Hey, sorry I haven't really gotten to post a lot lately. Family is in town for Thanksgiving holiday and the teachers have decided to break our backs with the homework we get. So I'm not the happiest person right now but hope you enjoy your new chapter.

Disclaimer: I don't own Newsies or anything else I refer to!

Taylor and Katherine were over at my apartment helping me getting ready for my date with Spot. I had on a nice dress but not too nice, my hair was up in a straightened pony tail, and I had a little makeup on. "Hey, Katherine, how'd ya even meet Jack?" I asked her.

"Well, it was during the newsies strike and I was writing an article on them. I met Jack and we talked. He seemed SO annoying at the time but I admit I had a little crush. The strike went on and Jack had been caught by the police and brought to my father's office. That's when he found out I was a Pulitzer and I found out he had been in the refuge. Later, we talked about and we were so close to kissing but he didn't. The strike soon ended and I found out he already had a girl, they were kissing. It was David's sister, Sarah. I was jealous at the time and I cried but then the Delancey brother saw me. I was nervous but I was strong I punched them both, they didn't like that they tried to… tale advantage of me. Then, Jack came and he told me he was in love with me not Sarah. We kissed and my dad still hates him so yeah." Katherine told us.

"That's nice, I just ran straight into Spot after a show."

"Noelle introduced me to Blink", Taylor said.

We heard a knock on the door and Spot was there holding a bouquet of flowers. "Heya, pretty goil", he said.

"Hey Spot, thanks for the flowers", I said as he handed them to me, "here come in. Taylor and Katherine are here, just helping me get ready."

"Hey goils"

"Hi Spot, we were just heading out", Katherine said grabbing her things off the counter.

"See you later, guys" I tell them.

"So, youse ready fah de best night at your life"

"Yes, I am"

"Alrigh', I got us a reservation at dis Irish place. A little pricey but hey anything for de most beautiful goil in da world." Spot said making me blush.

"Spot, you know you don't have to spend money on me", this was the number one lie in the girl book.

"Eh, I did. So let's head out". We walk for a little while until we find this cute Irish Café. We were taken to our seats by the waiter.

About an hour or two later

Dinner had gone nicely, Spot and I had split a steak and now we were walking to nowhere in particular.

"Razzle, I know our relationship is complicated but I really do love ya"

"I love you too, Spot. I think I should head home soon, if you want to stay with me tonight you can", I told him.

"Suah, I'd love ta"

We went to my apartment and I slipped into my nightgown before letting Spot into my room. We got under the covers and I snuggled into his chest as he put his arms around me. I fell asleep as soon as my head hit the pillow.

The Next Morning

I woke to the sound of pounding on my door and Taylor calling my name. I got out of bed causing Spot to wake up. 'Sorry' I mouthed at him. I opened the door, "What do you want Taylor?" I asked in annoyed voice.

"Oh my god, Noelle, you'll never believe it!" She told me with a squeak.

"What?"

"The parts for Nutcracker came today and you're Clara!" This caused me to shriek and jump up and down causing Spot to get up.

"What happened?" He asked rubbing his head.

"I GOT CLARA!" I was so excited. Clara was my dream role; I can't believe I got it. What was next a job as a touring ballerina?

"Dat's great, Razzle but do ya have to be so loud?" He asked tiredly

"Yes, she does", Taylor stated smiling.

Spot groaned and went back to go lie down on my bed. I couldn't believe it, I was cast as Clara.

A Few Days Later

Today was my last day on break. Spot and I didn't have any troubles these last few days. We just hung out and did coupley stuff together. We went on walks by the water and held hands all that kind of stuff. I did and didn't want to leave, I would miss home and Spot and the rest of my friends. I heard news that they decided to cancel Grease because they would rather do something more classical like Nutcracker. I was happy with this because we all found Grease confusing. I mean a horse that goes really fast, so what? Anyways, I was walking over to Brooklyn to say goodbye to Spot. I was almost there when I got pulled into an alley by two scary looking men.

