Okay, I hope you guys are not mad at me... I haven't at all given up on this story, but I'll have a hard time posting on the next two weeks, since I'm on exams period - blaaaaagh - stupid school. Anyhow, this one is a prompt from Rose-loves-Dimitri, who suggested Sydrian plus food/cooking :) Hope you guys like it.

Title: Cake

Pairing: Sydney/Adrian

Word Count: 834

Disclaimer: This is literally the 10th time I'm saying I don't own it. If you still think I do, we need to sit down and talk.

"Adrian! That's too much flour." Sydney said, hurriedly taking the cup from his hand and taking some of the flour from inside it. She handed it back to him with a frustrated sigh. Jill's birthday was on the next day and she had let Adrian convince her to help him bake the moroi a cake.

"You know, there's no need to be this precise; a little more flour won't ruin the whole cake." He joked. Truthfully, he had asked for her help because he knew nothing about cooking and – although she was no chef – she was really good with following instructions.

She raised him an eyebrow, while he poured the white powder into the bowl. "Why don't you go butter the cake pan while I mix this?" The blond offered, gently shooing him away with the whisk, and getting some chocolate powder on her apron.

After he was done with the cake pan, his eyes wondered to his companion. She was focused on her task, her wrist making tiny circular movements with incredible speed, to make sure that the batter would be just right. When she was done, the brown goo was poured into the pan, the pan was put into the oven, and the oven's timer was set to forty-five minutes.

Turning around, she found him ready to put a finger covered in cake batter into his mouth. "What do you think you're doing?" She asked him in exasperation.

"Eating the batter." He answered; frowning at her like she'd lost her mind, he raised his finger and the goo covered whisk, as if to emphasize his point. When the exasperated look didn't leave her features, he widened his eyes. "You've never eaten raw batter before?"

"Of course not! Do you know how much sugar is in this thing?" She raised her eyebrows at him. Why had he even asked? Of course, Sydney wouldn't even look twice at something that had more calories, sugar or fat than a bowl of Caesar Salad.

"And here I thought you were going to say something about salmonella and whatnot." He shrugged, putting his finger in his mouth, sucking it clean, and then wiping it on a paper towel.

"The probability of getting salmonella is really small and, even if you did get salmonella, I don't think it would affect you… It's a human disease." The Alchemist rolled her eyes at him and smirked. As silly as it seemed, she really did like telling him these things, even if he already knew them.

A smile spread across his face, as he took some more chocolate batter on his finger and placed it in front of her face. "Come on, try it." She gave him a look and shook her head, already turning around, but he dropped the whisk into the bowl and took her hand. "Please? For me?" He tried, giving her his best mock puppy-eyes look.

Laughter overtook her. "You're not going to let go of me if I don't, are you?" Maybe she could humor him, it's not like he had a lot of batter on his finger and from the stubborn look on his face; it would be much easier if she just gave in. "Fine" She huffed. "But don't get used to it." She had already raised her finger to sweep the goo from his, when he took his finger away.

"Nuh-uh" He shook his head. "Who said you could use your finger?" He raised his eyebrows and smiled brightly, while watching her blush furiously. He was probably pushing his luck, but there was nothing he liked more than watching her get all uncomfortable around him.

Her teeth sunk into her lower lip when he placed his finger in front of her mouth. Yes, they were sort of together, but this was the place she always felt uncomfortable in their "relationship". The sexual place. Adrian was a huge flirt, and obviously he was used to throwing innuendos out there, he was no blushing virgin; she, on the other hand, was very insecure about herself and her appearance, though her kind of boyfriend didn't hesitate to shower her with compliments.

After a deep breath she decided to play along; partly because that was the last thing he was expecting from her, and partly because – though she was embarrassed – she kind of wanted to do it. She opened her mouth and encased his finger, sucking on it and licking its surface, to make sure she'd gotten everything. So, the cake batter did taste great, but that wasn't what she was focusing on, at that the moment.

The moroi felt his stomach do a flip; he was not expecting that at all. Slowly, he removed his finger from her mouth, cupped her face with his hands and kissed her hungrily. His tongue made its way into her mouth and teased hers, making the girl moan. The only thought in his mind was that they could have a lot of fun in forty-five minutes.

Lol, my Sydrian ones are always the longest... Whoops. u

Oh, I have two prompts left and a Janine/Abe idea, so if you want to review and leave ideas, I'd love you forever :)
