Sion was walking through the hallways after finishing his band practice after school. They were going to start the audition for the last member of their band tomorrow so they've been busy coming up with an assessment for tomorrow's audition.

"Something smells good in the air." He mumbles to himself when he could smell the sweet aroma that was diffusing throughout the hallways.
The smell must have come from the kitchen where the cooking and baking club was at.

He follows the smell of the aroma. The lad walking over to the kitchen as he looks through the window by the door.

There was currently only one person inside the kitchen. Gaeul.
And she was currently making the frosting for the cupcakes that she had just taken out of the oven.

Sion stood there as he watches her. Somehow her doing something so simple has managed to captivate him. He must have not realised how long he's been standing there as the rest of the club students had started to come back.

"Sion, what are you doing here?" One girl asks as it snapped him out of his daze. Sion freezing up in his spot as he looks over at the three group of girls that had just arrived.

He didn't know what to answer as he just lets out a nervous laughter.

"I was just... I was um just.. walking.."
He struggles to say.
"Oh you must be here for Gaeul right?" Another girl says as he went rigid.

"Yeah he must be here for her. Otherwise, why else would he be standing in front of the kitchen when she's the only one inside!" They said.

HOW THE HELL DID THEY GET TO THAT CONCLUSION??

"Wait- I really was just walking by-" He tries to tell the girls but they didn't listen as they opened the kitchen door and pushed him inside.

"Gaeul, someone is here to see you!!" The club members chanted as it made Gaeul look up. The girl startled when she sees them pushing Sion over towards her work station.
What the hell was he doing here?

"We'll leave him with you then." They said and all went back to their working station.

Gaeul and Sion just stood there as they just stared at one another.

"Well, I wasn't expecting any visitors today." She says and flashes him a shy smile.
He could feel the sides of his cheeks heating up. The lad scratching the back of his neck as he walks closer towards her.

"I was just following the smell of the sweet aroma and saw you in here. Then those girls dragged me inside." He explains, he might as well be honest with her.

"Do you want to help me decorate these cupcakes? I'm experimenting with them, if they turn out good then I'll bake these for the school festival for our booth." Gaeul asks him as his eyes lit up when he hears this.
"Could I? I'm not the best at decorating though." He replies as she smiles at him sweetly.
"It doesn't matter. They're experimental cupcakes for a reason." She says and hands him a piping bag.

"Could I just decorate one? I'm scared if I'll mess up the rest of your cupcakes." He asks as she nods her head.
"Of course. But if you mess up on this one, you still have the rest to use."

The two of them spent the next few minutes decorating. Even though Sion was only doing one, he made sure that he decorated it precisely and to not mess up this one cupcake. He was supposed to be home by now or if he was unlucky, he would've been doing a mission. But god knows how he ended up being stuck with Gaeul and helping her decorate cupcakes for her club.

"I'm done!" He exclaims once he was done with his artwork. He holds it gently and showed it to her with so much pride.
"Tadahh!"

"It looks so pretty. Is it supposed to be an Angel? You drew wings." Gaeul compliments him as he smiles bashfully.
"Um I guess you could say that. Are you done with yours?" He says as he looks over at her side, seeing that Gaeul had finished decorating the majority of the cupcakes.

"I still have three left to do. You don't have to wait for me to finish them all Sion." She tells him as he looks over at her then at the door.
He felt his phone vibrate in his pockets. That usually means that he had a new mission.

"Alright then, I should probably start heading out. I don't want to disturb you anymore than I already have." He says and then looks down at his cupcake.
"Thanks for letting me help you with the decorating."
Sion about to leave the cupcake along with the rest of Gaeul's one when she stops him.

"You could have this one. You did decorate it after all."
He blinks at her. "Really?"
All Gaeul did was hum in reply as she nods her head a yes. "Tell me whether they taste good or not once you eat it."

"Okayy. Thanks again Gaeul... I'll see you some other time?" He thanks her as she smiles at him.

He then exited the kitchen with a cupcake in his hands. Sion stares at it before taking a bite.
Him savouring the taste as he covers his mouth in aghast.

"These are the best cupcakes I've ever eaten in my life." He chanted as he enjoys it.
Gaeul probably made the cupcakes with so much love that it tasted so delicious. His heart couldn't help but to feel so warm and at ease for once. She must've put in some sort of magical potion in this cupcake to make it taste this good.

The potion being her love.
