Chapter Text
Therese and Rindy had decided today was a wonderful day to make cupcakes. The ones with the frosting, Rindy demanded and Therese wasn’t one to say no to anything the tiny blonde asked. She had bought the three of them matching aprons around the time Rindy moved in; Carol and Therese’s had Mom and Mommy sewn in the front with red thread, and Rindy’s had her name sewn in with pink thread.
“And now we add sugar!” Rindy read aloud and moved from the table to the counter to pick up the cups Therese had already measured.
“Do you want to add the sugar or stir?” Therese asked.
“Add the sugar.” Rindy said. She’d tried stirring last time but her 7-year-old hands weren’t as strong as Therese’s yet.
Rindy chose the light blue flowery cases and watched Therese carefully put the tray into the oven.
“Now we wait.” She said as she started putting away the stuff they’d used. Rindy helped with the dishes and so they had cleaned up in no time. As they waited for the cupcakes to be done they attempted to make some homemade frosting, which turned out to be harder than Therese had expected.
“Mom, we can just use the whipped cream we have in the fridge. It tastes better anyway.”
“You know what, you’re right.” Therese said as she opened the fridge and got the can out.
While they were frosting their freshly cooled off cupcakes they could hear Carol rummaging around the house, talking to herself. Rindy always thought it funny but Therese adored listening to her lover mumbling to herself.
“Where is that goddamn sweater?” Carol mumbled while lifting pillows on the couch to check if in some mysterious way it ended up there. When she run out of places to look for she retorted to her last hope.
“Therese, darling, have you seen my blue-” She stopped mid-sentence when her eyes fell on the exact sweater she’d spent 20 minutes looking for, and it was hugging Therese’s torso. Therese lifted her shoulders feigning innocence making Rindy giggle.
“Therese! I’ve been looking everywhere for that. You can’t just steal my clothes without-“ Yet again she stopped mid-sentence. This time though it was because Therese had sprayed a little bit of whipped cream in her mouth, trying to shut her up.
Therese watched Carol’s eyes widen and she could barely hold in her laughter. Rindy was already doubled over on the chair and missed the moment when Carol took Therese by the waist and pulled her close, leaving whipped cream kisses all over her face.
“You’re such a tease.” Carol whispered, still holding Therese’s waist with one hand and trying to clean up her face with the other.
“And you love me for it.”
“I do, don’t I?”
“Mhm”
“I’ll find another sweater.” She said and let go of Therese’s waist after pressing one last kiss to her sugary lips. “But first let me taste one of your masterpieces.”
And that’s how whipped cream cupcakes became a favorite in the Belivet household.
BONUS: That evening Carol made sure to decorate something other than cupcakes with the leftover whipped cream. Therese giggled as the cold cream touched her breasts and her stomach and she shivered when Carol’s mouth ran over the same places, savoring the taste. “You taste better than the best whipped cream cupcake I’ve ever tasted.” Carol murmured as she lowered herself on Therese’s body.
