Red studies the pastry with a critical eye, before smiling. It looks perfect, the apples are warm and brown through the slits in the top crust, and the whole kitchen is warm, smelling of apples and cinnamon. He’s not sure why he decided to bake all of a sudden, but it makes him happy and he’s not about to argue with that.

When Lance returns, she finds him waiting with a glass of milk and a slice of apple pie, fresh out of the oven. She sits down on the couch as the Champion hands her a fork, and cuts into flaky crust.

The first bite is heavenly, fresh apple and cinnamon drifting across her tongue, the rest more so. Red beams at her, and then asks if it tastes okay.

“You’ve outdone yourself.” Lance says. “I never knew you could cook so well.”

“Mom taught me – I had a lot of free time since there weren’t any other kids to play with.”

“I see,” She smiles, and kisses him, who grins. “In that case, perhaps we should take turns making dinner.”

He wriggles. “I’ll think about it.”

Fluffy~! ^^ I know Red’s acting domestic. Oops! But it’s not like they’re going to have kids and raise a family or anything…
