"Are you sure?" he said, his brows furrowing. "Let me at least do somethin' for you, Tag!"

"Not tonight. Tonight you just rest." Tag put a hand on his arm, hoping to calm him down.

"I'm not going to win today, am I?" said Specs, sighing sadly as he placed his hand on top of hers.

"No." She said honestly, smiling.

Specs sighed, shaking his head at her. "Alright, alright. But once I'm better, we're doing something, ok?"

"If you insist." She replied quietly, smiling down at him.
"Now," she said, patting his hand. "You get some more rest, and I'll have some tea ready for you later on." She bent down and placed a soft kiss on his forehead.

Once she bent down, he gently squeezed her hand, wishing he could kiss her. It definitely was not fun being sick. When she left the boys' bunkroom, however, Specs muttered, "I feel like a baby."

Tag poked her head into the bunkroom every 15 minutes or so, making sure Specs was sleeping soundly. It was until mid-evening, when boys started trickling into the house, when Tag brought up a mug of fresh tea and gave Specs a slight shake.
"Wake up." She whispered, tapping his shoulder.

Specs grumbled, turning over before realizing that there were more people in the bunkroom this time... and with Tag standing over him. He immediately sat up, rubbing his eyes as he reached over for his glasses.
"I fell asleep again?" he muttered, knowing that the boys would later give him an earful about Tag being by his bedside.

"Yes, but you need the sleep." She replied, carrying on in a whisper. She set the tea down on the bedside table.
"I'll, uh, let you rest until tomorrow. Be sure to drink all of that." She said, gesturing to the tea, before straightening and walking out of the bunkroom.

Unable to even get a word in, Specs simply drank his tea before plopping down on his bed yet again and falling asleep.
Specs woke up early the next morning, even before any of the newsboys started getting ready. All the sleeping he did the day before made him feel well-rested and much better. He stretched, lazily standing up and walking to the washroom. Finally ready, he went downstairs towards the lobby and sat down on the couch, not too sure what to do next.

It wasn't much longer when Tag made her way downstairs, worrying that Specs was in bed, worse than he was yesterday, dying a slow and painful death...
She stopped at the end of the stairs and sighed.

Specs was in the midst of cleaning his glasses when he noticed a Tag-like figure by the stairs. "What's wrong?" he asked once he heard her sigh.
((Shower! Be back in 15-20!))

Tag jumped, startled.
"Oh, you gave me a fright!" She said, her hand over her heart. She was relieved, however, that he was up and about and not dying.
"Are you feeling all right, then?"

"Sorry, didn't mean to scare you," laughed Specs, standing up and putting his glasses on. "I'm a lot better thanks to you."
