Rating: PG
Another year gone by. Another year further from the hopes and dreams they had as children and another year closer to the inevitable end that every human and mutant must face. It had quickly become apparent to Pietro that he did not enjoy birthdays as much as he had when they were younger. Of course, he still enjoyed spending the special time with his sister, celebrating their existence together, but it did nothing to sway him from the notion that he was getting older. Old people were slow and an inconvenience. Pietro could not even imagine having to suffer an old age where he would, god forbid, slow down.
Then again, with the luck the world had had lately, perhaps he would never even have to worry about that.
Still, birthdays were a tradition amongst the twins ever since they were children. It wasn't a day to let slip by and so, doing his best to avoid everyone else that day, he took the colorfully wrapped package under his arm and ran down to Wanda's room, which took him all of a second. Honestly, why would he even bother doing anything slow, when he could get it down quickly.
Knocking on the closed door out of habit, Pietro didn't wait for a response before opening the door. It wasn't as if they had anything to hide from each other and he was never one to waste time to begin with. "Hello, sister," he said, stepping into her room and hiding the package behind his back. "Happy Birthday."
