Raquel smiled slightly at him nodding before dashing upstairs to change. She appeared a few moments alter in a pair of jeans, a t shrit, and a light jacket. "I wont be long love..." She soothed gently, kissing his forehead before grabbing a piece of bacon for herself before disappearing out the door.

------------
Raquel finally made it home, coming in the front door with a sigh, calling out into the large house. "I'm home..." she pulled her jacket off, leaving it on the table as she strained to hear from Damian.

"I'm in the kitchen!"
Damian had prepared a special little something for them both while she'd been gone. He had rushed out to the store to purchase a great deal of ice cream, peanuts, and every topping imaginable. It was something that Raquel didn't really know about him, that Damian had a great fondness for sundaes, and he felt like they both needed a bit of sweetness in their day, especially if Raquel was coming back from an ordeal.

((...really? Sundaes? omg Devy... You know thats making me uncomfortable now xD XD *rotfls for awhile*))
Raquel staggered her way into the kitchen, rubbing her head tiredly, and aggravated. She was worried sick over Nat but knew he was in good hands.
She definitely needed a pick me up though.
And upon entering the kitchen, thats exactly what she got. "Wha-..? What is this?" She asked with a chuckle, pushing her messy hair back a bit, smiling wide but a little tiredly.

(( >:3 ))
"Sundaes!" Damian gestured to all the little bowls of peanuts, sprinkles, and finally the tubs of ice cream all set out next to a can of whipped cream. "I thought we could make ourselves a little something while the lovebirds are away. Have a little personal party, you know?"
But as soon as he saw the worried look in her eyes, his own smile faltered a bit.
"...how did everything go?" he asked, before handing her a little bowl and an ice cream scoop.

Raquel saw his falter and smiled a bit more genuinely. "Fine...Nat's jstu a tad under the weather...I just ran over to see how he was...he'll be ok..." She sighed, taking the bowl and scoop, leaning up to kiss him sweetly.
"Why sundaes love?" She asked amused as she began scooping out a little icecream for herself, wanting to focus on a more happy subject for a while.

"Because. I... like sundaes."
Damian began scooping himself some vanilla ice cream and proceeded to pour on some hot fudge.
"There's a certain art to it all... once the hot fudge is on, you must act quickly before it all melts. Next comes the peanuts. I am a firm believer that one cannot have peanuts and those little chocolate M&M candies... it ruins the texture. Sprinkles are fine, for color, if nothing else..."
Damian went around, pouring little quantities of ingredients to make a truly professional-looking sundae, finished with a dollop of whipped cream and the signature cherry on top. It seemed almost perfect.
"And there we go... comfort food." Damian looked to Raquel with an almost shy smile. He wanted so much for her to enjoy this as much as he did, because it was one of the only pleasures in his life that proved to be inexpensive, and full of fond memories.

Raquel cocked an eyebrow, then smiled, before flat out laughing. She said nothing, bringing her bowl around and following his same order, though in a much messier way.When it was time for the whipped cream, she went a little over board on purpose, going as far to squeeze a bit into her own mouth with a bright smile. She laughed a little more, looking down at her mess of a sundae next to Damians with a shake of her head.
"A work of art....if I do say so myself...." She looked up at Damian, eyes loving and full of wonder. Such a small thing she hadn't known about him, yet it said so much and seemed to mean a lot. It was a side of him she hadn't seen and she loved it as well.

"My, uh.. father and I, we would make these on Saturdays when I was younger. It started after my mother died. We hardly knew what to do with ourselves, so we made food."
Damian scooped a bit of whipped cream on his finger and touched her nose lightly with it, and laughed. This was definitely his softer side showing through.
"I suppose you could say I associate this with family."

Raquel looked down a moment, still smiling, then back up at him, her eyes warm and smiling like the rest of her. "That is a wonderful tradition. I would have no problem eating a delicious sundae on a Saturday..." She winked, but knew how serious and amazing this was, that he was starting to open up about his family a bit more. She leaned up and rubbed her nose against his, spreading the whipped love, before tilting her head to give him a deep kiss, interrupting it only to say a soft thank you, then picking up her bowl. "Don't want the ice cream to melt..." She smirked a little, spooning a bit to hold up to him for a bite.

After that kiss, Damian wiped the whipped cream off his nose. He was a little breathless and found himself so taken aback that he was even blushing, which surprised him. But, that was why he was marrying her when the time came, wasn't it? Because she opened up his heart and world again to that magic.
"No... we wouldn't want that." Damian took a few bites of his dessert before giving her a sweet kiss again in the little haven that was the kitchen.

Raquel tried not to giggle like a school girl as she pulled away to pick off the cherry she had thrown on top. She licked the whipped cream off in a childish way, not trying to be seductive (for she knew she could if she so chose to in this situation), before noming it right off the stem.
She gave him a truly happy smile, before her eyebrows raised in a sudden remembrance of something. "Ooh! Ah-" She tried to talk with her mouthful, making it all much funnier. "I can tie a cherry stem into a knot with my tongue!" She exclaimed rather excitedly. She knew that was considered sexy by many men, for she had used such methods in her old lie, but this was more of an innocent memory she wished to share with him. "As kids, and right up into adult hood, we used to have competitions over who could do it the fastest. I always won from the time we used them in icecreams, to the day we had them in mixed drinks at a bar..." She laughed a little popping the little red stem into her mouth, holding up her finger as if telling him to wait a moment.
Just a short time passed at she popped it back out, sure enough, a little knot was in the middle of it as she smiled proudly, making room to sit on the table among the sugary treats.

Damian laughed. He could do the same as well, but not nearly so fast. He took his cherry, and purposefully ate the fruit part in a seductive fashion, just for the sake of either making her nervous or to see her blush. But he soon popped the stem in his mouth with the new goal of making a knot.
He couldn't tie it as fast as Raquel, but he triumphantly held it out and placed it next to hers on the counter.
"You have more cherry experience than I," he said with a laugh. "What about catching peanuts in your mouth? We'd throw those at each other and see who could catch the most without having them bounce off somewhere..." Damian tossed one in the air and caught it with ease, then held one up to see if she would want to try.

Raquel did indeed blush as she studied his features intensely as he messed wih ehr purposefully. Oh how she would get him back in a moment.
Though for the second, she smiled scrunching up her nose. "Hm...Ok I'm game.." She nodded determinedly, tilting her head back, and opening her mouth wide.

Damian tossed a peanut in the air towards her. If it missed and hit her in the face, he reasoned it would not be his fault.
This personal time between them was priceless for him. In a house, just the two of them, messing around with peanuts and cherries while eating sundaes... why didn't he do this for her earlier? Why had he waited for so long just to open up in such a simple way? It seemed they shared the most intimate parts of themselves before doing the very basics...
