horror and kisses

        Larry smirked as he began to beat James I shut my eyes because I didn’t want to see James hurt. Suddenly everything was quiet I opened my eyes and I notice Larry was sitting in a chair Margret on his lap. Then I looked at James he was looking all around the room his eyes landed on me but never stopped he kept franticly looking around the cellar, he glanced at me and his eyes looked apologetic and held a certain sympathy.

        Then James eyes landed on Larry and James glared at Larry angrily "WHERE IS SHE? WHAT HAVE YOU DONE WITH ALEXIS? WHO IS THIS NEW GIRL?" my mouth dropped slightly he doesn’t recognize me Larry smirked "oh Alexis? I was getting tired of her so I killed her and got myself a spunky red head." James went big in shock "WAIT WHAT!!!! YOU KILLED HER?!!!!! But why" James screamed as he tried to break free of his chains and charge Larry.

        James eyes welled with tears as he fought harder to try and break free but he couldn’t the chains on his wrist and legs were strong and the wall was stronger. Larry laughed at James "oh calm down boy. Chill out, she’s fine." James started to relax and Larry continued to talk. "Ha, I’m shocked you didn’t even recognize her, I never killed her she is sitting right there."

        Larry exclaimed pointing to me James looked from Larry to me "I’m so sorry Alexis. I’m sorry that I didn’t recognize you" I nodded its ok I understand, don’t beat yourself up about it. Then he looked over at Larry again "please tell me why you cut off her hair and made her look different?" Larry laughed "well no matter what I did to Alexis you still found her attractive. So I gave her a whole new look, Well James what’s the verdict? Is she still attractive or not? And tell the truth!" Larry said as he aimed the pistol at me.

         James glanced at me and I raised an eyebrow at him "well? i want to hear this too" he gulped then turned back to Larry "well I-I do prefer how she looked before the red hair and the dress. BUT! Her inner beauty overpowers her outward beauty so even if she looked like a beast which you don't. I would still be in love with her. whats on the inside is what counts." I smiled "nice save" i mumbled with slight sarcasm Larry grunted.

         And suddenly there was a knock on the upstairs door Margret got up to answer it. Two minutes later she runs back down into the cellar "LARRY! It’s the fuzz. They want to talk to us about Alexis!" Margret looked panicked and sounded worried Larry groaned in annoyance.

         James smirked "let them find out about us" Larry glared at James "you better not have had anything to do with this! Or else" Larry threated, as he took off his dirty socks and shoved one of them in our mouths we gaged. On the taste of his socks then Larry quickly double taped our mouth shut. Before he walked up the stairs with Margret to talk to the cops.

         I heard him tell Margret to lie through her teeth or he will have to beat her and he claimed he doesn’t want to do that to her again. before he shut the cellar door behind them. Wait again? What does Larry mean by again? This is my chance to get free so who cares what Larry meant. James and I started to scream as loud as we could but our screaming was muffled. I watched the clock nervously; 10 minutes later Larry came back into the cellar.

         "Haha, the police are so stupid, they came asking a bunch of questions like: ‘how are you guys dealing with being adoptive parents’ of course I told them that you have adjusted so well and that you have accepted us as your parents. Then they asked if they could talk to you I told them you were out at a friend’s house. I bet-cha zack called didn’t he? Well it’s not like he has an evidence against me it’s my word against his. The cops can’t do anything hahaha"

        aw man this sucks Larry has a point without evidence you can’t prove anything. Now how am I to get my freedom back? I glanced over at James and he was trying to break his chains and attack Larry. Larry smirked and slapped James to calm him down "you told me you would be a good boy as long as I don’t kill Alexis. Well you have been quite the naughty boy. So maybe I will kill her then hmmm what do you think James? Should I kill her?"
