Andrew PoV:

Tom was coming to my apartment later, we have made a great friendship during our time in the tent and so we decided to have a couple of drinks, except I wish we were more than friends... Tom thinks that Rav and selasi are here too but I only invited him, I thought we could do some baking together and have a glass of wine, maybe watch a movie.

I heard a knock at my door and panicked, checking myself in the mirror to make sure I didn't have messy hair or an unzipped flyer, once I was satisfied, I ran to the door and opened it, trying to act casual.

'Hey tom' I smiled at his handsome face

'Hey andypandy' he laughed 'um where are selasi and rav?'

My face flushed red, contrasting with my pale skin.
'Yeahhh' I grimaced 'they couldn't make it' with a false sad tone.
'Oh that's too bad, it just means we get to spend some alone time together' he joked with a wink. What does he mean by this, does he like me back, or is he really upset that its just me and not rav and selasi.

'Come on' i said 'lets go to the kitchen, i thought we could practice our meringue  for next week'

I turned to show him the way but I tripped over, I saw my self falling face first to the floor, my nose would take the full Impact, it would be broken, it would ruin our night. I was ready, but instead of the hard wooden floor, I felt toms strong, warm, bakers arms. He caught me. I began to laugh, the souls music erupted from my mouth, he began to laugh with me, we sounded so good together, my high pitched squeal against his rough manly grunts.

We continued into the kitchen where I had already laid out the ingredients, I had decided to make mine, tom was perfect and so his tart probably needed little practice. We whipped up the pastry, it was a short crust pastry so it wasn't extremely difficult to make, we then made my curd which went extremely well. I didn't forget to blind bake my pastry before putting the filling in, it was going perfectly and tom looked very impressed.

As it was baking tom whipped up a silky meringue, it reminded me of his well conditioned hair. We waited for it to bake, and when it was finally done, we began to spoon the mix into it, as I was very nervous around tom, my hand was shaking, the spoon flew up and hit me hard in the nose, I cried out in agony.

'Andypandy are you okay' tom said behind fits our laughter

'Yeah I'm fine' I replied with a smile

He then looked into my eyes, it felt as though something romantic was happening until he began to laugh again, i sighed again, suddenly feeling very self conscious I asked him of the cause of his laughs.

'You have a little' he said, stroking his structured nose, it made me think of how much I wished I could stroke his nose, or his Wenus.

I tried and failed to wipe it off, so instead he got very close, close enough to kiss me and in one swift motion, licked it off. At first I thought it was cute, until I realised the health risks.

'TOM YOU SHOULD NOT EAT RAW MERINGUE, DID YOU KNOW THAT RAW EGGS WILL GIVE YOU SALMONELLA." I screamed in his face 'gosh you are so unsanitary' I muttered, wiping his saliva off with a face wipe. But I wasn't really mad, I was scared because I knew, if he died, I wouldn't be able to live without my tom.

"I'm sorry" I said "my childhood friend got salmonella and died" I lied, little did he know this was an imaginary friend.

"I'm sorry too that must have been so hard for you" he said pullling me into a hug I smelt his musky cologne on his chest, it smelt like heaven.

"It's fine lets just blowtorch it and watch the film" I had decided that blow torching was the better Idea, Mary would for sure love it.

Once it was finished I put on my favourite romantic film, Shrek, I knew it would put us in the right atmosphere if I was ever going to manipulate hi into loving me back.

I poured us two big glasses of red wine, cut us a slice of pie and played the movie.
I tried to sing along to the opening song (it was one of my faves) but I couldn't keep my thoughts and eyes off tom, he was invested in the film, obviously enjoying its beauty, but I thought he was prettier.

He took a large bite and his mouth was covered in crumbs and curd and meringue
'Hey tom' I whispered 'it's everywhere'

'Oh' his face flushed red and he unsuccessfully tried the wipe it off.

'Here I'll get it' I said, scooching closer to him and putting my finger to his face, as I stared into his lips all I wanted to do was kiss them, and with all my staring I completely missed his, which is why I was so surprised when he kissed me. Frickity frick frick fricky we were fricking kissing. And it was the greates t moment of my life.


Happy wedenesday or bakeday as I call it. Hoping Andrew stays in the competition this week but am also loving all the other contestants.
