The next night, Race, Mush, Jack, Specs, Blink, Skittery, and Storm were all gambling when she came up with an idea. “This is a game that my bother played. Instead of gambling money, we each choose either truth or dare. At the end of each round, the losers have to do either one they chose.” She explained. They began to play. It took a long time for someone to win, but in the end, Jack won. Everyone went around and did what they were supposed to do, and then it came around to her. Mush asked her a question, since she had chosen truth. “Do you like any of the newsies, and if so, who is it?” She blushed, a red stain creeping up her neck. They all whooped and Specs came up right in her face and said, “Who-oooo?” She blushed even harder.
She turned around and looked at Racetrack. “Pista, ti ho amato da subito, sei stato cosi gentile con me, non lasciarmi, inamorato, il mio amore.” They all followed her eyes to Racetrack who said, “Ti amo anch’io tempest, lo non ti lascero, il mio amore, non ti preoccupare, lo non ti lascero.” She started crying, thick tears rolling down her face. She wrapped her arms around him and hugged him tightly. “Thank you for understanding me Race, don’t tell anybody.” They all looked at them and Skittery asked, “Who is it?!” She just smiled at them and went up on the roof. He followed her and they ended up sitting silently, not even talking, just looking at the stars, enjoying knowing the truth that the others had no clue about. When they finally went to sleep, she slept in her bunk right above him and whispered as she fell asleep, “ti amo molto, pista.’ He smiled in the darkness.
