"What does she look like?" Mia asked, impatiently.

"She's about 5'5, black hair, greenish-hazel eyes." Brian answered, looking around the crowded airport. He was looking for one of his friends from back home. He hadn't seen her since he moved out to LA and joined LAPD. The reason for her coming was for new scenery considering she just had a bad breakup. He looked down at his watch, and looked around once more. "Her plane should've landed by now."

"I'll go check and see if it's delayed or something." He continued to look around, but he noticed a woman in a tank top, jeans, and boots. She looked familiar but he couldn't put his finger on it. Is that her? He thought to himself. He shook his head.

"That couldn't be her." voicing his thoughts aloud. The friend, he left behind, was a tomboy and Nerd, who wore glasses. She wasn't into of those girly things, like heels nor make up. Their gazes meet and she squinted her eyes.

"Brian?" She questioned. She slowly walks over with a huge duffle bag, on her shoulder, and a backpack on the other. As she got closer, he still couldn't put a name to her face for the life of him. Once she reached him, she smiled. "Long time, No see."

"Excuse me but I don't know you." He said, politely.

"Brian, it's Natalie Ramos from Barstow." She proclaimed. He gave her puzzled look, and her smile faded. She reached into her backpack, then pulled out a hat and glasses. She placed them both on her and the face came back to him.

"It really is you." He gaped, with a smile. He gave her a friendly hug and looked at her. "What happened to you?"

"One day I decided to just be little bit girly, considering I was single. Once changed the way I dressed and got contacts, I started getting guys left and right." She informed. "Don't worry, I still have the tomboy in me."

"You look good." He smirked, and put the two items back into the bag.

"The plane came on time." Mia announced, walking up to Brian. She looked Natalie's way and smirked. "Is this her?"

"Hi, I'm Natalie and you must be Mia." She greeted.

"It's nice to finally meet you." Mia retorts. "Brian has told me so much about you."

"Same here, but you're more gorgeous than he described."

"Is that all brought?" He asked. She looked at her duffle bag and nodded.

"Yeah," She answered. "Let's get out of this airport." He nodded, and they made their way out of the crowded airport. They walked towards the 1969 black camaro ss.

"I'll take that." He said, reaching for her bags.

"This is your car?" She asked, in amazement.

"Kinda," He placed the two bags into the trunk.

"It's very nice," She managed to say. "Did you keep the original engine or did you change it?"

"And what might the original be, exactly?" He asked, out of curiousity.

"GM's L48 engine," She answered. "It is a 90-degree V8, naturally aspirated gas engine with a total displacement of 350 cubic inches, or 5.7 liters. Sometimes this model can come with a 6.5-liter V8 rated at 375 horsepower. I drove one of these back home, but we changed the engine and it went faster."

"Who are you? and what have you done with my friend?" He asked, jokingly.

"You learn a few things after a while." She answered, getting into the backseat.

"Sure you do," He joked. "Do you want to come to a race tonight?"

"Street racing?"

"Yeah" He answered.

"They're pretty entertaining if the cops don't show." Mia added.

"Sure, why not?"

"Alright, I have to stop and get my car." He informed. She looked out the window as the car drove on the highway. She felt a vibration in her pocket and pulled out her phone. Kyle popped up on the caller ID. Not only did she not want to talk to him again considering their brake up was bad.

Flashback

Natalie opened the door to the bedroom that her and Kyle shared. It was a long night working at the bar.

"Babe, are you awake?" She asked, as she placed her keys on the dresser. The room was dark and silent. Only the wind could be heard from the open window, that was near their bed. She turned on the lights to get ready for bed. She walked towards her mirror and began brushing her wavy hair into a ponytail. As she looked into the mirror, she saw two lumps in the bed. Both of them were bodies, hidden by the covers. She slowly placed the brush down on the dresser. Her shoes soon came off and placed by the door. She walked towards the door and opened then closed it. The bodies, hastily, moved and pulled the covers off to see her standing there. There was another woman on her side of the bed. They all stood still, just staring at each other.

End of Flashback

The car stopped, and snapped Natalie back into reality. Brian pulled the seat forward and let her out. They were in front of a garage, and the door was wide open.

" I want you to meet some people before the race tonight." He informed, walking into the garage. As they walked into the garage, there were people working on all sorts of cars. It was every mechanic's paradise. "Guys, gather around." A handful of guys walked towards him.

"What is it, Brian?" One asked.

"Just wanted to introduce a friend of mine. Natalie, this is Vince, Rome and Tej ." Brian introduced

"Nice to meet you, guys." She flashed a smile.

"What's a beautiful lady, like yourself, doing with Brian?" Rome asked. She raised her eyebrow, as she crossed her arms.

"Where's Dom?" Brian asked.

"Don't know." Vince answered. "Probably getting ready, which means we should all be heading over there."

"Nat, Why don't you get settled at my place then Rome will bring you to the race." He said.

"Sounds good." She smiled at Rome, and walked outside towards the car.

Cars were lined up, people showing off their cars.

"The race is about to start, Where are they?" Brian asked, himself.

"Where are who?" Natalie asked, walking up from behind. She put makeup on and changed her hair. Her bangs were straightened, while the rest of her hair was still curly. It was something he wasn't used to.

"Brought her here, safe and sound." Rome said.

"He tried to get touchy a few times but I'm here." She said, with a smile.

"Just walk around, and get a good spot. Race is going to start soon." Brian instructed. She nodded and walked through the crowd looking at cars. She looked at one in particular, which was a Green 1973 Chevrolet Camaro with a black strip across the hood. She stood next to the car observing the beauty of the rims on the side, and the paint.

"You like?" A guy asked, looking at her with his brown eyes.

"The paint job is great, but the engine is the only thing that counts." She commented.

"You make a good point." He answered. She looked into his brown eyes. He was tall, bald, had a muscular fatigue, and nice brown eyes. He was very hot and attractive in her eyes. She pointed towards the hood of the car.

"Do you mind?"

"Not at all." He said, as he opened the hood. She looked at the engine and she was amazed. It was like she was a kid in a store full of candy and toys.

"Amazing." She commented, with a smile. "Are you racing tonight?"

"As a matter a fact, I am." He answered.

"You have a good chance if any of the engines don't match it considering you have one of the best twin turbo engine in this bad boy." She added.

"A woman knows her stuff about cars," He concluded. "and a pretty one too."

"Here's where you went." Rome interrupted. "So you've met Dom."

"I guess I have." She smirked, as she looked into Dom's eyes.

"And who might this be?" Dom asked.

"I'm Natalie, but you can call me Nat or Allie for short." She introduced. "I'd better go, since you have a race to win." She flashed a seductive smirk, and walked away with Rome.
