Yes, the title is an Adele pun. 

Also I'll eventually do an Edge of Dawn cover. Eventually. Maybe. 

I had sushi for lunch today :)

Gotta love good ol' Hanneman, assigning a good ol' partner project to the good ol' Blue Lions class. 

Great. Just great. 

Why is it so great? 

Because that gave your crush and secret admirer the opportunity to jump at a chance to get to be with you. Alone. 

And that is exactly what she did. 

Annette had dragged you into the dining hall kitchen. Why she wanted to take you there? No idea. 

You found out soon enough. 

"Sooooo... Y/N..." Annette had her hands clasped behind her back, gently rocking back and forth on her heels. She had an adorable charm about her that you would be dumb not to fall for. And fall for her you did. 

"I'm sure you're wondering why I brought you here," she continued and you nodded at her. You were indeed very curious. From what you've heard, she is a disaster in the kitchen. "I know I'm a disaster in the kitchen," she so read your mind. "So I was kinda hoping... You could help me bake something... For Mercie?" She was up pretty close to your face, her face was tinted red. Despite her adorable actions, you felt your heart drop. Of course she'd have a crush on Mercedes. They've known each other for what seems like forever. It makes sense that she would like the older blonde. 

What you didn't know is that when she said Mercies name, she was absolutely making it up. 

She really wanted to make something for you. It just seemed too... Forward, asking your help to bake something for yourself. She laughed at herself internally. Why couldn't she just ask you outright? She was always so awkward around you. That must mean she really likes you! ...Right?

Snapping out of her internal thoughts, she waited for you to answer. 

"O-of course I'll help," you said, blushing heavily and nodding slightly. The hands behind her back clasped in front of her chest! 

"Great! Thank you so much, Y/N! You're the absolute best!" She thought bringing you in for a hug would be too forward. That and then you'd feel her heart beating a million miles per minute and what if you don't like her back and everything is just awkward and weird and-

Snap out of it! Focus on baking, she thought to herself, visibly shaking her head. 

"So, Y/N, I want your input. What do you think Mercie would like? I mean sure, I could've just asked her myself, but I wanted to hear what you thought!" Smooth cover, Dominic. Do you think she just blew her cover? 

"Oh! Well... I know, much like you, Mercedes likes cakes. I don't know her taste exactly as I haven't hung out with her as much as you have. Does she like really sweet things or prefer pastries to have a bit of sour or spice to them?" You asked, trying to better clarify so you could get a plan of action. 

"Right! Well, she loves sweet sweet things, I know she really likes strawberry flavored things so maybe a strawberry cake with a vanilla filling?" Annette suggested, full of energy. You thought that was a great idea. "Wait, hold on, I want more of your input! What flavor do you think she'd like?"
