" So what did ya wanna talk to me about Jacky-boy?"
Spot and Jack were in the girl's bunkroom so they could talk privately.
" This new goil, Sparks."
" Whadda bout her?"
" Well what do ya think of her?"
" What do you mean what do I think of her?"
" Well, do ya like her?"
" Hey your not thinking of dumping Knots for her are you? Because Knots is like my sistah and I'd have to soak ya-"
Jack had a shocked look on his face.
" Spot! That's the stupidest thing Ise evah hoid. Ya know that I love Knots with every piece of me."
" Ok then how come youse so talkative about this Sparks goil."
" Because well, Knots talked to her and well, she's taken a liken to ya Spot."
A devilish smirk came across Spot's face.
He grabbed his gold tipped cane and started to polish it with his shirt.
" Well, what goil doesn't like the infamous Spot Conlon? I mean c'mon Jack, a goil liking me isn't a headline. It happens every day."
" Yea but it is when you like her back, I mean really like her back."
" Who said Ise like the broad? I don't even know her."
Spot was fuming.
" Awe c'mon Spot, Ise aint blind."
" No ya aint. Which is why I'm wondering who gave ya the idear that Ise like her."
" Spot it's noticeable. So do ya like her? " Jack said calmly.
" I dunno. Give it a rest will ya? I don't wanna talk about this right now."
" Alright Spot."
" Lets get back to the poker game."
" Whateva ya say."
The two boys walked out of the girls room, and went back to the bunkroom where all the other boys ( and three girls) were.
When Spot went back in he took an empty Spot on the floor next to Sparks. She was talking with Milkshake, Knots, and Bookworm about something while playing a card game. Spot couldn't stop staring at her.
Did he like her? He had only met her half an hour ago. Spot decided the only way he was going to figure out if he liked her was to get to know her a little bit more.
" Hey Sparks." Spot said quietly.
Sparks didn't hear him.
" Hey uh Sparks" Spot said a little louder, but still not loud enough for her to hear him.
" Sparks!!" He shouted.
" What Conlon?" Sparks said whipping her head around.
The whole lodging house was looking at him.
" Uhâ.can ya hand me a card? I cant reach the pile."
" Ya reached it a minute ago." Sparks said confused.
" Just hand me a card will ya?"
" Here ya go Conlon."
Spot put the useless card down on the floor.
He really wanted to go for a walk with Sparks, so he tried again to get her attention, but this time without the whole Lodging House noticing.
" PsstâSparks." He said tapping her lightly on the shoulder.
Her red hair draped over her shoulders as she turned around.
" Need another card Conlon?" she asked smirking.
" No I don't need another card." Spot said a little angrily.
" Well then what is it?"
" I uhâ just wanted to know if you would go for a walk with me."
Sparks smiled.
" Alright Conlon. I'll go for a walk with you."
Spot stood up and then helped Sparks up from the floor. They walked down the stairs of the lodging house and out into the cool-aired night.
