Chapter Thirty-Three“You gonna stick by me?” “Maybe…” ** “What the fuck does Letty think she’s doing?” I wondered when I saw her walking up to Amber and me… I tried to ignore her, tried to act like she was just some random girl… But I couldn’t. Especially when she called me a bastard… “Mia tell her to cause a scene or some shit like that?” “I said we need to talk, Dom,” she growled at me. “Now.” I hesitated for half a second, wondering how long she and Leon had stuck around after the race… I hadn’t seen them at all, but… God, I hoped Letty hadn’t seen me and Amber… If she had, I was gonna have even more explaining to do… I didn’t even want to think about what that scene would’ve looked like to her… Finally I decided to just go with my first thought - Letty was playing the same game that we all were…I’d play along with her. “I don’t have time for your shit right now, Letty,” I growled back at her. “I’m busy.” Almost before the words were out of my mouth, I was wishing I could take them back. The look in Letty’s eyes…it was like she became a completely different person in that split second…someone I didn’t know at all. “That was the wrong fucking thing to say to me, Dom,” she muttered before turning to Amber. “So tell me, bitch, how’s it feel to get fingered in front of the entire fucking world?” Letty asked, her face completely calm. “Was it good for you?” “Excuse me?” Amber replied, standing up, looking like she couldn’t believe what she’d just heard. “What do you think you’re doing, Letty?” I sighed. “I’m not talking to you, Dom. I don’t have time for your shit right now. I’m busy,” she yelled, getting right up in my face. All of a sudden, Leon was there, dragging Letty away from me. “You need to cut this shit!” he yelled, pushing her out the front door. I could still hear her screaming, even through the closed door. What killed me was that I had to act like I didn’t care at all…had to go back to groping Amber and putting on a show for everyone. I kept expecting to hear the squealing of tires as Leon and Letty drove off, but when the screaming finally stopped, there was nothing. |
