When Muse took his answer and only gave him one more curious look, he let out a little sigh of relief and like her continued to look for a cart.
"There's a fruit cart and the vendors pretty nice, But only when he's had his morning coffee. Which I take it he didn't."
Rex smirked and nodded, "Yeahhh...I say we find a different cart." They continued walking, both scanning until Rex nodded to another cart.
"Hey, that one's got some rolls, and there's a little cafe right behind it. We could get some chocolate milk to go with it," Rex suggested, smiling at their luck.

"Yeahhh...I say we find a different cart."
Nodding in agreement she laughed as she skipped next to him, still looking for something good to eat before they had to work.
"Hey, that one's got some rolls, and there's a little cafe right behind it. We could get some chocolate milk to go with it,"
Looking at the cart she nodded with a smile. "That sounds good. Ya got my hooked on chocolate milk now." She laughed as she dragged him towards the cart.

"That sounds good. Ya got my hooked on chocolate milk now."
"What's not to like? It's milk, and its chocolate!" Rex stated the obvious, and then grinned happy go lucky as she dragged him to the cart.
Rex stepped up, pulling some change out of his pocket, "Two rolls please." He requested and the vendor nodded with a grunt and handed him two. Rex thanked him and handed one to Muse.
"Wait here! I'll go get the chocolate milk!" Rex exclaimed and bounced towards the cafe, bounced in, and bounced back out. They took a seat on the curb and Rex handed her her chocolate milk, ready to dig in to breakfast, his stomach was starting to growl.

"What's not to like? It's milk, and its chocolate!"
Laughing she stuck her tongue out at him and flicked his nose in a sisterly manner. "Thank you." She said as she took the roll from him.
"Wait here! I'll go get the chocolate milk!"
Nodding with a laugh Muse sat down and waited for him rolling the roll between her hands. Her mother would have yelled at her for playing with her food, a sad smile creased her lips as she thought about her mother.
Her birthday was coming up fast, birthdays were always the hardest for Muse. With a sigh, she masked her sadness with an energetic smile as Rex bounced back out and sat next to her with the drinks. "Yum!" She smiled and took the one he handed her. "Thanks Rex!"

"Thanks Rex!"
"Well, I'm your brudda. I gotta make sure you're fed, don't I?" Rex asked with a smirk taking a bite of his roll. There was a small silence between them as they ate, not a bad silence, no, content silence. The two just liked being together.
Rex watched her eat for a moment, and noticed something. He frowned slightly. It was her smile. He knew Muse to a fault and her smile didn't quite reach all the way to her blue eyes. He couldn't think of much that could be wrong. He ate for a moment, thinking about it. He remembered. Her birthday was coming up. Maybe birthdays were hard for her, maybe she was used to celebrating her birthday all alone and it hurt her.
Rex eyed the package sitting next to him and picked it up. "Hey Alice, I gots a little surprise for you here. I led you along a little before, cuz I didn't want you to figure it out til' the time was right. I know you're birthdays coming up, but I just can't wait to give it to you, here," He said softly, handing her the package, his love for her showing in his eyes.

"Well, I'm your brudda. I gotta make sure you're fed, don't I?"
Laughing a bit she nodded as she bit into her roll. This is one of the reasons she loved Rex, he cared about people and it made her really proud that she was his sister.
"Hey Alice, I gots a little surprise for you here. I led you along a little before, cuz I didn't want you to figure it out til' the time was right. I know you're birthdays coming up, but I just can't wait to give it to you, here,"
She looked up when he used her real name usually he just called her Muse. She put her cup between her feet and the roll on her knee as she looked at the package. She looked back up at him. "You didn't need ta get me anythin'." She said as she took the package gently and opened it slowly. A small gasp escaped her lips as she saw the blue suspenders, placing one ink stained hand over her mouth she turned back to him. "Their amazing," She said with a smile that reached her eyes. "They must have been so expensive."

"You didn't need ta get me anythin'."
Rex shook his head, watching her open it, and her response made him grin. It was nice to see that smile back in her eyes.
"They must have been so expensive."
Rex shrugged modestly, "Naw, not that bad, I ain't no billionare you know, I only buy things I can afford. And Sides' what does that matter. I wants my sister to be the prettiest out there on the street. Those brown ratty ones aren't gonna last too much longer, huh?" He asked grinning an

Smiling she leaned towards him careful of her breakfast and kissed his cheek. "Thank you. Their great." She said as she bit into her roll and stood. Putting her glass of chocolate milk next to him she looked at the alley behind them. Smiling she jogged into the alley and quickly took her vest off and changed her suspenders. Dropping the ratty brown ones on a crate she snapped the beautiful blue ones into place and adjusted the length til they fit her just right. Grabbing her vest and putting the brown ones into a near by trash can she jogged back, vest in hand and showed off the new suspenders. "Ta da!" She said with a big smile.

"Thank you. Their great."
Rex nodded and a wide grin spread across his face as she kissed his cheek. He was glad to cheer her up for one thing, anytime he could bring that grin out made him feel good inside. She really did have a beautiful smile.
"Ta da!"
Rex stared at them for a long moment, gaping, before he whistled. "And I thought they looked good on the shelf..." He gave her a big grin and gave her a one armed hug. "You look beautiful sis."

"And I thought they looked good on the shelf...You look beautiful sis."
"Oh well thank you." Laughing she nudged him with her elbow before putting her vest back on, but leaving it unbuttoned so everyone would be able to see it. Leaning against him she smiled happily and quickly finished breakfast she had to get to the distribution center and Rex had to get to the tracks. "Ready ta go?"

"Ready ta go?"
Rex yawned and leaned back, before folding his arms across his chest and giving her a stubborn little look. "I spose so, I don't want to be late. Carson is on edge he gets mad even about that. But I really wish I could go back to bed..." He said with another yawn and scratched his neck lazily swatting at a fly.

"Well it's no wonder he's on edge. Look what's goin' on with his wife." She shrugged as she pulled him down the street once they were ready. They both needed to head to Queens. "Do ya think Mrs. Carson will be okay?" She asked sincerely.

((guys when you change location you should really change threads so no one gets confused... alright? Because yeah--)
Lucky had her cat in her arms as she walked down the street right near the lodging house, he'd been mousing and Lucky lifted a brow after seeing both of them come from the lodging house.
"Hey you-- new girl-- don't bring your men to the lodging house, specially not some pansy from Queens you got me? Spot'll have kittens.. he don't like having men that aint Brooks near here.." she knew it was true, hell he didn't like some of the Brooklyn boys near the girls.

(Sorry I guess we got kinda lazy. Should we move the convo then?)
"Hey you-- new girl-- don't bring your men to the lodging house, specially not some pansy from Queens you got me?"
Muse looked back over to the girl that called her. Standing to her full height, which wasn't very tall, she straightened her back with a small glare. "He ain't a pansy." She said almost sternly as she pushed her hands into her pockets with a shrug. "And I didn't think it would be that big of a deal, he's just my brother."

Lucky smirked she didn't care and the glare did nothing to detour the also small five foot something Brooklyn Girl. She thought that it was--- well pointless to glare at her. Lucky was a badass and knew it so she didn't need to prove it.
"He sure looks like one, and I really don't care either way.. just don't be bringin him to the lodging house.." saying that she picked up her cat and walked into the lodging house.
(might be a good idea)
