"Hey Leah." She knew that Leah was Angel's best friend, but AJ really liked the girl too. "Cozy down here, isn't it?" She stretched her little legs and looked over to what Leah was carrying forgetting for a moment that she had asked her a question.
"It is actually. They were supposed to be chocolate chip cookies but they all kind of merged together." She shrugged her shoulders. They should taste fine though. It was just one giant cookie instead of a dozen now. "Sure. I've actually been needing to get somebody to do that." Cookies for pancakes? That sounded like a pretty even trade. "Trade?"
AJ handed over both containers. The one of the left was the one that she had made in the workshop and she wondered if Leah would be able to tell the difference. "What do you think?"
Leah was surprised to wonder for a quarter of a second whether this was really AJ or not. She was the young triplets' good friends, and it should be super easy for her to tell the three apart.
Jerking the uneasy feeling away from her, the Hufflepuff nodded.
"Yeah, I should come here more often. It's really close to my common room too!" Hehe, she felt sorry for AJ, who lived up at the high Gryffindor tower. One small good thing about being a Badger - the KITCHENS.
The second year nodded understandingly at AJ's explanation of the chocolate chip cookies (yum!).
"At least it's better looking than this." Leah showed the girl her 'ugly' pancakes. Both were not in perfect circles, and had a couple holes in them. She laughed, blushing slightly at her cooking skill. Slamming her palm down at the ground, she said in a mockingly serious voice,
"Deal."
Telling AJ to wait a minute, Leah rushed back to the middle of the kitchen and grabbed two plates and a bottle of syrup. When she was back at the fireplace, she sat down and transferred the pancakes onto a plate each. Then she squirted syrup onto the pancakes and wrote a letter A on the left one, a B on the right one. Ha! A was kitchen-made and B was made up in the workshop early this morning.
She reached out for the containers and handed AJ the plates.
"Hereeee you go!" she said, smiling. Leah opened the cookie container enthusiastically.
"I'll have to try these lovely cookies to find out!" She took a chunk out of the left
cake and another out of the right one.
Popping the first cookie inside her mouth, she felt the chocolate chip making it all crunchy and crispy. She could not help but take another bite of it before trying the next one. This one tasted more like the ones her mother made, but slightly different.
"These all taste awesome, AJ." The older girl complimented.
