Cuddling and Leftovers - Both Great, Even Late
Sometimes, it's the little things that make life just awesome. Familiar comforts like trashy movies, a fresh mani-pedi, a fluffy pink bathrobe, and a couch to sprawl out on. Of course, the fact that she's expecting her sort-of-boyfriend to show up with baked goods soon doesn't hurt either.

He's got an EZ-Bake oven. This guy is too cute to be real sometimes.

Petra's a little surprised at him taking the initiative, but very pleased with it. She returns the kiss, stroking her fingertips down his chest gently.

"Well you're welcome then, cutie." She smiles happily.

"So, what kinda cupcakes you making? If you've got a good red velvet recipe you just earned yourself a backrub that'll pop the tension spots like bubble wrap."

	"This is chocolate, but the preference for red velvet is noted for the future," Dinadan says. Aaand yes, he's blushing again. Still. Whatever. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Mmm. Guess I'll still give you the backrub. But that better be some awesome chocolate cake." Petra smirks. "I suppose if you're going to start baking that means I have to let you go," she states. But she doesn't. Not yet anyway. He's very cuddly, and he smells like whatever he was already baking. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"This recipe has enormous chocolate chunks in it, resulting in pockets of gooey chocolate-y goodness within every cupcake," Dinadan reassures her, a little smugly. "It is awesome." What, he's worked hard on this recipe! "Well yeah," he says after she doesn't actually let him go. "Eventually. I wouldn't want to elbow you in the stomach or anything."

	Petra laughs at how specific he goes on about it. "Well then, I guess you'll definitely be getting that backrub. I'm gonna go change so I don't get anything on my robe." She saunters off, undoing her belt and letting the robe slip enough to show bare shoulders and some back, before disappearing into the bedroom. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Okay," Dinadan says, unfortunately missing the bare-shoulders-and-back revelation as he's turned back to the counter to start working on the cupcakes. She'll just have to make him blush some other way at some point during the evening. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

Oh she'll do her best/worst.

She returns a few minutes later, wearing... well, there's an apron visible. There could totally be clothes under there. Small clothes, but clothes nonetheless. Not that Din could tell from the angle she's approaching at, but still. If he assumes she's naked, it's obviously his fault.

"So, you need any help?" She speaks up, grinning, to get his attention.

	"Do you have a turkey baster? I forgot to grab mine, and..." Dinadan trails off, cocking his head and blinking as he attempts to figure out if she's wearing anything other than the apron. Then he realizes what he's trying to figure out and starts blushing. "...A-and it's, uh, easier to, um, clean up the pan after if there aren't, um, dribbles baked on."

	"Nope, 'fraid not. That's a little past my cooking complexity. Petra doesn't so much as bat an eye. She just smiles as always, particularly as she gets the head-tilt from him, as she approaches. "So... do you see something you like? I got this for you, but I couldn't resist trying it on myself." She points at the text 'science'. "See? SCIENCE." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Work, brain, work! Stop staring! "Well, uh, thanks. It looks really nice on you. I, uh, guess we can use a spoon. Or a measuring cup. Or something?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	gal_gardner 2010-06-26 12:31 am UTC (link)
	"Well thanks, hopefully it'll look good on you too." She reaches behind her neck to start undoing ties. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	sonoftheatom 2010-06-28 05:22 am UTC (link)
	Erk! "I'm, ah, mostly post-apron at this point," Dinadan said. "Just need to put the batter into the cupcake pan and bake it." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	gal_gardner 2010-06-28 12:41 pm UTC (link)
	Oh but they're already undone, and the apron comes tumbling down. Revealing a dark green tube top. She's got short-shorts on as well. "Well... aren't you productive?" Petra smiles. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

Dinadan's not sure if he's more embarrassed, relieved, or disappointed (what? He is a teenage boy). And he just knows that she's laughing at him on the inside.

"Well, I did a lot of the prep work back home," he says, trying to will his blush to fade. "And I didn't get any egg shell in it, so I didn't have to spend time fishing pieces out. Do you have a serving spoon or something?"

Yes, talk about the cupcakes! Yes!

	Petra hangs up the apron and digs through her 'miscellaneous' utensil drawer. She pulls out a large wooden spoon. "Will this do?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	sonoftheatom 2010-06-30 05:22 pm UTC (link)
	"A nylon or metal one would be better if you have one, but that'll do," Dinadan says, following her over to take a peek in the utensil drawer himself. It looked a bit of a mess, but reorganizing people's kitchens without permission is rude. (Reply to this)(Parent)
