Alma smiled and blushed a bit, walking beside Zaire as they headed towoards the door.

"Ooh!" Zaire opened the hoverdoor and they stepped out into the chilly morning air.

"and while you're making bacon and eggs, i'll make pancakes."

Alma planted her feet and attempted to look sturn.
"no, I want it to be a surprise!"

he could sence her attempt, and shrugged. "if you say so."

Alma relaxed and smiled.
"thanks"
She continued to walk towards the cafeteria.

he followed not far behind her, lost in thought. a surprise..?

As they entered the building Alma turned around again.
"Wait here"
She entered the kitchen.

A few moments later.

The clashing of pans could be heard from within.

Zaire almost bolted into the kitchen, but Alma's earlier warning stopped him.

instead, he worridly called,"Alma..?"

"In here, umm you can come in....."
Alma was sitting on the floor, propped up against the counter and rubbing her head. She and the general area was covered in flour, egg, and various other ingredients. Pots littered the floor and the only thing clean was a plate with slightly burnt bacon and partially scrambled eggs.
"Ok, so cookings out"
She smiled and half laughed.

for a blind Zerola...
Zaire could see everything.
he stared, expressionless for a long time, scanning the damage.
then he...he laughed.Zaire laughed for the first time in his life. he laughed so hard he almost cried.

"kyehehehehhh...i-i guess it is..!"

Alma looked at Zaire as he laughed, speechless herself, until she joined in, unable to help herself.
When she finally stopped laughing she got up and brushed as much flour as she could from her jeans and hoodie. She walked over to Zaire, nearly tripping over spill who-knows-what and various sized pots and pans.
"Umm, sorry about that, I ruined breakfast didn't I?"
Her face turned sad as she spoke, and she looked down, truly sorrowful.

in a much better mood than he'd ever thought possible, Zaire smiled slightly and shook his head.

"you didn't. it's alright."

he plucked an eggshell from her hair and stifled a giggle.

"i only feel sorry for Ria. she has to clean this up!"

Alma stifled her own laugh, she had yet to meet Ria, but she felt sorry for her all the same. She turned taking a glance around and sighed.
"Now what? I don't suppose I made anything edible?"

Zaire slipped past Alma and knelt before the pan of bacon. surprsingly, it had stayed upright, and the bacon was saved.

he picked up a small piece,ignoring the hot oil that burnt his wrapped fingers. he bit off a portion of it and chewed.

"actually, this bacon is delicious." Zaire smiled, taking another bite.

Alma watched him and half smiled at the compliment. Her face turned bright red with blush.
"Your just saying that"

he stood up, with the pan in his free hand.
"i'm not, really. try some."
he held out the pan to her,while advising Alma that the bacon was hot.

((good night))
Alma picked up a peice and instantly threw it to her other hand. She transferred like this back and forth until the bacon finally reached her mouth.
"mmmmmm, your right it is good! So I'm not a total failure."

((gnight!))
this action made Zaire giggle a tiny bit. "see, i told you!"

it was too bad the eggs were scattered on the floor. they probably tasted good too.

"yeah, but we can't live off bacon...."
She looked around then notice a loaf of bread behind her. The outer plastic had what looked like ketchup on it but the bread inside was still good. She lifted it up and showed it to Zaire.
"Toast sound good to you? With you here I don't think I could mess it up."

Zaire senced the loaf in her hand and realized nothing else in the kitchen was available.
"bacon and toast..."
he smiled.
"sounds good to me!"
