Laetus looked at her in confusion for a few moments, but shrugged it off and began mixing eggs, milk and salt to make the eggs for the rice.
"Be careful, alright?" He said glancing over at her with a smile. "Theres no rush, we have all day."

"Yeah, but I wanna get back to the forest. I mean, how likely is it that I would hurt myself aga-- eek!"

At least, she hadn't cut herself this time. Rather, she had given her index finger a slight burn on the stove.

He rushed over to her, this time with peroxide bottle already in hand. When he saw it was a burn, he let out a somewhat relieved sigh, put the bottle aside and took her hand, giving the burn a kiss. He didn't let go of her hand, however. He kept looking at her.
"Are you ok? You seem... distracted."

"Oh yeah," Maddie laughed a little, giving her hand a look of frustration. "Just thinking about...you know, stuff and things about things."

She looked to the frying pan. "I got this, though!"

Laetus just stared at her for a few moments. Eventually, he sighed and let her have her hand back. "Alright, but two things first. One, you get hurt again, I may have to finish this up myself..." He walked back over to the stove to make the eggs.
"And two... If somethings on your mind, you shouldn't hesitate to tell me..." He sounded concerned, but he wasn't going to try and make her tell him.

"I...might end up getting hurt again."

She took to working on the potatoes again, seriously, though, he shouldn't trust her in the kitchen.

"I was just thinking about our kiss. It's stupid."

Laetus sighed. "Please don't. I'm worried about you..."
When she let him know what was on her mind, he smiled. "Oh?.." He asked, a light blush on his cheeks. He moved the egg about witht he spatula, trying to make it like a thin sheet.

"Well, yeah. I mean, when we're so close all the time, it just gets me to thinking."

Luckily, Maddie was able to finish the potatoes without harming herself, and she got started on the rice next.

He began dividing up the egg using the spatula, making strips ready to mix into the rice.
"Ah. I see..." He turned off the burner and put the pan aside, walking up to her. With his part done, all that was left was to wait on the rice. Once she had set it, he put his arms around her from behind.

Maddie had been so focused on her work (in the hopes that she wouldn't hurt herself again) that she hadn't heard him come up behind her. She jumped when his arms wrapped around her waist.

She stared at his hands, a lump in her throat. She tried to say 'you do?' but her words didn't come out, well, at all.
