Chapter 27 - I Escaped

Madison Lowe.

"Can you not?" I yelled at my sister. The hotel room we were currently staying in was small and disgusting, my sister's attitude wasn't helping. I was pissed off and miserable. I had been away from my daughter and my so called boyfriend for a week.

"I can't deal with you if this is what you keep doing! Just behave! It's not that hard!" I yelled. "Go to-" I stopped myself. I would tell her to go to her room but I realized that this hotel room was just that, a room. Bed and couch, didn't even have a toilet or shower. Right as I was screaming at her, someone knocked on our door.

I was ready to shut the door closed again when I saw Smith on the other side but he quickly blocked my plans with the help of his foot. "Let me explain."

"No!" I cried out, feeling my breakdown grow closer. "You've ruined everything! Do you see this?" I opened the door up to invite his curious eyes to inspect the mess of our hotel room.

"Damn. This is way out of your leaugue."

He fixed his eyes back at me. "I came to apologize. I'll make everything okay again. I'll have everything go back to normal once I get the chance to have a word with your boyfriend. Promise."

"I'll believe it when I see it. I want him to come here and personally talk to me when you're done. Can you fix that for me? I don't care if you have to lie."

"Yes, ma'am."

It was 11 pm and I was giving up. Smith wasn't serious about what he said and I felt stupid to believe that Jason would actually show up.

I sighed as I rolled over in the tiny, uncomfortable bed. I looked down at my sister who was sleeping by my side. It made me giggle how she was snoring a bit, probably caused by an upcoming cold. "I love you." I whispered.

Watching her sleep made me more tired by every second passing. Finally, I thought. I could finally fall asleep and just not be in reality for a minute.

With my eyes closed but my mind still wide awake, I heard steps outside our hotel room door. The hotel was pretty much deserted and for someone to walk around our door made my heart skip a beat. The goosebumps spread on my arms when someone's hand accidentally touched the door. Every move was loud and clear through these thin walls.

I closed my eyes and hoped for it to be gone as soon as possible. All of sudden the door quietly opened up. It was impossible to get in here without a key. Who could possibly have one?

Steps neared the bed and I felt myself trying so hard not to breathe so that I wouldn't blow our cover. A tear fell, followed by another one.

"Maddie?" A soft voice called and I released all the fear with my breath.

"Jason?" I responded.

When I opened my eyes to find the silhuette I would recoginize from a mile away, I flew up and out of bed. I jumped into his arms, where he safely caught me. The hug lasted for a while, probably one of our longest hugs ever. When we finally pulled back and just looked at each other, I saw the saddness in his eyes, the saddness of hurting me, us. "Babe," He breathed into the air and I didn't let him continue any further before I pressed my lips against his. His arms snook around my waist as he put emotion into the kiss.

Blossom giggled from behind which made me laugh into the kiss. "Ew." She exclaimed and Jason couldn't take it anymore, he pulled away to let out a laugh as well. He put me down and I understandingly stepped aside for him to spend some time with Blossom.

Jason McCann.

I put my baby girl down after finally having her in my arms again. I slowly walked over to the bed where Blossom slowly started to cry. "Aw," I tried to wipe her tears away but I couldn't. "Are these happy tears or sad tears?" I got no answer. "Happy?"
