Christmas Valentine
The sounds of the two mixers going at full speed throughout the apartment was barely masked by that of a whisk clicking against the side of a bowl as the icing that Alec was trying to make was refusing to thicken up to the right consistency, no matter how much elbow grease he gave it.
Just as he was about to give up with the icing and put the cake batter into the tins he heard the creak of the door to the other bedroom in the apartment, causing him to look up and see Isabelle rubbing her eyes against the glare from the lighting under the top cupboard units.
“Alec, what the hell. It’s nearly 4am! Have you got any sleep at all?” Isabelle huffed as she walked to the counter and leaned against it as she watched him grab the right tins from the cupboard.
“Not really. I was thinking about the Garroways wedding cake and how I should at least do a mock up so I know what I’m doing.” Alec sighed, picking up the roll of baking paper from under his recipe book and lining the four tins.
“That’s not for at least a month.” Isabelle said, rolling her eyes as she turned off the mixer nearest to her at the same time as Alec detached the bowl from the one nearest him.
