Spot's POV
TW: Coughing up blood (is that a trigger? Idk I'm just gonna be safe)


...Somethin's wrong. It's night and Racer isn't here. Also, I can just feel it. I felt it earlier too! I'm not waitin here any longer! I'm goin ta see what's wrong. I'm walkin back up towards the bridge. I've been waitin in that spot for about an hour and I'm done! I know he wouldn't stand me up, so somethin happened to him. I'm speed walkin.

I turn and now I'm on the bridge. There's someone else runnin in my direction. It's almost eleven! Who the fuck else would be runnin on the Brooklyn Bridge at ELEVEN!? They kinda look familiar. Yeah, they's really familiar! Wait!

"Jojo!? What the-"

"Is Race with you!?" S. H. I. T.

"Well, fuck!"

"Wait so he's not!?"

"No! He was supposed ta be though! When's the last time you saw him!?" My hearts beatin about as fast as those horses were runnin yesterday!

"When he was walkin you to the...well...here. No ones seen him since!" SHIT SHIT SHIT! Only one thing coulda happened to him!

   "Listen ta me! We're gonna fuckin sprint back ta your guy's lodging house. When we're there I'm gonna talk ta Jack, then I'm gonna get Racer back! When I'm gone...wait how close're Racer and Elmer?"

   "Umm pretty close. Al and I are his best friends so maybe a little less close then us. They're still close though." I didn't need the whole description.

   "Ok so, when I'm gone don't let Elmer know shit! He's already broken!"

   "Wait! You know where he is!?"

   "Yeah."

   "WHERE IS HE!?" Jeez!

   "I'm gonna tell you but if you tell Racer you know so help me GOD-"

   "OK! I won't tell him!" I take a deep breath.

   "Long story short, he's gettin the shit beat outta him by his dad he ran away from when he was eight." His eyes're huge!

   "...Holy-"

   "Ok we don't have anymore time ta talk, let's go!" We's both bookin it down the bridge! I swear if he's hurt too bad there's gonna be a fuckin homicide! I didn't want gettin Racer's sister back ta be like this! He could be dead! NO! I can't think about that! I gotta focus on gettin back ta Jack! I might hate the guy, but right now that ain't the problem!

   It's a little cold, and it's makin me think of Racer! How does he get so cold!? I wanna hold him like I did yesterday. I want him here, where I know he's safe. Of course, he isn't safe! Oh God, he's probably fuckin terrified! I'm scared too! It takes a lot for me ta get scared and right now I'm scared shitless!

We's really runnin! Damn, I didn't know this kid was so fast! We're at the middle of the bridge already! I'm gettin more and more scared! I'm not supposed ta let anything bad happen ta him and here we are! I'm his fuckin boyfriend and I let this happen! I pass Jojo. I need ta get ta my Racer!
