Choking Hazard

Osamu is usually the one who cooks their meals. So, Suna decided that the best way to propose to Osamu was by cooking something for him. He had been thinking of proposing for a while, but he didn't know how. That's until he saw a video of someone hiding the ring in a cake as their proposal. Suna thought it'd be a great way to propose since Osamu loves food.

Suna started preparing by buying ingredients and practicing. He looked up cooking and baking videos in his free time. But he wasn't sure if he was doing well. So, he asked Atsumu and Sakusa to be his taste testers.

"How is it?" Suna asks, nervous. He had his fingers crossed as he waited for their feedback.

"It's bland," Atsumu and Sakusa said in unison. If it were Atsumu only, Suna would've probably doubted it. But even Sakusa thought it was bland.

Suna sighs before leaning on the counter. He's been practicing for two months but didn't improve much. He was feeling defeated until he felt Atsumu's hand on his shoulder.

"I can teach you," Atsumu offers with a grin. Suna raises a brow, "do you even know how to cook?"

Atsumu looks at him, offended, "of course I do! 'Samu and I learned how to cook together. I'm offended you didn't know that, considering we've known each other for more than a decade,"

Suna rolls his eyes at Atsumu's words. He looks at Sakusa for assurance.

"He's a good cook. He's not as good as Osamu, but I think it'll be fine," Sakusa says after noticing that Suna is looking at him.

Suna pushes himself off the counter, "fine I'll take you up on your offer,"

Atsumu smiles and says, "trust me, Sunarin. You'll turn into a five-star Michelin chef under my guidance,"

Suna rolls his eyes again, "you're not even on the same level as Osamu, yet you're telling me you'll turn me into a five-star Michelin chef,"

Suna shakes his head and walks to the pantry to take some ingredients. Atsumu trails behind him, saying, "are you in the position to throw jabs at me when you're the one who needs my help?"

"You're the one who offered to help," Suna said, "I would do fine even without your help,"

Suna places the ingredients on the counter and asks Sakusa to wash them while he takes out the cooking tools.

Atsumu leans on the counter with his arms crossed and says, "okay, I was even going to teach you some of our mother's recipes, but I don't think you need it,"

Suna freezes. He squints his eyes at Atsumu, "you better not be lying,"

"Oh, I thought you weren't interested?" Atsumu asks, his lips pulled in a teasing grin.

Suna wanted to wipe the grin off Atsumu's face, but he restrained himself. Now isn't the time. He still needs Atsumu's help. So, he takes a deep breath and says, "help me, please,"

Atsumu smiles happily and pats Suna's shoulder, "of course! How can I not when you're asking earnestly,"

Atsumu laughs when Suna takes a sharp inhale to calm himself. He wanted to laugh more but decided to take the vegetable from Sakusa instead when Suna glared at him.

"Stop teasing him," Sakusa scolds, making Atsumu pout, "but it's fun. I don't get to tease Sunarin like this often,"

"It's not my fault your comebacks are terrible," Suna says while putting on an apron. Atsumu huffs and grabs Sakusa's arm, "defend me, Omi-kun,"

Sakusa shakes his head, "that's what you get for teasing Suna,"

Atsumu pouts even more and pulls away from Sakusa, "fine, let's just cook,"

Suna shows Atsumu a victorious grin and teases him more before they begin cooking. The process was easy, thanks to Atsumu and Sakusa's help. But his head hurts from reading the instructions Atsumu wrote for him.

Suna closes his eyes and massages his temple, "I'm not sure if I could pull this off when I propose," he unconsciously whispers.

"You're proposing?!" Atsumu's voice echoes in the entire kitchen.

Suna jolted in surprise. He smacks Atsumu's shoulder, yelling, "don't startle me like that!"

"How can I not when I hear you murmuring about proposing?!" Atsumu continues to yell in excitement.
