Manhattans Queen and the Brooklyn King (A Spot Conlon love story)

Chapter 2 King of Brooklyn

"Well?" He says taking another step towards me.

"The names Ashton." I respond standing up abit taller as I look at him.

"Manhattans Dark Knight. Good to finally meet you's" he says spitting in his hand and holding it out. I smirk, and do the same and shake his hand.

"Yeah. Not sorry about the insult by the way." I say smirking.

"Well that's a shame. I guess I have to ask you to leave." He says smirking

"Nah. I'm here to talk to my friend. I haven't seen her forever. Now if you excuse me." I say turning away from him and walk away with Cass. 

Spots POV

"What just happened?"

"Dude. You just got told off by a manhattan newsie." Lukas says walking up with a chuckle.

"Ah Can It." I say and I walk after the two. "Hey! You can't just walk away from me" I say as they stop.

"Or what?" Ashton says rolling his eyes.

"Or I'll have to soak ya" I respond with a smirk.

"Nah." Ashton says walking up to me with a glint in his eyes. "I think... that I'm gonna do this instead" he says quickly grabbing my slingshot and running off with a laugh.

My blood boiling, I race after him as he runs into the streets of Brooklyn. 'This guy has guts' I think as he makes a sharp turn into a dead-end alleyway.

"No." I say as I recognize it. It's the home of some criminals that kill newsies. I hear a commotion of the men yelling and I race in after him to see that he's knocked out all the older men.

I stop and look at him. His hat has fallen off and I realize that he, is a She.

"Here." She says tossing my slingshot back to me.

"Your a girl" I say in shock.

"What? N-no" She stutters in her lower voice as she puts on her hat.

"Don't lie." I say annoyed.

"Ok fine. So what if I'm a girl?" She asks in a new, girlish voice. "Are you gonna send me away?" She asks as she looks like she's about to run.

"No. Your a newsie. That means I won't snitch. And now I can't soak ya for stealing this." I say sighing.

"Sorry. Now I need to get going. Tell Cass that I'll see her next week" she says as she tries walking past me.

"Wait. Why don't you hang out here abit?" I ask with a flirtatious smirk.

Ashlyns POV

A blush creeps into my cheeks as I hear his offer. "No way Conlon. I have to get going." I say as I start to walk past him. "But.. Maybe I'll see ya next week as well." I add with a smirk.

I stop once I stand next to him. "If you tell anyone that I'm a girl, I'll soak ya" I say before running off towards the bridge.

After a lot of pacing back and forth in front of the bridge I finally build up the courage to start crossing. "This isn't so bad.." I mutter to myself as it's not to busy and the wind has died down.

I spoke to soon.

A big gust of wind comes, snatching my hat from my head and blowing it towards the railing. "No!" I yell and race after it.

I catch it as I lean over the edge and I look down.

Bad idea.

My legs start to give out as I push myself away from the edge and into the road. I can't move as I see cars coming towards me.

Just as it seems like my life is over, I'm pulled off the road and into someone's arms as the cars zoom past.
