A/N: Well, hi! I wasn't expecting to update so soon, but it's been a lazy day, after the Women's March we had this morning (in a snowstorm)... So, I guess, since I have nothing better to do, I thought I'd update! XD I think I know where I'm going with this, so we'll have to see! Let's go! :D
Chapter 14: Escape III
Kevin's PoV:
I rush down out of the room, up the hallway, and down the stairs, like I did, just a couple hours ago. I stop in my tracks, because I just remembered, that I left my outerwear upstairs. Feeling hesitant, I look up the stairs, debating whether or not I should go retrieve my items.
I then shrug it off to not worry about it. My mission is to leave this place. Even though Marv seems harmless right now, he could turn nasty later. Ted Bundy was as charming as anyone, and he ended up a complete psycho… I don't expect any less from Marv, especially how he thinks he's my Father.
My mind is running a mile a minute, trying to figure out what to do. My plan was to do what I did last year, but I just don't think I have the items to do such things with. I look around, frantically. There's gotta be something I can use…
"There's always a way…" I mutter to myself.
I keep saying this, as I continue looking around for something, anything that will help me thwart Marv. Though, I realize, the longer I look, the more of a chance Marv has to find me in the act.
I rush over to the kitchen, knowing that all the best goodies are in there. I open the fridge, thinking a nice cream pie to the face would be a great idea! I open the fridge, and, to my amusement and luck, I find just what I'm looking for. My eyes widen, as I grab for the pie. I almost feel like it's been placed here, just for conveniency.
Despite my surprise at the conveniency of this pie, my nerves are rising, and I'm even beginning to tremble. I'm trying to make a common gag prank, but, on the inside, my nerves are screaming, "Get me out of here!"
Just as I'm about to turn around with the pie, I hear, "What are you doing?" I nearly jump out of my skin, dropping the pie back on the fridge's shelf, in the process. I whip around to see a half-asleep Marv, looking at me. He doesn't look pissed or anything; just really tired.
"Umm… I'm just getting a drink of water," I say the first thing that comes to mind.
"Oh…" Marv tiredly rubs his hair and yawns. He slides his feet across the floor, over to the sink. "We just use tap water here. No Brita," Marv yawns again, as he grabs a small glass out of the cupboard. He then fills it with water. I become hopeful that he's filling it for me, but soon become disappointed, when he takes a swig of it himself. Smacking his lips, Marv looks into the glass. "Oh, sorry… I guess that was for you, wasn't it?" Despite my tremble and my nerves trying to calm themselves, I actually find this situation with Marv kind of funny. I even let it show by laughing a little. "Here, I'll get you some more," Marv fills the same glass with water, and the only thing I can think of, is how much I don't want to use a glass that's had Marv's lips on it. Once he finishes filling the glass, he slides his feet across the kitchen floor again, ready to head back upstairs, with the glass of water, in-hand. I'm baffled by the situation. "Alright. Let's go. I've got your water," Is Marv always this out of it, when he wakes up during the night? My heart falters, because Marv has unknowingly caught me trying to escape. I could make a run for it right now, and he probably wouldn't know any better. I eye the main door, which is visible from the kitchen, then look back at Marv. I keep doing this, feeling conflicted as to what to do… "Hey, kid, are you coming?" he turns back to me and questions, while yawning.
"Yep. I'm coming…" I disappointedly answer, as I follow Marv out of the room and back up the stairs. This won't be my last try. I'll try again sometime soon; perhaps tomorrow…
To be Continued…
…
A/N: Thanks again, folks! :D Well, that chapter wasn't so bad! The length was OK, too! Even though we have a Marv and Kate chapter next, what do you think will happen in the next Kevin and Marv chapter? I'm still trying to think it over. Well, I guess I'll see you soon, with the next PoV! Ciao! XD
