NEW YORK CITY
TWO DAYS LATER
"So, what have I missed?" Hailee asks Ramsey as she walks over to her before handing her a beer.
"Roman is getting ready to tell us why one of us would look good with him," Ramsey says with a smile, causing Hailee to slightly laugh as she looks over at Tej and Roman. Tej smiles as he and Hailee make eye contact which causes her to smile as well. "Though, I'm going to be the bestest friend you've ever had and go on a date with Roman so he will shut up about it already."
"You really are the bestest friend there is," Hailee says with a laugh as she hugs Ramsey, who playfully rolls her eyes at Hailee before Roman and Tej join them.
"I get it, y'all got a lot in common," Roman says as he motions from Hailee and Ramsey to Tej. "Computer hacks, God's Eye, geeks, nerd... You know. But we got a lot in common too!"
"Like what?" Tej asks as he looks at Roman confused.
"If me and either of the girls walk into the room, we would be oozin' sex appeal," Roman explains, causing Tej to roll his eyes. "Me and either of you, hip to hip, is a problem." Ramsey lets out a laugh at how ridiculous he sounds while Hailee shakes her head with a smile. "I'm asking the real question right now." Tej smirks as Roman points at him. "Is it gonna be Revenge Of The Nerds?" Tej glares at Roman for the insult. "Or the Dark Knight? Huh?"
"To be honest I like both of you in different ways," Ramsey says with a smile, causing Tej and Roman to congratulate each other and fist bump. "But just before we get into all of that, let me ask you one question."
"You can ask me anything," Roman says with a smile while nodding.
"What's our last names?" Ramsey asks as she motions to herself and Hailee with a smirk, causing Roman and Tej to grow quiet as they look at each other confused. "When you guys figure it out, then, I guess Roman can let me know and Tej can let Hailee know."
"It's going to be Parker," Tej says as he looks over at Hailee with a wink which causes her to blush. "That's all that really matters."
"Jones," Roman tries to guess Ramsey's last name as the girls lock arms. "Right?"
"Hey, Miss Parker," Tej calls as he waves at Hailee before she and Ramsey walk away from them while laughing since the names that the team knows them by are actually their last names. Roman and Tej debate the girls last names while Hailee and Ramsey watch the others on the roof. Mr. Nobody and Little Nobody talk briefly with Letty before talking to Hobbs and his daughter. Hailee and Ramsey share a look of shock as Deckard Shaw walks out onto the roof with a car seat in hand before he goes to talk with Dom. They talk for a moment before Deckard goes to talk to Mr. Nobody while Dom introduces his son to Letty.
"This is one crazy family," Ramsey says as she looks over at Hailee, who has a smile on her face.
"You're not wrong," Hailee agrees with a nod before taking a drink of her beer. "But I'm glad we're able to be a part of it." Ramsey thinks about what Hailee had said for a moment before nodding in agreement.
"Alright everyone," Roman says to get everyone's attention. "My ribs feel like they are about to start showing. So, let's eat!" Everyone starts to gather around the table before Ramsey sits beside Roman, who has Little Nobody and Samantha Hobbs sitting on the other side of Roman. Tej pulls out Hailee's chair as she sits beside Letty before Tej sits beside her with Mr. Nobody and Deckard on the other side of Tej. Hobbs sits at the end of the table while Dom stands at the other end with the baby in his arms.
"Most of you have heard me say that you never turn your back on family," Dom says as he looks around at everyone with a smile. "And I wanna thank you all for never turning your back on me." The baby starts cooing, causing Dom to look down at him. "You wanna meet them? All right. Everyone... Meet Brian." Everyone cheers while clapping, causing the baby to giggle and clap as well.
"Hey, Brian," Tej says as he waves at the baby.
"Welcome to the family, Brian," Roman says with a smile, causing Tej to nod in agreement.
"Okay, I guess it's my turn to say grace," Dom says with a smile before sitting down as everyone, who can, grabs hands. "We sit here in praise. We thank you for giving us family. Thank you for giving us the strength to carry on. May you continue to bless this family as it continues to grow. Amen."
