Jack grumbled a few curse words under his breath, practically slamming the Evo's door shut with a force that would normally make him cringe. It was Brian who had forgotten to deliver some parts, shit, he didn't even work here anymore, and now he was late because of Brian's mistake instead of on time like he had been.
Heading toward the garage with a slight jog, he fully expected to find Faye waiting in the office, maybe with a little scowl on her face, but what he didn't expect to find was her cowering against the wall, a damn imitating looking Dom looming over her.
"Holy shit." He breathed out, closing the distance between him and the imposing figure his brother called a friend and dropped a hand on Dom's shoulder, forcing him to turn away from Faye. "What the hell is this, man? You picking on girls now?"

Faye had no idea how she had ended up in this situation, with her back pressed agaisnt the wall and Dom's hand resting at the side of her head. With furrowed brow she looked at him, trying not to let the fear show in her eyes, licking her lips she breathed in desperatly trying to get some air into her lungs.
"I dont use excuses for anything" She hissed, how dare he say anything to her, he didnt know her, didnt know half the crap she had been through, licking her lips she let out a releived breath at the sound of Jack. When he pull Dom around Faye took the opportunity to slide from behind him, and let out a shaky breath.

Dom looked at Jack and snorted, "She and I were just coming to an understanding. You know how it is with girls, they have to know better then everyone else," he looked at Faye smirking.
Now he knew how to get the girl to get in line when he wanted, intimidation was going to go along way. He glanced Jack over easily walking out of the others grip as he headed back into the office to finish the paperwork that buster had left him.

"Yeah? Maybe you should start wearing a skirt than, too, sweetheart. Might wanna shave your legs first, though." He responded on a half amused huff before he turned towards the still shaken up looking Faye. He should have known doing this errand now would cause someone shit, but he didn't think he'd find Dom going at Faye's throat when he'd come back to the garage.
"You ok, baby?" He mumbled, resting a hand against her cheek, his thumb brushing gently over the skin while he gave her a soft smile.

Anger rippled through Dom, but he chose to ignore it, he'd pound the kid later. For right now, he'd leave him in piece to comfort Faye who was the one who hadn't taken his advice and left.
If she had left, Dom wouldn't have almost killed her. But then again he also wouldn't have found out how to pull her in line like all the others, he looked at the paperwork and sighed. He flopped back down into his chair and waited for Jack to come storming into the office, with his pants all in a bundle about how he shouldn't frighten his lawyer girlfriend.

It had gone out of the window, everything that Walter had taught her, when it came down to it she had just froze, compleatly froze, she had stood and took every harsh and hateful word thrown in her direction, and crazy enough some part of her had agreed with him. Licking her lips she snapped herself out of it, partly, any way. Her dark eyes turned to Jack and she numbly nodded her head,
"Yea" Her voice was shaky, but it held, which was better then she was doing. She smoothed her hand down her outfit, and through her hair, she shook her head and slid herself away from the wall, heaving in a deep breath as she tried to push the images of Tristan from her eyes.

"Right. I'll be right back.." He mumbled before he turned around, not waiting for a further response from her when he headed toward the office. Despite not having been here or knowing what had went down, he'd seen enough. Dom had gone too far and unlike his brother, he didn't hold much respect, or was it fear? for the so called 'king of the streets'. The fact that Dom could most likely easily rearrange his face was simply just to be ignored.
With his hands shoved in his pockets, his eyes wandered over the strewn out mess of paperwork Brian had created these past months. In any other situation, the amount Dom still had to plow through would have amused him, especially since he himself had nothing to do with it anymore, but at the moment he couldn't bring himself to care or even smirk.
"So. You feel like a man now? Or are you just PMSing?"

Dom looked at Jack and gave him a very passive face, "I told your lawyer skirt to leave, that neither you or Buster were her. She didn't listen because when does your skirt ever listen. Of course she bit her tongue and helped out with the shit Buster left. Until she decided she needed to say some shit, push a few buttons, and then got all freaked out when I went off. You know I'm surprised, for a chick who talks some tough shit, she shakes like a dog when you get too close."
He was waiting, just once excuse to release a pounding on the kid.

Jack scoffed, a hardly amused smirk tugging at the corner of his mouth. "I'm sure this would all be very fascinating if I actually gave a shit, but next time you can keep your holier than thou bullshit to yourself. You don't ever fucking threaten her like that, comprendre?"
If he had been wise enough, he would have left it at that, but with his mouth working faster than his brain, his next words already left his mouth loud and clear before the saying 'like a red rag to a bull' could even enter his mind.
"I'm surprised Letty stuck by your sorry ass as long as she has."

