"I never forgot you." 

"Neither did I."

Friend. 

Many people spend their entire lives searching for that. 

A friend. 

Someone to share their life to, to tell every secret, every lie, every blessing, every curse. 

To have a friend, is one of the greatest gifts of the world. 

One that once upon a time, Racetrack Higgins had that. 

Once upon a time, Anastasia Redwood had that too. 

Until, one day changed it all. 

The word, once so understood, so familiar became foreign, and forgotten until...

The Newsboy Strike of 1899...

Welcome, to LOQ, take two. Filled to the brim with angst, adventure, and love.

Oscar's father and mother were killed when he was little, and Wiesel was given custody over him and Morris.

He's been to the Refuge twice, and lives with the Manhattan Newsies, as Jack's second in command. What happens when Oscar falls for the Italian speaking Newsie? What happens when Race falls for one of his sworn enemies? What will their friends/family's reactions be? What will happen? Will they be happy and live together? Or will their relationship crumble?

I'll Always Look Out For You by VaquitaLibra

15 years before the legendary newsies strike of 1899, a child was born. When he is 18 months old, he is brought to the Manhattan Newsies Lodging House. In time, he would be known as Racetrack Higgins. This is his story. This is the story of the newsies strike of 1899...but not as you know it. With twists and turns and new angles in every direction, you'll learn many new things about Racetrack, and his newsie family who watches him grow and develop in his own unique way. All rights to Newsies belong to Disney. All the photos (except one) for the cover come from newsiesfreak.com. None of these characters are mine. Only the story and few original characters alone are mine. Please, no homophobia, transphobia, slurs, profanities, hate, etc in the comment section at any time.

Seizing The Day//A Modern Day Newsies Story//COMPLETED by seaturtle00

PLEASE READ "Carrying The Banner//A Modern Day Newsies Story//COMPLETED" FIRST! You do not have to but it would help a lot. Finally, the strike is over. Life can go back to normal now, right!? Apparently not. Now there is another problem on the gang's hands, one that hits much closer to home. I DO NOT OWN MOST CHARACTERS IN THIS! PLEASE PLEASE TELL ME IF I AM MISSING ANY TRIGGER WARNINGS! Also this story deals VERY HEAVILY with all types of LGBTQIADP+phobia, so if you are sensitive to that I do not suggest reading this.

The Truth About The Moon (Jack Kelly x OC) by -girlinyellowdress-

🎶 Moon. A natural satellite of the Earth. Latin name: Luna. Hundreds of thousands of miles away from here, no signs of water or life or atmosphere. This is the truth about the moon. The facts are black and white, and yet I couldn't think of one while watching it tonight.🎶 "Promise we'll go to Santa Fe together, Cowboy." "I promise we'll go to Santa Fe together, Pip." In 1899, seventeen year old Philippa Blythe lost her parents and went to the Newsboys Lodging House to seek comfort from her friend, Jack Kelly, who suggests that she becomes a newsie. Jack teaches Philippa how to be a newsie, and she becomes as respected as Jack in a month. Philippa also begins to realize that she has feelings for Jack. Once two new kids become newsies and a strike begins, Jack and Philippa's friendship and Philippa's hope of having a relationship with Jack gets tested when two girls enter the picture. (I'm not the best at descriptions so read on to find out what happens. This story will also be a combination between the 1992 movie and the Broadway musical.)

The Runaway Girlsie by TheQuietHufflepuff

Adie Gray, formerly Adelaide Walsh, enlists the help of a dear friend to run away from her abusive father. While on the streets, trying to survive, she meets the newsies. Jack Kelly, realizing her talent, enlists her to work with him. Has the cowboy met his princess? Will her father catch up to her? Will they raise a torch and carry their banner? *I don't own Newsies. I only own Adie. All credit goes to Alan Menken and the creators of this awesome show. Sidenote: The version of Jack I imagine is that of Jeremy Jordan's. You're free to imagine others who have played the role of Jack Kelly.
