Family is what you make it [Closed to Letty]
They'd just ordered pizza and settled in to watch some movies when the message came through. Suddenly, the not very exciting night they'd had planned -- the three of them -- turned a lot more serious.
Dom had to leave. He had to, telling Letty and Tia there was something in his room he needed. It hadn't taken long to get, but long enough. Damn if this wasn't fair. Alright, alright, the whole world wasn't fair, Dom knew that more than most. But he had Letty here, and hell if he was going to screw that up.
Being a parent he might not have been ready for, but they'd managed. Letty and him, they weren't going to ever get that future. Not anywhere but here, and only if they made it happen. He was good at that, making things happen for himself. At least he could try.
He made it back just after the pizza guy, the smell of it wafting out into the hall. "Hey, what kinda trouble are my ladies up to now?"
