Can a broken heart be mended?(A Spot Conlon Story)

Cant sleep.

(Time skip to after the first fight they took Crutchy and it's night now)
(Ignis POV)
I stayed up all night.I tired to go to sleep but I couldn't I thought about Crutchy ,and when I did fall asleep even for a second nightmares flooded my brain.I decided I was gonna head to the Brooklyn Bridge I always did that when I couldn't sleep the water always seemed to calm me down.It would just be me,the moon,and the water no one else,and I liked that.So I got dressed and headed towards the Brooklyn Bridge.
(Spots POV)
I tried to sleep I really did ,but my thoughts so many different thoughts flowed throughout my head some about the strike some about the girl ,and just other random things for that matter.So I went for the bridge the water always calmed me down because no matter how chaotic it got the sounds were always the same.No matter how many times the waves left the shore they always came back and I liked that.So I put on my clothes and started for the bridge.
(Ignis POV)
I was leaning on the railing of the bridge enjoying the water when I heard footsteps behind me.I wasn't afraid though. "Whatcha doing here?" I heard Spot ask it wasn't in a mean tone though it was more in a "shouldn't you be asleep by now" kind of tone. "Can't sleep." I replied "Oh,why not?" "Nightmares." He nooded his head to show he understood.Wow I cant believe I just said that I barely knew him and I trusted him. "How bout you?" I asked figuring he was there for the same reason. "Thoughts." He said looked like he trusted me too.I nodded my head at him to show I understood also. "I like to come to the water it always calms me down."He said "Me too." And we just stood there in comfortable silence listening to the water watching new waves come in and out.I looked over at him,He was still looking at the water his pale blue eyes sparkled with the moon. "You have pretty eyes."I said not even thinking "What oh uh..Thanks,sorry I'm not used to getting compliments." He laughed awkwardly while rubbing the back of his neck. "Yea, no problem." I said looking back towards the water.
(Spots POV)
We were looking at the water when "You have pretty eyes." I heard her say "What oh uh..Thanks,sorry I'm not used to getting compliments." I said rubbing my neck in the king of Brooklyn everyone fears me they don't compliment me. "What's your name?" "Ignis." "Ignis?" I asked as I had never heard that word. "It's Latin for fire." I knew why she had that name;her eyes if she was fixed in something a fire burned in her eyes and she would get whatever it was she wanted.It didn't take a genius to know that.
(Ignis POV)
After I told him my name I started to talk about the strike. "Were some of your thoughts about the strike?" "Yea,some." He replied. "Well if your worried about us being serious we got into our first fight with the scabbars ,but the bulls came." "Oh.." "Yea almost everyone got out in time." I said thinking back to Crutchy "Almost..Everyone?" Spot asked sounding confused "yea they um...they took Crutchy." I said my voice cracking but I held back my tears I couldn't let him see me cry.
(Spots POV)
She was telling me about the fight and how they got Crutchy when her voice cracked it kinda hurt me I don't know why but I didn't wanna see her hurt. "I'm sorry..." I said with so much guilt.
(Ignis's POV)
"I'm sorry..." I could tell he really was sorry by the sound of his voice "The Delancys dragged him away gave him a good soaking." And suddenly my sadness turned to anger. "Those stupid Delancey brothers when I see them!!" I said and everything went black.The next thing I knew Spot was in front of me grabbing my wrists to stop me from doing something as I looked down I saw.I had started punching the bridge my knuckles were bloody and torn up. "Hey.Hey.Hey, it's okay just breath okay? Breathe." Spot said in a soft tone as if he was talking to a startled animal which actually seemed to calm me down.I took a few deep breathes before Spot met me go and grabbed my hand. "Cmon let's get ur hands fixed up before you head back to 'Hatten." I just nodded my head and let him take me where ever.We got to his dock and into his room he sat me on the bed and told me to wait there.He came back witch some bandages,a rag, and water to wash off the cuts and blood.I let him do what he needed to do even though the rag kinda hurt when he tried to put it on gently but his hands were just to strong having he had gotten into many fights and used them all day,but the most I did was cringe at the pain while he said "I know,I know it's almost done." "Ignis?" He asked "Yes,Spot?" I asked back "Why do you punch walls so much?" he said seeing previous scars do to other times I had punched a wall or two. "I don't know.Its a habit I can't quit I guess.It kinda helps with the pain and keeps me from punching anyone else most of the time." I said responding to the question. "Okay." He said moving on to tend to my other hand. "Spot?" I asked "Yes, Ignis?" He replied just like me and I didn't know weather he was mocking me or if that's just how he talked. "Am I insane?" I asked thinking back to all the times I had done something stupid or crazy for example:Punch a wall. "Nah sweetheart,just broken and scarred." Sweetheart?Did Spot Conlon just call me sweetheart?Maybe it was to help me feel better.And how'd he know I was broken ?
(Spots POV)
Omg I can't believe I just called her sweetheart what's wrong with me!Omg what is this girl doing I hope she thinks it's to help her.
(Ignis's POV)
Spot was done fixing my hands and we started to walk back to the lodging house in Manhattan when I actually got tired and slowed down. "With that pace your keeping we'll be back to Manhattan by selling time." He remarked "Oh shut up Conlon!" I said yawning. "Alright.Come here." "What?" And before I could protest he picked me up bridal style and started carrying me to the house and for the first time in a long time I fell asleep peacefully with no nightmares I finally felt safe.
(Spots POV)
After bandaging her up we started towards Manhattan but I noticed she was slowing down I wasn't suprised hell ,I would be that tired to if it weren't for the fact that I stayed up practically every night. "With that pace your keeping we'll be back to Manhattan by selling time!" I said to her I didn't mean for it to sound rude I just wanted her to hurry up. "Oh shut up Conlon!" She said while yawning. She was gonna pass out any second this would take forever if I didn't do something. "Alright.Come here." "What?" Before she could argue I picked her up bridal style and as soon as I did she fell asleep. I guess she wasn't having any nightmares because she was sleeping like a baby. I carried her all the way to the lodging house and put her on the only empty bed which I assumed was hers.Then I left to go back to sleep in Brooklyn and I thought about Ignis the whole way.I think I like her and not just as a friend.....
