A nice, clean place great for selling papes. Lots of houses and families.

Fancy shivered and ran along the cold cobblestone road. Still in nothing but her shorts and tank top. A chilly breeze blew and her teeth chattered. She stopped and leaned against a sandstone building. Her eyes fluttered closed for a moment and she wrapped her arms protectivly around herself....

A jacket fell around her shoulders, big enough to wrap around her. "Come on...We're almost there." Ace murmurred gently by her ear.

Fancy sighed and banged her head against the side of the building. "Ace... I must be crazy... you should have heard what he said that night.... I might as well give him back his ring.... he doen't want me anymore..." she let her head fall against the wall one more time and tears began streaming down her cheeks. But she managed to stop them after a couple of mintues... "I bet that Hannah bitch is back..." she told him, her eyes flashing, but the anger quickly turned into hurt. "Ace? Am i crazy for doing this?"

Biting his lip, he thought it over. "No, honey, but...I think maybe, you aren't hinking about Red. He's killin himself over dis, dahlin. He loves you."

Fancy hit her head on the wall "I thought so...." she sighed deeply "I love him to much... thats my only crime...." she turned her emerald green gaze to Ace. "I don't know why... but i can feel his presence...i just... can..."

He laid a hand on her head and pulled her into a gentle hug, "You two were made for each other, soul mates, and nothing can get between dat."

She hugged him back. Staring off blankly into space. "Ace... Have you seen him lately?" she wanted to know. She hadn't seen him since that night at McGintys... "Ace... i asked him why..." she let a tear fall down her cheek and onto his neck. "Why he was....wasting his time with me...." another tear. "I was drunk.... i didn't mean it..."

He ran hand through her hair, comforting, "Yes, i've seen him...Fancy, honey, i know you didn't mean it, but Red...he blames himself for everything, you know that. He's taken it very hard."

She looked at him. "Is he alright?" stupid question but she had nothing else to say. "I need to see him, and talk to him...." she looked at Ace's shoes for a moment than down at her own bare feet. "He said that i never talked to him or let him now what was going on with me..." guilt ran through her body like a blast of freezing arctic wind. "I didn't... because i didn't want to worry him any more...." she felt a single, cold tear roll down her cheek, she didn't brush it away, she embraced the cold, hard feeling it brought to her.....

He brushed it away for her, tilting her head up with a fingertip. "He's going to be fine, and so are you, dahlin. Cause you have each other, and i know you two can pull out of this." He smiled lightly, "Stubborn as mules and as tough as iron."

Fancy rolled her eyes at him "Jee thanks Ace..." she laughed slightly "Comparing me to a mule? thats the way to make a girl feel soooo much better..." she smiled and shivered "God... how much further from here?!" she wanted to be warm again, her legs and arms were bare and she had about an inch and a half of stomach showing, not exactly what people called apropriate in those times....

He pulled his jacket around her a little more and nodded, "Just up here, come on, you can do it. I know you can."

Fancy shivered, not from the cold but from what was yet to come. She gave him a strained smile and continued along the road......

"You can handle it, you both can." He murmurred as they neared the Brooklyn Lodging House, "All right. I believe in you, Fancy."
