Last chapter! Sorry if the ending is cheesy. I'm no good at writing endings. Thanks to all those who stayed with this story!
Chapter Ten
Six months later
They were all happy again. Jack was happy that Emmy and Levi were back home. Emmy was glad that Levi was safe (and herself). Levi had only felt joy, because Emmy wasn't in danger of taking his spot when they got abused by Snyder. Race was happy that Jack was less protective and paranoid. Crutchie was glad everyone else was also happy. Specs was cheerful with the fact that Albert wasn't going to steal his glasses anymore. Henry was merry, because it was the only emotion everyone was feeling. Romeo had found a girl for a date, so of course he was thrilled. And everyone was just glad that Snyder was gone.
Emmy and Levi were waiting (rather impatiently) outside of The Sun building. Jack was at a job interview with Pulitzer. The twins were squeezing each other's hands so tightly, they were turning blue. But neither of them cared. There was only one thing, both thought. Please let Papa get this job.
Jack came out of the building with a wide grin on his face. Both kids looked up, eager to hear the news.
"Did you get the job, Papa?" Emmy asked first.
"I got 'da job, all right!" Jack exclaimed.
To save Levi the walk over to him, Jack ran to the twins and embraced them. After a minor celebration, the three started walking home. They were excited to tell the other newsies.
It was going to turn out just fine.
