"I think I better walk you home!"
"Oh yes. Home. My bed is calling me. Do you hear it? Butterfly, come, Butterfly!"
"Yeah, right!" Gangster just shook his head. Suddenly Butterfly began to laugh and couldn't stop.
"Tonight Santa Claus is coming. Do you think we're gonna see him?"
"How much did you drink?" Butterfly looked at him and made a puppy face.
"Booboo, you aren't a little bit funny tonight Gangsta!" Butterfly complained.
"You gotta have to loosen up!"
"I think you have loosen up for the both of us already." Butterfly stopped and hold on Gangster's arm. She looked up into his eyes.
"Are you mad at me?" she asked scared. It seemed as if she was becoming sober. Gangster took of his cap and ran his hand through his hair.
"No."
"Good." She wrapped her arms around his neck.
"Because I have to say you something. I love ya Gangsta!" She leaned forward to kiss him but Gangster turned away.
"Did you say this to Ash too?"
"Ash?"
"The guy which you almost has eaten in Irving hall!"
"no!" She shook her head.
"Because I love you!"
"Come on we've gotta go!" Gangster pulled her behind not giving her the chance to say anything. When they arrived the lodging house Gangster helped Butterfly to get up the stairs and opened the door.
"Where's your room?"
"Huh?" Butterfly stopped and looked very confused.
"Well, I could you leave here but I thought your bed would be a better place to oversleep your drunkenness." Butterfly nodded and pointed upstairs.
"Second door on the left." Gangster carried her up to her room.
"Gangsta, you didn't answer me!" Butterfly complained as he sat her down on her bed. He looked asking at her.
"I said I love ya and you didn't say anything!" Butterfly looked hurt.
"Let us talk about this tomorrow when you're sober again."
"No. Now! I wasn't as sober as now in my entire life!!!" Butterfly hold his arm and looked at him begging to say something. Gangster took a seat next to her on the bed and brushed a strand out of her face.
"Gangsta?!" Gangster smiled at her and leaned slowly forward.
"Is this enough for an answer?" he asked right before his lips met hers.

Skittery was desperate. He had searched Snowflake all night but hadn't found her. He sat down on a table to rest when he suddenly saw her. He stood up and walked to her.
"Snowflake!"
"Skittery!" Snowflake looked away from him.
"Snow?"
„Please leave me alone, go."
"But…why?"
"I was so stupid! I should have listened to my friends!" Skittery turned her to face him and lifted her head, so she had to look at him. He swallowed when he saw her injuries.
"This damned…" Snow smiled weakly.
"It's alright. He already got what he deserved." Skittery touched carefully her bruised eye.
"Does it hurt much?" He asked and looked concerned.
"Not anymore." Snowflake's face was tearstained. Skittery reached in his pocket and pulled out a small packet wrapped in a newspaper. He gave it Snowflake which looked very confused to him.
"Your Christmas present." Skittery smiled shyly. Snowflake unwrapped it and opened the little box. Her eyes widened.
"That's ….That is …"
"A few days ago you looked at this necklace like it was the most beautiful thing you've ever seen. I hope you like it?" Again the tears were running down Snowflake's cheek when Skittery hugged her.
"You wouldn't believe me how much!!!" Skittery put his arms around her waist an looked happy at Snow. Without saying another word he pulled her towards him and kissed her gently.

Boots and Fighter were on their way home. They were near the lodging house for girls when they heard footsteps in the alley next to them. Suddenly there was a surrounded by a group of very angry guys.
"What do you want?!" Boots asked standing protective in front of Fighter.
"You know. Nobody hits Ash and get out of this so easy."
"What are you talking about?" Fighter asked confused and looked from one to another. She had never seen them before.
"Nothing of your business, dollface!" The guys were coming closer and closer and began to beat Boots up.
"Boots! Leave him alone!" Fighter tried her best to fight against this guys.
"Fighter go, please safe yerselv!" Now the guys had divided. As Boots had his opponents finally beaten up. He looked after Fighter. The other guys ran away and he saw her sitting on the ground shivering and crying. Boots kneed beside her and put an arm around her shoulder.
"It's over. It's okay Fighter! Everything's gonna be alright!" Fighter shook her head.
"It'll never stop. Since my parents died I had learnt to fight but there always guys which are better, stronger then me. I haven't got the chance to get out of this!" She cried at his shoulder.
"I'll always be there and protect you! I'll swear!" He kissed her forehead and hugged her again.
"Really?" Boots nodded.
"Why? I mean, in Brooklyn Spot and the guys teached me how to fight for myself. Why do you want to take care for me? Nobody ever did that!"
"Because I love you!" Fighter looked at him with big eyes.
"What?" She whispered.
"Because I love you, Rachel Annabelle Stanley!"
"Where does you know my name from?"
"That's my secret!" He whispered and leaned in to kiss her.
"I love you!"
