I tried not to look at him but that didnt really work because he walked over and slamed my papers down.
"Hey kid what are you doing selling where i sell huh?" I looked at him and thought he was the most handsom person ever. I kept staring at him. He was around my age 15 or so. He had the most beatiful eyes. They were a perfect light brown! It looks like they had some icy blue mixed in also. He was wearing a cap on his head but you could tell his hair was brown.
"Hey kid whatcha staring at?" He said very harshly while he took out a jimmu , i think it was, out of his belt. I hadnt relized I was staring at him untill he said that. "I umm was just staring at the mud on ya face." He gripped his jimmy really tight. So tight his knuckles turned white.
"Ya better watch ya mouth kid" He said he narrowed his eyes. I could tell i shouldnt have said that. Damn it! His friend pushed me onto the ground while I was thinking. "
Ya think ya so cool kid? Well let me tell ya somthing ya dont mess wit me gots it?" He said leaning down and putting his jimmy to my chin like it was knife. "Are you trying to scare me by your cane jimmy thing? Cause it aint not knife or sword." I said. Im a real big smart-ass and I dont think it is a good thing right now. His friends grapped both my arms and brought me into a dark ally.
"Ya dont know when to shut up do ya kid? Well let me tell ya- Wait do ya know who I am?" As he was talking all I was focusing on was his eyes.
"Hey kid! i asked ya somthin so ya or do ya not know who I am?" He said. He was getting mad and that aint good. " N-no i dont sorry." I said. " Hey Spot maybe you should tell him who you are huh?" The boy on my right said to him.
"Ok I will! Boys let him go and ill teach him that he shouldnt mess wit me." I looked at him confused and just then he kicked me in the gut. I doubled over in pain. He kept kicking and punching me. The second he stopped to pin me against the wall I took off my hat to let him know I was a girl.
"Please stop!" He just looked at me. Instead of his face mad and angry his face softned. Weird... "Whats ya name girl?" He said as his face got hard again. "C-christine" I said trying to sound strong but falling miserably.
"What are you doing in Brooklyn? Im sure Jack told ya not to come here right?" He asked like as if I knew Jack like we were best mates. "Umm no sorry mate" I said with my thick Austrilian accent on accident.
"Oh sorry! I didnt mean for my accent to come out but i guess i did and well ya sorry.. I should get going... so yea umm bye!" I started to walk but he held out his jimmy in my way.
"Will i see ya round here again?" I looked at him like he was crazy! Which he was but I felt safe near him even though he just beat me up.
"Well thats for me to know and you to find out!" I out my cap back on and moved his jimmy outta my way. " Well bye Spot!" I started to walk but to be whipped around and kissed on the lips bye Spot. I kissed back. What did i just do?
"HEY GET YA HANDS OFF HIM! SPOT WHATS WRONG WITH YOU?!?!?!" It was race. Oh god! I noticed that it had gotten dark. Spot pulled away to talk to Race.
"Aye race! This guy is a goil! His names Christine!" Race didnt beleave him so he flipped my hat off. "SPOT! WHAT THE ELL?!?!!" I shouted with my Austrilian accent back. Great now Race is gonna think im a lier! This isnt good!
"But I cant wait to tell Jack! oh and ya pretty!" I was shocked. frozen. couldnt move from my spot. I put my cap back and walked in silance with Race back to the lodging house.
"You gotta tell Jack ok?" All i did was nod my head and go inside. "Umm hey Jack can i talk to ya?" I asked kinda nervous. "Umm sure? But Race gots ta come with me ok?" He looked at Race who mouthed "I already know what it is" Then he smirked at me.
Jack left to the fire escape and i followed him. " Jack im a ermm.. Im a girl." I said in my Austrilian accent and took off my cap. HE just stared at me like i was crazy. Im gonna get kicked out or soaked. Lucky me.
