Prompt: He kept absolutely still as the footsteps got louder.

muttering told him the search was still on.
The footsteps passed and he let out a satisfied grunt.

blinked at the sudden onslaught.
“Come on, sweetheart, it’s time for your bath.” Mom sighed
as she plucked a pair of dirty underwear off his head. “You know the hamper is
not a fort.”
Foiled again!
*Flash Fiction is fiction under a thousand words. I participate in a weekly prompt that's limited to a mere one hundred words. That's crazy short. You can check out the other participants' stories via their links on the WonHundred Word Wednesdays Facebook page here.*
So cute! Well done!
