This is a super random one but I thought I might as well just through it in here.

Like I said, I knew how to bake and cook from a young age so I knew how to make good stuff.

One day I was in the kitchen making the batter for some pancakes when Alex came over with Atlas AGAIN FOR THE HUNDREDTH TIME. I was sick of him. I remember feeling my blood boil as I saw his stupidly cute smirk. Alex came into the kitchen and ruffled my hair just like any older brother would do to annoy the other one. Atlas laughed. Urgh that laugh made me weak...
"Need help?" (Alex)
I nodded, understanding it was only Alex who wanted to help... that was until I saw my brother signal Atlas to come over and help, jeez I couldn't get rid of his dude could I?

All went well and all three were getting along great before my brother went upstairs to his room to look for something... leaving me and Atlas alone. It was like my brother was doing this intentionally, leaving me and Atlas alone. Together.

As soon as my brother left, the tension broke due to Atlas grabbing flour in his hand and smearing it on my face. THIS ASSHOLE was the only thing going through my mind as I grabbed flour back and smeared it on his face making both of us look like clowns. It was hilarious actually. We both laughed as we saw each others faces covered in flour.
"You're a jerk!" I say with a laugh making him laugh harder. It was a funny moment... a sweet one actually or maybe I was just hallucinating.

I walk past him and rush to the bathroom as I wash my face of flour, feeling refreshed as I looked in the mirror and saw my face was now clean. As I walked out of the bathroom, boom, bumped straight into his chest. I couldn't help but feel embarrassed.
He only laughed and ruffled my hair making me nudge him playfully, he knew I hated HIM ruffling my hair.
"I liked you better with the flour on your face "flour clown"" (Atlas)
That was the stupidest nickname I've ever heard but I'll give it to him, it was the first time we actually got along.
