A knock at Oaklyn's door caught her attention. Curiously, she got up to inspect who it was, opening her door to find no one there. She immediately thought of every horror movie until she spotted the plate of Christmas cookies on her porch. There were Santa's, snowmen and Christmas tree shaped cookies that had Oaklyn's stomach growling immediately.
She knew who brought them without even seeing them and there was no way she was eating those alone. With a smile, she picked the plate up, marched over to Maeve's door and knocked. It took a couple minutes but finally Maeve peeked through the crack of her open door.
"H-Hi Oaklyn," she squeaked, pretending not to know why the girl was there. "W-What's up?"
"I got some cookies, want to share?" Oaklyn smiled at the blush that took over Maeve's face.
"Uh...o-ok."
And just like that Maeve failed in discreetly giving Oaklyn a batch of Christmas cookies. It was ok though, perhaps that was for the best.
Cookies tasted best with company.
