Newsies Short Stories

Javey- How I really feel

A/N- I watched newsies again. Jack and Katherine are barely on stage together. They do not interact with each other much. So Jack and Davey forever boys. Also just saw how some of my Jack and Davey stories are Javid and the others are Javey.

Jack realised how he really felt when he saw that disappointment on Davey's face. It was the moment Jack had just betrayed them all at the rally in Medda's theatre. When he saw Davey's face he it hurt him. It stung him. He tried calling Davey but he just left. (Can i just say when this happens in the musical Katherine is also there but he calls after Davey instead)

Jack went up to his penthouse in the sky and found Katherine going through his things and she gave the excuse the specs let her up.

"Look I ain't got no time for this. There is something ise need to do." Jack said grabbing his secret drawings of Davey.

"Wait! Before you go please tell me you feel it too." Katherine said, blushing slighlty.

"Feel what?" Jack said very quickly as he needed to get to Davey.

Katherine felt a bit taken back at this. "The sparks." She smiled. "The love sparks."

"Ya gotta be kiddin' Katherine. Ise barely know youse. Ise sorry. Most of us don't swing your way anyways." Jack said rushing off leaving Katherine there shocked.

Jack went straight to the lodging. In front of the door was Les and Race.

"Oi traitor youse ain't allowed here" Race said angrily.

"Please. Ise need to speak to Davey on the rooftop." Jack pleaded. Les could see he looked sorry.

Les looked at Race with his puppy eyes.

"5 minutes." Race said going inside to get Davey.

Davey climbed up to the roof top. He was angry. What did Jack possibly want? Davey spoke so highly of him and went and backstabbed them.

"What do you want?" Davey angrily said.

Jack didn't say anything he just handed Davey the drawings. Davey tried to hide his smile but he couldn't.

"These don't give me an explanation as nice as they are." Davey said half mad half happy.

"Ise did it for youse. Pulitzer was going to take you away from youse family and put you in the refuge. Ise couldn't have that happen." Jack said looking down.

Davey came over to him and lifted his chin up.

"Youse still betrayed us but you can make up for that. Katherine told me about an idea. She said you stole for the kids in the refuge and you have a picture of what it's like in there. We print that as well as letter to fight for the working kids." Davey said smiling.

"We have one problem, we can't print it." Jack said.

"There has to be one printing press Pulitzer doesn't know about." Davey said.

"Oh no." Jack smiled slightly. "In the basement. There's one there. Hopefully Katherine will still be on our side and can get us in"

"Why wouldn't she be on our side?" Davey asked.

"She thought there was something romantic between me and her. Ise rejected her." Jack said.

"There isn't?" Davey asked to which Jack shook his head. Davey smiled slightly. "All the boys thought you were head over heels for someone. We assumed it was her."

"Ise is head over heels for someone. But it's not her. It's youse" Jack said nervously. Davey smiled and kissed him.

They both smiled and then laughed.

"Come on we've got a job to do" Davey smiled.
