                         Third Person POV
          Everyone sat around in the Esposito living room with Carson standing up in front of everyone. "Kiera told me, she knew something bad would happen," Carson told everyone as they looked so depressed "Kiera met with me before she um passed. Asking me to do a few things for her if something did ever happen to her," one of Carson's men then handed him a backpack. "For her mother," Carson said handing the bag to Sandra, she opened the bag "50 thousand dollars in cash from her fights," he told them all. Sandra covered her mouth in shock "she also said to remind you to set three alarms not just one or none," Carson said tears swelled up in Sandra's eyes.
          "For Jazzy and Tony," Carson said as the same body guard handed him a box Carson walked up to Jazzy. Jazzy opened up the box and covered her mouth tears coming down her face "she said she isn't stupid. She knew you were pregnant before you even knew," Tony hugged Jazzy as she cried. Inside the box is one thousand dollars in cash with a cute Stitch baby onesie. "She said she got Stitch because of how much you two love that movie," Carson told Jazzy and Tony "for Clara," Carson said taking a small box from his bodyguard. "A picture of your first sleepover with Jazzy and Kiera. And a picture of you and Nick kissing in the ring together," Carson said as Clara opened the box up to take the photos out.
          "There is a second copy of the kissing picture for Nick," Carson said walking back to his bodyguard to get the next item as Nick rubbed Clara's back as she cried. "For Duke," said Carson grabbing two envelopes Carson walked up and handed one to Duke. Who opened it up as Carson spoke "a year of of free Kick Boxing lessons with her favorite teacher. She said you could use the help especially if you want to be as cool as she was," Duke had tears in his eyes as he nodded his head. "For the twins. Orion and Fred," Carson said handing them the next envelope "tickets to Italy. She knew how much you wanted to know her family. And she knew they'd have no problem letting you stay. But," Carson said grabbing an envelope from his bodyguard and giving it to them. "You have to deliver this to her Nonna for her," Orion nodded his head as Fred wiped away the tears staining his face.
          "For Preston," Carson said after grabbing a box from his bodyguard Preston opened it up and smiled "Kiera's steps on how to not be a dick," Preston said smiling with tears in his eyes. Everyone smiled for a moment not surprised that Kiera threw humor in this somehow. "For Tyler," Carson said handing Carson a small thin box Tyler opened it up "a piece of her heart and photos of you two and the group together," Tyler pulled out a terribly cut out red paper heart. That had the words I love you on it. "Kiera also wanted me to tell you all something including the boys," Carson said "go ahead Carson," Sandra said.
          Carson nodded as his bodyguard gave him a nod telling him, they can take it and that he could do it. Carson cleared his throat before reading "I don't even know how to start something like this," he read "this is pretty much my last words to you since I am dead. Which is probably something none of you want to hear, but it has to said. I love each of you. You all brought back a certain light in me that I lost long ago. Tony and Jazzy congratulations on your expecting arrival I hope she or he is as amazing as you two are. I just hope they don't have Jazzy's fast talking with no air problem," everyone laughed for a moment as Jazzy just smiled.
          "Duke, Tyler, Preston, Orion, and Fred. We hated each other when we first met and I still smile thinking about the times I whooped each of your asses," everyone smiled "but I am glad I got to know all of you and that we became friends. I wish I had gotten longer with guys so we could have become closer. But for the time I did have I am great full for. Clara.  When I met you, you were broken and lost. But now you are strong and truly in love. I hope you and Nick stay together forever. Nick hurt her and I will haunt you," everyone laughed for a moment once again.
          "Mom, I don't know if I got to tell you this but I love you. And thank you for always loving me even though I know I was a pain in your ass. I know it may seem hard now but it'll get better just like it did when Dad died. Just don't forget you still have some amazing boys that need you. So don't go looking for the alcohol. Don't go running away either. The boys are happy here. Speaking of my brothers though just know Ryan will probably never stop running his mouth. Quinton will always be there to lend a helping hand even if he is just as sad as you are. Charlie gets picked on a bit but I gave him a fun 3 warnings tip that Dad gave me. Of course I don't always stick to that but make sure he does. Alexander can be a bit scared of what others think and it can cause him to not help out his family. But always remind him that it doesn't matter what they think. It matter at what will happen to him if he doesn't help his family. Matty is still little and I can see a fighting spirit in him. Don't block it let it flourish.
"Ryan, Quinton, Charlie, Alexander, and Matty. Don't give mom a hard time. Ok? She is gonna need you guys help so help her alright. Support each other like Esposito do and always be there for the ones you love. Make sure you each follow your dreams and never let anything stop you. And I hope you don't hate me for leaving. I know you guys miss me and I miss you. But I will always be there for you. All of you including my friends. Because that's just the person I plan to be in the afterlife no matter where I go," Carson told everyone "I love you and I am here forever with you guys," he said he folded the letter up handing it to his bodyguard.
"She left one more thing for you guys," Carson said his bodyguard opened a big box and pulled out a black leather jacket. The bodyguard handed it to Carson, who held it walking up to Ryan "she gave me the money to have these made for you boys," Carson told the Esposito brothers. He turned the jacket around to reveal white leather with Esposito on the back. "She had these made in men's larges so you can grow into them," Carson said handing the jacket to Ryan, Ryan ran his fingers over the letters as tears swelled up in his eyes. "She always talked about doing this for all of us," Quinton said after taking his jacket from Carson "wish she could have gotten to where one," Ryan admitted. Sandra rubbed her son's back "I have to get going Sandra," Carson said she nodded her head and they all left.
"I knew she was a big softy," Jazzy cried clutching the onesie to her chest "you could never really tell," Clara said staring at the photos. "Until now," Sandra said they all nodded staring at their gifts she left them. Ryan swore to himself though that he was gonna be a UFC fighter that he knew Kiera would be proud of.
