As Maddy woke up from a nice sleep she noticed a small glittery patches all over her body. She inspects them and notices it's glitter. Oh no...

Maddy screams at the top of her lungs. A pair of feet are heard running to the room.

"What's wrong Maddy?" Patton says trying to hug the girl.

"DONT TOUCH ME! ITS CONTAGIOUS!" She yells.

"What is?" He asks confused.

"Art Herpes. The worst virus EVER. See look." She says holding her arm out to show Patton the sparkly glitter spots.

"Maddy that's glitter."

"But glitter NEVER EVER COMES OFF OF ANYTHING thus art herpes."

"Ooh. I'm sorry kiddo! Anything you need?"

"I need to be isolated from everybody for eternity. I solemnly take this, but first I must say goodbye." Maddy says motioning Patton out of the room.

"Ok... I'll gather everybody in the living room."

"Thank you Patton you've been so sweet."

"Thank you all for gathering here today. I have to confess something!" Maddy says after her whole family is in Thomas' front room.

"Spit it out Maddy."

"Alright. I have a disease and...." she trails off noticing some glitter on Virgil's jacket. "Virgil?" He hums in reply. "Your infected. We must be isolated forever. I won't subject anybody to this torture of this disease!"

"Whaaaat are you talking about?"

"Art herpes. There. On your sweater is the most clingy, sharp, annoying, shiny, sparkly, maybe even beautiful thing in the world."

"So why are you making a fuss about it. I only have glitter on my jacket."

"Oh I love glitter!" Roman gasps touching the spot on Virgil's jacket.

"Nooooo! Stop with the spreading of Glitter!" Patton gasps grabbing Maddy's arm getting glitter on himself.

"PATTON! Your infected!" Maddy cries.

"It's only glitter. What harm can it do?"

"It never comes out of anything. No matter how many times you wash whatever it is, it will NEVER leave." Maddy warns.

"Oh? So what would happen if I do... this?" Logan asks dumping a bucket of bright pink glitter on his head.

"LOGAN! How dare you slump down to our filthy state!" Maddy cries.

"LOGAN! Now I can hug you without infecting you!" Patton yells the same time as Maddy's cry.

"Oh hey sorry I'm late?" Thomas says walking in seeing a glitter soaked Logan with Maddy crying at his feet, Patton hugging looks Logan, Virgil looking like he's going to kill somebody, and Roman who's cussing out his hand for betraying him. "What's going on here?"

"LOGAN GAVE HIMSELF ART HERPES!" Maddy cries.

"What is art herpes?"

"Glitter!" The five yell.

"Ooh. Is it called that because?"

"It doesn't come out." They say in unison again.

"Right. I'm going back outside and you clean this up as much as you can. Ok? Bye." They cleaned it up but every so often one catches another case of art herpes. Be careful out there.
