April's POV

"You know I still didn't show you where the bathroom is." Spoke Roni as I pulled out of our kiss. We have been laying on her bed making out for quite some time now. I'm not sure how long we've been kissing I lost track of time a while ago. Trust me I've tried pulling away but every time I tried to stop my eyes would meet her eyes and then I feel the need to press my lips to hers again. It's not like I mind it though her lips taste like peppermint and I am absolutely loving it.

"What's so good about the bathroom?" I questioned since she randomly brought it up.

"The heated tiles?" I just gave her a look. She knows I could careless about heated tiles. "Nothing I just need an excuse for you to get off me. At the rate we're going now you're going to get yourself into trouble and I don't want things between us to go so fast. So you leaning over me right now isn't helping my cause."

"Well maybe you shouldn't wear such a tasty chapstick flavor." I sassed as I climbed off her. Can't really get mad at her for that I don't want our relationship to move too quick either. None to mention it's going to take some time for me to get use to the idea of someone who isn't Zivile touching me. Besides I learned the hard way that sex complicates things.

"Sorry not sorry. But come let's go start dinner." She spoke as she stood up and helped me off the bed. "Is it okay with you if I use our experiment for my next video? It's okay if you don't want to I'll understand. Besides I'm not exactly sure if it will be oka-" I interrupted her by kissing her again.

"Sure we can film it as long as I have a say in what gets edited out." I bargained.

"Great I can't wait to see what my fans will think of you." So then from there we headed back downstairs to the kitchen where Roni told me all the ingredients we need so I could get them as she set up the camera and lighting. I gotta say seeing her set all that stuff up makes me reconsider the way I see YouTube videos. "Kay now that it's all set up the first thing we gotta do is my intro."

"Okay well it's my video so we're going to do my intro." I spoke simply. If I'm going to be in one of her videos I might as well make it the best one ever.

"Yea but last time I checked this an episode of Cooking with Roni not Cooking with Aj." She said all knowingly. All that did was trigger a devilish grin from me I think she is so sexy when she is starting to get competitive.

"Well then you should have thought about that before you asked me to star in your video. Anyway is it recording?" I asked simply pointing to the camera.

"Yea, but you're a guest on m-"

"Hello and welcome to Aj's kitchen where it's my kitchen and not Roni's!" I spoke over her. Judging by the glare she just gave me I know I'm going to have a blast messing with her.

...

"You know I gotta admit adding the blue food coloring to the noodles was a pretty genius idea." Roni smiled before eating a fork full of spaghetti.

"Food coloring makes everything better. Although you are probably going to have blue fingers for the next couple days." I giggled being I made her mix the dough after I added the dye. Regardless I wouldn't have mixed it anyway I don't like the feeling of sticky goo on my hands.

"Yea but it was worth it. I mean even though you really annoyed me I had a lot more fun than I thought I would. Minus the fact we got flour everywhere." She half smiled as she grabbed my right hand. Right now we are sitting at her dining table and she is sitting in the chair to the right of me. It's probably almost eleven at night right now. Making fresh pasta from scratch is very time consuming by itself. Then add two people who tend to mess around with each other and goof around it's going to take longer than expected.

"You're telling me who knew cooking would be so much fun. To be honest I don't think I need to do abs next time I go to the gym because I laughed so much that my stomach hurts. Anymore laughter my guts might just explode out my stomach."

"Yea I can't wait to look at all the footage tomorrow when I edit it. It's going to be a good one I know it."

"Well then I'll accept my thank-you now." I grinned

"Cocky much? We don't even know if the people will like you yet."

"That doesn't matter I'm cute so it's hard not to like me." She's just staring at me not saying anything just looking. "What?! Is there something on my face?" I asked in a concerned manner. I don't like when people do that to me.

"No there's nothing on your face.. It's just I think I caught feelings for you and I'm not sure if I should keep them or let them go." She murmured looking at the floor then looking up at me when she finished talking. Hearing her say that made me blush I feel like a little school girl who's just found out her crush likes her back.

