Sweet as Cinnamon - Chris x MC (Ariana) AU

Masterlist

Note: This is day four of the Christmas prompts HERE. Today’s prompt is “Baking cookies”. The posting goes for 12 days, and starts on the 13th of December. (Day 4)

Side note: I just wanna point out that I chose cinnamon cookies because a good friend that I have here by the blog name of @maxattack-powell isn’t a very sweet toothed person. So this is for you. AJ relates 😉

Pairing: Chris x MC

Rating: G/T I’m horrible at ratings and it also depends on the chapter

Summery:

Ariana woke up to her phone ringing.

“Hello?” Her voice was heavy with sleep when she answered. Her eyes were still closed, therefore she didn’t know who had called.

“Hey Ariana. It’s AJ. I’m sorry to call you so early but I couldn’t wait to tell Chris. Before you answer or talk let me finish.” Ariana yawned and was happy to just listen for the time being.

“Okay, so Nick told me how good of a time he and Chris had yesterday, and today I thought ‘how about we all meet together at our place and we tell Chris that we are engaged.’ What do you think?” Ariana slowly and quietly got out of bed, trying hard not to disturb Chris.

“Uh yeah sounds great. We’ll be there at about 4 maybe?” “Yes sounds perfect. I can’t wait to tell him.” Ariana yawned again. “Yeah okay, neither can I but I’m really tired at the moment. Am I granted permission to end this call?” AJ laughed a bit. “Yeah sure. Thanks, and goodnight.” Ariana ended the call.

She walked into her room again and put her phone on the bedside table facing down.

“Who was that?” Chris asked as Ariana got back into bed. “AJ.” Chris wrapped his arm around her waist. “What’d she want?” Ariana sank into his embrace. “We’re meeting her and Nick at their apartment tomorrow at 4.” She felt Chris’ nose nuzzle into her shoulder and after a few minutes, they both fell asleep.

_______________________________________________________________________

As morning came, the light from the sun shone on her face, indicating that Chris was already up.

She was wearing her underwear and a tanktop because they had about five blankets on last night, as well as the fire pit they had in their room, and Chris was a human furnace so that just got a tad bit much for her. Not sure how Chris felt, she didn’t want to disrupt him anymore then she had already done.

She got out of bed and put her robe on. It was light pink, and really fluffy.

She went downstairs and to the kitchen to collect a cup of coffee for herself then opened the door so Charlie could go to the bathroom. She kept the door open and walked over to the couch.

She settled herself so she was comfy and warm. The coolness of the air from opening the door sent a chill down her back so she needed to get warm and toasty again.

Chris came out of the laundry as Ariana turned on the TV. “What were you doing there?” Ariana asked suspicion. “I was putting some clothes to wash.” Ariana eyed his suspiciously. “But you never do that Chris. I do that.” Chris laughed nervously. “Yeah well, I thought it’s a great way to change stuff around right?” Ariana rolled her eyes.

“Well since you’re turning over a new leaf Chris, how about we go grocery shopping together?” Chris groaned. “Yeah, um sure babe, whatever you want.” “What is going on with you Christopher?” “Nothing. I assure you nothing suspicious is going on.” Chris said nodding. Ariana laughed. No one who was hiding something said there was nothing suspicious going on. She rolled her eyes at that thought.

“Why do we need to go buy food? We have enough already.” “Because Chris, since we’re going to AJ and Nick’s house for the first proper time, I wanna bake some cookies for them. It’s Christmas season, so I’ll bake Christmas ones.” Ariana finished her coffee, her eyes were not holding sleep anymore. Chris nodded and poured himself a mug of coffee.

“I’ll get ready. Look after Charlie. I haven’t given him his morning treats so give them to him please?” Ariana walked back upstairs to her bedroom which held an ensuite.

As Ariana got out of the car with Chris, Chris tried to lead Ariana to the sports store. Ariana rolled her eyes at Chris’ determination to get there. “Chris my love, I need cinnamon, not a football.” “After?” Ariana chuckled. “Maybe. I wanna get the shopping done, I’m really cold.” As if on cue, a strong gust of cold wind made her shiver. “I’m sorry baby. Why don’t we finish this up so we can meet AJ and Nick on time huh?” Ariana nodded. That was her plan all along anyway.

She entered the store and went to the spice section. She turned around to ask Chris if he’d rather cinnamon or mixed spice cookies, but he wasn’t there. “Chris, can’t stay still for two minutes.” She muttered under her breath. She took the cinnamon then went to look for Chris.

