Rating: PG
The coffee shop on Saturday morning was one of Caroline’s favorite places to go. There was no cheerleading practice to run off to at the high school and she purposefully didn’t schedule any gymnastic classes at that time either. The break from the busy week was needed and while the small shop was usually crowded in the morning, everyone wanting to grab their cup and cookie before heading off to wherever they might be going, Caroline had learned that getting there at around 10:30 meant the place was practically empty.
Charlotte was napping in her carseat that Caroline had set down on the floor beside her while Hope was set up next to her in the booth with paper and crayons. The little girl was happily scribbling away, making far better pictures than Caroline had ever done at that age, and she wondered if being artistic could be inherited genetically. “That’s very pretty,” she murmured, earning a big smile from Hope before her daughter went back to drawing.
Caroline sipped her peppermint mocha frappuccino, thankful that the holiday favorite was back, while glancing around the shop to do a bit of people watching. Elena was around but she hadn’t seen much of her friend. Which really wasn’t surprising. Damon and Elena were practically attached at the hip and Caroline knew that would happen if Elena ever turned up.
“Cookie?” Hope asked, and Caroline mentally cursed for forgetting to get their usual treat.
She peaked down at Charlotte to ensure the baby was still asleep and headed back to the counter to order the usual cookie snack, making sure she kept the girls in her sights the whole time.
