Cosette tried to keep up with Aranea's work pace, but in the end Cosette was just slower and even though there weren't that many boxes Aranea helped Cosette bring in those as well. Naturally Cosette let the woman do that, it would've been silly to make Aranea wait for Cosette to finish carrying the boxes, but still Cosette felt a bit embarrassed. Embarrassed and grateful.Cosette set down her last box and looked around, Aranea had even been so kind to arrange the furniture. Although some of it wasn't arranged how Cosette wanted it it was the thought that counted, and Cosette felt touched.
"I think so as well. Thank you for your hard work."
Cosette smiled happily and sat down on a box nearby, that she knew had just clothes.
"Oh no, it's okay, I ca-"
And that was when Cosette's stomach rumbled, as if agreeing with Aranea about lunch time approaching. Cosette blushed ever so slightly from embarrassment and chuckled, standing up and stretching her back a little.
"Yes yes, I hear you, my stomach. Thankfully I came prepared for this."
Cosette grinned and walked over to a cooler, that had also been in the truck. Inside Cosette had some iced tea, lemon meringue pie, pasta salad and some generously stuffed sandwiches. All were made by Cosette herself. Enough for two and a bit extra. Cosette turned to smile at Aranea, showing the contents of the cooler.
"I was hoping to have a little indoor picnic with you, so I made these last night. Don't worry, I made the ice tea caffeine free."
Cosette also opened one of the boxes after looking around trying to find the right one, and she pulled out a picnic basket, an old one that was made from straw, coupled with a blanket and dishes inside it. It was an impulse purchase, one of Cosette's first ones after being freed. As a child she had absolutely adored picnics, and Cosette was planning to make as much use from this basket as she could in the future, and now.
