Colby
Sam
Aaron
And I
All sitting upstairs
In Colby's room
Just laughing
Doing silly things
All for Sam's video
I've never laughed as much as I have before
Until we heard the doorbell ring
Everyone looked at each other
Confused
"I'll get it." Colby said
For once I didn't mind Colby leaving me with these people
They've grown on me
Made me feel safe
Although I watched Colby walk out the room
And heard him walk down the stairs
I didn't worry
These people made me feel safe
Accepted
I liked that feeling
It wasn't often I got to feel that way
That was until I heard yelling from downstairs
Sam and Aaron looked at each other
Rushing out of the room
Sam stopped at the doorway
Looking back at me
"Nate, stay here." He said
Already out of breath
I didn't know what to do
So I listen to him
I quickly closed the door
I didn't bother locking it
But I put my ear up to the door
Listening closing
More screaming
I couldn't tell what was going on
Who was screaming?
I was so scared
And so confused
I didn't understand
That happens often
Until I heard multiple steps rushing up the stairs
"Where is he?" Someone said
"Huh? Where is my son?"
No
Oh God No
No no no no no no
This wasn't happening
Not today
Not now
NO
"Calm down!" I heard someone yell
"Let's talk this out first!"
"We didn't kidnap your son!"
What was going on?
"Where is he?" Another voice
"Stop! STOP!"
I heard rushing to Colby's room
The room I was in
Before I could react