She forgot to take her phone with her so she could exactly call him. She wandered around the whole shop and finally saw Chris at the sports section.

“So, we can’t go to a sports store and you find the sports section?” Chris looked up and met her amused gaze. “I wanted to get Nick something. You know, as a “I’m sorry” gift. I feel really bad for hitting him. You were right, he is a nice guy once you get to know him.” Ariana giggled. “My love, I’m sure you don’t need to buy his forgiveness.”

They were heading towards the front when Ariana remembered she needed to buy flour so she quickly ran back to get that. While she was gone, a young lady approached Chris.

“Hi.” Her voice was innocent. “Hello.” Her eyes ran up and down his body. “I’m Amelia.” She smiled and then bit her bottom lip. “I’m Chris.” His gaze never left her eyes. “I’m sorry, I just saw you alone and wanted to talk.” “Yeah well, as long as talking is all you’re here for.” She giggled but Chris really didn’t know why. “That wasn’t a joke.” Amelia flushed. “I-I’m sorry. I just think that we should get to know each other. Become friends you know?”

His arms were crossed and she reached out and ran her hands down. Lucky for Chris, he didn’t have to do anything because Ariana came marching in. She had that possessive glint in her eyes. She walked up to Chris, gave him a quick kiss that left him dazed and then entwined their hands showing of her engagement wedding rings. Chris gave a low chuck, barely audible.

“Who’s your new friend my love?” She arched an eyebrow at Amelia. Amelia’s face started to look intimidated. “I’m Amelia.” She tried to smile but failed.

“Well then hi Amelia. Since you’re friends with my husband, I guess I shouldn’t play bad.” Ariana smiled at Amelia. “Yeah um sure. Look I have to go now. Bye Chris.” She waved and scurried of.

“That was quite something baby.” Ariana shrugged. You’re mine Christopher Powell. And now you’re mine forever and always.” “Yes, forever and always.” Chris agreed.

_______________________________________________________________________

As they got home, Ariana took the bags and went straight to the kitchen.

“So babe, why did you get all possessive and angry?” Ariana began to unpack the bags as she replied to him. “I was possessive because a girl was flirting with my husband. I trust you, I just didn’t like the way she touched your arm. As for the angry part, I wasn’t angry. I was just trying to prove a point.” She took her rings of and put them in a bowl which she placed on top of the microwave.

“I’m gonna make cinnamon cookies since I know AJ doesn’t like sweet things very much.” Chris smiled at her.

Everyday he woke up next to this woman, he considered himself lucky. Lucky that she cared enough to always please him, his side of the family, her family, and she put everyone else before herself. She was the most selfless person he had ever met, and he knew from the day they made it official, he was never going to do anything to ruin that good thing. So the moment he could, he claimed her as his, and put a ring on her finger.

“So, do you mind bringing your cute butt here and helping your lovely wife with the cookie dough?” Chris chuckled. “Of course I don’t mind baby.”

He helped her all afternoon with the cookie’s.

After they finished in the oven, she took them out and placed them on a cooling rack to cool.

“I’m gonna go change. I have flour and cinnamon all over my clothes.” Ariana and Chris laughed in unison.

As she went upstairs, Chris made sure the coast was clear before he gobbled five cookies down. He tried to wipe all the cinnamon that was left all over his mouth before Ariana came back, but he wasn’t quick enough.

“Christopher Powell. Did you seriously eat the cookies I just baked?” Chris had a slight guilty look on his face. As she came closer, her hands rested on her hips. “I have no regrets.” Ariana found his lips and kissed him deeply.

“Not that I mind Ari, but what was that for?” Ariana shrugged. “I needed that. I don’t know why, but after that Amber or whatever girl hit on you, I haven’t been able to shake the jealousy away.” Chris laughed. “First, her name is Amelia.” Ariana cut him of before he could continue. “I really couldn’t care less if her name was Amber, Amelia or even Ariana. You’re mine. Not her’s.”

Chris chuckled. He got rid of any space there was between them and kissed Ariana. “I know I’m yours. But you’re mine as well. What’s one without the other?” Ariana grinned. “God, I love you so much Chris.” “Hmm, I love you a lot as well.”

“Crap, we need to leave. It’s 3:30.” Chris checked his watch and grabbed the tin of cookies. “We can eat it on the way.” Ariana glared at him. “I mean we can seat it in the back so it doesn’t roll away.” Ariana rolled her eyes. “Nice safe Chris.”

(To be continued in the next day because I’m tired)
