Life is what happens when you're making other plans

Brian had just gotten back from Miami, he went to Mia's house and knocked on the door. Mia opened the door and Brian said "before you close the door in my face which I deserve" he handed her some paperwork . "I have brought the DT place and I will open it but keep it as the name. And I got you the store if you want it. The reason why I will keep it under the same name is because I believe Dom will be back and I have the money and I didn't want to see the places be closed or go to someone else." Mia said "I don't think Dom will." Just then Tanner came up, Brian said "I got to go." Tanner said "you will be really happy your team can come home." Mia asked "how?" Tanner turned to see Brian had left, and said "because of that guy that left." Mia said "what!" Tanner said "he got his, a friend of his and all of your people a clean record." Mia said "wow! Thank you." Tanner said "you are welcome" then he left.

Mia called Dom and told him what was going on. Dom said "okay thank you." Mia said "you are welcome." It was a couple of days later that Dom went to his shop, when he got there he saw that Brian was having a panic attack because of a couple of motorcycles going past. Dom came running in,he told the people waiting "I will be right there with you." Dom turned back to Brian and moved him, and said "breathe, take a deep breath." Brian tried to do that, but he could not breathe that well. Dom said "follow me." After a few minutes Brian finally got to breathe correctly and said " thank you." Dom said "you are welcome." Brian said "sorry about that, it started to happen after Miami." Dom said "it's okay."

Dom said "go to the back and settle down for a little bit and I will take care of this." Brian said "okay thank you." Dom said "you are welcome." Brian went to the back and settled down some more. Dom said "sorry about that." The man and woman said "it's all good." The woman said "I hope he feels better." Dom said "yeah I think he will." Dom asked "what do you need us to do?" The man said "we would like to give this car right here to my son and his wife but we don't know if it will be good or not." Dom said "do you need it right away?" The man said "I think we can wait at least a month." Dom said "okay either me or one of my friends or the guy that's back there will be able to look at it." The woman said "okay thank you." Dom said "you are welcome." Dom said "I will call you when it's done." The woman and man said, "okay." Dom said "goodbye." The woman and man said "goodbye." The woman and the man left.

Dom went to the back to talk to Brian. Dom asked Brian "are you better?" Brian said "yeah." Dom asked "how did you get us, yourself, and your childhood friend clean records?" Brian said "after I let you go I had to go on the run, I was good at it, I got to Miami and I was good but I got caught and I said either take me to jail because the person that they had for me to run with was a dumb ass so I went with my childhood friend and told them to clean yours and everyone else's and Roman's over mine, we got it done. Roman broke his arm because he was in the car with me and we hit a boat. I got hurt as well." Brian lifted up his shirt to show off his bruise. Dom asked "did you get checked out?" Brian said "no, I didn't see the point." Dom asked "what if what just happened had to do with the accident, did you hit your head?" Brian said "yeah, it's fine, nothing that I could do on my own." Dom said "come on." Brian asked "where are we going?" Dom said "we are going to my house." Brian said "um okay?" Dom said "don't worry, I got it." Brian said "okay." They got up to the garage, Brian went to pull the garage doors but that just hurt him more. Dom said "just go to the car I got this." Brian said "okay, thank you." Dom said "you are welcome." Brian got into the car.

He knew Mia would want his shirt off so while she was coming to him he took off his shirt. Brian heard everyone say "son of a bitch." Mia hurried to run over to Brian, before she looked at Brian carefully. Mia said "he will need to go to the hospital." Brian said "please no hospital." Mia said "I am sorry but you need to be looked at." Brian said "fine."

Brian pulled out his phone and called Roman, When Roman answered he said "hey brother what's up?" Brian said "I have to go to the hospital." Roman said "no!" Brian said "I don't have a choice." Roman said "okay go to one in our hometown." Brian said "okay." Roman said "I will be there soon." Brian said "okay, got it." Brian and Roman got off the phone. Brian said "we need to go to Barstow." Dom asked "why?" Brian said "because Roman and I got into trouble in Miami." Brian told them about the guy that they worked for to get him to go to jail and he got out of police custody. And the guy said that he will be after Roman and I. Dom said "oh."
