And because Ben is simply that kinda sympathetic spirit, he'd probably show up about fifteen minutes later with a great big thermos filled with Mexican hot chocolate. Wonderfully warm, creamy, cane-sugared, cinnamon-spiced, chocolaty goodness with a hint of nutmeg. It warms the heart and the bones - just what someone could use after such a terrible experience.
"How'd you kno- Wait. I forgot about the Good Neighbor System again, didn't I?"
Ben rolls his eyes with a smile that belies the expression. "And it helps that I was getting ready to come over anyways. The hot chocolate was going to be a treat for later - perfect follow-up to a day spent ice skating - but I felt this was more important. Think the rest of the Witches 5 are gonna show up? After all, we got Pyrrha* back."
(*For that alone, Ben had to make a trip to the grocery store for a bulk-pack of kleenex. )
May as well add that scene to the story...
