When Mobius returned home, the first thing that struck him was the inviting and tantalizing fragrance of the pastry being baked.
"Loki?"
"In the kitchen!"
Mobius set his things down, took the time to remove his jacket, tie, and shoes before heading to the kitchen.
Loki turned to Mobius who had just entered, "Mobius you are finally here!"
Mobius' heart pounded faster at the warm welcome.
"What a perfect welcome after a day's work!" he rushed into Loki's open arms and kissed him deeply. Loki moaned enthusiastically into the kiss and wrapped his arms around Mobius' waist.
When they parted Loki said softly, "Welcome home."
Mobius pointed to a tray covered with cookies, "I see you've been busy?"
Loki nodded, "Mother had given me a recipe when we were last in Asgard and I was eager to try it."
Mobius picked up a Croki shaped cookie and asked, "May I? Are they ready to eat?"
"If you don't mind being a guinea pig, by all means, help yourself."
Mobius bit into a cookie and couldn't hold back a lustful moan, "Oh my... Loki. They're wonderful." he said around a mouthful.
Loki blushed slightly, flattered by the praise and handed him a second cookie. Mobius savored it in the same way.
Loki smiled fondly while looking at him, "You have some crumbs. Let me get them off you." He ran his thumb over the edge of Mobius' mouth.
Mobius opened his mouth and Loki couldn't resist, he leaned over and gently put his lips to where he had removed the crumbs and hummed appreciatively, "Mmm. You're right, wonderful." He ran his tongue over Mobius' bottom lip and finished with a kiss. "Really wonderful..." He deepened the kiss, pressing harder, and Mobius tied his hands around his waist. They kissed for a few more moments until the ringing of the oven forced them apart. Loki moved back with a sheepish look on his face, "Sorry, duty calls."
Mobius chuckled and watched as the god pulled another tray out of the oven, inhaling the fragrance of this new batch with delight.
"I have to make the next batch," Loki said, turning to the bowl of batter and starting to whisk it.
Mobius walked up to him and from behind wrapped his arms around his waist.
Loki hummed with contentment and leaned into the embrace continuing to prepare the batter. After a moment, he said softly, "Baka er elska gerumk spiselig."
Mobius looked confused, "Hm?"
Loki smiled fondly, "It's a saying mother often told me, baking is love made edible. So maybe these cookies are just my way of saying I love you."
Loki felt Mobius gasp against him and turned his head towards him, "After all this time it still surprises you?" asked Loki.
Mobius tightened his arms around him and replied, "Sweetheart, know that it will always surprise me, because I don't take your love for granted, but rather for something that needs to be nurtured, in the little things. Like you baking these cookies. Oh and for the record, I love you too."
He kissed the tip of his nose, and then they laughed as Loki continued to prepare the dough, Mobius' arms still around him.
In their happiness, they did not see a certain alligator enter, hoping to get some crumbs too.
