~New Day~
Belle had a long day of sellin' papes. Two years of this, and she felt like it had been an eternity. But she loved being around Manhattan, and working with the boys.
She came across Tibby's finally after walking for a while. She went inside, and took of her jacket. She went over to one of the booths, and sat down. She took off her cap, and fixed her long black hair quickly, as she laid her cap down next to her at the chair.
When the waiter came over to her, she ordered a roast beef sandwich and a soda. She had made out good while selling papes today, so she decided to spend some of that money to eat with.
"Oh man what a day I've had. Well, at least now I can sit here, and relax for the day." She said to herself.

From the candy shop of Staten to the restaurant of Manhattan Spazz traveled. The ferry seemed it was taking extra long to arrive today. As He waited patiently he started to pace back and forth. The small boy carried the few papers he didn't seem to sell. "Tick Tock Tick tock." Spazz said as he looked at the boat arriving, it seemed to be going slower then usual, for some reason, but for Spazz this boy always had ants in his pants so sitting still and patients was a virtue he lacked.
"Excuse me boy..." The feeling of someone's hand on his small shoulder caused Spazz to Jump. "What da want?" He said loud turning around seeing two shinny quarters being held at him. Spazz raised his eyebrow as it was placed in his hand the little girl scampering back to her mother giggling. Spazz took the quarter in his mouth biting it for authenticity. "Bingo!" He smiled as he looked at the four papers shrugging walking to the ferry and aboding it. As it started to sail he looked at the quarters and looked at his cloths. He giggled to himself. "Was it that apparent ey?" Spazz paced back and forth till the ferry arrived in Manhattan.
As he made to the restaurant called Tibby's he smiled. A beer would be nice, but it would also be an energy booster. Quick decision as he walked in. Walking to a booth The join was filled with a bunch of hoity toties where did Spazz find comfort. He had no problem making friends as he walked to the stools ordering a short of rum, and a beer Placing some money on the counter starting a tab. Spazz took the shot and then walked the room with his beer at hand. Seeing a girl alone as he walked over to her booth. No he didn't know this girl, but he was the mini leader of Staten Island and he would get to know her. Hopefully she was nice but here goes he thought. "Bonjour, Heya I'm Spazz Can I join you?" He asked as he looked at the seat beside her as he rocked back ands forth from his heels to his tippy toes with anticipation. |

Belle jumped at the sound of a boy's voice. She looked up at him. He was kinda shorter than her, but she was was known for being friendly to everyone. Who knows who this kid might be.
She smiled at the boy in front of her "Oh sure you can join me. Spazz is your name, you say? Well, it's nice to meet you, Spazz. My name is Belinda, but the newsies out here call me 'Belle'. So, what do you do? I can tell you're a newsie, but where are you from?" she asked Spazz, flashing him a bright smile.
She moved her hands as the waiter brought her the food she had ordered "So, what brings ya ta 'Hattan anyways, Spazz?" she asked.

The young boy smile to see she was very nice indeed. "Wee! Spazz is my name I am the Mini Leadah from Staten Island." Spazz explained as he took a sip from the mug. "Belle Thats pretty, like you! I mean like your name... and all that..." Spazz's eyes skimmed the room as he forgot his train of thought and looked back to Belle.
" Anywho, Nothing brings me here but the beeyah! Ey' " Spazz pointed to the cup as he took a sip and looked into her eyes, his voice excited and hyper without a pause as the quickness flew off his lips. " Ey' I's like to make friends wanna be my friend?! I means you and me could get along I's a friendly one! Spazz smiled as he took another sip looking at Belle nodding his head assuring her he was meaning no harm just a bit hyper, but this was normal for him. [/font] |

Belle smiled at the boy, she was very impressed to hear who he was. She 'd never met anyone from Staten Island before, but there was always a first time for everything.
"The mini-leadah of Staten Island, ey? Well, laddie. You're quite a big-shot, aren't ya?" she said.
Belle smiled when she heard Spazz compliment her name and then tell her she was pretty. "I know what you mean, sweetie. But thanks for the compliment eitherway. Not used to getting called 'pretty' a while lot believe it or not. Just mainly by the boys I live with." she told Spazz.
She chuckled when Spazz asked if she wanted to be friends. Who was she to turn down a new friend? "Yeah sure, Spazz. We'se can be friends. How old are ya anyway?" she asked him with another smile in his direction.

