(Lol!)

Shortly after Evelyn fell asleep, Peter woke up again. Seeing she was sleeping, he stifled the urge to laugh, and merely smiled amusedly. About time she went to sleep.. he thought, before folding his arms and closing his eyes once again.

Ev, unfortunately, didn't wake until late the next morning, when she jerked so badly that she almost fell backwards. "Oh, gosh..." she whispered. "How long have I been asleep?"

Ed suddenly jerked awake, breathing heavily and sweating. He looked to the side of his bed for Felicity....or at least some water....he was so cold....(the chills.)

"All night." Peter said, glancing over at Evelyn.

Felicity, who had been sleeping sitting propped up next to the bed, jerked awake and winced slightly at a sharp pain in her head. Ignoring it, she stood up and poured a glass of water for Edmund, and handed it to him.

"Thanks," Edmund said, in a voice so shaky it was clear that he had the chills.


"Oh, gosh, I'm sorry..." said Ev as she stretched. She yawned. "I was tired...you in any pain?"

"You're welcome.." Felicity said hoarsely, then she quickly cleared her throat. "Do you need another blanket?"

Peter shook his head a little. "Surprisingly, no."

"That would help," said Ed with a slight smile.


Ev nodded, then said, "Well, that's a good sign," and put her elbow on the nightstand, leaning the side of her head on her hand. "Sorry," she said, "I'm just not used to getting that much sleep, and the more I get, the more tired I am when I wake up.."

Ed smiled.

I saw you look away
Is what you've seen too much to take, or are you blind and seeing nothing?
(I saw you run) I saw you run away
Is what I've done too much to take or are you scared of being nothing?

Felicity nodded and hid a wince, then went to the foot of the bed and picked up one of the spare blankets, and proceeded to cover Edmund with it.

Peter nodded slightly and chuckled. "It's alright..no need to apologize."

Ed eyed her warily. "Are you feeling alright?"

Ev yawned again, saying, "Stubid yawns...hah," she added as she finished it. She looked at him, then laughed.

"Yeah, fine.." Felicity liked, turning away as she realized her cheeks were slightly flushed. Great...now a fever to add to my problems..

Peter shook his head in amusement, then yawned. "Now you've got me doing it!"

Ev shrugged, then said, "Sorry, but you know, they say yawns are contagious..."


"You're sick," Ed said flatly. "I knew it."

"I know, I know.." Peter said, sitting up straighter.

"No, I'm not." Felicity said, voice barely above a whisper. And now I'm losing my voice..just wonderful..

"Yes, you are," said Ed. "That's the way I felt two days ago."


Ev smiled softly, looking up at him, for once running low on words to say. Might've been 'cause she just woke up, or was it....?

Felicity sighed, then sneezed suddenly and winced.

Peter smiled a little as he looked down at Evelyn. "You're awfully quiet all of a sudden.."

Ev smiled her half-smile, then turned a microshade of pink and looked away for a moment, pretending to reach for something. "Do you have any books up here?" she asked after a moment, to fill the silence. "I've been getting bored witless..."

Peter nodded a little. "Yeah, there's a lot from the library on that bookshelf over there." he said, motioning towards the bookcase close to the window.
