Author's Note: I'm sorry the last chapter wasn't very good. Hopefully this one will be better.
(Thorne's POV)
"Cress, I'm home!" said Carswell Thorne as he walked into their house. "I'm in here!" yelled Cress from the living room. "Thorne," she said "There isn't anything to do, and there are more than two months until the babies are born."
"Maybe you could get Cinder to let you babysit Peony" he said. Cress glared at him. "Thorne," she said "Cinder and Kai are on Luna right now. They'll be in the Commonwealth next month. We are in England. On Earth. Don't you think that's a little far?"
"Well, we could always watch a movie" said Thorne, smiling at Cress. "No." she said. "I already watched about fifty this week. Let's play a game. The game is called Food Network. You have to bake something for me, and I will grade it on a scale of one to ten. You have twenty minutes." said Cress, setting her portscreen timer. After all, Cress had always been really hungry ever since she became pregnant.
Thorne ran into the the kitchen. She could hear pots and pans banging around. "You have ten minutes left" she called. Cress checked her timer again. Five minutes. Four minutes. Three minutes. Two minutes. One minute. Done!
"Thorne, your time is up" she yelled. Thorne came into the living room carrying something in a bowl. "Thorne, what is that?" she asked, raising an eyebrow. "Um, I call it Cereal a la Thorne."he said. Cress looked in the bowl. There was cereal with milk , and a piece of lettuce stuck on the side of the bowl.
"Um Thorne, why is there a piece of lettuce on the side of the bowl?" asked Cress. "It's a garnish." he said. Cress took a bite of cereal. "Okay, Thorne. You get a nine." Cress started giggling.
"What's so funny?" asked Thorne. "You used lettuce as a garnish on cereal." she said laughing so hard she could barely talk. Then Thorne grinned, and they both collapsed on the floor laughing.
Author's Note: I got the idea for this because I was watching the food network, and sometimes I play this game with my sister. Please review!
