Every Sunday, Dolan goes to the small bakery across from his work. At first, he simply went for the pastries and beverages. However, over time he realized it may not be because of the delicious items. Instead, it was the short brunette who worked the counter everyday. His name was Harrison, 18 years old and very adorable. Dolan met Harrison a little over a year ago on his first trip there. He had been talking to a co-worker who suggested he try the bakery. Ever since then, he's been going every week.

Dolan walked into the bakery with a green scarf pulled around his neck. As soon as he stepped in, his eyes immediately searched for the familiar brown mop. He frowned slightly when he saw someone else at the counter. He walked swiftly up to her and maybe a bit too urgently asked, "Who are you? Where's Harrison?" Despite his not so polite tone, the girl looked up and smiled. Her smile was goofy and she almost laughed. "You must be Dolan, the boy Harrison goes on about-" "-ROWAN!" Right on cue, an angry, and covered in flour Harrison came marching out of the kitchen. "Don't TELL him that!" Dolan smirked and scanned the boy up and down at his frazzled and embarrassed appearance. "Hey Harrison." His ears were bright red and he smiled softly. "Hi Dolan.." Rowan snorted and Harrison elbowed her. "Alright, he wants you so I'll go finish up in the back." Rowan gave Harrison a wink and left to take his place in the kitchen. It was then that Harrison realized how messy he was, with flour on his apron and somehow even in his hair. He quickly took off and hung up his apron and ruffled his hair, white powder flying everywhere. He stood back up an adjusted his shirt. "Uhm...I was baking." Dolan, who was watching the whole thing rather amused, nodded knowingly. "Ah, that explains the flour." Harrison's cheeks tinted pink but he readjusted himself as best as possible. "So what can I get for you today?" Dolan focused his eyes from him to the pastry case. He knelt down and looked at them all. "You have anything new?" he asked. Harrison thought for a moment, "We have a new cherry pie and I recently updated our lemon bread recipe." Dolan stood up straight and raised and eyebrow. "You updated it? That bread was pretty damn good, I don't know how it could get any better." Harrison smiled, "You can always make things better if you find the right ingredients!" Dolan shook his head, "There's no way it's any better than last time." Harrison thought for a second, "Okay then...lets bet on it." Dolan laughed, "a bet with me?...okay, what are the conditions?" Harrison's cheeks heated up even more but he didn't back down, "If you try it and it's the same, I have to give you your stuff for free...but if I win and it's better, you have to buy me dinner." Dolan lost his composure for a quick moment. "Like..a date?" Harrison shook his head. "Not like a date. A date." He weighed the pros an cons for a second but in the end, he agreed. So Harrison pulled out a small piece of the bread and gave it to him. He looked at it and scoffed. "It doesn't look any different.." Harrison rolled his eyes, "just try it." Dolan rolled his eyes but took a bite of it. It took him a minute to access the flavors and the differences from last time. He slowly put the bread down and sighed. "Alright Pendrake...you've got yourself a date."
