Heyo this is my first fanfiction so go easy on me. Side note this might contain topics that are heavy for some so if you aren't a fan of that I would recommend not reading this. Anyways, kick back, relax, and enjoy the show. - Noodles Jack Kelly WAS going to leave for Santa Fe. Everything was going well in the carriage ride. then, the Governor said something that has got Jack in an emotional loop. "Won't you miss your friends? the Newsies? any loved ones?" Loved ones... Someone does come to mind at that word, but it wasn't Sarah.. I do not own Newsies, I am only making fan content! Newsies is property of Disney!

I decided I would try my hand at writing the history and "future" of Jack and Crutchie, if they had ended up together, unlike the script states. **Please read the first "chapter" for my author's notes. This is based on the MUSICAL. Not the 1992 movie. (Obviously MANY characters will appear, however, it asks to only list main characters)

Have you ever met someone who you clicked with instantly? Someone who you knew you could trust from the very moment you met them? Whether it's platonic or romantic, everyone will have that person at some point in their life. That's what happens when Jack finally approaches Crutchie, a kid who he's been crushing on for months. Jack Kelly is known to be one of the school delinquents, while Crutchie (Charlie) Morris is known to be the school punching bag. More specific information will be listed in the "authors notes" aka the first part! Please read, it will have trigger warnings.

Suddenly, a person runs into David. He's taken by surprise by the impact. The two stumble back a little. That's when David sees who he ran into, someone who he never thought he would see again. Jack Kelly. His first love. It's clear that Jack hasn't forgotten him either. What if ... Jack and David knew each other before the strike? What if they were close friends? What if ... they were lovers? It's not easy for either of them. Come on, who wants to be selling newspapers with their ex? But then the prices rise, and everything changes. And now with the strike, they'll have to reevaluate everything: how they used to be, what went wrong ... and how they feel for each other now. Please, no homophobia or transphobia, profanities, slurs, hate, etc. None of these characters are mine. Rights go to Disney. Only the story idea is mine.
