

"Actually, I was thinking of his 17th birthday, and what kind of car I should get him." She said fluently, still maintaining a low voice.It was so typical, and almost clear that this child was born to drive. That's how they all were, infected with that "disease", the need for speed.

She hoped Tyler would have better life, she hoped he'd work a decent job - and not be a cop or a delinquent. Because she had learned that these two jobs are crappy thanks to Dom and Brian's complicated relationship. She hoped he wouldn't have to face all the conflicts they had to face. She wished she could take in right there and then all the suffering he'd go through in his life. Because he was perfect, and he deserved the perfect life.

"Things would get better real soon. I can feel it." She whispered and gave Mia a hopeful look, her eyes glistening silently.

About half an hour later Brian woke up. It took him a moment to figure out where he was and what had happened. Then he remembered tyler and made his way up the stairs with quicks steps just to find Letty there with Mia and their son.
He hugged her from behind without warning.
"Hmmm, Letty."

Dom parked a block away from the house, in deference for the fact that he was still being looked for, and walked in from the back door, through the kitchen. When he got inside, he realized that maybe he should have driven by first, to see who was there, because Mia and Tyler were there, along with Brian and the one person that he both was desperate to see and equally desperate to avoid: Letty.

"Good morning," he rumbled awkwardly, for a moment getting ready to turn tail and leave. But then he remembered that this was his house, even if he didn't live there all the time anymore, and he had a right to be in his own damn living room. He refused to make things awkward for the new mom and her baby, but he wasn't going to back down from coming to see his family.
