She nearly jumped out of her skin at that, blinking up at him and turning pink as she shut the book. "Nothing!"

He dashed over and grabbed the book out of her hands, holding it up and reading the cover. "Taming the Duke... Taming how exactly?"

She blushed to her ears. "Taming...well, ya know..." She sighed, folding her arms over her chest and pouting as she muttered. "It's a smut novel..."

"Steal it from Tag?" he asked, smirking as he flipped through the pages. He caught sight of very naughty words, and he suppressed a laugh.

"Well, borrowed...but yes." She huffed a little. "I'm just trying to live vicariously, thank you very much."

He did let out a laugh now as he flopped on the couch next to her, the book still open in front of him. "So, you dream of the day when a Duke will throw you on the bed, rip your bodice, and kiss every inch of you, hmm?"

"Among other things." She muttered, pouting at him. "What? Like you don't look at those picture postcards I know the boys pass around?"

He shut the book and tossed it back to her, clearing his throat. "So, what do ya wanna do?"

She smirked at his change of subject. "Uh huh. So you do look at those pictures." She poked his side playfully, teasing him.

He tried not to smirk and blush, and he thought he was pretty successful. "I was thinkin' maybe go to Central Park? Hang out at the zoo or something?"

She laughed, amused, then moved to rest her chin on his shoulder. "The zoo could be fun. I've only been once."

"Plus, it's real cheap. That's always a plus for us newsies," he said, chuckling to himself and trying not to get worked up over how close she was to him.

She smirked at him, teasing. "That mean you're gonna pay for me?" She smiled and pressed a kiss to his cheek, rubbing her nose against his stubble. "Come on, let's go." She moved to get off the couch.

He took a deep breath and followed her out of the House, toward Central Park. He stuffed his hands in his pockets so he wouldn't be tempted to reach out and hold hers. "Did ya sleep all right?"

She wrapped her shawl tighter around her to keep off the chill. "Mhm." She'd had dreams about Goblin, like she did every night, but she wasn't about to tell him that. "You?"
