[praiseofblood]

"Good thing I spent time in Mexico," Darren grinned. "I can make a fajita that would rock your socks." he smiled. "Vale, me amor?"

[clementine]

"Um...you too." Eppi smiled, not understanding any spanish. "I only know about Mexico because Mintaka got me a ethnic cookbook for my birthday." He said proudly.

[praiseofblood]

Darren laughed. "Nice improvising, even though you didn't understand a word of that." he said.

"It's really beautiful. I'll take you someday." he smiled. "Earth in general is a gorgeous place. Humans don't realize how good they've got it."

[clementine]

"That's just one of my many qualities." Eppi batted his eyelashes and giggled. "I'd love to go to Earth with you. It sounds lovely." The teen got up on his toes and kissed the cheetah, smiling."

[praiseofblood]

Darren grinned, before lifting the boy up, setting him against the counter as he kissed him deeply. When they broke, Darren stepped away, controlling himself as he reached behind him for the ingredients to make the fajitas.

"Alright babe, show me what you want on these things." he smiled.

[clementine]

Epsilon was getting less and less sure of wanting Darren to control himself. The kiss left him shuddering and feeling great. He had to blink a few times to focus on the task at hand.

"Let's see...they gotta be chicken, of course." Eppi said smiling, hopping off the counter top to join Darren. "Oh, with peppers and unions, sour cream...lettuce, tomatoes, and cheddar cheese." The teen trailed off, practically moaning as he envisioned what this was all going to taste like.

[praiseofblood]

Darren smiled, nodding. "Alright, we'll make 'em just like they do on earth." he smiled, going into his walk in refrigerator. Darren pulled out the vegetables and chicken, wandering back into the kitchen. "Alright, here we, go." he said placing the chicken and vegetables down on the counter. washing them all off, he began to cut them.

[clementine]

Epsilon smiled. "I want to help too!" He declared, moving next to Darren as he grabbed a nearby vegetable and began slicing it in time with his mate.

[praiseofblood]

Darren smiled and he and Eppi cooked in harmonius silence. Darren began sauteeing the vegetables and chicken together, instructing Eppi on what spices to add as the tortillas heated in the oven.

[clementine]

Epsilon was smiling, glad to be making food with Darren. With both of them working hard, the fajitas were done. Eppi grabbed some plates and the tortillas from the oven, beginning to put everything together.

"I'm glad you know how to cook." The teen said happily.

[praiseofblood]

Darren grinned. "A couple of good friends of mine taught me. They're both amazing cooks, they won't listen to me and open a restaurant though." he chuckled

[clementine]

"Oh, they should." Eppi replied, going all starry eyed. " That would be so cool. I'd love to know someone who owns a restaurant." This from the person who owned a resort.

[praiseofblood]

Darren smiled. "Yeah, me too. Think of all the free food!" he joked, placing the fajitas on a couple of plates.

"Hey, wanna watch some Earth movies?" he asked. "I have a ton of stuff from there." he smiled.

[clementine]

''Yes!" Epsilon cried excitedly. "I never actually seen one before, only read about them." The teen too the plates to where the movies would be watched. "What kind of movies do you have exactly?" He asked curiously.

[praiseofblood]

"Actually, I have tons of them. Comedy, action, thriller, horror, romantic comedy, spoofs, adventure, psychological thrillers," you name it.' he smiled, leading Eppi into his Earth-styled home theater.

"Some of my favorite movies are by Tim Burton, or they star Johnny Depp." he said.
