Domestic drabble about how Harry attempts to teach the big bad dark lord how to cook. He tries something simple but Tom somehow makes it impossible. I think this is really cute and fluffy so enjoy. Also, yes this is the recipe I use for crepes.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------

"Okay so we are making something very simple," Harry stated as he turned the stove onto medium high heat. Tom just hummed as he looked at the ingredients in front of him. An egg, flour, water, milk, and butter sat innocently on the table. "Crepes!"

"Why did I let you rope me into this?" Tom muttered as Harry got out a small bowl and a few measuring cups.

"You love me." Harry stated as he kissed Tom on the cheek. With a dramatic sigh, Tom rested his arm on the table.

"That I do." Tom conceded as Harry started to pick up the ingredients one by one.

"The ingredients for this recipe are 1 egg, 1/2 cup flour, 3/8 cup milk, 1/4 cup milk, and 1 1/2 tablespoons of butter," Harry started motioning to the measuring cups, a blender, and the pan. "We use a butter so the batter is fine and has no clumps. It is what gives crepes their signature texture."

"I'll pretend I know what that means." Tom says with no snark behind it. Harry just chuckles as he hands Tom the egg.

"Luckily we are using a blender, so in the end, the order we put the ingredients in doesn't really matter. Now you know how to crack an egg right?" Harry asked as put his hands on his hips.

"I'm the Dark Lord, of course, I know how to crack an egg."

'I have no idea how to crack an egg.'

Harry just raised an eyebrow at his statement. Lean arms motioned towards the blender. Tom followed them and stood over the blender internally debating whether or not to tell Harry he has no idea what the hell is going on. After a few seconds of no movement, Harry sighs and takes the egg from Tom. Making drawn out movements with his hands, Harry cracks the egg and places the shell in the bin.

"Now, this step you can most definitely do," Harry states with a smirk as he grabs the half cup measuring cup. Undoing the flour bag, he fills the cup. With the blade of a knife, Harry removes the excess while Tom stands awkwardly to the side. "Take this from my hand an put it in the blender. Please try not to spill any of it."

Timid hands take the measuring cup and even more nervous feet walk over towards the blender. Tom stuck his tongue out in concentrating, making Harry coo internally, and poured the flour in. Turning to his boyfriend, Tom had the biggest grin on his face. Harry also had a grin on his face, but not from satisfaction. His grin came about because of the scene his lovely boyfriend made. It was so adorable in Harry's opinion.

The rest of the ingredients were added to the blender in a similar fashion. Harry would carefully measure the exact amount and Tom would, with a face of pure focus, put it in the blender.

Putting a lid on the blender, after the ingredients were added, Harry turned to Tom with a large smirk on his face. Not breaking his gaze, Harry pressed down on the mixing setting of the blender. A very loud and very sudden sound filled the kitchen. Although Tom would deny it, he jumped very high up in the air. Harry's chuckles filled the room as Tom attempted to save what was left of his pride.

"Babe," Harry spoke through bouts of laughter. "I had no idea a blender would cause you to jump 10 feet in the air."

"Shut up." Tom huffed as he crossed his arms. Harry sighed with a smile and uncrossed his boyfriends arms. Pecking a kiss on his boyfriends lips, Harry voiced an offer.

"If you keep cooking with me, I'll let you use those silk ropes you have been dying to use tonight." Tom was suddenly very enthusiastic about making crepes.

After that night of passion, anytime someone would mention crepes, Harry would blush bright red while Tom would smirk. It was one of their fondest memories.
