Based on the : "I just baked some cookies, do you want one?" starter.
Snow bakes some cookies and David and Emma enjoy them so much that they want more than they were given.
The smell of the freshly baked cookies filled the loft, David and Emma sat on the couch after being sent there by Snow when she had tried to eat some of the mixture from the bowl, David hadn't even been given that opportunity Snow knew him too well.
"I just baked some of the cookies," Snow called through from the kitchen, "Do you two want one?"
David and Emma shot up, and walked so fast they were almost running to the kitchen, David had to bite his lip to stop himself from laughing when Emma swerved in front of him so she could get there first. Once they both got there Snow held out a cookie and broke it in half, she handed one half to each of them.
Emma stood holding half of the cookie in her hand and stared at her mother with her mouth open, dumbfounded. "Erm, mom? This is only half a cookie."
"The rest are for the charity fair later."
"Come on Snow, you have about a million." David bargained.
"They are for charity," Snow reiterated, "if you two want more you can buy some tonight." She shooed them away and then packed the cookies up in containers and placed them safe on top of the cupboards.
Emma and David sat on the couch once again David had wolfed down his half of the cookie in a few bites whereas Emma sat staring at hers in disbelief. "Dad we-"
"Shhh," David hushed, "eat your cookie Em." He watched her take a bite and saviour the taste of the chocolate chip and peppermint mix. He looked up when he saw Snow enter the living room, he had heard her footsteps moving about the loft so had hushed his daughter so not to ruin the plan he was working on. He smiled when he noticed his wife's face, Snow had clearly just decorated the cookies with icing, she now had white powder on her face which contrasted with the blush on her cheeks caused by the warmth in the loft.
"I'm just going to get changed," she told them as she gestured down to the flour and icing powder which adorned her clothes, "I won't be long."
"I'll help you take the cookies down to the car once you've got changed."
"Thank you." She walked over to him and pressed a kiss to his lips some of the powder from her face transferred to his.
"Children present guys." Emma complained and jokingly covered her eyes.
"It's weird how she only thinks of herself as a child when she doesn't want to see us kiss." David whispered into his wife's ear before she could pull away from him.
Even once Snow had moved away to her and David's bedroom Emma kept her eyes covered, David rolled his eyes and pulled her hands down. "You ready to get some more cookies?" David whispered.
Emma's whole demeanour changed, from joking to straight backed and serious. "But mom said-"
"I know what your mom said." David told her quietly. "But I would like a couple more cookies and this is a two man job. Are you in or out?"
"In." Emma answered quickly. She couldn't help but wonder if this would have been what she and David would have gotten up to had he and Snow raised her.
"Okay, come on." He stood up and held his hand out to help her up. "We need to move quietly, I'll grab a container down, you grab four cookies, and then I'll put it back."
They quickly sneaked into the kitchen, they kept their footsteps light so that Snow couldn't hear them, David reached up on his tip toes to grab hold of the container he grabbed it and quickly opened it. Emma grabbed hold of two cookies for each of them, watching as David snapped the container shut and placed it back on top of the cupboard.
David smiled as Emma held out her hand to high five him, he hadn't expected her to be so overjoyed by their plan coming together, it was nice to see a smile of pure joy on her from doing so simple; he high fived her and excepted the cookies she handed him. As he did so they both heard a cough they jumped and turned around.
Snow stood there with one eyebrow raised, she couldn't be angry or as annoyed as she should have been, when she saw the two of them acting like father and daughter. "Emma Swan and David Nolan, I said that those weren't for you."
David bit his lip to stop the smile on his face from appearing back as he watched Snow fight one also. "Sorry my dear." He plastered a charming smile onto his face.
"Sorry mom." Emma looked sheepishly at Snow and then plastered the same smile onto her face that her father had. She hid her cookies behind her back.
Snow noticed Emma hiding the cookies behind her back and she rolled her eyes. "Those are the only cookies you two are getting. I'm taking these containers down to the car where you two can't take any more of them."
"Let me help you." David volunteered.
"No, I am not letting either of you have another opportunity to take any more of these. You two can, however clean up the kitchen." She held her hands out for David to hand her over the containers, he then rushed over to hold the door open for her to take them down to the car, while Emma started to clean up the kitchen.
"Hey Dad?" Emma said as she started to eat her cookie with one hand and clean half-heartedly with the other.
"Yeah kid?" David asked doing the same.
"I know we got caught but it was totally worth it."
"I think so too." David grinned at his daughter. The peppermint and chocolate in the cookie melted in his mouth and he decided that stealing cookies from Snow would be a pretty good tradition to start.
