Chapter 17

-Three Days later-

(Race's POV)

Its been a few days since we got put in the hospital, and a few days since I admitted ta likin Klutz in front of Crutchie. 'I still can't belive dat I like Klutz' Its been a few years since I let myself get close ta a goil.

Avoding talkin' to Crutchie bout what I said was easy, my broken rids mada a good excuse ta not to talkin to much. He seemed ta be mad at me for what I said anyways, so he didnt try ta get me to talk eithera. But he left yesterday afternoon. Its been really calm 'ere since he went back ta da lodgin' house.

The only good thing bout today is I get ta go back home, or at least back ta da lodgin house. "Hey Race. Ready ta get back to the lodgin' house.?" Jack walked in ta my room, trying to sound cheery as can be. But he looked like crap and I couldn't hold my tongue. "Dam Cowboy, Ya look terrible. Haven't ya got any sleep lately?"

He just looked at me a little affended and a little annyoied. I was about to ask him about Klutz when a nurse walked in and told me that she was here to make sure I was ready ta leave today. After getting me off the bed and helpin' me take a few steps, she said, "Well it seems you are all ready to go then. But don't forget to take it easy for a while." I nodded and me and Jack were out the door of my room. but i paused there.

"Um Cowboy?" He stopped dead in his tracks. "Can we go see Klutz?" Jack let out a sigh, and slowly turned on his heel. "Its not Klutz, Racetrack. Its Alexis" He was using some kind of tone i've never heard 'im use before, "Look I don't want ta see 'er now. Ya can if you want. Two doors down. I'm gonna leave. See ya Racetrack." And with dat he turned on his heel. I jsut stood there. 'Jack is seriously being a downer lately.'

Once Jack was around the corner, I finally turned and started towards Klutz' door. 'What am I gonna do in there? Is this even a good idea? No just calm down.' My hand frooze above the door knob. My hand was shaking.

I opened the door. And the tears starting falling down my face at the sight I was looking at.

(Jacks' POV)

After walking out of the hospital, I automatically headed towards the Brooklynn Bridge. It was time to face Spot about what I saw the other day. 'There is something up with Spot that connects 'im to Klutz.

Sorry its soo short, But the next few chapters are gonna be really good I hope.
