snuck in her window.

glanced over at the window when she heard the noise, half expecting it to be Gilbert she had reached for a pan and poised to hit him.

hummed as he walked into the kitchen. "What smells good?"

frowned a bit as she stared at him, well that wasn't Gil... "Hmm... toffee right now."

smiles. "Oh? When'll it be done?"

shrugs, "about ten minutes. I've got chocolate cake, double chocolate cake, black forest cake, strawberry short cake, five different kinds

of cheese cake, brownies, marsh mellow brownies, ten different kinds of cookies..."

... slowly smiles. "So I'll be sleepin' where?" He had every intention of eating some of everything.

laughs at that, "oh goodness, sleep on the couch if you want as long as you eat enough sweets to clean out most of my fridge."

smiles. "I can totally do that. I love sweets."

nods as she motioned towards her pantry and fridge. "Help yourself hun. How are you doing anyway? How's that cutie of yours doing?"

instantly goes to grab all the sweets he can. "I'm doin' great. And my cutie is as cute as ever~" He hummed as he scavenged.

laughed lightly as she checked on the toffee before she made some coffee. "That's good to hear, you should bring some sweets home for him."

nods. "I probably will." He started on some of the cakes. "He likes sweets too..."

smiled over at him, "good." She leaned back against the counter humming softly, "baking helps me forget things, so take all you like."

stuffed his face. "What're ye tryin' to forget?"

sighed softly at that and shook her head again, "someone I think." She nodded as she grabbed a cookie and nibbled on it.

raised his brow. "Oh? Who?"

shook her head as she tisked. "I've forgotten who. That's the whole point." She hadn't but she didn't want to tell him. She smiled as she

poured two cups of coffee and handed him one, getting out the cream and sugar.

hummed, having a feeling she still knew. "S'lucky ye can forget."

nodded, "when you have to do it often enough hun, you get used to it." She shrugged as she set the cream and sugar out for him.

pour some cream in his coffee, and lots of sugar. "Eh, I've never been able to forget anythin'."

looked a bit surprised as she watched him."Oh?" She tilted her head a bit and smiled. "That's not good."

shakes his head. "Nej. But I've learned to live with it." He smiled as he ate more sweets.

smiled now and nodded, "I think that's all we ever really can do."

nods. "It's what humans do. Or they just forget. Either or."

took a sip of her coffee as she nodded. "This is true."

finished his first round of treats. "So, how're ye and Austria? Seen him lately?"

blinks at that, "we're fine. He's still seeing Gilbert so I don't see him as often as I would like to."

shrugs. "Ye could always just chill at his house and wait. Or spy on them. Get some good pictures.

shakes her head, "nah. I've done enough of that."

blinks. "Ye mean ye can actually get tired of that stuff?"
