She grinned at him. "Alright, Eli. So I'll stay here and you go across the street, and we'll see who's done first." She winked at him.

Eli shouted ridiculous headlines.
"MINERS FIND GOLD IN SOUTHERN ILLINOIS! SECOND GOLD RUSH!"
"PRESIDENT DECLARES WAR ON FRANCE! NO MORE FRENCH FRIES!"
"MAN CLAIMS HIS DOG TALKS- WHAT WILL THE HOUND SAY NEXT?"
Eli sold quite a few papers, laughing at his own ridiculousness. He even ripped one up and rolled it into balls, beginning to juggle while he shouted the EXTRY EXTRY! Maybe this gig wouldn't be so bad.

Trixie watched him as she hawked her own headlines, laughing at his absolute silliness. He was ridiculous...but cute.
She put on the charm, hardly needing to hawk at all as she pushed her chest out and flirted her way into selling paper after paper. She smiled pretty, played with her hair...the works.

Eli's tactic was slowing as people stared giving him annoyed looks and ignoring him. Ah well. He chuckled to himself anyway, and decided to try Trixie's tactics. He began to sweet talk a school girl, who giggled and bought a paper. Eli glanced across the street and winked at Trixie. She was a genius.

She sent him a smile, waggling her fingers at him in a flirtatious wave...then held up her last paper right before she handed it to a buyer.

Crap! Eli abandoned the schoolgirl and rushed back to his stack. Five more left. He made a frowny face in her direction. He was a sore loser.

She giggled, strolling across the street. "You, uh, need some help there?"

"I refuse to surrender!" Eli grabbed a paper and, for the heck of it, read off the real headline, and sold the rest of his papers. "Huh," Eli chuckled, walking over to her. "Who woulda thunk? Real headlines work too."

She laughed, clapping for him. "Well, good job, partner. I'm awfully impressed." She smirked up at him, putting her hands on her hips.

Eli smirked at her. "Yeah, partner. You know, between the two of us, nobody out there stands a chance. I'm adorable and you're sexy. We could rule the world."

She grinned at him. "Aw, well you're right about one thing. I am pretty sexy."

Eli kept going. "We would be kind rulers. I would give everyone a puppy, and we could have our own personal train that would take us all over the country."

She giggled cheerfully. "Do I get to keep one of the puppies? 'Cause no fair if I don't."

"Obviously," Eli replied, rolling his eyes. "You're the queen, you get everything." He looked her in the eyes, smiling. "So. Drinks on me! I'm feeling awfully kind today."

She giggled, looping her arm through his. "Let's go! It's five o'clock somewhere, right?"
