Cheryl was nervous when she got to the front door, after the scene earlier she had been worried about how the two would be in the evening. She was rather glad the kids weren't there just incase anything broke out again. She didn't want them to see Toni and Cheryl like that.

She pushed the door open and entered into the dark house.

"Toni?" she called out questioningly. Cheryl placed her coat on the hanger and continued into the house finding the whole place dimly lit. She kept looking around, finally walking to the dinning room where Toni was just placing two plates of food down on the set table which was covered in candles and a vase of roses. The room kept a warm low light, cozy and comforting.

"oh hey" Toni looked up, she seemed as nervous as Cheryl was.

"this is...unexpected...but very nice" Cheryl smiled a little, heading over towards Toni and leaning in but hesitating.

"are we ok?" the red head asked quietly, her eyes flickering as she tried to keep Tonis gaze.

"are we ok?" Toni asked back and Cheryl nodded a little before finally fully lensing in and pressing her lips to the shorter girls. They stayed in their embrace until Toni pulled back for air.

"I made dinner, some fancy pasta thingy I found in the cook book, I have to admit I just kinda randomly picked a page and hoped for the best"

Toni scratched the back of her head looking down at the meals.

"it looks delicious babe" Cheryl took a seat, followed by Toni. Cheryl was the first to take a mouthful of the meal. It was really good for Toni's cooking. She was never a great cook. But there was something oddly sweet about the meal. "babe what did you add into this?" Cheryl asked curiously.

"pasta... Tomato pasta sauce... Pesto... A little chilli.. Bacon... Teaspoon of salt.. Regular stuff?" Toni answered, Cheryl had an idea what had happened here.

"babe you definetly used the salt right?" Cheryl asked curiously.

"yeah it's that little blue pot right?" Toni asked taking a mouthful of her own food as Cheryl face palmed.

"babe that's the sugar, you put a teaspoon of sugar into the food not salt"

'I'm in love with an idiot' Cheryl thought to herself. She tried to stifle her laugh but it started to break through.

"don't laugh at me!" Toni huffed taking another bite of her food, knowing she was right.

"I'm sorry baby, I'm not laughing at you" Cheryl tried to hold it back and stuff her mouth but she could no longe rlook at Toni without wanting to burst into laughter.

"we best not eat the cakes I made then" she mumbled taking a few more bites of her pasta.

"how come?" Cheryl asked, continuing to have her meal even though it had an odd taste to it.

"cause I used the other pot for that, meaning the cakes are full of salt" she groaned.

"this is why you need me around and I'm the one who cooks"

They laughed and talked over their food, still enjoying the gesture Toni had done.

They ended up back in the living room, Cheryl laying against Toni with a glass of wine in her hand.

"babe can you grab your acoustic?" Cheryl suddenly asked, looked up and kissing Toni's chin lightly.

"uh sure why not" she got up from the couch and placed her own drink down before going to their room to pick up the acoustic guitar (well Toni's favourite acoustic) and returned to Cheryl.

"want me to play you a tune?" she asked curiously as she sat back beside Cheryl but Cheryl took the guitar off her.

"mm no hold there my little rocker" she teased.

"you're gonna play?" Toni asked as she shuffled back to give Cheryl some space. Cheryl sipped her wine then put it to the side and held the acoustic properly and strummed the strings lightly.

"mhmm now sit back and relax" Cheryl plucked some strings like Toni had taught her. Toni used to teach Cheryl the chords and songs when they had more spare time.

