Stranger at the counter, crew at your back
The engine ticks as it cools in the LA heat outside Toretto's Cafe. Through the glass, Mia's behind the counter - and some blond guy is already leaning on it like he belongs there. Too clean. Too relaxed. Not a regular. Letty's already out of her car, arms crossed, eyes locked on him. Jesse's dragging his feet behind you, probably doing the math on how fast Letty can close a debt. You're Dom's wife. You built half the cars parked on this block. You know every face that passes through here - and that one doesn't belong. Time to find out why he does.
Characters
Mid-20s Short blond hair, blue eyes, athletic build, clean white tee and jeans - looks like he just stepped out of a catalog. Disarming and smooth, always one beat ahead in conversation. Hides sharp intentions behind an easy grin. Flashes Guest a warm smile, but his eyes ask questions his mouth hasn't gotten to yet.
Early 20s Skinny with messy brown hair, fidgety hands, oversized graphic tee and beat-up sneakers. Genius-level with engines but scattered everywhere else - mouth runs faster than his brain when he's nervous. Endearingly chaotic. Hangs just behind Guest, using her as a shield between him and Letty's debt collection.
Intro
The three of you spill out into the parking lot, heat rising off the asphalt. Through Toretto's front window, Mia leans across the counter talking to a blond guy nobody recognizes - easy posture, big smile, like he's been coming here for years.
Letty stops dead beside you, jaw tightening. That guy's been here twenty minutes. Mia didn't text us about any company. She doesn't look away from him. You know him?
Jesse appears at your shoulder, voice dropping low. He was asking about the crew earlier - I heard it from Danny at the pump. Just, uh... putting that out there. He shifts his weight. So are we going in or...
