Davey

A couple of weeks have passed, and I'm really starting to enjoy it here. I never thought I would make good friends this quickly. I feel like I've known the Newsies my whole life. Even Spot Conlon is warming up to me.

I've also learned quite a few new things about Jack. He and Crutchie were adopted by Ms. Medda, who is the most lovely lady in the world. He likes to paint and draw, and he's really good at it. He's the quarterback on the football team. And he loves playing pranks on people.

Something that I learned about the Newsies was that they were the most popular jokers in school. A lot of people knew them for some big pranks that they pulled. Spot Conlon was mostly known for his hard exterior and overall scary factor though. Overall the Newsies were the most well known group in school.

It makes me wonder how nerdy little Davey Jacobs go into their group. They seemed to accept me immediately which is awesome. I barley had time to hang out though. I was taking several AP classes which meant I had a lot of studying to do. However this Friday I would finally be free to go do something.

"Hey Davey?" Jack asks. "Are you going to come to the game tonight?" The Newsies are all sitting around the normal lunch table eating, playing cards, talking, studying, etc. Me and Jack are standing at a nearby tree.

"I am actually. I already did all my homework." He smiles widely. He steps closer and hugs me while picking me up.

"That's great Davey!" He's says while twirling me around.

When he puts me down I am slightly flushed. I mutter a flustered "yeah". When I turn back to the table, I see all the Newsies staring at us. Jack notices too.

"What?" He asks. "You've never seen someone excited before?" He looks at the Newsies questionably. "Go back to what you were doing."

The Newsies murmur different apologies. I don't miss the wink that Race throws my way. I flip him off in reply, which just makes him laugh.

I may have a slight crush on Jack. I mean look at him. He's tall, he's athletic, he's hot, he's funny, he's nice, he's just my type. How could I not have a crush on him. My bisexual heart is quaking.

I turn to him. "Is it okay if my siblings come? They've been wanting to meet everyone for a while."

"Of course." He smiles. "The more the merrier!"

The bell rings.

He throws his arm across my shoulders. "Let me walk you to your next class Davey."

"Jack your class is on the other side of the school."

"Eh that don't matter."

I blush and smile slightly to myself. Yeah, this is a good day.

Sarah, Les and I are sittings in Sarah's car driving to the football game. We're Jamming out to the radio. Les is drinking a monster energy (Ultra Red) and texting Sally of course.

"So." Sarah turns the radio down. "Do you have a crush on this Jack fellow?"

I spit out the Dr.Pepper I was in the middle of drinking. "What? No? Maybe? I don't know."

We finally arrive at the school. "Well I hope to meet him tonight." She says with a wink. I can tell her and Race are going to get along.
