"Mama I'm bored," Alex's voice fills my ear. "Well what would you like to do," I asked him, setting my book down. He looked up, placing his finger on his chin, "What about hide and seek." I smiled at him, "Okay I'll count first."

I heard him giggle and his footsteps retreating as I placed my handover my eyes and began counting. "One..two..three..four..five..si-," "I'M READY," he yelled from somewhere in the house. I stood up and started walking around the house.

I checked the kitchen, living room and the bathroom. I then made my way to his room where he was very obviously hiding behind his door. "Man he is really good," I said aloud, smiling when I heard his failed attempt to contain his laughs.

I check under his bed, and in his closet. "I wonder where he is," I walked to his door, "Maybe he is behind the door," I quickly moved his door revealing ALex, he squeals and runs away. I chased after him and once I caught up to him I grabbed and picked him up, "gotcha."

He laughs as I set him on the ground. "You turn mama." I looked down at him, "Okay but you better not speak." I teased earning an eye roll, "I would never cheat." he lied. He then put his hands over his eyes, I watched as he peeked through his fingers but I didn't say anything.

I walked towards my room hiding in my closet behind the clothes. "READY OR NOT HERE I COME!" he yelled. Seconds later he walked into my room. I watched him look under the bed, and when he didn't find me he came straight to the closet moving the clothes.

When he got close to me I jumped out and scared him. "I found you," he cheered. "Now it's my turn," he turned around and ran off. I sat on the bed until he yelled he was ready, but that never came.

I waited a few minutes thinking he was trying to hide in a really good spot but after the five minute mark I gave up waiting and started walking around. I stopped in my tracks once I made it to the living room.

Alex laid on the floor with a white blanket on the floor. Confusion took over as I know Alex has bad hiding spots but never this bad. I slowly made my way over to him, "Alex," I called out, waiting to hear his giggles but never did.

I bent down and ripped the blanket off of him. I fell backwards and let out a scream. Alex laid lifeless in a pile of his own blood as many holes covered his body.

I gasped quickly sitting up in bed, tears ran down my face and sweat covered my body. I looked around letting out a breath when I realized I was in my bedroom. I grabbed my phone looking at the time, 9:26 a.m.

I huffed, throwing the blankets off of me. I grabbed Diesel and walked out of the room. I kept my head down as I walked past everyone in the kitchen. I then walked to the living room, opening the sliding door and stepping out.