She was certainly pretty yup yup, no doubles in his mind. "I's fourteen yeahs Young!" Spazz responded as he looked at Belle's sandwich he nodded looking at his drink then took another sip. How old are you? Ey and from here this here borough?" Spazzed asked looking at the girl.
The sound of the fork hitting Spazz jumped in his seat as he looked to the direction it came from leaning out the booth loosing balance falling on the floor as he could now see the fork. Spazz stood up looking at the eyes now on him. "Bonjour...just dropped something...?" He questioned as the people started to drift away. Spazz smile looking up at Belle innocently. [/font] |

Belle laughed at this, but she liked this kid. He was damned cute, and found herself loving his company so far. So she thought he was alright.
"Fourteen, eh? Wow, sweetie. You're a cute one. A little hyper, but 'dat;s nothin' new ta me. I live wit' guys just like ya." she said.
"I'm Sixteen, by the way. So, we're not 'dat far apart in age. It's too bad ya live so far away in Staten Island. I'd have to take a ferry ride if I eveah wanted ta come and visit ya 'dere." she said, smiling at him.
Then she watched him fall on the floor as something had just downright scared the poor boy. She went wide-eyed "Christ, Spazz! Are you alright?" she asked, looking slightly alarmed.
When she saw him come back up, and smile at her, Belle smiled back "Oh boy...you're a pleasure to be wit'. What's got ya so scared there, sweetie?" she asked him.

Spazz smile as he climbed back into his seat. He tried to fix his wild hair but it was hopeless. Nothing scared me I just heard something fall, loud noises trigger meh attention Ey'!" Spazz smile as he thought of Belle coming to visit him. She was nice and open he liked friendly open people. They were fun to be around with never a dull moment not ever.
"Belle I's not scared of nothing see's I's got this problem." Spazz's eye drifted from Belle to the sound of the tonic fountain as he jumped a little. "I's hyper...toos hyper sometimes but ey' thats why dey call me Spazz." He nodded agreeing with himself as he felt stared at the room got a little hot. He hated when negative attention was on him. Spazz stood up as he entered the booth on her side now sitting beside Belle. "Sorry Belle I's just can't have people looking at me at least if they's look at you, they's have a reason, your beauty captured their eyes." He smirked at his choice of words as his mind raced leaning his head on her shoulder looking into her eyes with a smile his eyes innocent and widened. |

Belle nodded as she listened to what Spazz said about loud noise triggering him. He was a bit jumpy, but she was used to it as she had stated to him earlier.
"Oh, it's okay, sweetie. Being hyper is nothin' ta worry 'bout. I had a friend who was like you back in Ireland. If ya gave the poor lass enough sugar, she'd be bouncing everywhere." She said, chuckling as she recalled the memory of her late friend.
Belle's heart practically stopped as she jumped when she turned to see Spazz now sitting next to her with a smile on his face that could stop any girl in her tracks.She also smiled back as she locked eyes with him. He was a cute little thing.
When she heard his statement about her beauty capturing people's eyes, Belle gasped, her breath caught in her throat. *Damn, this lad is quite the smooth talker* she thought to herself.
"Thank ya so much for those beautiful words, Spazz. You sure know how to make a lass like meself feel wanted." she said, letting her Irish accent slip out a bit.
As she saw Spazz still smiling up at her. It almost made her wonder what it was that he wanted from her. She guessed she was going to find out soon enough.

Spazz looked into Belle's eyes Spazz never got along with men due to his past no with girl and women he liked attention and affection if they;d give it to him. He loved to cuddle and be loved due to lack of. He was quite Hyper, and Bi-Polar at times but this was just one of those good days. A girl, a pretty one actually letting him be himself around her made him happy. She was defiantly Irish. Her accent was cute.
"I's glad I can be make you's feel good. Yer Irish, I's French." Spazz stated showing her he noticed it. Spazz help his heart race a little as he took her hand in his a little dirty, but his hands weren't too bad today. Spazz grew excited and nervous at the same time as his eyes skimmed the room seeing eyes on. He jumped a little and fidgeted in his seat before looking at his hand holding hers and with his other took the mug of beer drinking it down with a hiccup. "Merci, for staying and understanding."

