"Lindsey?" Spot breathed. How could he have been so stupid? She had been there right on front of his face. "Spot, This is....not right...." Soda said sadly. Spot stood there rocking back and forth on his feet. "Why didn't you come back?" She asked. It was a cold day and fog was blowing around them. It was really cloudy. This is not the way she wanted to figure out that this was Alex.
"I'se really wanted to. I'se didn't mean to..." He was saying. "I waited 7 years for you. You just never made the effort and kept your promise!" Soda grasped her head and held it. "I can't take this! Spot I really need to be alone right now...I can't even look at you. I can't believe you've been Alex this whole time!" She shouted and ran off into the fog sobbing and holding her face in her hands.
She ran all the way to Central Park and she never took a glance back. Now she didn't want Alex to be with her. It seemed he didn't care since he broke his promise to her and left her in the 7th circle of Hell for the last 7 years. He had no idea how much she had needed him and he never came back to help.
****************************
Spot walked home slowly and sadly. He had her right there in front of his face and he never knew it. Now that he looked at her. She looked exactly like she used to only a lot hotter to him. What was he saying? She wasn't anything like she used to be. Now she was pissed.
He really had wanted to go back. They relocated that Orphanage and he couldn't find her. He was always searching Manhattan, but once he became a member of Brooklyn he gave up. He didn't even want to think about her anymore. All of this made him turn tough. He forgot all about her. He really shouldn't have done it and he knew it too.
One thing people didn't know was Spot always sang on his own. Whenever he was alone he would sing. He chose to sing right now because he didn't know how else to let it out. He knew he would NEVER cry it out.
I woke up it was 7
I waited till 11
Just to figure out that no one would call
I think i got a lot of friends but I don't hear from them
What's another night all alone?
When your spending everyday on your own
And here it goes
[Chorus:]
I'm just a kid and life is a nightmare
I'm just a kid, I know that its not fair
Nobody cares, cause I'm alone and the world is
Having more fun than me
Tonight...
And maybe when the night is dead, I'll crawl into my bed
Staring at these 4 walls again
I'll try to think about the last time, I had a good time
Everyone's got somewhere to go
And they're gonna leave me here on my own and here it goes
I'm just a kid and life is a nightmare
I'm just a kid, I know that its not fair
Nobody cares, cause I'm alone and the world is
Having more fun than me
What the hell is wrong with me?
Don't fit in with anybody
How did this happen to me?
Wide awake I'm bored and I can't fall asleep
And every night is the worst night ever
I'm just a kid and life is a nightmare
I'm just a kid, I know that its not fair
Nobody cares, cause I'm alone and the world is
Nobody wants to be alone in the world.
I'm just a kid and life is a nightmare
I'm just a kid, I know that its not fair
Nobody cares, cause I'm alone and the world is
Nobody wants to be alone in the world
Nobody cares, cause I'm alone and the world is
Having more fun than me tonight
I'm all alone tonight
Nobody cares tonight
Cause I'm just a kid tonight

Soda found Mush selling in Central Park so she ran up to him and tapped him on the shoulder. "Hi." She said when he turned around. "Whatsa matta?" Mush asked her sitting down on the bench with her. "Mush, Rememba dat one boy I'se was telling ya about? The one boy from da orphanage?" She asked him. "Yeah, I rememba." Mush told her.
"Well, Dat was Spot." She said and she started to Sob into Mush's chest. He held her for a while and stroaked her hair. "It's ok." Mush said trying to calm her. Her long black hair was in her face so he pushed it out of her eyes. The cold air was making her pale skin looking whiter than milk. "You should go back to da Lodging House, I'se don't want ya to get sick." He said to her.
"Look, I'se kinda wanna take a walk, so give me like 20 minutes and I'll be back ok?" She said giving him a reassuring kiss. "Well, You'se betta be careful." He told her. "Don't worry." She said walking out toward the exit of Central Park. Mush sold his last paper to a little girl who was holding a balloon. "Thank you!" She said and gave him a kiss on the cheek and strode off with her mom.
