The Cop And The Criminal

67.6

TWO MONTHS LATER

Rome walks out of a house with a plate of meat for the grill as he passes Han, who is sitting on the steps with a corona.
"Don't burn it this time. Please?" Rome says as he walks over to Tej, who is manning the grill. Brian and Mia walk pass them as Brian holds Jack.
"Good food," Brian tells Jack with a smile. "The air quality here is lousy, the traffic is bad, but I think you'll learn to like this place."
"Yeah," Mia says as they walk over to the garage. "And here you've got your own garage so you can build a car with Daddy."
"We'll be building a car?" Brian asks Jack.
"First car better be a Charger, Jack," Dom says as he and Kassidy stand beside Letty.
"You mean Skyline," Brian says as he looks over at them.
"Like I said, he's a Toretto," Dom says causing Letty and Kassidy to laugh.
"You're confusing the kid," Kassidy tells them as she, Dom, and Letty start walking over to them. "He definitely wants to build an Impala."
"Mia, you're gonna let them get away with this?" Dom asks his sister with a smile, causing Kassidy to playfully shove him.

"You really going to do it? Tokyo?" Rome asks Han as he takes over the grill.
"Yeah, it's just something I gotta do," Han answers him before taking a drink of his beer.
"You know we got your back, whenever you need us," Tej tells him before Rome notices Hobbs and Elena.
"Hey, Mia, you better hide your baby oil," Rome says causing Kassidy to smile and shake her head at her brother. "I'm just playing."
"You better hide that big ass forehead," Hobbs retorts causing Tej to spit out his beer and Kassidy to laugh.
"I was just joking but whatever," Rome says offended. "Definitely not that funny."
"It's official," Hobbs says as he stand in front of Letty, Brian, Mia, Kassidy, and Dom. "You're all free." Tej and Rome fist bump as Hobbs hands the file to Dom. "It wasn't half bad, having you work for me."
"We all know you were working for me, Hobbs," Dom says with a chuckle.
"Agree to disagree," Brian says causing them all to smile. "Thank you."
"Good luck," Hobbs tells him before Brian, Jack, and Mia go into the garage and Letty walks over to Elena.
"Elena," Letty says as she reaches her.
"Letty," Elena says with a smile.

"That's got to be awkward," Tej says as he and Rome watch.
"But sexy as hell," Tej and Rome say at the same time.

"I wanted to thank you for everything you've done for them," Letty says as they look over at Dom and Kassidy. "For us. It takes an amazing woman."
"They're amazing people," Elena says.
"Yeah, they are," Letty says in agreement.
"Try to keep them out of trouble, huh?" Elena asks her.
"Now, you know that's not gonna happen," Letty tells her with a laugh.
"I know," Elena says before Letty walks away.

"Not bad for a cop," Dom says as he takes a step towards Hobbs, causing Kassidy to smile.
"I never thought I'd trust a criminal," Hobbs says as he takes a step forward, standing beside Dom. "Until next time."
"Until next time," Dom says in agreement before Hobbs takes a step away.
"Thank you," Kassidy tells Hobbs with a smile before he walks away.

"Elena," Kassidy says as she and Dom walk over to her. "You know you don't have to go."
"All this," Elena says as she glances over at the others. "This is your family. It's who you are." Elena then holds up her badge that is around her neck. "This is my family. This is who I am." Elena pulls them both into a quick hug before she leaves. Dom grabs Kassidy's hand causing her to smile up at him. Dom brings her hand to his mouth, kissing it, causing Kassidy to giggle before she wraps her arm around Dom's waist leaning her head on his chest as they watch their family.
"This is how it's supposed to be," Kassidy says with a smile before looking up at Dom, who is already looking down at her in adoration. "I love you, Dominic Toretto." Dom pulls her into a kiss causing Kassidy to smile bigger. She truly loves the man in front of her with all of her being.
"And I love you, Kassidy Pearce Tor...." Dom says.
"All right, everybody lets eat," Tej calls, interrupting Dom, as he and Rome bring the food to the table.
"Need some help with that?" Letty asks them, causing Kassidy to smile as Letty becomes a part of the family again.
"It's all here. It's done," Rome answers her as he sets down the last plate. Brian pulls out Mia's chair for her before she sits down with Jack. "Come on, man, lets get with it." Rome grabs a chip before taking a bite.
"First bite, he's got grace," Brian says as he points at Rome, causing Kassidy to smile and giggle. "House rules, man. House rules."
"It's whatever," Rome says as he sits down.
"Any of this feel familiar to you?" Dom asks Letty as they watch everybody.
"No," Letty answers him. "But it feels like home."
"That's good enough for me," Kassidy tells her before Dom sits down.
"All right, y'all. Come on, lets do this," Rome says as Kassidy gives Letty a quick hug before she sits in Dom's lap. Dom gives Kassidy a kiss on the cheek before nodding his head.
"Okay big brother," Kassidy says with a smile as Letty sits down beside her and Dom. "Bless our table." Everyone, who can, grabs hands as they bow their heads with Brian kissing Mia's hand a few times.
"Father, thank you for the gathering of friends. Father, we give thanks for all the choices we've made, because that's what makes us who we are. Let us forever cherish the loved ones we've lost along the way. Thank you for the little angel, the newest addition to our family. Thank you for bringing Letty home. And most of all, thank you for fast cars."
