Canon Nath. & Mary 🤢 Fanon Nath. & Mary🥴
How Nathan discovered that his girlfriend should never, ever, be in the kitchen unless it was for tea and two minute noodles
At first her brother, Stuart, had warned him about how horrible she was when it came to preparing dishes and just cooking in general, even simple things like toast was out of the question
It took them moving into their first home, a studio apartment that was meant to last them till Mary finished studying whatever medical course she chose
Only, after a meet up with Lola to write up a contract for both her and two others of her choice to sign
He came back home tired, was planning to sleep it off after seeing how far Mary was with her studying. That was the plan, however his girlfriend wasn’t studying
Nathan hopes he was delusional from being exhausted, didn’t like the idea of the possibility that the kitchen was on fire
Mary looked over her shoulder at the door closing, grinned as Nathan made his way over and pulled her aware from the fire
Gave her a look that said they’ll talk about this later and got to grabbing as much of their shit as he could
Having to give her another look before she started moving, reaching only for all her school work and the important books that she needed
Glared when she pulled out her polaroid camera to take a selfie with the fire that was growing
Mary left the apartment before he did, pulling the fire alarm and yawning into her hand as others in the building left their homes and evacuated
Nathan had Kengo on the phone when he and Mary had left, asking for a temporary place they could stay in and was given an address before turning to stare as she looked at her nails, waiting for the polaroid to show the photo she took
“Mind telling me how you started a fire and why you just stood there instead of trying to put it out?” He demanded, pulling her towards their car to dump all their things in the backseat before getting in the drivers seat
He had to wait a moment for her to get into the passenger seat and even then, had to wait a moment longer before her phone was in his face
Mary had called her brother and was staring at Nathan amused as Stuart sighed on the other end
“Mary has told me what happened, and all I have to say is, I told you so.”
And that is the story of how Mary got banned from stepping foot into the kitchen unless Nathan was around
He did try to teach her how to cook but it always ended with flames whenever he turned his back for a moment
