Malte(a)sers
"Two cups of sugar," you read off the package. You were making Malteser (or Malteaser idek) cookies for a friend get together.
You analyze the instructions on the packet for further details. After reading, you reach out your hand towards the Mateasers bag, when you notice it's flat.
"Dan," you call out to his office.
"Yes?" he shouted back.
"Did you eat those Malteasers I bought yesturday?"
Silence.
"No," he finally said.
You nod to yourself that you'll have to go without the candy.
"Why?" he blurts out.
"I was going to use them in my cookies," you reply.
You hear footsteps come towards the kitchen. He notices you baking.
"Sorry, I didn't know," he said blushing. You smile.
"It's fine."
"No it's not," he mumbles to himself. "I'll go get you some."
He grabs his keys and heads to the door.
"Dan! No, no, no, it's alright," you say quickly placing down the mixing bowl. He stops and looks back at you.
"Are you sure?" he asks sheepishly.
You nod. "I'm sure."
He sighs and throws his keys on the couch.
"I'll write a note next time," you say laughing. He shrugs and goes back to his office.
Continuing your baking, you dollop uneven circles onto the baking paper. They look pretty good considering your past incident baking. (hint hint)
Slowly sliding the tray into the oven, you set the clock timer for about 20 minutes. As you wait, you need to get ready.

"Dan, I think Phil is at the door," you say fixing your earring. You see him dart past your bedroom to the door. The cookies turned out great...apart from a few burnt ones. You've gotta start somewhere, right? Right...?
"Daniel!" you hear Phil's cheery voice from the living room. Louise, Carrie, and PJ are supposed to be here any minute. You make sure everything look great and head to the living room.
"Y/N! Glad to see you again!" Phil greets you.
"Yeah I know! We haven't seen each other since PlayList!" you say smiling. After sitting down and catching up, another knock comes from the door.
"I've got it!" you say hopping up from your seat. Opening the door, you see PJ with a bag of your favorite chips.
"You know me so well," you say rolling your eyes.
"I know. I remembered from the party," he said smiling. PJ is always trying to hit on you, but you always have to tell him you have Dan. (HINT HINT)
Once everyone arrived, you offer everyone cookies.
"They were supposed to have Malteasers, but someone ate them all," you explain, giving Dan a playful look. He laughs nervously, blushing.
"These are amazing," Louise says after finishing hers. You thank her looking over at Dan. Oh well. What are you gonna do.
