Mercury Poisoning!

When the next morning arrived, Steven was the first to get up. Everything seemed to be normal. The lights were all off, the fire had died down and there was a chill in the air. He stretched and shivered a bit but he needed to use the restroom so he pried himself off the couch and went to use the facilities.

April rose a few moments later and yawned. She shivered slightly and scooted to the fireplace in her sleeping bag to try to start it back up with banked coals. Once the wood was burning again she left it alone to take the chill out of the air.

She got up and stretched a bit more and sat on the couch Steven used as a bed and stared at the fire. As she sat there she all of a sudden started hearing a faint buzz. She had a feeling what it was so she tested the wall socket again with her phone charger. This time, it blinked to life and started charging her phone. Finally, the electricity was working, but she'd still need to bring a roofer and an electrician to the house to test things and make sure everything was ok. She'd need to search for those on her phone using Wi-Fi for now until she got the 'net hooked up at the house.

Steven came back and sat down next to her. She told him the electricity was on finally and he nodded. "Go out for some breakfast?" he suggested. "Then I should be getting back home." he said sadly. She nodded to both statements and they went off to grab a late breakfast.
"Smile, let the world wonder what you're up to."
