Matt's car glided through the moonlit streets of Los Angeles as he headed toward Y/N's apartment after dropping off his brothers at Tara Yummy's 1 million celebration party. The radio played the playlist created by him and Y/N, which they constantly fed with new songs that reminded themselves of each other.

Matt smiled as he looked to the little surprise he had prepared for his girlfriend. He made a brief stop at a flower shop on the way, where he bought a simple bouquet of pink tulips - Y/N's favorite. His eyes momentarily found the bouquet carefully wrapped and placed on the passenger seat before returning his gaze to the road.

Upon arriving at the building where Y/N lived, his access to the parking lot was quickly granted, the doorman already knowing him very well. The boy didn't take long to take the bouquet in hand, locking the doors and taking the elevator to the corresponding floor.

The sound of the keys against the front door lock sounded faintly through the living room, followed by the sound of the door opening and closing seconds later, Matt quickly taking off his shoes and resting them against the wall.

"Baby?" His voice echoed through the walls, expanding to the nearest rooms, while his eyes quickly surrounded the space, searching for the girl.

"Kitchen!" Y/N shouted back, an involuntary smile growing on her face almost automatically, her body reacting to Matt's presence.

Matt made his way to the kitchen and found Y/N with her back to him, focused on the counter as she moved her arms over the ceramics. With a smile on his face, he approached her silently and hugged her from behind, wrapping his arms around her waist and resting his hands on her stomach covered by her hoodie and little green apron.

"Hi, pretty boy." Y/N murmured softly, rubbing her hands together to shake off the flour before wrapping her arms around his, caressing the hoodie-covered skin. "I thought you were going to Tara's party."

"Without my girl? Never." He responded in a low tone against her neck, laying his head on her right shoulder so that his face was facing her neck and sealing her jaw gently. "I brought you something." Matt pulled away slightly and retrieved the bouquet he had rested on the table.

Y/N turned to him with eyes full of curiosity and confusion, which soon turned into pure ecstasy, her heart overflowing with love.

"Oh my... Matt, they're beautiful!" The girl beamed, accepting the bouquet and cradling it in her arms as if it was a newborn.

"I always bring you flowers, I don't know how you still react so surprised." Matt murmured jokingly, smiling as he watched her enjoy the little gift.

As Y/N carefully arranged the tulips in a new ceramic vase, Matt approached the oven to peek at what she was preparing. The delicious aroma of freshly baked cookies filled the air, making his stomach growl with anticipation.

"Did you make cookies?" The boy asked excitedly.

"Yes! I was baking it to take it to you tomorrow." Y/N nodded quickly, returning to her starting position. "Do you want some, hon?"

"Yes, please."

Matt watched in awe as Y/N bent slightly, opening the stove door and carefully taking out the baking tray with her hand covered in the soft yellow fabric glove, resting it on the counter.

He knew he was lucky to have someone so incredible in his life, someone who cared about making every moment special.

The girl rose to her tiptoes after closing the oven, opening the cabinet above the stove and retrieving two dessert plates designed with little strawberries. She placed them side by side next to the tray before taking a small spatula and moving two cookies to each plate carefully, afraid of breaking or dropping them.

Matt walked over, taking one of the cookies from the tray with the tip of his fingertips, ignoring the slight burn from the high temperature. He lifted his own hand, blowing on the sweet before biting off a piece, closing his eyes automatically and letting out a sigh of pleasure through his nose. The way the cookie was still warm made it melt in his mouth, the chocolate exploding against his tongue, multiplying the variety of flavors.

"Is it good?" Y/N giggled, watching him with a smile gracing her face, receiving a quick nod with wide blue eyes. "Come on, baby."

She took the plates in her hands delicately, leaving her kitchen and walking to the balcony with Matt following close behind as he licked his fingers, removing all the chocolate residue.

The night was cool and clear, with the sky dotted with twinkling stars. The couple snuggled into the cushioned chairs that decorated the small space, Matt quickly reaching for the pink blanket that was folded on the small table on the right corner, opening it and throwing it over his and his girlfriend's legs, protecting them against the light breeze.

