“You know I would if I could.” I pulled her in again and gave her a kiss.
She left my arms and went over to each guest one at a time, hugging them and thanking them for being a part of this special moment. My parents were always happy to talk to her, and without their telling me how they felt toward her, I knew they loved her.
Dante left Hannah’s side and came to mine. “Congratulations.”
“Congratulations to you.”
“Thank you,” he said. “I’m very excited. And if you need a babysitter, call me.”
“You?” I asked incredulously.
“I raised a little girl all on my own, didn’t I?” He nodded toward her. “And look how she turned out.”
“True,” I said with a smile. “I’ll keep that in mind.”
He patted me on the back. “Thank you for everything. I know this moment wouldn’t be possible without the way you supported my relationship with Scarlett. Most men wouldn’t have tolerated me, probably would have killed me, but you had the grace to forgive me. You’re a very admirable man, and if my grandson is anything like you, he’ll be a fine man indeed.”
My eyes shifted away in discomfort. His words were appreciated, but the sentiment made me feel all sorts of things that were unwelcome. “Thank you for saying that.”
“Of course,” he said. “We’re a family.”
I nodded as I continued to watch Scarlett, making my father laugh with something cute she said. “Yeah…we’re a family.”
