A week after the strike's conclusion and life seems great, the Newsies are all Carrying the Banner for 50 cents a hundred and Pulitzer, the Delancey Brothers, and Snyder are gone! Denton gave up his job as an ace war correspondent to remain in New York where he took control over The New York Sun. Jack "Cowboy" Kelly is sitting on the escape staircase waiting for Sarah Jacobs to wake up.
"Jack, you've got it bad for her" a recognizable voice said. when Jack turned he saw David chuckling.
"Oh, real smooth Dave." Jack mumbled. David was laughing again,
"why not go in & wake her up?" but this time, Jack's eyes never left the curtains of Sarah's room.
"I dunno, Davey. I just can't" David started to feel uncomfortable that his good friend and his sister were in love. stuttering, he said,
"why not come in for breakfast with my family?" but Jack just rejected it..
"naw.. I'm okay. Me, Race & Spot was gonna go to the diner." he started to get up... "Cya later, Dave"
Just as Jack was leaving, Sarah woke up and came over to the window, a broad smile across her face which turned merely to shock and then back to a grin.
"Davey? what are you doing out there?" but David merely replied,
"I live here, Sarah... Jack Was here, but he left"
"Well, why didn't he wake me? I wouldn't have min-" David laughed and then that faded to a smile. "How did you know he's the one I was looking for?"
"Oh, come on, Sarah, he likes you & you like him... It was a little weird for Les & me at first, but now, the only thing weird is that you 2 are waiting so long." Sarah smiled in the winter sun and told her brother she was going to get ready for work. the whole time, she couldn't help but wonder why "The Cowboy" of the Newsies was afraid to do something with barely any risk because she knew she'd go along with anything he said. Maybe it's because it's too predictable and he'd feel weird, a Newsie held down... then why did he meet me for a kiss that day? her thoughts were interrupted by a knock on her door.
"Come in"she half-mindedly answered. but noone entered, just the sound of her mother's voice,
"Sarah, there is no way I'm allowing you to work, look outside." well, there must be something extreme if her mother wasn't allowing her to work and once her head was out the window, she noticed that Manhattan was completely covered in snow and the few Newsies that were out were headed toward the diner.. she recognized Race by his cigar, Spot Conlon by his black cane and his voice, and, the third was "Jack!" she whispered excitedly. There was another knock at her door.
"Yes mother?" but Les barged in,
"no, Sarah, me, Les! Mom said that if you come with me & Dave, we can go to the diner." he got on his knees and prepared to beg, but Sarah put her hand on his shoulder and nodded her head "yes".
"OH thanks, Sarah!"Les yelled happily and rand out slamming the door behind him.
"No," she said smiling, "thank you." but why would mother make me take them, after all, Davey is responsible ...then it hit her, "Davey!" he walked in, as if on cue with a handsome grin on his face.
"your welcome," he replied..."now come on, Les is being a pain in the ass, now we've gotta go!" Sarah laughed and got her coat and the three were on the way to the diner...
