Chapter twenty-six
Spot fell back on the floor running his hand through his hair. He sighed heavily before he got up again. He glared at Knife and went in his room followed by Blue.
"Don't tell me I helped you to do this to her! Don't tell me the others are right! So you want to go on and take the next girl for tonight? Shall I go and get Cassy or Pat or Susan or one of your other bitches?!" Blue screamed at Spot.
"Listen Blue believe me or not, I really love her! I wished I could turn back time and made it never happen if it would be any help, but it happened. Yeah, I slept with her. And it was the best time I ever had! Because she is the first girl I really care for! That I really love!!! You don't know how much it hurt me to se her so sad and hurt like out there. I would do anything that she would know how much I care. I thought I finally showed her and then this bastards have to ruin everything!" Blue looked at Spot and his look softened. He knew Spot. Even if not this long, therefore very well. And he saw that Spot was as true as never before in his life.
Suddenly his eyes fell on a bunch of clothes laying on the floor. He went over and took them to take a closer look.
"Spot, aren't these Storm's?"
"Yeah, why?" Spot couldn't think clearly.
"Because, here are her jacket and even the long-sleeve-shirt, which means she's out there just in her thin shirt! She will get ill!" Spot was on his feet in less then a second.
"Lets find her."
He went out in the bunkroom where everyone still stood around.
"ALL OF YOU OUT OF HERE, I WON'T SEE ANYONE TILL WE FIND HER!!!"
Spot stormed out followed by the others-in a slower move.

It was nine at the evening when all came home to the lodging house.
"Damn it, where else can she be." Blue sat down on his bunk. Ocean came and took a seat next to him. Blue put his arm around her shoulder and she laid her head on his shoulder.
"Maybe Spot found her."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Spot didn't know what he should do. He had searched all over Brooklyn. There wasn't a place he hadn't been. And it was beginning to rain. Damn it where could she be?! Then it hit him. There was one place he hadn't look. He ran as fast as he could and soon reached the docks. There she was. Sitting on the ground. Exactly the place where he had took her one night. She seemed like a statue not like a human. She just sat there near the river letting the rain soaking here.
"Storm." He walked over to her.
"I thought I told you to never come near me again!" She said without looking at him.
"Storm please, listen to me!" he touched her shoulder and tried to turn her to him.
"DON'T TOUCH ME!!!!" She yanked her arm away from him still looking at the river.
"Storm! Damn it! Why won't you let me explain you?! It isn't what you're thinking! Come on. I've tried so much to prove my love. Do you really think I would have done that if I just wanted ONE damn night with you?! Even If it was the best night I had in my damn life I'll forget it, no, I won't ever talk about it or think about it. Because I can't forget it. I can't turn back time, Storm! All I can do, I did. I proved my Love, I told you I showed you. There isn't more I can do!" He looked at her waiting for an answer.
"Storm, say something. Yell at me, Anything just don't sit there and pretend you wouldn't see and hear me!" She still didn't response.
"You have to get out of this rain. You'll get ill. Please, come back with me?" he pleaded his voice soft now.
"Storm." He tried it again to touch her. But she yanked him of again. But this time she did it too strong.
She couldn't react fast enough and also Spot just could watch what happened next.
Storm fell into the icy cold river. And worse: She didn't came back!
"STORM!!!" Spot yelled and prayed that she was still alive. He didn't think long about it. He pulled of his cap and Jacket and jumped in the river. He searched her under water and suddenly he felt something against his hand. It was Storm! He pulled her up and out of the water.
"Storm, come on. Please!" He slapped her cheeks lightly, but she still didn't move.
"Damn it!" Then he remembered what one of Jack's boys had done the last summer as Daisy had almost drown.
He laid Storm's head in her neck and opened her mouth slightly. He breathed his breath into her mouth. Between the breaths he pressed his hands on her chest. After he did this the third time Storm began to cough and a little bit of the east river left her body. Spot sat behind her and hold her. She looked up at him once before she became unconscious. Spot wrapped his Jacket around her and crapped his cap. Even if his jacket was soaked too. It wasn't so soaked like Storm or himself. He picked Storm up and carried her back to the Lodging house.
