Specs frowned. "Is the medicine supposed to be doing that?" he asked, already planning out the rest of his day so he can stay with her as long as he possibly could.

"Medicine doesn't work instantly. Unfortunately. He just said that's how pneumonia works." She frowned even more, resting her head on his shoulder.

"I'll stay with you," he said pointedly. He didn't want to leave her alone when he knew she was going to be suffering with pneumonia.

"You must leave at a decent hour at night, though. And only come back when you're done selling," she instructed him in the best 'that's final' tone of voice she could muster.

Specs nodded dutifully. "Yes, ma'am!"

"What?" laughed Specs. "I'll do what you say and leave when you want even though I'd rather be here the whole time." He smiled, gently kissing her forehead.

Tag simply nodded, feeling lucky and overwhelmed and embarrassed at his words. Only her family had ever acted like this and said things like this to her.
She fiddled with the button on Specs' sleeve, trying to comprehend her whole situation.

Specs watched her as she wordlessly played with his shirt buttons. "Penny for your thoughts?"

"What am I gonna do with a penny?"

Specs shrugged, smirking. "Or you can just tell me for free."

Tag opened her mouth to speak, but quickly closed it again. She wasn't used to telling someone everything that was on her mind. She wasn't sure if she was comfortable yet... But. It was Specs.
"The last someone to say things to me like that was my sister."

"You have a sister?" asked Specs gently. He was surprised he didn't know about this. Of course, they hadn't really talked about it before. He noted her behavior and her tone, realizing that she probably dealt with something horrible.

"I did," she corrected him. He surely remembered the time she had told him her nightmare with the fire.

Specs simply held her closer. He had a feeling it had something to do about that afternoon in the park. He'd been too scared to bring it up in case Tag didn't want to share.
