Hush didn't smile, but nodded his head all the same. It wasn't a fun thing to become a newsie at a very young age. Not fun at all. He felt her eyes on him and shifted in his seat.

Piper looked back at the water and back down at her dress, seeing if it was real dirty or scoffed up.
"Did you see the rally with Medda?" Piper asked aloud for him to hear, hoping he did so she wouldn't look like a idiot.

Hush smiled and nodded his head. "Yes. I heard you singing a song that she sang." He was there, and he did have fun, but he was one of the few people who weren't singing. It was way to embarrassing for someone like Hush, to sing and dance.

"Ah, I can tell you're aren't the singing type, especially at a big rally like that." Piper added with a grin and she looked down at her hand. There was a long scar line by her palm where she got beaten by a cop from the aftermath. She then brushed her hand up against her neck, feeling another scar from the same night.
"Did you get hurt? OR did you get out of there okay?" Piper asked in curiosity, hoping he would know what she was talking about.

Her words made him blush yet again, and he watched her stroke her palm, and the back of her neck. He assumed there were scars, but it wasn't his business. So, he didn't ask.
"Um...no. I didn't get out. Got hurt." Hush was NOT the running type at all.

Dewey had been planning to come down to the area under the bridge for some peace and quiet for a few days now. He loved the city for the most part but sometimes it bothered him that he was almost never alone. People said that, even though the city was so heavily populated the anonymity of it could make anyone feel lonely but to Dewey that was a load of crock. He didn't care if nobody knew him when he walked down the street, he wasn't alone unless he was actually physically alone and sometimes that was just what he needed.
Usually the area under the bridge was fairly deserted save for a hobo or two so he was surprised when the first thing he saw when he got down there was a girl who looked to be about his age (from the back, anyhow) bending over to pick some thing up off the ground.
a smirk formed on his lips. If anything was going to prevent him from getting some peace and quiet, this would definitely be his first choice. "Well, I usually come down heah foah da quiet but I guess da view ain't so bad eithah" he commented loudly, strolling toward the girl. "Whaddaya lookin' foah?"

Jade froze ,picked up her belonging and stood up slowly,her dark freen eyes scanning the boy. Jade smirked at his comments, "I'se dropped me slingshot." she settled back on her rock. she grabbed two cigarettes,light one and gave the boy a smirk and held out a cigarette to him as she took a long drag,"you'se want one?Dis is a once in a life time chance boyo." she stuck her cap and said "So what yoar name boyo,or do i'se have ta call you'se dat?"

Dewey chuckled and accepted the cigarrette " 'coarse" he replied rather needlessly as he had already accepted the smoke "I nevah turn down a free smoke" he added as he pulled out a book of matches and struck one. After he had lit the cigarette, he stared intently at the little flame, blowing it out only when it had nearly reached his fingers. "Sorry, I like fire a lot." he took a drag on his cigarette and shifted his feet slightly. "damn near burned down my Pop's barn wit' a lamp once when I was five." he chuckled again, a nostalgic look in his eyes. "He tanned my hide but good. used a bottoming spade. metal. Hurt like hell." suddenly, he seemed to snap back to his present situation "anyhow, da name's Dewey like dat colonel guy who was in da news a whole bunch a few yeahs back. won some battle or somethin' in Hawaii or somewheah like dat. what's yoah's?"

Dewey reciprocated her gesture. "Hmm, so dat's yoah real name?" he commented in off handed disbelief. "shoah is a weird one. Nevah met nobody named Jade befoah." he shrugged, letting the issue drop "oh well, my last name's Weiss but I ain't gonna tell ya what my real first name is. Dat's private" he paused to take another drag of his cigarette before speaking up again "I come heah foah quiet too. Case you couldn't tell from my story 'bout my pop's barn, I used ta live on a farm. real secluded too. the whole town was just a few families and plenty a' peace an' quiet. Heah, not so much. Jus' gets ta be too much sometimes, ya know?"

"Jade ain't me real name,wish it was though." I said and smiled at his protectivness,"Jist about every newsies name is private,mine is too of course." "Jade is my newsie name." she threw her used up cigarette on the ground and started fiddling with her slingshot. "So You'se a newsie?"

*NEW DAY*
Lexi lifted her skirts and slipped over her shoes before walking out into the water. She sighed with contentment. This had come to be one of her favorite places to go over the last few months. She wasn't sure if it was because of her memories of the place. This was after all where she'd met the only friend she'd made in New York, Avalanche. But this place was also very serene and peaceful. It gave her plenty of time with her thoughts.

Dodger had finished selling his papers and he was on his way back from the docks when he spotted Lexi. His brow lifted wondering why the girl looked so forlorn. "Lexi? What's the matter love?" It was Dodger, he flashed her a good natured grin that went with his raised brow.

Lexi turned, putting a hand to her stomach, slightly startled at having been caught so lost in her own thoughts and emotions. She started towards the edge of the water so she wouldn't have to yell. It was amazing how easily Dodger had read her. She was worried about her brother, she hadn't seen him since the night before but figured he was with Reid. "Oh, nothing....Dodger have you seen Perry today? I'm sure I'm worried for nothing and he's with Reid but well...you know me." Lexi smiled slightly, pushing her hair back, "I just love to worry."
