Hermione Granger walked into her flat and was surprised to find it filled with smoke, and what smelled like burnt feet. Rushing to her small kitchen, she expected to see Crookshanks had knocked something onto the stove and accidently hit the knob.

What she did not expect to see was one Draco Malfoy, her boyfriend, standing at the stove stirring something on the pot. The kitchen was also smoke free, but the smell was ten times worse in here.

"What are you doing?" Asked Hermione as she clamped her nose, and cast an air freshening spell.

"I figured I would surprise you with dinner," answered Draco, as he turned and gave her a smile, "but, it would seem that you're home early! Here, you can help!"

"What are you cooking? Moldy socks and some roadkill?"

"No, home-made lasagna, Blaise gave me the recipe. Here."

As Hermione read off the instructions, she noticed that there was a lot of things wrong with it, including that your supposed to start off with cooking the spaghetti in the oven first.

Hermione hurried and rushed over to turn off the stove, and asked him how much of the recipe he had already finished. When he told her, he was on the last step, making the sauce with soy, tomatoes, and milk. She immediately turned off the burner and noticed the soy sauce on the counter.

"Draco Malfoy, when will you realize that you don't even trust Blaise to cook water, nevertheless for a full-blown recipe! Here, this is all trash," she said as she started dumping what Draco tried making. "Why don't we settle on something a lot easier?"

"Okay."

Hermione went to set out a small meal for the two of them; French fries and pre-patted burgers.

She taught him how to pre-heat the oven on 480°, and put enough fries in the pan for the two of them, she then showed him how to sprinkle some oil and salt on top, and popped them in. Next, she heated up a pan, and slid the two burger patties onto it, giving those a dash of spices.

After she showed him how to flip the burgers, she prepared the buns and toppings, finally adding cheese to the almost cooked burgers.

Plating the food, they went and ate at her small kitchen table. After they ate, Draco broke the small silence that lingered by exclaiming, "Yeah, I think you are going to cook from now on!"

Smiling, she just replied, "No, you will help do the cooking, we'll do it together!"
