Ian walked into the kitched. Nobody had made rolls for the day and it had to be done. He looked around the kitchen for the bag of flour and saw it in the corner. He ripped it open and coughed a little as flour puffed up in his face. Would he ever learn? He dragged the bag over to the counter and hoisted it up. He forgot to grab the bucket of water and the yeast sitting over by the fire. "What a stupid place to put it." he thought.
He dragged them back to the counter. He scooted a nearby tray and another bucket closer to him. He poured the flour and some water into the bucket and mixed it around, adding more flour and a bit of yeast. He hoped he was doing it right. He hadnt cooked in a while. He mixed the ingredience until they were doughy. He had done something right. He walked over to the oven and opened it, balncing the tray on his open, flat palm. He slid the tray into the warm oven and closed it. He was glad it was night. He had had nothing alse to do at the time. He was glad to be of help. He leaned up aginst the counter and waited for nothing.

Wanda yawned and scratched her blond hair. She heard someone moving around in the Kitchen and she peered around the corner. Ian was baking bread. A warm smile spread across her face as she walked in. "Hello Ian!" She said wrapping her arms around herself and leaning against the counter beside him. "What are you doing?"
Looking up innocently at Ian she smiled softly and leaned her head against his arm. The smell of bread slowly filling her nose and she smiled again. "You're making bread?" She stood and peered in the oven.

Ian smiled and wrapped his arm around Wanda. He hadnt seen her in a while. "Ya. Someone needed to do it. I havnt seen you all day." he said. He looked into the oven to check on them. They had risen a little but nothing to dramatic. He looked back to Wanda. Her blonde hair was bright and wavy, and he tucked it behind her ear. He wished he had hung around Wanda more today. He had missed her teribly, even though it had only been a day.
He had been with her for a while and he hated being apart. Just that morning he had let her sleep, hoping she would be rested.It worked. Not only she was rested, she was in a good mood."What did you do today?"

Wanda leaned against Ian and put her head on his chest and smiled. "I made soap with Mel and Anne today. " She said before backing up and showing him the red spots that dotted her arms from where the soap had splattere, before showing her pink hands.
She remembered everything that had happened. Anne had explained that she liked Ian, and that's why she couldn't like Wanda. Wanda's smile faded as she remembered before the smile came back.
She pulled herself up beside him on the counter and wrapped her arms around his neck and kissed his cheek. "What'd you do today?" She questioned, stroking his cheek and smiling brightly.

Ian looked down at her hands. He smiled and laughed."Was it the bucket I broke?I hope it wasnt. I would feel terible."He kissed her on the cheeck back and took her hands in his. They were pink, and her arms were covered in pink splotches. He brung them up to his face and kissed her arms and hands, like kissing a boo-boo.
He sighed and said,"Well, I plowed half the field. Nothing to exciting. There wasnt any other work i could find." He pointed to the dirt covering his pants and shirts. He would need to get a change of clothes soon. He would have to ask jeb for one, and soon.
He saw Wanda's smile fade for a second and he was curious. "Did something happy or go wrong?"he said. He frowned at her, bringing her hands back down. She shouldnt have to be. He searched her eyes, looking fo an answer but found nothing. Would she lie to him? He would know if she did.

Wanda giggled and blushed when Ian kissed her hands and arms before she looked away when he asked her if something went wrong. Staring at the buns she shrugged. "There was an air bubble and I went to get it off, Mel seemed to be urked about something." She answered beofre jumping down and pulling open the oven.
Grabbing a set of oven mittens she pulled them out and placed them on the counter.

Ian frowned and said,"Mel is always Urked over something, little or big. It probaly isnt anything. Did you talk to her about it?" He could tell that what Wanda had said wasnt all of it, but he didnt want to push her. It might be private. He hesitated before reaching out to cradle her cheek. He searched her face for any emotion other than hapiness. She was happy or lying. He hoped she was happy.
She turned away to the rolls. He watched as she pulled out the buns and placed them on the counter. He walked over and pulled the gloves off her hands and put them on the counter.

Wanda shook her head. "No. She looked even more angry once I left, so I decided that she needs time to cool down." She turned back around reached up and placed her hands on Ian's cheek. "I've missed you." She murmured to Ian before standing on her tiptoes and kissing him. Pulling back she smiled and wrapped her arms around his waist and hugged him lightly.

Ian sighed when she said mel was upset."Dont worry. She'll be okay in a little bit. She never stays mad for long. Unless its something big." he said. He laughed as she put her hand on his cheek and he held it there. She reached up on her tip toes and gave him a kiss, then she hugged him. He hugged her back and replied, "I missed you too. All day."
He looked down and said, "Are you hungery. You look like you are.When did you last eat?" He reached across to the counter close to them and grabbed an apple and a water. He held them out to her."You know the rules. We have to eat them or they'll go bad." he said.

Wanda giggled and grabbed the water and apple before placing them on the counter. "I ate during supper, but to make you happy, I'll have half of the apple and you can finish it off." She said before biting into the apple making a crunching noise. Leaning against the counter she smiled and swallowed the apple bit before taking another. Using her pinkie she pulled a piece of hair away from her mouth and handed the apple to Ian and said. "You're turn." She said smiling brightly and picked up the water. "Besides we're suppose to share the apples." She said innocently.
