I Get a Sugar Rush Whenever I'm With You - Chapter 10.2

Happy weekend fellow Drukkari stans, or whatever day it is for you! Hope you're enjoying the new season of Bake Off if you watch! We're getting down to the final installments. There may even be an epilogue as well! If you missed any previous chapters and need to catch up, you can find them all on my Table of Contents here. Sersi finally talked some sense into Druig! See what happens next at the big picnic in a brand new mini-chapter of Drukkari in the Great British Bake Off, featuring random Marvel guest stars!

Sunday arrived swiftly, and Druig found himself back at the gardens outside of the tent. It was strange only being there to eat and not to bake, but Druig had a very different challenge ahead of him. Before that, however, he had friends to greet.

Punctual as ever, Ajak and Karun had already arrived as Druig walked up. Ajak surprised him with a hug before introducing him to her partner. Karun was accompanied by his boss, some American inventor called Howard Stark.

"Mr. Stark was the one who suggested I should apply for the competition," he explained.

"How could I not? Of all the assistants I've ever had, Karun makes the finest cakes by far!" Mr. Stark said proudly.

"You're too kind, sir," Karun replied, a humble smile on his face.

"Sounds like how I got Druig to apply, right mate?" Hunter interjected, giving his co-worker a heavy clap on the shoulder, much to his annoyance. He'd practically begged Druig to let him come to the picnic. Druig had reluctantly agreed, but he was beginning to regret that decision.

"Yeah, take all the credit for my success, why don't you?" Druig responded, rolling his eyes.

"I will take credit! I got you into baking in the first place!" Hunter replied indignantly.

"Well, it's good that you did. We're all quite impressed with Druig's work," Ajak added with an amused grin. "By the way, how far into the competition did you get?"

"Semi-final," he answered, trying not to look too pleased with himself.

"Wow, congratulations!" Ajak said, her grin taking over her face.

"Well done, Mr. Druig!" Karun said.

"Thanks," Druig said with a small smile.

As they talked, a few more bakers and guests trickled in. Thena had come alone, giving them all a nod and a small smile of acknowledgment as she arrived, but Sprite was followed from a distance by her mother, father, and a hoard of younger siblings, much to everyone's amusement.

"Good day, everyone," Sprite said as she approached the group.

"Aren't you going to introduce us to your family, Sprite?" Ajak asked.

"Nope, they agreed to stay at least ten feet away," she answered. "I wanted it to be thirty, but they negotiated me down."

"Well, you can stay here then while I introduce myself," Ajak replied cheerfully. She began to march over to the group, Karun following close behind. Hunter observed all of them with amusement. Sprite merely groaned and rolled her eyes.

"So, how have you two been?" Thena asked, turning to Sprite and Druig.

"Fine, busy with school," Sprite said glumly.

"Gilgamesh tells me you made it to Week 7. You should be proud."

The red-haired teen softened a bit at this. "Thanks, Thena."

"And I hear you made it to the semi-final, Druig. Congratulations."

"Thanks," he said softly, ducking his head. Next to him, Sprite's eyes resumed their usual glare.

"I'm gonna go find Ajak," she said before stomping off. Thena waited until the teen was out of earshot before turning back to him.

"So, have you been patient?" Thena asked.

"A bit too patient, perhaps," Druig mused. Thena merely raised an eyebrow at his words.

"What's stopping you now?"

"The walls of that tent."

"Well, that won't be a problem for much longer," she remarked with a sly grin. Thena then walked away, rejoining Sprite as she properly introduced her parents and siblings. Druig hung back, and Hunter was walking back over to him when they were greeted by a familiar call.

"Hey, Druig!" Sersi said as she approached him, hand-in-hand with Dane. They were followed by an older couple, presumably Sersi's parents, and a shy but handsome gentleman who was gawking at everything around him. Dane introduced the man as his colleague, Steven Grant.

"Glad I'm not the only one!" Hunter declared, inserting himself into the conversation once again. "Did you also dare your work mate to bake a cake, which escalated into him entering a televised baking competition?"

"Um, not exactly. No. We used to be flat mates, and I got him to start watching the show," Steven mumbled.

"He taste-tested a lot of my bakes when I started out," Dane explained.

"Is that really how you started baking, Druig?" Sersi asked, equal parts incredulous and amused.

Before Druig could give an answer, Hunter had already jumped in and was soon regaling Steven and Dane with his (much-exaggerated) version of the story. As they talked, Sersi pulled Druig aside.

"So, are you ready? You have a plan?" she asked quietly.

"Yeah. I'll wait until after they announce the winner, then I'll take her aside to talk to her," he explained.

"Good. Simple and straightforward. Anything I can help with?"

"If anyone asks where we've gone, keep 'em distracted?"

"I'm on it," Sersi answered confidently.

Just then, Druig noticed Ikaris walking up to the picnic area.

