Tacos

A/N

I ain't a taco expert so let's see how this turns out.

You and Leo were sitting at a table with ingredients laid out in front of you. You were both in the same group for Home Economics and today, you were making tacos. 

"I am so excited to eat these," Leo said.

You snorted and said, "Let's see if we burn them or not." In your group, there were four members. It was you, Leo, Maya, and Ryan. "Okay, so Ryan and I will set the table and you and Leo will make the tacos," Maya said. See, Maya knew you liked Leo, and you regret telling her. But you went along with it. You all agreed and got to work.

"Okay, so we open the package of taco shells, right," Leo asked. You nodded and went to go get the meat. You grabbed the meat and put it on the counter. "Now, we get the vegetables.." Leo put out four taco shells and went to get a knife and vegetables. You started fixing up the meat, mixing it with spices and such. As Leo cut up the vegetables, you looked and saw that Maya and Ryan were done. "Guys! Help us cut up and cook the ingredients!" They both ran over and grabbed knives. The other groups weren't working so well together, so you guys were considered the best group, so far. 

"Okay, vegetables are cut up and ready to be eaten," Leo said. "Did you wash them first, just to make sure they're okay to eat," Maya asked. Leo almost cut off a part of Ryan's hair when he realized he messed up. "Whatever. If we die from tacos, that's the best way to die," Leo said. 

"Guys, the meat is done. Now we cook it right," you asked. Maya grabbed the meat and put it on a pan. She put it on medium heat and started cooking. "Hey, y/n, you weren't supposed to add the spices.." Your eyes widened and you yelled an apology. Maya then added salsa to the beef and kept cooking it on the pan. 

After the beef was done, Maya grabbed the heated taco shells and put the meat in. Leo put in the vegetables, while you and Ryan made the plates look presentable. 

"Alright, guys! We made tacos," Leo exclaimed. He high-fived Maya and then Ryan. When he attempted to high-five you, you both went in separate directions. You blushed and high-fived again, this time actually hitting his hand. You heard Maya try to hide a yelp.

After the teacher evaluated your tacos and gave your group an A+, Maya and Ryan left to go with their other friends in different groups. So, you and Leo were left to clean up. Leo ate a taco and grinned. "Dang, these are good. Y/n try one!" You nodded and bit one. They were amazing. Your eyes widened and Leo said, "I know right?" You both ate Maya and Ryan's tacos. 

You took the pan and went to the sink. You turned on the water and started washing it. Leo grabbed the plates and wiped down the counter. After he was done, he went to the sink beside you and started washing the plates. As, you were soaping the pan, you felt water being splashed onto your face. You looked at Leo and saw that he was grinning like a madman.

"Really?" He looked at you and gave you an innocent grin. "What? Just washing plates."

You smirked and filled your pan with water. When he was busy drying plates, you threw the water from the pan onto his face. He yelped and looked at you. "Really?" You laughed and walked towards the counter, to set the pan down. You slipped on the water and grabbed onto Leo's shirt for support. You just dragged him onto the floor, as well. You grunted and opened your eyes. You saw a pair of brown eyes staring at you and you yelped. Leo is literally on top of me, you thought. You both just stared at each other for a few seconds before Leo got up and helped you get to your feet.

After the teacher yelled at you guys for making a mess, you both wiped the floor and counter until it was dry. After elective was over, you both grabbed your backpacks and walked outside. 

"Well, see you later, Leo," you said. "Yeah, bye, y/n," Leo replied. You turned to walk away but you were turned around by Leo. He quickly pecked you on your cheek, smiled, and walked away. 

You screamed after him, "What was that?!" He looked back at you, grinned, and waved. "See you tomorrow!" 

During dinner that night, you ate tacos with your family, remembering what happened after elective.
