Chapter Five : False
JEN'S MILK-O-SHAKE MALT SHOP DINER
The next day, Aaron and I are sitting in a booth table across from each other with our mugs of caramel latte and plates of mini pancakes and butter syrup.
"These mini pancakes are good." Aaron said, eating a bite out of from his fork.
"Yeah, I know." I said to him.
"So, are we gonna talk about it? Our kiss?" Aaron asked.
"I'm okay with it." I said to him with a small smile. "Are you?"
"Yeah, I'm okay with it." Aaron said.
Aaron and I exchange small smiles at each other. The diner door opens and Aaron looks up at Jonny and Monica. I follow his gaze at them as well.
"Hey, guys." Aaron greeted them with a small wave.
"Hey, Aaron." Jonny greeted back at him.
My phone buzzes on the booth table. I picks up my phone and looks at it.
Craig
I answer my phone. "Hey, Craig. What's up?"
"Violet? I have something on the SandBag serial killer. And turns out. There is no such thing as a SandBag serial killer." Craig tells me on the phone.
I become bewildered. "That's impossible."
"Same thing Me and Maggie said when Meredith told us." Craig said.
"What about the dead body that we saw with the pitchfork wounds in Dr. Miss. Feather's coroner office?" I asked.
"That dead body was a trick to make you, me and Maggie think that their was a serial killer." Craig said on the phone. "I think that someone has been toying with us, Violet."
"And I assume that the SandBag serial killer's lair is also fake?" I asked him.
"Yeah, it is." Craig said.
"But who would be toying with three special agents with a fake serial killer?" I asked.
"Don't know, but as of now, there's nothing quite much." Craig said.
"Okay, I'll see you around, Craig." I said to him.
"You too." Craig said, and hangs up his phone.
"Is everything okay?" Aaron asked me.
"Yeah, everything's fine." I reassured him with a small smile. "I gotta go."
"Okay." Aaron said.
I slides out of the booth table and walks away. And Jonny gets up from the diner counter.
"You can't keep emotionally shutting me out, we'll be seeing each other around anyway." Jonny said.
"And even though, we see each other around, doesn't mean that we have to chitchat with each other." I said to him.
Jonny sighs to himself and looks at my healed bruised knuckles. "What happened to your knuckles?"
"Not any of your concern." I replied and walks away from him, walking out of the diner.
Jonny and Monica exchange worried looks at each other.

THE MIDNIGHT CRYSTAL CLUBHOUSE
That afternoon, Sonya, Ava, Jessy, Carmen and I are sitting at a round table.
"The Rocketeers can perform here." Carmen suggested.
"Yeah, that's a good suggestion." Ava said to her. "And speaking of The Rocketeers, would you like to become a Rocketeer, Carmen?"
Ava and Carmen exchange small smiles at each other.
"Oh, wow. I'll be delighted, Ava." Carmen said with a smile.
Monica slowly walks up to me. "Violet? Can we talk, please?"
Monica walks over to the bar counter and I slowly walks up to her.
"What is it?" I asked her.
Monica has an annoyed expression on her face. "How long are you gonna keep up with your little attitude? Jonny and I may be married correctly again, he still deeply cares about you, but every time Jonny and You see each other, you emotionally brush him off. I get it, you're hurt, Violet. But I know deep down within you, you still deeply care about Jonny, even though, you and him aren't together anymore. So, don't let your attitude and anger keep you from reconciling with Jonny."
"My little attitude keeps the emotional pain away, Monica." I said to her and walks away.
Monica folds her arms and gently leans backwards on the bar counter.

OLSON HOME
In the living room, Aaron and I are sitting on the three seat sofa, sharing a bowl of popcorn while watching a romance comedy movie on TV.
"Thanks for the movie and popcorn." I thanked Aaron.
"You're welcome." Aaron said.
A gentle knock is on the door.
"I got it." I said, getting up, gently setting the bow on the coffee table and walks up to the door and opens it.
Jonny is there with a Jen's takeout bag. "I got you your favorite usual strawberry banana smoothie and a vanilla milkshake. And two French fries."
Jonny walks inside and looks at Aaron. Aaron looks at him. I gently closes the door.
"Aaron? What are you doing here?" Jonny asked him.
"Me and Vinny are watching a movie together." Aaron replied.
"I didn't know you guys were spending time together." Jonny said, slightly jealous.
"Yeah, we are." I said, causing Jonny to look at Me. "But so, it's not any of your beeswax. But thanks for my usual snack food."
"You're welcome." Jonny said, gently setting down the Jen's takeout bag on the coffee table.
Jonny and I exchange looks at each other and he walks away. He opens the door and closes it behind him.
Aaron and I exchange looks at each other.

[Song: I Love You Like A Love Song - Selena Gomez and The Scene]
Aaron and I had finished the romance comedy movie, finished eating the bowl of popcorn, and half eaten French fries and drank my strawberry banana smoothie and my vanilla milkshake.
"Gosh, I'm a little bit full." Aaron said.
"Yeah, I guess snacking does that a little." I said.
Aaron and I exchange chuckles with each other.
"Aaron?" I said.
"I know you're not gonna rebound with me to get over Jonny." Aaron said.
"Thanks for clarifying that for me." I said. "But I was gonna say "thank you" for the movie and popcorn."
"You're welcome." Aaron said.
Aaron and I exchange soft looks at each other and we kiss.
Now, slowly walking into my room, Aaron and I continues to kiss each other, undressing ourselves.
Gently laying on my bed, Aaron is laying on my bed, shirtless, wearing his jeans and barefoot. And I'm half naked, wearing my purple Natori feathers bra and undies, we embrace in a passionate kiss, becoming intimate make love with each other.
[Song ends]
*~*~*
Afterwards, Aaron and I are laying in my bed, half naked, asleep, with the lavender fluffy bedcover covering us both. He's laying beside me, gently cuddling me from behind.
My phone buzzes on my nightstand, causing me to tiredly wake up and sits up straight with the bedcover covering my torso and lower half of my body. I picks up my phone and looks at it.
Jonny Zuko
I answer my phone. "Hey, J. Zuko. You do know it's 10:30 PM, right?"
"Yeah, I know, but I can't sleep not knowing that you and I aren't on good terms. So, I'm coming over tomorrow morning to settle things in between us, to get over this rough patch." Jonny told me.
"I'm over it, Jonny." I said, hanging up my phone, gently setting it back down on my nightstand and lays back down, facing Aaron.