Belle couldn't get the smile off her face suddenly as the realisation hit her, and hit her hard...this boy was flirting with her...and she was enjoying it. She loved the attention, and it felt good to be wanted.
She saw him still smiling at her. She didn't know what to do. She liked Spazz already, and she had just met him. She was completely loving his company.
"Oh, you have definitely made me feel good, lad. I'm having fun so far."She said, cheerfully.
She was fully aware of Spazz's sudden closeness to her. She felt his hand take hers. She looked down at it, and smiled. He had ink stains on them, possibly from sellin' papes. She didn't mind very much. She curled her fingers around his hand, and tightened her grip slightly.
"Hmmmm...Irish and French...it's a bloddy good mixture, I'd say. Wouldn't you?" Belle said to him.
Just then she heard him thank her in french. Her French was very limited, but she knew what Merci meant. She then thought she'd respond back to him.
"De rien. Vous avez été telle bonne entreprise si éloigné. " She said to him, stroking his face.

Spazz smiled at her French words, they were cute and kind broken by her own accent. Spazz smiled as she touched his face as he blushed a little his cheeks turning a bright rid color and his brown eyes sparkled a little as he could feel her soft smooth fingertips over his face.
"Wee, I's agree, I's couldn't think of a better way to spend my day then to with you hea, glad I's wanted a beeyah you know?" He smiled leaning forward kissing her cheek for a second then back up opening his eyes as he looked around and now felt very unstable, he wanted to jump up but he wanted to remain calm as his energy kicked in and he tamed himself.

Belle couldn't put her finger on what was happening here. A boy only 2 years younger than her was flirting with her, and it felt good to her. She loved it. *Well, they say that age ain't nothin' but a number.* she thought to herself.
She tilted her head to the side as she felt Spazz's face. He felt good to her. It's like he was all over her. His hand in hers, the feeling of her hand on his face.
She smiled at her own attempt at French. It had been a while since she had spoken it. She was in anyway French, but she had some friends who taught her some.
"Well, there's nowhere I'd rather be than here with ya too, lad. You're so kind, and sweet, and ya make me feel good as well. " Belle told Spazz.
Just then, she felt his lips on her cheek. Her eyes widened a bit . *He kissed me?! Ohhh, this boy is smooth and fast...Love it.* she thought to herself.
Belle then leaned in, and planted a kiss on Spazz's cheek as well. She then leaned into his ear, and whispered to him in a smoky tone.
"Merci, le bien-aimé. Vous avez l'âme la plus belle. " Belle whispered to him in his ear softly.

[font=arial=Spazz shrugged into his shoulder as she whispered into his ear. What could he say. The girl she was flirty in a good way and knew what to say making him want to be smooth with his words. He just felt right acting as he did with her. "Belle' we should do something fun." Spazz said as he looked around trying to change the subject. The feeling of nervousness grew as he moves away out of the booth taking her hand in his as he reached into his pocket dropping some odd money on the table. "That should cover it!" He said excitedly not being able to control the feeling of nervousness that now made him sweat a little and totally hyper.
Spazz smiled as he was watched a little by the eyes that made him ever so uncomfortable and paranoid. He got to the door as he pulled on Belle's hand leading her out opening the door for her and glancing back with a smirk and a wave. Spazz took a breath and smoothed his wild hair as he flipped it to the side looking at Belle. "Je suis désolé. Je n'aime pas ça là-dedans." He was apologizing for cutting her meal short. But he just couldn't leave her to walk out alone so he had to take her with him. Spazz took her hand in his intertwining his fingers with hers and he gave off a little blush and smirked. "What next?" [/font] Translation to English is .."I'm sorry. I do not like it there." |

Belle almost bursted out laughing at how nervous Spazz looked as his eyes scanned the diner. She watched him throw some money on the table, stating on how the money will cover for the meal and his beer.
"Yes, that looks like it'll do just fine, lad." She said with a smile.
Just then her heart nearly leaped out of her chest as she felt Spazz's hand slip into hers, and pull her out the door of the place.
As they stood outside of Tibby's now, Belle looked over at Spazz as he apologized to her in French.
"Oh, it's okay sweetie. I was almos' done anyway." She told him.
She looked up and down the street, and smiled over at the boy beside her. She was wondering how she was gonna spend the rest of the day with this kid. When she heard him ask what they should do next, Belle shrugged.
"What next? Oh sweetie, I don't know. Do you wanna walk ta Central Park? We can stay there for a while, and walk around the path. How does that sound?" she asked him.
