"Heya Sweets, I got ya 50 papes." Blink hands Sweets the papers as they
walk off to Central Park.
"Nude Corpse found in Mayor's driveway." Yelled Sweets. The real headline read "Dead Skunk run over in Mayor's Driveway" but that was ok cause "improving da truth as Jack called it was Sweets specialty.
It was around lunchtime. Sweets stomach growled. "Uh Blink? Is there a place where we can eat lunch? I'se starving."
"Sure Sweets, we'll go to Tibby's. Dats where all da newsies of Manhattan eat. It's our hangout spot."
"Ok Blink show me how ta get there!" Sweets and Blink walked side by side to Tibby's. On the way there they sold the rest of their papes. As they walked through the door together, a million questions and comments. Blink saw Race Spot and Jack in a booth and went to sit with them.
"Hey boys." Race Spot and Jack looked up together as they saw Sweets and Blink's smiling faces.
"Heya Blink, Heya Sweets, how's it rollin?" Spot asked.
"Oh dear brudda of mine, do ya ever stop worryin about me?"
"Oh dear sista of mine, never will I stop and besides there's a show at Medda's tonight and you'se gotta come wit us."
"Oh joy! Do I need a dress? Cuz uh, I'se don't gots one."
"Sweets, come with me and Spot to Medda's while Race, Blink and the otha boys get ready for tonight."
"Ok sure. Do I'se need a dress? Is that why we're goin ta Medda's? So I can gets a dress?"
All these questions and more were asked by Sweets. Most of the time she got an answer they were there.
"Medda! Where are you?" Jack called out in the empty hall.
"Jack! Where ya been Kid?"
"Medda, you know me brother Spot, and this lovely lady is our sista, Sweets."
"Hello there Spot, Sweets. How can I help you three today?" Medda asked nicely. "Well Medda, Sweets just got here, and she don't got a dress. We was wonderin if she could borrow one of your dresses to wear tonight. Oh and nothing too revealing."
"Of course Jack. Why don't you two boys go on back to the lodging house to get ready and I'll take care of Sweets and you guys can meet her here later."
"Okay Medda. Bye Sweets. Be a good goil. Nuthin too revealing." Jack and Spot called as they were leaving.
"Stupid older brudda's. They always telling me what ta do. Don't dey know I'se old enough to take of meself?" Muttered Sweets Loud enough for Medda to hear.
"Hunny, I know how you feel. I might have just the dress. It's a little low cut, but your brothers will just have to deal with it."
They both started to laugh as Medda handed Sweets a Periwinkle dress. The dress was strapless and Sweets had to wear a corset. Usually she hated wearing them, but tonight she was impressing Blink. The dress was made out a satin material that went to the floor with little diamonds sewn on the dress. Medda curled her hair and gave her matching boots for her dress. She looked stunning.
Sweets walked outside of the dressing room and went to sit at one of the tables. She started singing to herself
Well, it's a marvelous night for a Moondance
With the stars up above in your eyes
A fantabulous night to make romance
'Neath the cover of October skies
And all the leaves on the trees are falling
To the sound of the breezes that blow
Sweets got up and started to dance. To the sound of the breezes that blow
And I'm trying to please to the calling
Of your heart-strings that play soft and low
And all the night's magic seems to whisper and hush
And all the soft moonlight seems to shine in your blush Can I just have one a' more Moondance with you, my love
Can I just make some more romance with a-you, my love Well, I wanna make love to you tonight
I can't wait 'til the morning has come
And I know that the time is just right
And straight into my arms you will run
And when you come my heart will be waiting
To make sure that you're never alone
There and then all my dreams will come true, dear
There and then I will make you my own
And every time I touch you, you just tremble inside
And I know how much you want me that you can't hide Can I just have one a' more Moondance with you, my love
Can I just make some more romance with a-you, my love Well, it's a marvelous night for a Moondance
With the stars up above in your eyes
A fantabulous night to make romance
'Neath the cover of October skies
And all the leaves on the trees are falling
To the sound of the breezes that blow
And I'm trying to please to the calling
Of your heart-strings that play soft and low
And all the night's magic seems to whisper and hush
And all the soft moonlight seems to shine in your blush One more Moondance with you in the moonlight
On a magic night
La, la, la, la in the moonlight
On a magic night
Can't I just have one more dance with you my love Sweets heard clapping and cheering. She turned around to see Medda Jack Race and Spot Clapping and whistling. "Sweets dear that was wonderful I want you to perform in my show tonight," "Oh Medda I couldn't. I'm not that good. Besides, I have stage fright. I'll do it, just not tonight." "I understand dear. That's fine. The party is going to start soon so you better grab some seats before all the boys talk them." Sweets smiled. It was one of the few times in her life she had smiled. *I know I know. Real sappy and gay but maybe if you push the little review button and make a few suggestions my story wouldn't be so gay! Oh yeah, don't worry about the whole R rating thing; I'm not don't yet! It's gunna have smut and all that great stuff! ;-) hehe!
