A very quick little ending chapter to make up for my being gone for so long!

Louie leaned against the streetlamp across from his brother's house and watched as the Messer children were bundled into the car by their father, presumably headed for school and daycare. First the twins, then Fina and lastly Anna and Gio. Gio came running out at the last minute with his shoes untied, laces flapping every which way. Louie saw him begin to fall before it happened, but a busy street stood in his way. Danny turned around in time to catch the boy, but was himself knocked backward and fell, cushioning Gio's fall. The pair laughed at their situation, and Danny took a moment to tickle Gio before setting him right and tying the boy's shoes. Louie smiled and knew in his heart that the decision he'd made was the right one. He slipped away as Danny noticed the note under his car windshield wiper.

D-

He's yours.
