Sorry I didn't update yesterday, it was the first day of a new semester! Anywho, I don't know where the ending came from, it was late, and I was past thinking. Also, anyone else see the MTV interview with Leon? Anyone else's heart shatter? You know the drill, please, please review, it makes my day and reminds me to write.


We were sitting on my couch, absent mindedly watching some Saturday morning cartoons. As far as I could tell a bunch of barnyard animals were trying to kill each other, but I really couldn't tell. I felt Jade shift around and could tell I had a few seconds before the cartoons would come to an end.

Sure enough, less than a minute later she grabbed the remote and turned off the television, flipping over so she was straddling me.

"This is boring."

"Come on, we're been watching it for over an hour."

"Exactly, and now I'm bored."

"Well what do you want to do?"

"You ask me that almost every weekend!"

"Well that's because I seem to be put in charge of entertaining you every weekend."

"Well you really should get better at your job."

With a sigh I got up and walked around my RV, trying to think of something. That's when I remembered that we had plans with our friends that evening; a whole night of movies and socialization. I figured I could keep us from bringing yet another bag of chips and solve Jade's short attention span problem all in one coup.

"You like cooking?"

"What?"

".?"

"Why?"

"Just wondering?"

"Is this the lead in to some 'go make me a sandwich' joke?"

"Haha, no. It's just that I have come up with the perfect thing for us to do today."

"I'm not making you a sandwich."

"You won't have to."

With that I pulled her to her feet, grabbing her hand as we made our way into my parents' empty house. Although they normally got well enough along with Jade, I was still glad that they weren't home today. Jade was always in a better mood when there weren't people around.

"So why are we cooking?"

"To bring with us tonight-"

"Ugh."

"What?"

"I'm putting effort into and wasting my day making, food for Vega and Jew Fro?"

"They have names."

"Not good ones."

"I'm not arguing with you about this. Either come help me, or go sit in the living room by yourself for the rest of the day."

She shot me a glare and crossed her arms over her chest, pouting about as well as a two year old. I decided the best way to deal with her was to just go into the kitchen, and I wasn't surprised to hear her following behind.

I began getting bowls and measuring cups out and arranging them on the counter. I went to open up the pantry when I realized that we didn't know what we were making. I turned around to look at Jade and saw that she was sitting on the counter, eating chocolate chips out of the bag.

"What?"

"What are you doing?"

"Product testing. Wouldn't want your precious Tori to get food poisoning, now would we?"

"Put the chippits away, we have to figure out what we're going to make."

"Well, what do you know how to make?"

"We can just pick something and find a recipe online or something."

"Well are we going there for supper, or just snack food?"

"Snacks."

"So why aren't we just buying chips like normally?"

"Because I don't want to."

This led to Jade pulling out her Pearpad and searching up the easiest snack foods she could find. After a few minutes of arguing and scrolling, we finally settled on chocolate chip cookies, mostly so that I could get Jade to stop eating the chippits.

"Have you even ever made cookies before?"

"No, but how hard can it be?"

"Beck, we're going to end up poisoning everyone!"

"No we won't, just relax and read me the ingredients."

Almost an hour later we had finally assembled the ingredients and were attempting to make the cookies. Then came the issue of figuring out how large to make the balls of dough. We couldn't figure out how much they would spread, but we figured better too big than too small, right?

"They don't look right."

"They look fine."

"Maybe we measured something wrong?"

"Beck, shut up, I'm not redoing them."

We waited for them to finish cooking and then took the first batch out of the oven, replacing them with another tray loaded with dough. We both stood around the cooling rack, staring at the cookies, neither one knowing if they were done or not.

"They look fine."

"Yeah, but they might still be raw."

"Here-"

"Jade! You cannot stick your finger in them!"

"It was just one!"

"But you can't!"

"Beck, calm your chiz. At least now we know that they're cooked."

"Don't poke any more."

We finally finish baking them all off, and I clean the kitchen up (no help from Jade). After we eat it's almost time to get going to Tori's house, so we head back to the RV.

"Is it too late to back out?"

"Yes, it is way too late to back out."

"We could just drop the cookies off and then leave."

"No."

"But there are so many other things we could be doing tonight."

"There's nothing more interesting that we could be doing."

"Oh really. No, say, clotheless things?"

"Well we could do those things right now."

"But then we'd be late for your party."

"No we wouldn't, I can do it."

"That doesn't say a lot for you, Beck."

"Thirty minutes or three hours, I have you moaning every time."

"Thirty minutes and you barely have it up."

"Ok, let's go, I'm not taking this."

"We're going to be late."

"Just you wait and see."


R&R please!
