(OOC: Sorry my cooking description isn't as descriptive as I might have liked... I had everything where I wanted it and then lost the post so this is my slightly quicker attempt as a nice recovery.)
IC: "One raspberry herb tea coming right up!" Luke called back as he immediately put the tea kettle on the back burner of the stove in order to heat. Lifting the now cooked bacon out of the pan with a pair of tongs he placed the meat on his cutting board before sopping up the excess grease that remained in the pan with some paper towels and then throwing them away.
"I hope this tastes as good to you as it smells!" Luke called back to Raina as he went about chopping and dicing the bacon, ham, onion, and pepper. Quickly tossing it all into the now lightly greased pan he let it all began to cook and soften as he set about cracking and beating together several eggs.
"So what's the dress code for your party tonight?" The blind man called again, trying to keep the conversation light and maybe even a touch playful as he moved on to grating cheese and then placing two slices of toast in the toaster, ready to go down and start browning at the push of a level. "Formal, Semi-formal, casual, or western?"
"Oh wait... I know!" He continued as he poured the warmed ingredients into a bowl and then immediately poured his eggs into the still warm pan, "Hawaiian right? All you girls will be in hula skirts and coconut bikinis."
The blind man knew he was being a little bit over the top but he was doing his best to distract his mind from the feelings that were running rampant through his body. Maybe kissing Raina again hadn't been a good idea... especially since it was right before he started handling sharp knives and hot pans. "That's not a bad description of Raina... sharp wit and hot body." He thought before he swiftly pushed the idea off to the side. Now was not the time. After pouring the now hot water over the tea bag Luke set about putting the leftover ingredients back in the fridge before making his way back over to the now partially cooked eggs and pouring the meat, vegetables, and cheese into the pan along with the eggs.
As the omelet continue to cook Luke set about washing the dishes that he was already finished with. Early on in his cooking experience he had learned that having a large stack of dishes to clean after the meal was no fun so instead he now washed everything as he went. A few minutes later after having folded the omelet, buttered the toast, removed the t-bag from the mug, and placed the now empty pan in the sink with some water in it to keep anything from sticking, Luke balanced two plates of food on his left arm. On each plate was half an omelet and a slice of butter, whole wheat toast. In his right hand was a mug of hot tea along with two forks.
"And breakfast is served!" Luke said with a cheerful smile on his face as he walked out into the living room and then sat down on the edge of the couch, careful not to sit on Raina's outstretched legs. After setting her mug of tea on the coffee table he offered her one of the plates of food along with a fork. "Hungry?" He asked with a slight smirk on his face as he used a double meaning, "I know I am..."

"Hawaiian right? All you girls will be in hula skirts and coconut bikinis." "Howd you guess?" called Raina. "nothing stays secret around here." she laughed. "You dress in any way that you feel comfortable." she answered. Nothing would be nice
bad raina. baaaad.
She smerked... he reappeared a few moments later with the food. "Wow! This looks like something off the TV! You did that so quickly and it smells amazing and mmmm" she was at a loss of words and reverted to making hungry noises.
She eagerly accepted the plate and fork and began to eat. "I am very hungry." she answered. "We need to make sure we eat more, and on time!" she scarfed down the food trying to remind herself to take her time and savour but she was so hungry the satisfaction of filling her stomach was about all she could handle- besides it momentarily kept her mind off.. well other things.
In a flash she was finished and scooped her things up heading toward the kitchen. "woo look at the time! Well, you cant. Sorry." she laughed playfully and somewhat embaressed. "But it's getting late." she put the plate and fork into the sink and grabbed her mug of tea and downed it in one gulp and then re-filled it with water about 2 more times and swallowed all in one chug each. "Woo, I was parched and didn't realize it!" she commented washing the dishes up.
"I've got some errands to run and some things to do before I start with the party. If you'd like to come early I'd love that." she said. "I appreciate breakfast... and well.. everything..." she reflected. "The past few days went by in a blur." it was true.
"Im really happy." she said finishing up with her dishes and putting them on the rack to dry. She walked back to Luke. She reallly really wanted to kiss kiss him again but decided a forhead kiss would be best and that's what he got. "and I don't mean to rush. But I've got to get going. My number is on your fridge, I'm going to buy a braille book this afternoon." she told him truthfully. "but until then you'll have to get someone to read it to you."
She straightened herself up. "I'll see you later!" she called heading for the door.
ooc: feel free to GMOD a bit so we have a believeable exit!

Luke was amazed at how quickly Raina plowed... yeah, that was the right world... plowed through her food. She ate with a gusto that would have made any chef happy. In fact, she was already up and heading for the kitchen by the time he was finished with his toast and about half way through his omlette. As she babbled on the blind man quickly ate the last of his food, setting the empty plate down on the coffee table just as she came walking back in to give him a quick kiss on the forehead.
"I'll see you later!" Raina called as she headed for the door. Everything was happening so fast and Luke had to admit that he was beginning to get confused. She had stuff to do but couldn't they at least manage a proper kiss goodbye? Maybe he was imagining they were farther along than they really were.
"Raina..." Luke said quickly as he stood up and moved after her, catching her hand just before she reached the door. Lifting his other hand he gently touched her face, smiling down at her. "Thanks for the training. Maybe in the next week or two we can do it again."
He wanted to kiss her... he wanted to kiss her so bad but her actions still had him confused. Maybe for now it was best just to leave things as they were. Dropping his hand from her cheek Luke reached forward and opened the door, trying to be the gentleman as he gave her hand a gentle squeeze before releasing her completely. "I'll see you this afternoon Raina... happy birthday."
A few moments later she was gone and Luke was closing the door as a rather wistful expression came over his face. Walking over to the guest bedroom he leaned against the doorway as his mind began to run to the areas he had kept it from all morning. What had she worn to bed? What did she look like when she slept? Had she wanted him with her as much as he had wanted to be with her? Finally breaking his revoire Luke turned to walk back into the rest of the apartment when he suddenly noticed the dress Raina had left hanging from the curtain rod.
"Well..." He murmured thoughtfully as a playful smile appeared on his face, "I wouldn't want to embaress her in front of her friends so I guess she'll just have to come back here to pick that up. Maybe we can manage another evening sometime soon."
