Sam looked at him from where she stood with her hands on her hips and a small amused smile on her face. "No," she laughed. "No you need food in you know." At his comment, she rolled her eyes. "You say that to everyone." Turning away she began to make her way towards the kitchen she knew almost as well as she knew her own. Calling over her shoulder, she added. "And I'm making these because I'm also hungry not because you said you missed me."

It was a lie, as much as she wanted to say that she was over Battle, her foolish little heart still loved him. Pieces of her heart still belonged to him and she would continue to take care of him when no one else did because that was just who she was. As she began to take things out of the fridge to make their omelettes she also found some ham. Giving it a sniff to make sure that it was still fresh and okay to eat she called out. "There's also some ham. Want me to mix some in in your omelet?"

Finding the pan and turning the burners on as she began to whisk the eggs in a bowl, her curiosity got the best of her. "So how did you end up like this? A date or a party?"

he tried to hide the grin that spread across his lips as she finally agreed. he didn't want to fuck it up, to send her flying out the door with a slam like she had so many times before. "i'm not sure, you can look around." he shrugged, indicating to the kitchen he barely used - battle was by no means a cook. "i could also uber eats us anything your heart desires! it's not problem." he nodded, moving to flop back on the couch because for some reason the floor was starting to move under him.

pausing, he peaked back up. "if i have eggs and cheese you do make the best omelets." he admitted with a cheeky smile. and it was true, sam had a magic to her, everything she made or touched was instantly better, battle included. "i've missed them." @4fter-hours

I hope the universe blesses you with a moment of peace this week. You’re doing the right thing, and you’re going to be okay.