"Well I think it'd be pretty unfair of you to let them go when I caught my feelings for you." It's not a lie ever since we met I've always felt something for her. And from then to now and all our little talks in between only made my feelings for her grow stronger. Then what just happened between Zivile and I only made me want to focus all my attention on Roni.

"So then I guess we are both on the same page now?"

"Yes I believe we are."

"Hmm..." Then from there we went into a comfortable silence beside the ringing of the bell that rings whenever Tator-Tot moves. I wonder what she's thinking about because she let go of my hand and now she's playing with her spaghetti. It worries me because there isn't really anything left on her plate. "Hey do you want to watch a movie or something?" She asked randomly. "I can fire up the projector and we can have a little movie date in the living room."

"That sounds good to me. But is it okay if I use your shower first? I'm covered in flour and sweat not really the sexiest of conditions."

"Yea that's fine just make sure you don't leave your wet towel on the floor because it will mess with the tiles." She spoke as she grabbed our plates and walked them over to the sink.

"You weren't kidding about the heated tiles were you?" She shook her head no. "Okay well I'll make sure to keep my wet towel off the floor."

"Thank you. Anyway I'll clean up here and by the time you get back Cinema Del Roni will be open for biz." She grinned. She is such a nerd.

"Why are you so weird?"

"I'm not weird I'm just above average!" She stated confidently.

"Keep telling yourself that kid." I answered as I started my way up the stairs. "And before I go where do you keep the towels?"

"In the bathroom. I'm sure you'll find them while you're going through all my stuff."

"Kay thanks." I can't argue with her there. I probably am going to go through all her stuff. Then again who wouldn't I mean I'm in the apartment of a person whose apartment takes up two whole floors, and a projector in her living room to watch tv on. Hell yeah I'm going to try and see what other crazy contraptions she has in here. Her bathroom is connected to her room to the left of her walk-in closet. It was very comforting in the bathroom being it's a very calm mint green in there. She wasn't kidding when she said the tiles were heated because when I walked in it felt like I was walking on the warm ground barefoot during the summer. Don't even get me started with the shower.. Just from looking at it you can tell Roni must be one squeaky clean girl. I say that because the shower is square, there was the main shower head attached to the wall. Then higher above that on the ceiling is another shower head that rains down water. But my overall favorite thing about the bathroom is the amazing skyline view. It's off in the distance but you can see the lights shining bright. I guess that's the reason she chose this place.

Yea I know I'm considering moving in with her too. I need to take note of this so when I go home I can get a shower like this. Not sure how long I was in there because it was really relaxing just letting the water run down my body. But in my bliss I managed to wash my hair and wash up. It was even better getting out because the cold chill you get when you step out of a hot shower was quickly forgotten about when my feet hit the floor. Anyway from there I put on a pair of my pajama shorts and a crop top. I left my hair down to air dry and because I don't feel like putting it up. I then went back downstairs to find Roni standing in the kitchen pouring something in two cups.

"Did you enjoy your shower?" She asked looking up at me.

"Yes I did. It was really hard for me to find the power to actually get out." I responded walking over to her. I then gave her a peck on the lips getting her to smile.

"Well I can tell. You were gone long enough for me to finish cleaning up here and take a shower of my own."

"Wait you have another bathroom?" Seriously the surprises never end with her.

"Yea there's only two bathrooms and two bedrooms. I told you this place is unnecessarily big for no reason, but I'm not complaining though. It leaves more room for activities!" She smiled widely. She is so adorable I don't even know what to do.

"You really are something else. Anyway what's this?" I asked taking a cup and drinking it.

"Mixed berry and lemonade Kool-aid. It was always my favorite drink as a kid."

"Ugh it's so sugary but it's so good!" I groaned this is going to throw off my diet. "I guess it doesn't matter how old you are when it come to Kool-aid it's hard to say no." I then took another sip. "Little warning this might just keep me up all night." I murmured as I walked into the living room where there were a bunch of pillows on the couch and two blankets.

