My Life is Far from Free

Chapter 17

"She is my bestfriend. I have never had anyon like her in my life and I plan on keeping her there." A tiny whisper that I reconized as Jacks voice.

"Well, she is my girlfriend, I love her and always will. No matter how many times she punches me." Jeff confessed and Jack gave a small laugh. I smiled a little and they saw. "She is awake. I guess we suck at whispering." Jeff kissed my forehead and I flickered my eyes open smiling like a dork.

"Good morning! " I laughed.

"Good morning," they both sang.

"So, now that you are up Jack and I made up some rules." I hesitated and stared between Jack and Jeff. Rules? No. No, I hate rules. Rules about what?

"To keep you safe." Jack added like he read my mind.

Jeff continued. ", "First, You can not leave the house. You can not." I tried to argue but Jeff placed a hand over my mouth silencing me. "We will grab food or whatever for you. So there is no reason for you to o outside.Ow!" I bit his hand. He took his hand away from my mouth and I started to argue. One of the many things I am good at!

"What about some fresh air? What if I get clastraphobic and need to go outside?"

They thought about this for a minute an nodded at eachother. "Then one of us must be with you. You  cannot leave without us. Do you hear me Chis? You cannot-"

"Yes Yes I hear you!" I inturrupted Jack. I slumped back down. Why is this happeng? I guess I should've seen it coming when I planned to kill Gale.

Jeff's phone rang. He answered it. Woulldn't any normal person?

"Hey!, he is awake? Temporarily? hmm okay thanks Doc." Sounds like and interesting conversation, doesn't it? I looked at him with pleading eyes and he nodded. "They doctor says that kid, um, Alex is alive and awake. The poison wasn't enough to kill him but was enough to kill him temperarilly.".

"Damn!" I cursed, maybe a little too loud. Both of the boys looked at me and I sighed. "I want him dead!"

"The doctor says the poison was enough to drain his memory so you are clear of any suspection. And you will not go out there and kill him. We need you here, safe until this case rests. "

I gave a big long sigh to show I was annoyed. Ho could he not be dead? I put a whole crap load of poison in him. I was so sure!  I guess I needed a tad more.

Nothing happened. For the rest of the day, for the rest of the week, for the rest of the month. It was the worst time oof my entire life. I was not even allowed to go outside to grab the paper! I mean seriously? It is just the paper.  Jack's parents decided they wanted to go somewhere else before they would've come home, so they are going to be gone for a couple more weeks.Lucky me, I get to stay here like a caged dog! Don't they see what they are doing to me? I am dying of anti-being-social or whatever it is called. I need to see people besides Jeff and Jack. I do love them, don't get me wrong, it is just I need to see other faces, hear other voices (besides for the television actors). Each day it's the same; get up, eat cerial,watch television, training lessons with Jeff (yes, we still do that. It's the highlight of my day),Complain to Jack and Jeff that this is totally and completely not fair and they will reply with I braught this on myself.  I guess that is true but still.  Then, I have to cook dinner for those two meanies because they cant cook for themselves. They go outside and eat and talk about who knows what while im stuck inside. On special days, or if I cooked something really good I am allowed outside with them, nu not for long. Still, I love the air and even just one minute brightens up my sad and lonley day. Rules suck!
