a snicker was let out, leaning his head back before he began his climb up. “atta girl ! you’re the boss.” reaching the top he took a seat and took in the view. “brooklyn gets prettier every time.”

⠀⠀⠀⠀“Much as I love Pips she ain’t much of a fighter. She got a hit in and that was about it. So I was the one who beat his ass . ” Spot started up the fire escape , pulling herself up and them climbing the ladders.

⠀⠀⠀⠀“Mm they fight a lot but one o’ the boys who works on the docks was talking out his ass so I put him in his place . ” Spot shrugged before wrapping her arms around Race firmly , jaw resting on his shoulder.

“a scuffle over what ? girls fight ?” asking he glanced around the alleyway to keep a look out for them. “but before that , just. . .” before speaking he got off the wall and gently pulled her into a hug.
⠀⠀
⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀Hands stuffed in her pockets she shrugged glancing over her shoulder “It was just another day. We had a little scuffle I had to deal with but it was nothin’. What about you? Wanna climb up tell me what happened?”
⠀
⠀
“yeah think so ? doesn’t take long when you wanna see someone special.” leaning against the wall he adjusted his hat, with his eyes fixated on her now. “how was yer day, sugar ?”
⠀⠀
⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀A quick glance down and she’s scaling the fire escape , hopping down the last story or so . “ I get why they call ya Race , I think you broke your record . ”
