"Has he come out of his room any?" Miko asked sitting down at the kitchen table. 

"No," I said leading on the counter watching Ollie cook dinner. 

"Maybe someone should check on him." 

"Mason, you should do it," Ollie said. 

"Okay," I went to go check on Art. I won't go into detail of what I found but Art tried to kill himself with my medication that he said he was going to sell when he first came when he woke up. He didn't remember trying to kill himself last he remembered was taking out the pills. He was diagnosed with Bipolar Depression and Post-traumatic stress disorder. Doesn't shock me really shit he's been through and he is my son. He'll be able to come home in a week. After his pills started working Art was one happy mother fucker. 

"I want chocolate pudding," Art announced as we walked in his room.  "Oh and that shirt looks amazing on you Miko." I looked back at Miko to see him looking at his shirt then blushing. 

"Oh hell no."

"Mason shut up," Ollie said. "How are you feeling, Art?"

"I'm great! Wonderful! The nurses here are pretty but they keep flirting with me it's awkward."

"See! I wasn't lying!" I looked at Ollie.

"Wonder we have two wack jobs now." 

"Hey thats mean I'm not a wack job!" Me and Art said at the sametime. 

"Yup they are related." Art smiled. 

"This one nurse said she would be happy to help me shower." Art started laughing, Miko crossed his arms over his chest. "I told her no that I was into men. Should have seen her face!" 

"I think I like this Art better than crabby pants mcgee." I said smiling at Ollie. He didn't return the smile. 

"I think he's a little too happy."  Miko said sitting on Art's bed. Art grabbed him, hugging him. 

"You smell good."

"I agree with, Miko." 

"Fine, fine I'll go talk to the doctor!" I went to talk to the doctor and he said he would lower Art's medication. I went in the room again and Art was petting Miko's hair.  Ollie was just watching them. 

"He's acting like he's high off his ass."

"I am high off my ass!" Art clapped his hands. 

"You are?" Miko asked looking at him, Art nodded. 

"Off chocolate." 

"For fucks sake," Ollie said pitching the skin between his eyes. 

"The doctors said they'll lower his medication." 

"I'm tired," Art said yawning. 

"We should leave, get some rest Art. You get to come home tomorrow." Ollie said standing up. 

"Okay...hey can I have a room upstairs?"

"Why?" I asked.

"Gets really cold downstairs and spiders." Art said moving his fingers up Miko's arm like a spider. Miko slapped his hand away and stood up. 

"Maybe," I pat Art's head. "See you tomorrow."

"Bye Bye!" He smiled. We left and went home. 

"I like the old Art," Miko said.

"That is Art just more happy Art." I said sitting on the couch. 

"Okay I like crabby jackass Art." 

"He cursed." 

"You curse."

"I know but it doesn't sound right when it comes out of your mouth."

"Fuck."

"Stop it!" Miko sat down on the couch smiling. 

"Is anyone hungry?" Ollie asked.

"No."

"No." 

"Good because I'm too tired to cook," Ollie sat next to me. 

"I'm going to bed night," Miko went upstairs. 

"Night!" Ollie and I said. 

"Mason?" Ollie said.

"What?"

"Do not move Art upstairs." 

"I wasn't planning on it but I thought you didn't care if they date."

"They aren't dating but if they do I don't want them having sex in the house. I don't care if they date just no sex in the house." I smiled.

"I don't want them to date."

"Why?"

"Because Art is...Art and Miko's to precious and a good kid." 

"Miko is not a good kid he's just not as bad as Art."

"Miko hasn't done one bad thing."

"Really? He got in a car with Art."

"Good point now you see why I don't want them to date!"

"Well hopefully Miko doesn't have any feelings for Art. Doesn't seem he does so far, he didn't want Art touching him when we were at the hospital." 

"True...oh well lets go to bed." 

"You mean I go to bed and you stay down here doing Mason's weird shit at night."

"Yes night." 

"Night." He kissed me and went upstairs.
