I grinned. “Yes, baby?”

“Whose house is this and why are you opening the door?” she asked. I grinned wider. She looked like she was about to slap me, but I couldn’t stop smiling. “What did you do?”

I laughed at the look on her face. She was so fucking adorable.

“Dominic.” She glared at me as she brushed past me and walked into the house. She completely ignored everyone standing there and took it in, shaking her head, jaw on the floor. When she looked at me again, tears shone in her eyes. Her voice softened. “Seriously?”

I walked up and swept her into my arms. “Do you like it?”

“Like it?” she squeaked. I set her down slowly. “I love it. When did you do this?”

I took a deep breath. “This is only the second time I’ve been here.”

“When did you buy it?” she asked again.

“I started negotiating a while back.”

“When is a while back?” She narrowed her eyes.

“Monday after Thanksgiving.”

“You are . . . I can’t believe you.” She shook her head. “I mean, I can, because it’s you, but seriously, Dom? This is insane. It’s way too big for us.”

“It’s way too big for us right now.” I kissed her lips. “It won’t be way too big for us when we start a family.”

“Oh. A family?” She raised an eyebrow.

“What was it that you told me when I said it would be cute to see little Dominican-Italian babies running around?” Rocco asked. I shot him a look. He smiled. “Oh yeah, he said Rosie didn’t even want kids.”

Rosie laughed.

“It doesn’t matter. We can fill it up with dogs for all I care,” I said quickly. The minute she turned away, still laughing, I pointed at Rocco and mouthed, “I’m going to murder you.”

He laughed louder and went over to the kitchen where everyone else was pouring themselves drinks and ordering pizza.

“I really don’t care.” I turned to face her. “About the kids thing, I mean.”

“Hey, Dom.” She was smiling hard as she wrapped her arms around me. “I want kids. With you.”

I shut my eyes for a moment to settle my heart because I was pretty sure it was going to explode, and the nearest hospital was fifteen minutes away. When I looked at her again, I kissed her hard once, twice, three times.

“So you’re not mad at me?”

She looked around again, a happy sigh leaving her. “Do you know how much furniture we have to buy to fill this place?”

“Yep.” I kissed her forehead. “I’ll give you my card.” I raised my voice as I looked at Jimmy and said, “No spending limit.”

Everyone laughed hard, including Rosie, including me.

She looked up at me. “You know how some women are all ‘oh my gosh, I could never spend his money?’”

“I don’t know anyone who would say that.” I frowned but was still smiling. “Where is this going?”

“I’m not one of those women. You definitely need to give me a spending limit.”

I wrapped my arms around her again. “Why don’t we meet with Lorenzo, and he can go over finances and set a spending limit?”

“I thought you said he was a cheap bastard?” Rosie said.

Lorenzo threw his head back with what sounded like something between a groan and a chuckle. The sound of laughter bounced off the bare walls, and even though I wanted to savor that moment forever, I knew there were many more to come.
