We walked into the Lodging House and I noticed most of the guys were there already. Sketch was sitting with some newsies I've seen on the docks but like usual I didn't know them. I followed Spot over to where Sketch was sitting.

"Youse two left in a hurry. Anything wrong?"

"Nope." I said then looked at the nameless faces around me.

"Befora I ferget, Angel dis is Club, Ace, Shadow, Marble, Boa, and Phoenix." Sketch introduced. "So Spot who's goin te Manhattan wit ye?"

"I ain't surre yet." Spot said distant.

"Make up yer mind! Yer gonna have te leave soon ye know!"

"Alright let's see. Ace…Shadow…and you Sketch." Spot said with a devilish grin.

"Oh great. I guess if I lose I'll have te buy yer papes fer a week again,. right?" Sketch sighed.

"Yup!" Spot said obviously pleased with himself.

"Ye know I'm taggin along!" I said heading for my room.

"It's a given, Yer brodda requested dat ye came along." Spot said as I opened the door. "He wanned his doggy te visit."

"Let me know when yer ready te leave." I smiled back.

I walked over to the window. I saw R.T. still sitting on the pier. Instead of it being just him, Demon as sitting with him. It seemed as if they were talking for a while. They both stood up to leave and Demon noticed me starring at them. I backed away from the window and sat on my bed.

"Dis is just great!" I said to myself. "You've made a mess if things wid Trevor and R.T. How stupid can I be?" Shortly after someone knocked on the door. "Come in." I said barely loud enough to hear.

"I wanna talk te ye." it was R.T.

"I don't think it's such a good idea. I'm leavin soon wid Spot." I said nervously looking up.

"Bout eilia. I'm sorry I made ye cry. I just reacted wid out thinking. I knew ye already got someone. I didn't like feelin like dis." I could tell R.T. was trying to be sincere. "I ain't neva felt like dis before. I love ye Angel."

Before I could say anything back Spot opened the door. "C'mon we're ready te leave." Before leaving, Spot glared at R.T.

"Sorry. I gotta go. Mebe we can talk when I get back er mebe in de morning." R.T. followed as I left the room.

Spot, Ace, Shadow, and Sketch were waiting by Spot's room. When they saw me exit my room they walked over. Spot seemed both surprised and upset R.T. came to see me.

"Whudd he want?" Spot asked when R.T. was on the other side of the room.

"I guess te talk bout eilia. He apologized, but not bout kissin me."

"Spot's goil was kissed by anudda guy?" Shadow laughed turning to Ace and Sketch.

"Looks like he didn't soak im eida." Ace whispered loud enough for Spot and me to hear.

"Dats it! If ye gots a problem wid me not soakin im in front of me goil den say it, odda wise shove it!" Spot yelled grabbing my arm and leading the way towards the door.

"C'mon Spot. Dey's just playin wid ye. I'm surre you'll get im when ye gots de chance." Sketch assured him trying to calm him down.

We walked towards Manhattan in utter silence. I was afraid to say anything to Spot. I had seen him this mad once with Trevor and Frit. We reached the Lodging House in Manhattan right when it started getting dark.

"Heya Spot," Jack chuckled. "Whudds got ye woiked up dis time?"

"Don't ye start wid it!" Spot growled sitting next to me on a bunk. "I ain't in de mood fer yer insults!"

"Whoa somethins really got im if he's sayin he ain't in de mood fer me insults. I haven't hoid dat one in a while."

"Ace an Shadow kinda had something te do wid it." I said seeing Ace and Shadow laughing about something with Scott. "I think I'll be right back." I said leaving to see what they were talking about, but I could only guess. "Whudds so funny?" I asked as soon as I heard Spot's name mentioned.

"So I hoid ye was kissed by someone named R.T." Scott laughed.

"It ain't funny! How can ye laugh at it? An de two of ye really should apologize te Spot fer messin wid im!" I yelled then turned to go to my room.

Their laughing stopped and they were silent. I could hear Shadow and Ace walking over to Spot. I slammed my door to make it seem like I was mad I could hear the apologizing to Spot from my room. Hopefully Spot wouldn't be in a bad mood after that.

Shadow knocked on the door "Hey uhh can we talk?" he asked knocking.

"Surre come in." I responded.

Shadow and Ace walked in. "We kinda wanned te apologize. Guess we kinda went too far bout ye gettin kissed an all." Ace said.

"Yea so Spot said we should come an apologize te ye too cuz it made ye mad. An dat ye got mad when we told Scott." Shadow added.

"Did he tell ye te apologize er else he'd skin ye?" I asked partly surprised.

"No he said we should apologize if we wanned te keep sellin in Brooklyn. He was mora upset dat we made ye mad den when we was jokin round."

"Alright if I accept yer apologizes will ye answa a question of mine?"

"Yea. It'd be easia den sellin in Harlem."

"Alright will ye tell me if ye know anythin bout R.T.?"

"Can't say dat I know anythin. I ain't neva talked te de guy. Sorry I ain't any help te ye."

"It's alright. I guess almost no one does. At least no one I've talked te."

"Wait! I know someone dat can help ye. I think ye already know im. His names Phoenix. He's de only one I've seen talking te R.T."

"Whudd bout Demon? I saw im talkin te R.T. eilia."

"He don talk te im bout nuttin important. R.T. don't really talk te Demon anyway."

"I'm glad ye told me. I was gonna ask Demon bout im. Thanks fer de info."

"Yea we it's betta den Spot kickin us outta Brooklyn." Ace smiled.

"I guess I'll go an see Spot." I left the room and saw Spot sitting with Jack. Spot was smiling so he was in a better mood. "So whudd ye threaten em for a?" I asked taking Spot's hat and putting it on.

"It ain't nona yer bizness. Mebe I just felt like it." Spot smiled taking his hat back and placing it on his head.
