**READ PLEASE**

A/N: Hello again! Yes, I'm making another Author's Note, but this one is actually important! I could easily say this in the bottom Author's Note, but it's just as easy to say it now! Well, tonight may be my last update, until probably Christmas night. I don't think I'll be able to update tomorrow night, as I'll probably be busy. I'll especially be busy Christmas Eve night, because of obvious reasons. I'm sure I'll have the time on Christmas night, though. Now that you know, let's get to reading!

Chapter 10: A New Idea

Kevin's PoV:

Harry and Marv look down at me after figuring out what I've been afraid to tell them. Feeling ashamed, I just bow my head, letting the tears fall to the wet pavement. If I'm lucky, these two will feel bad about what happened, and not kill me.

"Jesus Christ… I should've known…" mutters Harry.

"What are we gonna do, Harry?" fearfully, Marv asks.

"I… I don't know…"

"We can't kill him," Marv still doesn't want me to be killed, luckily. "Not after what happened to him. Even we're not that bad."

"I know, I know! Just let me think, alright?!" There seems to be a moment of silence, before a light bulb seems to go off in Harry's head. "Hey, wait a minute, Marv…"

"What?" curiously, Marv asks.

"What if we take him with us?"

"What?! No, Harry, we can't do that!"

"And why the hell not?!"

"Because, that's kidnapping, Harry!"

"It's not kidnapping, if we don't intend to hurt him!"

"Yes, it is, if he's being taken against his will!"

For once, Marv's thinking logically. As for them taking me against my will, I become fearful again, because I don't believe that they won't hurt me. I know these two—especially Harry—have a strong disliking for me, so I don't think they're not going to harm me.

"Well, I don't intend to hurt him!"

"How can you mean that?!" The two are now arguing. "A minute ago, you were willing to shoot him!"

"No, I wasn't! I just did that to get an answer out of him!" I shoot up my head at my two current captors, surprised. I really thought for sure that Harry was ready to kill me.

Marv glances at me, before looking back at Harry again. "You mean to tell me, you scared him, for no reason?"

"Well, yeah,"

"And you're admitting that?"

"Yeah. What's your point?"

"I thought you wanted to be threatening towards the kid. I thought you didn't like him… Didn't we try to kill him last year and earlier today?"

"Yes, I want to be threatening towards the kid. No, I don't like him… And, yes, we did try to kill him, but after what just happened, I can't kill him," Does Harry actually have a heart?

"Well, can't we just take him to the hospital or the Police Station, or something?"

False hopes start to rise, when Marv asks that. I don't even think Harry is that stupid to walk into a Police Station, but a hospital, maybe. Though, thinking about these two taking me away, I don't want to chance not seeing my family again, especially after what just happened. I have to run away.

"Fuck… Do you hear yourself, Marv? We can't just walk into the Police Station! That's just like turning ourselves in!"

"Well, what about the hospital?"

"We can't chance him blabbing his mouth. Having him come with us is our best bet,"

I finally speak up, weakly, "I… I wouldn't say anything, I swear…" Though, when I say that, I don't even know if I'm being truthful…

"Nobody's talking to you, kid," Harry tells me, before facing Marv again. Surprisingly, he didn't shout to me or speak firmly.

"This is me, we're talking about! I think I have a right to say!" The energy to raise my voice comes from nowhere, it seems, but it doesn't go too well with Harry, that's for sure.

"Don't you raise your voice at me, kid," His teeth are gritted again, and I hope I didn't ruin what good chances I had with them. "You know, this gun is loaded. I could shoot you, so that you'd be spitting gum out through your forehead." The gun is aimed at me again, and I really hope I didn't ruin this for myself.

"Come on, Harry, don't do this…" Marv, I swear, almost pleads.

"I'll do whatever I want, Marv. In the meantime, let's get this kid out of here,"

Harry isn't even able to move an inch, with a grip still on my arm, before Marv intervenes, "Can't we just take him to a hospital? Please?"

"I told you, he'll blab!"

"I promise, I won't say anything! Only about what happened, before you came!"

"Sorry, kid, but you know us too well to chance letting you go. Plus, you know what we did tonight, so that's even more that you shouldn't know, that you'd blab to the cops about,"

"No! I wouldn't! I swear!" I start to cry. "I just wanna go home!"

"'I just wanna go home!'" mocks Harry. He says he doesn't want to kill me, and I find that hard to believe. Though, if he's not even going to hurt me, I know he'll be verbally abusive to me.

"Come on, Harry, be nice. How would you like it, if something like that happened to you?" Again, I'm surprised Marv's thinking logically.

"Well, it didn't happen to me, so let's not worry about it, alright?" I got so caught up in what they were saying, I didn't take the time to try and run away, like I could've. If Harry was serious about not wanting to kill me, then I didn't have to worry about him shooting me, if I successfully got away. With a firm grip on my arm, and a gun hidden at my side, he tells me, with anger in his voice, "Let's go,"

Even though they claim to not want to hurt me, I'm still afraid. After what just happened to me, I just want to go home. Harry said he wasn't serious about killing me, but I believe the gun says otherwise; unless he's just trying to scare me. I know he doesn't want the gun to be seen, because, even on these empty streets (even with the homeless people), he could get in trouble. I don't know what to do, because I'm too afraid of these homeless people to try and call for help. I don't know what Harry would do if I did. So, as I'm being led out of the park, with my head still in a daze, I try to think of a way out of this situation…

To be Continued…

A/N: Thanks again! Again, I hope you liked it! What do you think will happen next? Harry decided to take Kevin, instead of letting him go! What do you think will happen? Where are they going to go? What are they going to do with the money? We'll see what happens! I could still use some ideas! I'd love to hear them! I also hope to gain more reviewers! :) Well, if I don't update by Christmas, I hope Christmas is just as great for you (with tons of Home Alone) as I hope it will be for me! See you guys! Stay safe, have fun, and have a merry Christmas! :D

PS: (Yay! More PS's! :D) I'm going to say this: another thing I found out from that video on Caulay's life story, was that his Father also wanted him to be in The Nutcracker play! He wasn't even supposed to be in it! So, the Father told the creators of the play somewhat how he wanted it to go, and Caulay ended up being the Nutcracker Prince! Thank you, Kit Culkin, for scarring me for life…
