Skittery and Meg were walking hand in hand one day in Central Park. He smiled to her and said, "Hey Meg, I have a question to ask you. She said, "Shoot." He said, "Do you have any family here?" She laughed. He said, "What's so funny?" She replied, "They're all in Colorado, except for a couple relatives here in New York." He said, "Like who?"
   Suddenly two guys tackled her and what looked like started hurting her. Skittery suddenly dived in a pulled the two guys off of her. Skittery looked at the two guys. It was the Delancy Brothers. He said, "What the hell you two!?" Meg started laughing when she got up. Skittery said, "Are those two goons harassing you again!?" Oscar spoke, "What are you talking about newsie?" Meg said, "It's all right Skittery." He looked at the Delancy brothers then at her. He said, "But aren't they the ones who tried to kill you the other night?" She laughed and said, "You wouldn't let me explain then." Morris spoke up, "Meg, what are you doing hanging around with this newsie?" She said, "He's my boyfriend so lay off." Morris and Oscar laughed. Skittery was still confused. He said, "But the other night.." She said, "That other night where you hit them with the sling shot, you didn't have to." Oscar said, "That was you?!" Meg said, "Calm down Oscar. Now Skittery, you said you wanted to know who my family was." Skittery looked at her, then at the Delancy brothers, then back at her. He said, "You're...related to them?" She nodded. He looked at them and said, "H-how?" She replied, "Well, umm..those are my cousins." Skittery was surprised. More like shocked. He said, "So your uncle is Mr. Weasel?" Oscar said, "It's Weisel to you!" Meg giggled. Skittery whispered to her, "You're related to two scabbers and a jerk?" She nodded. She said, "Ya, that's my family."
   Morris said, "So let me get this straight, if you two marry..then we'll be related to a newsie?" She laughed and said, "Of course!" Oscar said, "Come on Meg, you can do better." She said, "I'm fine with this one." Skittery said, "Wait, Meg! Those two killed a friend of mine!" Morris laughed and said, "Do you have any proof?" Skittery was about to speak, but then shut up. Oscar said, "That's what I thought." Meg replied, "All right you three, I want you to make a promise to me." They all said, "Anything." She replied, "Don't kill each other, all right? I love you three a lot and it would hurt me to see one of yous hurt." The three looked at each other. Oscar and Morris said, "All right.." then she looked at Skittery and said, "Well?" he replied, "All right."
   At the lodge house, Skittery was telling the newsies of Meg's relations to the scabbers. Jack spoke up, "You're telling me that someone as lively as Meg is related to a bunch of hoodlums?" Skittery nodded. Specs said, "Meg is related to the people who killed Ruth?" Skittery replied, "I know...it's really difficult." Racetrack said, "So, what are you going to do about it?" Skittery said, "I....I don't know. Nothing I guess." Jack said, "You should pound em Skittery!" He shook his head. He said, "I promised Meg I wouldn't hurt them." Jack rolled his eyes. Bumlets replied, "Look, Skits, what if THEY pound you?" He answered, "They won't, they also promised." Jack said, "You can never trust a scabber Skittery. Who knows what they're plotting right now!"
   Meanwhile, Oscar was punching Morris until his mouth bled and he had bruises. Morris kept saying, "Come on! Harder!" and Oscar punched him one last time when he knocked Morris to the ground. Oscar said, "All right bro, my turn now!" Morris got up slowly and was wobbling a bit. He then leaned against a wall and said, "Give me a second." Oscar shook his brother and said, "Look! If we want to break up them two we HAVE to make it seem like he was trying to kill us!" Morris replied, "But they're happy. I can't stand to see Meg upset." Oscar then slapped his brother. He yelled, "Look Morris! Do you want to be related to a newsie like Skittery!?" Morris shook his head. Oscar than said, "It's better to see her upset and get over it then to be related to him!" Morris replied, "You're right." He then punched Oscar in the nose and he started bleeding. Oscar said, "That's it! Come on! Give me some more!"
