They weren't just 'siblings'. As Papa always put it 'They were twins and as twins they were supposed to get along better and be closer', yeah right! The only thing Vera and him ever seemed to agree on was getting into some form of trouble.
Vasco placed another piece of chocolate into his melt allowing it to melt across his tongue before swallowing. "The we stand a higher chance of doing what we want." If they didn't get caught slipping away first. He shrugged a shoulder. "Depends on if you want to risk having him say no and then having him keep a close eye on us." See, he already knew how that worked. Whenever Papa told them no, he watched them like a hawk making it almost impossible to slip away and do anything that they wanted to do. Almost.
"So.. do you want to risk it? Cause I don't." He wanted to have fun. Not waste even more time standing around chatting about it. She hadn't even imagined that the noise cancelling headphones had been because of her noise level, rather she figured he just wanted an easier time ignoring her and Scoot. Not that she didn't STILL bother him at EVERY single available moment. Wasn't she just the bestest sister that ever existed!? WASN'T SHE?
By Papa's logic, she supposed she and Vasco WERE closer because of their age together, but not really by choice and only to wreak havoc together. And only when they weren't wreaking havoc ON each other, as Vera tended to like to do as well.
It suddenly occurred to her and drew her attention that he CURRENTLY had chocolate. So Vera eyed him and the piece he put in his mouth, before poking his arm gently. "Do you have anymore of that???" And was he willing to share because chocolate sounded delectable. Forgetting there was an entire stand of food RIGHT THERE and she had some pocket change from Papa to get something. One track mind. Saw chocolate, wanted chocolate now. "I reaaaally want to make a firework..." And everything he was saying was correct.
Once the actual question was posed and Vasco's opinion shared, Vera nodded her head vigorously in approval. "I agree. I don't want to risk Papa not letting us. So... we sneak away?"