"Oh! Matt, remember the dog constellation I was telling you about the other day?" Y/N's excited voice cut through the comfortable silence, her eyes lighting up just like the stars above them.

"Sirios? No, wait, Sirius... Right?" Matt frowned, a cute look of confusion spreading across his face as his eyes darted from Y/N to the sky and back again.

"Exactly! Sirius, the brightest star in the night sky. Right there." The girl raised her arm that wasn't holding her plate, pointing her index finger upwards.

Matt looked in the indicated direction, navigating through the stars for a few seconds until he found it.

"Wait, it's actually beautiful. What else do you know about it?"

Y/N smiled truthful, her heart warming at being able to talk more about something she loved so much, without having restrictions or feeling ashamed for her excitement.

"Well, Sirius is a binary star, which means it is actually two stars orbiting around each other. It is part of the constellation Canis Major, the Greater Dog, and is known as 'The Dog Stars'. Oh, oh! Do you remember Sirius Black? My favorite Harry Potter character? So, this star..."

Matt listened intently, slowly chewing the small cookie pieces while keeping his eyes fixed on Y/N. Her passion for astronomy and the universe always fascinated him, and there wasn't a time when she brought up the subject that he wasn't willing to give her his full attention.

As the night progressed, Matt and Y/N continued to stargaze, lost in conversations about the cosmos and its mysteries.

As the last cookie crumbs disappeared from the plates and the sky began to brighten with the sun that appeared over the horizon, Y/N felt a wave of comfort and contentment envelop her body, resting the ceramics on the corner table and moving gently towards Matt, settling on his lap.

The boy opened a big, involuntary smile, automatically wrapping her with his arms and the pink blanket, protecting them from the slight cold of dawn, while she laid her head on his chest, feeling the peaceful rhythm of his heartbeat and serene breathing.

Together, they kept their eyes fixed on the sky that was beginning to take on color, the sound of the first cars on the street, and the laughter of children going to school filling their ears.

Little by little, Y/N began to feel the effects of exhaustion after staying up all night, her body relaxing against Matt's comforting warmth. Sleep came like a gentle wave, enveloping her senses in an embrace.

Her breathing became slow and regular, while her body became limp and light. Her brain shutting down and giving in to deep sleep, to the point where she didn't hear the little whisper of "good night, petal" from her boyfriend, let alone his arms carrying her to her bed, where they finally slept in each other's arms.

Baking Memories

Just a little ficlet for the @tarlosweeklyprompts advent calendar. I’m a couple days late, this was for the 16th, Baking Holiday Cookies Together. @noxsoulmate, thank you for the beta! 😘

“Stop!” Carlos hisses. TK playfully rolls his eyes but makes his way to the sink to wash his hands instead of licking the cookie dough off his fingers. “I can’t tell her not to eat the dough if you’re gonna do it right in front of her.”

They both watch as she reaches into the mixing bowl and scoops out some dough and pops it into her mouth. Carlos gives TK a look as he swoops in.

“You can’t eat the raw dough, Princess,” Carlos says. “Come wash your hands and I’ll get you one off the rack.” She meets TK at the sink, and side-by-side, they wash their hands.

“Cookie, please!” she demands. When Carlos hands her one off the cooling rack, her eyes light up when she sees it’s one of the gingerbread cookies she decorated. “Why did we make so many cookies, anyway?” she asks, biting the head off the cookie.

“We are going to a party tonight,” TK says. He picks Mari up and settles her on his hip while they watch Carlos fill two large trays with cookies. “We are taking those cookies to Aunt Grace and Uncle Judd’s.”

“All of them?”

“No,” TK says. “But we’re going to take a few dozen.”

“Is everyone bringing cookies?” she asks. She finishes her cookie and TK is quick to grab a napkin and wipe her hands before she can smear frosting on either of their shirts.

“Yes, everyone is bringing cookies. Some people are going to take our cookies home, and we’ll bring home different ones.”

