Another day another Chapter. . . but, not just any chapter ,Dominic's headed home to recover thank you to all who followed and favorited this story and a special thanks to those who reviewed. Enjoy
Dominic arrived in Syracuse around ten O'clock Saturday promised his mother was waiting for him at the terminal when he arrived. As soon as he was close enough his mother began fussing over him. He tried to grab his bags ( which got his mother fussing about that) he agreed to let her carry the lighter bad as he walked ahead without further delay with his rolling case. He could already see he was in for a LONG visit he just hoped he could handle it.
They pulled up to his mother's three bedroom ranch style house that Dom insisting on purchasing . He tried to get her to move onto a better side of town but, she refused arguing that there was nothing wrong with where she lived . Luckily he managed to find a nice house for her a few blocks away from where he'd grew up.
Dominic had forgotten how much he enjoyed a good home cooked meal. Once his mother got him settled in she went in the kitchen and made some Sausage ,eggs, grits and toast which was his favorite. The downside being that his mother felt he was in too much pain to feed himself and so here he sat miserably having no choice but to let her feed him.
It was early Wednesday afternoon and Dom had spent all week protesting his mother's excessive pampering of him. His sister Devin had one of her rare days off and had all but threatened bodily harm if he didn't go to dinner with her needless to say he said Siblings agreed to meet at their favorite little diner which was probably the only place in syracuse to get the good southern home cooking that they only usually got on big holidays which was why they loved it .After insisting to his mother for the millionth time that he was ok to drive Dom went to meet his sister.
He arrived at the restaurant right on time but in usual fashion she was late. Dom let himself be seated and ordered both him and his sister a sweet tea to drink Knowing she wouldn't want anything else.
As soon as the waitress came back with the drinks he saw his sister Devin walk in and waved her over. Devin Elise King .Dominic stood and greeted her with a hug as she got to the table.
"Hey Dom"
"Hey Dev"
The siblings greeted each other and took their seats. He knew she was just as worried as his mom about what happened which was why he had wanted to tell them to their faces but, thanks to Tori that didn't happen. She seemed curious about something and he had a sinking feeling he knew what or better yet WHO it was. He couldn't blame her though that's how they were they Looked out for each was no secret that Devin was his world ,nobody knew him like only down side to his work was that he didn't see her or his mother enough especially when she worked almost as much as he did. The highlight of it all was that he'd made the grave mistake of introducing her to Victoria.
"So…...Dish"
"Well ,I'm out on leave for at least four to six weeks an…."
" you know what I'm talkin about "
his sister cut in knowing he knew full well what she was talking about. He was avoiding the subject because he didn't like talking about his feelings he had always done remained quiet not that he didn't want to talk about Colby on the contrary he wanted to shout it from the rooftops but, he didn't want to get his family attached to another one of his boyfriends only to run him off like he always did when it got serious. He always ended up a little bit more broken when that happened.
" Well his name's Colby Lopez He's 28 a…."
"thank you Wikipedia , now tell me something that I can't Google about him"
Dom couldn't help but laugh ,sarcasm was yet another thing they had in common and he got sick enjoyment out of it. Before he could respond the waitress came and took their orders and left the siblings to finish their conversation.
"what do you want to know?"
"How long have you been dating?, what's he like? I've seen his picture you've chosen well that man is FINE"
" we haven't been on a date yet"
"WHAT...you draggin people into empty rooms and don't even buy them dinner" Dom was curious as to how she knew about that then it hit him...VICTORIA. He left himself a mental note to strangle her when his hand was better.
" we were supposed to go out the day I got hurt."
She heard the disappointment in his voice she could tell he was really into this guy. From what she had heard from Victoria Colby was really into her brother too. Knowing Dominic he was more than likely so buried in his work he hadn't even noticed.
"okay...well…. you got some free time now"
" But he doesn't "
Before she could respond they were once again interrupted by the waitress bringing their ate in relative silence occasionally talking between bites.
Well there we have chapter 10, quick FYI these next few chapters take place in Syracuse lots of*FAMILY DRAMA* and of course Everyone's favorite Couple.
