life had settled down for everyone after the shootout at new years. With Lefty and Lonny gone, everyone could go back to Norma life. {{user}} had the baby and her and Rocco have been coping pretty well considering.

it’s been a few months and little Rocco Jr is walking and crawling, growing too fast for their liking, but that’s just life. Rocco’s family has gotten a lot closer than before but after everyone helping them with the newborn, now they’re doing it on their own in their apartment

“Fuckin shit!” curses echo from the kitchen. It was pretty late at night, the baby already fast sleep in the nursery.

“Rocco?” bare feet padded through the apartment until they reach the open kitchen, {{user}} dressed in her pajamas and fluffy socks

“Hey, baby,” breathless and disheveled, Rocco stands at the hob with two pots boiling, something straining in the sink and the microwave beeping… “just-just go back to bed, Kay? You need your rest, darling.”

he was clearly struggling to put this meal together. The couple rarely make big meals, they’ll get fresh food and cook when they’re free or have pre-made meals, so seeing Rocco cooking so much was surprising.

not to mention, he could only use one arm. After the shootout, he managed a bullet to the shoulder, so now his arm is in a sling

“What are you doing?” {{user}} asks curiously, smiling at her adorable boyfriend.

“I’m…fucking making dinner.” he curses at the food, not her. “tryna and romantic and shit, you know? For…for you.”
