Silent Tears

Chapter 35: Sweet Dreams

Spot P.O.V.

My arm is tightly wrapped around Race's torso, walking with him as we head to the Bronx. I notice that Ace went ahead with Morris, but I don't see them anymore. Eh, I'm sure they're fine. 

I then see Ace carrying Morris, as he snuggles into the crook of Ace's neck. I chuckle. I then hear Hotshot fall to the ground. We all turn around to see him on the ground dying laughing. "AHAHAHAHAHAH! HE...AHA...GOT....AHAHAHA.....TOGETHER.....WIT....HAHAHA MORISSSSS! AHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!" I then walk over to him and whack himself with his cap. He stood up, all his laughter out.

Ace and Morris's face's are bright red. Ace then flipped Shot off. He then put his hand on his heart looking offended. "Spot?" "Wit pleasure Morris." I whacked Hotshot again upside the head. "I'se sorry but you'se always said dat you'se would only date a newsie and..AHAHA....here you'se are....AHAHAHA!!!" I whack him the third time. "Would you'se stop doing that?" "Yea when you'se shut up!"

It's getting darker out and I can tell that everyone is getting tired. I'm pretty sure that Morris has already passed out on Ace. Racer is especially tired. "Racer get on me back." "What!? Why Spottie?" He asked in a VERY whiny voice. I gave him a look and he climbed onto my back. I take one of my hands and run it threw his soft blonde curls. "Sleep lovey." And that he did. he instantly fell asleep. 

Half the boys are asleep on their lovers backs. Morris on Ace's back, Racer on mine, Jack on the mouth's, Mush on Blink's, Sarah on Oscar's, Ike on Hotshot's, Specs on Romeo's, JoJo on Mike's, and Henry on Tommy Boy's. And of course the best friend duo, Elmer on Button's back.

The one's awake are quietly talking to one another.

I put my hand back threw Racer's locks. "I'se love ya Racer. Sweet dreams." I whispered.
