‘ it’s you, it’s you, it’s all for you, everything i do. ’ ( @ spot , duh ! )

‘    yea,   yea.    we’se get it.    you don’t need ta’ make me feel like i owes you more,    higgins.    ’      separate chairs,   high-rise buildin’,   windows overlookin’ streets that ain’t like ‘da apartments from where they’se both are from,   white walls with artificial plants planted by the corners o’ ‘da office.    but s’nice view anyway              foreign,   but ‘t suits ‘da whole thing somehow.    a clean slate.   whateva’ ‘da past has been,   it’s somewhere out there,   but not in here,   not where their knees are touchin’,   where there’s a space between two chairs between them,   and yet they’se both leanin’ towards each other as if there’s never been a space there at all.    (    and it reminds spot o’ two teenagers only startin’ ta’ love,   only startin’ ta’ get on with what romance s’ about   -   the way they’se shy away and s’tryin’ not to say the wrong thing,   but how they’se keep comin’ back anyways somehow.    s’like they’se can’t get enough.   no,   never enough,   o’ one anotha’.    s’ how race and him had become over the past months,   over the past few weeks.    healin’s an odd process like ‘dat   —   odd,   ‘cause it all feels brand new even when they’se been here before,    yet   …    it ain’t bad.    no.   a lil’ strange,   a lil’ awkward at times,    but it ain’t bad at all.    )      ‘da back o’ spot’s knuckles grace over the curve o’ race’s jaw,   wantin’ ta’ bring ‘da other’s face closer,    but s’only a tease.    only a soft beckonin’.   jus’ ‘da fact ‘dat their foreheads are brushin’,   leanin’ so close,   and then pullin’ away at a breath o’ more confession,   s’enough.

‘    should’a known only a manhattan folk would get me this soft.    ’     but what spot wants ta’ say is,   i love ya’,   i love ya’,   i love ya’,   please wait for me a bit longer.    and s’ too much,   he knows,   too much ta’ ask    -    but spot   …   it ain’t like how he was when he came back,   or when he finally decided that he needs ta’ go away,    to figure his head out,   and crushed race’s heart that time.    he’s   -   better now.   race is waitin’ on him,   yeah,   and it’s   -   s’ good and it ain’t like spot’s doin’ nothin’ either.    he’s bein’ seeing his therapist,   and he’s been talkin’ about it more with people who were gone for five years,    just ta’   -    just ta’ not feel like he’s always on ‘da outside.    and then there’re days,   days like this,   that race comes along and they’se talk with the ‘da shrink togetha’,   and spot ain’t ever let race’s hand go,   not even once,   durin’ ‘da eighty-minute they’se in here.    it ain’t   -   the best,   and it’s slow,    but it’s   …    better.    spot likes better.    spot just   -    likes race,   really.    loves him.   his whole life before,   and his whole life now.   that’s   -   a good feeling ta’ learn again and again.    ‘   …   ya’ know i’m gonna marry ya’ one day,   right ?    ’

‘    well,    well    ——-    if it ain’t jackie boy comin’ ta’ visit.     ’      not ‘dat spot ain’t heard that he’s comin’,    ‘cause that’s just ‘dat way when you’se in brooklyn and ye’ held the title king o’er here.    ye’ know things.    and other boys crossin’ over boroughs are things that are usually bein’ told.    and when yer’ jack kelly on top o’ it all ?    news travel fast.    they has to;   s’ the few ways spot can still make sure he can keep most o’ the kids on his side safe.     ‘     now ta’ what do i owe’s dis’ pleasure ?     ’     /     from spot for @unionyzes​ !

            ‘     hold still,    dumbass.      ’       treatin’ wounds are apart o’ growin’ up when yer’ around the brooklyn streets territory.    or,   really,   he s’pose    -    in any streets ‘round new york.    spot gets that the city’s pretty alright,   and s’ been commercialised too much,    but the world’s ain’t got an idea how truly rough ‘t is out there.    not that it matters though   -   complainin’.   so,   spot won’t.   he sterilise the damn wound on the other’s forehead instead.     /    from spot for @racetracktm !
