A whole day was a pretty long time to be away from home, when you'd only just returned home, when you'd just gotten married, when you were alone in a city. Frustrated as she might have been, she wasn't going to miss out on a party. Not because she felt like celebrating, this was the farthest she'd felt like celebrating in weeks, but it gave her a chance to see if maybe, just maybe, there would be someone else in this city she'd recognize.

It was a pretty big hope. But she'd bet on bigger miracles before.

So it really, really wouldn't surprise anyone who knew her that she'd found a chocolate fountain and parked herself beside it.

The only thing that would make this better would be, well, if it'd been at home.
