Mommy's Sweet Sweet Revenge

Chapter 7: Freedom

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.

Adrenaline is amazing.

I run as fast as I can up Declan's driveway and pound on the door. "Declan! Man open up it's Landon!"

Declan opens the door rubbing his eyes in just his boxer shorts.

"Dude it's like 3 in the morning what th -"

I push him in and slam the door locking it.

"Cops and Kaylee and-" I lean against the door trying to catch my breath.

"Slow down man, you're alright now, Mason told me the whole story, you're good." I peek out the

window and see a dark empty street. I sigh a breath of relief and throw myself on his couch.

"Nice jammies though bro do they come in my size too?" He laughs throwing me a bottle of water.

"Real funny, you wouldn't be laughing if it was you." I chug my water and relax into his cushions.

"Want some clothes?" I nodd my head and he throws me some shorts and a t-shirt. I start to change

when I realize I'm still in my diaper.

A diaper.

"Sorry man I don't have any of those for you." He laughs harder and I throw a pillow from the couch at

him.

"Shut up! I've had a traumatic experience, can I get some sleep now?" He gives a last chuckle and

heads up to his room.

"Night man, we'll figure it out in the morning."

I shut my eyes as soon as he shuts the light ou, feels good to be out of a crib. Even if it is just a couch.

I start drifting off to sleep, when theres a loud knock at the door.

"Shoot!"
