Spot was waiting at the bridge for Bridges. He would be taking the kid along for the leader meeting. Even though the meeting's focus would be on borders, it was the perfect opportunity to introduce the new leader and give Bridges a glimpse of what it will be like to work with other borough leaders.
The kid wasn't late, but Spot was feeling antsy. This meeting was going to be an interesting one to say the least.

Things had been tense lately. As the meeting that everyone had spoken about had approached, things had gotten more tense in the boroughs. Lacey knew that Spot stepping down was eminent, but when she had caught a glimpse of him waiting at the bridge towards the end of the day that the meeting was set to take place, she slowly approached. It seemed as though Bridges wasn't there yet... and things were bound to change a lot that night.
"Ya alright?" She cleared her throat as she approached.

"Ya alright?"
Spot looked up, hoping to see Bridges, but quickly realizing it was Lacey. They hadn't really talked much the past couple of days. The two hadn't been avoiding each other, but they really had much time to talk with Spot preparing Bridges for the meeting and being a leader. The little they spoke had been mostly small talk.
"Yeah, just waitin'."

"Yeah, just waitin'."
Lacey sighed softly. As much as she had missed really getting to talk to Spot, she knew that now wasn't the time. He undoubtedly had a lot on his mind with what was still to come that night, and she didn't want to make him feel worse.
"Are you ready for tanight?" She bit her lip.

"Are you ready for tanight?"
Spot glanced at her and shrugged. He wasn't sure. He hoped he was. There was no telling what the other boroughs' reaction would be to the borders and to the new leader of Brooklyn. He just hoped things would be settled without too much drama.

Lacey let out a soft sigh at the response, figuring that it made sense. There was a lot that would be changing that night... and it was all terrifying.
"Good luck, Spot." She murmured.

”Good luck, Spot.”
He gave her a slight smile. “Thanks...”
He appreciated the gesture... and he could use all the luck he could get.

"Thanks..."
Lacey responded with a matching small smile, swallowing back her worries about the night. "I'll leave ya to it, then." She murmured, stuffing her hands in her pockets and turning to walk away in silence. Hopefully, all would end well.

”I’ll leave ya to it, then.”
Spot nodded. “Thanks...”
And now... just to wait until Bridges arrived. He hoped th newsie hadn’t forgotten that today was the meeting.
