This is short and the product of a late night browsing of story prompts. Hope you guys enjoy!
6-Flaws
"Well, well, well, I finally found something Naru the Narcissist isn't good at," Mai commented with a smirk as she leaned against the doorway. "Other than admitting feelings."
"I proposed, didn't I?" Naru remarked with a scowl as he waved a towel by the smoke detector to keep the smoke from it. Mai couldn't help but laugh as she went over to the oven and turned it off. "You find this hilarious."
She walked over to the window and opened it. She also plugged in a fan and had it facing outside to help guide the smoke out. The big day was only a couple short months away and Mai was pretty much in charge of all the wedding plans. She was getting stressed out about the details and Naru really was of no help as he focused on the office. He decided he would do something nice and try cooking her dinner. Try, being the keyword.
Turns out the Narcissist can't cook. He could make tea almost as good as Mai herself, but he couldn't manage an oven. Mai had just gotten to his apartment after working out wedding details with Ayako and couldn't help but laugh at the scene.
It also didn't help that he was wearing the pink, ruffled apron Mai had left from cooking for him one night. "It is hilarious," she said, walking over to him and standing on tiptoes to kiss his cheek. "And incredibly sweet, but I think we should order out tonight. Is that okay?"
The smoke had finally calmed down and Naru pulled the pan out of the oven. Whatever had been on the menu that night, well, let's just say a starving dog couldn't eat it. Naru threw the dish into the sink. "I'll leave the cooking to you from now on," he admitted in defeat.
"Agreed," Mai smiled as he leaned down and kissed her lips. It was hard to believe it had been seven months since Naru had gotten on one knee in the middle of the night and asked her what neither of them thought would ever happen. She pulled away and looked into his deep indigo eyes. "C'mon, my treat, where do you want to order from?"
He gave her a squeeze and broke away. He pulled off the apron and put away the oven mitt. "Grab my keys off the counter," he said grabbing his jacket off of the chair. "And it's my treat."
Mai smirked and followed him out the door with a roll of her eyes. What a narcissist.
He was a narcissist. He wasn't perfect. In so many ways he was the most flawed person on the planet. But Mai wouldn't have him any other way.
These cute fluffy scenes will probably be short like this one, primarily because I'm not very good at expanding on those moments. (I'm just scary good at writing depressing scenes I guess lol) But I found a prompt and I was like "I like this" and ta da! Naru can't cook! But he tries! That's the important thing.
I feel like Naru would try something like this for Mai. Do something sweet for her once in a while. And I mean once in a while. Because we all know he gets caught up in his work and would forget to sleep if it weren't for Mai and Lin. I hope you guys enjoyed and review!
