Hi! My name is Athena Vera Ortiz. Yep you heard it right Ortiz. Letty Ortiz is my older sister.. I'm 15 and I guess you could say I'm always in trouble. I went to juvie when I was 12 for a year for Assault. I don't really talk about it. I know you may think my name is kinda 'weird' but I like. Athena for the goddess of war. Vera is the truth in latin.

Everyone calls me Tiny because of my height. I'm 4 foot 10 inches (4'10) and also because I'm the youngest of Toretto's team.. I don't mind the Nickname i actually like it and it fits me. I mean yeah i am tiny but im also quick on my feet and can fight well.

I can also keep up with Domiinic Toretto. Between me and him when we race it's ALWAYS a tie.

This is my story and how I feel in love with the enemy.

How a cop destroyed my home.

How I changed.

My sister letty is nine (9) Years older than me. I just turned 15 a few weeks ago. My mom died when I was 2 and my sister was 11. She's had an infection with cars since she was 10. But with cars I feel at peace. When my mom died my dad became abusive to me and Letty. Then when she was 16 I was 7 and she started living with the Torettos. I started driving by then. Yeah at 7. I mean I love cars.

Well one with my story. Full of heartache, love, passion, Romance, anger, betrayal, lies, and most of all family.


ATENA'S POV

Right now I'm at Toretto cafe with Mia and Doms in the Office.

Then the familiar Red truck pulled up.

"Oh Mia Lover boys here" I teased Mia as she shot me a glare. I put my hands in the air witha chuckle.

He walked in and Mia asked even tho she knew the answer.

"Tuna on white, No crust Right?"

"I dont know how is it?" He asked her with a smirk as i leanded on the counter top.

"You been coming in here for the ast 3 weeks asking Mia 'How the tuna is'. Now it was crappy yesterday, Crappy the day before and guess what, It hasnt changed because she doesnt know how to make tuna'" i shot at him. I knew Mia was glaring at me

"Ill take the tuna then" He said with a smile towards Mia i felt bad for the guy.

"No crust like always" Mia asked

"No crust" The blonde says.

"Alright. Tiny can you grab him a Pepsi from the back?" she asked me. I nodded and went to the back to grab one.

When i walked up front Mia sat his Sandwhich down and i handed him the Pepsi and said

"When you die ill make sure to put 'Death by hazardous tuna sandwhich'. "

"Tiny!"Mia scolded me while the guy just chuckled. I just shrugged and went back to my collage work. Yes collage im really smart i guess.

After a few minutes i heard the others pull up. *This will be fun*

I could see vince getting rilled up while Letty was trying to Defuse the situation. Then they walked in. Mia spoke first

"What's up guys. How you doing?"

"How yuh living girl?" She asked Mia then she turned to me "Hey sissy how yuh fellin?" She felt my head.

"Im good a little nauseated this morning but i took my meds" She nodded then walked toward doms office. Thats another thing i have Stage 1 Leukimia Cancer. Thankfully i havent lost my hair yet. But the doctors say i shouldnt.

Vince and Blondie were having a staring contest i think.

"Vince" Mia said trying to cut the thick ass tension. She had to yell, "Vince"

"What?" Vince finally looked at her.

"Can i get you something?" She asked

"You look good " he said lookin he rup and down as the blonde glared at him. "You ight today Tiny"

"Im good V" I assured him with a smile.

"Thanks Mia, See you tomorrow. Bye Tiny." The blonde says.

"Bye Hazard boy." I waved at him. But ofc Vince

"Tomorrow..........Tomorrw" He wispered to himself.

"Dont Vince" I warned him. But ofc hes stubborn as hell.

"Yo! Why dont you try somewhere else from now on, like a Fat burger? You can get a cheese burger and Fries for $1.99!" Vince yelled as he continues to follow and look at brian.

"I like the tuna here" He argued

"Bullshit Ass hole No one likes the tuna here" I couldnt agrue with Vince on that one by then i was infront of the counter. Its also me or Dom breaking up fights.

"Yeah well, I do" Blondie says as he looks at Vince.

I tuned around to get my drink off the counter and then mia said

"Jesus Christ! Dom can you get out there please? Im sick of this shit!" I turned back around and got annoyed so i started walking out there. I heard Dom say

"Whatd you put in that sandwich?" I heard mia scoff and say

"Thast real funny Dom" I was almost to them when my sister yelled

"DOM" I break up the fight and Vince accidentally hits me in the chest it hurt like a bitch and i threw the blonde on the hood which shocked him. Then dom came out

They started arguing and i tones it out when i heard Dom say

"Dont come around here again" Poor Mia.

"You know thats bullshit!!" Brain Yelled I still had my hand on my chest.

"You work for harry right?" I heard dom ask then I started coughing

"Yeah i just started"

"You were just fired" The Dom and patted my side as letty ran outside with my drink and pill.

After a few minutes i was done and took more meds and was led in the Cafe.

"You alright i didnt mean to hit you Tiny" Vince said with Guilt, and worry.

"Im alright just a little cough" I told him with a smile and he smiled back.

"You good for the race" Dom asked. I nodded

"Yeah im good" None of them looked convinced "Im good ight stop lookin at me like im gonna break at any damn moment!" I hated them piting me

"Ight" Dom and letty said.

I was beside Dom as we drove to the Street race. He got out and the crowd cheered I stayed in my car i didn't liek many people. After a few minutes Hector came up and knocked on my window. I rolled it down

"Hey Tiny You gonna race" we shook hands

"Nah not tonight Chest hurts "He is one of the very few who know im sick

"Oh one of those nights" I nodded my head "Ight Tiny Ill let em know."

I sat in the car as i watched them race and of Cource Dom own when he reached the Finish line i got out a he picked up letty and kissed her. Then Brian pulled up He was smiling too so i had to ask

"What you smilin about" He pointed at Dom and said

"Dude i almost had him" The crowd laughed and Dom butted in

"Almost had me?" He aske din disbeleif "You never had me. You never had your car."

"Yeah" Some one from the crowd yelled and a alot of oohs.

My chest started hurting more so I toned out and tried to contoll me breathing until I heard Dom say my name

"Yo Tiny tell him how it is." I smirked and said.

"It doesn't matter if you win by an inch or a mile... Winning Is Winning. Hazard boy." Then we heard Leon
