Adelia walked through the hallway, tiptoeing her way to the kitchen. She tried her hardest to sneak past the other servants quarters, hearing the loud snoring of Bardroy through the door. It was easy enough, quickly walking past the door and trying to avoid any creaky floorboards that might be covering the floor. It didn't take long before she reached the door of the kitchen, opening it and listening to it creak.

She searched the cupboards, looking for anything quick to eat or make before she got caught in the kitchen by Sebastian or Lilith. She knows that demons don't need sleep, as well as the fact that they always seem to know what's going on at any time. After all, she couldn't count the amount of times Lilith had caught her in the kitchen after dark.

'Damn, with how much Lord Phantomhive likes sweets, you'd think he'd have a ton of them in the kitchen.' Adelia pouted. She kept moving, looking through every drawer she could find to see if she could find anything to eat. However she did note the lack of silverware in the drawers, the only thing left being the silver spoons. 

She eventually gave up looking, opting to sit at the table instead. She sat for a minute, before actually looking at the ingredients in the house. There was flour, some sugar, vanilla, eggs.... yes, she knew what to make. 

Adelia was busy mixing the ingredients together when she hear the door creak open, immediately turning around to see whoever was trying to enter the kitchen. The moment she turned around, she saw a mop of blonde hair, along with a pair of blue eyes that could strike the soul.

"Finny? What in the world are you doing up at this hour?"

Finny smiles sheepishly as he stepped further into the kitchen. "I heard you walking in the hallways. I thought something was wrong, so I wanted to check up on you to make sure you weren't in any trouble."

"How could you hear me over Bardroy's loud snores?" Adelia asked, giggling.

"I've learned to tune him out over the years of being here. Besides, I have pretty good hearing otherwise."

Adelia giggled, placing the bowl down on the counter before going to greet him. "Well, I was planning on making a small cake, would you like one?"

"Of course I would!"
