Ok here's a first...a PERSONAL shout-out!
Sapphy-Wow, you've reviewed for every chapter of both of my stories!! I feel soooo loved!! But yeah of course I am on speaking terms with Disney. I talk to them daily about Newsies. Doesn't everyone? I say "Come on! What are you doing with them anyways? Just give them to us!!" They say "We're Disney. We can do whatever we want." *sticks tongue out at Disney!!!* Man, the things we could do with Newsies if we owned them. First of all, we'd get them all together and have a nice little reunion!! Excluding all the wives and girlfriends of course. Hehe. Hmmm...*Looks at Sapphy's worn down red and pink colored pencils* Is it deja vu?? I don't think so.
Trigger-I love you!!!!!!!!! I read your review for Girl of his Dreams-haha. I think I know now that the story is awesome and so cute! I love you though. Snitch is such a great actor isn't he??? LoL! I'll make sure to have him say lines every story!!! *slaps Disney with trout* LoL that was random and I dunno why I did it...but it's funny! I love you!!! Wow how many times have I said that now????
Written Sparks- Thanks so much!!!
Ok no more...
SPECS: WHAT?!?! Only three lousy reviews??
*scowls at the hottie that just appeared out of nowhere* Specs. WHAT are you doing out of the room? I swear I locked the door. How did you get out? Did you pick the lock again?!?
SPECS: Uh...I'm not at liberty to discuss that??
Ok...well, y'all can read the story while I punish Specs.
Specs and Blink waited eagerly for their girls while talking to each other. Finally, about 10 minutes before the party started, the washroom doors opened and the two sisters walked out. Specs and Blink couldn't believe their eyes (and eye). Olivia's hair down and completely straight. She had on shimmery brown eyeshadow blended up to the crease and perfect line of black liner under her light brown eyes. She had some brown lip gloss that made her lips shine. Rachel's hair was down as well, but it was wavy from the braids. She had no eyeshadow but a line of dark purple pencil on her eyelid and black below. Her lips were simple with a clear, glittery gloss.
Blink and Specs' mouth hung open, as did every other newsies'.
"What is everyone staring at?" Olivia barked. All the newsies quickly went back to whatever they were doing, except Blink and Specs. They had almost reached the two stunning girls when Racetrack called out, cutting into the noise.
"Hey guys! It's time to get to Medda's!" All the newsies cheered and crowded out the door.
*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*- *-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-
The walk to Irving Hall was cool, long and a tad romantic. The temperature had gone down quite a few degrees since noon and the weather was perfect. The two couples trailed the group of newsies by many yards. Olivia, being the very forward girl she is, almost immediately took Blink's hand and walked so close to him that their arms overlapped. Rachel once again had her arm resting in the crook of Specs' elbow.
They didn't talk much, not even Olivia and Blink. They didn't wanna spoil the perfect walk and the perfect evening. When they reached Irving Hall, all of the other newsies were already there, spread out at tables, waiting for them. Olivia and Blink sat down at a table with Mush, Bumlets, Race and girl that was introduced as Mouse. Rachel and Specs sat down with Skittery, Snitch, Jack and Crutchy.
They talked for a minute, but the curtains opened and Medda came out wearing a dark green, sleeveless, floor length dress with a deep "V" cut. (much better than those blinding pink ones eh? I thought the dark green complemented her red hair.)
"Hello newsies!" She greeted in her "sveedish" accent. All the newsies cheered, including Rachel and Olivia.
The first song she sang was the all-time favorite, "High Times, Hard Times". Then, she sang some new songs which was a real treat for all the newsies. After she finished a very jubilant and lively song, Medda hushed them all.
"Okay Newsies, here's an EXTRA special treat for you. This is a new song that's never been sung before in 1899 or any year before this. It's called Come What May." Rachel gasped with excitement. *Oh my gosh I love that song!!! Where did she get it though?? Oh well...this is a fan fiction and I'm not going to question it.* The lights dimmed and soft, slow music started to play. Medda began to sing a mellifluous love song. Blink seized the opportunity (and the day) and asked Olivia to dance. Just for dramatic purposes, he got down on one knee and put his hand over his heart, taking Olivia's in his other.
"I would be truly honored if I could have this dance." He gently kissed her hand and awaited the answer. Olivia decided to toy with him and hesitated.
"Umm...well...I dunno..." Blink's face lost all it's color and his smile faded. Olivia laughed and stood up. "I'm just kidding!! I would love to dance with you!" Blink stood up and led her to an empty spot on the floor amongst some other couples. Olivia wrapped her arms around his neck as he placed his hands on her waist. They were so close that their foreheads touched.
Specs watched all this happen and gathered up all his courage to ask Rachel. He didn't want to overdo it like Blink, so he politely asked Rachel, still sitting in his seat.
"May I have this dance?" He stood up, sticking out his hand.
"Of course." Rachel took his hand and followed him a few yards away from her sister and Blink. *Geez, Livvy. Getting a little close there, don't ya think?* Even though Olivia was only a year younger, she had had a lot more guy experience then her. In fact, Rachel had never even danced with a guy. She shook this out of her head and turned all her attention to Specs. (You remember him right? That guy with brains, wits and looks that's standing right in front of you?? Geez louise) She put one hand around his neck and the other in his hand so they were slow dancing old school style.
*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*- *-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-
At the end of the song, Rachel was kind of expecting a kiss, her first actually, but nothing happened. She glanced over at Olivia and was shocked and what she saw. Blink had leaned in to kiss her, but she turned her head sideways so he kissed her cheek. *Why would she do that??* Rachel obviously looked puzzled because Specs asked her what was wrong. *I'm not letting BOTH of us go unkissed tonight!* She put her hands behind Specs' head and pulled him into a kiss. Surprisingly, he hugged her tight and kissed her back.
Olivia happened to catch a glimpse of this sight and gasped.
"Oh my gosh!! Rachel!!" Everyone at her table quickly looked over to the lip-locking couple. Race started to whistle and Blink and Mush let out a loud cheer. Rachel pulled away, embarrassed from the public encouragement. Both of their cheeks turned bright red. Specs took Rachel's hand and led her out of the noisy room. Once they got outside, Rachel sat on the ground with her back against the door and buried her head in her hands. Specs sat down beside her, linking his hands together and placing his forearms on his knees.
"I'm really sorry, Specs." Rachel lifted her head, putting her chin on her arms. "I don't know what came over me in there. I guess..." She sighed.
"You guess what? You guess it was a mistake and you wish you could take it back?" Rachel's mouth hung open. She lifted her hand and set it on top of his.
"Specs, that's not what I was saying at all. I was saying, I don't know why I did it, but I liked it. And I really like you, too." Spes hung his head in shame. He had a tendency of putting words into people's mouths.
"Really?"
"Really." Rachel nodded and smiled. Specs smiled back and held her hand.
"I was hoping you'd say that." With that, he leaned in and kissed her. All of a sudden, the doors on either side of them opened and newsies started pouring out. Specs stood up and helped Rachel up as well.
"Come on, let's go home." A pit formed in Rachel's stomach. *Home? The Lodging House isn't my home. I want to go HOME home.* She took Specs hand and walked alongside him back to the lodging house.
