When will love be through with me?

"Well getting the money for the drops and things like that."

Vincent nodded before looking at Artemis. "Why don't you go find your brother and let him know I'm here?"

Artemis tried not to laugh as he nodded. "He's probably still asleep, but I can do that." He said before walking off.

Tucker smiled, before seeing some files he had to work on nearby.

"So how is everything going?" Vincent asked Tucker once Artemis was gone.

Tucker sighed, "Jacen is over working himself even harder now that Alex is missing, Artermis is upset because he can't do anything and Mikey is sad because he still loves Artermis."

Vincent sighed and shook his head. "Last time I spoke to Mikey he insisted he didn't. The other two are just as stubborn as each other."

Tucker sighed, "Mikey still loves him... he just doesn't like to admit it.... And they both are stubborn."

"He told you he did?" Vincent asked curiously, raising an eyebrow.

Tucker nodded, "Yeah, we were talking just a little while back."

"Oh really?" Vincent asked. "He doesn't really talk to many people, what did he say?"

Tucker told him everything that had happened.

Vincent nodded slowly as he listened, staying quiet for a minute after Tucker was done. "Is he aware of everything that happened?"

"Yeah he knows Alex is missing."

"It would be hard not to in a house like this." Vincent said.

Tucker nodded, "I guess... And having Angel and Brayden here would let the cat out of the bag is he didn;t know."

"True," Vincent nodded. "I'd keep an eye on Mikey just in case while Alex isn't here..." He added, speaking quietly.

Tucker tilted his head, "You think he;s going to hit on Artermis?"

"Not necessarily..." Vincent answered. "It's better he didn't have a chance to try anything though, it would just make matters worse if he ended up hurt again."

Tucker nodded, "I understand... I should get his food up to him."

Alex woke up with a yawn.

"Oh, right." Vincent said, slowly nodding. "I take it he didn't want to come out here while Artemis was around?"

Casey had woken up earlier and was no longer in the room, but Will was sitting nearby drawing.

Tucker nodded, "Yeah... Artermis said some stuff that hurt him..."

Alex yawned, "Hey."

Vincent frowned. "Like what?"

"Oh, you awake." Will said as he looked up at Alex, giving a small smile.

Tucker sighed and told him what happened.

Alex smiled back, "Where's Casey?"

Vincent sighed and shook his head. "Artemis and Jacen can be a little insensitive at times... it doesn't really help anyone."

"Grandpa said he wanted to talk to him."

Tucker sighed and nodded.

"Oh..." Alex said softly.
