Chapter 116

After the next test, which was also the third one, Dio was the one to suggest that they go baking again. It was quickly becoming a tradition of sorts between them. Baking helped Louis relax, and staring at Louis helped Dio relax, it was a very inclusive exercise.

As usual, it was just them in the large kitchen, other students sleeping in. What's more, there had been a steady drizzle all day, so there was more of a reason for most to stay indoors. 

By the third time, neither of them needed to ask, it was already routine by this point. This time, the weather was bright, and cool, puffy clouds hanging low.

They had to stop at the kitchens to get fresh raspberries as there were none at the Cooking club. The cooks were already well acquainted with Louis who found himself stopping by the kitchens far too often.

"Do you think they gave us too many raspberries?" Dio asked, peeking into the cloth-covered basket.
