Authors note: heres the next chapter. yep it was skittery. and teh others stayed with him cause they thought that was a one time thing and they felt bad for him so you don't think i do I honestly do not own newsies just my own characters.
I looked up to see Skittery grinning with Spot and Lucky behind him laughing. I shook my head and then began kicking my legs and going under like I was drowning. Their looks went from amusement to fright as i pretended to drown. Then when I heard them jump in the water I swam to the ladder and climbed up.
"Patience!" I heard them screaming for me searching through the water. As soon as I felt that they were looking long enough I cleared my throat to let them know that I was right above them.
"Ha, that will teach you all to mess with the champion." I grinned as they all came ou tof the water soaking wet. There was a look on their faces that told me it was far from over. And it proved to be true when I was suddenly thrown over Skitterys shoulder. The boys were laughing maniacally as they ran towards the lodging house. As soon as we got here I was thrown into a tub of freezing cold water. "This isn't funny guys it's freezing." I said shivering."How bout one of you come help me out." I smiled sweetly holding my hand out to thme but none of them were coming to help me.
"What do you'se honestly tink dat we'se was boin yestahday?" Spot grinned at me.
"Yeah, we'se know exaclt what you'se are planning." Skittery said nodding and together they left the room laughing. I was going to get my payback and they wouldn't know how or when but I would have my revenge. I grinned to myself slowly getting out of the tub, I would get Skittery first then Lucky then Spot. I decided to save Spot for last because part of me thought he was the brains behind their whole operation. I went to the room and pulled out some of Spots clothes then quickly changed and walked downstairs to see a bunch of newsies playing poker, many of them had half dressed girls on their laps.
"Hey anyone want to lose their money to a girl?" I yelled out trying to get into a game of poker. Spot looked up from his place curiously.
"I'se know you'se ain't got money so what happens when you'se lose ta me?" He questioned grinning.
"Well first off I will never lose to you or to anyone for that matter, second your clothes are very comfortable and third if for some reason I do lose then whatever you say I will do. And I mean whatever no matter how out of the ordinary it is." I replied grinning, Every newsie in the room gathered around Spots table the only people bold enough to play was Spot Lucky and myself. I glanced around the room and didn't see Skittery, he was probably upstairs reading or something I mean Lucky did say that he liked to keep to himself.
"Ok here's da wager, if you'se win you'se get our hard oined money but if we win you'se gotta bring Skittery downstairs and kiss him infront of all the newsies with everything you'se got." Spot declared grinning. He had a look on his face like he knew he was going to win. I guess he thought that I was just a naive girl trying to play with the big boys little did he know I had been playing poker for over ten years. My dad had started teaching me on my fifth birthday so i knew all the tricks in the book. But the only thing I was not prepared for was losing. We all placed our bets I sat grinning at the four queens in my hand. I honestly thought that I had them beat. Spot put his hand down and he held two kings and two jacks. But then Lucky laid down his four aces grinning. I shook my head grinning then got up and ran upstairs. I told Skittery that there was trouble downstairs and he needed to get there quickly. As soon as we got down the stairs I jumped in his arms and kissed him like it was the end of the world then I smirked at him Lucky and Spot and walked off. I had to look back just to see their faces and when I did they all still had their mouths opened in shock. I grinned and ran up the stairs to plot my revenge. My sweet sweet revenge that they would never ever forget. But I had to make it something so good they couldn't think of anything better to get back at me with. This had to be the prank to end all pranks and I knew exactly what it was going to be.
