(Same day but now it's night time)

I woke up from the little nap from blasting music from upstairs. They're probably breaking everything up there. But jokes on them cause the neighbors hate and I mean hate party's in the neighborhood. So maybe in stead of calling the police maybe they will call Sophia or Madison. They have they're numbers too.

Then Sophia or Madison can save me. Then they will put the boys down here instead of me. Yeah I know I'm overthinking. They're probably just going to call the police. Whatever. But I'll keep some faith for the Sophia or Madison plan.

Anyways I'm freakin starving. Like they can't freakin think I'm not going to be hungry in here. I already ate all the granola bars.

Right when I'm about to get up I hear the basket doors lock click. I look up and see Luke. He had a black hoodie on and some black sweatpants on. He had the hood on. He had a duffle bag. Not suspicious at all. He walks over to me and gives me the duffle bag.
And sits next to me.

"Don't tell anyone" he says as he unzips the duffle bag.

He pulls out a hoodie and gives it to me. I put it on really fast. It was a plain white hoodie and it was for sure his. He pulls out a blanket and a pillow that was on my bed. I rapped my arms around him and gave him a big hug. He hugged back.

"Thank you you so much" I thank him. He just smiles back at me.

He pulled out another pillow and blanket and it looked like it was from his room. I furrowed me eyebrows.

"I don't want to be up there with them" he says with a shaky voice.

"Why" I ask him. He sounded like he was scared but why.

He doesn't answer. He pulls down his hood and turn his head to the left and i see a read hand print on his right cheek. Why would they hurt him.

"Why would they hurt you" I ask him hoping I'm not going to far into their business.

"I was trying to be nice and Dylan slapped me and told me to leave the house cause I didn't belong with them" he said looking down. I knew he had tears in his eyes. I hugged him. He hugged back.

" You don't fit in with them because your better than them Luke" I tell him.

"They want me to be mean to everyone but why do you have to hurt others to be cool and popular" he asks with his head on my shoulder.

"Hey, you don't need to be mean to be cool and popular. Maybe that's the way they think that's the way to do it but they won't get anywhere with being mean" i say.

"But you are being nice and friendly will get you places that they will never reach being mean. So you should show them and be the leader" I continued.

"what if they hurt me" he asks me in a low voice.

"Then they will get consequences" I tell him.

"Okay but will you do it with me I don't want to do that alone" he asks.

"Of course I'll do it with you" I reply.

"And thank you for being nice to me unlike the other boys" I thank him with a small smile.

"Right back at ya" he says with a bigger smile.

I heard the loud music stop for upstairs right after Luke finished talking. Maybe I won't be stuck in here forever. I mean it's better in here with him but I don't want to live in here for the rest of my life.

The nob of the basement door jiggled for a minute then open. There stood Greyson. He looked a bit worried but he also looked scared. I wonder what's going on. As I'm wondering he speaks.

"Come on we need you guys out of here fast" he says. Now it makes sense he they don't want to get in trouble for having us in the basement. Even though Luke came by himself.

Luke and I got up from the floor and walked out of the basement with Greyson. Hearing voices from the other room as we get closer. Soon we are in the living room and I see a police officer and our neighbors. Mr and mrs. johnes. Let me tell you they looked mad as hell!!

One time my dad had a Christmas party and the music was very low just on a little bit to set the tone. To set a very fancy setting. The Jones called the police cause the music was supposedly so loud that their hearing aids came out their ears and the music was barley on. So let's see how they thought about this blaring music.

"So Mr. is not home so we are goin to let you off with a warning but I don't want to hear a call about this house again. I got many complaints from residents living in this neighborhood and they were not happy about this-" The police officer says but is cut off by Mrs Jones.

"I can't believe this my ears are ringing and I can't even hear myself speak you children should be a shamed of yourself's" Mrs Jones said holding her ears with a scrunched up face. To be honest I feel bad for her. It looks like it really hurt her ears. She never had looked so much in pain.

" I can't believe this either me and my wife where just trying to relax and this is what we get" Mr Jones also buts in. He literally has a red face right now. I think he's about to blow up.

"I'm so sorry we didn't think the music was that loud but I can assure you it won't happen again" Landon says sarcastically but I think the police officer and the Jones believed it. Gosh old people. Okay the police officer isn't that old but you know what I mean.

"Okay remember this is a warning if I get another call about this house being to loud it probably won't be pretty" the officer says opening the front door for the Jones and him to leave. As they walk out Ryder says a sorry and bye. He locks the door and turns around. He looks around and his eyes stop when they meet mine....
