He headed outside and back toward the lodging house with her, though it was going to be a long walk if they didn't catch another carriage. He smiled brightly at every working newsie they passed, as if to assure them all that they were doing good work and should not, at any point, go home.

Now every gambler knows that the secret to survivin'
Is knowin' what to throw away and knowin' what to keep.
'Cause every hand's a winner and every hand's a loser,
And the best that you can hope for is to die in your sleep.

Sapphy walked a little closer to Race, beaming despite herself. She knew her and Race weren't probably going to, ahem, consumate anything today. But the opportunity was there, and she was excited to have the chance to not hold back on him.

He smiled and looped his arm through hers, figuring they could touch now, since they were soon going to have a chance to do a little more. Suddenly the walk didn't seem all that long, and they were coming up on Duane Street before he knew it.

Her fingertips brushed against his jaw.

Race wrapped his arms around her and pulled her close, kissing her back and taking his time about it. If someone walked in--well, they wouldn't be the first couple to be caught here like this, and Spot and Rae had been caught doing worse. He moved one hand slowly and teasingly down her back.

Merciless indeed. At this point Race was pretty sure that if anyone was in the bunkroom, he might kill them. He stopped kissing Sapphy's lips and neck just long enough to carry her up the stairs, and glance at the doors at either end. "Boys' and girls'...which one's usually emptier?" he asked hoarsely.

Race nodded and carried her to the boys' room, which, thank all the saints, was empty. He was proud of himself for actually finding his own bunk and not tossing Sapphy onto some other random bed. He climbed in with her and leaned over her, kissing and running his hand along her hip.

She stretched out beneath him, pushing the pillow off the edge of the bunk.

After he'd been kissing her deeply for some time and no one had come in, Race kissed his way down her neck to her shirt collar. Buttons, hmm. He ran his finger along them and undid the first one, smiling and waiting for her to open her eyes.

She breathed in a deep breath and sighed. She reached up and untucked Race's shirt from his pants.
