Roe smiled and said, "Thanks for the talk Skinny. I'm sorry for being hard on you."

Without turning around, Skinny waved off Roe's apology. " Don't mention it." he said, before sliding into his foxhole, closing his eyes as he became a little warmer.

Roe sighed and looked around. Babe and Smokey were whispering to themselves and Skinny had gone back to his foxhole. He couldn't figure what to do next.

Skinny could feel himself shaking more and more, and a cough suddenly erupted from his mouth, causing his eyes to widen in surprise. It was a deep, throaty cough, something he had never heard come from himself before.

Roe perked up at the sound coming from Skinny. That cough sounded bad. He leapt up and jumped into Skinny's foxhole asking, "What's wrong Skinny?"

Skinny motioned to his throat, as he continued to cough, his throat aching. " I- I don't know." he stated through his coughing fit. He wasn't choking or anything, but he wasn't used to coughing that hard.

Roe was worried. A cough that abd could mean many things. Roe lifted his hand to Skinny's forehead. He was burning up. Roe grabbed Skinny's blanket and wrapped it around Skinny tightly. He told him, "It'll be ok Skinny. Just stay calm. You have a fever. "Roe shouted to Babe, "Go tell Winters Skinny may have pneumonia! Go now!"

Skinny shook his head. " I can't be sick, Gene. I don't get sick." Skinny remarked, as he heard the scampering feet of Babe on the snow.

"Everyone does sometime Skinny." JUst keep warm. Rub your hands together under the blanket and use them to rub your chest. It will keep your blood circulating better."

Skinny nodded, and began rubbing his hands together beneath the blanket, though it didn't seem to be working. The coughing had died down, but he was shaking like a leaf.

Babe could hear the conversation that Skinny and roe were having and then he felt bad about the pool. He only joined them because he had nothing to do. He then heard Roe telling him to go see winters. He got up. "Sure thing!" Babe ran as fast as he could to the CP to tell winters about Skinny.

Roe was scared. Pneumonia was bad. Hopefully Skinny didn't have it.

Skinny looked around, his teeth chattering slightly as he sat there. It was weird, how fast his symptoms had come on. That scared the young man, who was starting to feel the effects of his fever. " This is weird, G-Gene." Skinny asked through his teeth.

Roe didn't know what to say to calm Skinny. He said quickly, "You'll be fine Skinny." He only hoped he was right.

Smokey poured some of his homemade coffee out of the helmet into the tin can, be it a little haphazardly, and walked over to Skinny's hole. " Here, this might help a little." he said, handing the cup to Roe, seeing as Skinny was to incapacitated to move.
