after the two boys finished enjoying yet another christmas movie, the credits started to play and zach whined, stretching along daniel's body. he was very comfortable, and so was daniel. the two had been laying on their sides facing the tv, daniel's arms wrapped tightly around the brunet's waist. although he was comfortable, the blonde had been very stiff, wanting to get up and do something else.

zach turned in his place, a pretty grin falling upon his face to which the elder happily returned at the adorable boy. "hi," he mumbled a soft voice.

"hey," he snickered lightly as zach began to sit up from their laying postion on the couch. "okay, so..." the petite brunette boy mumbled off as he stood before taking small struts from around where he was.

"christmas activity one, watch movies. now for christmas activity two..." he spoke almost inaudibly, talking mostly to himself as he was thinking and looking around.

the brown eyed boy let out a small gasp, widening his eyes and smiling brightly. he had made his way to the small kitchen of his place, turning around and being thankful that daniel had followed slowly behind him.

"cookies!" he grinned, skipping over to the pantry and glancing all around it, "we need to make christmas cookies." he hummed to himself, wiggling his hips happily as he looked for the things he would most likely be needing and beginning to pull them out.

daniel tilted his head slightly and raised and eyebrow at the younger boy. "i don't think this is going to turn out well... we all know neither one of us is great or even remotley good at baking," he chuckled.

despite the muscular boys' comment, zach cheerfully trotted over the tile towards the small fridge. "it's christmas cookies, how hard could they be?" the boy shrugged once more carrying eggs and butter in his hands over to the counter top.

the taller just sighed at his crush, knowing either way he would give in to the loveable boy. "if you say so," the blue-eyed boy began to whistle as he pulled out his phone to search up recipes.

zach looked over his shoulder on his toes, scrolling until the small boy was content with a recipe they had found to make. upon finding one, zach got out measuring cups, bowls, mixing tools, and any extra ingredients the two may have needed.

really, how hard could it be?

𐂂𐂂𐂂

it was extremely hard to make christmas cookies.

"so much for being easy," daniel sighed looking at the mess that was made around the kitchen of the decently sized apartment.

somehow, they ended up with spills of flours and liquids all over the floor, loads of dishes, and they cookies that they tried to bake that had just ended up as a failed attmept.

the older boy gave the brunette a look to which he blushed and shook his hands. "don't give me that look! my mom always made them look so easy," he pouted, crossing his arms around the apron he had put on.

daniel chuckled at the blushing boy, smiling in adoration. "so what now?"

zach leaned against the kitchen counter where three bowls of doughs, liquids, and dry ingredients sat; listening to daniel's words. "i really wanted christmas cookies, now there is no more fun," he let out a dramatic breath, coming out as a sigh. he wanted fun.

a mischevious smile spread across his mouth, soon turning into a pretty grin that he hid back with the tip of his tooth. he spared daniel short gaze, thankful that the boy wasn't looking at him.

because, the next thing either one of them knew, daniel was letting out a gasp and zach was letting out fits of giggles as flour now covered daniel's face and body.

the younger boy laughed, slowly backing away from the elder. "oh it's on."

and so, despite the failed attempt of nice-sugary christmas cookies, they had their fun in the kitchen with flour and laughs; a new memory of 2020 christmas eve.
