The light in the kitchen was dim, creating a soft atmosphere. You, Dina, Jesse and Ellie were set by the counters, rolling dough out. With the dough in hand, you shaped it into pretzel form and carefully placed it on a large cookie sheet. "These better be good." you say loudly. Bringing your body back towards the bowl of dough.

Standing beside Ellie, she towered over you. Creating a small shade of comfort to overcome your body. With each haste movement she made, your arms would bump into each other. Creating a flush of rose to surface.

"Ellie, can you hand me the oil?" you asked, holding your hand out.

With a shuffle by your side, Ellie quickly unscrews the cap. "Ill pour it, tell me when." 

"Just a little bit." you replied as you began putting your arm down. As you did, you felt a hand hold from under yours and feeling of thick liquid being poured onto the palm of your cupped hand. Turning your head, you catch sight of Ellie pouring the oil. The liquid poured down slowly, trickling onto the flour covered counter top as you made eye contact with a Ellie.

A hand pulling the bottle away broke the stare you held, "Goddamn the both of you!" Jesse yelled annoyedly, pushing you away from the spot you stood. Grabbing a towel from near him, he began to wipe away at the oil and flour mixture.

"Its okay." Ellie shrugged as she wiped her hands on the apron that sat wrapped around her waist.

Jesse sighed dramatically, wiping away as if his life depended on it, "No! You can't just say things are okay and then they're okay!" 

"That's how it works. That's how you avoid problems" Ellie said while shrugging.

You sigh deeply as you hang your head in shame, the conversation between the two making your braincell count decrease by syllable. Raising your head, you look at Ellie. Your eyes big and eyebrows furrowed with concern. Beginning to open your mouth, you stop yourself, letting the two argue before you. 

Taking small steps towards Ellie, you place your hands on her shoulders, gripping them with tension. "That is not how that works." you said firmly, imitating the way you would belittle your dog.

"You just say "Hey it's alright" then you go on your day" She said looking down at you.

You raised your right eyebrow, looking at her with a disapproving face. "No." you said firmly while shaking your head.

She looks down at you, "The way you're looking at me makes it look like you want a kiss-"

"Ellie, no!"

"Hey, its alright." she says cheekily while looking up at Jesse. 

Your face turned bright red at the comment, pushing her away from you and turning towards the pretzels. The sound of both Jesse and Ellie laughing rung in your ears. Going towards the forgotten oil, you drizzle it onto the pan, making sure not to soak the homemade pretzels too much.

The sound of footsteps retreating brought you back to your senses as you absentmindedly continued on. Heavier ones coming up behind you. Arms wrapped around your waist, causing you to jump and turn around. Coming face to face with the auburn girl, her face still holds the cheeky smile from before.

She leans in towards you, her hot breath fanning against your face. "Kiss?" she asked, conjuring up her best puppy dog eyes.

You scoffed as you rolled your eyes, "Get bent." you sighed, turning back towards the oil. "You forgot to report to Maria after last night patrol." you informed, jutting your finger out to the side.

"Hey, its alright."