   About ten minutes later, Skittery was walking by himself when he happened to see Mr. Weasel walking eating an apple. Skittery shuddered to think that this was Meg's uncle. His niece. Mr. Weasel saw him and said, "Hey! Bumlets!" Skittery kept walking though. Weasel said, "Bumlets!" Skittery turned around and said, "Are you talking to me?" Weasel said, "You're name is Bumlets right?" He shook his head and said, "It's Skittery." He said, "Ok, Skittery, let me talk to you real quick." Skittery said, "Umm, I can't right now." Weasel replied, "Look, it's going to be quick!" Skittery and sighed and walked over to him. He said, "What do you need?" Weasel said, "Look, my nephews told me about you and my niece." Skittery replied, "Ya, so?" Weasel sighed and said, "Look, I care about my niece a lot, and I can't stand to see her hurt." Skittery replied, "Neither can I." Weasel said, "Good, because if I find out that you hurt her, I will literally rip you apart!" Skittery said, "Don't worry Weasel, I care too much about her to do that." Weasel said, "Good." he then patted Skittery's shoulder and walked away. Skittery was dumbfounded. He said, "I've never seen this side of Weasel."
   Meanwhile, Oscar and Morris found Meg and ran to her. She saw them all beat up. She said, "What happened!?" Oscar coughed and said, "It...it was that BOYFRIEND of yours." Meg gasped. She said, "No, it couldn't have been." Morris then fell to the ground and held his stomach, groaning. Meg started crying. Morris looked at her and looked back. He felt horrible. Oscar said, "It wasn't our fault either. He just wanted to start something because we're scabbers." She rubbed her eyes. She said, "I....I have to break up with him if this is going to happen." Morris said, "No, please don't!" Oscar looked behind him and gave him "the look" and immedietly Morris shut up. She said, "When did this happen?" Oscar said, "Just a couple of minutes ago." Meg then started running to the lodge house.
   Skittery was already there playing chess with Snipeshooter and telling the Newsies of what happened between him and Weasel. Suddenly Meg ran in and saw Skittery. He stood up and smiled. He said, "Hey sweetheart!" She then walked up to him and said, "Don't you dare 'sweetheart' me!" she then slapped him. He said, "What was that for?" She replied, "I saw what you did to Oscar and Morris!" He said, "What are you talking about?" She replied, "You promised not to hurt my cousins and you did! I don't know if I can trust you now." Skittery said, "But I didn't!" She said, "Another lie." He said, "Meg, I don't know what you're talking about!" She said, "Stop it! Just...stop it! We're through, all right?" she then ran out crying. Skittery was shocked. He said, "But I didn't do anything to her cousins!" Jack said, "Looks to me that Oscar and Morris planned for this to happen."
   Meg was running and crying when she ran into Specs. He said, "Whoa, what's wrong Meg?" She said, "I don't want to talk about it." He said, "No no, what's wrong?" she said, "I said I don't want to talk about it!" she started running again but he grabbed her hand and kept her there. He said, "Look, you're my friend and I'm not leaving you alone until I know what's wrong." She sighed and said, "Fine.."
   Meanwhile though, Oscar and Morris were walking to their home with Mr. Weasel. Weasel saw them and said, "What the hell happened to you!?" Oscar laughed and said, "This is the most brilliant plan we ever set up." Weasel grinned and said, "Do tell." Oscar said, "Morris and I beat each other up and told Meg that Skittery did it to us. So I bet you that by now they're not seeing each other anymore." Morris looked down ashamed. Weasel smiled and said, "Oh boys..." he then slapped them upside the head and frowned. He said, "That is the stupidest idea you two ever came up with!" Oscar said, "But uncle..." He said, "Listen here..I talked to Skittery this afternoon...and you two just broke up a great relationship!"
   At the bar where Specs and Meg were, they were dead drunk. They were blubbering a conversation together. Suddenly Specs said, "Meg, I love you." she burst out laughing. He said, "I really REALLY love you." She said, "I l-love you too man." He then leaned over and kissed her passionetly. He said after kissing, "Hey! LET'S get married." She said, "What a....splendid idea!" they then walked out of the bar, drunk.
   The next morning, Meg woke up first in bed next to Specs. She gasped. She then looked under her covers to see she was naked. She screamed, but then held her head. She said, "Oh my gawd my head is pounding." Specs woke up and saw her. He then screamed and looked under the covers to see he was naked as well. She said, "Specs...what did we do last night?" He said, "All I remember is that we were at a bar..then we left..and that's it." She then twiddled a ring on her finger. She said, "I remember we went some where else too..but.." she then looked at her hand. She said, "I think we went to a chapel." He then looked at his hand. He said, "Oh sh.." she then interrupted, "I think we're married." she said. He said, "Does that mean.." She said, "Ya...it means my new name is...Meg Specs and I'm your wife."
