He hummed softly a light blush on his cheeks as tolly kissed him. "yep, Mom sent some of this over last night so I thought it would be a good idea to use it today. whatcha looking for love?"he asked, glancing over as he stirred the chocolate

"Nothing I haven't already found." He set out the plates and silverware on the table, taking the pan of eggs over so he could distribute the food while Cas worked on drinks. "How many glasses of that do I get? It looks absolutely delicious."

He chuckled softly "One for now, dear. Maybe a bit more depending on what I need for later." he glanced over his shoulder and smiled "thank you, love. You can start eating if you want, this should be done fairly soon." he lowered the temperature once the drink started bubbling over and took the pot off the stove to cool for a bit, watching at the mixture turned a deep brown and the consistency thickened

Tolly shook his head, setting everything down so he could hug Cas from behind and tuck his head on his shoulder with a soft smile. "Nah, I'll wait." He pressed a kiss to Cas's jaw, the closest thing he could reach. "No point in eating when I can't eat with you. Especially since I'd be waiting on that cocoa anyways."

Cas hummed softly and leaned into Tolly's embrace as he stirred the hot chocolate, making sure that nothing was stuck to the bottom. He tilted his head slightly towards Tolly as he kissed him, ceasing his stirring when he was distracted. "It's almost done, pretty one. Mind grabbing the chili peppers and cinnamon from the cabinet while I pour these out?"

Tolly hugged him close, trailing the kisses down Cas' neck lightly as he tilted his head. He was busy sucking a mark into the crook of Cas' neck when he was asked to leave and his boyfriend could probably feel the pout already. He pulled away after a few seconds, after he'd made sure the mark was dark enough that it would stick around for a while. "Yeah, yeah, I will. Why do we need chili peppers?"

He gasped softy as tolly kissed him, reaching up as running his hand through Tolly's hair and nudging his nose against his cheek. he glanced down at the mark and shook his head with a smile "that's not going anywhere, and I have class. Thank you love." he sighed and pressed a kiss to Tolly's lips "the chili enhances the chocolate flavor, it actually tastes really good."

Tolly laughed and kissed him back, a smirk already starting to form on his lips as he looked at the mark. "Kind of the point, babe. You can cover it with concealer if you want to hide it." He pulled away with one last peck for Cas, rummaging around the cabinets in search of the cinnamon and peppers. "Well I'm not putting peppers in my cocoa but you can do whatever you like."

"hm, I think I'll keep it uncovered for now." he poured the hot chocolate into the mugs and brought them over to the couch along with some spoons. "please? it takes really god. it's not even that spicy." he wrapped Tolly in his arms and pressed a kiss to the base of his neck. "Fine, I guess you don't have to but it really does make a difference." he pulled away and curled up on the couch with the plate of food in his lap and the drink in his hands, idly stirring the chocolate until it cooled down a bit

Tolly gave him a grin when he said he'd leave the mark uncovered and bounded over to the couched with his goodies in hand. He shook his head as Cas tried to persuade him, wrinkling up his nose playfully. "Nah ah, no way. I hate spicy food, even if it's not that bad I still can't stand it." He dusted his own cocoa with cinnamon and flopped down on the couch next to Cas, taking a si once he was cozy and settled. It tasted amazing. "This is great, babe! When'd you learn to cook this kinda stuff?"

Cas leaned against him and shook some cinnamon and ground chili pepper powder on top of his chocolate, stirring it around a bit and taking a sip. "mom taught me since she's the one who loves to cook. She had me baking bread and making all sorts of things at a young age. I don't do any of the long term recipes anymore since I got into college but I try to do some of the shorter ones on weekends." he said, taking a bite of the food with a small hum

Tolly laughed, taking a long sip of his own cocoa. It was the perfect temperature– hot enough to feel warm and cozy but not so hot it burnt his tongue. "I should get the recipe for my brother, he loves cooking. Taught me everything I know about it, even though I'm not half as good in the kitchen as he is." He laughed, leaning his head on Cas' shoulder. "We used to make handpies and fry them up with our mama when dad wasn't home."

Cas nudged into him and smiled softly “really? What kind were they?” He asked, finishing off the eggs and moving on to the sandwhich, offering Tolly the other half as they talked “I can find the resile for anything you might want. Mom gave me a copy of all the recipes she collected over the years in case I forgot anything.”

Tolly took the offered food with a smile, munching on the sandwich while he tried to remember. "Well they were usually fruit. We had these big fields of blackberries out behind our house and mama and I would pick them while Illy made us the dough." He smiled fondly. "They were always really delicious. And… it'd be really cool if I could take a look at your recipe book. I'm not the best cook but I like trying new things and I'm sure she's got some really fun stuff in there."

