The air was cold as Lacy walked through the streets. She would have to find somewhere to spend the night because there was no way she was going back home tonight. Her sister obviously needed some time to cool off.
It was too dark to occupy herself with her sketching so she planned to keep walking until it was morning and she would head straight to the factory.
Her plan changed when she heard noises coming from an ally slightly ahead of her. They weren't suspicious noises. It sounded more like a fight. Her growing curiosity forced her to take a look. She peeked her head around the corner and saw the two newsies she had met earlier, Blink and Skittery. They had gotten themselves into a fight with two slightly older and much uglier looking men.
Lacy decided it was best not to get involved, but she found she couldn't just leave without doing anything.
While trying to decide what to do next she could see that the fight was beginning to move out into the street.
She was no fool and knew if anyone heard, they might join the fight. They could end up helping Blink and Skittery, but the other option, was not enough for her to risk it. The perfect opportunity came when the two newsies were preparing to give the uglier two a final push. Lacy stuck out her foot and tripped the older two just as Blink and Skittery pushed them. The combined force of the newsies' push and the other two's imbalance thanks to Lacy's trip, caused the older ones to fall hard on the ground, knocking themselves out.
Skittery and Blink noticed Lacy and looked at her puzzled. She looked back at them, slightly embarrassed.
Nobody moved for quite a while until one of the large lumps on the ground stirred.
"C'mon," said Skittery, "The Delancys could wake up anytime."
He grabbed Lacy's elbow and led her to an area of town she had not been to before. Blink followed close behind.
They all sat down. Still no one said anything until Skittery spoke.
"Umm, thanks."
Blink picked up the cue and added, "Yeah, we couldn'ta beat Oscar and Maurice if you hadn'ta-"
Skittery shot him a threatening look and Blink covered for his own mistake.
"Well, I mean we coulda taken 'em, but you uh, ended it sooner. Yeah."
Lacy grinned. She was very amused by these two.
"So why are ya out so late?" Skittery had been wondering since he saw her out there.
"Why are you out so late?" She countered.
Blink explained.
"Well, ya see there's this guy Spot and he's in charge of Brooklyn-"
"Brooklyn newsies that is." Skittery interjected.
"Right, so he's been really mad at the Queens newsies. See, they keep thinkin' they're better'n everyone else and tryin' to sell where they ain't supposed ta. So Spot got in this real big fight with the head of the Queens newsies and Spot's newsies scattered. I swear I never saw him so mad, see, he came to stay wit us cus he ain't got no newsies anymore. I tell ya, if I was one of his newsies and left, I wouldn't be so quick to come back. Spot's kinda small, but he fights better'n Jack!"
Blink got another look from Skittery.
"Well, he does! And so me'n Skittery knew the Delancys were friendly wit the Queens newsies and were afraid they'd start something funny, which they did."
"And that's about it." Skittery concluded.
Lacy laughed and told the boys her side of the story.
"You know you never told us your name." Said Skittery
"It's Lacy."
"So, Lacy," continued Blink, "What's yore story?"
One thing led to another and before she knew it, they had talked for several more hours and they were asleep.
When Abby woke up, she found her father had already left for work. She got ready as soon as humanly possible. She would not be late for her first day of helping her father.
She finally made it to Tibby's, where she found her father waiting for her. He wasted no time,
"You can start wiping of those tables over there."
Abby nodded and got to work. She ended up cleaning those tables for the rest of the morning; she was so determined to do a good job for her father, she made sure she didn't miss any spot, not even one.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Lacy woke up and for a minute forgot where she was. It wasn't until she saw Skittery asleep on her shoulder that he remembered. She smiled and slowly got from her feet.
She looked around the street and yawned and stretched. How long had she slept?
"Excuse me," she asked a passerby, "What time is it?"
"Why it's about 10:30."
The smile immediately left Lacy's face. She was late for work. By three hours.
"Thank you," she said hurriedly.
She turned to run toward work but she realized she had no idea how to get there from where she was.
"Skittery, Blink!"
She shook the newsies until they woke up.
"Please, you guys I need to get to work really fast, I'm so late."
"What time is it," Blink asked groggily.
"A man just said it was 10:30."
With this the two boys were immediately awake.
"Dammit, we're late too."
"But you guys," Lacy was trying to get them to understand the gravity of her situation. "I could be fired. On the spot. And that's it, no more job, no nothin'."
"Alright," said Skittery "Let's go."
The boys showed Lacy the way, but by the time they got to the factory, the workers were already on lunch break.
Lacy spotted Leah.
She started to run to her and then stopped herself, remembering last nights' argument. Oh, I'm sure she's forgotten all about that by now, Lacy figured.
"Leah!" Lacy ran to her sister.
"Lacy where the hell have you been? No, you know what; I don't even want to know," She had spotted the two newsies standing a distance away.
Lacy started to explain. "I'm sorry I just-"
"Lacy shut up and listen ok? I told the boss you're sick so you couldn't come today. He wasn't happy but he didn't fire you. So here's you new plan, get outa here before someone sees you and never miss work again!"
Lacy smiled.
"Thanks!"
"Yeah, ok, just leave!"
Lacy ran to explain to Skittery and Blink.
"Well, I guess youse can spend the day wit us then," said Blink with a smile.
"Yeah, but we gotta get to Tibby's," reminded Skittery. "We're gonna be late."
"Oh yeah."
Lacy wondered what they were talking about until they had wondered into some restaurant named Tibby's.
