Chapter thirteen
~Keaton's POV~
I had never felt heart break before. But now that I felt it, I understood. The way your heart seems to clench its self, harder and harder, you feel as it could explode.
But I understand. Alexander had to, he was protecting Madison and I. But hearing it, hearing Justin brag of how he could bring more pleasure to Ally than I ever could. Hearing Ally enjoy himself. It hurt. When it cuts you up this deep, it's hard to find a way to breath. But I forgive Ally. I love him, not even having sex with Justin could change this.
Madison shakes against me, worry and guilt hits me that she's had to listen to this, get dragged into a serial killers web.
"I miss my mommy!" She whispers.
I sniffle. "I miss her too."
She rubs the back of her head on my back. "I love you Keaton. If I had to die, I'm glad it's with you."
How can she accept this? Say such mature and calm things? She's only seven for gods sake!
"Madison, we're going to live! I trust Ally!"
Madison sighs. "He's been in the bathroom for hours. The sounds coming from there are the same from earlier."
I feel my heart squeeze and my lip tremble. "He-he's doing what he has to do."
Madison suddenly lets out a soft squeal, scaring me. "There's a knife at the end of the bed. We can scoot there and get it! Cut the string!"
I nod. It's better to try. "Ok." But there's at least six feet separating us from the knife. Could we be fast enough? "Go now!"
We test it out first, lifting our body's and moving it over, before falling back down. We only move a few inches, but it's progress.
"Don't give up!" Madison growls.
We continue to scoot, ignoring the shoe strings digging into our wrist and rubbing them raw. Soon we reach it. Madison wraps her fingers awkwardly around the handle. "Scoot back! We can risk it now."
She nods and we make it back to the wall again. Both of us are mentally and physically drained. We've dried up our tears and gave up crying.
Madison slips the knife under her bottom just as the bathroom door opens.
Justin skips into the room with Ally following close behind him. Ally sends me a look of apology and sighs.
I watch as Justin suddenly stabs Ally with a needle and Ally fall asleep suddenly. Justin turns to me. "Could you hear us? Could you hear how he enjoyed it?" He hissed.
I simply look to the floor. Justin laughs and crawls into bed.
Madison and I wait. We wait for hours. "Now!" I whisper. She gathers the knife and slowly but determinedly starts to cut the shoe strings.
I feel them start to loosen and pull. Relief flows through me when they fall away. I turn to Madison. "Whatever happens to me, run. Just run to the nearest store or shop. People. Call 911! I love you." I whisper. I pull her into a hug and sneak to the door, I open it as quietly as possible and let Madison run out before closing it behind her.
I will get my Ally back.
