"All done." Minako said to herself as she filled a basket with cookies. She then took a red ribbon and tied a bow onto it. "Bye Mom, I'm going out for a while." She called as she left the house.

Minako ran to the temple with the basket in hand. "Rei, Rei!" She called looking around for the priestess.

Rei looked up from her sweeping and over at Minako. "What?" She asked.

"I baked you some cookies." Minako told her as she held out the basket.

Rei looked at the basket before taking it. "Thanks Minako." Rei said as she smiled and took one out. She tried to bit into it but it but it just hurt her teeth. "Minako, it's hard as a rock."

Minako gasped. "Oh Rei, I'm sorry." She apologized as she began to cry. "I just wanted to make you something nice."

Rei just smiled gently. "It's alright." She told Minako as she wrapped her arms around the blonde's waist, giving her a hug. As Rei held Minako close she felt the scent of Minako's hair tickle her nose. "You smell good." Rei whispered. Minako blushed. "Cinnamon. I love the smell of cinnamon."

"Maybe I'll bake more cinnamon cookies then." Minako whispered as she let Rei hold her. The basket of cookies was at there feet unnoticed as the two held each other, enjoying the smell of cinnamon.
