Update 3.2.2022: I am rebooting this fic with a more robust storyline while sticking to every main plot point of the original. This fic was written mostly when I was around 12-13 so I wanted to update it with my more advanced writing! Love you all.

(S/H/S) - Secret Hiding Spot (in Planet Express) (Y/F/F) - Your Favorite Food
***
When Bender arrived to Planet Express, he realized that you had already been there for a long time. You were working in the kitchen, preparing something for him. When Bender tried to come in and see what you were doing, you told him not to come in, that it was a surprise.
So Bender left you alone.
It gave you time to think. About all the events. They all swirled in your mind like a thick porridge, and only if you had a spoon could you wrench out the memories. Yet each memory was unique and had a different flavor-
What were you doing? Since when did you get metaphorical? Yeesh. You continued to mix the icing that was in your bowl. Which was actually pretty simple, now that you had a metal arm. You just stuck your arm into the icing and whisked it. Obviously, you washed your hands and everything. Yes, you were making a cake. Yes, it had taken you a while. Yes, you weren't completely done yet. HELL YEAH, IT'S GONNA BE GOOD.
Once you were done mixing the icing, you grabbed a cupcake tray and poured a bit in each. Then you added a different color of food coloring in each spot until each 'icing cupcake' was a different color. Wrenching the un-icing-ed cake out of the fridge, you placed it on the table in front of you. Rolling up your sleeves, you got to work.
The layout of the cake was simple. It was a large circle, and there were spaces allotted for each Planet Express member. As in, each slice was the member's favorite food. You traced out the areas with the black icing. You were going to decorate each one. It would not only look pretty, but it would help you remember which piece was for which person.
Fry: Anchovies. Bender: World-Class expensive beer. Leela: Whipped cream. Farnsworth: Brownies. Amy: Nutella. Hermes: Beef jerky. Zoidberg: As many fish and seafood as you could get. Nibbler: ICING!!
You kept decorating. It was a lot more accurate than before, thanks to your robot arm. You had put the icing in your arm. Then the tip of the finger would bend off and the icing would come out of the hole.
Finally, you were done.
It had taken you hours, and taken a lot of "DON'T COME IN THE KITCHEN!" yells for the cake to get done. But, sure enough, it was done! You hid the cake in (S/H/S) and washed your hands. "Alrighty everybody! If you guys want the surprise, you have to sit at the table." You instructed. You felt so...motherly. The table had been set with plates, forks and knives.
"Ooh, so it's a food?" Zoidberg reasoned.
You caught Bender trying to peek inside the kitchen. "No peeking!" You scolded him. "I'm not!" Bender said casually, slipping inside the kitchen. You sighed. He wasn't going to find it anyway.
You marched inside the kitchen and grabbed Bender by the antenna. "Ow ow ow ow ow!" Bender said, moving his head sideways so it didn't hurt so much. (THIS IS THE TIME TO WATCH THE VIDEO ABOVE. Start at 0:36 and continue until 0:50.)

"When I tell you to get out of the kitchen, I mean it." You said, amusement lining your voice. "Ow just let go ow!" Bender yelped as you dragged him to the table. You then released his antenna. "Just be patient, jeez!" you said as you went back to the kitchen to grab the cake.
"That was painful," you heard Bender muttering from the other room.
"Alright, here it comes!" You grinned, holding the massive circle cake in your hands. When you walked out, everything happened in slow motion.
Their faces especially. They were a mixture of surprise, shock, and lust. It looked like ENVISION DREAM CAKE HERE.
When you put it down on the table was when things returned to normal speed. "Wow." Fry was the first to speak. Even Bender had dropped his cigar. You felt yourself blush a little. "So here's how it works. Each slice of the cake has your guys' favorite food in it!" You smiled, holding up the cake cutter. "Hey look, there is one for Nibbler!" Amy pointed out.
You grabbed their plates and shoveled the cake onto it. You took your piece and placed it into your mouth. A billion flavors bursted into your mouth. After all, it was (Y/F/F). You horked yours down and barely had time to register their reactions because you were so enveloped in finishing your delicious cake as quick as possible.
"That. Was. So. Good!" Leela sat back, wiping her mouth with her sleeve.
"I've never had anything so delicious!" Zoidberg licked his lips with his tentacle-thingies.
