Spot's POV
"Race," How the-he's...he's awake! He's up and walkin! Why's he in Brooklyn? He only sells here part time...HOLY SHIT MY BOYFRIEND'S AWAKE! "RACE!?" I'm runnin up ta him! He's just standin there? He doesn't have any cuts or bruises! He looks fine! I'm only a few feet away from-OW! WHAT THE HELL!? I ran inta somethin...but nothin's here!
Race's got just a blank expression on his face and he's lookin at me like I'm see-through. Why's he doin this?
"R-Racer? Baby, it's me," What's goin-HOLY FUCK! HE'S STARTIN TA BLEED OUTTA NOWHERE! "RACE, ANSWER ME!" I'm tryin ta get ta him but this stupid non-existent thing's stoppin me! I can't do anything! "RACE!" my eyes shoot...open?
Wait...Race? Ohh, I was dreamin. Dammit, reality's comin back. Race isn't ok. It still looks like it's pretty late. Albert and Elmer are still cuddling. Racer's breath's still shallow, and he's still got tons of cuts and bruises. I prop myself up on my elbow, and my other hand's on his face. I'm rubbing his cheek. At least he's still breathin, I guess. I kiss him on the forehead and-
"YOU GOTTA COME DOWNSTAIRS!" THAT SCARED THE SHIT OUTTA ME! I look over, and it's Buttons. I turn over and sit up.
"What the fuck!?"
"...huh?" Well, he woke up Elmer.
"I SAID YOU GOTTA-"
"OK! You don't have ta scream! We're awake now!" I look over at Albert, who's holdin Elmer.
"Ok! I'm sorry just...C'mere!" Damn, what's he so excited about!? I get up, and I'm walkin towards the door. Buttons is sprinting down the hallway like a fuckin maniac! I rub my eyes cause the light's really fuckin bright...well, at least when you first wake up I guess. I'm over at the stairs. I'm walkin down them now, and everyone looks either confused, mad, or entertained. They's all talkin a lot! Jack's here now with a girl. She looks really young...wait! There's a girl? WAIT! A girl!? OH WAIT! RACE! RACE'S SISTER! I'm at the bottom of the stairs now.
"SHUT UP!" Well, that was good timing. "Oh...Hey, Spot." Bitch. Jack wouldn't care less if I was being slaughtered right here, right now. "Ok, look. I've got no idea why Race didn't tell anyone about her, but the point is-"
"You do know I can stand up for myself, right? I might be a girl, but you don't have ta treat me like I'm gonna fall apart because of an asshole telling me I don't belong." I like her already.
"Hey! I said you shouldn't be here, there's a difference!" We're all lookin at Finch with the same look on our faces. There's no difference...at all.
"There's really not." I didn't realize Albert and Elmer were down here. Elmer looks like he's gonna fall back asleep, I don't blame him. This is stupid.
"You guys done? Cause he told me why."
"He did?" Jack's so fuckin dumb I swear.
"No, I'm just sayin that ta waste my breath. Duh, Jack! I mean, why wouldn't he!?"
"Because you're you."
"...so you're sayin that because I'm his boyfriend, he wouldn't tell me about his childhood?"
"Wait...boyfriend!?" Oh...she doesn't know...whoops.
