Hello! This chapter is kind of small and I tried writing more but it didn't come out right. School starts in two weeks so I'll probably update more during the weekends.

I was drifting in and out of sleep when someone started to pound on the door. Rose was standing at my bedside pulling on my nightgown sleeve, I stood groggily and walked across the room to take a look out the window.

"Who is it?" I heard Aunt Rita's muffled voice come from the far end of the one-room house.

It was too dark for me to be able to see.

"I don't know" I muttered.

I was too tired to raise my voice. My shift at the restaurant today was extra arduous and long. Eight hours of rushing around tables with delicate plates on your hands was not fun and lets not forget that I only had two fifteen minute breaks in between. Saturdays were awful.

Considering it was the middle of the night and someone wanted to break down the door I should have probably asked who it was first but my eyes could barely stay open and my limbs couldn't beat a slug in a race even if I wanted to. I slid the bolt and turned the key to unlock the door.

"What do you want?" I didn't care for politeness at the moment.

"Spot needs you" That sounded a lot like Jake. Well I didn't care who it was, I was just planning on telling whoever it was that they had the wrong house.

"Ok" I said before shutting the door. I was about to turn around again when there was some more knocking. With a sigh I slowly faced the door and opened it again.

"What?" I asked leaning against the door.

"Spot needs you to go to Manhattan"

I let out a laugh

"No"

This time I locked the door.

I made it to the bed when he knocked again.

"Violet!" I heard Aunt Rita whine.

"Fine!" I dragged myself out of bed and opened the door

"He better be half-dead if he want's me to go to Manhattan at this hour"

"No but something like that"

My eyes shot up from their drooping position.

"What?"

"Its a long story. Just come with me"

I turned towards my Aunt, she rolled over to face the wall.

"Make him go away"

I was taking that as permission.

"All right. Let me just get changed"

I had changed into a clean brown dress and threw on Aunt Rita's large coat. I felt frumpy and unattractive.

I was wary of following Jake in the middle of the night. For all I knew this was a trap. How did I know if he wasn't planning on murdering me? He did mug me once.

The walk was long and annoying, The rain didn't help either, it wasn't the tolerable cold rain. It was humid and it made me sweat and my hair was all a big ball of frizz.

Curse my curliness.

Manhattan was slightly less lonely. There was more people stumbling out of bars or sleeping on the streets. My worry about being killed started to fade when we headed down a familiar street.

It had been ages since I had last seen Irving hall. Jake took me around the back, just like Uncle Roger. I pushed down the nostalgia and stomped after Jake.

Worry started again when he took me up an even more familiar staircase.

"Where are you taking me?" I whispered, using the banister to pull myself up as my legs were too lazy to do it on their own.

"To Spot. Now be Quiet"

We stopped outside a door I really didn't want to see again out of embarrassment.

Before we went in Jake handed me a newsboy hat and instructed me to put it on.

"Why?" I asked.

"So people wont recognize you"

"I don't think-"

The door squeaked open. I threw on the hat and pulled it as low as I could, I might of or might of not jumped behind Jake.

"Make sure he stays in that bed. And no smoking, or drinking for that matter. I don't care if he begs for it, absolutely not. Do you understand me?"

"Yes Doctor. We'll make sure of it"

Oh My Gosh. It was Ruby!

I cowered more behind Jake.

The doctor said goodbye and walked off. Leaving the three of us in the dark hallway.

"Oh Hey Jake. The Doctor said he shouldn't see anyone right now"

"Really? Well I just wanted to check and make sure everything was all right"

Jake wrapped an arm around Ruby shoulders and started to lead her away, conversing about how worried he was.

He turned around and singled to the door with his head.

I nodded and turned the knob.

The room was pretty much the same. A merge of colors. Ruby's purple bed was neat as ever, Lucile's yellow bedspread was tucked tightly, Autumns blue pillows were gone, Judy's bed was dark like always, And Scarlet's bed was full of Spot. Which in retrospect is what she had always wanted.

My beloved boyfriend laid in bed, propped up by Autumns pillows.

"What did you do to yourself?" I asked, sitting down on the bed, right next to his legs.

Spot's eyes fluttered open, a pained smile overtook his features.

"Hey doll-face, you came" His voice was weak and strained. Spots eyes held a dim light and they didn't focus on anything.

"Yeah just for you" I brought my hand to his cheek "Now tell me, who do I need to beat up for doing this to you?"

Spot half-chuckled before he closed his eyes and scrunched his nose in pain, a groan was being muffled as he bit his lip.

"Spot, What's happened?" I scooted closer and lifted his drooping head.

"You should just let him rest. He was given morphine"

I jumped at the voice and snapped my head to the door.

A boy with sandy blonde hair and a red bandana was tied around his neck leaned against the door frame.

"I'm Jack by the way"

Oh god, Had we just been caught? What was supposed to happen now? I glanced at Spot but he was still passed out.

He raised his eyebrows after I stayed quiet.

I guess I should introduce myself but I didn't know who he was let alone what his intentions were. Why did I struggle so much with telling people my name?

"I'm Violet" I said, letting Spot's head go, the less incriminating this looked the better.

There was a pregnant pause before he pushed off the door frame and sauntered across the room to sit on Judy's bed.

"So, Violet what are you doing here?" His Green eyes rested on the stupid hat on my head. I could tell he wanted to laugh at me by the way he fought the smile on his lips.

Jerk, he could try harder.

"That's none of your business"

I was getting tired of saying that. I was just tired of everything.

"Well then we'll just have to wait 'till Spot wakes to tell us"

And Jack enters the scene! Let me know what you guys think in the reviews oh and stay awesome.
