"Spot!" Soda was screaming running toward the docks. Still he didn't appear to the surface. She threw her hat and dived into the water. She swam to the icy bottom in search for Spot. She felt around the bottom but she finally decided to open her eyes even though it hurt to keep them open. Spot was WAY more important then her eyes.

She kept frantically looking around for a sign of Spot. He was no where to be found. She swam back up for a breath of air but immediatly sunk back down. She felt her heart beating a mile a minute. She kept swimming desperate to find Spot. That was when she saw a body floating. It was Spot. She swam over to him and grabbed him from under the arms and dragged him up to the surface.

She breathed in some sweet air when she broke to the surface but she saved it and dragged Spot up to the docks. Mush grabbed Spot from her and layed him down on the docks. Then he helped her out of the water. "Is he alive?" Soda asked her voice shaking. "It's hard to say." Mush said looking for any sign of movement. "Is he breathing?" She asked.

It took Mush a minute. "No." Soda's eyes grew wide and she pushed Mush to the side and started to perform CPR on Spot. She kept pushing on his stomach to try and get water out. She tried a few times but there was just no luck. She kept desperatly trying. There was just no luck. "He's dead." Soda said in defeat. "HE'S DEAD!" Soda screamed in agony.

Mush sat there in shock while Soda screamed and cried. Mush even tried a few times, to get water out but he had no luck just like Soda. Soda cried hysterically calling out Spot's name only she wasn't calling Spot by his name she was calling him by the name she knew him as. "Alex.....why did you have to go? Don't leave me." She cried holding on to his hand and crying into his chest.

She pulled all of the wet hair out of his eyes. His handsome face was pale and sorrow. He no longer looked like the Alex Conlon, her best friend, her leader, the love of her life....He was really cold and had no life to him. She looked down at his face and felt just a stab of sadness hit again. "Alex...I love you." She whispered and she kissed him on the lips for a while. (Don't ask me why she's kissing a corpse)

Mush didn't even take notice he was just looking into the water. Soda kept on kissing him with the kiss she wanted to give him for 7 years. She finally broke away and muttered. "Why didn't I tell you that I loved you from the start? You were the one I loved Alex. You knew it too. You knew there was no one else." She began to cry into his chest again when out of no where came a groan.

"Mush, I know..." She said shakily but Mush turned to her with the saddest face she'd ever seen on him. But if Mush didn't groan....who did? She let her gaze fall back on Spot who opened his eyes. "SPOT!" Soda screamed and hugged him tightly. Spot looked around blinking away spots in front of his eyes. "Lindsey, where are we?" He asked.

"You're alive! I can't believe it! You're alive!" Soda just couldn't get enough of the words, You, are, and alive. "Yeah, you would be right." Spot said with a smirk. "Why did you do it?" Soda asked with a frown on her face yet again. "You wouldn't understand." He said peering out in to the water. He saw a really beautiful sunset.

"Try me." She said firmly. "I had to....What else could I'se have done? I was just so depressed all da time and there was just no way..." Spot stated but Soda cut him off. "You had me. You had the Newsies. Most importantly, you could have said something to me. Whenever I asked what was wrong you just turned the other was and refused to say. You always told me it was ok. Well it's not ok is it Spot?" Soda demanded.

"I just can't take it!" Spot yelled. He crunched into a ball and his his face into his knees and was crying. Soda sat there not knowing what else to say. She already yelled at him, what else could she do wrong. What are you supposed to say to your best friend after a suicidal attempt. Soda grabbed his hand and she gently pulled his head up so he was looking at her.

"I was so scared. Scared that you were.....dead. I couldn't handle it. If you died I would have died. In here...." She added gesturing to her heart. She then started to hug him and stroke his hair. He hugged her back and just couldn't let go. "Don't do this to me again." She pleaded in a whisper as she hugged him tighter. Mush watched as they held eachother close.

When they broke apart they kind of slid away from each other. Soda took a glance at Mush and started to twist her wet hair in her finger. He came over and grabbed both of their hands. Soda's right and Spot's left and he gently placed them on top of each other. Soda looked at him with joy. Mush smiled and gave her a small hug. Which she gladly returned.

She got up with Spot and they wouldn't let go of eachothers hands. Which brought and even bigger smile on to Mush's face. He then gave them one quick glance and walked off to Manhatten and left Spot and Soda there holding hands watching the sunset.

~~~See! I didn't kill Spot! Didn't have the heart. But I bet I had ya scared there for a minute! :) Also, don't even think this is the end of the story it's not even close to being over, I just have to leave it here for tonight, it's almost two in the morning and it's officially Easter!
