Janet's POV
It's Monday morning and I've barely slept all night worrying about going back to school today. Most people have stopped sending me nasty messages other than this one anonymous person who's still constantly sending me texts and emails. It was bad enough when the others we're sending me stuff, but at least I knew who they we're and not knowing who 'anonymous' is, is really worrying me because who ever it is must be someone I know if they have my Email address and phone number.
After getting myself and Mikey ready for the day, I quietly leave my room and listen at the stairs for a moment and hear Michael an Ocean in the kitchen with the kids and quickly and quietly sneak into their room.
I lay Mikey down on the bed an quietly open the closet an reach up, moving the boxes out of the way to get another bottle of methadone to calm my nerves before school and I realize there's only 5 bottles left.
There used to be alot and there's no way I could have used all of them myself so Michael and Ocean must have started taking it again and I'm hoping they haven't noticed any missing. I'm also hoping they order some more from their doctor soon. I don't need it and could easily do without, but it's really been helping me with my nerves and with everything that's going on with those anonymous messages, I've been really nervous all weekend about going back to school.
My thoughts are disturbed when I hear someone walking up the stairs and I quickly put a bottle in my pocket and put everything back, lucky just in time before Michael walks in with Princess.
"Hey what are you guys doing in here?" He smiles. "Umm.. I um.. I was looking for some socks for Mikey" I lie. "But he's already wearing socks" he point and Mikey confused. "Because I found some" I fake a smile and he nods
"I just came up here to wake you up, but it looks like I didn't need to" he smiles and sits on the bed next to Mikey and Princess crawls over to him "I was just on my way down to give him his bottle" I smile, picking him up.
"Before you go anywhere" Michael says , getting up from the bed and I stand nervously as he walks over towards the closet. "I- I can expl..."
"I have something for you" he smiles and I sigh in relief as he walks past the closet and opens his dresser. "Here you go" he smiles handing me a phone. "But this is yours" I frown confused "It's fine. Ocean got me a new one for my birthday. I know it's not the same as the one I broke, but you can still have it... I'm sorry I went a little over the top. I honestly didn't mean to smash it" he says sincerely and I nod, feeling guilty as I take it from him. I just stuck in here to steal from him and he's the one apologising and giving me a phone.
"Are you ok?" He asks confused by my reaction and I nod. "Umhm... Thanks" I take a smile. I can't tell him I've been stealing methadone from him and Ocean and there's no way I'm going to be able to put it back now without anybody noticing so I'll have to try and get home from school early and put it back when they won't be home.

Michael's POVAfter breakfast Janet leaves for school and I'm helping Ocean clear the dishes before we get DJ and Veah ready for daycare. "Janet seems to be doing better today. When I went upstairs to wake her she was already up and had Mikey ready an everything" I comment "You didn't tell her what I told you, did you?"
"Of course not" I shake my head. "I'm still pissed Ray didn't say anything though" I frown "Probably because there's nothing really to tell. She came on to him and he turned her down" she shrugs. "He still should have told me. Maybe we should tell him not to visit in a few weeks"
"For what?" She frowns confused "because he's a grown man and..."
"Nothing happened between them and it never will. Ray's gay remember?" She rolls her eyes "It's still weird my little sister drooling over my best friend"
