"Dad! You are the biggest Scrooge ever. You can trust me besides they are not like my old friends."
Mr. Motel looked down at his daughter and saw that he was getting the puppy eyes. He couldn't stand the puppy eyes but he would not give up either.
"All I am saying is that you are fifteen and I don't know if I could trust you and your friends together, alone, one night while your mother and I are out."
"Aaagh!" and give up in frustration, Marcia stomped up the stairs into her room and slammed the door. Once inside the room she noticed that her hair was messy again.
It always seemed like her was messy. When it was brushed it was beautiful but when it wasn't it was like a rat's nest. It was night black and curly. Usually it was down to the middle of her back but she had it cut recently so it was down to her shoulders.
"Maybe that's why all the boys like me," she would think to herself. Marcia was one of the most popular girls in school. She was perfect. Perfect diamond white teeth and tanned, smooth skin. She was always being asked out by boys but she always turned them down. She only liked one boy and he was probably the biggest loner in school. He was handsome though. Pale black eyes like coal and with smooth black hair. He was smaller than Marcia but he looked pretty strong from the tone of his body. His name was Paul and was the same age as Marcia.
She picked up her book and started reading it again.
It was called "The Outsiders" by S.E Hinton. It was about a boy named Ponyboy and he was in a gang called "The Greasers" and they were always having problems with their enemies called "The Socks".
She was really getting into the book when her bedroom door opened up and her dad stuck his head in.
"Marcia?" he asked gently.
Marcia only ignored him. Sometimes she hated her father because he could never trust her. Just because last year she was hanging out with some bad kids and got caught drinking and driving with them in her parent's car.
"Marcia?" he asked again.
She looked up into his eyes with anger and he said "You're allowed."