"Although, if you're otherwise occupied, I'd understand," he said, his eyes fixed on the approaching man.

Sersi turned to look at him, too, her eyebrows raising only slightly in response. She let out a quite breath as she turned back to Druig and stated, "I'll be fine. I promise."

"Alright. But if they start fighting and you need someone to intervene, I can always jump in," he replied nonchalantly.

"Seriously?" Sersi asked, more amused than taken aback.

"What? I can hold my own in fight."

"Thank you, but I really don't think that will be necessary."

As he got closer, Ikaris's gaze met Sersi. She gave him a slight grin and a nod of acknowledgment, and he returned it in kind. Before he could say anything, Ajak had wandered over and struck up a conversation with him. With that, Sersi returned to Dane's side. He and Steven were still avidly listening to Hunter, who was in the middle of another (probably embarrassing) story about Druig. Druig merely rolled his eyes and turned his attention elsewhere.

While they were talking, a few more groups had arrived, including a father and son that Druig soon recognized from photos Phastos had shared with them over dinner. He realized he'd been staring a little too late, as the father looked up and gave him a tentative wave and smile. Druig waved back as the man and son approached.

"Hi, we're here for the picnic," he explained.

"You've come to the right place. Ben, I presume?" Druig asked.

"Yup, and this is Jack! Say hello," Ben said, ushering the boy forward.

"Hello!" Jack greeted with the biggest smile.

"Hello, Jack. I'm Druig," he responded. The boy's eyes grew big at the sound of his name.

"My daddies talk about you all the time!" Jack said excitedly.

"Is that right?" Druig asked, an amused smile tugging at his lips.

"Jack, why don't you introduce yourself to the other kids?" Ben asked hurriedly. Jack was all too happy to zip ahead, making fast friends with Sprite's siblings. Ben turned back to Druig with a sheepish look. "I'm afraid the gossip has been too tempting to resist."

"It's alright. Phastos was quite upfront about who he shares all our secrets with," Druig remarked, drawing a chuckle from Ben.

"Well, then I have to ask. How's everything with Makkari?"

"Good. Things are good with Makkari."

"That's a relief! I was worried for a little while."

Just then, someone else caught Ben's eye. Druig followed his gaze back to Sersi and Dane, who were both laughing at something Steven had said.

"Is that…" Ben began to ask.

"Sersi and Dane? I can introduce you, if you like," Druig offered.

"That would be great!" Ben answered cheerily.

They walked over to the group and chatted pleasantly as the day wore on.

Bit of fun before the big finale, coming next week! It'll be up on AO3 a day early!

Everyone’s talking about how heart breaking Makkari’s wail was when Druig was thrown by Ikaris but have you seen this? Look at our Speedster’s face. This is really heart breaking for me. She’s losing her family. She thought she lost her love. 

Lauren deserves an award. I love her.

I Get a Sugar Rush Whenever I'm With You - Chapter 10.3

Hello fellow Drukkari stans! Somehow, we've made it to the finale! If you've missed any chapters and need to catch up, you can find the rest of the story on my Table of Contents here or find me on AO3 if you have an account! Everyone has gathered for the final picnic, and all that's left is for a winner to be crowned! Well, and one more thing... So without further ado, here's the final installment of Drukkari in the Great British Bake Off!

Before too long, they noticed the camera crews moving closer. After a bit of set up, the three finalists came walking out of the tent, each carrying a basket full of treats. Gilgamesh was first, greeting Thena with a warm smile as he set his basket down. Then came Phastos, whose son ran up to him and went straight for the basket. Phastos gently chided him, telling Jack that they had to wait a little while before they could eat, much to Ben's amusement. And finally, Makkari, whose parents were waiting at the table to hug her hello. Druig stood back with the other bakers, applauding silently. After greeting her parents, Makkari's eyes fell on him, and a soft smile bloomed on her face. He beamed back at her.

They didn't have time to talk, as the judges were soon out of the tent, along with the hosts and Kingo. They emerged one by one, lining up in front of the waiting finalists. After a brief pause, Arishem gave a speech congratulating them for making it to the final challenge. Once he finished, the hosts took over, pausing dramatically a few times before announcing the winner: Gilgamesh.

The crowd whooped and clapped as Gil stepped forward to claim his prize. Darcy and Kingo were also there with bouquets for Makkari and Phastos, who were all smiles. As the rest of them applauded, Thena came over to give Gil a kiss on the cheek and a hug. This set off another round of whoops from the other bakers, not that they noticed. Makkari and Phastos soon joined in, and the rest of the bakers followed suit, squeezing into a tight group hug. As they broke apart, Druig was pleased to find himself standing next to Makkari.

Hi, he greeted.

Hi, she returned.

Did you miss me? he asked.

In response, Makkari smiled and jutted out her chin. Druig didn't even try to suppress his own grin as he mirrored her.

