Mush looked up and chuckled a little. "Heh... if ya ask me, when in New York... do as New Yorkers do!" he said with a smile before he decided to lean over and kiss her gently.

She blinked a bit when he kissed her but chuckled a bit and kissed him back, giving him a strange look before she smiled. "Well, like my maman would say.. c'est la vie.." she smiled up at the couple above them. "New York, the city where you can make your fortune, that's whay my brother always said.. think it's true?"

Mush shrugged. "Ain't true for me at the current time, but... I mean, maybe in the future. I think if you really get goin', famous, and/or worked hard I think it could definatly be done. Do you think it's true?"

She shrugged a bit, "That's partially why I came here. I figure if someone can come off the boats and make something of themselves then, maybe I can too.." she grinned at him. "We'll both get what we want, Mush. I can't promise you, chere. But, I can feel it.." There was something in her smile that said she meant it. She knew that he could be whatever he wanted, he was just that kind of person.

Mush smiled at her and believed her. He just did, he had no reason not to. "Yeah, I hope so. Just... gotta figure out what I want first," he said. He was usually one for living in the present, so for him figuring out exactly what he wanted was no simple task for him.

she laughed and nodded, "That's the thing isn't it? Gotta find out what we want.. I figure if you play it simple you can't go wrong.." She beamed a bit. "If I survive this well, the next few months then what I want is pretty clear."

Mush smiled to her. "Exactly, can't be all that hard can it?" he asked with a smile to her. "Looks like I gotta start plannin' my life," he said with a chuckle. "At least the next couple of months!" he grinned to her.

She chuckled a bit, and nodded, "Got any ideas?" she enquired, wishing she had a muff or something like the rich girls. Her hands were getting cold with the sun going down. Her nose was getting a healthy red from the cold. She was southern, all this cold was new to her.

The ferris wheel stopped and finally let Mush and Lanna off. "Well... think we oughta head home? I mean... ya gotta be cold," he said. "Ideas? For the future? Hmmm... not really, just think I know I'd like to spend more time with you."

That caused her to go a few more shades of red and she laughed, "I'd honestly like that too. You should come see me more then.." She blinked a bit and grabbed his shoulders, moving him so he was blocking her from the crowd, kind of tugging him towards the walls that lined the boardwalk. She glanced over his shoulder and bit her lip. "Oh dear.. it is Trevor.. I know that swagger anywhere.." She looked up at Mush. "What do we do?"

Mush looked over in the general area that Alanna had been looking, and found someone who must have been her brother. He looked a lot like her. "Ummm... hurry? Run? Make a break for Manhattan and not look back." They couldn't go to the Bronx because then Trevor would know where she was really hiding.

She bit her lip a moment and furrowed her brow. "I can't go back, Mush. I can't. I wont marry some banker, not so that papa can get outta debt over something that isn't even his fault.. I'm not some dairy cow to be sold.." She was adiment about this as she took his hand in hers, finding strength where she could. "Think running'll work?"

"Shhh," he said quieting her voice, as she took his hand. "Dont' want him to find you now, keep your voice down. And running, I think it's the only option we've got at this point," he nearly whispered. "Unless you have a better idea I suggest we get started. I know the streets pretty well, I can hide us in the alleys if we need to. We'll be okay."

She nodded, saying nothing as she cast one last look at her brother. There was, something, in her eyes. She really missed her family, her home, and most of all, she missed being free. That's what she was fighting for right? Her freedom. She gave his hand a squeeze to let him know she was ready to run, one day she wouldn't need to but. Oh, dash it all..

He nodded and instantly took off running with her towards Manhattan as fast as he thought he could go, with her still able to keep up. If she wanted to stay, then he was going to help her any way he could.
