Sweetheart nodded.
"You're right, Jewely." Then she noticed that the sun was setting. "I think that we should start heading back to the Lodging House." she said, standing up.

Jewel sighed as she looked that it was starting to get dark outside. She was getting exhausted after all of the walking she had done today.
"I couldn't agree with you more, Sweetie-Bird. C'mon, let's get back to the house, and just relax." she said, taking SWeetheart's hand.

*New Day*
Sweetheart was at the pond again. She really hoped that she would get to see her brother sometime soon. She also saw this really cute boy who was hanging around Pallet. They even looked alike.
Sweetheart heard someone coming up behind her and she stiffened.

Jewel then came up behind Sweetheart quickly putting her hands on her 'little sister's' shoulders. She then hugged her around the neck from behind.
"Hey, Sweetie-bird! How's it rolling?" she asked with a smile.
"I've got a surprise for you....and you're gonna be so shocked when you hear this. But I met the most wonderful man today. He's about 16 or 17 years old, and he's the sweetest, kindest guy ever. He asked me to be his girl...and I said Yes. Now wait till you see who I'm talking about." she said

Evan laughs and turned his little sister around to face him.
"Hey, baby sister. You look so much like Mom." he said with actual tears in his eyes. His sister really did look like their mom. "I'm sorry for not being around back in Missouri." he said.

Sweetheart squealed happily and hugged her brother. She was so happy that her broher was with her.
Then she pulled away wide-eyed. "Wait, Jewel?" she turned to her 'Older sister'. "You said that you were asked to be the mystery man's girl. Are you and my brother a couple?" she asked, hoping that it was true.

Jewel watched the reunion Sweetheart and Shadow. She couldn't be more happy. She knew it had been so long since they had seen each other last. She wiped away a stray tear, and sighed.
"Wait, Jewel?"
Jewel smiled, knowing something else was about to follow Sweetheart's shocked statement. She almost couldn't believe it herself.
"You said that you were asked to be the mystery man's girl. Are you and my brother a couple?"
Jewel nodded and leaned her head on Evan's shoulder. "Yes, Sweetie-bird....your brother asked me to be his girl...and I accepted." She said, closing her eyes.
She then turned to Evan, and smiled "Why don't you tell her the whole story, Evan?" she asked him, planting a kiss on his lips quickly.

Evan explained the whole thing to his sister. How he was just sittig on the porch of the Bronx Newsboys Lodging House when Jewel came along, how she found out that it was Sweetheart's brother when he introduced himself and how Evan thought that Jewel was a wonderful person and vice versa.
"I'm glad you found a caring person like Jewel, Brittani. Are you alright with me dating Jewel?" Evan asked.
"So, Brittani, any boys that caught your attention?" Evan asked, teasingly cracking his knuckles.

Sweetheart listened to her brother's story about how he and Jewel got together. When he finished he asked her the dumbest question she had ever heard.
"Brittani, are you alright with me and Jewel dating?" her brother asked.
Sweetheart hugged her brother tightly. "Of course I'm alright with it!! Jewel needs a guy in her life. But if you hurt her, I am coming after you with a very large stick." Sweetheart threatened seriously.
Sweetheart went bright red when Evan stared cracking his knuckles. "Well, there is one boy who's about my age and he hangs around the Bronx a lot." Sweetheart admitted.

Jewel smiled as she watched the siblings hugged. She hadn't Sweetheart this happy in the last few weeks, and she was glad that this moment brought a smile to her face.
Why wouldn't it be okay. with her, Evan? She was the one practically throwing us together before we ever met." Jewel said to Evan with a laugh.
Then she watched as Evan and Sweetheart exchanged dialogue about a boy from the Bronx. "Ohhh, well ain't that cute? Sweetie-Bird has a crush, Evan. I love it."she said.
Just then, she turned to Evan and smiles at him, locking her eyes with his. "You are the best thing that ever happened to me in such a short time." she said, kissing him passionately.

[[ New Day ]]
It was probably not something that Emma wanted to be doing as she edged into the pond with her skirt up around her knees to try to keep it from getting wet. But it wasn't until you noticed the dog in the water that it was-- probably exactly what Emma Walker wanted to be doing as she edged into the water and wrapped her arms around the smelly puppy that was struggling in the depth.
"No no," she insisted as she tugged the pup towards the shore. "Come on little one just help me a tiny bit that's all I ask.." She still had one hand on her skirts the other around the puppy as she trudged back up to the shore looking down at the puppy before she smiled.
She wanted to claim it but wasn't sure if she'd be allowed to keep it. Who really cared if she was allowed she would anyway, dropping onto her back when she got to the shore. "What were you doing out there anyway?" she asked the small pup, barely old enough to be away from his mother, scratching behind his ear.

Byron sat with his back against a tree a few feet from the pond; his journal sat in his lap. He was able to scribble a few new poems down inside it today, being inspired by the quiet and beautiful landscape Pelham Bay Park provided.
Byron set his journal down on the ground next to him and laid down on the ground resting with his arms behind his head and his hat pulled over his face. He closed his eyes and just let the peacefulness completely envelop him. He was just beginning to doze off when some splashing in the nearby pond pulled him out of it.
Byron sat up and looked in the direction of where all the commotion was coming from. All he could make out was the top of a blonde head of hair so, he stood up. What he saw made him chuckle. Emma was trying to rescue a little pup a little ways out. He picked his journal up off the ground and stuck it into his back pocket and made his way towards where she was currently laying on the ground. "If I knew I would be rescued by a pretty girl, I think I'd do the same thing as the pup, Love." He chuckled as he looked down at his friend who looked a bit soggy. "Em... I think the little mutt might've fared a bit better in this situation then you did."

She was soggy but she was smiling, her arms around the puppy even as it squirmed around. "Hi,' she replied with a raise of her hand leaning her head back to look at him as he lorded over. A quick smile crossed her face as she sat up, holding the squirming animal out to him.
"Think that River will let me keep him?"
(sorry so long and so not very long at all)

Byron took a seat next to the drenched pair and smiled at Emma and the soggy ball of fur. He couldn't help but give the little mutt a quick scratch behind the ear--even if he did smell. He was a cute thing, he'd have to admit. Reminded him of a dog he and the O'Shea's had back in Ireland.
Byron raised an eyebrow, "Does it really matter whether River will let ya, Love?" Honestly he didn't know one way or another whether River would let her keep the little pup, but he knew there was a rule about pets in the Lodging House; now how strictly that rule was enforced, he couldn't tell ya. He did recall the few times that some of the younger boys tried to sneak a stray cat or an injured bird into the Lodging House while Dodger ran things, but none of the animals stuck around long enough for Dodger to find them. They always either made their way out an open window or door, or they died.
Byron looked at Emma and the pup. "You'll probably sweet talk him into letting you keep the thing anyways." He smirked again and shot her a playful wink. He knew how things worked. Emma made it hard for you to tell her no when she really wanted something.
Byron gave the pup another scratch behind the ear. Probably would raise spirits in the girls house to have the little thing around, and he would fare much better there then in the boys house. "You got a named picked out for the little ball of fur?"
