Rey x Finn: One Shots

Sugar High

The kitchen was an absolute mess, ingredients and tools were strewn about all over. The room smelled of sweets and burnt breads at the same time and anybody down the hall could smell it. Amidst the mess Finn and Rey giggled and stood on guard, both of them holding spoons that had been dipped and re-dipped in batter, using them as weapons. Rey lept forward and swung playfully, Finn blocking it with ease and the sound of the two wooden implements knocking thickly. The young man went in for a strike but Rey giggled and blocked it. This went on for some time until the little timer buzzed to tell them that their creation should be finished. Both of them dropped their 'weapons' and hurried over to check on it.

There it was, a cake, unevenly risen and probably gooey in the center but they had no clue what they were doing and took it out. They took no time in finding whatever sweets they could to cover it with, hiding the chocolate treat beneath layers of other treats. Icing was all over their hands, candies stuck to their fingers and sprinkles on their palms. Their excitement lead them to cutting up the cake into servings and putting them on plates, sneaking around the base and leaving them right outside doors. Leia, Luke, and Poe all got extra big pieces.

"WWWWHOOOOOOOOOO MAAAAAAAADE THIS MESSSS????!!!?!?!?!" Finn and Rey ducked down slightly as they heard the angry voice of whoever must have been on kitchen duty for the month. They looked at each other and giggled before hurrying to Rey's quarters to hide. When they got their they finally took a good look at each other.

Finn's shirt was completely covered in flour, his cheeks mismatched with powdered sugar and icing. Rey's hands were sticky with sugar as well, chocolate smeared on her cheeks and a little bit on her bottom lip from when she had snitched. Her own clothes weren't in much of a better state than Finn's. Both of them looked each other up and down and burst into laughter.

"You look awful!!!" she snickered and pointed at him.

"I could say the same about you!" he retorted and laughed until his sides were hurting. They were giggling and snickering for a while before they caught their breath and calmed down, both of them realizing that in order to cover up their tracks they would really need to clean themselves up. They decided on Rey getting cleaned up first, the young girl shyly grabbing her other usual change and hurrying into the bathroom to shower. Finn lay quietly on the middle of the floor, staring up at the ceiling and looking at the little stars Rey had painted there. She said they were the constellations that she would see back on Jakku and it made her feel at peace. They always had that effect on him too.

"Your turn!" she chimed and stepped out of the bathroom, hair wet and dripping down onto her clothes. Finn lifted his head up and then stood, smiling. He looked down at himself and decided it was really only his shirt that had gotten messed up. He had left his jacket in the room before they had gone to the kitchen and so it was in its normal state. Now though, he pulled his shirt off and tossed it to Rey who was holding her own dirty clothes. She blushed and caught it.

"I just need a new shirt." he giggled and hurried to the bathroom, Rey turning and following him with her eyes, scanning the scar across his back along with the toned muscles from his training with the First Order and now furthered here when he went to work out with Poe. She shook her head and blushed profusely, flustered by where her mind was going. Finn popped back around the corner and grinned. "Don't think I didn't notice you checking me out."

"I- Finn!" she furrowed her brow and found herself feeling hotter and hotter.

"I was joking. But it turns out you really were!" he teased and then disappeared back into the steam to get into the shower. Rey shook her head, somewhat angry that he had tricked her but she found herself smiling about it on her way to the laundry.
