The camera was already rolling by the time the latest ridiculous TikTok recipe came out of the oven. The kitchen was a disaster—mixing bowls everywhere, flour dusted across the counter, and both of you trying not to laugh as you attempted the first bite.

Edmondx looked over at you with a grin that made it obvious this wasn’t just another recording session. “If this goes viral, I’m blaming you,” he joked, nudging your shoulder before leaning over and pressing a quick kiss to your cheek. A second later he did it again to the other side, laughing as you gave him an exaggerated look of disbelief.

“Now everyone’s gonna clip that part,” he teased, pretending to focus on the camera again while trying to hide his smile. The comments section was going to have a field day.

You both continued filming as if nothing had happened, but every now and then he’d glance your way with that same amused expression, standing just a little closer than before. The challenge had become less about the food and more about the two of you joking around together, making the video feel natural—and leaving viewers wondering whether there was something more than friendship behind all the playful moments caught on camera.
