Yaku's POV:

"Yaku, let's make Christmas cookies!" Lev says excitedly. I look over at him and he's looking at me with the biggest puppy dog eyes he can make. I sigh, "Okay, Lev but you have to be careful because you're a menace in the kitchen." I say, unable to resist his puppy dog eyes.

"Yay!! I promise!" He says happily and runs towards the kitchen. 'Oh god, what did I get myself into?' I think to myself and follow him into our kitchen.

Lev finds a recipe on Pinterest that he wants to use, and I start gathering the ingredients that he reads out to me. "We'll make the icing later. Let's do the cookies first." I say when he starts reading out the ingredients for the icing excitedly.

"Okay Yaku!" He says and start bouncing on his heels as he washes his hands. I smile and shake my head as I wash my hands too. We set to work making the dough. I preheat the oven as he gets a big bowl out for us to mix the dough in.

"Is this one okay?" He asks me and I turn around to see him holding our biggest mixing bowl. "Yup, that's the one we need." I say and he sets it down on the counter and starts reading out the directions for me. We get all of the ingredients measured and in the bowl.

I look over at Lev, "Lev, how the hell did you get flour all over you? I measured the flour." I say and shake my head. He looks down at his apron, "Oh, I guess I did!" He says and smiles at me. I sigh as I give him the bowl.

"Please mix it slowly so you don't make an even bigger mess of yourself." I say and he takes the bowl excitedly. "Okay Yaku!" He exclaims and starts stirring gently. I go to get the cookie cutters after I watch him for a minute. "What shapes do you want Lev?" I call to him over my shoulder.

I hear him come up behind me, "Yaku, I wish you wouldn't climb on the counters to reach the top shelf. I could have gotten the cookie cutters." He says and places his hands on my hips. Currently, I am standing on our countertop, looking through the top shelf of our cabinet to find the Christmas cookie cutters. I turn around in his hands to look at him and I have to look down slightly which makes me smile.

"I'll be fine, I'm already here so which shapes do you want? I already found the tree and the star, but I know we have a candy cane and reindeer somewhere." I say and lay my arms around his neck. "Trees and stars are fine with me." He says and gets up on his toes to kiss me.

"Okay, sounds good to me." I say and suddenly Lev wraps his arms around me and lifts me off of the countertop. "Oi! What are you doing?" I say when he just holds me, not putting me down. He just snuggles his face into my chest in response. I pat his head gently 'Wow, I forgot how soft his hair was.' I think to myself and start running my fingers through his hair. He hums into my chest and I blush a little at how cute he is.

We stay like that for a few minutes as both get lost in each other. Unfortunately, the oven beeps telling us that it's up to temp and we get pulled back to reality. "Come on Lev, we need to finish the cookies." I say as I pet his hair.

"Hmm." He hums sadly but doesn't put me down. I kiss the top of his head, "Lev, come on. We can cuddle after the cookies are done." I say and he quickly looks at me, beaming. "Really?" He asks excitedly and I chuckle. "Yes Lev, really." I say and he finally puts me down. "Yay!" He says and bounces on his heels again.

I chuckle as I grab the cookie cutters off the counter to go back to our dough. I roll it out and Lev helps me cut out the cookies before we place them in the oven. Lev crouches down in front of the oven to watch the first batch of cookies bake.

He looks so excited as he watches them slowly puff up slightly with a smile plastered widely across his face. I chuckle as I wash up the bowl and other things we dirtied. The timer dings and he's so excited he tries to reach right in the oven to take them out.

"NO!" I yell and he stops in his tracks. He looks at me confused and I bump him out of the way with my hip as I reach in with my oven mitted hands. "Oh yeah. Sorry Yaku." He says sheepishly as I set the hot baking sheet on the stove top.

"Please don't burn yourself." I say as I start to take the cookies off to let them cool on the cooling racks. "Okay." He agrees excited as he watches me. I shake my head as I place the next batch on the pan to bake.

As they bake Lev reads out the ingredients for the icing and we start making it. The timer sounds and Lev excitedly gets them out of the oven, this time wearing the oven mitts, before setting them on the cooling rack.

I finish the icing and separate it into two bowls to color. I start mixing the yellow one and Lev mixes up the green. "Hey Yaku?" Lev asks and I look up at him. Only to have him boop my nose, leaving icing on it. "That was a dirty trick." I say and glare at him. He just smiles at me innocently. "What do you mean Yaku? I'm innocent." He says trying to play dumb.

"Uh huh, sure." I say and get some icing on my finger. I quickly smear it on his cheek before licking the leftover icing on my finger. He gasps dramatically at me, "That's so mean Yaku!" He says. "You did it first!" I say and bring the icing over to the cookies. We have one tray of stars and one tray of trees.

"Touché." He says and follows me to the cookies, setting his bowl down near the trees. I chuckle as I start decorating the stars. After a few minutes I look over at his trees that he's been decorating. "Lev, what the hell is that?" I ask as I stare at them.

"How do you mess this up?" I ask him as I come over to him. "I wanted them to be unique!" He says. "They certainly are! But you need to frost the whole cookie Lev!" I say and start helping him. "How about you make ornaments on them with the leftover yellow icing I have to make then unique? I'll put it in a piping bag for you." I offer and his face lights up.

"Yeah! Okay Yaku!" He says as we finish covering his cookies with the green icing. I put the leftover yellow icing in a Ziplock bag and cut off the tip off for him. He happily takes the bag from me and makes different shaped ornaments all over the trees, not just little round ones. He's got some round ones, but he also draws little squares and triangles and stars on the trees as ornaments.

I can't help but laugh as I watch him work. He gets done and looks proudly at his work. "Now they're unique!" He says happily. "They sure are, just like you goof." I say and pull him down to kiss him. While I have him distracted with our kiss, I reach my finger in the leftover green icing. As we break apart, I smear it on his nose.

He gasps and I laugh as I smirk at him. "Oh, now you're asking for it." He says and pipes some of the yellow icing on his hand. "No Lev! You're gonna make a mess!" I say and try to run away from him. Unfortunately, with his stupidly long arms he catches me before I can get away.

He reaches around as I struggle and wipes his handful of icing on my cheek. I stop struggling as he laughs. I grab the bowl of green icing and get some on my fingers, quickly turning around and smearing it across his face, getting a little in his hair.

He smiles at me and I laugh too. "Are you done now?" I ask him. "Almost." He says and wraps his arm around me. "Hold still." He says and brings the piping bag of icing up to my face. "Lev, what do you think you're doing?" I say and try to back away.

"No, just stay still! Please." He says and gives me his puppy dog eyes, 'Why did you have to look at me like that... I can never fight those eyes.' I think. "Fine" I say and stand still. He smiles at me and starts piping on my face.

He puts something on my each of my cheeks and on my forehead. "Done!" He says and admires his work. "Great." I say sarcastically and roll my eyes. I take the icing from him and throw it away before I start cleaning up the bowls and countertops.

"Hey Yaku?" Lev asks and I turn to ask him what he needs, and I see his phone pointed at me, and I hear a click. "You did not just take a picture of me!" I say and try to get his phone away from him. "But you look so cute! Look!" He says and turns the phone to where I can see the picture but can't reach it.

I now see that he drew hearts on my cheeks and forehead with the yellow icing and I blush. "You better not post that anywhere!" I say and huff at him. "Fine Yaku." He says and smiles at me.

After we get everything, and ourselves cleaned up we take a couple of our cookies to the living room with some hot tea and coco. We spend the rest of the night cuddling on the couch watching Christmas movies as we munch on our cookies.
