Chapter 4

"I have a question, what is Jack Kelly like?" I asked

"Well, Jack is sweet, caring, and like an older brother to me." "Why do you wanna know" Les asked

"Well because my sister is dating him" I said

"Oh, I am guessing your father does not want your sister dating him." Les said

"Well, yeah and he also does not want her working for the Sun Newspaper, but she is never going to quit her job. You and I both know that" I said

"Okay, well there's this thing for Newsies tonight, it is on the block where the World Building is, I was wandering if you wanted to come. " Les asked

"Well, most people would probably not want me there because I am the daughter of Joseph Pulitzer, also because I was not around when the strike happened, they do not know me and I have a feeling they won't want to get to know me. " I said

"Well, Darcy, Bill, and Katherine are going to be there. I could say we went out on a date and I forgot about the thing tonight" Les said

"Okay, only if you don't almost get caught by Morris again" I said

" Deal, also who is picking you up at school today" Les asked

"Oh, I forgot Morris and Oscar are picking me up today, and if I am not there when they are going to pick me up they will know I was with you. I said

"Well we are going to have to run you over to the school building right now." Les said

*at my house*

"Dad, I am going out tonight on a date." I said

"Who are you going out with a date on?" my father asked

"Les Jacobs" I said

"okay, but I want you home before midnight" my father said

"Okay, thank you" I said

*walking up the stairs to my room*

"Morris and Oscar come in." Mr. Pulitzer said

"We know why Les Jacobs seems so familiar." Morris said

"Why?" Joseph asked

"He works for the world. We saw him today getting newspaper" Oscar said

"Okay, thanks boys" Joseph said

*tonight*

*They left; they did not know that I was on the stairs listening into their conversation. Les comes and picks me up. Les knocks on the door, I open up the door*

"Come in "I say

"No thank you, we should probably get going because our reservation is at 7:30." Les said

"Okay, Bye dad" I yell

"Okay, where do you want to go, it is up to you." Les said

"Well, I don't care as long as I am with you." I said

"Well, we could go walk around get food on the street." Les

"Yeah, that sounds fun. " I say

*he takes my hand. We smile at each other. We walk around. His friends Romeo and Race see us . They come over to us. We let go of each other's hand

"Hey Les" Romeo said

"What's up" Race said

"Oh nothing just out with my friend Emily" Les said

"Hi Emily, you know you look a lot like Mr. Pulitzers youngest daughter." Race said

"Hi, and I know a lot of people always tell me that" I said *with a snotty attitude*

"Well, we have to get going" Les said

"Bye" Romeo said *as Les and I walked away*

"Les we have to be more careful. We almost got caught" I said

"Okay, we will be more careful next time." Les says *he grabs my and entwines our fingers and kisses the top of my hand. Romeo and Race saw us. They go looking for Katherine, Davey, and Jack Kelly. *

*with Romeo and Race*

"We have to go find Katherine and Davey, and Jack. I am pretty sure Davey and Katherine would like to know that there younger siblings are dating" Romeo

"Your right, Lets go" Race said

*They find, Katherine, Jack Kelly, and Davey*

"Hey Race" Davey said

"Hey Davey" Race said

"We know something that you might want to know" Romeo said

"Well, what is it" Jack asked

"Um, Davey you know your brother" Romeo said

"Yeah I know my brother, what has he done now" Davey said

"Um, Katherine you look like the girl we just saw with Les" Race said

"Yeah really, she is probably my sister." Katherine said

"You have a sister" Race asked

"That's not important right know" Katherine said

"Just tell us" Jack said

"Okay, Les and Katherine's sister are dating" Romeo

"What?" Davey said

"Did you not hear him" Race asked

"I did, he said that your brother is dating her sister" Jack said

"I really don't think Emily would be dating yet because her boyfriend just broke up with her" Katherine

"Okay, anyway do you have proof?" Davey asked

"Well, we will show later, right we have to get to the party on the block, or else we are late." Race said
