Summary: Honoka bakes cakes and Umi eats them.

Author Notes

Ideas burst in my mind much faster this time and I happen to had time at my keyboard. OwO

For burnmeumi request~ :D

May you enjoy! XD


"Honoka." Umi calls solemnly while the chef-in-the-making sophomore turns around to face Umi – broad smile brighter than the flour across the gingerhead's face and a whisk in hand, a mixing bowl in another. "For every slice of cake you're making me eat, we are running another ten rounds around campus."

Just how much calories have I intake for you, Honoka?

Honoka's smile dropped as her eyes widened in horror, her perfected pressure for whisking broken as her hands stopped moving. "Ehh~?! B-But- but!"

Umi raised a challenging eyebrow.

Honoka is cute when she's flustered.

"You said the cake before was a little lacking in sweetness! And the cake before-before was too sweet! And the one before-before-before-"

"Was good, but you wanted to make it look better." The unfazed bluenette filled in for her girlfriend.

Every cake or really, any food you cook is delicious, Honoka. But I have to be strict as you want it.

"Appearance is important for a top chef!" Honoka defended, her always adorable pout adorned as her weapon.

Umi looked away for a second before clearing her throat. "I won't deny that. But how did you lose the recipe for the taste before?"

"I didn't lose it…" Honoka was full on pouting now as she crossed her arms. "It's cause I'm trying out strawberries from different countries and I thought you might like to try different cream too…"

Hm. It's true that the strawberries had varying size and sweetness… Plus the cream at times were fluffier than the other…

Umi sighs, defeated by how much effort her usually lazy girlfriend was putting in for this cake assignment, there was how cute Honoka is when she's doing her best and pouting too.

You are really working hard, Honoka. I'm proud of you.

"Umi-chan?" Honoka looks over with innocent blue eyes while Umi pets Honoka's head.

Umi smiles, her almond eyes reflecting love. "I understand how important perfecting this is to you, Honoka."

And I'll be here to support you however I am capable of.

"Umi-chan…" Honoka murmurs as she felt touched.

"We're still going running after." Umi gives Honoka another pat before returning to her seat with a happy smile.

That means more time spent together after all.

"Ehh~~ Umi-chan is a meanie~!" Honoka complains and thrashes her hand about to get her girlfriend's attention for a good five minutes before restarting the next batch of cakes with strawberries as her main concept since Umi's rather smug smile remained no matter how much Honoka appealed.

I feel like this idea can be expanded on more~ *O* But for now, a short and simple one~ XD

Umi has always been concerned for Honoka's stomach and calorie intake after all! XD And this time it's Umi doing the heavy eating for her girlfriend! *w*

I hope y'all enjoyed it~ :D
