Baking With Him (Steven)

You stood in the kitchen of your apartment, trying out a new recipe that you picked up from your friends. They sent over the steps and ingredients over text because it seemed fun to you. And now after a long, market run, you were taking out the ingredients from the bags. You were listening to Kiss Me More on your shuffle playlist, swaying your body to the music as you sink in the lyrics. You wondered when Steven would come back, as he too was running errands in the market. As almost right on cue, you heard the door opening, snapping you from your trance.

" Y/N, I'm home!" You heard Steven's voice call out. You were happy that he was home, hoping that maybe he could help you.

" I'm in the kitchen, hun!" You called back, resuming to work on your masterpiece. Steven entered with bags in his arms, setting them down on the kitchen island.

" Hey, can't you see I'm working here?" You asked playfully, showing off a grin on your face. He moved the bags off the island and turned back to you.

" Sorry, darling." He said, kissing your cheek. " Now what is it exactly you're doing?"

" I'm trying out this new recipe that I got from Y/F/N. It's supposed to be the best type of chocolate chip cookies in the world." You said, nudging him in the side softy.

" Better than mine?" Steven asked, faking a hurt expression.

" Well we will just have to wait and see, won't we?" You smiled.

You and Steven got to work quickly, and you told Steven what to do. Occasionally, he would hold your hand while you were pouring things in. This led to you sadly needing to tell him that you needed both of your hands right now and that we would get to it later.

After all the mixing and shaping of the dough, you were finally ready to pop them into the oven. You let Steven do that since he insisted because he thought you would accidentally burn yourself with the oven.

" So what shall we do next?" Steven asked as he shut the oven door.

" Wait, I guess." Your playlist shifted from Doja Cat to Emmenez Moi, one of Steven's favorites. His eyes lit up with excitement, and he immediately took you in his arms to dance to the music. You were caught by surprise by his sudden motion towards you that you almost gasped, but you didn't mind one bit. He spun you around the kitchen without words, and you went along with it.

After minutes of endless dancing, the song came to a close, but you still kept dancing with him. It was different with or without the music to guide you. You seemed safe in moments like these, with him there. You leaned in towards him, and so did he. Your lips touched softly, as you kissed him with ease. There was still a spark, just as there had been when you first kissed him. That seemed like a million years ago. His arms traveled to your waist and took hold of you.

Then before you could enjoy another moment, the alarm for the cookies went off. It startled you so much, that you practically jumped up to the roof. You looked back at Steven and smiled.

" The cookies are done." Steven chuckled.

" I don't want to move right now." You said, groaning in response.

" Why don't you sit on the couch, and I'll get them out of the oven." He said, moving to the oven and pulling down the door.

You moved to the couch and sat down. The aroma seemed to already take over the apartment. You took in a deep breath as Steven moved the cookies onto a plate. He aired them off and then moved to you. He sat opposite of you and set down the plate. You both took one and took a bite of them together.

Wow.

They tasted like heaven and melted in your mouth. These did live up to their reputation! You took another bite and looked over at Steven in awe.

" These are amazing!" You said.

" They are, aren't they?" He said as you both took another bite. " Cheers!"
