Inconvenient Flame

I was waiting outside my car for Poppy to come outside. When she finally walked out of her house, she was holding a brown paper bag.

"Okay, what's up with the funeral clothes?" Poppy asked inspecting my all-black outfit.

"I can do anything I want on my birthday right?" I grinned at her.

She shook her head at me. "I brought you a surprise," she said waving the bag at me.

"Cookies?" I asked, trying to sniff them.

"No, it's better than that." I reached for the bag and she pulled it away, stuffing it inside her purse before I could reach it. "If you like what we do today, then you can have it."

She smiled. "Well, you'll watch me eat it?"

"So, this is your attempt of forcing me to have a great time?"

"Was it that obvious?" She grabbed the car keys from my hand. "Since it's your birthday, you have the privilege of me being your personal driver today."
