You meticulously flipped an egg with the spatula in your right hand, rocking side to side to the music playing on your speakers. The smell from dinner filled the kitchen, along with a little bit of smoke, which set off the fire alarm.

You groaned when it began beeping wildly, standing on your tip toes in an attempt to turn it off. You couldn't reach, so you grabbed a chair from the dining table and placed it underneath the device. You balanced yourself on the chair and stood tall. Your fingers barely grazed the fire alarm.

You caught the side of the chair as you fell to the side slightly, but didn't give up.

The front door shut quietly as Ben hung up his coat and slid out of his shoes. He first the fire alarm, and panicked for a second, before he smelled the food you were cooking. He smiled to himself and peeked around the corner into the kitchen.

His smile grew as he saw you struggling to turn off the fire alarm. He crept up behind you and swept you up into his arms. You yelped as the chair was swept out from underneath you.

Your nose wafted with his cologne as your head hit his chest gently. You looped your arms around his neck, grinning up at him as he twirled you around.

Ben dropped your feet to the ground, holding firmly to your waist as you caught your balance.

"Cooking, I see?" He laughed, causing you to lightly hit chest and pull your arms back.

You stepped backwards, but Ben grabbed your elbows and pulled you towards him. "Don't be rude," you scrunched up your nose.

Ben kissed you gently and you practically melted into his arms.
