After about two or three hours, Miku sat up from the bed. She looked around, wondering where SeeU was. She wasn't in the room but she could hear her and she could smell something… delicious. Her curiosity was tempted as she walked out of the room and started downstairs
SeeU was bouncing around the kitchen. She was making something nicer than what she'd normally eat since Miku was staying over… Well, she thought Miku was staying over.
Miku watched from an archway for a few minutes before speaking up, "SeeU… what are you doing?"
"Cooking~," SeeU said in a playful voice, "I was thinking that maybe you'd want to eat with me…"
"I'm not going to eat with you." Miku said seriously before starting away. Although she wanted to keep walking away, the smell was too tempting. She had to try some which caused her to shamefully walk back, "I- I guess I could eat a little bit."
SeeU smiled, "Then, could you help me? I'm trying to decide if I should make cake or cookies."
"Cake," Miku spoke instantly then began explaining her logic, "If you make cookies then you won't be able to make that many and we- you'll end up eating them all tonight. If you make a cake you can layer it and make a larger cake which means we- I mean you can eat it over a longer period of time. Also you can layer it with multiple flavors."
SeeU nodded, "I see… Hey Miku, want to help me make it?"
"It's not like it'll make much of a difference but okay." Miku sighed and walked into the kitchen and saw what SeeU had been cooking while she was asleep. It was something she had never even seen before.
SeeU started looking for ingredients the looked back at Miku who was staring at the two plates.
Miku looked up, "Hey SeeU, what did you make?"
"Oh, that stuff. Not much, just some Tiger Prawn Malai Curry, Braised Short Ribs, Apple Cranberry Crisp and Baked Alaska but it's not on fire. That seemed dangerous."
"…Most of it looks like dessert," Miku commented softly.
"It is!" SeeU said excitedly, "I couldn't decide what dessert to make, so I made three!"
"Three? There's only two… Unless that was the cake." Miku sighed, "You're gonna feel terrible tonight if you eat all of this by yourself. I guess now I have to help you eat."
SeeU smiled, "I'm glad you're helping me. But first, we have to finish making the cake."
Miku sighed as she walked over to SeeU to help with the cake. It was difficult to work with SeeU because of how playful she was. Miku felt especially awkward when SeeU licked cake mix from her cheek. No one had ever even come close to touching her cheek. Licking it and not getting hurt had to mean you were special… or she was too dazed to hurt you.
After the cake was in the oven the two girls sat at the table with their food. SeeU looked up at Miku occasionally to see how happy the food made her. To conceal this though, SeeU had to keep a constant eating speed. It was silent the entire time they ate, until the alarm on the oven went off.
"I got it," SeeU stood up and went back into the kitchen to turn off the timer and take the cake out.
Soon after, Miku followed SeeU in who had started putting icing and sprinkles on the cake, without Miku's consent.
"O- oh, hey Miku. It came out really nice for it to be three layers. I think the fact that we mixed, chocolate, red velvet, and vanilla makes it best. I've already put icing between all the layers so there's no work that you need to do." SeeU's ears twitched. She thought could feel Miku's slight anger.
A soft sigh lead up to Miku walking over to SeeU and putting a hand on her shoulder, "Next time, don't match the icing with the cake flavor below it. It taste more exciting."
"W- what? You're not mad at me?" SeeU's tail raised excitedly.
"No, not at all. I can forgive anything you do tonight because you're making me cake." Miku said softly.
"What if I kiss you?" SeeU asked, trying to test the boundaries.
Remember that blush from last chapter? It's back, "…A kiss? I might…" She had never been kissed before so it'd be more likely that she would forgive SeeU.
SeeU nodded, "I'll keep that in mind. Anyways, let's wait for the cake to cool off."
"And do what?" Miku asked curiously.
"Let's… let's get to know each other better." SeeU suggested before lightly tugging her into the living room.
