Summary: Albus and Shay get together and talk for a bit about their lives and what they want before they go to sleep.
It was a long day of unpacking that led Shay to where she was, sitting in her kitchen with her cat, who was perched on the windowsill in the far corner, as she read over the instructions again, just to be sure she’d done everything right. The last thing she needed was Albus to come over and be too paranoid to eat because something looked wrong, smelled wrong or wasn’t cooked exactly how a pub would do it. Now shaylyn? She wasn’t exactly a brilliant cook; in fact her parents banned her from the kitchen as a young girl for a reason.
So this was a step outside of the box for her. But nothing was turning out that badly, in fact everything looked, smelled and tasted (when she’d taste things) as it was supposed to, so hopefully things wouldn’t turn out too badly. Or at least that’s what she kept telling herself as she checked over a pot on the stove of sauce for what was actually in the oven cooking. God help her, she really didn’t want to burn anything and give Albus another reason to laugh at her.
She closed the lid and checked the oven before heading over to the fridge to get out another few ingredients for the next item on her list. This wasn’t as hard as it was made to look like when she was a kid. Of course now she had a book telling her step by step what to do but that wasn’t the point. Cooking seemed kind of fun actually. She decided maybe cooking more often would be a plus, since salad got old after awhile even with gourmet ingredients in it.
When she turned back from the stove to the kitchen, she watched as Matthew jumped down from the window and headed over toward her reminding her that he was there, and that he would like whatever it was that she had. “You don’t eat this, don’t even try that with me.” She said with a small laugh coming as she leaned down to pet him a bit before picking him up and wandering off from the kitchen to relax while things continued to cook.
It was a few hours until everything was finished and when it was, she washed her hands (due to petting her cat) then went about setting out the plates full of the food. Once done she grabbed lids so the food was able to be left on the table but still keep the heat in until Albus was supposed to arrive. It was her day off but not his so she figured he’d head home from work before coming here for a shower or something. She wasn’t really sure what was going on and when he’d arrive but likely it wouldn’t be too much longer.
But to make sure he could get in when he arrived, Shaylyn walked to the door and unlocked it, making sure he had an access that way he didn’t have to wait until she answered to come in. Hopefully he wouldn’t be too much longer because the smell was actually quite pleasant and she was VERY proud. She wanted to show off what she did for him since for once it was pretty perfect.
That done she went back into the kitchen to get a drink, she also was considering what she thought Albus would want. Likely something alcoholic considering this was ‘pub’ related food. But she might pour him water and see what would happen. That might be amusing. Hearing the door open, Shay grinned to herself as she walked out of the kitchen holding her glass of water. “What took you so long? I’ve been waiting ages on you and I wanted to show you my masterpiece meal. You'll never need the pub again after this."
