The next morning when I woke up I knew I was no longer at Joe's bar sleeping in her guest room because the bed was too soft. The next thing I took notice of was that I was in some type of basket, but when I looked up and saw a bunch of baby toys over my head I knew Cas and Sam got me from Joe. The only way I could figure out they got Joe to agree to let them take me was to convince her that they were my family.

That was when I realized I made a mistake running away from them. In the back of my mind I thought, 'why couldn't I just gain their trust and then ran away? But I also knew I was never leaving my parents sight again. I must have made a lot of noise because the next thing I knew Sam was picking me up. “Oh poor baby, you are burning up from your flu. I hope you know what a silly thing you did by running away from us, baby boy, because after you get better I will take you to the doctor to make sure you are over your flu and that you won't be able to run away again.”

In the back of my mind I couldn't figure out what he meant by that. While I was lost in my thoughts Sam had carried me to my nursery where he changed my diaper. He left me in just that, saying, “Since you are running a fever I will not get you dressed, so let's go get you a bottle of milk. Then I will put you in your baby bouncer where you will not leave mine or Cas' sight until you can prove you will not run away again. You will sleep in our room until you earn the right to sleep in your own room,” he added in a babyish tone.

So that's what Sam did. He fed me my bottle of milk then burped me and put me in my baby bouncer. He started up my vibrators, making sure they were going. Sam then went to work on some papers that he needed to get done for work at his law firm. That is how I spent my whole day, either sleeping or looking around the room or at the toys over my head. I kept thinking about playing with them. Occasionally Sam would check to see if I needed a diaper change or give me medicine for my fever.

I knew in the back of my mind I should have never run way in the first place.
