You're The Music That's Been Playing In My Head: Book 3

Dearest Family: Part 1

The timer goes off and rings, signaling that the galette is done baking. I was helping Tom, Sabine, and Rolland bake galettes for King's Day. According to Sabine, this was the first original recipe that Rolland and Tom had made together ever. Using the peel Rolland pulled out the crisp golden brown cake that had a sweet honey scent. Once it cooled we all took a bite, soon savoring the delicious taste.

"It melts in the mouth!"

"Yet perfectly crispy."

"So good."

"Delicious! Congratulations this is the first recipe you two have made together and it's a King's Day galette!" Sabine congratulates the two while I sneak a small sample into my bag for Flaake to enjoy.

"(y/n) would you mind waking Marinette up so she can help with today's sales?" 

I nod and start to head upstairs to find Tikki begging Marinette for a taste of the galette. I couldn't blame her, the sweet scent had filled the entire building. The other kwamiis soon begging as well. 

"Ok, I'll go get some," Marinette yawns as she gets up.

"Oh good I don't have to wake you up. They need our help in the bakery today," I informed her as she got dressed.

We head downstairs and I help Sabine package the galettes and Mari sniffs the air.

"Can I please have a tiny piece of galette?"

Tom chuckles. "Marinette has always loved the taste of galette," He goes to get her a piece when Rolland stops him.

"That's not how it's done. If Marinette wanted a taste she should've been up earlier when we were experimenting. She'll have to wait for us to sell all the galettes before enjoying the last galette as a family. Until then it's off limits."

Instead, Tom offers a croissant which Mari takes. I'll eat quickly and come back down to help."

"Considering Tikki was begging for a taste I don't think she's gonna let up," Flaake whispers in my ear and I giggle. 

"I can't imagine the others will want to wait either," I whisper back when Mari comes back with an idea.

"I have an idea. What if (y/n) and I hand out small samples of the galette to the customers in the line? It'll help them stay patient."

They agreed and cut a cake into slices for us to hand out, Marinette and I snagged one for ourselves. It was so good. Mari also puts some in her purse for the other kwamiis before we start handing out the samples. The samples were a success and didn't last long. With the excuse of getting some drinks for everyone, we head upstairs to give the kwamiis their share.

"We brought some galette for everyone-" Mari starts to say before panicking as she looks in her purse.

Confused I peeked in her purse to see that Tikki had eaten every last bite. Yikes.

"Tikki ate them all up didn't she?" Sass asks and the kwamiis start murmuring.

"Me?! You're accusing me?!" Tikki asked angrily as she flew out, glaring at the others who huddled up.

"I'm sure it was an accident. The galette was tasty," Mari tries to calm the situation down.

"Marinette you know how much Tikki loves sweets but do you really understand her appetite for it?" Flaake challenges and the other kwamiis nod their heads in agreement.
