Excerpt #10/#11

So you might've noticed that I was MIA yesterday as far as an excerpt goes. Well fear not, for I am back. Rather than do two separate excerpts, I'm merging the two that would've been posted yesterday/today into one.

After a few minutes, as the inside of the car began to warm a little, her hunger won over her desire to stay warm and she reached back, wrapping her hand around a half-frozen bottle of Coca-Cola.

She ate far faster than she’d intended to, only really realizing how hungry she was once she’d eaten one and a half cups already. Once she’d eaten all eight cups, she turned her attention to the bottle of pop. It didn’t look frozen, but she knew that it would slush up the second she cracked it open. Still, her mouth felt like the Sahara Desert and she was left with no real choice. She slowly uncapped the pop and swore loudly when it fizzed all down her front.
