Soft sighs were heard in the night as Alan and Tin-Tin met in Alan's bedroom for another night time romp. They'd tried giving the condoms and contraceptives back to Virgil but the older brother adamantly refused the two little boxes, insisting that should the two teens feel the urge to have sex that they do it safely and utilize the required tools to prevent pregnancy. Quietly, Virgil told the two teens that he was aware of them fooling around on occasions before he'd given them the condoms and contraceptives back and he'd frowned on their being stupid and impulsive. The two teens bowed their heads in embarrassment and shame before Virgil smiled at them and told them it happened, but he'd prefer it if it didn't happen again.
It wasn't long after that that Alan and Tin-Tin figured out the better times that the two of them could get together and fool around without being interrupted.
Alan panted as he rested on his forearms. Letting his head fall forward, he relaxed his sweaty brow against Tin-Tin's shoulder. Nimble fingers fluffed his hair back from his face and when he lifted his head, Alan's brilliant blue eyes met with Tin-Tin's chocolate brown doe eyes.
"You were amazing Alan." Tin-Tin whispered before she kissed Alan deeply.
The kiss took Alan's breath away momentarily, but once his brain rewired itself; Alan returned the kiss but with equal emotion. Slowly Alan rolled off of Tin-Tin and he'd chuckled at her growl of frustration.
"I've got to change Tin, you know we can't use the same one. Virgil said…" Alan said as he prepared to remove the used condom.
"Can we please not talk about any of your brothers while we're doing this Al? Please? It really ruins the mood." Tin-Tin asked as she rolled over, pinning Alan to the bed. "Besides, I know of something else we can do that's equally as fun."
"What's that?" Alan asked as he ran his hands up and down Tin-Tin's curvy body. Despite them being only fifteen, Tin-Tin had a great set of…assets.
"How about a moonlit walk on the beach, just the two of us…alone?" Tin-Tin suggested, winking at Alan seductively. Alan bit his lip with an eye roll before he nodded at Tin-Tin's suggestion.
… … … … … …
Over the next couple of weeks, Alan and Tin-Tin both would meet in Alan's bedroom before they'd sneak out his bedroom window in order to avoid tripping the front door alarm. One of the times however that Tin-Tin had entered Alan's bedroom for their appointed meeting, she'd found Alan wasn't out of bed and ready to go at all. He was bundled tightly in his blankets and was sleeping restlessly.
Tin-Tin sat on Alan's bed, placing a cool hand on Alan's warm forehead. She frowned as she detected a fever burning her boyfriend's brow.
"Alan? Hey, is everything okay babe?" Tin-Tin asked softly as she kissed Alan's cheek which was equally as fevered as his forehead. "Not feeling too good?"
"No, I'm cold." Alan replied weakly as he gave a shiver.
"How can you be cold babe? You're hot." Tin-Tin said softly as she felt Alan's throat like she'd seen Virgil do to see if Alan's tonsils were swollen.
"That's what she said." Alan replied, giving a weak chuckle until he saw the look on Tin-Tin's face. "Sorry."
"What am I going to do with you?" Tin-Tin muttered before she covered Alan's eyes with a pillow. "I'm turning on your bedroom light."
"Kay." Alan mumbled as he snuggled in deeper to his blankets.
Tin-Tin turned to look at Alan, striding over to look at her boyfriend and try to determine whether or not she should go wake Virgil. Upon illuminating his bedroom, Tin-Tin could make out splotches of color on his cheeks, where he'd obviously been feeling the heat from the fever he was running. Placing a cool hand against Alan's brow, Tin-Tin frowned. To be honest she was also feeling a little under the weather, but she figured it had nothing to do with their little late night walks along the beach. They only ever stayed out for about a half hour…an hour tops.
Going back over to Alan's bed, Tin-Tin gently placed her hands on Alan's throat and feeling his tonsils. They felt swollen to her and she wondered what Alan could have caught, he was on summer break from school so it wasn't like he caught it from anyone directly. He wasn't even permitted to go on rescues yet. The closest he came to assisting with rescues was typing up the notes made by John on Thunderbird 5 or Scott from mobile command.
Slowly, Tin-Tin entered Alan's bathroom to grab some fever reducer from his medicine cabinet and a glass of water. When she'd returned, she told Alan to close his eyes and made him sit up before she gave him the pills and water. Once he'd taken the medicine, he gave a shiver and Tin-Tin grabbed a pullover hoodie for Alan to slip into. Once he was in the warm hoodie he shivered a little less and gave a yawn.
"I'm sorry, I ruined our date." Alan whispered, his throat was swollen and it hurt to talk.
"Don't be, to be honest I'm not feeling too great myself." Tin-Tin replied before she tucked the blankets around Alan. "Get some sleep and I hope you feel better in the morning."
"You too." Alan said as he accepted a kiss from Tin-Tin.
Tin-Tin stood in the doorway for a few moments before she turned out Alan's bedroom light and returned to her own bedroom. Now that she thought about it, she really felt poorly too. Going back to her bedroom, Tin-Tin rubbed her hands up and down her arms to warm her skin. She had gooseflesh popping up on her arms and could feel chills coursing up and down her spine. She knew when she was getting sick and how fast it usually hit her.
When she got sick, she'd be fine one minute and like a roller coaster ride reaching the summit, she'd be knocked out of the game suddenly. She entered her bedroom and immediately went to the thermostat and turned it up to 75 degrees. She crawled back into her pajamas, adding a cardigan, leggings and fuzzy socks to her ensemble to warm her up.
She quickly burrowed under her blankets and squirmed around until she was comfortable. Laying her head down, Tin-Tin gave a sniffle and a sneeze telling her that now she was officially sick. With what she didn't know but it seemed to hit hard and didn't want to show her any mercy.
