**Dun ,Dun, DUN** we finally find out who was at the door ... this chapter was...wow to write even I don't know where it came from but , here it is . Thanks to ladyjade37,Rossi's Lil Devil,CallMeJoz and chefgirl1000 for reviewing it really means a lot to me.

"who is it?"

"It's Dawn and Denise"

"what the…." he cracked open the door and poked his head out to make sure he heard correct and sure enough his sisters were standing in the hallway.

" how do you know where I live?, and why are you here banging on my door at…." he paused to look back at the clock hanging in the living room "two o'clock in the morning people are trying to sleep"

"Wow, your sisters come to you at two in the morning and your first question is 'how do we know where you live' " Dawn shot back causing Dominic to roll his eyes

"come in"

He opened the door and allowed them in,thankfully his body had calmed the door he gestured her towards the lining room before following. They made themselves comfortable before talking.

"Sorry for being a jerk "

"It's ok ,how's the hand"

"a lot better,so I take it you didn't drive all the way here to talk about my hand"

"Your right …...Dad's…in the hospital" their mood changed the second Denise finished that made Dominic feel bad. . . . not because his 'sperm donor' was in the hospital, the man was barely in his life and when he DID show up all he did was argue with his mother and leave he felt bad because they was so torn up over it. Clearly the father THEY knew was a lot better than the 'run away daddy' he had.

"...I'm …..Sorry?

"What the hell do you mean SORRY!?" Dawn ,couldn't believe her ears thinking that of ALL people he would have cared.

"Keep it down" Dominic said through clenched teeth looking back at his door making sure they didn't wake Colby.

"what the hell do you mean sorry?" she repeated in a quieter voice

". . . . what do you want me to say?" Denise looked thoroughly confused. like she couldn't believe he didn't care.

"he's your father too JUNIOR!" yes as much as he hated to admit it he was in fact a junior, outside of his immediate family and his bosses nobody else knew.

" I'm sorry, I just can't make myself feel sadness I barely know him my professors in College were more involved in my life than he was. . . . . what happened?"

"He was fine yesterday, then our mom called at ten last night and said he collapsed so they rushed him to the hospital, the doctor said he had a stroke ….." She finished and Dawn broke down. Dom pulled Dawn close and rubbed her back in attempt to calm her down sudden realization hit him.

"Wait. . . you drove ALL the way from Rochester at two in the morning to tell me this"

"ACTUALLY dad and mom live in North Syracuse Dawn lives in Rochester they brought him over to Upstate because they have an amazing stroke care center there he's stable now and he told us where you lived so we decided to come let you know what's going on….. and…...dad asked to see you"

"Sorry you wasted your time…."

The sound of his bedroom door opening caused the distraught woman to jump back.

"Goodmorning, I hope we didn't wake you" Dawn greeted Colby with a tearful smile.

"Goodmorning" Denise greeted as well.

Colby could tell without a doubt that these women was related to Dominic they had the same eyes and even though they had tears in their eyes he knew that smile.

"No , not at all. . . Dom ,don't be rude who are these lovely ladies?" He stated as he walked over to the living siblings stood as he approached them.

"Colby these are my sister Denise and Dawn ladies this is my…my..." he stopped and looked over at Colby for help honestly having NO idea where they stood.

"I'm his boyfriend Colby and it's a pleasure to meet you " Dom smiled at Colby before looking back at his sisters.

" it's nice to meet you too Colby I take it you heard the news about our father"

"yeah I'm very sorry to hear that , If there's anything we can do let us know"

Denise gave Colby another sweet smile. Colby made coffee and the four all sat and talked . Another knock at the door interrupted the talk. Colby stopped Dom as he went to answer the door stating that he needed to went to take a cautious sip of the hot liquid but ended up taking a huge sip when he saw Devin walk in more than likely she was on her lunch break and didn't want to buy anything.

"Good morning y'all … " Devin greeted acknowledging everyone in the room before turning to Dom

"Morning Tramp" Devin personally said to Dom while smiling devilishly.

"What's Going on and why am I receiving calls from Grandma at two in the morning?" She got straight to the point figuring their sisters had something to do with it.

