I ran. I just ran as fast as I could to get away from him. Why didn't I
realize it before?
Why didn't I realize that the boy I feared and hated as a child was the guy I had bumped
into? The guy to whom I punched several times in the face and body.
Running was all that was on my mind. I didn't care if someone was behind me trying to
stop me and get me to talk. I just needed to get away from everyone and everything. I
turned down an alley and leaned up against a wall. I was thankful that I was wearing my
trousers rather than a skirt. I slipped down to the ground and locked my arms around my
legs I was shaking so much.
~*~*Dodger's POV~*~*
Fast and I just watched as Whisper ran. She looked so petrified when she realized who
was in front of her. Jack had leisurely followed her after smirking and saying good-bye. I
suddenly felt my anger from the day rush up into my fists. I clenched them tight and felt
few drops of liquid on my palms. I look down and open them. It wasn't sweat or water; it
was blood from where my nails had entered my skin. I didn't care though. All I felt was
that I wanted to punch Jack Kelly so hard that he would fall. Fast saw the look in my eye.
"No Dodge. Don't let Jack get to you. We've got to find Whisper and take her to see Kid
before Jack finds her. The look he had in his eyes was that of doing something wrong and
with the state she's in right now, she's gonna need someone."
I nod and we head off running in the direction that Whisper did. I prayed as we ran that
we would get to her before Jack did.
~*~*Kid's POV~*~*
With Jack gone and everyone else but Mush and Specs going to Tibby's was pretty much
the last thing to do. Just remembering what fire blazed in Whisper's eyes made me feel
for her more than any other girl I've ever met. She had the innocence in her that few had
these days. I continued to stare out the window, hoping to see the girls walk by; sipping
my water.
"Kid.Kid.BLINKY!"
That got my attention. Mush rarely calls me Blinky unless he's teasing me and wanted to
get my attention.
"What do you want Mush?"
"You really feel for that girl don't you?"
I turned my attention away from him.
"I knew it. I could tell when she came into the room and started yelling at Jack. You
stared at her in awe and had a weird look in your eyes."
"Okay, so I like her. But what am I going to do about that? You heard what Jack said that
HE thought she LIKED him. You know that majority of the time what Jack says normally
comes true. Sure she didn't look like she liked him but he'll probably try get her to be his
girl."
"Well you're just going to have to get her attention first. Do something that will get her to
appreciate you."
"Well she did mention how she missed her friends Andrew and Michael."
"How about you invite them here and surprise her. I'm sure she will be happy and
grateful."
That was it. All I had to do was get hold of her friends and see if they would come to
New York. Suddenly Dodger and Fastdancer run into Tibby's out of breath.
"Guys, where is Whisper?"
Dodger was the first to gain her breath back.
"She realized where she'd seen Jacky-boy from before. She looked so petrified as if he
was gonna hoit 'er or somethin'! She ran off and den Jack followed 'er. We ain't sure
where she is but we might wanna find 'er before 'e does."
I nodded and leaving the check with Mush, Specs, Racetrack, the girls and I ran out of the
shop to find Whisper.
'Please don't let anything happen to her.'
I prayed as we ran.
~*~*Jack's POV~*~*
Well I must admit that Katelin has grown into a beaut since I last saw her. She was so
scrawny before. The last time I had seen that much fire in a girl was from Boxer. She got
so mad at me one time during a date that her eyes blazed up and her cheeks flushed up
and sure enough we ended up making out till dawn. I also guess that my intimidation still
works with Katelin. With it working, I'll be able to have her be my girl in no time flat.
"Give me 2 days and she'll be mine."
A/N: Okay I know, this chapter is kinda short. Exams are stressing me out plus I've been
working on Search for a Place. Please read. I'll update this soon too. You review, I'll
review. I promise.
