Xiao's house

─────────────────────────────────────────

Xiao was in his room working on the project while you were in the kitchen secretly making some almond tofu for him.

You weren't the best at making almond tofu, Xiao also knew that but he didn't mind, he always ate it anyways.

You hadn't made almond tofu in a really long time so you kinda forgot how to make it. Since you basically didn't know what to do, you just winged it hoping for a satisfying result.

You may have burnt some on the almond tofu mixture, but it looked fine so you assumed it was okay.

After finally finishing, you cut the almond tofu into smaller pieces and fit it all on one plate for the both of you to share.

You brought the plate up to Xiao's room and opened the door. Xiao instantly sat up and looked at you with curiosity.

"What are you holding?"

"Almond tofu." You smiled "I made it for you." You walked over to him and put it down on the small wooden table in the middle of his room. You sat down on the carpeted floor next to him and shoved the plate towards him.

"Thank you." He murmured quietly but loud enough for you to hear. Xiao picked up one of the forks and took a bite of the almond tofu.

Xiao normally showed no expression on his face, but right now he looked like someone who just ate a lemon whole along with the skin.

As good as the almond tofu looked, it obviously didn't taste that well.

"Did uh, did you like it?"

"Um.... yes." The correct answer was no.

You knew he was lying so you couldn't help but laugh a little. "If it really does taste good why don't you have some more?" You moved the plate even closer to him.

"If you made it why don't you try some?" He suggested.

"Hm. No, I made it for so you should eat it am I wrong?"

"Yes, you are very wrong." He frowned. "A good cook should always taste their food."

"Who said I was a good cook?"

"Exactly."

"Wha- hey! I mean your not wrong, but it can't be that bad." And with that you picked up the other fork and ate some of your almond tofu. You sat there for a good two seconds before running to the bathroom to spit it out.

"See I told you, it tastes like actual shit." Xiao smirked.

"Only I am aloud to say that about my cooking, I just forgot how to make it alright." You crossed your arms.

"That doesn't change the fact that it tasted really bad."

"Shut up." You picked up a pillow and threw it at Xiao's face, unexpectedly, you actually hit him square in the face.

The room went silent as the pillow fell to the floor in slow motion, it uncovered Xiao's facial expression after getting hit.

He was smiling
