Roman stepped out onto the typical New York weather. He was actually shaking but it wasn't because of the cold air. It was because he was nervous. It sounded very outrageous to fly to New York without even telling Renée that he was going to visit her. She was going to be surprised for sure but he was going to try his best to explain as much he could. He could only hope that she understood and better yet, that she loved him too.

Once he grabbed his bags from the gate, he went out and rented a car so he could get to Renée's apartment. Hopefully she was there already. Since he left after her, he didn't see why not though. Once inside the car, he turned on the GPS and typed in the address to the blonde's apartment. It was in place so he began to drive. As he listened to the GPS' instructions, he was starting to thinking of how to approach Renee with everything. He didn't want to say something and have her get the wrong idea. He couldn't think long though since in half an hour, he arrived at the apartment complex where she lived. He parked in the visitors area and got out the car...searching for the number 14 on every door.

Once he did find it, he walked up to the door and just stood there. He stood on his toes back and forth, extremely nervous. Stop being a pussy and just knock on the door. He thought to himself. Taking a need breath, he balled up his fist and knocked on the door three times rapidly.

Renée had just gotten out of the shower and changed into something comfortable when she heard a knock on the door. She furrowed her eyebrows, not expecting anyone; it was 1 in the morning so she was kind of freaked out. It irritated her because she just wanted to relax and watch some TV and eventually fall asleep. Slowly, she walked up to the door and looked through the hole and she couldn't believe who was standing on the other side of the door. It was Roman. What is he doing here? I thought he lived in Florida? How does he know where I live? She got startled a bit when he knocked again. Renée wasn't sure what the hell was going on but it was getting her extremely nervous. Her trembling hand reached for the doorknob and unlocked it before opening up the door slowly. Fuck, he looked so handsome like always; wearing a white buttoned up dress shirt with black jeans. Renée could clearly see the outline of his pecs through the thin white material of the shirt; his black hair tied into to a low pony tail. She gulped and looked him in the eye. "Roman?'' her voice cracked.

"Renée.'' he sighed. He couldn't even concentrate on what he was going to say anymore. The blonde was dressed in a baggy t-shirt with sweatpants. She had no make-up on but fuck, she still looked beautiful. Her damp blonde hair was tied up into a pony tail as well; it was pretty obvious that she had barely gotten out of the shower.

"I don't want to sound rude but, what are you doing here?'' Renée felt her heart beating so fast. She felt like it was about to combust. She was so taken back and she was nervous as hell. He should be in his own home with his fiancée and daughter. Instead, he was standing right in front of her doorstep.

"I know it's late. Sorry if I'm bothering you but-"

"You're not. I'm just wondering why you are here. Don't you live in Florida?'' she interrupted.

"Yeah, but I flew here instead. I umm, need to talk to you Renée. Can I please come in?'' he asked in the most sincere way. Renée nodded slowly and moved to the side so he could walk in. "I know it's strange that I'm here but I really need to talk to you.''

The blonde blew out a breath of air and nodded again. "Here, you can sit. Do you want something to drink?'' she asked as she gestured to the couch.

"Water please.''

When Renée reached the kitchen, she buried her face in her hands, shaking her head. Grabbing two glasses of water, she took a deep breath and walked back into the living room. She handed him the glass and then sat down next to him. "So, what's up?''

"I don't really know where to start.'' Roman admitted.

"What is it about?''

"I'm sorry for making you uncomfortable in front of the camera I guess?'' Roman shrugged. He wasn't even sure where this was going but he was trying.

"Uncomfortable? You don't make me uncomfortable. Not in a bad way at least.'' she mumbled.

"Not in a bad way? It doesn't bother you when..'' he trailed off.

"When...you flirt with me?'' Renée blurted out and the Samoan nodded. "No. You're just doing it for the cameras. Why would it bother me?'' she shrugged as she took a sip of her water.

"Yeah, that's kind of the problem.''

"What is?'' The blonde looked at him strangely.

"I'm..not just doing it for the cameras.'' Roman placed the glass of water on the coffee table then turned his body so he was facing Renée properly.

Renée raised an eyebrow. What did he mean by that? Idiot! It means he's flirting with you because he wants to! Renée talked to herself in her mind. She shifted uncomfortably and moved back a bit. She placed her water on the table as well and looked into his grey eyes. "I don't understand.''

Roman laughed nervously. "I don't know what happened but Renée...'' He moved closer to her and took her hands in his. This was it. He had to tell her straight out how he felt. He needed to know if the feeling was mutual. "I-I, Renée, I'm in love with you.'' he blurted out.

Renee's eyes widened. She pulled her hands back and stood up rapidly. "You, you what?'' he body language completely changed and Roman could tell she was freaking out and confused. He didn't blame her as well. He stood up and looked down at her.

"I love you Renée. I'm in love with you.'' he said softly.

"Liar, no you're not. You are engaged. Don't mess with me like this Roman, please.'' The Canadian shook her head and looked at him sadly. Surely this was a joke. She so badly wanted him to mean it but she felt like he didn't. It was so wrong and impossible.

"I'm not lying. Why would I fly over here just to lie? Renée, please tell me you feel the same way.''

"What's the point Roman? Even if I do, You. Are. Engaged. Nothing can happen.'' she said clearly.

"There is a point. Tell me you love me back...and I'll leave her.''

Renee couldn't help the chuckle. "Leave her? Please Roman, I would never ask you to do that. You have a daughter with her. I'm not doing this.''

"So you do love me back. You love me.'' Roman smiled.

"I'm not doing this Roman. Jessica-"

"Forget about her for just a second yeah?'' The Samoan grabbed her by the hips and pulled her forward so she was pressed up against his chest.

"Roman please...stop.'' she whined and looked away from him.

"Do you really want me to stop?'' he cupped her cheek and leaned closer. "Tell me that you love me. Say it.'' he pleaded.

Renee sighed and used all her power to get out of his arms. Her body instantly felt cold again. "I'm not that type of girl Roman. You should know that.''

"I do know that.'' he sighed. "Can't you just forget about her like I said. Pretend she doesn't exist at the moment.'' Roman felt like an asshole but he really needed Renée to tell him how she felt.

Renée bit her bottom lip and started crying. "Yes okay! I...I love you! I'm in love with you too.'' she choked out. Roman smiled and felt a rush of relief go through his body. He pulled her closer to him again and lifted her chin up with his index finger. He leaned in and captured her lips with his for the first time. Renee shuddered as their soft lips connected passionately. She grabbed his hands and placed them on her hips before bringing hers up to grip his large biceps. The kiss deepened and suddenly, they forgot about anything else; especially Jessica. Roman slithered his tongue inside Renee's mouth and connected it with hers. She moaned as she melted even more into the lip lock.

Roman wrapped a hand around her neck and pulled her closer; tilting his head to plunge his tongue even deeper into her mouth. She tasted so sweet and he felt himself getting addicted to her already. Her soft lips and warm tongue molded perfectly against his. He had never felt this way while kissing Jessica. Not even when they started dating years ago. Kissing Jessica was nothing like kissing Renée. It sent bolts of electricity through both of them. He growled when she pulled away with a faint moan.

"This is so wrong.'' she whispered.

"But feels so right doesn't it?'' he asked out of breath. Renee only nodded and kissed him hard. At this point, all the worries were pushed to the side and they were both on cloud nine; continuing to kiss like there was no tomorrow.