Soon, Gil was pulled away for one final interview, and the food was distributed. With everyone busy talking and eating, it seemed like the perfect time for Druig and Makkari to sneak away. Before they did, however, Hunter suddenly appeared at his elbow.

"Hi, I'm Hunter, Druig's friend from work," he said, signing along clumsily, much to Druig's surprise.

I'm Makkari, she replied, a grin spreading across her face. So, you're the one responsible for Druig becoming a baker?

Hunter looked at Druig expectantly. It seemed his vocabulary was still rather rudimentary. With a sigh, Druig interpreted for him, and Hunter lit up at Makkari's words.

"Yes, that was all my doing," he said with a mischievous grin of his own. He then turned to Druig, saying, "Well, she's definitely a keeper."

"Shove off," Druig retorted as they turned back to Makkari, who was laughing quietly at their interaction.

"Hunter was just going to talk to his new friends, right, Hunter?"

"Ah, yes, that's right," Hunter said. "It's nice to meet you."

Nice to meet you, too!

With that, Hunter turned to go, but not before whisper-shouting to Druig, "Get on with it!"

Druig's only response was to push him firmly toward another group of people. He turned back to Makkari, who was watching him with clear amusement in her eyes. He took a deep breath.

Walk with me? Druig asked, offering a hand.

Of course, Makkari answered, taking his hand and interlacing their fingers.

Druig led her away from the crowd and the cameras to a small clearing under some trees he'd spotted earlier. It was close enough that he could still see the picnic area but obscured enough to give them a little privacy. Taking a deep breath, he turned to face Makkari. She was looking at him, eager but patient, a small smile on her lips, her hand still holding his. A part of him wanted to just stay in this moment, held forever in her warm hand and affectionate gaze, but he had things to say. Giving her hand a final reassuring squeeze, Druig let go so he could sign.

I've been thinking a lot this past week about you and me. I meant it when I said you're my best friend, but I've also been keeping something from you. I didn't want to tell you before because I was just scared that it would change things between us. You already know that the last thing I want is to lose you. But I also realized that I can't keep ignoring how I feel, especially after the bed incident… which I know I'm supposed to forget about and I will–

Druig, Makkari interrupted. She'd been listening to him carefully, but her eyebrows had shot up at the mention. I said we should forget about the bed incident because you seemed so freaked out afterward. If you're okay to talk about it, we can.

I thought you were the one freaking out about it, he responded.

I was, but only because I thought… she looked pensive for a moment. No, say what you were going to say.

Are you sure?

Yes, I'm sure–

Because you can go first if–

Druig, please–

Makkari grabbed his hands, cutting him off before he could interject again. She was looking at him intently, but the gentle smile hadn't left her face. Druig's heart was beating so hard, he was certain she would feel it reverberating through his hands, as it was throughout the rest of his body. She let go to tell him, Continue.

The look she gave him was so earnest and warm that the words just tumbled out of him.

I'm in love with you, Makkari. Would you go out with me?

For a moment, she looked stunned. Then, her smile returned as she answered, Absolutely.

Relief washed over Druig so quickly, he thought he might keel over. He was about to take her hand again when Makkari raised it to speak more.

I did think you were going to ask me something else, though.

Just like that, the floor dropped out from under him again.

What? he asked.

She considered him for a moment before continuing, her cheeks growing ever so slightly pink. I thought you were going to ask to kiss me.

Druig's eyebrows shot up.

Beautiful Makkari, I didn't think you'd want to move that fast.

I'm the fastest one in the tent, aren't I? Besides, we've kind of been on two dates already–

Does it really count as a date if at least one person doesn't know it's a date?

I thought I was being obvious! No wonder it took you this long to figure out that I'm in love with you, too.

Druig could've sworn his heart skipped a beat. Even Makkari seemed a bit surprised at her words, but as she looked at him smiling at her, her own smile returned brighter than ever. The sight gave him the courage to say his next words.

So, my beautiful, beautiful Makkari, can I kiss you?

Yes, she said quickly, taking a step toward him. He met her there, one hand coming up to cup her cheek as he leaned in. When their lips met, Druig felt heat spreading throughout him from head to toe. They began to move, lips sliding insistently against each other. His other arm wrapped around her waist, drawing her flush against him. One of her hands found its way up to his hair, pulling him down to her as she deepened the kiss. He took a few more steps forward as he reciprocated eagerly, walking her backwards, and she squeaked as her back made contact with a tree. They broke apart and erupted into quiet giggles as they both caught their breath, leaning their foreheads against each other. They stayed there for a minute, wrapped in each other's arms and gazing into each other's eyes with sheer adoration. As they both leaned in again, Druig knew he'd been wrong earlier. He'd much rather live in this moment forever.

Thank you to everyone who's been keeping up with this fic! I'm working on an epilogue that I'll hopefully post within the next week or two!
