It was a rare occurrence that Alex was cooking. You perched on one of the bar stools at his island, watching him with an amused smile. The kitchen was immaculate, each appliance gleaming as if it had never seen anything but coffee and reheated takeout. Because, that was the reality. Today, though, there was something simmering in a pot that had your curiosity piqued.
"Is this a special occasion?" you called out, leaning back casually, arms crossed.
He glanced over his shoulder, a smirk playing on his lips. "Nope...Maybe. Just thought I'd waste some time like a normal person." he said, stirring the sauce with exaggerated motions. "Though honestly, I still think it's a dumb idea."
You laughed, shaking your head. "You still think cooking is just a fancy way to waste time?"
He turned back to the pot, his shoulders relaxing as he stirred. "Exactly. Why spend an hour cooking just to spend another hour eating? I'd rather order in and only waste half of that time."
"Right. You know, Alex, then you're wasting someone else's time cooking for you." you pointed out.
He chuckled, a warm sound that echoed in the space, and turned to you, eyebrow raised, as he set the spoon down momentarily. "But they're getting paid for it, so it's not wasting time. Simple economics, babe."
You rolled your eyes but couldn't help but smile. "Only you would make that argument."
He leaned back against the counter, arms crossed over his chest. "And only you would let me win it."
"Or it just means you're being lazy." you countered, tilting your head playfully.
"Lazy? I like to call it efficiency. Lazy or efficient, you decide." He shot you a grin before returning to the pot, his brow furrowing in concentration. "Speaking of efficiency, how's the case with, uh, Henderson was it? How's that going? Any breakthroughs?"
You sighed, running a hand through your hair. "Not as much as I'd like. He's being uncooperative, as usual. I swear he enjoys dragging things out just to test my patience."
Alex nodded. "Sounds about right. You should hit him with a motion. It might scare him into cooperating."
"Yeah, maybe." you replied, leaning forward. "But I don't want to show all my cards too soon. Plus, I might need to save that for when he really pisses me off."
He laughed, the sound warm and rich. "Just don't let him get under your skin. You know how I feel about letting clients dictate the pace."
"Right, right." you said, smirking. "I remember that time you told a client they were being 'insufferable' during a meeting."
