"Your son just threw water on me after-"

"Oh shit. He's doing that again?" Sam said to me getting out of the bed. Again? What does he mean again? This shit happened before?

"Doing what again?" Ash asked him as we left the room.

"He's been having these weird fits at school lately that's been getting him in trouble. I don't know what it is. I've never seen him physically have them. Trevor!" He called as we all walked into the living room. Trevor was no where in sight.

  We split up. Ash went to my room, Sam the kitchen, and I stayed in the living room until I noticed the curtains moving. I went to open them and saw him crouched down looking lost.

"I found him." I said out loud.

"I didn't mean to. I'm sorry." He said to me innocently as he stood up.

"How do you not mean to when you took the cup and-"

"Chill Avi. Maybe he didn't. He looks sorry." Ash pointed as she came up beside me. Sam walked up and eyed him suspiciously.

"Is this like the time you yelled out when it was quiet time?" Sam asked him. Trevor didn't say anything. He just started doing that weird sound again. I slapped my thigh and pointed at him.

"That's what he did before I got him the water. I thought he had something stuck in his throat." I said to Sam. Sam watched his son worriedly and analyzed him.

   It didn't take long before he got Trevor and left the house without a word. He never told me where he was going, but I had an idea.

"He'll be fine." Ash said to me sitting down.

"Hopefully he can get him to stop doing that thing he does." I said to her as I sat down too. She shook her head.

"Ion think that's how it works. If it's really involuntary, there's nothing anybody can do. They could try to give something for it, but that could possibly make it worse." She explained to me as I took a seat beside her.

"How you know so much about it?" I asked her. She shrugged.

"At my old school, I knew somebody that had it. Really cool guy on the football team and everything. People would mock him. He hated having it, but he couldn't help it." She said to me sighing. I shook my head. I think my high had worn off. Now I was back to seeing straight, but I was still a bit sleepy.

"That's crazy. I'd wanna fight anybody making fun of me." I said to her. She shrugged.

"Sometimes that's what it led to, but he couldn't fight everybody." She explained to me as she looked at the movie. I was staring at her. I wanted to know why such a beautiful person cared so much to do research on people.

"What's it called?" I asked her.

"Terrets I think. I don't know if I said it right, but there's different forms of ticks. All of them involuntary. He could spazz, cuss without hearing them from anybody else, yell, grunt." She looked at me and smiled. I blushed.

"What are you looking at?" I asked her acting as though I didn't like the attention on me.

"I'm just glad you didn't go off on him like I though you would." She said. I slapped her leg and laughed when she made a face at me.

"What does me going off look like?" I asked her. She leaned in and kissed my nose, pinching my cheek hard before getting up and running behind the couch. I stayed seated and fumed for a bit before she came around to kiss me again.