The mother stopped and looked back at him with sympathy. She opened her wallet and handed him a ten dollar bill. "Ma'am, it's alright, I'se don't need it." He said. "I insist." She said giving him a kind smile. "Thanks!" He said giving her a gracious bow. She smiled and walked off with her daughter.
****************************
Soda was walking throughout the park when she started to sing to get her mind off everything and to stop from crying so badly. She then thought about Spot, "I love Spot Conlon......No, I Loved Alex Conlon.....Loved." She said sadly and started to sing,
And now I'm all alone again
Nowhere to turn, no one to go to
Without a home, without a friend
Without a face to say hello to
And now the night is near, and I can make
Believe he's here.
Sometimes I walk alone at night when everybody else is sleeping.
I think of him and then I'm happy with the company I'm keeping
The city goes to bed
And I can live inside my head.
On my own
Pretending he's beside me.
All alone I walk with him till morning
Without him
I feel his arms around me
And when I lose my way I close my eyes
And he has found me.
In the rain the pavement shines like silver
All the lights are misty in the river
In the darkness the trees are full of starlight
And all I see is him and me for ever and forever.
And I know it's only in my mind
That I'm talking to myself and not to him
And although I know that he is blind
Still I say there's a way for us.
I love him
But when the night is over
He is gone, the river's just a river
Without him the world around me changes
The trees are bare and everywhere the streets are full of stangers.
I love him
But everyday I'm learning
All my life I've only been pretending
Without me his world will go on turning
A world that's full of happiness that I have
Never known.
I love him, I love him.
I love him, but only on my own.
-On My Own Les Mierables.
Soda was nearing the end of Central Park when she heard footsteps following her. She looked back and saw that no one was there. So she shrugged and walked off. So she kept walking but then she heard more walking. Again, no one was there. She started to run and soon she felt herself grabbed from behind.
It was two boys about her age. One of the boys was holding his hand on her mouth and holding her back so that her head was leaning against his chest. She wasn't faced toward him. The other boy was trying her wrists together. She couldn't move at all. "Hey, Soda, The leada of Harlem would like to speak with ya!" He said in a laughter type of voice.
He was tying the rope so tight that it was cutting into her wrists. So blood started to pour out from under them. So Blood was dripping on the ground as they carried her off to Harlem. Blood was trailed all the way. The blood was spilling down her arms like madness. She wished that they would just ease up a little or she wished for a miracle. For Spot.....Alex to come save her.
**********************************
"Hey, Jack have you seen Soda? She said she was going to be back in 20 minutes and she's been gone for nearly 4 hours!" Mush exclaimed worried. "Relax Mush, she's just fine I'm shoa of it." He said. "Jack, I'm worried and I'm going to look for her. Soon they heard screaming that sound like Soda and that made Mush make up his mind.
"Jack, gather up da boys and meet me and Blink at Central Park!" He yelled taking off with Blink. Once they got there Jack followed up with, Race, Skittery, Crutchy, Bumlets, Boots, Dutchy, Specs and Itey. "Look!" Blink shouted looking at the ground. They ran over and found a trail of blood. Then Mush noticed something on the ground. It was a necklace that said, Lindsey. It had some blood on it too.
"We got to follow this trail. I know this is Soda's necklace....wait, Spot will know about this necklace. We got to find Spot!" Mush yelled.
***************************************
They found Spot only down the street looking more sad then ever. "Spot, is this Soda's?" Mush asked holding out the necklace. "Yeah, How'd you get it?" He asked. "Never mind that, Soda's got to be in trouble! She told me that she was going to go for a walk and would be back in 20 minutes and it's been 4 hours. Then we went to search Central Park when we heard someone screaming. Then we found a trail of blood with this necklace right next to it." Mush said showing some of the blood on the necklace.
"We got to find her, she's hurt!" Spot yelled running with them to follow the trail.
"I'se really wanted to. I'se didn't mean to..." He was saying. "I waited 7 years for you. You just never made the effort and kept your promise!" Soda grasped her head and held it. "I can't take this! Spot I really need to be alone right now...I can't even look at you. I can't believe you've been Alex this whole time!" She shouted and ran off into the fog sobbing and holding her face in her hands.
