Spot had just left the newsboy lodging house after having a meeting with Jack. He passed Race and Davey as they were on their way up. Spot waved and said hi to Race who returned the gesture and hi.

They went into the room as they normally did.

"You know Spot?" Davey questioned Race.

"Let's just say 'we've crossed paths'" Race replied.

"Was this before or after youse slept with him?" Jack butted in.

"Jack!" Race hit him. "Youse said Youse wouldn't tell anyone."

"Sorry." Jack said slightly laughing.

"Did you actually sleep with him?" Davey asked.

"Maybe Ise did, maybe ise didn't." Race said.

"He did." Spot said walking proudly, he never left. He was listening in. "And he do it again in a heartbeat."

Race just winked at him.

"There is a spare room if Youse want to use it. Ise sense sexual things here" Jack said.

Spot and Race smiled at each other. This was that start of something new.
