Michael's POV

After rushing out of the doctors, Ocean sits quietly staring out of the car window. "Baby, it's ok" I say softly placing my hand on hers. "I-I'm sorry couldn't. T-they were everywhere and they were coughing and and sneezing and... what if we got sick!? From those people" she stutters "your mad at me aren't you?" She mumbles "of course not! We'll just make another appointment it's fine" I try and soothe her. Ocean has been getting really paranoid lately, especially when it comes to things being clean and sick people being around her and I'm trying my best to keep her calm. She's always get a little OCD about cleaning when she's stressed and with everything that's happened it's understandable that's she'd be stressed, but she's never been this bad before.

When we get home Ocean heads straight upstairs to take a shower and I start cooking some lunch for us.

I'm just finishing plating the food and I smile feeling Ocean wrap her arms around me. "Looks good" she whispers into my ear. "Let's hope it tastes good too" I chuckle slightly. "Trust me it does" she moans slightly and I smile feeling her hand slowly moving towards crotch. "We're not talking about food anymore are we?" I smirk turning to face her, loving where this conversation is going. "I never was" she winks releasing my now fully hard manhood "it feels good too" she whispers onto my lips and gently pulls me closer to her leading me towards the dining table. Kissing me deeply. I lift her shirt over her head throwing in on the floor and moan slightly seeing she isn't wearing anything underneath. Our kiss deepens once more and she breaks away kissing and nibbling on my neck. "I need you daddy" she whispers seductively into my ear and lift her up onto the table and position myself between her legs rubbing my tip against her entrance teasing her slightly before entering her thrusting slowly inside of her. "I need it harder" she moans into my mouth and I happily oblige and begin thrusting harder and faster, deep inside of her as our moans become louder and more intense.

The next morning

Jermaine's POV

I got up late this morning and as I'm about to go downstairs and I hear the TV on in Michael and Ocean's bedroom. I go in and see Ocean sitting on the bed. "What are you still doing here? It's 11am thought you guys were going to see DJ at 9:30?" I ask confused. "Michael can't go, he's sick so we had to cancel. I don't want DJ getting his germs"

"So why didn't you go by yourself?" I shrug "n-no Michael can't go and I can't leave the house" she stutters "why can't you leave the house?" She shakes her head "I can't leave I just told you, Michael's sick, I can't leave the room!" She snaps slightly and I look at her skeptically for a moment "but just because Michael's sick doesn't mean you can't go and see DJ" I frown "n-no, n-not without Michael! I-I can't leave the house!" She stutters nervously. I walk over and sit beside her on the bed "did Michael tell you that? You can't leave the house without him?" She shakes her head not answering. "Has Michael done something to you?" I ask worriedly seeing how nervous she looks right now. "No! Why would you think that!?, Michael loves me and I love him... He's sick so we're staying home until he's stronger again ok!?" She snaps at me "I'm just asking" I say softly "if he has done something or said anything to you that's upset you or made you feel scared, you know you can always come to me right?" I say softly "Well he hasn't" she smiles through pursed lips. "Where's Michael now?" I sigh "downstairs resting"

**
I go into the living room and Michael is lay of the sofa with a blanket watching tv. He sweating a lot and I can clearly see Ocean wasn't lying about him being sick, but that doesn't explain why he won't let her leave the house or the bedroom "what's going on?" I frown walking over to him and he looks at me confused. "You two have just gotten full days on Saturdays with DJ and your cancelling on the second week!?"

"I'm sick what do you want me to do?"

"Your sick but Ocean's not! Why won't you let her go and see him!?" I frown getting annoyed  "I'm not stopping her going anywhere!" He snaps back at me. "Michael, I've just seen her and she told me she can't leave the house without you!" I sigh taking a deep breath not wanting to ask him this question. "Are you hitting her again?"

"What!? No!" He frowns at me "have you?... Done something else?"

