The three girls met up with Memo, Wings, and Stone, other newsies, and headed for Tibby's for lunch. They joked and laughed the whole way there, so basically just having fun. When they reached Tibby's, they saw the boys, talking, laughing, joking around, etc. It seemed like they had had some success in the strike.
The girls took a seat in a booth near the window, each of them quickly ordering some lunch. As they waited, some of the guys joined them. They were Mush, Racetrack, Blink, Jack, and Spot.
Danielle smiled when she saw Spot. She hadn't seen him at all so far, and she had started to think that maybe she wouldn't at all. However, she did see him, and she lit up right away.
Amanda watched, amused, as Danielle perked up once Spot sat down. Amanda liked him too, and she was glad to see him too, but she figured she'd let Danielle have him this time. So, she scooted over and made room for Mush.
Renee rolled her eyes playfully as Blink sat next to her and slung his arm over her shoulder. Although she delayed the action, she did eventually push his arm away. She laughed when he pretended to look hurt.
"So, ya goils have any luck with jobs?" Wings asked, sipping some of the coke that had just been set in front of them. All three nodded.
"I got a child watching job tomorrow," Amanda said, sipping her own coke as Mush smiled at her.
Danielle nodded, and tugged at her hair. It came loose this time, and she sighed. Resting a moment, she raised her arms and began to fix her hair back up into the folded ponytail it had been in.
Renee nodded too, and muttered "cleaning." Blink looked at her.
"Cleaning? Really? Well then, wanna come clean the lodgin' house?" he teased, poking her in her arm. She rolled her eyes and threw a napkin on him.
"Clean it yourself," she said, trying to hide her smile to no avail. He poked her repeatedly until she poked him back. He then stopped.
Spot looked around at the girls. He'd seen Wings, Stone, and Memo before, but never had he seen the other three. "Not to sound rude, but who's are dese goils?" he asked, pointing his fingers at Danielle, Amanda, and Renee.
Memo smiled and faced him. "Spot, these are the new girls 'round here. This is Sprinter," she said, pointing to Amanda, "this is Sun," she said, in turn pointing to Renee, "and this is Twig," she finished, lastly pointing to Danielle.
His eyes averted to Danielle, and he smiled. "Why'd dey name ya Twig?" he asked, although he already felt he knew the answer.
Danielle blushed slightly as she answered him. "Shadow said it was because I'm so thin," she said, suddenly becoming interested in the cup of coke in front of her.
Everyone laughed, and Spot nodded. That's what he had figured, but he wanted to hear it from her. "Interestin'," he muttered.
Right then, the girls' food arrived, and Denton walked into the restaurant. He held up a paper, and the guys instantly became interested in that. They left the girls' booth and walked to where he had set the paper.
"So, you got us on the front page," David eventually said.
"You got yourselves on the front page," Denton replied.
The girls watched the whole scene unfold, interest filling their eyes. Wings, Stone, and Memo all laughed when Blink mentioned about a Saturday night with the mayor's daughter.
"What's so funny?" Renee and Amanda asked at the same time.
Wings and Stone couldn't fight back their laughter, so Memo cleared her throat. "He's kinda been after the mayor's daughter for a while. He acts so weird sometimes when she's the topic we talk about."
"Oh," Renee said, trying not to seem like she was upset. Amanda shook her head and laughed. She then placed an arm around Renee's shoulders.
"Yes, but do you know if he's said anything about our friend here?" she asked, making a hand movement in front of Renee. Renee slapped it away.
Wings studied her a moment, her glass of coke in her hands. "Yeah, I think he did."
"I think he mentioned that the mayor's daughter could wait," Stone said, her tone of voice delivering a serious message.
Renee began to blush. She couldn't help it if she liked Blink; it was inevitable for her.
The girls eventually moved further into the booth to keep from getting hit by the now dancing boys. It was also because Danielle had already been knicked in the side. So, talking, and occasionally watching the boys, the girls waited until they were done.
As they boys made the toast, they resumed their seats. Kid looked over at the girls. He sat inbetween Danielle and Wings, holding his coke out to them all before drinking more of it. "So, ya goils comin' to da rally?" he asked, his eyes flickering from one girl to the other.
"Uh, sure?" Memo replied, setting her glass down.
He laughed. "What about you three?" he asked, pointing a finger at Amanda, who happened to be across from him.
She smiled. "As far as we know, we'll be there," she replied, laughing at his odd reactions.
He nodded, sipping the last of his drink. As he did, he watched Renee cautiously. She was smiling, and had a pinkish tint to her cheeks. She had been blushing. He wondered what about.
