THE NEXT MORNING
I groaned as someone yanked my blanket from me.

"5 more minutes.."

"Cmon sleeping beauty. Today's the day for the rally at Medas!"

My eyes shot open. Shit. The rally. I told Medda that I'd help her.

I sprang outta bed and to my bathroom. I got ready, made myself look nice than usual but still a boy, and rushed down to Tibby's. Most of the newsies were already in there including Brooklyn.

I was rushing to quickly get brunch before heading to Medda's when I ran into someone. I tripped, but someone grabbed my waist.

"Mush!"

"Heya princess" he whispered

I quickly regained my composure and tried to hide my blush. Mush as well as a few others have flirted with me ever since I got here, but Race, like the true best friend/brother he is, had told them I was off limits other wise he'd give ya a few shiners. As I said bye to Mush, I felt a tension in the back of my head, as if someone was staring. I turn around to find none other than Spot. My eyes got wide for a second, but then I remembered who dominated last night. I smirked and sent him a wink before sauntering off to order food. As I passed him I heard a few of the boys mocking him.

"Damn spot whose the lucky lady?"

"Couldn't even keep her til morning could ya"

"Damn she worked you good"

I chuckled as his face got red. After, I quickly made my way to Medda.

Spot POV
I heard someone scream and call Mushes name. My attention was caught when I saw Kris. Mush has gripped her at her waist and made her blush. I felt a slight ping of anger. Why would I feel angry? I had no reason to be jealous.

As I was staring someone grabbed my shoulder. Race? "Don't worry bud. It's called being salty" and just like that he walked off. I was shocked for a second, but when I looked at her she was also looked. Correction she SMIRKED! The audacity! That's my signature thing!

I watched as she passed by sending a wink. I was snapped out of my thoughts my my boys teasing me about the hickies. My fave heated up as I saw Kris looking.

I'm so getting pay back.

BACK AT MEDDA'S
Kris POV
Turns out Medda wanted me to also perform. This was the perfect chance to show Brooklyn ise a girl. The theater was only gonna be newsies anyways so it would be the perfect opportunity. As I was in the dressing room about to pick out my outfit someone had knocked at the door.

I opened it expecting to see Medda, but instead I was greeted by lips on mine. I open my eyes to see it was spot. I rolled my eyes and locked the door.

"Needy are we? Come back for more?" I taunted

"More like payback"

He grabbed my waist and pushed me against the wall. "My turn" he said huskily. His hands roamed my body as mine found its way to the nape, slightly tugging at his hair. He pressed his lips at the base of my neck and made his way up, leaving a trail of love bites. He eventually got to behind my ear and whispered "consider yourself distracted". And then he left.

I pulled myself together, got dressed and looked in the mirror. "Fuck you, Conlon" I muttered as I tried to cover the deep purple marks on my neck. I finished my makeup and hair and went down to the stage. The rally had already begun, Spot and Jack agreed with one another and Medda was finishing her last song.

"I got one last surprise for you boys! Introducing my beloved Kris Green!"
(Your cover last name was Green)

I stepped out onto the stage in my short and somewhat tight black dress with my hair down. I haven't been this girly and dolled up in ages.

A wave of confused murmurs broke out. I took the microphone and introduced myself again.

"Sup boys! Sorry for keeping this from ya this long. The 'Hattan newsies already know, but ise a girl!"

People still gave me a confused look. So I decided to show them. I tuck my hair in to my newsies hat and looked up. A bunch of "ohs" and "wow" came from the crowd.

"I was in hiding, so I became a newsies and sold as a boy. Now to celebrate the strike, Isa about to sing for ya!"

Whoops and hollers erupted from the crowd. I started to sing a bunch of random love songs which drove them crazy, but I couldn't help but notice one person staring with their jaw dropped..
