❝Cookies bring people together❞

.•*•.

Gulping as I stand there petrified I quickly collect myself to avoid any further embarrassment which has no worked so well because I think he saw me naked and I almost saw him completely naked and I'm freaking out over here. "Do you want cookies? I'm going to make cookies" I ask him, saying the first thing that came to mind. Sebastian only chuckles as he walks over to me. My body is frozen to the spot and does not want to move nor do I want to. I'm so confused and weird at the same time that I have no idea what is even happening to me. 8

I look up at his face to study him. His emerald green eyes show me only desire and lust but there is another emotion in there that I can't be sure of what is nor do I know if I want to know. We stand there, studying each other and it comes to me that we have done this so many times. It always ends up in kissing and one of us ending it. A part of me wants that to happen but a part of me doesn't. My feelings are confused and I'm not sure that he's even helping at the moment.

As soon as my body can move at all I back away, leaving him standing there and even when my heart begs me to turn back around and kiss him, I refuse. I can't allow him to confuse me anymore. I'm going to make some cookies and forget that this ever happened, or I'm going to try to at least and I'm hoping that he will stay out of my way so that I can be able to get my thoughts straight for as of now I'm not even sure of myself anymore.

He doesn't say anything as I enter into the kitchen, perhaps it was some part of me that wanted him to follow me or call out to me but when I hear the door close I figure that he just left me, but then again that isn't news to me. Letting out a breath that I did not know I was holding I gather my thoughts and think of the first cookie recipe that I know of and then I get all the ingredients. Remembering how my siblings and I used to bake. 1

We bonded over it and when I think that we did it because of the baked goods, I know that we also did it to be together and be there for each other because we loved each other. Tears form in my eyes as I think of my siblings and how much I miss them and want to be with them right now. Wiping my tears I was my hands and start baking. Getting lost and just letting myself think of things that I've needed to figure out for a while now, mainly Sebastian and everything around him.

"Do I smell cookies?" I hear behind me and I let out a giggle when I turn around and see Colt standing there with a goofy smile on his face. I've just taken the cookies out of the oven and my mind feels clear and even when I've not had much time, I've managed to think of everything and now I know what I must do. "Yes, but they're too hot now, you'll burn yourself" I tell him. He walks towards me and the cookies as they are still on the plate, cooling down before I will put them in some container. 31

He chuckles when he sees them. "Chocolate cookies, my favorite. If I didn't know better I'd say you were trying to impress me" He says and raises an eyebrow at me and I let out a laugh. "What? I'm not, I've just been in a baking mood and I needed something to remind me of home. My real home or my old home as we can call it now" I tell him as I back against the counter and he stands beside me, though even when I wanted him he takes a cookie and eats it.

Rolling my eyes I let out a sigh. "Sometimes we just need that one thing to bring us peace. For me, it's being thousands of feet up in the air" He tells me with his mouth of full of the cookie that he ate. Sometimes he can be a real child but he is a good listener, that I can't deny because he did listen to my story. "Yeah, I suppose we do. Though, I would not call being high up in the air peace for me" I tell him with a soft smile on my face. I turn around to face the cookies as I take one.

It's hot to the touch but that doesn't matter to me as I take a bite out of it with a smile. They don't taste as good as my siblings and I used to make them but I think they just need their love. "No, but you do want Sebastian" He then says and I look at him straight into the eyes, and all I see his seriousness. My confused look stares at him. "I've not been here for long but I can tell that there is tension between you and he might he a jerk but I think you should go for it" He says.

I don't understand. I thought Colt wanted to take me away from here and now he's telling me to 'go for it'. This doesn't make any sense to me. I also thought he was leaving, I guess things changed in such a short time for no reason. "I... how? How can I love a man that I don't even know?" I ask and just when I thought that my feelings were clear and my thoughts had been figured out, this storm comes. "I'll show you but you have to trust me" He says as I look up at Colt and nod my head. Before I even knew what was happening Colt pulls me close to him and captures my lips into a kiss.
