Date: August 29th, 1999.
Setting: Tadfield Manor, The Hospital Wing
Status: Public
Summary: Crowley and Aziraphale are sick of the hospital.
THUD!
Crowley looked over the top of the book he was reading* to see Aziraphale toss aside one of the cheap romance novels that Adam had left for him. Shocked that the angel would treat even a crappy paperback in such a manner, he began watching Aziraphale surreptitiously.
Over the next half hour, Aziraphale stared out the window, fiddled with his bed sheets, kicked his feet, and fluffed his pillows. Much more annoying, however, were all the little sighs, tsks, and taps he was making.
Crowley couldn't return to his book with all the distractions and he threw it down in frustration.
"All right, angel. What is your problem? I've never seen you so restless."
*The Da Vinci Code, if you must know. He'd already finished the other books Adam had brought him: The Stand, Faust, the Divine Comedy** and the Kama Sutra, which was buried underneath the pile. The boy certainly had strange ideas about what demons liked.
**Highlighting passages that Dante got dead wrong and scribbling corrections in the margins served to pass the time pretty well.
