+ Description: The Cooking Club wants to hold a big bake sale to help fund raise some of the many clubs' activities but they're lacking in numbers. They're never going to make enough pastries and goodies with so few helping hands, especially with the ones they do make disappearing so suddenly. They have no idea where their baked goods are going but they keep making new ones only to have them stolen. In a last attempt at having their bake sale the members of the cooking club have been going around trying to get volunteers to help them bake a big batch of snacks so they can hold their bake sale.

Felicity was. Well, she was excited! After being approached by the cooking club who seemed to be in a bit of a pickle due to the mysterious disappearance of their baked goods, Felicity was now in the midst of getting herself prepared to whip up the most vast variety of sweets she'd ever attempted in a short amount of time. It was for a good cause, after all! Pulling out her phone as she hauled a nested set of mixing bowls up onto the dormitories community kitchen bench, she tapped away at the screen and hit send; better invite Felix, she was sure he'd love to help! Placing the device on the bench, she continued pulling out pans and utensils that would be needed for her endeavors.

Every few moments, she'd glance at her phone, silently urging Felix to respond. She wanted to get started, but she didn't want to start without him if he wanted to help. These things were always best done from start to finish with all parties involved, and she wouldn't say no to spending a little more time with him. Things had been so hectic lately, she'd hardly had the time to leave her dorm room, let alone see people.

The blond let out a soft sigh, tapping the end of a spoon on the bench as she did so, thinking about the variety of recipes she'd need to recall from the back of her memory. It only took her a moment to decide that that was too much of a risk, considering the cooking club intended to sell the result-- but it was best not to think about that until later. Scooping up her phone, still holding onto the spoon, she quickly dashed up the stairs to the dorm rooms, ducking into her own to find the dusty old cookbook she'd been filling with her mother since she was a child. She couldn't take too long, or someone might come by and get annoyed at the mess she'd left.

    As soon as Felix had received the text from Felicity, he had already jumped off the tree he was relaxing on outside by the library and started to make his way to the academy dorms. He never really liked technology but he found himself excited to get any messages on the thing. Even though half of the messages were stupid 'snapchats' from Katsumi; Felix found it hard to believe that somebody like him was obsessed with something like that but then again, the brunette had liked it just as much. The only thing he has a hard time doing is responding, he rather just run over to meet them and talk to people in person or call them, despite all the social anxiety he has.

    So here he was, at the kitchen like she had told him. It was only then that he noticed his laboured breathing; the brunette must of started running without really noticing. He looked back at the message on his cellphone again to catch his breath, pocketed the thing and opened up the kitchen door slowly, "F-Fliss?" accidentally stuttering from his lack of air he peaked his head in and then walked in calmly... but Felicity wasn't there. Out of instinct, Felix looked around the room and under tables before giving up and leaning on one of the work benches, 'Did she go back to the dorm...?' A bunch of stuff was out so he didn't think he was stood up.

    Felix, as quick as he possibly could, sent a text to the blonde he knew rather well, 'Im at the kitchen..where are u?'

Finally locating the raggedy book, she slid it from it's place on her bookshelf-- who would have thought it'd actually be where it was supposed to be? The notification alerted her, the blond pulling her phone from her pocket; ah, Felix was already downstairs! Quickly stuffing the device back in her pocket she exited her room and hurried back down to the kitchen, almost tripping over her own feet at the bottom of the stairs.

"Felix--!" She greeted, steadying herself and walking over to the bench, placing the book on the surface with a smile. "Sorry-- I had to find this." She apologised, tapping the cover of the book with her hand. "I hope you weren't waiting too long."

Felicity moved around the kitchen island and started moving things around, making space on the bench so they could actually prepare the batters.

"So I was thinking we could make caramel mousse profiteroles-- and some double chocolate cookies? There's also these really yummy peaches and cream muffins I was wanting to try." Straight into it, there was no hesitation on her part to dive right in to talking about the baking. She was so excited, and to have her best friend here to cook with was just the icing on the cake.

"What do you think?"

[Felix]

    As Felix waited he was finally able to catch his breath a little, making it seem like he hadn't ran there in the first place. He played around with the bowls a bit before seeing his friend finally enter the room, "Hey Fliss!" He waved at her pleasantly, "It's fine, It was only like five or ten minutes." He reassured her with a light tone, really meaning what he said. Felix had helped with some of the set up even though he didn't really know if he was helping or not.

    If Felix had to be honest with her, he didn't really know what a profitaro...profitarole.. or whatever, even was in the first place. Though, even being lost, it all sounded delicious and her excitement flooded into him easily, "I think that sounds awesome! Just tell me what you think I can help with and I'll do the best I can!" With determination he pulled up his sleeves quickly and rubbed his hands together to emphasise he was ready for direction.

    Felix was so happy to be useful and with Felicity he felt like he could actually bake something cool!
