⭐️ •• "time is slowly tracing his face, but strangely he feels at home in this place." •• ⭐️ In 1894, the only thing on Elizabeth Bownett's mind was getting home. Snow covered streets were her enemy, she could barely see as the snow pelted her numb skin. Get home, was all she could think. Elizabeth had stayed out late, again, to sell the last few papers she had. It was blur, it went by fast. The cold of the snow, the way she looked at the stars like she was pleading for help. Make it stop. She walked through Manhattan. Get home. Don't tell them. Forget about it. Forget about everything that happened. No one can know. (No characters belong to me, except for Elizabeth! This is a fanfic, for some of you that requested it, based off of the Newsies! Broadway Musical) Started: August 2nd, 2016 Finished: April 3rd, 2021Complete
FAMILIAR | Spot Conlon
"𝚈𝚘𝚞 𝚕𝚘𝚘𝚔~" "𝙲𝚘𝚖𝚎 𝚘𝚗 𝚂𝚙𝚘𝚝, 𝚗𝚘𝚠" "𝚈𝚎𝚊𝚑 𝙲𝚊𝚖 𝚠𝚎 𝚜𝚑𝚘𝚞𝚕𝚍 𝚙𝚛𝚘𝚋𝚊𝚋𝚕𝚢 𝚋𝚎 𝚐𝚘𝚒𝚗𝚐" "𝚏𝚊𝚖𝚒𝚕𝚒𝚊𝚛" My name is Alyssa Menken. But I've gone by Camryn ever since I ran away and became a newsie. But when something happened that I never thought would my whole life is turned upside down. Btw this story isn't like a fall in love by 2 chapters story. If you wait it out it'll definitely be worth it though. Or at least I think so. Spot Conlon x Female OC Newsies 1992 movieComplete
Newsies Jack Kelly x OC (Alyssa Stoll Doesn't Do Love)
This is a Jack Kelly x Girl Newsie story I wrote this story because I couldn't find the Jack Kelly fanfic I wanted. Also I feel like there aren't enough books where the guy is trying to get the girl rather than the other way around. We stan an independent queen. Jack Kelly has had a crush on Alyssa Stoll since he first saw her in the alley when she was 7 years old. The only problem is Alyssa is too tough for boys; she insists that she doesn't do love. Will Alyssa ever get over her stubbornness and give Jack a chance? And will Jack ever have the guts to tell Alyssa how he feels? Please give this fanfic a shot; I'm working on it really hard and am so proud of it :)Complete

|| Side-By-Side || A Sprace Love Story
Racetrack Higgins, a Manhattan Newsie. Spot Conlon's best friend and crush, not that they would admit that they have crushes on each other. No one knows about Racetrack's past, and not many people bothered to ask, until he started babying scars. He refused to tell them, but when Spot, then Race himself, gets kidnapped one day, how will they find and save Race and Spot? He'd be forced to tell them his past.

In Between 'Hattan and Brooklyn || A Sprace Story
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.)

Jack Kelly x Reader
A bet, a scheme, and a wonderful love story. One day Race makes a bet with Albert on who Jack likes, and (y/n) reluctantly follows along with his scheme to make him fall in love with her. Will they ever be able to be together, or will (y/n)'s guilt about following along with the scheme ruining their blossoming love? -REVIEWS- "This book was amazing holy sh!t. This captured the friend group but in a modern setting. I will read this again probably (definitely)" -jackkellyshorse "Jack Kelly x Reader is an excellent story in which you can tell the author took their time. The story is a good length and contains a bold story line that will draw you in. Unlike the other stories, the grammar for this book is immaculate. You can tell the author isn't an 11 year old sitting at their school laptop typing this in 1st period. Newsies may not be my favorite story but this fan fiction sure inched it a lot closer to being it." -Reeeellll "wattpad is literally my life since i don't have one. so ive read all the newsies fics so naturally im a harsh critic. this book is amazing. i love it." -arxzie "Oh my god this was so good. You rarely come across an amazing, finished book on Wattpad but that's what this was." -saffire3001Complete
