Mommy's Sweet Sweet Revenge novel Chapter 7

I stand up and begin working on the cover of the crib. The lock starts to open and I lift the top off. I slowly climb down and lightly put my feet on the floor. I feel like a secret agent, or an inmate trying to break free, come to think of it I relate more to the second analogy.

I tip toe my way to the door and start fidgeting with the two locks above me. I look to the side of the lock and stick the screw driver in. I pull it out and it gets stuck on something. "Dammit what-.."

I look closer and its the Batman bracelet. I stop what I'm doing and lean against the door.

"What if I do this and never see Rex again?" I shake my head of my thoughts and get back to the locks. I break open the first one and I'm working on the second.

"Almost there." I open the door as slowly as I can, making sure not a single creek escapes it.

I slip on my shoes. MY shoes the one's I haven't worn since I've been here.

I tip toe out into the hall and sit on the top step, If I walk down the stairs she'll definitely hear me, I start slidding my self down the stairs on my butt.

"Man I haven't done this since I was eight, trying to sneak into the kitchen for a midnight cookie." I smile to myself and crawl to the front door once I reach the bottom. "Freedom here I come."

I undo the locks on the front door.

"Landon why you leaving? Thought we was friends?"

I turn around thinking I hear Rex, but no ones there.

"What the..?." I whisper to myself. I look around a second time for good measure before bolting out the door. The alarm goes off and I can see some lights turn on from upstairs.

"Great my buddy Mason, didn't think that part through huh?" I run as fast as I can down the block to Declans house.

God I've never moved my legs so fast in my life.

I stop at the turn and try to catch my breath, football didn't even do this to me. I lean over and try to get some air in when I hear sirens. "Oh no.."

I turn the corner and find an extra burst of energy to sprint down the road.