"Well then I guess it's going to be an all night movie-thon." She spoke from somewhere behind me. I then heard her moving around before she appeared on the other side of the room. "You can sit wherever doesn't matter. I figured we can go thru OnDemand first to see what movies are on there and go from there."' She shrugged placing her cup on the coffee table as she sat down. Once seated she grabbed the universal remote and fiddled with it for a bit. Suddenly the lights slowly dimmed until they were off, and the blinds went down over the windows.

"Well damn does it cook you breakfast too?" I asked in astonishment. Who knew a little black tablet could be capable of doing so many things.

"No I wish, besides I'm my own cook."

"True. Anyway what are we gonna watch first?" I asked sitting down on the couch.

"I dunno what do you want to watch? The possibilities are pretty much endless here."

"Okay well what type of movie do you think we should watch?"

"Probably a comedy."

"Well then let's see what comedies they have." We then began to go through all of the comedy movies. Eventually we decided on watching Despicable Me 2. I don't even care those little minions are so damn cute and I wish they were real because I want them all. Even the crazy purple ones they'll be perfect for the Aj Lee family and they can all be crazy together. It was a really cute funny movie, I especially liked the part with the minions... I had fun because somewhere during the movie Roni moved so we were spooning and she held me as we watched. It's been so long since I've had someone hold me as we watched a movie that I couldn't quite get comfortable at first, but after a few minutes I was able to get comfy. After that movie we watched half of another movie before we decided to go to bed. When she said after a long day and your face hits the pillow you instantly fall asleep she wasn't kidding. I remember laying down and giving her a goodnight kiss then the next thing I know me and her were climbing up the side of Big Ben.

The next morning

I awoke to the smell of cinnamon rolls. I don't even care what she's cooking because I'll probably eat it anyway. So listening to the grumbling in my stomach I put on my glasses and headed downstairs. When I got down there I couldn't help but smile because I saw probably the cutest thing ever. That and because it's a relationship goal. Roni had her back facing me and she was cooking on the stove. What made it cute was she was just in an oversized t-shirt and a pair of black underwear that read 'Spank Me' on the butt. I've always dreamed of waking up to something like this and here it is in front of me. I honestly really could get use to waking up like this every time I get time off from being on the road. Before I could reach the bottom of the steps Tator was already there to greet me. So I picked him up.

"Morning Tator! It's nice to see you too." I giggled being he was purring and rubbing his head against my chin. He really is so adorable with his little ears and giant eyes. Add to that the fact he is so small and only has three legs makes him all the more of a cutie. I then walked him over to his play castle and sat him down on it. From there I walked over to Roni.

"Morning Star shine." She smiled. "Sleep well?" I then decided to sit on the countertop next to her. She's making pancakes.

"Like a baby now I understand why you got that bed it's heavenly."

"I don't play when it comes to sleep." I then leaned in and kissed her.

"Whatcha cooking?"

"Well Thursday is gym day so cinnamon roll protein pancakes! I figured you'd probably want to tag along so I made you some too." She then opened the oven and pulled out a plate that had a three stack of pancakes on it and handed it to me. "Here you are ma'am."

"Well you assumed right, these smell and look delicious. I gotta say you are probably one of the best cooks I know." It's true first is my grandma followed by my mom and now Roni.

"Well thank you. Anyway the topping is in the microwave over there." She spoke nodding her head over nearby the fridge. That confused me because I don't see a microwave anywhere. So I gave her a questioning look. She quickly caught on and the walked over in the direction she nodded. She then stopped in front of part of the counter and pushed a button and a drawer slid out. "It's a drawer microwave I'm not going crazy." She shrugged grabbing out a bowl then pushing another button causing the drawer the close.

"Just when I thought this place couldn't get anymore cool." I stated. I honestly thought that was some sort of fancy trash incinerator or something like that.

