--Also: I do not own newsies. DISNEY owns newsies. All characters that you don't recognize belong to me though, which I think is only Crystal so far. Also, if you claim this is 'your' story plot, I'm sorry. This is 'probably' a really popular plot but I have never read any like this so far.
Chapter 3
The next couple of weeks passed by and Crystal really started to fit in with the newsies. She was sellin' like crazy and always had extra money to spend. Blink and her also got really close. Jack was still one of her dearest friends, but Crystal felt something more with Blink.
Jack also had a thing for Crystal, actually, he always had, from day one. He didn't really like her always hanging out with Blink, he missed the old days when she spent most of her time sellin' papes and being with him. Jack knew that Kid liked her and sometimes he would get jealous of Blink. He knew that Blink didn't really know about him liking Crystal, so it's not really his fault. But sometimes Jack couldn't help himself from getting a little jealous.
It was now Mush's sixteenth birthday, and all the newsies had celebrated it at Tibby's. After they ate, Blink and Crystal stepped outside.
"Listen, eh, Crystal," Blink said nervously. "Eh, I don't really know how to say this, but, um.." he paused for a moment.
"Yes?" Crystal asked patiently.
"Um, well, yeh see, I likes ya a lot. In facts, I'se lilkes ya, eh, more den a friend. Crystal, um, would ya be my goil?" he asked. Blink then braced himself for a rejection.
Crystal looked at his serious, concerned face and burst out into laughter. "Of course I will, silly! What did you think I was gonna say no?" Then she kissed him on the cheek. "Do you think we should go in now and tell the others?"
"Yeah, let's go." Then Blink stopped her as she was going inside and gave her a long, intimate kiss. When the couple finished, Crystal gazed into Blinks... eye and was speechless. The only thing she could say was, "Wow," and then she tenderly kissed him again. Then the couple left hand-in-hand.
Notes: Hrm... I wonder what's going to happen next! Keep reading! I'll update soon:) Sorry for the outrageously short chapter.. its all I have right now!
