Tom/Shannon
Cupcakes
"It's freezing out there." Tom Okanawe yelled, as he came in the back door of his best friends house.
"Well it is winter." Shannon replied as if it were obvious.
Which it was of course.
"No shit." The boy replied, rolling his eyes as he took off his coat.
"What are you making?" Tom asked when he seen the red haired girl mixing a dark brown concoction in a metal mixing bowl.
"I am baking cupcakes." Shan explained, as she stirred.
In return, the brown eyed boy burst into a fit of laughter.
"And what's so funny?" Shannon asked, looking up from the bowl and easing her eyebrow confused at her friend.
"You baking." Tom managed to muster out in his fit of giggles.
"Why would that be funny?" The teen asked.
Shannon grabbed the cupcake tin and put it right next to the mixing bowl.
"Don't you remember?" Tom asked.
"Remember what?" Shannon asked.
The girl started putting the batter in the cupcake tin, waiting for her friend to tell the story that she was supposed to remember.
"The time you made cupcakes in primary school. They were as hard as a rock,you couldn't even bite into them." Tom explained laughing.
Shannon sighed.
"Tom, I was nine. And need I remind you, that you wore the same soccer jersey for a
month straight." Shannon sassed back, while she finished filling the tins.
"Yeah, well- shut up." Tom babbled.
Shannon smiled in victory. Then turned around and opened the oven, letting the steam come out and got up her glasses. She waited until the fog was gone and then placed the cupcake tin in it and shit the oven door.
"By the way, where's Maddy and Rhydian?" Shannon asked.
Before tin could even answer, the door was swung open, revealing the missing pair.
"Hi guys." Maddy greeted and walked inside.
"Ooh what's in the oven?" Rhydian asked, not even bothering to to say hello.
"Cupcakes." Shannon replied.
"When do they get done? They smell amazing." Maddy spoke.
"I just put them in, so about a half an hour." Shannon replied.
"Don't you remember what happened in primary school Maddy?" Tom asked, he looked a bit scared at this point.
Maddy rolled her eyes.
"She was nine Tom, let it go." Maddy said, sticking up for the red head.
"How can I? They were terrible!"
"What happened?" Rhydian asked.
So tom began to speak of the tale, causing the two girls to roll their eyes in annoyance.
About an hour later, the cupcakes were out of the oven and covered in frosting.
"The best cupcakes you'll ever eat are done!" Shannon yelled from the kitchen.
The first one to come in was Rhydian. He took one said a thank you and went back into he living room. Maddy came in, and then the last to show his face was Tom.
He looked frightened to say the least. It was as if he was gonna get food poisoning from the thing.
"Jeez tom, just eat it." Shannon said annoyed.
"But they could-" tom was cut off by the dessert entering his open mouth.
Which was due to his read headed friend shoving it in there. It was silent as Tom chewed on it. When he finally swallowed, Shannon spoke.
"Well... How was it?" She had asked.
"It was amazing." Tom said.
Shannon smirked, knowing she proved him wrong.
"Told you so." She said, then wiped some stray frosting off of his cheek.
"Do not doubt me Tom Okanawe." Shannon demanded, licking the frosting.
She grabbed a cupcake for herself, and walked into the living room where Rhydian and Maddy were, leaving Tom standing there, dumbfounded.
