Ashton:

"Wow, you're actually a pretty good cook," you smile at your boyfriend Ashton who you are stood with making mince pies in the kitchen. "Surprised?" he questions, smiling at you. "Kind of, yes," you admit, "I expected the kitchen to be a disaster zone, but instead I think you're better than me!" "Now I wouldn't go that far princess," he smiles, leaning into you and resting his head on top of yours because he was the perfect height to do so. "Well thanks Ash, but I can't make pastry," you laugh, "Yet here you are, showing off your baking skills!" "Let me teach you!" he says excitedly, and you can't decline purely because of how happy he looks to want to teach you a new skill. "See, look at that, your's looks way better than mine," he says after you make your first batch of pastry dough. "You're just saying that," you laugh, "Mine isn't good at all." "Y/N, babe, trust me... it's perfect," he smiles, "Just like you," he adds as he leans in towards you, placing a soft kiss on your lips, "Wow Fletcher, smooth," you giggle, before you kiss him back more.

Calum:

"Y/N! My Mum is coming round in a few hours! We need to make something Christmasy!" your boyfriend Calum yells as he runs around your house. "Calum, you need to calm down," you tell him, making him relax by placing your hands on his shoulders and looking him softly in the eyes. "What do you want to make?" you calmly ask him. "I don't know, but I don't see why she couldn't have warned us that she was coming so that we could have planned what to-" he says but you cut him off. "Calum, calm down. Now, I bought some mincemeat the other day, how about we make some mince pies. She likes mince pies, right?" you ask. "Yes, she does," he sighs before pulling you in for a big hug, "Thank you so much babe, I love you." "I love you too. Now you go and tidy up a bit and I'll go and make those mince pies, considering you'll probably mess it all up," you smile and he laughs. "See, this is why I love you," he beams before placing a soft kiss on your forehead and then the two of you part ways, you to make a start on the mince pies whilst he cleans the house ready for his Mum to come round.

Luke:

As you had learnt from many past experiences, being in the kitchen with your boyfriend Luke never ended well. Neither of you knew what you were doing and it was very rare that you finished with an edible product, so when he suggested that the two of you should attempt to make mince pies you knew that it could only end up badly. "Come on Y/N, it will be fun," he smiles as he weights out the ingredients. "Okay Lukey, whatever you say," you laugh. "Can you get me the flour please?" he asks as you are the closest to the cupboard. You nod and open the cupboard door, and to your horror it falls out and flour goes all over you. Luke can't help but laugh, and you shoot him a death glare. "I didn't do it on purpose, I swear!" he yells but still continues to laugh, "I just must have put it back awkwardly last time I used it!" "You think?!" you yell, gesturing towards your body that is covered in flour. "I will get you back for this Hemmings, you will pay for what you've done!" "But babe, I've said it was an accident," he says. "Don't you 'Babe it was an accident' me!" you yell as you chase him around the kitchen with the remainder of the flour.

Michael:

"Can you even cook?" you ask your boyfriend Michael as he sets out all of the ingredients in your kitchen. "Well, we'll just have to wait and find out, won't we dear Y/N?" he laughs and you can't help but join in. "Mikey, you do realise that this is going to be a disaster, right?" "Oh, of course I do. But we're all about the fun and possibly setting the house alight here, aren't we?" he jokes. "Too far Clifford, if you set this house alight I swear to God I am disowning you," you glare. "Calm down, relax, let loose Y/N, it is Christmas after all!" he smiles. The two of you start weighing out ingredients before you look at him and ask "Michael, have you even made these before?" "No, not at all. I just thought that it would be fun." "So, where is your recipe with the method and exact measurements for ingredients?" you question, realising that this will go even worse than you had already anticipated. "I watched Mary Berry make them yesterday morning," he says, "Look Y/N, it will be all be fine." "So you remember the measurements?" you ask. He thinks for a minute before responding, "Kind of... maybe..." he shrugs, and you can't help but laugh.
