Strawberry Surprise

A mixing bowl was floating off the counter with its contents of flour, baking powder, baking soda, sugar, and salt, being mixed evenly together. There was no one manning the mixing spoon or the bowl. It was just floating there and the spoon stirring the contents by it self. Off the side, the oven was being set the right temperature for pre heating by a slim teenager with messy brown hair.

Another boy with long chestnut hair plaited into a long braid going pass the ass was measuring vanilla extract to be poured into another mixing bowl already filled with cream, sugar and grated lemon zest. He then proceed to mix the ingredients with the mixer into soft fluff.

After setting the oven, the brown haired boy took the floating mixing bowl and poured the mixture in to a square pan to be baked.

" Duo, Could you check on the strawberries in the fridge"

"Yea, sure thing Heero." The boy moved from the counter and headed to the fridge and poke his head in to check on the said fruit.

After a while when Duo's head did not reemerge, Heero called out.

"Duo what are you doing in there."

Duo straighten up but he had his fingers in his mouth and the other arm holding the bowl of syrup-ed strawberries.

" Duo those are for the cake. Don't go eating them up now. We'll have none left when your done."

"Well you know Heero, I love my strawberry. I really do. But I love them best serve with whip cream on top of my Heero." With that said Duo pounced.
