Spot layed down and gently wrapped his arms around me. "I'm sorry." He whispered before I fell into a calm and peaceful sleep.

NEXT DAY

I fluttered my eyes open and saw an empty space next to me. I frowned. "Don't worry." Spot chuckled. "I'm right here." I looked up at him and he was in his regular Newsie attire. I gave him a small smile and slowly sat up. "Woah, woah, woah. Youse is stayin here taday. I don't want ya gettin hoit again. Just wait till you heal..please?" Spot said laying me back down. His eyes were pleading. Looking like storms were going on there. "Fine.." I give in. Spot smiles, kisses my cheek and heads out of the room. I give a sad sigh to myself, wishing he would've stayed with me longer. I here feet tapping up the stairs and a few seconds later, I see Mush open the door. "Mush?" I ask with a confused expression. "It's nice to see you too." Mush said crossing his arms. "Ha-Ha. Look, I'm happy yer here but what if Spot catches ya?" I ask worriedly. "He won't. He let me up here." Mush said. I just smile at him. Mush sat at the foot of my bed. "So. Waddaya doin here. Aren't youse supposed ta be sellin?" Mush asked. "Yea, but Spot sat me back down and said, I don't want ya gettin hoit, just wait till you heal..please?" I quoted Spot in a weird voice with a noticed smile hiding behind my face. Mush looked at me with surprised and happy eyes. "What?" I asked in confusion. "Spot Conlon. The king of Brooklyn. SAID PLEASE?!" Mush said in complete surprise now. "Uhm..yea." I said blushing. I snap out of my thoughts. "Wait. Mush. What's his last name again?" I ask. "Uh.. Conlon?" Mush says. Conlon. That sounded so familiar. But I can't put my finger on what it is. I just slowly nod. "Why are you so interested in his last name?" Mush asks. "Dunno." I lie. "Ok. Well Ise betta get goin. Jack doesn't know I'm here." Mush said getting up. "Make sure ta pay Blink back." I smirked. Mush blushed and left the room.
I don't know how long I've been staring st the wall because I drifted off back to sleep...

SPOT'S POV

I hate the feeling of leaving Racetrack alone. I know Mush left by now and I hope Race is not in trouble or anything. I only have ten papes left. They were not selling at all so I just threw them away. I wasn't doing my best today because my mind always drifted back to Race. I couldn't take it anymore. I had to see him. I speed walked in between the crowds of people and finally reached the docks. I swung the lodging house door open and flew upstairs. I slowly creaked my bedroom door open and Race was just laying there. I panicked. I went up to him with tears in my eyes and shook his shoulders. "RACE. RACE!!" I yelled with a raspy voice. "Mmph.." Is all I heard Race say. "RACE. DON'T DIE ON ME!!" I yelled again. "IM NOT DYIN IM SLEEPIN." Race replied laughing. "Oh.." I said feeling stupid and wiping away drip tears that were left on my face. "Stop worrying so much." Race said with a small smile. "I can't." I replied.
"I'm fine." Race gave me serious eyes.
I slowly nodded and layed next to him.
