10.1





The next day, Kassidy goes to the garage to help with the car. Kassidy and Letty put the decal on the car while Leon and Dom work on setting up the NOS. After they finish that Letty and Leon leave. Dom and Kassidy start working on another car. Dom rolls Kassidy out from under the car that she is working on, while smirking at her. Kassidy stands, making them be chest to chest as she smiles at him. Kassidy moves some hair out of her face as they look at each other before she pulls him into a kiss. As they are kissing Dom's hands make their way down her butt before stopping right below it and picking her up causing her to wrap her legs around his waist. Kassidy pulls his shirt off before waving it around as Dom carries her over to the couch in the corner. They then go back to kissing and other things.

That night Kassidy and Brian are called to check in.

"Yes, sir. Yeah, I know, but. Yeah. Yes, sir. Yeah. I got it," Bilkins says as he is on the phone before he walks over to them. "The DVD players were purchased legally. All we've got are a couple of low-rent weapons charges and some outstanding speeding tickets."

"So, they're out," Tanner says.

"Yeah. Father bailed them out," Bilkins says. "Is this the kind of intelligence I can expect from you, O'Conner? Pearce?" Kassidy just rolls her eyes, knowing he was just looking for someone to blame.

"You're gonna put this on us?" Brian asks him.

"I can put it on whoever I want to. Perks of the job," Bilkins says.

"No, you can't put this on us..." Brian tries to argue.

"No, wait a minute. Let me tell you. I don't care if you both have to aim at someone and blow your covers to smithereens. You've got 36 hours to crack this bastard or you both might want to think about another career," Bilkins explains before Brian and Kassidy walk outside with Tanner.

"It's Toretto. It always has been Toretto. Tran and Hector are... They're just fumes," Tanner states as Kat lets out a sigh while she looks down. "I know you've both been lying to me. My question is this: Have you both been lying to yourselves because you can't see past Dominic and Amelia?"

"Dom won't go back to prison," Kassidy tells him.

"Well, that's a choice he's going to have to make," Tanner says causing Kassidy to shake her head. "There's all kinds of family, Kassidy. And that's a choice you're gonna have to make."



The next day everyone besides Vince is at the garage because the car is done.

"You ready for this?" Letty asks as Brian, Dom, and Kassidy get into the car. Brian revs the engine in response causing everyone to smile. They are driving around testing everything thing out before they come to a red light and pull up beside a Ferrari.

"Nice car. What's the retail on one of those?" Brian asks the guy driving.

"More than you can afford, pal," The guy says as he revs his engine. "Ferrari."

"Smoke him," Dom tells Brian causing Kassidy to smile in excitement. As soon as the light turns green they take off. The cars stay side by side until there are two cars in front of them. Brian has to weave through traffic in the other lane before they are beside the Ferrari again in front of the two cars. Brian then takes the lead and leaves them in the dust. They pull up to a restaurant and get out before the Ferrari finally passes by.

"So, what's wrong, Brian?" Dom asks as Brian plays with his shrimp.

"Nothing, man, I'm fine," Brian answers him.

"Come on. Obviously something's off," Dom says. "Right Kass?" Kassidy nods in agreement but she knew why Brian was upset.

"Look, I have my good days and bad days just like anybody else," Brian tells them.

"Brian, don't lose that cool of yours. That's your meal ticket," Dom tells him.

"My meal ticket? I can't pay for my own shrimp?" Brian questions him.

"I got the shrimp," Kassidy says as she pulls the tray towards her.

"No, that's one thing about me you don't understand. I don't take handouts. I earn my way, every step.  I just gotta earn something extra on the side, like you," Brian rants before he eats some of the shrimp.

"What do you mean, like me? What's that supposed to mean?" Dom questions him.

"That's what I mean," Brian says.

"What does that mean, like me?" Dom asks him while Kassidy shoots Brian a glare.

"Don't try..." Brian starts. "I'm not stupid, all right? I know that there's no way you paid for all that shit you got under the hood..." Dom motions for him to quiet down. "There's no way you paid for what's under the hood of those cars by doing tune-ups and selling groceries. Whatever it is you're in on, I want in on it, too." Dom and Brian stare at each other. Dom then reaches into his shirt pocket and pulls out a piece of paper before handing it to Brian. "Well, what is this?"

"Read it," Dom tells Brian.

"What is this for?" Brian asks as he looks at the paper.

"It's directions. To Race Wars. We'll see how you do.  Then we'll talk," Dom answers him.
