Chapter 45 – Epilogue

Dom put the hamburgers on the grill in the backyard, listening to a mixture of the music in the CD player blaring out of the speakers and his families even louder talking. He closed the top of the barbeque, picked up his beer and went over to the bench where they all sat, talking like they hadn't seen each other in years when it had been less than a day.
"Christ," he sighed, sitting down on the bench. "With the way you guys talk, you'd think you hadn't spoken in eons instead of a damn day."
"Hey!" Serena protested, pointing at her brother. "I moved out ten months ago after I got married, okay. So don't give me shit."
"But you've been by everyday since,' he countered.
She huffed, "Don't act like you hate it. I know you miss having me around."
"Yeah, I miss carrying your heavy ass down the stairs every morning," he laughed and moved as she leaned across the table to hit him, slugging his shoulder.
Damon, pulled her back down by her belt loop and snaked his arm around is wives waist. "I don't think you have a fat ass honey, in fact you have a very nice ass as far as I've seen."
"Hey!" Dom lifted his eyebrows. "I warned you about saying that shit. Do you want me to remind you with my foot?"
Letty slapped his leg, "Leave 'em alone, Dom. You got your own wife to worry about."
Dom groaned and shook his head, laying it in his hand. "Between having a married sister, a wife, a pregnant sister, I'm glad I'm bald already or I'd be shedding hair."
Mia laughed, sitting next to Brian at the other end. "I'm moving out soon. All I gotta move is some more of my close and I'll be staying at Brian's with him. So the house will be quieter."
"Uh huh," Carissa added. "And me and Chaz never lived here so you can't bitch at us."
"You guys spent the night so many damn times you practically lived here,' he told her.
"Not since Serena moved, so you got the house to yourself."
"Yeah," Dom nodded and snorted. "I got Leo, Summer, and baby Shane living in the upstairs room. Ebony and Vince live in the basement, and Junior is now occupying Serena's old room, not exactly my ideal version of having the house to myself."
"Well," Chaz said with a suppressed laugh. "you certainly can't walk around naked."
"He could," Junior put in. "But for the sake of our sanity and vision he doesn't."
"Amen to that," Leon laughed.
"Leon, I could throw your ass out on the street in a heartbeat."
"But you won't," Leon told him.
'No, I won't throw your girlfriend or your sin out, but you, I can make an exception," he told him, taking another drink from his beer.
"Awe," Summer said with a smile, her blue eyes sparkling. She brushed a strand of blonde hair from her face. "Thanks Dom."
"Why don't you throw Junior or Vince out? Why always me?" Leon asked wondering why he was always picked on.
"Because you're so damn stupid it's fun," Serena joked, leaning against Damon.
Letty laughed, "Pray the baby is not like his father."
Leon ignored their comments. "Well?'
"Because Vince and Junior pay rent ever month. You don't," Dom pointed out. "Explain that."
Leon blinked, "I thought my ravishing good looks and charm were pay enough."
They all laughed at that. Leon smiled. "Okay, I thought Summer's beautiful looks were good enough."
Vince smiled and turned to Ebony who had healed fully from the wound a year ago. "Speaking of beautiful things." He cleared his throat. 'You know I love you Ebony. More than anything."
She nodded. "I know, Vince."
"Well, uhhh...," he cleared his throat again, nervous. "I…I loved you from the moment I saw you and…and I don't want to be with anyone else but you…" he fumbled in his pockets and took out a black box. "You're everything to me and uhh…Ebony…I love you and …and I want to spend my life with you…and…and I,'" he cleared his throat."
"Just say it already, Dumb ass," Carissa hissed.
Vince turned his head, hissing back. "Shut it, Rainbow Bitch." He turned back to Ebony. "Sorry bout that…but like I was saying…will…will you…," he cleared his throat again.
"Say it!" they all said, unable to take it anymore.
Vince laughed. "Ebony, will you marry me?"
She smiled, turning red. "Yes, of course I'll marry you Vince."