“You has a blackberry field in your backyard?! Lucky! Me and mom would always beg dad to drive smiles for these blackberries that were sold at a market whenever it came to town.” Cas laughed at the memory “poor dad came home tired from work and mom would always sweet talk him to going back out to get the berries, only for them to be gone in a few days.” He took a bite of the sandwich and set it down, leaving the couch for a moment and going to his room. He rummaged around a bit before coming back with a large box full of different sized cards. “Go ahead, there’s everything in there from desert pastries to lobster bisque”

Tolly laughed, resting his head on Cas's shoulder. He could listen to Cas talk forever. "Too bad for you, I guess. I loved the house we grew up in. We lived in this really nice little private neighborhood and there was a river that trailed out behind our house and Demyan—our oldest brother— built a treehouse with our dad when he was a kid and there were berry patches all around…" He trailed off with a happy sigh, pouting at Cas' retreating back. He perked right up again when he came back with the little box, excitedly picking through the little recipe cards. "Oh Illy would love this! Can I take some pictures?"

Cas nodded, and sat down beside him again, taking a few bites of the sandwich. “Go right ahead, mom never worried much about people taking the recipes. She really just wanted to share them with people.” He explained, curling up on the couch and looking over at the box, pointing out his favorite recipes, most of them sweets.

Tolly beamed and pecked him on the cheek before he started carding through, snapping photos of whatever recipes for baked goods he could find. He made sure to get all of Cas' favorites too, figuring that he could try his hand at them later to surprise his boyfriend. "Alright! First of all thanks and second of all, I had no idea you had such a sweet tooth! I should get you to bake with me sometime."

“No problem! I’m glad you have such an interest in them” Cas smiled sweetly and nudged into tolly’s affection “yeah, mom and dad call it a problem I call it an addiction. I’d love to bake with you some day. Maybe next holiday when both the shop and schools out?” He asked, checking the calendar on his phone

Tolly peeked over at the screen. "Yeah, looks like we have a long weekend here." He pointed towards the three blank days. "Maybe we can do it then. If you're half as good at baking as you are at making cocoa we're gonna be golden, and it'll only take half a day at most."

Cas nodded and marked the days as “baking day” on his phone, just to remind him.
“I’m not the best but I think I know the basics pretty well. Half a day should be good unless you want to tackle a larger project? And that’s if we don’t get distracted In between.” He gave Tolly a teasing look and pressed a kiss to his cheek

Tolly grinned and gave him a sweet kiss in return, pulling Cas in close. He made him so happy. Even just looking at the little blue notification for baking day sent butterflies fluttering through his stomach. "Well I can't promise that I won't get distracted, but since we do have three days I think tackling something big is just what the doctor ordered. Have you ever made bread before?"

Cas kissed Tolly back with a smile, his hand reaching up to cup his cheek gentlyand to pull him close. He pulled away slightly and nodded "We made quick breads before which were pretty good and I think we've made dinner rols but we've never made a large loaf before. Do you have one in mind that we could make?"

"Mhmm." Tolly leaned into his hand with a soft smile, pecking him on the lips once Cas had him in nice and close. His smile was soft. He was looking up at Cas through his eyelashes. "I've got a starter for a good sourdough, and bread takes all day but you only have to check in on it every so often. That means we can cook other things in between."

"Sounds great, love. That'll definitely be on the list to make." He pecked his lips one final time before standing and putting the empty dishes in the sink. After washing them, he found his backpack and neatly put all his notebooks and laptop inside. "ready to go?" he asked, glancing up from sorting through the things he'd bring to the shop.

Tolly's laptop was still over at his house, along with a nice clean pair of clothes and a toothbrush he could use without feeling guilty, so he hopped up with a nod. "Yep! You've got all the stuff you need, right? I'm gonna have to jet over to my place right after I walk you and I wanna make sure you don't have to go back 'n forth any more than you need."

Cas nodded in reasurance "yeah! Go ahead, I probably won't leave the shop until 11:30 just to be a bit early to my first class so take you're time." He replied, grabbing his keys and phone and pulling open the door, breathing in the morning air with a small smile.

"Alright, then we're off!" He took Cas' hand in his once he'd grabbed everything, walking him out onto the sidewalk It was a beautiful day sunny and warm with the perfect breeze and he reveled in it as they began to wander through the streets. "Gods, I really can't wait 'til the holiday comes. It's a crime to stay inside today."

Cas smiled at Tolly's enthusiasm and infectious excitement. "Neither can I. It's going to be so much fun to bake all day. The room's going smell so good!" he looked around with a smile. "It truly is. It hasn't been this nice for a few weeks now."

Tolly grinned back at him, bright and bubbly and so very touched that Cas was every bit as excited as he was. "Yeah, it really is! And we're gonna have so many baked goods too! We'll eat like kings for months and months, it's going to be amazing."
