Nickels (Spot Conlon x reader) {Completed}

Headcanons for a Spot Conlon x preformer!reader

This was requested by someone on my Tumblr, and I think from now on if someone requests something on Spot Conlon, I'll just put it here :) Hope you enjoy!

-You were the protegee of Miss. Medda Larkin herself

-And, as we all know, the newsies all love her

-About a month after the strike, the newsies decided to get together and celebrate. Of course, Medda let them use her theater

-Medda encouraged you to be the first act, even though you blatantly disagreed

-But, she practically forced you out on stage

-Before your act, you peeked out from the curtain, and couldn't believe your eyes. There were so many newsies!

-At the front tables sat the famous Jack Kelly and his all of his Manhattan newsies and at the adjourning tables sat newsies from Brooklyn, the Bronx, Queens, Richmond, and so many more!

-You started to hyperventilate, but Medda pushed you on stage and signaled for the curtain to rise

-Oh boy.

-The curtain rose and the performer side of you took over

-Singing one of Medda's most famous songs, you danced around the stage, flirting with some of the newsies in the audience

-At the end of the song, you lifted your arms above your head, tucking your head down

-The place went wild

-Not only had they gotten to see someone preform (and get a couple of drinks out of it), but they had seen an eligible young woman, their age, preform

-And Spot Conlon was pretty sure he was in love.

-The minute you had come out onstage, he thought that you were the most beautiful thing ever to walk the Earth

-While on the streets of Brooklyn, he had seen a lot of pretty girls- even flirted and kissed some of them- but he realized than none compared to you

-He knew that he had to talk to you

-Unbeknownst to him, however, a lot of the other newsies had the same idea

-After the show, he practically had to push through two dozen newsies just to talk to you

-You were hovering next to Medda, smiling nervously as she talked to Jack. You weren't really used to people flirting with you, so you just smiled, blushed, and said 'thank you' over and over again, trying to silently tell Medda that you were out of your comfort zone

-Obviously, being the queen that Medda is, she noticed that. She just didn't do anything about it

-You were very close friends with Jack Kelly- you two had met through Medda- so when he started talking to you, you did grow more comfortable

-"'Ey, uh, Jackie boy." Spot pushed himself to the front of the small crowd, "Do ya wanna introduce me ta your friend?"

-Jack rolled his eyes, used to Spot's flirting. But who was he going to say no to the King of Brooklyn?

-"Y/n/n, dis is Spot Conlon. The King of Brooklyn." You noticed a hint of sarcasm within those words, "Spot, dis is Y/n."

-Spot took off his hat and kissed your knuckles, "I don't tink I've 'ad da pleasure of meetin' such a beautiful goil such as yourself."

-Boy, were you a blushing mess

-And Spot was eating it all up

-The newsies around you had quieted, knowing that when Spot claims a girl, it's a big deal
