A Delancey Sister || Newsies Fanfic (Remaking)

Chapter 17 - Another Problem

Amelia POV

The next day was pretty normal, apart from the fact that Race would kiss me sometimes and leave me red as heck, and other Newsies would laugh at us.

I was lost in thought when Blink noticed that I was being quieter than usual.

"Amelia, ya okay? Ya seem quiet" he said. Today was my first day selling without Race. It was just Blink, Boots, and I.

"Oh my gosh!" I say, Blink and Boots look at me confused, "The headline was fake, like it wasn't actually a headline, someone just wrote it there for Race!"

Blink and Boots burst out laughing, "Oh my gosh, Amelia, ya are so oblivious." Boots says.

"We haves ta tell da others, dis is funny" Blink says, both of them still laughing.

I cross my arms, "I'm not THAT oblivious."

"Yes, ya are" Boots says.

"I will hit you with my crutch" I warn.

"Blink! Help me!" Boots screams and runs behind Blink.

"Yer a child" Blink says.

"Let's head back now" I say, and we start walking back to Newsie Square.

When I see Race, I run up to him, to the best of my ability, you know, crutches, and I kiss him on the cheek. This time he turns red and freezes in shock.

Finch, Elmer, Albert, Mush, Henry, and Smokes, who were talking with him, start laughing along with me, Blink, and Boots.

"Hey Smokes, what brings you to Manhattan?" I ask him.

"Nothin' much, just visitin' my favorite Newsie friends" he says and we both smile.

"Well, I better get inside, I promised Specs that I would let him check my cuts, bruises, and foot" I say and go inside.

Blink POV

"Okay, why are ya actually heya?" I say.

"Fine, I was tellin' dem dat Ace was captured by Jets, da Harlem Ace, 'nd Jax 'nd brought to da refuge. We needs 'Hatten Newsies' help bustin' him out" Smokes admits.

"Danks for not sayin' dat in front of Amelia, she wouldn't of been able ta handle it" Boots says.

""Dey're plannin' somefing. I just knows it" Finch says.

"I'm comin' wif ya and Amelia fer sellin' papes now, kay Blink, Boots?" Race says.

"Dats probably a good idea" Mush says.

"Well, let's go insoide, and Smokes, ya should head home. Keep us updated 'nd if ya needs help, we'll help" Albert says.

"Okay, see ya" Smokes says and he runs off.

"Let's go insoide" I say and we all go inside.