"I'm gonna marry a rockstar

I'm gonna move downtown

Lofted bed above her practice space, guitars hanging all around

She'll wake up while I'm whispering 'Babe, it's almost noon'

But we could kiss all day in this tiny room

We like walking wearing black matching Converse shoes

Instead of diamond rings we get new tattoos

Instead of walking down the aisle it's a backyard gig

Just an ice cream cake and the people we dig

Oh yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah

Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah"

Toni nodded her head to the beat, a large grin across her lips as she tapped her feet to the tune I made

"I'm gonna marry a rockstar

Go to every last show

Nod my head to the bass drum from the very front row

I help my baby move her gear to the stage from the van

I take pictures on her phone for her Instagram

She's gonna make it big, she's gonna sell so many tracks

And through the ups and downs I'll be the lover that lasts

Oh yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah

Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah

I don't mind picking up the bill

It won't be long until a studio in the hills

A souped-up mixing board, sometimes she'll let me record

The little poems I write, then we go out at night to the Satellite

She plays her guitar for so many bands

She's got those talented, rough, rock 'n' roll type hands

And I feel 'em on my back, on my neck, on my face

Every chord progression makes my heart just race

When she sees me in the crowd points and blows me a kiss

Don't really know how life can get much better than this

Oh yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah

Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah

Toni chuckled and restrained herself from moving her hands onto Cheryl as she sang

"I'm gonna marry a rockstar, and when she's touring 'round the world

I'll send her unreleased Walking Dead episodes, so on the plane she's not bored

She sends a picture of the buildings in each new city

She texts me every afternoon just to say "you're pretty"

And before I go to bed "miss you, baby, goodnight.

Kissy heart emoji

'Do you need sexy Facetime?'

Never worry 'bout a local groupie trying to take a ride

My lover only likes ladies twitter verified, like me

Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah

Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah

I'm gonna marry a rockstar

We got a love you can't doubt

Wrinkle right up next to each other

We'll get old but stay loud

Oh yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah

Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah"

On the last strum Toni clapped and cheered as I placed the guitar down.

"babe that was fucking amazing, you wrote that?" Toni asked and Cheryl nodded a little.

Toni moved in close and pressed her lips to Cheryl's then pulled away again, looking into her eyes.

"you want these rock and roll hands all over you?" she asked with a slight smirk and Cheryl laughed a little until it suddenly hit Toni was being serious.

"if you're sure?" Cheryl asked and Toni nodded. Toni stood up first and took Cheryl's hand leading her to the bedroom.

It had started off slow and sweet but soon quickened into a rough passionate session, showing their love for each other in a way they knew well. Going on all night long until it reached the next early morning when they gave in laying weak on the bed, Cheryl laying her head on Tonis chest.

--

Toni was the first to wake up, she knew she had to get ready for the meeting with Veronica and the band. Toni slowly maneuvered from under Cheryl and grabbed a shirt from the side, slipping it on to cover her bare top. She grabbed her phone and saw there was an unopened message.

She clicked it and opened it up, rubbing her eyes gently.

It was a photo from Veronica.

In the photo veronica was there on the couch with Danielle asleep on her shoulder and the twins with their heads on her lap asleep too. Under the photo was the caption 'sleepy babies, we missed you last night x'

Toni chuckled quietly to herself and screenshot the picture in awe of the scene.

Toni was quick to repsond

'awe so cute I adore it, I missed you all too but will see you soon xx'

"baby" Cheryl mumbled moving up and pressed kisses up Tonis back, moving up to the back of her neck and her arms slithered around her waist and grabbed her phone.

"oi hands off" Toni turned quickly and grabbed it back chuckling.

Cheryl huffed and pulled Toni down on top of her "do you have to go to that meeting?" she asked.

"yeah Veronica already changed the date for me once, can't do it again" Toni moved off Cheryl and got off the bed to find some underwear.

Cheryl went onto her phone as Toni slipped on some pants and found a bra she was pretty sure was her own.

"have you seen this?" Cheryl asked and Toni looked over. She was on Instagram and on Veronica's account where she had posted the same pic she had sent Toni. Only this time the caption was slightly altered 'loved looking after these sleeping babies, missing their mum 💕'

" yeah Ronnie sent it to me before" Toni shrugged and started to changed into something clean.

"you should see the comments, they're loving you two" Cheryl mentioned and Toni walked back over to Cheryl and took her phone off of her

"stop looking for pain when you don't need to" Toni looked over the photo, smiling once more before clicking off the photo and passing it back to Cheryl. Toni logged on herself to comment

'missing all of you ❤️'

I took a quick nosey at the comments. Cheryl was right, fans were going crazy trying to work out what it all meant and who she was talking about.

