Tia
“ Dominic, that's enough “..
“ Fuck no Tia . I swear to God if you little idiots don't start talking I'm grounding all of your asses“.
“ Start talking now”. Bennett said.
I just rolled my eyes,Allie looked at me. Yesterday was Mia, Maya, Gideon and Richy's Eighteenth birthday and we threw a party for them. After the entire situation at the college, everything had settled down. Mia, Gideon, Maya and Richy decided to go back and they did .
They graduated a few days Before their eighteenth birthday. Mia and Gideon were planning on a trip ,so was Maya and Richy and we agreed, however their fathers were losing their Shit that's where we were right now.
They had Zeke, Cyrus, Andrew, Chris, Ben and Anthony outside on the patio trying to Find out exactly where the four uad gone but we already warned them not to say anything. The truth was they were on the family island with bodyguards. Dominic was acting out because he found out a few days ago at Mia's graduation ceremony that she had a boyfriend that was the reason for him losing his shit however when he questioned Mia she tried to explain to him that the relationship ended when she finished College however he didn't give her a chance to speak so she didn't tell him anything . That's why he was really mad; he thought she was gone with her boyfriend.
Bennett was losing his shit also because Maya had a boyfriend and they did not tell their fathers which resulted in Bennett and Dominic trying to go after the boys forcing Sam ,Mason , Marcus and Ryan to stop them. I looked at Dominic and I grabbed them by his shirt and walked all the way over to our house. I stood in the living room looking at him.
“ How could you just let her leave? she's probably somewhere with that fucking little asshole and God knows what the ..”
“Dominic, stop . she's not with him, the four cousins are together, they're on the family Island . you didn't give her a chance to speak . She wanted to tell you that she broke up with the guy because she knew you would not approve and she said it was only for the duration of college and she was only in a relationship because it avoided all the other guys from speaking to her. it wasn't serious and yes I asked her she did not sleep with him so stop losing your shit and acting like a madman you and Bennett need to calm down”
“ How the hell can I calm down? She's my daughter. I only have one ..”
I looked at him and just rolled my eyes “ yeah genius, I'm someone's daughter also did you forget that ?”.
“ I didn't mean it like that ,it's just I don't want her to ruin her life”. He said exhaustedly
“ Dominic, she's a 18 year old college graduate, how many parents can say that their kids graduated college at 18 years old . She's smart and she's responsible. She's not going to do anything dumb neither is Maya, Gideon or Richie. Please have a little more faith in our daughter”.
“Okay fine at least let me talk to her she won't answer my calls ”
“I wonder why? if you keep acting like an insane man “
“ Fine , I'll stop “.
I called Mia and she spoke to him. They spoke for over an hour and after the phone call he seemed a bit more relaxed and back to his normal self. Later that evening we were lying in bed and I could send something was bothering him .
“ What is it Dominic ?”.
“ Nothing, just the kids are growing up really fast. Mia and Gideon are already eighteen years old Zeke and Cyrus they're growing up really fast and I feel like I'm losing touch with them “.
“ That happens I was the same way. We've given our kids the privacy they needed, we've given them respect and they've proven that they're responsible to us. they know that if they're ever in trouble they can always come to us, they can always confide in us so there's nothing we have to worry about, okay “.
“Okay ”.
Dominic hasn't changed, he's still the same man I feel in love with. If anything he's become more protective of us . Especially the kids. He's been an amazing husband, loving and attentive. We still had date nights and romantic getaways,he always surprised me with some gifts and I let him. My mother was doing okay ,she still misses dad but she had all of us. My friends who were like my sister's were happy and flourishing.
Dominic
Life has settled down tremendously. My only problem and headache was my damn daughter . The thought of some little shit putting his hands on her drove me insane to the point where sometimes Tia looked at me like I was crazy. Everyone was doing good. Angela still missed Collins but she was okay because she had everyone around . My parents were okay, they were older and were just happy being at home with everyone . A few years ago Amy and Sam had another child. They had another boy named Clayton . The business was going well .Tia's business also every single one of our businesses were going great and we couldn't complain life is great we all had what we wanted and we had family around .
Caius worked for us now and was always on the lookout for anyone trying to start trouble but that was only between Sam Bennett ,Mason ,Ryan and me no one else knew. The women didn't know tamd we kept it that way. There wasn't any trouble in Years so we were able to relax however Caius mentioned that agent Craig would do random checks on our family ,he was true to his words he still kept an eye on us. Detective Ryan retired two years ago but he still kept in touch with us.
Later that evening I found her sitting outside. She looked more beautiful than ever , with every single passing day she became more beautiful and I loved her even more. I sat next to her and just held her in my arms.
“ And why are you sitting here so lonely?”.
“ I was waiting for you to find me”. She said smiling.
“ I'll always find your love always, how about we go to bed ?”.
“I have a surprise for you ” she said smiling
“ God damn you and your surprises are going to give me a heart attack”.
She stood up laughing and she ran into the house and I was after her. This was the way our life is supposed to be, happy and content. We had each other, our kids were happy, our parents were happy, every single one of our family members were happy and we will continue to keep it that way.
