Louis likes numbers. He likes patterns, spreadsheets, the way statistics make sense when nothing else does.
He also likes The Great British Bake Off, Ina Garten reruns, and the brand-new bakery around the corner.
The owner of the bakery is tattooed, green-eyed, has curls that flop into his face, forearms that look strong enough to knead bread for hours. Harry seems determined to tease him out of hiding - offering free samples, terrible pastry puns, and making sure Louis always gets the first taste of his newest releases (in more ways than one)
OR shy stats nerd Louis, soft-dom baker Harry, cream pie jokes that get very real, encouragement kink, and a kitchen-counter scene that will make Paul Hollywood proud.

Prompt 271: A shy Louis slowly becomes a regular at a local bakery because he's a sucker for pastries. Bakery owner Harry takes notice and likes to make sure Louis always gets the first taste of his newest releases (wink wink). Bonus points for gentle dom Harry. (Inspiration: Prompt 207 from the BLFF 2021).
