One Sick Simon

Well, technically I didn't get M1abrams' approval yet, but I asked them about a week ago and I didn't get a response! So I figured I'd post it and if they tell me to take it down, I will immediately.

Scene:
...Turning to walk out, Dave noticed Alvin poking his head in the doorway.
"There you are Alvin," Dave said as he walked up to him, "You think you could do me a favor and go wet another towel with cold water for me and put it on Simons forehead? The other one is all warm now."
"Yeah sure," Alvin said as Dave walked passed him.
"Hey there Simon," Alvin said in a cocky tone.
"You shouldn't be in here Alvin, I've got the flu," Simon said weakly.
"Yeah sure ya do," Alvin said as he turned around and jumped up into his bed, "I just wanted to ask you a few questions before I left, it wont take but a minute."
"Okay," Simon said pulling the covers up over his mouth.
"Great! First question, this illness of yours. Many of us at school were wondering today, just how it's possible to come down with such a severe sickness in just one night. Furthermore be able to show no signs the previous night! As you can imagine, this has left a lot of us curious."
"Well, the flu virus is very fast acting, it can attack and weaken the immune system in just hours," Simon said as his eyes started to droop.
"Good answer, very well thought out. Then again you've had plenty of time to come up with explanations like that, haven't you?" Alvin spun around and pointed a finger at Simon, but there was no reaction from his brainy brother, "He fell asleep?"
Alvin was annoyed now, Simon was so intent on keeping up this charade that he faked falling asleep. A good trick, but Alvin could see through it...