“Peanut butter ones?”

“Maybe. But if no one brings peanut butter ones, I bet your dad will make some with you, okay?”

“Okay.” Mari kicks to be let down, and TK sets her on the counter right next to the mixing bowl. “Can I have another?”

“Not right now,” TK pulls a few more ingredients out of the cabinet. “We have one more batch to make.”

“Are we taking these?”

“No,” TK says. “These are just for us.” His voice cracks a little, and Carlos pauses behind him, pressing a hand to the small of his back.

“You going to be okay?” Carlos whispers. “You don’t have to make these today.”

“Yeah. Yeah, I’m good.” TK swallows hard and turns to his daughter. “I used to make these with my mom,” he explains. “And now, it’s time for me to teach you how to make them. And when you’re older, you get to teach someone very special how to make them.”

“But what if I don’t remember?”

Carlos laughs. “That’s what recipes are for, silly girl.” He reaches into TK’s back pocket and pulls out an old, faded recipe card, in a plastic sleeve, written in Gwyn’s precise handwriting. “You hold onto this, Princess.” Carlos presses a kiss to the top of her head and one to TK’s cheek. “I’m gonna go wrap a couple more presents while you two finish these up, okay?”

“Stay. Please,” TK says. “It’s a family recipe, and you should be here to help.” He reaches for Carlos’ hand, and Carlos squeezes it.

“Alright! Let’s get started.”

TK knows how to make the cookies by heart, but he waits, adding ingredients one by one, as Carlos patiently teaches Mari how to read the recipe. He measures the important ones and cracks the eggs himself to ensure the cookies will come out properly, but when it comes to the extras, he gives Carlos and Mari free reign.

Mari laughs as she dumps in tons of chocolate chips and only a little coconut. Carlos swipes the bag and sprinkles in a little more. Carlos and Mari each add a handful of candied pecans, walnuts, and pretzel pieces, but save the toffee, TK’s favorite, for him to add.

The three of them roll messy balls of dough onto the baking sheets and TK places them into the preheated oven and sets the timer.

Mari loses interest in waiting and disappears into the living room, but TK distracts himself by helping Carlos clean up the kitchen and by the time the timer dings, the kitchen is clean, with the exception of dishes in the sink.

TK loads the dishwasher while Carlos pulls the pans out and sets the cookies on the cooling rack. When TK deems them cool enough, he takes the cookies while Carlos grabs the napkins, and they join Mari on the sofa.

“Are they good?” Mari asks.

“Try it and find out,” TK says. He watches while Mari takes a bite and her eyes light up.

“They’re so good!” she exclaims.

“They’re the best cookies in the world,” TK agrees.

euguuguegh. brothers...

[unforgivablenope]

Ladies and gentlemen..

I present you, our Emerald Marine Chocolate Mint Tart!!

I gotta say, for our first try, this isn't bad. It may not look pretty but I had a lot of fun making this with my brother and learned a lot that I plan to make more jello tarts in the future.

When my brother showed me this video. I nearly drop my drink. LoL! I didn't expect him to find Chocolate Cacao channel. Normally, I'm the one showing him these kinds of videos.

If your curious on how to make one yourself, here's the video.

Be warned that the most difficult piece to make is the tart. The moment the dough warms up, it starts sticking to everything and you will have to refrigerate it again for an hour to start over. You must have patience when making this. It took us most of our day to finish the tart.

Oh, and before I forget, when stretching out the dough, use powdered sugar! Too much flour will make the dough stiff and crumbly. And, switch out agar with unflavored gelatin powder (I used Kraft) so you can see the design of your tart. Using agar makes the jello cloudy.

This tart turned out to be super minty (husband said the flavor reminds him of toothpaste?). If you're not a fan of strong flavor. You will have to cut the mojito mint syrup in half or put in more water to dilute the flavor.

So, yeah, anyone who tries this. Tag me and show me yours! I would love to see how yours turn out! =D

Hope you all have a great day!
