Lost without you

Chapter 7~ Dessert

~~~(Ross's P.O.V.)~~~~

Glad we finished Bed wars and honestly really shocked we did so good that we won twice. Of course, the recording took about 2 hours since we had to record for mine and Max's channel. After both recordings, we then talked off-camera for another 2 hours. I know we normally hang out and do videos sometimes we eat while talking about just random things. 

Of course, I'd already eaten breakfast and lunch, I spent the rest of my time alone in my room. I look at the clock. Hmmm, 6:40 might as well make some Mac and cheese for dinner. I walk over to the kitchen glad to have the kitchen to myself. I quickly cooked it up and scarfed it down. Wow, I really was hungry. Hmm maybe I should take some to Max, I walk over and slightly open the door and set down the food on the nightstand.

~~~Time skip 40 minutes later~~~

Watching anime is great alone but it's even better watching it with Max. Joy sprang to my face, I knew what to do. I could make some dessert. Oh, that sounds splendid, wait but then again I don't want to make this cake alone. 

Before going to Max's room, I turn off the hallway light and make my way to his room. Walking over to Max's room I silently open the door just in case he's asleep. I come up with a clever plan to scare him. I feel my face redden to a dark crimson color something so amazing I just. I see Max taking off his clothes slowly, his stunning silhouette in the darkness only barely visible by the moonlight shining through from the curtain. He still hasn't seemed to notice me watching him, stunned standing by the doorway.

~~~~(Max's P.O.V.)~~~~

It's been a long day but a very good one, matter in fact plus I was finally able to catch up on the sleep I missed this morning. So since I have time to fully think about what happened earlier with Ross and Jess's conversation. Hmm, why can't I know about it? I sigh hmm well whatever it is might not be as important at the moment if I don't even know about it. 

I stand up opening the curtains just a bit having the moonlight fill in the room but still let the darkness consume part of the room. Looking over my room I notice something there's a bowl? Wow, Ross must've come in while I was sleeping ah silly squirrel. I quickly scarfed down my food and decided to take a nice warm shower.

 I walk back to my window and start to slowly take off my clothes. Suddenly I feel a pair of eyes on me but maybe it's just all in my head. I finish taking off my clothes and stand closer to the window. After I snap back to reality, I turn around shocked to see a stunned Ross by the doorway.

"Ross?," I say, maybe it is just all in my head until

"I...I...I should go" Ross says rushing down the stairs. Wait it wasn't all my imagination. Well now, this is awkward but then again maybe I can have fun with this. Yeah, I quickly think it seems he wanted to ask me something so hmm. I quickly put on my clothes and rushed downstairs only to see Ross hugging a plushie that I bought him last year aw cute.

"Dude I'm so so so sorry, I didn't mean to interrupt you," He says barely audible through the plushie but I could still hear. I smile coming closer to Ross, still such a blushing mess.

"Nah totally fine don't worry about it, Ross," I say feeling my face going red again not wanting to act quickly on my plan I'll just act casual.

"H-Hey Max, I wanted to ask you if you wanted to make a cake with me?" He says his face slowly going back to normal. Hmm, wait actually this may work in my favor. Not realizing I start to chuckle and now I fully see a confused Ross looking at me.

"Yes sorry that startled you but yes I'd love to make a cake with you," I say and move towards the kitchen. I hear the pitter-patter of Ross' feet passing me heading towards the cupboards.

"Okay, so what do we need?' I say looking through the fridge. Now fully having my full attention to Ross.

"Hmm, here it says we need oil, water, and 3 eggs," He says, seeming happier.

"What type of cake are we making?" I ask, trying to look at the picture but can't make out what it is. Ross is covering it with his hand.

"Oh well I want an all-chocolate cake but we can always make the other cake," He says now having direct eye contact with me. Now blooming a bright grin waiting for me to respond.

"Hm, Nah I love chocolate cake anyways," I say heading towards the countertop with all the ingredients.

"Okay, you have the bowl right?" I say and see him move towards the cupboards again and pull out a bowl."Okay great, so now we just need to put all the ingredients" I say smiling. We put all the ingredients in and I start to throw away the box and the eggshells to the trash. I walk back over to see my cute squirrel struggling to mix the ingredients.

"Here," I say walking closer but instead of taking the bowl from him. I walk behind him and move my arms under his. Grabbing his with my own and help with the mixture.

"I..Thanks Maxy," He says in a soft whisper turning away trying to avoid looking at me. But works horribly I move one hand away and move his face a bit closer to mine.

"Don't worry about it my little squirrel" I whisper in his ear, he tensed a bit. What I didn't expect was for him to close the little space between us and lean on me. He then seemed to settle in and let a smile spread over his face.We finished the mixture and poured it all in the pan. Ross grabbed the pan, then bent over putting the pan in the oven. I couldn't stop myself I just caved in and continued to stare at Ross's cake.
