Nice Pick-Me-Up

Neville woke up with an ache in his shoulders and a kink in his neck. He also woke up to find Millicent's head resting on his chest, her damp shirt clinging to his and her hair matted to face. The building had stopped shaking, which was a good thing. Meant the fighting had moved on.

"It stopped an hour ago. I didn't want to wake you," Millicent said tiredly.

"Thought you were sleeping," Neville replied.

"Dozed a bit, not much though," Millicent pushed herself up and away from him. "I did some scrounging around when you were asleep. Came up with a dozen or so chocolate bars, but not much more."

She reached behind her shoulder to the broken pantry shelf just above their heads. Shiny aluminum foiled chocolate bars picked up in the fading light. She handed him two of the bars, her fingers brushing his. Millicent looked down at her hands.

"Sorry if they're a bit melted. I had to hold on to them for a while before I spotted the shelf."

"That's okay, I like melted chocolate," Neville said thickly.
