- Chapter 28 - "I've Never Been so Grateful and Annoyed to See Brooklyn in my Life." -
Warnings: Not many? Idk lol
Third Person POV
Race stood with Bill and Darcy, watching as Katherine, Jack, and Davey sung.
Race had to admit, Jack had a naturally dramatic face when singing.
He could be a good actor.
Jack: There's change coming once and for all
Race takes a deep breath to calm the mix of anxiety, excitement, and determination flowing through his bones.
There was a chance for them to win this.
Jack: You makes the front page and man, you is major news
Race, Darcy, and Bill share smirks when Davey grabs Jack's hand, lacing their fingers as they sung together.
Jack, Davey: Tomorrow they'll see what we are
And Katherine joined them.
Race could feel the major third wheel vibes radiating off of her.
Jack, Davey, Katherine: And sure as a star, we ain't come this far...
To lose
Race looked up when he heard Newsies run in.
His face lit up when he saw Manhattan Newsies.
Multiple of them (Albert, Finch, Knobs, Buttons, Elmer, etc.) smiled or smirked at him when they made eye contact.
"Here they come!" Race shouts, holding back a grin.
This is the story we needed to write
Race walks over to Albert.
As we kept out of sight, but no more
"You have one of my cigars with you?" Race asks Albert. "Mine exploded." He mutters, slightly annoyed.
Albert chuckles, pulling a cigar out of his pocket and handing it to Race.
In a few hours by dawns early light
Race smacks Albert over the head with his hat.
We'll be ready to fight us a war
"Ow..." said redheaded boy pouts as he holds the back of his head. "You were gonna do that either way, weren't you?" He asks Race.
Race sticks his cigar into his mouth, looking at his best friend. "Not if you hadn't been stealing my stuff again." He had a slight tone of scolding in his voice.
This time we're in it to stay
Albert rolls his eyes, grumbling curses.
Talk about seizing the day
Everyone looked to Jack when he got their attention.
Jack: Write it in ink or in blood
It's the same either way
Albert and Race share looks, them nodding at each other.