Colby was partly amazed Dom had briefly talked about his sisters and he knew they were all a couple years apart but, if he didn't know better he would swear they were triplets. all of them were what he would guess 5'7" with black hair and caramel colored eyes and hazelnut colored skin great cheekbones and though they had different body types and even if he personally thought Dom was by far the most attractive they were all perfectly proportioned and gorgeous in their own right.

"Colby this is Devin. Devin behave please " Dominic Introduced Colby to Devin (he regretted that the second she pulled Colby into a tight hug and started in about marriage) Colby Excused himself to go back to bed and Dom excused himself a few minutes later to brush his teeth , he knew his breath was a bit tart , he could taste it he hated the taste . Dom came back a short while later and the atmosphere in the room had drastically carefully he didn't want to but he asked anyway.

"What happened?" he stated flatly

"What happened is that our father is sick and Devin is waltzing around like she don't even care."

" I refuse to go see him when he never even bothered to do the same"

"Devin calm down. . . YES it is sad and it pains me to see you so sad I wish I could take your pain away I know this is a difficult time for you. but the man YOU knew and the man WE knew weren't .the .same .person. He never made sure their was food on OUR table , OUR mother did ,he never made sure we had a roof over our heads OUR mother did, he came by maybe once a month and that was just to argue with my mother he barely ever acknowledged us it was me and my mother that put her through nursing school NOT HIM the best thing he ever did was leave"

the room was silent Dominic himself didn't know he held that much hostility towards his father once he'd calmed down he felt a lot lighter.

"wow, dad never…..we didn't I'm"

"don't be sorry" Devin cut in they'd heard that a thousand times and she didn't want to hear that again.

" Everyone relax ,now isn't the time for that"

Dawn and Denise merely nodded, Devin rolled her eyes but after a few minutes Dominic managed to convince her to comply. The siblings talked for a while longer before Devin announced she had to go back to work but,promised to stop by afterwards . Dawn and Denise also left soon after.

"4:00a …..more sleep sounds good" He'd always thought Devin was unbearable alone after dealing with his sisters Dom felt like he could could sleep for a week. He smiled when he walked into his room and saw Colby spread across the bed on his stomach watching tv.

"comfortable?" Dom questioned not hiding the humor in his looked at him and smiled.

"Very, this bed is AMAZING"

"I move over after the week I had and now having to deal with THAT" He pointed towards the living room "I need . . . . no I DESERVE more sleep" Colby moved over allowing Dom to slide in before cuddling up to his side Dom wrapping his arm around the younger man bringing him closer.

"no offense but your sisters are. . . . wow"

"Yeah all these years I thought Dev was bad on her own, I'm kinda glad they didn't grow up together Dawn and Denise ain't too much better. now do you see why I choose to work in solitude."

"not really much Solitude at work with AJ and Victoria. . . . and Nikki but, at least you got me"

"Speaking of which" Colby had introduced himself as his boyfriend to his sisters and he wanted to know what that was turned his head so that he could look in Dom's eyes before leaning in and giving him a mind numbing kiss ,when Colby pulled away he looked back into Dom's eyes before responding.

"Because I said so"he never thought his brain could shut all the way down, his mind couldn't tell him speak let alone nod it took a moment but his brain finally 'rebooted" allowing him to speak a small 'ok' was all he could muster before he leaned in and recaptured Colby's lips. Sliding his tongue into his mouth the second he allowed. Dom didn't know if it was instinct, lust or a flashback from his dream earlier but, he didn't want to neither did Colby ,A moment later he felt the younger man tugging his arm until he was fully on top before locking his legs around his back and his arms around his neck holding him in place.

Dom broke the kiss only to begin trailing kisses down Colby's neck enticing a moan a particularly sensitive spot just behind Colby's ear earning a louder moan. he felt move his arms using one to hold his head in place and the other to grab his ass and began rocking his hips against his to say sleep was long forgotten in favor of something more…..Relaxing.

*Gasp* he said it OMFG *swoon* 'Dominic has a boyfriend'... and, Ain't Devin a trip. Tell me what you think
