I woke up with a sore back.  It had been too long since I had slept on the floor, I used to sleep on the floor all the time but that's another story. In this story my floor sleeping capabilities are very out of shape and so I woke up with a sore back.  Addy was still asleep when I woke up.  I smiled when I saw her, I couldn't help that she was so damn cute when she was sleeping, to be fair though she was so damn cute all the time, but when I see her during the day if I just smile at her like crazy she'll think I'm a lunatic.  I had decided that I wasn't going to sell the day before so I allowed myself to sleep in a little bit more.  I put my hand on addys forehead and lightly pushed a piece of hair out of her face.  Then I started getting ready for the day.  Eventually though she woke up. 

"Hey yer up" I said seeing her reflection from the mirror where I was getting ready

"Uh, yeah" she grabbed her head and I could tell she was still in pain. She should definitely stay the day at least.  She was in no condition to walk home.  

"Ya feelin any bettah?" I figured I should still ask to make sure even though I already pretty much knew she wasn't. 

"A little, I guess" lies "what time is it?"

"Eh, a little past 11" I told her. Her expression became a little shocked. She looked at me with a confused look on her face but I could tell that the furrowing of her brows was hurting her head because there was pain behind her eyes. 

"Shouldn't you be out sellin?" She asked me.  

"Nah, took the day off, hadda make sure you woke up ok an' all that" I walked back over to the mirror from the dresser next to the bed where I had gotten a shirt and buttoned it up. I grabbed a comb and started going through my hair.

"Where am I?" Wow, I thought, jack keeps this girl on a tight leash, she doesn't even know where Brooklyn is. Can't blame him though, she gets herself into plenty of trouble, I would be protective too.

"Brooklyn"  I smirked. Her obliviousness was adorable.

"What you got your own house or somethin?"  I had forgotten that in Manhattan they don't give their leaders separate rooms. I had to explain that I get my own room to her.

"And why are you so special?" She asked. Ha,  it's like she had been living under a rock.

"Because" I smirked and looked at her "I'm spot Conlon" 

I started rolling up my sleeves and turned around to face the bed. I saw addy trying to sit and and failing miserably.  Dang she is worse than I thought if she can't even sit up. I took a step towards her instinctively. She tried again to sit and stand up and after almost falling twice she balanced standing up.  I had rushed to her side when I saw her about to fall I held my hands out to catch her but she stayed up. She tried to walk away.

"Woah woah where are you goin?" She was not ready to walk home she was in too much pain.  She told me about getting back to Hattan and how jack was gonna milk her and she was gonna lie about where she was. 

"Yeah no way, youse is not ready ta walk all the way back yet." I tried to get her to sit back down. 

"Are ya kidding me? Do you know how much trouble I'm in? I have to go." She pushed past my hands and stumbled across the room. 

"Nah, we can getcha out of that"  I was trying my best to stay calm because I knew addy and I knew if I started yelling she would and her body can't take yelling right now. I had to stay chill.

"Umm no ya can't. You are the trouble I'm in. You'se is in jut as much trouble as I am." Hey hey did I just hear her say youse? This girl is picking up the Brooklyn accent.

"Me? Whateva for?" I said jokingly but I guess she wasn't in the mood for jokes.  

"This ain't a joke spot! I was out later than I shoulda been, I got soaked, I was with you of all people" me of all people what's that supposed to mean? "I went home with you I slept in your bed"  I was started to get angry, but that anger immediately faded when I saw a bit of a tear coming from her eyes.  The anger turned into sadness, and all I wanted to do was hug her and tell her that it'll be ok and I won't ever let her get hurt again.  But instead she just said that she's thankful for me saving her but she has to go. And off she went.  And I just stood there, I had no idea what to do.  There I stood for about 5 minutes.  And then I went out the door and found one of the best spies, bloc.

"Hey bloc. Didja see that goil leave the house just now?" 

"Yeah I saw her. Limping? Crying a little? Dang spot you really messed that goil up."

"Shuddup bloc I didn't do nutin ta her. Listen I need ya ta follow her back to the Hattan house,  make sure she gets there safe and don't let her see ya."

"Ya got it boss" he said and turned to leave. I ran my hand through my hair.  She drives me crazy if only I didn't like her so much. 

I had one more matter of buissiness to attend to.  I grabbed my hat and headed out towards manhattan.
