M: When can I go home?
W: The doctor wants to run a few test and then he'll tell us.
M: Can't we just leave?
C: No Matty, you didn't want to wake up at the house.
J: So the doctors have to make sure that nothing is wrong.
W: Your brothers are right.
Mi: William? (He said sounding surprised)
M: Daddy, you said brothers.
W: You guys were talking about how we're a family the other day so would you mind having another older brother?
M: Nope, I love Jakey.
J: I love you too Matty.
...
Knock, Knock,
M: Come in! (He shouted)
Dr: Is see that someone is awake.
M: Mm-hm.
Dr: We're going to come take him now for a few test just to make sure that everything is hunky dorey. One of you can come with but the other needs to stay with the boys.
Mi: I'll stay with the boys,
W: Thanks.
...
The scans and x-rays took an hour and in that time Jake and Connor decided to pack Mathew's things because the just knew that the doctor would let Mathew go. Michael tried explaining that he might not but the boys were adamant and in the end if paid off. All of Mathew's scans came back clear.
Dr: So Mathew, you're free to go.
Boys: Yes!
Dr: But you should take it easy, no rough games for at least two more days and if your head starts paining then you should tell your father immediately.
M: I promise.
Dr: Good, now enjoy your Sunday.
W: Thank you for everything, doctor.
Dr: it was a pleasure. (He said a gave both Michael and William a hand shake before leaving)
W: So you guys can pack up while I fill out the discharge forms.
C: Already done.
W: When?
J: When you and Matty were with the doctor.
W: And what if he said that Matty couldn't leave?
Mi: Oh, they were sure that the doctor would let Matty go.
W: Wow, we do have some bright boys here.
Mi: I agree.
W: Let me go fill out the forms so that we can get out of here.
....
After William filled out the forms the group went to where William's car was parked.
W: Can I drive my own car now?
Mi: Sure, just stop at the supermarket.
W: Why if I may ask?
Mi: I'm going to make that dinner or lunch in this case that you have been nagging me about.
W: I haven't been nagging but buying a meal at the supermarket will definitely not do.
Mi: I'm only buying ingredients now drive please. (He said and the boys were giggling from the back seat) Does your dad always talk this much?
C: Yup.
W: Oh, all of you keep quiet.
They drove to the supermarket and since it's Sunday t was relatively empty so they got in and out with their ingredients plus a bit extra in record time and were on their way again.
=Michael's House=
Mi: So you guys can all get comfy in front of the TV while I make us lunch.
W: I can help.
Mi: No can do, I'm cooking for the four of you.
W: Oh really, now I can't wait to taste it.
Mi: It's be two hours max.
W: we'll be counting.
Mi: I'm sure you will William.
William and the boys sat down in front of the TV and the boys watched while William went through a few e-mails on his phone. Everyone started getting a bit fidgety.
W: How long do we still need to wait, Michael?
Mi; William, ask me that again and I'll throw you with a spoon.
W: Someone's a bit abusive. (He said and the boys laughed)
Mi: He doesn't know what he's talking about so don't listen to him boys. You should come set the table now, William.
W: So he's bossy too.
J: So now he is abusive and bossy?
W: Exactly.
Mi: Go wash your hands for lunch boys, we'll eat as soon as Uncle William decides to set the table.
C: Dad?
W: I'm going.
William went about setting the table while the boys washed their hands and Michael carried the dishes to the table.
W: That smells amazing, I can't wait to taste it, I hope it will be worth the wait.
Mi: It will be.
The boys came down and everyone took their place around the table. Michael said grace before everyone dug into their food. The boys told their father and uncle about their week and Michael and William listened to them talking and even asked question every once in awhile. William took a hold of Michael's hand half way through the meal and just kept his hand there. Everyone saw it but no one had a problem with it and Michael just smiled at William. After lunch was finished the boys all decided that they needed a nap so they all curled up on Jake's bed and fell asleep. Michael and William cleaned up and put the dishes into the dish washer and they both sat down with a glass of wine.
W: Your food was amazing and I can't believe that it took me so long before tasting it now I don't think I can get enough of it.
Mi: I'll always be prepared to cook something for you.
W: Thanks, I don't want to go back to work tomorrow, I love spending time with you and the boys.
Mi: And we love spending time with you but we need to go to work and go to school too.
W: Mm-hm. (He put his glass of wine down and then took Michael's from his hand and also put it on the table)
William stood up and turned so that he was facing Michael.
W: So the last time we wanted to do this we were disrupted by a phone call so I was wondering f we could have a redo because I really want to kiss you.
Mi: I really want to kiss you too. (He said pulling William's face closer and placing his lips on William's for the first time)
They kissed until the need for air was unavoidable.
W: Wow, it feels so different kissing a guy then it is kissing a woman. (He said slightly out of breath)
Mi: Good different or bad different?
W: Good, I definitely want to do that again. (He said pulling Michael in for another kiss)
