Drifter stepped back and shook her head, boys, could they go one minute without fighting?
"Ace, let Skits tell Jack. If Jack sees you in 'Hatten, this is gonna get real messy real quick," she said tiredly. Running a hand through her hair she sighed. Looking from Skittery to Ace she had to ask, "Can't youse two just get along for five minutes?"

it is my girl you are seeing Skittery sneered at him and stood to face him. Who did he think he was anyways? Drifter had lived without him for years.
"She'll be fine." He said with a certain sass. "Do ya really think I want her ta get hurt either?"
He snapped his attention back to Drifter and mumbled an immature excuse "he aint makin' it real easy ya know..."

Ace's arms were crossed, his voice pitched low. "Look, pal, im planning on letting you come into my terriotory with free passage, and keeping you from getting your reah kicked by Spot for bein in the Bronx in the foist place."
His raised his eyebrow. "So, dont start with me. I keep an eye on my kids, and i protect them. Drifter is my sistah in everything but blood, so sorry if i dont trust her with the enemy." Oops. he hadn't really meant to say that.

"That's it," the small girl shouted, interupting the two, "Don't know why I bothah. Youse two keep this up and I'll leave youse to eachothah and move to Queens."
Crossing her arms stubbornly she looked both boys over, "I'm not helpless youse know and I am standin' right heah. Really Ace, at least Skits is tryin'. Spected bettah of you..."

Skittery threw his hands up and groaned. Everything Ace said went in one ear and out the other when he heard his final word - enemy. He looked at Drifter and started to speak fast "See what I mean?! HE says stuff like that, beats up Sneaks an' ya exspect me ta get along wit him?!"
He bit his lip after Drifter's outburst and placed his hand on her shoulder. He couldnt think of anything to say to her except a quiet "sorry...i'se tryin'.."

"Well so much foh one of youse havin' a brain.." Drifter muttered, "Ace isn't himself right now, and yes I knows he beat up Sneaks, but you said yoahself I'd have been in a lot of trouble at the lodgin' house if they all knew Ise was from the Bronx."
Holding his hand she sighed, "It means a lot to me that yoah tryin'. What about you Danny?"

He nodded, "Yah, I'm sorry. I'll try harder." He hated being a leader sometimes, it was too much work and not enough time to manage it all. He took a deep breath and held his hand out to Skittery. "Sorry, kid. Truce?"

Skittery stared at the hand not wanting to take it. His eyes went back to Drifter and he sighed "Fine.." He huffed and grasped Ace's hand with his own. "Truce." The things he did for girls....

Finally content with the way things were going, Drifter grinned and threw her arms around around Skittery, "See now was that so hahd? If youse two had done that 10 minutes ago, this woulda been a lot easiah. Yoah a lot moeh alike then youse think."

Skittery wrapped his arms around her smiling until he looked back at Ace. He was still on edge with the guy, feelings didn't change with the snap of a finger or a handshake. "Yeah real alike..." He said with a cold sarcasm. He gave her a squeeze, his eyes still on Ace, before breaking away and going back to Sneaks.

Ok, so they still sort of hated each other, as long as they weren't beating each other Drifter was happy. Leaning on Ace she grinned up at him, "Youse two ah gonna be the death of me. And Ace, Ise 'preciate you doin' this foh me."

He ruffled her hair lightly, "Please, dahlin, dont make me regret this. If word got around that im doing this, Bronx would be in a tight fix, all right? I cant keep my kids safe if im being compromise like this, all right?" He pleaded with her, his eyes serious.

Drifter looked up at Ace with a mock cross look on her face, "What do you take me foh? The last thing Ise need is the two of youse gettin' in moeh trouble."

"Not him and me. Me, for letting you two stay together." He shook his head, giving her a hug. "Be careful, Roisin." He gave her a small kid on the cheek, "I have to get going."

Drifter nodded to show she understood, and realize that she really should be going. "Ise should prolly come back with you huh?"