All of the anger surged up all at once, he was already on his feet, one fist slamming into Jack before the chair he had been sitting on, clattered to the ground.
Dom was furious, Letty was a sore subject for him. Most everyone had gotten the silent memo not to bring her up around him. But no, there were two people that had mentioned her name within the past hour. Both of them saying they weren't suprised that she left. Neither one of them having been around when everything had started crumbling around him. He was pissed, he was the one that had owned this garage, he earned the garage just like he had earned the title of king of the streets.
Dom kept his family safe he had done everything he had to to make sure his sister got out and made something of herself. Who were these punks to even think that he believed himself better then everyone, he had risked going to prison and almost made it there again for his family. These two weren't "family" by his choice, if it was up to him they would never have come into his life.
His fist came down once more as a snarl left his lips, "Watch your fucking mouth O'Conner."

Blood flowed freely over his mouth and chin while Jack made a futile attempt to swipe some of it away with the back of one hand, using the other to steady himself against the desk. Cashing in two painful fists to the face and possibly a broken nose for mentioning Letty really wasn't one of his smartest or most pleasant moves today. If only he hadn't done those fucking errands for this garage he didn't even work at anymore. He would've been here on time, Faye and Dom wouldn't have gotten in to a cat fight and he'd still have his face in tact.
Spitting some blood out on the floor, he lifted his free hand up to feel whether his nose actually was broken before he slowly started chuckling. "Didn't know I could get you all hot and bothered like that, Dom...Oh, fuck.." He groaned, furrowing his brow when his pounding brain no longer agreed with his actions.

From the garage door loud clapping could be heard when Brian entered the garage with a mixture of a scoul and a mock grin. "Is there anybody around you haven't pissed off yet, Jack?" He leaned against the wall next to the door just to make sure they both knew he didn't want to get into their little tossing of the fists.
He had just come by to pick up some parts to deliver to another garage in exchange for some Recaro seats.

"Sorry Jack, you ain't my type," Dom said biting back the urge to keep pounding the kid into the ground.
He turned and looked at Brian, "Paperwork is almost done, and next time don't wait until I come back till you do inventory," Dom said pointing a finger at his brother in law, "And don't leave me with your brother's skirt. I ain't dealing with her shit again."

Jack tilted his head back, pinching the bridge of his nose in an attempt to stop the bleeding and seemingly succeeding at it.
"Who says he didn't piss me off first?" He muttered with his head still slightly tilted back, all too aware of what the situation looked like. After all, he was the one with the bleeding nose while Dom didn't even have as much as a scratch on him. Not that he had actually made any attempt yet to take a physical shot at Dom, rather than a verbal one.
"I know this may be hard to comprehend for you, Dom, but the skirt has a name.." He grumbled the remembrance of her still waiting in the workshop causing the muscles in his jaws to tense involuntarily while he squeezed his eyes shut for just a second. This was just... peachy. Not quite how he pictured today to go.
For lack of anything better, he moved his hand from his nose, using the hem of his sleeve to wipe away at the remaining blood on his lips and chin, glad that he was at least wearing a dark coloured one to cover the stains.
With an unamused look on his face, he pushed past Brian when he headed out of the office, soon finding Faye in almost the same spot as he had left her.
"You ready to go?"

Brian raised his hands in defense. "Nobody ever showed me how to do this stuff...I learned a different trade. Plus Rome went through the inventory once." Nodding towards Faye he added. "I really don't get you two."
He raised his brows at Jack. His brother was simply unbeleivable. "Why would you pick a fight with Dom? You can only loose." Then again he would have done the same thing if he was scaring Mia.

"We have a mutual dislike of one another," Dom said thinly, "I know you leaned a different trade, but I promise it ain't that hard."
Dom looked over Brian's shoulder for a moment and watched Jack act as if he hadn't just gotten punched in the nose twice. Dom would have to try harder to bash the kids face in next time when he said something stupid. Shaking his head Dom turned and looked around for the chair, upon finding it he walked over and pulled the chair back upright and pushed it under the table once more. He looked at the finished piles of paperwork and rubbed his neck, it was months worth of stuff that hadn't gotten done.
"Buster, come over here so I can teach you how to do this shit."

Brian walked towards Dom passing his brother and briefly asked. "Are you okay?" He figured that Jack would be okay except for his hurt pride and a very sore nose.
Then he walked towards Dom and leaned on the wall next to the piles. He really didn't want to sit through a lenghty explanation. "Did you really have to bash in his nose?" He wondered.

"He's lucky that's all I hit," Dom said looking at Brian with an expression that clearly read 'Let it go.'
Shaking his head he picked up a receipt and the inventory list, "I'm gonna make this as easy as possible. You sell something, you put a mark next to the thing on the inventory list. Easy as that."

"I thought I did that?" Brian bent forward wrinkling his brow. "Mostly but you know other people helped out,too." he found the whole task annoying. "You know why I became a field agent? Cause I tried to do as little paperwork as possible."

"Well you ain't a cop or a fed any more Brian. You're running my garage, do the paperwork as you go. I ain't doing it all for you," Dom said shaking his head.
He looked at the door for a moment, "So how many people you got working here anyway? I know you and Rome," he asked looking back at his brother-in-law.