"It's not that deep. Here put that on top of your pancakes." She then handed me the bowl then went back to flipping a pancake. So I hopped off the counter and sat at the breakfast bar on the other side of the island in the kitchen. Like she said I poured what I assume a glaze over top of my pancakes. By this time Roni finished cooking and placed her plate on the counter facing me. "That's nothing fancy. It's just a simple glaze, powder sugar and water mixed together then heated up so its easier to pour." She said simply handing me a knife and fork. So I gave her the bowl of glaze.

"Well let's hope it's good." I smiled cutting myself a piece and she did the same.

"Cheers." And with that we both ate some. It tasted just like a cinnamon roll. Yea I can so get use to this if she cooks me food this good. Like I said before there's nothing better than having good food and someone to cook it for you.

Thirty minutes later

"No that part is staying in, your face is hilarious!" I laughed pointing to the computer screen. After we finished eating we came upstairs and began to edit last nights footage.

"Fine but if we keep that you're cleaning up this morning's mess in the kitchen." She bargained.

"Okay fine whatever." No I'm not I might just get a phone call then.

"You're lying."

"Am I?" I challenged looking her in the eyes, right now they are brown.

"You're lucky I like you." I just smiled. "You jerk."

"You love it." She just rolled her eyes at me before turning back to look at the screen. She then pulled up YouTube and began to upload the video. "Aren't you going to watch it before you post it?"

"Nope. I don't have time to proof watch it before I post it. Only nerds proof watch their videos before posting." She said simply.

"What if there's an error somewhere in it?"

"Oh well. Anyway what should we title it?" I know she won't agree with the title I want so I grabbed the keyboard and typed in what I wanted. Lucky me I use to be a secretary in an office building so I can type pretty fast. Before she had a chance to protest I clicked the post button. "Really?!" She complained getting me to laugh. "Cooking with Aj not Roni. Of all the names possible you chose that one?"

"Well I knew you wouldn't like it so I did it anyway." I smiled.

"Whatever I'll just change it later." She sassed.

"Change it and I'll never talk to you again." I spoke in a serious tone. But that's a lie she's too good to just let go over something so small.

"Okay you win." She spoke putting her hands up in surrender. It was then that Tator hopped up on the desk knocking over a picture frame and it fell onto the floor. "Damn it Tate!" She yelled pushing him off the desk.

"Hey don't yell at him it was an accident!" I growled at her. She then glared at me. "He's just a baby, he didn't know any better." I cooed going over to pick him up.

"But he knows he isn't supposed to be on the table." She complained.

"I don't care that's no reason to yell at him. Look now he's scared." I spoke as he cuddled up in my arms and is slightly shaking. "Poor baby it's okay I won't let the mean lady hurt you." I cooed before picking up the picture frame. When I looked at the photo it was, I assume, an old family photo because at the bottom it has 'The Clemenza Family 1989' in the center of the photo was a Caucasian man sitting next to a light skinned African American woman and a little girl sitting on her lap with two boys sitting in front of them. "Is this you?" I asked handing her the photo.

"Yea it's an old photo from when I was like three. The blue eyed white guy is my dad he is an Italian American, and the lady sitting next to him is my mom she's African American but she was born in Canada. My grandfather was a very important business guy and had a lot of business in both America and Canada. So it required him to travel between America and Canada and often times my dad would tag along with him. My dad was an only child being my grandmother was murdered before they had a chance to have any other kids. And my grandfather was a loving man he never remarried fearing something like that might happen again. When you're in the kind of business my family is in and the head of the family you tend to have a lot of people who would rather see you dead than alive. So after my grandmother died he became stone hearted, as my dad described him to us. So whenever he thought one of his men or clients were trying to cross him they often ended up with cement shoes. Unfortunately one day he fitted the wrong guy with cement shoes and someone sabotaged his private jet and it blew up upon take off to Canada. Luckily my dad wasn't on the plane, so being the only son he had to take over the family business. That all happened sometime after my dad turned twenty two. So he basically did what his father did going between Canada and America for business. Then one day while in Canada my dad was at a business dinner where he saw my mom. And he asked to take her out on a date then the rest is history. Fast forward a bit out popped my oldest brother Carlo." She then pointed to the boy on the left. "Then came Vito." She then pointed to the boy on the right. "And then me Veronica." She spoke pointing to the little girl. "So I'm half Italian and half Black. At first my dad's family wasn't too happy with him getting married to a woman who isn't of Italian descent but loving hard is a trait that runs through my family and my dad loved my mom like the sky loves the moon at night as my dad described it to us." She grinned looking at the photo.

