Decisions
Author's Note: I feel like I'm rushing things, but this is all I could think of.
------------------------------------
Lora opened her eyes slowly, rubbing a hand over her face as she adjusted to the sudden burst of light flooding into the room. A low rumble in the pit of her stomach made her sit up slowly, scanning the room for Jesse. She finally spotted him in a bundle of covers, sleeping soundly.
They had partied until nearly six in the morning, celebrating one of Dom's many race victories.
Taking in a breath, Lora pushed herself from the small bed and held her stomach as she walked into the deserted hallway. Everyone was retired to his or her respected bedrooms sleeping off a wild night. A wave of nausea passed through her suddenly, causing her to jog to the bathroom and throw open the door.
Jesse yawned, reaching a blind hand out for Lora - only to find that she was gone.
"Lor?" He muttered, opening his eyes as he searched the bed for her. The strong scent of her vanilla perfume filled the air, yet she was nowhere to be found.
"Lora.." His voice came out a vacant croak from the covers as he desperately tried to stand up and start the search party.
"Hey.. Jess.." Lora stood in the doorway, holding her stomach as she looked at him.
"Hey, baby. Are you okay?" She nodded, searching his face as she entered the room and slid back into bed. "Yeah, I'm fine."
Jesse smiled to himself and watched her pull a section of blanket over her body, "Come lay down." She ordered. He crawled back into bed with her and wrapped his arms tightly around her waist,
"I love you, baby."
------------------------ Next Day.
"This is horrible!"
Mia looked up from the clothes rack and frowned, watching as Lora emerged from a dressing room stall - wearing a short red cocktail dress.
"You look beautiful." She assured her friend, making her way towards the girl standing in devastation.
"What's wrong with jeans and a tank top? It's Jesse!" Lora pleaded, watching herself in a mirror as she smoothed the front of the dress with her palms.
"Jesse, is taking you to the nicest restaurant in L.A next weekend. You have to wear a dress." Mia stated, picking up the pair of matching red high heal shoes.
With a sigh, Lora nodded in agreement and slinked back into the dressing room.

Jesse dropped a wrench loudly to the ground, causing a clatter to echo through the garage.
"Yo, Einstein. What's got you so shaky?" Vince asked, looking up from a motor. Shrugging it off, Jesse returned to his vehicle, trying desperately to concentrate on the task at hand.
"Jess!"
Dom yelled through the garage, causing the wrench to once again fall to the floor.
"Ye..yeah?" He asked, nervously as Dom waved him into the back office. "Mi said that you wanted to talk to me? What's going on, bro?"
Jesse sat down beside Dom's desk and sighed, taking in a slow breath. He watched Dominic standing a few feet away from him at the cooler, getting them both a Corona.
"There's something big going on with me.." Jesse started, resting his elbows on his knees. "I've never experienced anything like the feeling Lora gives me.. and I've never wanted to do this before, but.."
A beat. Dom turned his attention away from the cooler and looked towards his now silent friend, staring in shock at the small black box between Jesse's hands. "
Jess, man. What is that?"
Keeping his eyes on the box, Jesse opened the lid and exposed a small cut diamond engagement ring to the room.
"Wow. Jess, are you sure?"
Jesse looked up.
"This is the only thing Ive ever been sure of in my life."
~
"Are you sure?"
Lora looked up from her soda and nodded, "Pink plus and everything. Isn't it funny how your whole future is determined by a stick that cost a dollar?"
Mia studied Lora for a long moment before answering. She looked utterly confused and hopeless, yet the tough girl exterior shined through.
"Are you going to be okay? Does Jesse know?"
Lora shook her head no, returning the straw to her lips.
After a moment she sighed and looked up at Mia, worry on her features.
"I've known him for less than a year. Things like this aren't supposed to happen.. we are supposed to party and hang out and be in love but not have babies. He won't understand."
Mia frowned, reaching across the table and placing her hand over Lora's.
"He will understand. Jesse loves you Lora, no matter what. You'll both get through this and I'll be there, Dom and the team. We are all here for you." She assured softly, squeezing her hand.
Lora smiled lightly, leaning back into her chair.
