It started as joke, really.

Em and Axel were in the kitchen of their newly acquired shared apartment, attempting to bake in their new home for the first time ever.

After dating for a year, three months and two days (yes, they have been counting, they're lovesick sue them), they finally have a place to call their own. They've always felt at home enough just being in each other's presence, but having a space to share made them feel even closer than before.

And naturally, of course, they thought what better way to break in the new apartment than baking? And what's more celebratory than a cake?

So that morning, after a plethora of sleepy nose kisses and whispered i love yous they finally dragged themselves out of bed and to the nearest supermarket, where, with help from google, they bought new groceries and all the necessary ingredients for a chocolate cake.

And so now they were in their fully stocked kitchen, ingredients and materials spread out on the kitchen island waiting to be manipulated into a sweet confection before they realized they had one problem.

Em tsked, placing her hands on the counter,"Okay, so neither of us know how to make cake," she realized, already wondering why the hell she thought this was a good idea.

Axel laughed, shrugging. "How hard could it be? I mean we've got the flour, eggs, sugar," he begins, grabbing each item has he lists them off. "Cocoa powder. You put all that shit together, throw that shit in the oven and then it puffs up." He scratches his head, probably realizing just how dumb and incomprehensible his instructions were.

Em rolls her eyes fondly. "That didn't even make sense to you." She begins to exit the kitchen. "Wait here, I'm gonna go get my phone so we can ask Google."

She pads into their shared bedroom (she smiles at the reminder that she's now living with the love of her life), and grabs her phone off of the charger before making her way back to the kitchen.

She asks Siri to pull up a chocolate cake recipe, before she pulls herself up to sit on the counter. "Okay," she starts, looking at her boyfriend. "I'm gonna tell you the directions and you're going to follow them."

He nods, "Yeah".

"First things first, add 2 cups of flour," she instructs, and so Axel carefully measures out two cups of flour before adding it to the bowl.

She nods. "Good. Now add two cups of sugar." He repeats the process of the flour using the sugar.

"Now, two eggs. The large ones." He cracks the eggs, careful not to get the shells in the mixture. "Okay, add 3/4 cups of the cocoa powder." He measures the powder, dumping it into the bowl, and taking a bit for himself, scooping it with his fingers and popping it into his mouth. Em watches, giggling, as her boyfriend's face scrunches up at the bitter taste.

She guides him through the rest of the steps, before he pours the batter into two baking tins and (in his eloquent wording) tosses that shit in the oven.

Thirty minutes of cuddling on the couch and 100 soft fond smiles later, the oven dinged, signaling that their cakes were ready. They rush to the kitchen, taking the cakes out of the oven and letting them cool before layering and decorating it. Axel pipes out the word: ROOMMATES before crossing the word 'room' out with a line of buttercream frosting and replacing it with 'SOUL'. Em smiles widely upon seeing it, dabbing a bit of buttercream onto her partner's nose, cooing at how adorable he is.

Axel smiles softly, cutting a slice of the cake before plating it. He grabs a piece with his fork and holds it out to his girlfriend, and she leans forward to take a bite. He waits for her reaction.