"I'm sorry to hear about your grandparents." I spoke softly.

"Nah it's okay all that happened years before I was alive so it doesn't really hurt me too bad. Plus I still have my mom's parents."

"If you don't mind me asking what exactly is the family business? I mean it sounds like some serious stuff that goes on." When I finished that question she briefly looked up at me and then back at the photo before placing the photo back on the desk. She then let out a sigh and turned to look at me.

"I think it's best I don't answer that question honestly. I don't want you to think I'm anything like them because I'm not. I'm really into you Aj and I don't want to be the reason behind if you were to somehow get hurt because of my last name." She spoke looking me in the eyes. See the thing I like most about Roni is she is always honest. "The last time I did that it didn't end well on my part. A lot of stuff happened that shouldn't have. Just trust me when I say you don't want to know what the Clemenza family business is."

"Okay." That, to some degree, throws up some red flags but if she says it's best I didn't know I'm not going to argue with her. Last time I pushed to get the answer I wanted I ended up paying over fifteen hundred in property damage. Some things really are meant to be kept in the dark so that's where Roni's family will stay with me.

"Seriously let's just leave it at my dad is a very high ranking businessman who has a networking branch worth millions." Oh well see now all this makes sense of why she has all these cool expensive things in her apartment. Daddy's little girl gets what she wants. I didn't think she could have bought all that on just a baker's salary... Then again how much income she gets is really none of my business. I'll probably find out sometime in the future if we end up together.

"Okay I can live with that. Anyway now what are we going to to?" I asked changing the subject.

"Well after I upload I either go hang with my friends or go to the gym. I haven't really talked to any of my friends since Tuesday so we are headed to the gym. So we should go change and then we can head out." She spoke effortlessly as she got up and headed to her room. I put Tator down and followed her being my clothes are all in her room.

Once we were both changed and ready to go to the gym we left for the gym. When we went down to the lobby there was a different guy down there. His name was Sonny and he was dressed in a suit also. Another weird thing is he called her boss also... Not exactly sure what to think of that, maybe it's just a nickname they gave her. But what makes me think that isn't true is because he asked her where we were going, and if he should come with us. She said no but does that mean those guys are her bodyguards? Why would she need bodyguards anyway I mean I don't think being a YouTuber can be that dangerous. Then again could it be because of who her dad is? I mean she is a millionaire's only daughter so I guess that could make her a target for kidnap and ransom. Or maybe she just wants to make sure nobody tries to break into her apartment. I dunno it's really none of my business so I'm just going to leave it at that. Luckily for me she has a membership to a Gold's Gym so we didn't have to try and sneak in there.

We were probably at the gym for two hours give or take. I'm not entirely sure because when we got inside she kissed me on the cheek and we went our separate ways. Once I put in my earbuds and start going I get lost in what I'm doing and keep going until I hurt beyond my ability to handle it. So I ended up doing that again this time until Roni came over and got me. Then from there we got smoothies and headed home. There Roni and I cooked lunch together we had grilled chicken with broccoli and rice. We didn't record it or anything just enjoyed cooking with each other. I dunno but I almost don't want to go back on the road if I can just hang out here with her. This might be crazy but I really think me and Roni will be cute together as a couple. There's only one person whose approval I need about Roni and quite frankly I miss her. I haven't talked to Layla since I left Tampa the other day so it's due time that I gave her a call. Not right now though because we are finishing up the movie we started last night. Only this time we are watching it in her room because I'd rather lie down in a bed then to be on a couch.

