SHOT !¡ MASON THAMES

15. ❝ flour fight ❞ ✰

LIV STARTED HER instagram livestream, jumping into the frame on the right while mason was on the left. "hi everyone! welcome to cooking with mason and liv!" she beamed as they walked up to the phone. "today, we're going to be making cupcakes because we're bored and have nothing else to do," she rested her head on her hands.

user28: this aint finna be good
user00: oh god

"okay, so, um... i'm not the best baker... what about you, mason?" she looked up at him. "well..." he shrugged, not answering her question. "this is gonna be so fun! we should've called in maddy to help us, she's good at this," liv sighed as she walked back and began to set everything up.

"okay, the oven is already preheated so we need to put sugar and butter in the bowl and use this spoon to mix it," liv nodded, reading the directions off of mason's phone as he stood behind her. "how much do we need?" he asked. "i don't know... let's just use it until we think it's enough," she bit her lip, picking up sugar and butter.

she put it in the bowl and mason handed her the wooden spoon so she could mix it together. "thank you, sir," she smiled. "you're welcome, ma'am. you have to whisk it until it's soft and fluffy, it says," he explains, reading the article. she nodded, doing what he told her.

user810: their friendship is so cute

tristanpravong: i'm coming downstairs to take pics of you guys

olivia turned around for a second to read comments, chuckling when she read tristan's. "tristan said he's coming down here to take pictures of us," she playfully rolled her eyes, continuing to mix the sugar and butter together. "of course he is, he's our personal picture taker," mason leaned against the counter, smirking with his arms crossed.

a couple minutes later, liv began adding the flour, eggs, milk and salt to the sugar and butter mix just as tristan trotted down the stairs and entered the kitchen. "hi, malivia," he smiled at them. liv turned around with a nasty look on her face. "did you seriously just call us 'malivia'?" she scoffed, putting strand pieces of her hair behind her ear.

"yes, i did," tristan nodded, winking at mason who was trying not to smile. "mason, help me, this is hurting my arms," liv groaned. he got behind her and put his hands on top of hers, helping her mix the ingredients together. she felt her face getting hot as she shifted her weight from foot to foot. they both laughed as tristan kept taking pictures of them.

user562: #malivia4life but friendship because shipping real ppl is toxic
user27: TRISTAN I LOVE UUUUUUUU 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭💔💔

"i'm honestly just here to take pictures and read the comments. user27, i love you too!" tristan held a thumbs up, smiling. "we need an ice-cream scoop, do we have one?" mason asked. liv nodded, squatting down and opening the dishwasher to pull out a freshly-washed ice-cream scoop.

mason handed her the muffin tin and she began to scoop the mix into the holes until all of them were full. "how long do we have to keep them in the oven for?" she looked over at mason. "'fifteen minutes, then swap over the position of the tins and bake for a further 3-7 minutes until tray of cupcakes are a light, golden color," mason read off of his phone, now sitting on the counter next to liv.
