Chapter 14 (Spot's Point of View)
Do you
understand
Do you feel the same
Am I only dreaming
Is this burning an eternal flame.
- "Eternal Flame" by The Bangles
I didn't like having to explain to Nightingale what happened, but I knew I had to. I also knew that I wanted Memory to be my girl. I definitely didn't want to be with Nightingale. I felt bad about using her, but I wasn't going to drag it out. After breaking it off to a sobbing Nightingale, I went to find Memory.
"What do you want Spot?" Jack asked as I entered the lodging house.
"I need to talk to Memory."
"I don't think she wants to talk to you."
"Did she tell you what happened?" I asked. Jack nodded. "I broke up with Nightingale."
"You did?"
"Yeah, I realized that I liked Memory more. I have to tell her."
"I don't think she'll let you."
"Hey Jack?"
"Yeah?"
"Secret weapon?" Jack smiled and nodded. He then grabbed his hat, which was sitting on the desk, next to him, and we walked out the door.