"No! I Haven't done anything to her! Is that what she told you!?" He snaps raising his voice "no, but when I asked her why she didn't go to see DJ herself she looked scared and started stuttering saying she couldn't leave the house without you! Clearly somethings going on! And whys she hiding away from you in her room? If your...."

"I've NOT done anything ok!" He snaps "so what's going on?" He looks away not answering "Michael, what's going on?" I ask again more sternly and he sighs taking a deep breath. "She scared to go outside without me with her ok? And she's not hiding because she's scared of me or because I did anything, she just doesn't want to be near me right now" I look at him confused as he continues talking "Yesterday she was all over me and today she won't come anywhere near me because I'm sick"

"Why would she be scared to come near you just because your sick? or refused to visit DJ alone?" I ask getting even more confused. "She's scared if she goes out alone someone's gonna kidnap her and if she goes to Jessica's alone they'll try to turn her against me. and as for the sick part. She thinks if she gets sick it's gonna make her weak and she won't be able to get away if someone tries to take her, that's why she won't come near me right now because she doesn't won't us both being week at the same time" I look at him for a moment and I can see the worry on his face "is that why she keeps locking all the windows and doors?" He nods not saying anything. And I remember what their therapist said about Ocean showing signs of bipolar. "Have you spoken to the doctor about this?" He shakes his head "she's fine she's just a little stressed is all"

"Michael, I spoke to your therapist remember? And he said she was showing signs of..."

"I know that!" He snaps cutting me off. "So why haven't you done anything about it?" I frown "I am helping her and she's not harming  anybody is she?  If keeping things clean and me staying with her when she leaves the house keeps her calm then that's what I'll do. She'll be ok soon, these things just happen sometimes, but if she goes over to Jessica's house alone, they'll know somethings wrong with her and if they find out about this we could lose DJ for good and I can't risk that" he sighs and I can see how stressed and upset he's getting. "Your not blaming her for risking your chances of getting DJ back are you? Because if she's sick it not her..."

"Of course I'm not blaming her! And I know It's not her fault if she's ill right now!" He snaps cutting me off "just like it wasn't my fault I have a condition.. She didn't blame me.. Not once! she stuck by me and helped me through all of it. Even though she was tired and stressed, she still helped me thought it. Now it's my turn to help her" I smile sympathetically pulling him close for a hug. "I'm proud of you both you know that right? And if you need me to do anything or you feel like this is to much for you to handle on your own, just let me know what need and I'll help you ok?"

"There is one thing you can do for me" he mumbles. "She's scared to come near me while I'm sick, would you just keep an eye on her for me?" I smile and nod. "Sure, is there anything particular I need to do or look out for?" He shakes his head "just talk to her and keep her company, I'll stay in the spare room while I'm sick so she isn't stuck our bedroom all day"

"I can do that" I shrug smiling "you head up to the spare room and get some rest and I'll go talk to her, let her know it's ok to come out of her room"

"Safe" he says and I look at him confused "tell her it's safe to come out" I smile through pursed lips and nod "you go get some rest and I'll go tell her it's safe to come out" I correct myself "thank you" he smiles and heads upstairs.

Jessica's POV

"Looks like their not coming" I shrug to Carson who's sitting at the kitchen table drinking his coffee. "Why not!?" He frowns "it's one day! They can't be bothered turning up for one day?"

"The social worker phoned and said Michael called her telling her they were sick"

"Well they better not call next week with another lame excuse. It's their kid and if they didn't want to take care of it then they should have dumped it at the hospital like we told them to when it was born" he frowns "well he's here now, nothing we can do about it" I sigh pretending to be annoyed but inside I'm smiling to myself knowing Sherri was wrong. I knew all along they'd get bored of coming over for visits and I was right! And pretty soon they'll give up wanting to come over for visits anymore and we can get on with our lives without having to worry about Ocean or Michael turning up ruining things. Now all I need to do is get Carson and Duncan bonding.