"Well it appears that my people seem to really like you." She spoke looking at her phone. Right now she's just laying on her back and I figured I'd lay next to her and rest my head on her chest. "I'm reading some of the comments on the video and they are all pretty positive so far."

"I told you they would love me. What are they saying?" I asked turning to my stomach so I could look up at her.

"I think I just fell in love with these two. It's like we love Roni but now it's like she found herself a miniature clone and it's adorable!"

"Ha!"

"Yeah that one has like almost a hundred likes. Here's another one. Seriously I think I ship these to more than peanut butter and jelly. Aj and Roni are so adorbs! And that one has a couple likes too. Then this one I really like. So when can we expect a girlfriend tag?" She smiled looking at me.

"That's actually a good question but my job won't exactly allow me to do that right now. You know with the storyline and everything." I frowned remembering that according to the storyline Aj and Aksana are supposed to get back together sometime after I return.

"Yeah I know I remember. And it's stupid if you ask me." She murmured looking at her phone. I couldn't help but to let out a light chuckle, she is so adorable when she is jealous.

"Hmm sounds to me that someone might be a little jealous." I taunted tapping her nose. Getting her to shake her head and glare at me.

"No I'm not."

"But I think you are. You just want me all for yourself never to have to share." I grinned.

"No that's not even true." She stated matter of factly but all it did was make me smile.

"You don't like the fact that I have to pretend to be all over my ex when I get back to work. And I know somewhere in that head of yours you want me all for yourself." I smiled. To that she put down her phone and quickly moved so she was straddling my hips. I couldn't stop laughing as she did so being I know I'm making her mad.

"And what are you going to do if it's true?" She growled in a sexy low tone as she pinned my shoulders down.

"I dunno well answer me this question Veronica. Are you or are you not jealous about my storyline?" I asked simply but she's just staring at me. I know it's a yes but I know she'll never admit it to me. "I'll take that as a yes. Next question do you want me for your own selfish ways?" I purred looking her in the eyes. I can't quite see what color they are right now because it's dark besides the TV, so I can't tell what she's thinking.

"And just what are you going to do if it's a yes April?" She purred leaning down closer to me. Well she asked and actions speak louder than words so I put my hands on her hips and sat up to meet her lips in a very much needed kiss. Only this time I put more emphasis in it to let her know my answer. Also because the way she is purring and grinding on my lap is turning me on and I gotta get rid of some of my pent up sexual aggression. Once we were both breathless I pulled away and looked at her.

"Does that answer your question or was it not clear enough?"

"I don't think it was clear enough that time." Okay, so I wrapped my arms around her waist completely and started making out with her. I know she's feeling it because she wrapped her arms around my neck. It's like I said before I could get use to this.

Im sorry but you can't tell me that wasn't kinda cute! I mean I had fun reading that. Aj and Roni are so cute together I almost feel like I should make them their own story outside of this one, if you would like to see that let me know because I think I just might. Tbh I'm low key jello of Roni's apartment like that is a life goal right there. Then we learn more about Roni herself... What in the hell is the Clemenza family business and why is she so secretive about it? Of course she comes from a rich family it only makes sense right. But whatever the family business is it's good to know more about her background. And yes if you are wondering I decided to make Roni a light skin. Yea she isn't completely white only half. It occurred to me that I wanted her to be part black probably three months after I posted the chapter when I first introduced her to this story. Remember when I said certain things have to happen in order for a sweet revenge? Well Aj's time with Roni plays a big part in it so that is why I'm writing out all this Aj/Roni fluff. So to my Leeana supporters I'm sorry just hang in there with me for a few more chapters. Don't hate me quite yet save it for a future part in this story. This is nothing compared to the storm about to slap you in the face.

Kay I've said too much. I'm going to go eat some apple pie because I'm wearing my hero cape so I can do that. Yea I have my own custom cape, has my own emblem with my initials in the center. Hell yeah be jealous! ~Joz #upFUCKit
