We're in a what

Chapter 5

Adrien's POV

School was slow and boring but it did eventually end. Me and Mari went to our lockers at the end of the day, got our stuff out and then went to her house. We went through the bakery which luckily only had her parents, Nadja Chamack and Monon in. We said hi. Marinette said she would look after Monon on Sunday then we went up to her room to put our stuff down

"So what now?" I asked

"Um. Under Alya's recommendation, I'll teach you the difference between what sugar and flour look like. I mean or we could play video games."

"Wait, sugar and flour look similar?"

"We are starting with flour and sugar then."

"You do realise that I don't know where the kitchen is at my house right?"

"Seriously? You haven't once thought to go looking for it? How? Why? What do I do with you?"

"You could start by teaching me how to cook then kiss me? Maybe?" I said smirking at her. I thought considering we're now dating it wouldn't hurt to show my Chat Noir side just a little

"Maybe you can have that kiss if you make something edible. How does that sound?"

"Umm... sure. That honestly wasn't how I expected you to answer that though."

"Well maybe it's something you should get use to. Especially with how often we're going to be hanging out."

"Should we start cooking so maybe I could get that kiss sooner."

"OK, we can start cooking, but what are you planning on making?" Marinette asked

"Wait, aren't you telling me what to cook?"

"No, had you planned on me telling you?"

"No...Maybe... Yes. Yes I had, but I also thought you would tell me to cook whatever I would least likely burn the house down with. That was my logic behind it."

"Then we're making cookies."

"OK then. It seems like most of the confidence you had in me is gone but cookies sound good and easy." I said as I started to walking down the stairs to the kitchen.

"I just realised you're gonna need a recipe aren't you." Marinette said to me once we got down to the kitchen.

"Yes, why do you say that like recipes aren't something you have?"

"Because I don't know if we have recipes. The last time I saw a recipe was school cooking. The only reason I took the recipe was because it wasn't something I usually cook. It was something like chocolate mousse and strawberry pie. Its one of the most complex and most tasty things I have ever made."

"Sounds good. So how are we going to fix the no recipe thing?"

"I could write down what I normally do so you can use that as a recipe?"

"That sounds like a good idea." I replied, so Marinette grabbed a piece of paper and pen and wrote down the cookie recipe that she uses and then we well, I started making cookies while Marinette stared at me. I think I'm scared for whoever eats the cookies stomach and the kitchens safety. I am starting to think that Im not going to end up getting that kiss for making actual edible cookies. Maybe because shes nice she will give me one for trying? Or maybe im just wishful thinking.

Mari's POV

After I wrote down the recipe for sugar cookies, Adrien started cooking and I am very glad we don't keep anything poisonous in the kitchen other than dishwashing liquid which luckily Adrien avoided. He was doing an ok job except he got the temperature for the oven way too high which worried me a lot and I think he was trying to double the recipe because he seemed to be putting in double of what I wrote for everything. His father is going to kill me. Nevermind. Watching Adrien cook was like magic, he seemed to get every step correct even though he had never cooked before. I did end up turning the oven down though after Adrien started to turn the cookies into balls to put into the oven. My mum came in.
