Joker's Ace (sequel to Joker's weakness)

Chapter 34: I fucked up

He came back with a remote. "Guess who's on T.V again?" Blade asked. I sighed. "Come on." He said then walked back out. I followed him. On the T.V it had the news lady. She was reading off a paper. "Joker once again robs-" she stops and looks at someone behind the camera.

"I swear they are never going to catch him. It seems like I'm reading stuff like this everyday." She says then looks back at the paper. I looked at Blade. "I get it. He's not looking for me. He thinks I'm dead anyway." I say. Blade smiled then turned off the T.V.

"Come on. Time for bed." He said then opened the bedroom door. I stood up. I'm not 5 I don't need a bedtime. But I'm pretty tired. You know being close to death is tiring. "Your not gonna leave me in the basement?" I asked.

He sighed. "Just hurry up and get in here before I change my mind." He replied. I went into the bedroom. He jumped in bed and took his shirt off. I swear! I mean he isn't that bad looking. But keep your shirt on! I don't want none of that. He got under the covers.

He padded the bed next to him and opened his arms. "Come to Daddy." He said with a smile. I rolled my eyes as I walked over to the bed. "What's with you and the daddy thing?" I asked as I got in bed. "I know you hate it so I do it." He replied.

I lay down on the other side of the bed. "Come closer." He tells me. I scoot a little closer. He pulled me closer and put his arm around me. "Can't have you going anywhere." He whispered in my ear. I cringed. He's to close. I hate it when anyone gets this much in my space.

After only about 10 minutes he was softly snoring. Very very very slowly I moved away from him. I picked his arm off of me and lightly put it down. Okay I'm about to be out this bitch. I smiled to myself. I slowly got out of the bed being careful as possible. I'm like a ninja. When I stood up out of bed I heard light laughter. I sighed as I looked back. Blade was wide awake.

"Where you going?" He asked. I pointed to the bathroom. "Pee." I replied. He nodded his head but stared at me like he knew I was up to no good. I went into the bathroom and locked the door. I stared at myself in the mirror. I need a new plan.

I could get back and bed and wait for him to sleep or make a run for it now. I can't out run him. When he gets me back he'll beat the shit out of me. "Pussy." I said softly to myself in the mirror. Maybe he can't out run me. No he can. He's in good shape.

Well I guess I won't know if I don't try. He's already did the worst he could do to me. I slowly opened the door. I was ready to bolt but I noticed he was sound asleep again. Yes! I quietly opened the bedroom door. The door squeaked a little. I looked back to see if he woke up. Nope!

I continued to go out the door and close it. I quietly went to the front door and opened it. At least 2 foot of snow was on the ground. My smile faded. I'll be fine. Bullshit Ace your gonna die!

I turned around when I heard the bedroom door open. I bolted into the snowy forest. I looked back as I ran to see Blade just standing by the door smiling and shaking his head. I looked forward and continued. I started shaking from being cold.

Why didn't he run and get me? Whatever. I'm out that's all that matters. I don't even have shoes on. My feet are freezing. I kept running through. I don't ever want to see him. I don't know where I'm going to go or how far I'm going to get.

I stopped running when I couldn't anymore. I held my arms as I walked. My feet are going to freeze off. To top it off it started to snow. A lot! It was so much I could barely see anything. Maybe I shouldn't have left. No, I did the right thing. I fell to my knees. Wait no I fucked up. I can't go no more. Dumbass! You should have stayed.
