Disclaimer: I do not own Newsies, Disney obviously does(*tear* Lucky
Rats!), and I don't actually own this story, my talented friend, Kristina,
does(she, too, is a lucky rat!) and I am merely doing her a favor! But, I
actually DO own Tig and Annabelle, others as well, but you have to wait for
the sequel! So, for these reasons, don't sue me!
Summary: Marie 'Target' McCoy is a loveable tomboy who lives and sells with the Manhatten Newsies. She starts to date Spot Conlon, but what happens when her heart starts to belong to another newsie that she's known for years? NOT A MARY SUE!!! Skit/Target, Mush/Tig, Jack/OC
Rating: PG-13
Fireworks burst into the clear summer sky. Blue, Green, Purple, and every other color imaginable was filling the night sky. Red, White, and Blue flags waved high in the air. Mush, Jack, and Skittery held their girls as they watched the spectacular night show. They stood along the Brooklyn Bridge, and also got word that Spot had traveled to upstate New York, so it was safe for Skittery and Target to go and watch.
People lined up along the railing of the bridge. Lily was leaning over the railing and Mush's arms were around her waist. She pressed a look of frustration on her face. She turned around and leaned her back against the barrier. She looked into Mush's soft eyes.
"So Shawn? When am I getting my gift?" she asked, putting her arms around his neck.
"When we get home," was all he said.
"Why at home?"
"You'se know," he said in acknowledgment. The thought finally clicked in Tig's mind.
"Oh, I know," she smiled and turned back around to see the fireworks.
~*FOUR MONTHS LATER*~
Tig approached Target that beautiful morning in November.
"Marie, I have some news to tell you."
"Me too!" Target said excitedly.
"On three, we say what's goin' on," she took Marie's hand.
"One...two...three."
"I'm pregnant!" they both said. Excited expressions sprung to their faces. "How long?" they asked together. "Four months, two days!" once again in unison. They both jumped up and down with joy.
"Have you told Skit?" Tig asked. Target stopped jumping up and down and a look of sadness came upon her face. "You haven't told him, why not?"
"Just ain't da right time yet. What about you'se, does Mush know?"
"He knows," Lily giggled. "Oh my God, this is so exciting..," mumbled Lily.
"Promise you'se won't tell him, okay?" asked Target in concern.
"I promise," replied a joyful Tig.
**** Sorry for the shortness, so I revised the next chapter and decided to put it up with this one. Go check it out!
JustDuck: Yeah, you probably won't like Rory for awhile, especially with the next few chapters(don't worry, she's not rude or mean or anything, it's just something that happens)! Haha, you made me laugh! Thank goodness you didn't hit the wall!
my dog ate my pennname: Yes, I wholeheartedly(sp?) agree that that chapter was funny! And, yes, please do keep an open mind with the next few chapters coming up!