"Well, look who we have here, the dancer that got a scholarship to the dance school." One of them said

"Do you even know what a scholarship is?" I asked him being snippy. Well, that wasn't a smart idea. He gripped onto my hard causing me to whimper.

"Oh Marty, this one'll be easy. Ballerinas are weak little creatures". Did he just call me weak? Oh he was going to regret that. I went into a tendu then into a releve and hit him hard with my foot knocking him off of his feet then I started Spinning and when I was going really fast I hit the other guy. I stopped in first position and ran to the docks were Spot was seated upon his crates which he hopped down from when he saw me.

"Razzle, whattaya doin'"

"Um, running but I think I'm good now"

"What happened?"

"Well, I was coming over here and some guy grabbed me said that ballerinas weren't tough I proved them wrong".

"Well, ya are suahly me goil". This caused me to laugh and smile.

We started to take a walk. He grabbed my hand making me smile at him and giggle. "I can't belie this is my last day until another few weeks. I'm going to miss you".

"Me too, Razzle, I wish ya could stay for good"

"I know but this is a once in a lifetime chance. I could have an actual chance".

"Can't ya just stay here wid me woik for Medda."

"Spot, you know I have bigger dreams."

"Dreams as big as da moon, Razzle, probably even bigger."

"Well…"

"So, in dis nutcracker performance when is it?"

"It's actually on Christmas day in New York".

"Really?"

"Yup, we're renting out Irving Hall. It's going to be packed but I have twenty reserved seats!"

"Dat's a lot"

"Yes, it is. I have to admit I'm a little nervous"

"Don't be noivous, youse da most beautiful goil in all o' New York"

I blushed and squeezed his hand; he squeezed back and spun me into his arms. He kissed me softly and slowly. His hand caressing my cheek, I ran my hands through his hair deepening the kiss. He happily obeyed biting my lip asking for entrance as I allowed him. Spot broke off the kiss. "Come wid me", he pulled me along to the Lodging House and we both practically sprinted up the stairs to Spot's room. We kissed again, gaining more and more passion. He put his arms around my waist bringing me closer to him and I put my arms around his shoulders. Before, I knew it we were on his bed, my legs intertwined with his and my hair everywhere. We couldn't focus on anything but each other. I was running my hands up and down Spot's chest eager to feel more of his skin. Spot suddenly stopped kissing me.

"No, Noelle, you aren't ready yet"

Oh wow, I forgot where this was heading. That's an interesting little twist.

"Riiight", I said embarrassed.

"It's just dat, I don't want ya ta lose for nuttin'"

"Yeah, I guess I got a little caught up in the moment"

"So, can I walk ya home? You're trains leavin' soon"

"Oh, shit! I completely forgot"

"It's alright calm down. Who knew ya swore?"

"I did. C'mon I'm gonna be late and then Taylor's going to kill me"

"Alright, alright, calm down"

About an hour later

I said goodbye to Spot which was hard, I cried for a little after he left. Amanda said goodbye but she was busy at the moment so it was very quick. I had met Taylor at the train station who seemed a little flushed. Hmmm, I wonder what's up. We went to our train compartment and sat down.

"So, what's up?" I asked her.

"Well, Blink and I we were… kissing and yeah, then Jack walked in and he kind of embarrassed us by saying…" she mumbled the last part.

"What?"

"Wewerehavingsexwithclotheson "

"Use your words!"

"We were having *cough* sex *cough* with clothes on"

At this I burst out laughing and Taylor blushed really hard.

"Well, I can top that", I told her.

"Oooooh, tell me!" she exclaimed

I told her about my day with Spot and how I was about to lose my … virginity. She was laughing by the end of the story and this time I was red.

"Oh my goodness, that's embarrassing but I got you beat. For sure." Taylor told me between laughs. This was going to be an interesting train ride to the academy.

So tell me what you think! Should I involve Corey more to make there more drama? I AM SORRY I HAVEN'T WRITTEN IN FOREVER BUT I'M LIKE REALLY BUSY! Forgive me, please!
