Chapter 18

It has been a month and a half since I had moved in with the mafia bosses and two weeks since I moved into the mansion with them. Lethe and Mnemosyne had bought me a cool black skateboard with white hearts. Yep I did skateboard! Currently I had turned the mansion into a skating park. "You seem to be having fun." Xavier said as I flopped down on the large sofa, completely out of breath. "I guess living here is not so bad." I said "I'm hungry after all that energy gone to waste." I got up and started to walk towards the kitchen. "Hold it!" Geovanni said and I turned around to face him "We've got bad news bambina." I was used to being called that. "What?" I asked putting my hands on my hips "We're going out to the movies tonight but you can't come." Cristiano explained "Why not?" I asked furiously "Because we can't risk you getting spotted by the Swedish." Jianan shrugged "And why can't you watch a movie at home?" I questioned "Nah. We want out." Xavier said I scoffed and stomped away furiously and the boys looked at each other puzzled. I didn't even look at them or even bother talking to them for the rest of the day or as they got dressed that night to go. "Are you mad at me dea?" Xavier asked tilting up my chin to look at him as the others went out the door Hinako was going with them because she wasn't wanted. I turned away from him and sat down hard on the chair and folded my arms and clenched my jaw. I didn't look at him and he could tell I was mad at him. FURIOUS WITH HIM!!! He sighed and left and I heard the door close. I hated being in high demand! I sat there fretting for a while then flicked on the TV and watched a few movies then flicked through the channels and stop at a cooking show. I then remembered something when I saw pie. I had promised Xavier I'll make him limone pie. I ran into the kitchen and flung the fridge and cupboards open and found everything I would need. I would make him the best lemon meringue pie ever! I took the things out the fridge and cupboards and laid them out on the counter then got a big bowl out of the cupboard then set to work on the crust. You had to bake the pie in layers. I mixed the pie crust then put it in the bottom of the pan about a ¼ inch thick. I took a fork and poked holes in it then baked that for twenty two minutes. While that was baking I worked on the lemon filling. I took out the crust and let that cool a little then poured in the filling and placed that back into the oven for another 35-45 minutes then took it out and let it cool completely then mixed the meringue and did some fancy decorations like it was a cake then left it there in the fridge. I was tired out and I fell asleep on the couch. Xavier's POV I knew Ro was mad at me and I hoped she wasn't when I came home that night. We had a blast at the movies. When I got home I found her asleep on the couch when I got back and the TV was on. I shook my head and crossed over and turned off the TV. I sat down on the ground next to Royalty as the others went up the stairs laughing and pulled her curly hair away from her face. Her lashes were really long and she looked so beautiful sleeping there. I decided to take a yogurt up to my room. I went into the kitchen and stopped when I saw the silver covering on the table we had in the middle of the kitchen. I went over to it and opened it and gasped at what I saw. Limone pie! Royalty! She made this while we were gone. We had a deal and she kept her word. I wanted to taste it but I decided not to just yet. I took up the plate and put it in the fridge, grabbed a yogurt and walked out. I pushed the yogurt in my pocket and then picked up Royalty bride style. She was pretty light. I carried her up to her room and laid her down on her bed, covered her then left. I woke up the next morning to my favorite girls pulling the silk curtain open from over the glass wall. One slid open the glass door and a rush off cool breeze greeted me. Another one was stacking my papers neatly on my table and one was packing up my bookshelf. I opened my eyes and sat up. "Good morning Maestro Xavier." one said "Buone signore mattina." I said running my fingers through my tangled hair "Ottenere la vasca idromassaggio pronta ." One went and did ask I said and I lay back down on my bed and waited. I remembered the limone pie. I couldn't wait to taste that. "Silvia." I called getting up and the girl at the book shelf turned to me "Si maestro?" she asked "Send Royalty to me and tell her bring some of the pie and bring breakfast for two while you are down there." I said and Silvia went off I went into the bathroom when it was ready and sat in the warm water reading a book. Don't lie I know some of you do that too! I put down my book after a while and lowered myself down into the water and sat still for a while. I came back up and wiped the water off my face with my hand and shook my hair sending water everywhere. I went Willow Smith! I slowly got out the water letting the water run down my body then wrapped my waist in a towel and walked out with my hair dripping and water running down on me. Royalty was there by the time I got out and she looked a little scared.
