What is that title?...

   "So, tell me whatcha want! What cha really, really want!" James was in the other room singing as he was putting away his book onto a shelf. "Why See you singing that?" Hercules laughed.

   James almost fell. "Oh, hey, Herc! Thomas got it stuck in my head," He laughed. "That's weird. Marquis doesn't sing the song, but he's always listening to it," Hercules pointed out.

   "It's like they're the same person!" James laughed, placing the book in its spot, then hopping onto his feet. He was standing on the couch. If his mother was there, she'd scream at him.

The two stood in silence. "Nah! They look nothing alike!" They said in unison, laughing. James then started having a coughing fit. "You okay?" Hercules was worried. James clutched his stomach and looked at Hercules with a weak smile. "I'll be fine," His words sounded weak.

   These random sicknesses popped up from out of nowhere. James had always been a sick kid, but lately it seemed more deadly since the car accident.

    I'm gonna reck this car!

   James wasn't a big fan of getting in a car since, but he fought through it. Getting in that accident is probably going to ruin him. Thomas is almost always- and yes,literally always- by his side.

    "Hey, Jem, I got this cool thing for you!" Thomas barged through the door, holding up a can of oxygen. "A can of oxygen?" James looked as confused as Hercules. "Yeah!" Thomas was probably smiling so much he could kill Satan... 5 times.

    "But what is it-?" James put his hands on his chest and took a deep breath. Thomas put his hands on James' cheeks. "Are you okay, Jemmy?" Thomas panicked. James quickly inhaled his inhaler. He then breathed out with huge relief. "Oh, gosh!" He sounded so relieved. Thomas hugged James. "Are you okay?" He asked, worried. Hercules had ran off to call 911, but hung up once he saw the two at peace.

    "Dude, you scared me!" Hercules scolded James. "I think I might've had a heart attack!" Thomas practically screamed, still hugging James. "You should really get your acid reflux checked out, Tommy!" James informed.

    Thomas just laughed. "Jemmy, babe, you're so cute!" He kissed James' forehead, then waltzed off through the door.

   "He came all the way over here to give me a bottle of oxygen, have a heart attack, and then waltz out?" James asked, staring at the door frame in awe. "What'd you want him to do?" Hercules laughed.

     "I don't know- hang out?" He looked disappointed. That's when Thomas ran through the door. "I'm here for you, James!" He said dramatically, hugging James. "Why have you been so weird lately?" James asked him immediately. "It's called,'I Hung Out With Marquis Once.'" He responded, giving James a peck on the lips.

    James looked at Hercules with a shameful glare. He just shrugged in response. "I've been thinking too much!" Thomas said out of nowhere. "Help me," James sang after. "TØP, really?" Hercules asked. "What do you listen to then, Herc?" James laughed in a competitive way. "I listen to Falloutboy and My Chemical Romance," He responded. "And don't forget Vanessa Carlton!" James added on with a joking smile. "Hey, she has a beautiful voice and I can just really relate to her," The sad thing was Hercules was serious.

     Thomas and James laughed, walking out the door. They really liked to do that.

   Hercules decided to call over Marquis while he's home alone. His mother would be home in a few hours which would be the perfect opportunity for the two to actually talk.

    He then called Marquis. Called again. Then waited about 20 Minutes. Finally he called again. His mother answered. "Bonjour, Hercules!" She sounded excited. "What can I do for you?" Hercules then smiled at how much of a loving mother she was.

    "I wanted to know if Marquis can come over," Hercules informed her. "Oh, of course he can! Right now he's in the shower, but I can get him for you once he's out. Unless you just wanna come over and take a-" Before she even finished, Hercules was already about to collapse. "No thank you, ma'am," he said quickly, face as red as a tomato.

    "I was going to say if you wanted to come over and take a break from your own family, dear. What'd you think I was going to say?" She asked, sincerely and confused.

   "Oh, that. What you were about to say. That's what I thought, I just would rather him come over him for once," Hercules grinned, nervously.

   "Oh, yes, hon. I don't want to hurt you, but how's your mother?" She asked, afraid of the answer.

   "My mother.. Oh, yeah, I have one of those. Yeah, she's doing okay. We haven't really talked much about it," Hercules shrugged. He only didn't actually hate his dad until he beat him up. He was actually very supportive up until them. Makes you think if you really know people.

    "Oh, Hercules, I'm sorry!" She was truly sorry. "It's fine, ma'am. I want to know how guys are. Marquis' told me why you guys were here, and there was this guy who threw him into the floor," Hercules didn't know if what he was asking was polite or not his business.

   "I'm going to need to talk to you and your mother in person sometime," she said quietly. Hercules looked around, confused. He clutched his phone closer to the ear. "My mother will be home in about 2 hours. You can come over with Marquis if that's good with you," Hercules informed.

    "Oh, thank you. Are you sure your mother won't mind?" She asked, still quiet. "My mother loves guests," Hercules felt this conversation was very serious.

Nothing against Vanessa, I love her music. It was just for James' character. :)
