14 year old Esther has a dark past. All her life she's been running from it. When she was ten, she ran away from her orphanage and has been living on the streets ever since. She's trying to find work so she can support her little brother, whose  graduation from the orphanage lingers nearer, but one day she steals an apple from the wrong person in Brooklyn, so she of course runs away to Manhattan where she secretly becomes a newsie. There she gets the family she's always dreamed of, but as her past comes closer and closer, will she finally face it and her mistakes or will she just keep running?

In Between 'Hattan and Brooklyn || A Sprace Story by Broadway_Crackers
110 parts Complete Mature
Racetrack Higgins was a normal Manhattan Newsie- more or less. He was Gay, but so were all of his brothers. He was Jack's Second in Command and had a rough past. He was stubborn, has anxiety, and is a good bit chaotic. Spot Conlon was not a normal Newsie. He was the King of Brooklyn, the Borough feared by most. Except for Race. (And a few others.) Said Italian blonde boy was actually a half Brooklyn, half Manhattan Newsie, as he sold in Brooklyn. Sure, Spot scared him sometimes, but not a lot. They were very different. Spot had brown hair, Race had dirty blonde. Race had been to the Refuge, Spot hadn't. Spot had brown eyes, Race had bright blue eyes. Race was strong, but easily outnumbered, Spot was strong, but wasn't easily outnumbered. One think they both agreed was that they cared for their boys more than anything and would do anything to keep them safe. Oh, that and that the other was cute. Or hot, depending on if you were Spot or Race. ~~ Excerpt from the Story ~~ "Hey, Race." Ace starts, picking up his cards every time Race passes one to him. Race hums, passing a card to Sling, then himself, and then Ace. "Do you have a crush on Spot?" Ace asks, still staring at his cards. Sling hides his smile with his cards in front of his face, stifling a laugh. "No." Race answers, his face reddening slightly as he passes out another card to each boy. Ace looks up at him. "BS." He responds, smirking. Race scowls at him, pulling his hat off of his head and smacking Ace with it, all while his face turns bright red. Ace and Sling laugh. ~~ ~~ (I do not own Newsies.)

46 parts Complete Mature
Evelyn was kidnapped at the age of two from her family by her very own mother. Isabella Adelaine was the mother of Evelyn and most of her brothers. She ran away from Evelyn's father when Evelyn was two. Along their journey came Chase Miller, her stepfather. He was everything a child could ever want from their father, but when he and Isabella got married, he turned into a monster that no child could ever imagine. In her first teenage year, she got raped by the monster called her stepfather. She never got to experience a normal kid's childhood, but her real family is more than ready to give her the teenage years she deserves. * One day, she starts going to the school her brothers go to. What she didn't expect was to meet someone she wished she could've forgotten. He was the only person she had ever trusted to tell about the abuse. He was the person she had a crush on. He was her childhood best friend. The day he left because of his family business was the day she became heartbroken. He was always there for her when she needed him, but then she suffered all alone. After him, she never trusted a single soul with her secret. She thought that everyone would eventually leave her. * The day Isabella and Chase didn't come back to the house was the day she had been waiting for her entire life. Chase and Isabella had been in an accident that neither of them survived, according to the police. Chase's body was never found, but the car blew up, so no one believed that Chase could've survived. ** Started: The 1st of September, 2022 Finished: The 20th of May, 2023 100K reads on 16.7.2023
