Summary
“Hang on,” Jack says, hand chasing Davey’s, which then falls uselessly to his side. The crease between his eyebrows has now become more prominent. “Davey, what are you talkin’ about?”
“You’re—you’re breaking up with me, aren’t you?” Davey whispers, just loud enough to be heard.

In Which David Shares a Kiss with Another Boy in the Wings of a Theatre by politiesgearup
Fandoms: Newsies (1992), Newsies - All Media Types
16 Feb 2025
Tags
Summary
Jack notices David's eyes on him and turns his head to meet his gaze, that same smile of admiration now directed at him instead of at Miss Medda.
His smile shouldn't be making David feel the same butterflies that he should be feeling around pretty girls, but he can't help himself when Jack's full attention is on him and he's just so good-looking. He definitely shouldn't be saying something like that about another boy, either.
Or
a rewrite of the movie's theatre scene but just a little bit gayer

Summary
“Hey look there's Denton!” Specs exclaimed, pointing down the sidewalk where Denton was rushing to meet them. Jack turned quickly but he was soon disappointed when he realized the man was walking alone.
“Where is everyone?” David asked as soon as Denton was in earshot, the urgency clear in his voice.
“The judge said they’d already been bailed out, they didn’t even make it to court,” Denton explained.
The strike takes an unexpected turn for the worse after a particularly bloody protest and Jack has to grapple with his guilt and an unwarranted betrayal.
