Summary
Jack hates the way the words wobble and strangle in his chest, pleading. Davey's eyes flash with some strong emotion Jack barely has time to register before it's gone. Davey lets out a shaky, breathless noise that could perhaps be called a broken laugh before he ever so slowly nods. It seems far too long and not long enough before Jack has him in his arms. Jack moves cautiously, making sure Dave is aware of every movement before he wraps his arms around Davey and pulls him close. Davey shudders, a tremor rolling down his body and Jack hates the way he can he feel the bones beneath the other boy's shirt. How painfully light he is. Jack tries to swallow the bile in his throat and hopes that Davey can even remember the last time he ate.
The moment he pulls the warm presence of Dave close to his chest the suffocating, heavy weight coiled in his chest unfurls. Jack let out a shaky breath. Davey sinks into the embrace and Jack's grip tightens.
"I think I forgot what human contact felt like."
(An AU set loosely in a version of events where Davey was in Refuge, not Crutchie. This is set directly at/after his return and results in a whole lot of cuddling newsboys)

Summary
A trip to New York in the summer of 2014 wasn't supposed to be life-changing; David had only been there for a friend. One ghostly encounter later, and he finds himself waking up in 1898. Adjusting to a new life, a new society with new people, is difficult enough, but David just had to go and get himself involved in a strike, all because one of the newsies has very familiar eyes.
Or, an Outlander AU, but make it gay newsboys.

Summary
Right. Because, just in case he had forgotten, he was about to spend eight hours and thirty-five minutes, thirty thousand feet in the air, stuck sitting next to Davey fucking Jacobs. Fantastic.
Jack and Davey parted ways three years ago. In the time since, Davey has become a world-renowned author, and Jack a wildly successful artist. And somehow, they have ended up on the same flight from New York to Rome.
