             ” Bring me the frosting ! “

        Sherlock barked, frantically
        striding around his kitchen.
        For once flasks and tubes and
        chemicals weren’t bombarding
        the table—-they were replaced
        with cupcake necessities.
        As ridiculous as it seemed,
        John’s birthday was arriving
        and the detective found that
        cupcakes seemed to be
        a basic enough gift.

        But, God, it required
        experience.

            The dark-haired man slapped
            a carton on eggs on the
            counter—not hard enough
            to crack them, though.

             " Molly, where’s the butter
             —Did you forget the butter ?! “

            Sherlock whipped around 
            to give the pathologist a
            frightened glare,
            teeth gritted.

          The cupcakes had to be
            p e r f e c t for him !!

When Sherlock had asked her to help him bake John cupcakes for his birthday, Molly had been hesitant to accept to begin with until she had seen how keen he had been to do such a thing for his friend. He clearly wanted to do something now, so she had come to the flat armed with a recipe and all of the ingredients needed.

"Sherlock, relax. I made sure I brought everything.” Making her way to the box she had brought the ingredients in, pulling out the block of butter a moment later. “See, it’s still in here.”

She had thought he would have at least some idea when it came to cooking, but that was clearly wrong as he seemed to be clueless about it all. “Have you read the recipe? Do you know how to start?”
