Jack: I was at the lodging house playing cards with Mush when all of a sudden Skittery and Bumlets came into the room with jacks arms wrapped around their shoulders.

"Oh my god!" I said as I got up to Jacks eye level. "What in the world happened?"

"Cowboy here got mad at the Delanceys when they started talkin bout you in...." Skittery looked down and rubbed the back of his neck "um dirty ways." Bumlets let out and sigh and started shaking his head.

"It really was bad (y/n)" Bumlets said setting Jack down on a chair nearby.

"Okay thanks guys," I said walking over to Jack. Both boys went upstairs and it was just me and Jack in the room. "You really gotta start controlling your anger when it comes to them." I said brushing the hair out of his face. "They've done it before and they'll do it again."

"That doesn't mean Ise can't defend you!"

"Okay cowboy"

Mush: You and Mush were running around outside during a rainstorm, laughing and having an amazing time. People rushing by would give you rude looks when you splashed water on them from jumping in puddles. As Mush and you were running to go back home, Mush slipped and fell flat on his face.

"Oh my gosh Mush are you okay?!" you said helping him off the ground.

"Yeah just got a little bruised up I think..." he said clutching his head with his hands. As you then walked back to the lodging house, you made sure that mush had his arm around you securely. Turns out he got a concussion from slamming his head down too hard on the concrete road.

David: You and David were known as school nerds. Since David had left school to become a newsie, you were left to be given all the ridicule for getting good grades and doing your homework. As you walked down the school hallway, you grabbed your books to go meet david outside. He met you there everyday and would walk you home. Just as you were about to exit the building, someone grabbed your books from your hands and threw them on the floor. "What?-" you were cut off by this guy named Dominic, who always loved to make fun of you.

"Where you going nerd? Off to meet your trashy newsie?" he mocked, ripping up a newspaper in your face.

"Hey!" you heard from the door, as David walked towards you and Dominic. "Leave her alone asshole!"

You flinched. You had only heard David curse a few times before, and it was usually before he hit someone. You knew where this was going, so you stepped in front of David. "Davey, don't it's not worth it!" as you said this, you felt yourself being pushed to the side by Dominic. David then lashed out and threw the first punch. Later that night, you were cleaning Davids wounds he had earned from the fight, also sneaking kisses every now and then when his mom wasn't looking.