Toni put her phone away and slipped her shoes on.

"babe get dressed we gotta get moving, you need to take the kids whilst I'm in the meeting"

Reluctantly Cheryl got out of bed and they both finished getting ready.

Toni took them to the studio where people were waiting outside. Both the girls got out, Toni wrapping her arm around Cheryl's waist and leading her to the door. Toni and Cheryl both stopped to do a couple autographs and photos with some fans but eventually pushed through to the door and got inside. They went around till they found Veronica and the kids.

"mummy!" Thomas ran striaght to Cheryl. Veronica turned at the call and looked at the pair, a small smile pulling at her lips. She was holding Amelia in her arms as she walked over and hugged Toni gently.

"hey beautiful you alright?" Veronica asked.

"yeha thanks I'm much better now" Toni nodded and looked to Amelia

"hey you" toni grinned and helped Veronica put her down so she could run to Cheryl. Daniel went striaght to Toni, wrapping his arms around her legs.

"mum you're back!" he squeezed her legs tightly.

"I was only gone an evening" she laughed and scuffed his hair "was it fun at Auntie V's?" Toni asked.

"yeah I loved it, Aunt V let us eat pizza and ice cream and stay up late and have a nerd gun war which we all lost because Aunt V is too good at it and was able to hold out against all three of us but we missed you and Aunt V missed you and we watched a live performance of you" it practically all came out in one breath.

"picking on the kids are we?" Toni teased Veronica and she rolled her eyes playfully.

"not my fault I'm better at nerd gun fights" she shrugged.

"just wait till I play again, then you'll get your ass whooped" Toni smirked a little.

"whatever shorty, we gotta head in"

"alright, Daniel stay with your mum I won't be long" he ran over to Cheryl and I entered with Veronica, all the band were at a table. They both took a seat with them

"hey idiots" Toni smiled a little.

"right you lot, you're back on tour very soon again, we gotta make this last bit count alright? This has to last you lot for awhile until the next album came out. You guys are more popular than you've ever been before, we can't lose that now, I want you guys to be able to continue what you're doing" Veronica looked at me then Kylie.

"that interview went to shit, has caused a big stir, the wrong kind of attention. Thankfully because enough people love you two you're alright but we can't have another slip up like that"

"it's not my fault he asked personal questions that were inappropriate and just wrong" Toni huffed.

"I agree. It was wrong. But you have to prepare for something like that" Veronica looked my way, a sad smile on her lips as she continued on "I don't know if what was said is true but I can guess since the photos give away a lot" Veronica dropped the photos onto the table.

Toni looked away from the photos immediately but Kylie did not.

"it will die down, it's old news that was brought back up. Look everyone finds Toni hot and wants to bang her, no one is gonna judge" jade smirked and shrugged "hey didn't you two used to bang" jade nodded to Veornica and laughed a little.

Veronica picked up the pictures and threw them at Jade "can you stop thinking with your pants for a moment and concentrate" Veronica huffed but had a small palyfull smile on her lips.

"she's not wrong" fangs shrugged.

"true true" sweetpea added.

"anyways if we have had enough of talking about who wants to get with Toni and who has we can move on" Veronica felt like she was looking after children half the time. Toni was just at the side with her feet up and a playful smirk on her lips as they bickered.

"right Toni and Kylie, try and not spend too much alone time in public right now. We don't want suspicions"

"Fangs, Sweetpea, you two both have a interview tomorrow, play it cool" Veronica informed.

"Girls you have a photoshoot tomorrow, Toni I think it's the same place Cheryl's doing her photoshoot with Kendall"

"that's good, are you in the shoot?" she asked curiously.

"uh no I don't think so" Veronica shook her head.

"hmm not good enough, I will make sure you get in some and try and bring my camera. Its been awhile"

"apart from that we just need to keep up the hype on media until the tour is back on, which I'm coming along this time"

Whoops came from all the band mates.

"if there's nothing else then we can get on with the spesific tour details?" Veronica suggested. "brilliant then let's begin.."
