Running around the lodging house, Peanut was going crazy from sugar. Not his fault someone left some candy around. So, he was running through the halls of the lodging house, "Scout!!!! Scout!!!!" He was not short of energy, even for his small stature he could be an unstoppable force of energy. Besides, who wouldn't be a bundle of energy after a while? Skidding across the floor, he slammed into a wall, falling down. He scurried back up, running towards Scout's room. He did have to look for her after all. Why wouldnt he? While running he tried to keep from stumbling due to the long pant legs.
Banging on her door, he shouted, "Scout!!! Scout guess what!!! Guess what!!! Guess what!!!" he didn't know if he was being annoying or not, be he had to let Scout know! He just had to! If he didnt, Peanut didn't know what he'd do! Maybe he could tell Patches, but that wouldn't do well now would it? No it would not! Besides, this was SUPER important. It felt likea matter of life and death! What if it was!? Then he certainly would make sure Scout knew of it, immediately! |

Sitting in her room Scout sighed and leaned back in her chair, letting her head fall back she closed her eyes and imagined herself far away from New York. She loved her Newsies, she really did, but why did everything have to be so hard? Even with the money that Chance had given them they were still barely able to keep this place open. What would happen if the house closed down, all her kids would go to the streets or an orphanage, or even the refuge. And that was not going happen not to her Newsies. Wiping her face with her dirty calloused hand she bit her bottom lip in stress. But then again she was always stressed.
"Scout!!!! Scout!!!!"[/b]
Scout couldn’t help but jump and gasp in shock at the sound of her name being called. It sounded like Peanut, and by the way he was yelling for her he was either extremely hyper or scared about something.
"Scout!!! Scout guess what!!! Guess what!!! Guess what!!!"[/b]
Pushing herself off her chair she walked over to the door in quick strides and opened it with a flick of her wrist as Peanut banged on it. “Whoa there killer, where’s the fire?” She said giving the little boy a small smile, he looked about ready to burst with some sort of information for her. “What’s gotten you all worked up?” She said laughing at his eagerness.

Peanut took a big breath, seeing Scout, and answering quickly, "I saw, I saw, I saw, I SAW.... I forgot. But it was huuuuuuuuuuuuuge. Like, really big! I swear it was! Oh, and someone put Strawberry Jelly in the food cabinet, I think that reaches a whole new level of disgusting. What do you think? I think, there should be more peanut butter," he nodded his head vigorously, "Cause peanut butter is better. Really better. It's not all sticky and everything. That and it tastes better and it's in a bunch of food and yea, it's really good!"
Beaming, he looked up at Scout, grinning like a maniac. "I know I'll remember what I was gonna tell you soon too! I know I will! OH!!! I KNOW WHAT IT IS! I lost a tooth," Peanut said, pointing to a gap in his mouth, "Is that good or bad? Cause I still wanna be able to eat! I mean, what if-" he gasped, "WHAT IF I CANT EAT PEANUT BUTTER ANYMORE!?! OH SCOUT WHAT DO I DO!?! Cause I can't give up on peanut butter! That's like saying you cant let Joey the Sock Monkey dance! Cause he can!"
Grabbing Joey the Sock Monkey in a hug, he said, "I cant give up on Peanut Butter, otherwise, I'm not Peanut! I'm just a person! I can't be just a person! No way no how!" Peanut definitely had too much sugar. Now the question was, who gave it to him? That was what he needed answered himself. Heck he didn't even know you could get hyper off of sugar, he was seven for crying out loud. You couldn't expect him to know everything, of course, if he did, who knows what would happen.
