The cold November wind pushed across my cheeks as I walked to the market for Kloppman. Walking pass the harbor I was almost trampled by a mass of people leaving a ship. Immigrants. As I listened, I noticed almost none of them spoke English. I remembered back, clutching my Immigration papers, sobbing because my younger brother Nicholas was left behind at Ellis Island. His awful fever did it, if only he could have gotten better earlier.
I rapidly tore the thoughts from my head and focused on getting to the market. I looked at the list Kloppman had hastily scribbled out for me. I could hardly read it, but it was good enough.
It read...
Potatoes
Lettuce
Bread
It wasn't that hard to memorize but ever since the night before my mind had been in other places. The dream that I had would scare me for life, not to mention haunt me until I could take it no more.

POV: Race
I was dazed and confused, I didn't know why I was thinking of her so much. 'maybe I'm just worried about her' I thought to myself. However, I knew it had to be a lie.
I couldn't stop picturing her in my mind since the night before, I held her protectively in my arms until she fell asleep, but I only did it because I didn't want her to feel alone after that horrible dream she had.
Now I know I did it because I was falling in love with her. Now I know from the moment I got to know her I loved her, not just because of that night. The whole time we were just friends I thought it was crazy for one of the boys to think we should be together. Infect many of the boys thought I was crazy for not even giving it a try.
"EXCUSE ME! I said I would like a paper PLEASE!" an old man yelled at me, still in a day I handed him a paper and walked away with out receiving my money. "Race! wait!" I turned around, there she was, just a beautiful as before.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
P.O.V: Meryn
"RACE! Wait!" I yelled as I ran towards him. he turned around and gave me that grin of his, the one that made me smile no matter what the situation was.
"Hey! what are ay doin' heah? I thought you were at tha market??"
"well I was but I only needed a few things, and I saw you and decided to come and say hello."
His eyes sparkled with joy and amusement, they were so beautiful it was hard to look away. I was brought out of my trance when he asked...
"Hey, why doncha cum and help me sell tha rest of me papes and den we'se kin go ta Tibby's."
I looked at him and stared laughing, he was not amused.
"what?" he asked almost hurt. His eyes gave me a pleading look.
"Race, my dear, you don't have any more papers to sell!!" I laughed even harder.
He blushed and shoved his hands in his pockets. "Well I'se guess we could go and drop off tha food fer Kloppman and den we could go on a walkin' tha park?" He kept his eyes on the couple skating on the pond
"I would love to Race!" I gave him the biggest smile I could manage. he smiled and sighed.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
P.O.V. Race
I sighed, I couldn't wait to spend the rest of my day with her. All I wanted to do was e with her but I was doubtful that she felt the same. As we walked back to the Lodging house, she hummed a beautiful song, asked her ....
"Wow Meryn that was great! were did u learn it?"
"My mother used to sing it to me and my brother so we could ft to sleep..."she trailed off
She had told me about her brother before but this was the first I had heard of him in awhile.
We dropped off the food for Kloppman and headed for Central Park. On the way there, we stopped for a small bite to eat from a hot dog and sauerkraut stand.
"Let's sit here and eat" I suggested and pointed to a nearby bench,
We sat sitting for a while when she noticed we were both done.
"Well, we're both done so what would you like to do now?" She looked at me.
I sat there for a few minutes and thought as a plan popped into my head. I quickly stood up and turned my back to her. Then I dashed away yelling
"RACE YA TA TIBBY'S!!"
I looked back and she was almost on my heels laughing, I ran into an alley and stopped. She ran in, out of breath and leaned on me for support. I was in heaven. We Finally got caught in each other's gaze, when i decided my next move.....
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Meryn:
He leaned in and kissed me softly on the lips, I was surprised but couldn't move at all. He pulled away and stared lovingly into my eyes. I knew I would never experience a feeling like that with anyone else.
(so..so how was it!!! tell me R/R!!!!!_
