Chapter twenty-four

Spot went outside with Knife and Ripper. They took a walk every now and then to make sure Tricks or some other bastards wouldn't came to Brooklyn.

"ey, look at this girl over there!" Knife said pointing at a blonde girl on the other side of the street.

"A real looker ain't she Spot?" Ripper grinned.

"If you think so." Spot shrugged.

"You didn't even look at her. Spot, I really wonder. Since a few weeks you don't even notice a pretty girl. One could sit on your lap and you wouldn't see."

"Ah, he would see her if she was a red hair, short tempered, brown eyed german girl!" Ripper smiled.

"Ah shut up!" Spot said getting angry.

"I bet as soon as he had her once he's back to normal!" Knife said. Spot turned and glared at Knife VERY angry.

"If you don't shut up, I'll take care that you'll never ever speak again! Got this?" Knife nodded slowly and swallowed.

Okay I couldn't wait any longer. So now it's the next Saturday (Thunderstorm's birthday). Oh, I wished I could turn the time in the real life!!! ;)

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Blue felt someone shaking his shoulder and woke up slowly.

"Spot, what's the matter?"

"You have to do me a favor."

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"Good morning! HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!!" Storm groaned but slowly opened her eyes.

"So how does it feel to be a year older?!" Ocean grinned.

"Just as tired as with fourteen!" The other three girls laughed.

"So what are we gonna do today?"

"What do you mean?"

"Well, we thought we would make a `lady's day' Just us three." Sharie said.

"Why not?"

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"You have to bring Storm at Medda's to night."
"But why?" Blue yawned, he wasn't fully awaken by now.

"Just do it!" Spot turned and walked away. Blue laid down again and turned to take another hour of sleep.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The girls came back at eight and as soon as they entered the bunkroom Blue came up to Storm and hugged her.

"Happy birthday! And now come on."

"What?"

"Come on. I have to bring you somewhere." Blue pulled Storm along with him, leaving the girls very confused in the bunkroom.

"Blue, where are we going to?"

"It is a surprise. I just have to take you there."

"Where did I hear that before?" Storm murmured. "I guess that hasn't something to do with Spot Conlon?"

"I don't mean what you're talking about." Blue looked away.

"You are the worst liar I have ever seen!" Storm shook her head.

"So come on, what has he planned this time?"

"I don't know. SO just come on. We have to take this way." Blue lead her the whole way till they reached a house.

"So, here is it."
"Where are we?"

"This is Irving hall. And you are Storm?" A red hair woman stood in front of them. Storm nodded slightly.

"I'm Medda. Come with me." Blue said bye and walked back to Brooklyn. Storm followed Medda into a very big room, or better said a hall. The only light there were candles. Storm looked confused at Medda. She lead Storm over to a table and told her to sit down. Medda went away. Then Suddenly out of nowhere Spot came out a red rose in his hand. He kneed down in front of Storm and gave her the rose.

"Happy Birthday!" He whispered as he did so. Storm blushed and smiled shyly.

"How do you always do this?" She asked him looking around.

"That's my secret." Out of nowhere a piano began to play. Medda came back and put something on the table. Spot sat down on the opposite of Storm and took the lid from the plates on the tables.

"Hope you like it." Storm didn't know what happened to her. The whole atmosphere seemed to run into her body. She felt calm and wasn't as moody as she was the last few days. Spot didn't even took his eyes off of her for one single second. What let chills run through Storm's body. She knew that this night she couldn't keep him on distance. She didn't even want to anymore. She didn't know what it had been, but she somehow knew now, that she wouldn't be one of his one-week-girls.
