"This is just getting sad," he said, sounding bored when he really should be begging for her mercy at this point

"Look, Munchkin," he said, placing his hands on her hps as he tried to pull her off of hi to have to end this now"

"No!" she snapped, trying to wrap her legs around his waist but he wasn’t having that He gripped her hps tightly and s away, but she refused to release her grip around his neck

The bastard was going down!

"Are you going to let go?" he asked, sighing heavily as she ed to block her once again

"No!"

"Fine," he said as he pulled her off and tossed her away, earning an eh squeal from her as she landed on theher hair out of her face so that she could glare at the et another chance"

"You’ve had ten already Give it up, Munchkin In a few hours you’ll be leaving for your own good"

Just as she was about to explain that she wasn’t going anywhere a cell phone went off Without another word Chris pulled out that sleek black cell phone that she’d love to get her hands on and left the roo the door behind hi to get her answers, but then decided that she could probably find everything she needed to know on the internet After one last glare at the door she hauled ass to get the hell out of there

She opened theand screen as quietly as she could and carefully cliht and perched on the sill Sing hard, she did her best to convince herself that the distance to the large oak tree branch that she was currently pining all her hopes and dreams on was less than six feet away When her brain reminded her that she wasn’t an idiot and that it was at least ten feet away and that she was going to fall flat on her face she hesitated

Of course she’d rather take her chances and fall then put up with people pushing her around, hanging her upside down, dragging her off to watchher chocolate stolen

That lost thought gave her pause Now that she thought about it, she realized that they probably wouldn’t give her any chocolate

A life without chocolate?

She’d never survive, she realized as she sucked in a deep breath and shoved away frooing to reach the branch she squeezed her eyes shut and hoped for the best and for once luck ith her Thankfully she didn’t break her arround, but if the pain was any indication she may have actually broken her ass

As quietly as she could she clih her right cheek She was actually quite proud that she hadn’t screamed one or two choice words It had been a close call, but then she re With that thought in an to wobble as quickly as she could towards the backyard and what she hoped was freedom

Not even twenty steps later someone sounded the alarm, literally She bit her lip as she quickened her pace as the blaring alarm threatened to make her head explode She was about twenty yards froe of the woods when she heard so towards her fro whoever just wrecked her plans, she abruptly turned and ran towards the left side of the house

When the ground suddenly gave out beneath her she opened her mouth to scream only to find it suddenly filled with ice cold chlorine flavored water With a choked gasp she broke the surface of the ice cold water and swam towards what she hoped was the side of the pool
