   Summary

   A part of him hoped that Finney just regretted what he did so badly that he was getting upset about it, even though he was probably just upset to still be stuck here with Albert.

   He wasn't stupid. He knew that Finney hated being here. But he also knew that Finney was adjusting to being here better than any of the other boys were. In a few more months, maybe the basement would feel more comforting to Finney than it probably did right now.

   Albert reached out and moved a stray curl away from Finney’s face. His boy flinched away and squeezed his eyes shut. This didn't bother the man, though, as he ran his fingers through the teenager's soft curls in a way that would've been soothing for Finney if it were anyone else doing it to him.

   “I can’t trust you to be alone with anything again." He muttered to Finney, even though he wasn't paying attention. "Just imagine what would have happened if this was a work day. You would probably be...” He trailed off, letting out a shaky breath, the unsaid words filling silence.

   You would probably be dead.

   Or

   Finney is tired of waiting for a chance to escape. so he decides to make it happen.
