Summary: "You have my attention, Micky," Davy remarked.

Lying supine on the floor, Micky clutched at his abdomen. Now and then, he'd let out a small, sickly groan.

"You have my attention, Micky," Davy remarked. "What's the trouble, this time?"

Peter smiled, picking up a box from the kitchen counter. It was shaped like a heart, and had several empty wrappers in it. "Valentine's Day was only a few days ago," he put in. "And we've had a lot of chocolate in the Pad, ever since."

"Aha! That explains it," Davy laughed, doing the math. "Someone's eyes were larger than his stomach, and now he's paying the price."
