Partners in crime

Aria flipped her small hair, "Stating the obvious, my dear. But I'll take it."

Penny laughed, "An angel with a demon's mind."

Aria started walking towards the castle, "And this demon is thinking of telling dad that you were wandering around in the night."

Penny also walked beside her, "Well, I happen to be an adult, and won't get as much scolding as a seven year old for wandering around at night."

Aria gave a devilish smile and said, "I won't tell if you won't." She offered Penny her hand.

Penny shook the little hand and said, "Partners in crime."

The two ladies then quietly sneaked into the castle and back to Aria's room. As Aria got into bed, Penny turned around to leave. Aria grabbed onto her dress, "Stay here tonight, Penny." Aria said, making such cute puppy- eyes that Penny's heart almost melted. But she steeled herself and said, "I can't, Miss Aria. But you will definitely see me when you wake up, the first thing in the morning."

Aria still didn't let go of her dress and pouted, "No, I don't want to be alone."

Penny sighed and said, "Alright. But I'm not sleeping in your bed."

As Aria opened her mouth to protest, Penny beat her to it, "I know you don't mind, but I do. So I'll just get some sheets and make a bed here, next to you bed."

As Penny went to the cupboard, it suddenly flew open and sheets, pillows and blankets flew out from it.

Penny turned to look at Aria who was sitting on her bed quickly swaying her fingers. Soon, a bed right next to Aria's bed was ready on the floor. Penny got into it and Aria got into her bed.

As they lay there, Penny said, "Miss Aria, can I ask you something?"

Aria: "Sure."

Penny: "Will you be the godmother for my child?"

Aria leaned over her bed to stare at Penny's face, looking really happy. Aria: "Really?"

Penny smiled, "Really."

Aria laid back on the bed and said, "I'm too young to be a godmother. I'll be it's godsister."

Penny: "Okay, that's even better."

The two then fell asleep in Aria's room, with a smile on there faces. With no idea about what the future held for them.

The next morning, Penny awoke Aria. She shook her and said, "Miss Aria, it's already very late. Get up, otherwise you'll have to skip breakfast."

Aria sat up, rubbing her eyes. She looked around the room and saw that Penny had already folded the bed she had made last night. Penny seemed to have already showered and was wearing different clothes.

Aria: "How can you get up so early that you even had time to go shower and change your clothes?"

Penny chuckled, "Practice Miss Aria. Practice. Now come on. Up you get."

After Aria had a bath and was getting dressed, she said, half asleep, "I'm going to talk to mom and dad today about my little sister. Well, I hope it's a girl."

Penny: "Miss Aria, could you do me a favour? Please don't mention Sebastian to master and madam."

Aria, still not able to open her eyes properly, "Who?"
