Marinette's pov :

I had almost finished Mar'i's present.
' "O o Mommy gives Papa that look sometimes. You're in big trouble uncle Timy." Mar'i said.
"You're not helping. " he mumbled.
"Is there anything else I should know?", Tim thought about it. "Actually... ", " Tim." I growled.
"Shorty. Can you do something for me?" He asked and Mar'i nodded. "I forget my phone in the room next door and..", "On it!" She said and scrambled of my lap. When she ran into his bedroom he walked up next to me, turned the chair so I'd face him and bent down on my level. "Look... tomorrow is Mar'i's birthday." ," That's why tomorrow work is only till 11 a.m.",
"Exactly. She really likes you.And you don't have to but I think it would make her really happy if you would pass by."
..."I'll be there. Any thing she likes? " '
And I was done. Happy with my result I inspected the unicorn I had just finished making out of yarn.
I only had the cupcakes left to make.
There was a knock on the window. "It's open." I said looking up from behind the counter.
"Good evening."I smiled and walked over to the pantry.
"Good evening? Marinette do you have any clue how late it is?","N.."," It's tomorrow." Red Robin said crossing his arms over his chest. I looked at the kitchen clock. 1:21 a.m. .
"So? First of all sleep is overrated. Two you're awake too and third I thought you had no patrol tonight. " I said handing him some ingredients. "One maybe, two that's my job and three I was called to help stop a bank robberi.
Now what are we backing?" He asked setting the ingredients down on the counter.
"Unicorn cupcakes. But you won't touch anything before you take off those gloves and wash your hands." I said as I tied up my hair and made him a coffee. "Yes ma'am. ... My house shoes are?" He asked looking into my shoe close.
"In my art room. I forgot to put them back.", he nodded and disappeared into the hallway. He came back into the room skipping happily. "You embroidered my symbol onto them.", "I did." I laughed. After he washed his hands he walked over to the cabinet to get a cup.
"So how are you and blondie doing?" He asked as he filled it with coffee.
"Why don't you ask Robin? I'm sure he'll tell you all about it. Or perhaps he already has?",
"He might have mentioned something about a kiss." He said looking away and took a sip.
"We didn't. It was close but we didn't. "," How come?" he asked leaning forward with interest.
"It's complicated." I said taking out the muffin tray. He looked at me confused.
"He kinda confessed that he likes me. ", "Oh. Wha- what did you do?", "I told him that I only want to be friends.",
"Not that I'm upset but.. why?". "That's the thing. I don't know. I just don't see it." I said laying my head on the counter. "I might." He smiled. "Oh really?","Yup." He smirked, grabbed my phone and unlocked it.
"What are y..?" He put a finger on my lips to shut me up. He turned my phone around and it showed a picture of me and Tim

I jumped to grab it but he pulled it away. "Give me that!" I screamed chasing him.
After a few rounds around the table I was on the kitchen side and his was on the living room side.
"Give me.... the phone. " I growled.
"I don't think so. Actually I remember seeing an even sexier one. You were in red two piece. Hold on think I can.. . What are you doing? " he asked when I grabbed his coffee and gloves.
"Do you know how hard it is to get coffee stains out of clothes? " I asked in a low sharp voice holding the gloves over the sink with one hand and the coffee above the gloves with the other.
He gasped dramatically, "You wouldn't dare.",
"Don't test me. Put the phone down on the table and back away slowly. There has to be no coffee shed today. .... Your move."
"Alright we'll make it fair. " he said coming up to the dishwasher slowly showing both of his hands. Than he layed my phone down but let his hand on it.
"Now you lower my stuff into the sink..... .Good. Now on the count of three we both let go and run over to take our belongings okay?". I slowly nodded. We simultaneously counted. One. Two. THREE!
We both let go and ran to our stuff as I reached my phone I heard a 'Klank'. It was the sound of the coffee mug falling over in the sink.
"No!" Red screamed. "Upsi." I mumbled taking my phone. "You did that on purpose!", "It was an accident. My hand slipped." I said looking away.
I heard a ripping sound and before I could turn around..."Uff. *Cough* What the *Cough, Cough*" I was encased in a cloud of flour. "Upsi. My hand slipped." He mocked.

Jason's pov :

I was tired. After I took a shower I was ready to go to bed. It was already 1:55 a.m. after all.
When I was about to lay down I heard a knock on the door. "I swear if this isn't important I'll..."when I ripped the door opened I saw Red Robin and Marinette behind him with her arms crossed. Tim was covered in egg and what I assumed was milk. He had white prints all over his body. Marinette was covered in flour and had clumps of butter in her hair.
"Good morning Mr. Todd. I am sorry to disturb you at such an early hour but could we borrow some ingredients?"
I stepped aside and let both of them in.

Tim's pov:

He handed us the things and told Marinette that she owes him an explanation when he can think straight again then pushed us out.
"I still can't believe you made me do this." I growled. "Well you lost."
' "Ahha!" We were on the ground she somehow managed to hold me down and had pulled my head up by my hair.
"Say it! " she screamed. "Never!", she twisted my arm harder. "Ahhh! Okay okay! Uncle!"
