NadaZimri: that's ok that you didn't review chappie 7, well..you did now...but...um...yeah. Its all good now! I was so happy 2 read ur next chappie but now you need to hurry up and update again!
Queen Kez the Wicked: ok, yes, you're right, he does spell it Layla, but I like the spelling Leila a lot better. Sorry about the punctuation errors! I will try and do better in the future, but I just have a lot 2 type and I want it 2 get done fast and I m not that fast or accurate of a typer so a lot of things are messed up. I know my fic is kinda boring, and a lot like others but I m just not that creative to think up a really good plot or use really good words and stuff. I will have fun writing this!

Chapter 9
The party was finally wrapping up around midnight, I had had a wonderful time making Jack infuriated by throwing myself at (and all over) Spot. It had started out as a simple plan to get Jack jealous, I could see that was clearly working (well, at least it was making him mad) but, the problem was, I was enjoying being with Spot.
Now, I should probably say that not only was this change a shock for Jack but for everyone else. I had been a newsie since I was little and for as long as I could remember Spot had been a newsie too. He was originally in Manhattan, but when both he and Jack seemed to be destined for leaderhood he decided to lead Brooklyn so they wouldn't fight. During Spot's time at Manhattan he and I fought like cats and dogs. We were always pulling pranks on each other, and calling each other names, and just being kinda mean. Now, you may think because of the recent events that you have witnessed that we bugged each other because we like each other but, that is far from it. Well, I can at least say that I was never attracted to him. He just bugged the crap out of me. Everyone was shocked to see me, Leila, one of the few girl newsies in the whole of New York and just about as rough and tumble as they come, wearing a skanky (sp?) dress and sitting on Spot Conlon's lap. This sudden turn of events made everyone who walked by stare, especially when I kissed him. I rather liked that shock factor. Don't think for a minute that newsie in that room was used to seeing me with guys, because they weren't. I hardly ever dated and now to be with Spot, who I had sworn I hated for years, that was blow to their common sense. Anyways, back to what was happening at the moment...
Everyone was almost gone, heading back to their respective lodging houses, A few stranglers were still inside, they included me, Spot, Jack, and a few of the Manhattan and Brooklyn newsies who were either wating for their leader or talking to Medda.
"And would the lady like an escort home?" Spot asked casually.
I opened my mouth and was about to speak when a deep voice came from behind me, "That's alright Spot. I'll make sure she gets back ta da lodging house just fine." I rolled my eyes and turned around to find Jack standing there looking intently at Spot.
"Ya knows, Cowboy, I really hates it when people answah for me. I don't need you ta be my fadda, I cant ake care of meself. Let's go Spot." With that I turned sharply, gabbed Spot's arm and pulled him along out of the theatre.
"Wow! That was cool. Ya knows, ya look really cute when you gets angry." He smiled at me and my cheeks flushed. "And even cuteah when ya turn pink." The color in my cheeks deepened and I pushed my face into his shoulder to hide it. He chuckled and wrapped his arm around my shoulder as we started walking. "Come on, I wants ta show ya something."
"Spot, I'm tired. What is it?" I whined.
"I can't tell ya, it's a surprise-come on. Please?" He pouted like a two year old.
"Oh, you're just too cute." Without even thinking I gave him a quick peck on his pouty lips. "Ok, fine." Suddenly a blindfold shielded my eyes. "Spot! What are you doing?"
"I can't have ya telling anyone where it is. Now can I?"
"Whatevah Conlon," I said with a laugh.
"Now, come on, I'll lead you there and I promise I won't run you into anything."
"Okay." I clung to him like a starfish to a rock. At first my steps were very cautious, but as we walked farther I began to relax. After a while we stopped suddenly.
"Wait, stop. Hold on." He let go of my arm for just a second and what sounded like unlocked a door. It creaked open and he led me in.
All of a sudden he wasn't there anymore. "Spot? Where are you Spot?" I flailed my arms around searching for him in the empty air. "Spot! Come on! This isn't funny! Spot! Spot Conlon you some back here right now!"
"Just relax dollface." His voice was distant, like he was on the other side a huge cave. "I'll be back there in just a minute."
Dun dun dun. Where are they now! I guess you'll just have to read the next chapter to find out! Hahaha! I know what happens! But you don't! hahaha cackles evily, evil English teacher form school walks in
Mrs. B: Cad, stop it. You just cant do it right.
I know. Sorry Mrs.B, I tried.
Mrs. B: Its ok Cad, you're already evil enough without the laugh.
Yay! Yay! does happy dance, then stops suddenly did anyone notice that I do a lot of happy dances? May not you peeps, but I think I do, in my reviews to, I do a happy dance. That's scary. Oh well, happy dances are cool! Everyone review and also check out my other story that also needs to be updated and hopefully will be soon.
