Ocean's POV
So it's finally Saturday and I'm really excited about taking DJ to see Michael, I know DJ misses him and Michael misses him just as much. Janet and Randy are going to be there too. I feel really bad living next door to them and not being able to take him to see them or hang out with Randy. We got pretty close when I was living there and he became more like brother to me and not just as an in law like an actual brother and now if we see each other in the street we literally have to look away and keep walking incase any of or parents see.
When I finish getting ready I head downstairs and my mother and Sherri are sitting in the living room. "All ready to go now?" My mother asks smiling a totally obvious fake smile. "Soon...I'm gonna have a cup of coffee first. Would you like one?" I smile "sure" they both shrug.
I head into the kitchen and I do feel really bad about doing this but I make sure their not looking and slip the crushed up sleeping pills into their drinks an head back into the living room. "So where I you guys off to today?" Sherri asks smiling which just like my mothers is completely fake. I sit and talk to them for awhile, remembering what Michael told me about waiting 20 minutes. "Are you ok?" I ask my mother noticing she starting to look a little drowsy "mhm...just a little tiered" she smiles through pursed lips "me too" Sherri yawns "well I best leave you guys to it..let you guys get some rest" I smile slightly and head off to go and meet Michael.

Randy's POV"Now don't forget..if anybody asks. Where do we say we went?" I ask Janet sternly "we went to the park and then to Chucky cheese" she smiles "that's right!" I smile back. "Because nobody can't find out where we're really going ok,"
"Can we still go Chucky cheese after?"
"Fine" I roll my eyes. And we head off to Michael's.

When we pull up outside the house I turn to Janet "now. Whatever you do DO NOT! Tell Michael what happened ok?" I tell her sternly "but Michael always told me never to keep secrets from him" she says confused "I know but if he found out what happened he'll get really upset and he'll be angry with Joseph" I explain "and if he gets mad at Joseph then he'll find out we lied about where we were going...and you know what that means?" She sighs putting her head down "we won't be allowed to come again"****
Michael's POV
As soon as I open the door Janet smiles wrapping her arms around me. "Hey! Have you missed me?" I smile back pulling her in a little closer. "Mhm" she nods smiling and I can see she looks a little uncomfortable "are you ok?" She nods looking around "where's Ocean and DJ?"
"Their in the living room" i smile and she excitedly runs off and I turn to Randy "does she know?" I mumble and he looks at me confused "about..you know?..everything?" I raise my eyebrows and he gets it. "Oh, no she doesn't know anything" he shakes his head "so why did she tense up and look uncomfortable when I hugged her?"
"All she knows is that you and Joseph had a fight and your not allowed home....she probably just feels bad about having to lie about where we were going" he shrugs "I guess....so how's everything going at home?"
"Fine. I guess" he shrugs heading into the living room with me following behind.

After the slightly awkward greeting I got from Janet her mood quickly changed when she saw DJ sitting up all by himself. "When will he say my name?""You just gotta keep talking to him, he'll bee talking soon enough though" I smile, watching her trying to teach him "Ja-net Ja-net" he looks at her for a moment then turns to Ocean opening his arms babbling "Mm...Mm"
