Third Floor Common Room - Sunday Morning

[tricksy-spy.livejournal.com]

Aly had woken up very, very hungry.  And she didn't want to wake up Mommy.  That would be bad. 

So instead she was very, very sneaky - she was going to be a spy after all and Daddy said she could be pretty too! - and crept out of the room until she found one of the big rooms with food in there.   She was awfully disappointed not to see Bridge making 'paghetti this time or Auntie Parkie with food though.

But there was food in the cupboards.  She knew it.  And that was why there was a weetiny blond girl carefully scaling the counter to get to the top cupboards where she just knew the good food was kept.

Molly caught her no problem. "Are we looking for anything special?" she asked as she lifted Aly up so that she could reach the top cupboards.

"Cupcakes?" Aly asked. "Or cake? All the good food lives at the top." She nodded even as she continued to try to fit her whole head into the cupboard.

Molly snickered quietly. "Does it really? I never knew that!"

[tricksy-spy.livejournal.com]

"Uh huh! That's where grown ups put it so kids can't find it."

[bruiser-in-pink.livejournal.com]

"Any luck?"

[tricksy-spy.livejournal.com]

"No," Aly said poutily.

[bruiser-in-pink.livejournal.com]

"Awwwww." Molly lowered Aly down, but only until she could rest the small girl on her hip. "Do you want to try looking somewhere else?"

[tricksy-spy.livejournal.com]

Aly looked at Molly with big eyes. "D'you know where good food is?"

[bruiser-in-pink.livejournal.com]

Molly tilted her head and pretended to think. "Hmmm, I don't know about cake, but I bet you we could find some ice cream in the freezer."

[tricksy-spy.livejournal.com]

"Ooooo, yes please! Maybe there could be stawberry?"

[bruiser-in-pink.livejournal.com]

"Maybe! Let's go see!" Molly carried Aly over to the freezer and held her up so that she could pull it open.

[tricksy-spy.livejournal.com]

Aly tried to climb into the freezer because the ice cream was worth the cold.

"There's choklit!" She called out. "Oooh! Strawberry!"

[bruiser-in-pink.livejournal.com]

Molly supported Aly so that she wouldn't fall back out of the freezer. "Ooo! Should we have both?"

[tricksy-spy.livejournal.com]

"Uh huh!" Aly tried to grab both cartons and ended up hugging them to her chest carefully. Her teeth started chattered. "C-c-c-cold."

[bruiser-in-pink.livejournal.com]

Molly quickly carried Aly over to the table so she could set the cartons down.

[tricksy-spy.livejournal.com]

Aly dropped the cartons on the table then turned around to hug Molly. Because she was cold still and this seemed the best way to fix it.

"You're the bestest grownup ever," she said, hoping that would make the cold hug better. "'Cept Mommy and Daddy a'course."

[bruiser-in-pink.livejournal.com]

Molly was perfectly fine with the cold hug and hugged Aly back to help warm her up.

"Thanks! Third behind you mom and dad is pretty good," Molly said, sounding impressed. "You're a pretty neat little girl yourself."

[tricksy-spy.livejournal.com]

Aly beamed at her. "Thankyou." She bounced. "Oh! I found the mean girl again. But then I kicked her!"

[bruiser-in-pink.livejournal.com]

"I'm sure she deserved it," Molly said with a nod. "Are we still going to spy on her first or do you want to pick someone else?"

Since Aly was getting squirmy, Molly set her down in a chair at the table and went to go get bowls and spoons for the ice cream.

"We went spying last night," Aly said in an apparent non sequitur. "We found stuffed toys!"

[bruiser-in-pink.livejournal.com]

"Oooo! That sounds like fun. I'm sorry I missed it," Molly said with appropriate enthusiasm as she started to scoop out the ice cream. "Is one scoop of each okay?"

[tricksy-spy.livejournal.com]

"Me and the black and white girl who climbed in the window did. She has lockpicks too!" Aly watched the scooping process. "Big scoops?"

[bruiser-in-pink.livejournal.com]

"Black and white girl?" Miho was the only black and white person that Molly had ever met, but she'd heard about the one that looked like Rory. "I think I may know who you mean. She's cool."

Molly had been planning on keeping the scoops a reasonable size, but when she saw Aly's expression she grinned and made the scoops bigger. "How's that?"

[tricksy-spy.livejournal.com]

"She is!" Aly agreed. "She's gonna a ninha and I'm gonna a spy. We're UNSTOPPABLE!"

"That's perfect," she announced, reaching for the bowl and a spoon. "Thankyou!"

[bruiser-in-pink.livejournal.com]

Molly grinned at Aly's plan. "A ninha and a spy, huh? What will you do first?" She got some ice cream for herself because, hey, she wouldn't want to let Aly eat alone, right?
