Elias/Eloise | Lein's Kitchen
Elias and Eloise stared up at the ceramic jar. Their old master had one just like it, and they knew exactly what was kept in jars like that. They had only once before managed to sneak some of the treats from their master's jar, and ever since Elias had a craving for another cookie. Eloise was giving him that look again, he hated that look. It meant she was going to try and give him a hard time about it.
"You know--"
"Don't even," Eloise cut him off. Neither of the twins moved. Both remained perfectly still with their arms to their sides as they looked up at the jar. "Well, he did say anything, but it feels wrong," she mumbled, more to herself than her brother. After a few more moments of silence she turned to the boy, "Okay, lift me up."
Elias smirked to himself as he crouched low to let the girl up on his shoulders, once she was up the two inched their way towards the cupboards and stretched for the cookies. It was just out of reach-- barely-- Eloise could brush the tips of her fingers against it. Elias was struggling to stay standing under her. The girl was already standing on his shoulders, there wasn't much more he could do to help reach their goal.
"My god, have you gotten--"
"I am not fat," she snarled before giving him a boot in the cheek. The two nearly fell over with Elias' stumble. "Hey! Be careful!"
"Just grab the jar!"
The two were unaware that the man and the other boy had joined them in the room. Of course, until the old man cleared his throat-- making the two stumbled to the floor.
(I had to. Cassy made me do it. [excuses] *hides*.)
