Steve Randle was done. He was just done with all of this SHIT! Yes. Johnny and Dallas died. But that happened TWO MONTHS AGO! GET OVER IT! He wasn't asking for everyone to be happy that they were gone but really! Don't let to rule your life! Look at the kid! He is just spending all his time in his room, locked away doing God knows what. Sure, his best buddy is gone but he needs to live. Doesn't he know how much he is worrying his brothers? Glory! All that kid does is have his head in the clouds! Doesn't that mean he is thinking? Why doesn't he think about what this is doing to his brothers?

His brothers. Steve was so angry with Soda. He needed to live! Yes. Sandy left him. She for PG and hightailed it off to Florida! Good for her. Soda needs to forget about it! He has all those girl swarming him at work, why doesn't he ask one out?

Steve was just done. That is why he made a plan. Some people call it butting in. Clearly they have NOT seen how depressed Soda was been. Steve was talking matters into his own hands. He was going to be a good best buddy and set his friend up on a date. He wouldn't be alone though. (That might be "too much" for him...) He was going on a double date with Steve and Evie. That only problem... Yeah... Soda didn't know this just yet. Hey! It wasn't his fault! Steve just didn't really know how to tell him. Soda tends to get a bit... defensive... whenever you talk about him dating. He set him up with a real nice girl though. She was Evie's cousin who was staying with her from the summer. Her name was Quinn, she was 16 and Evie said was a really looker. Steve wasn't to sure about that last part seeing as he had never met her but Evie assured him that Soda would love her and that was good enough.

"Hey Buddy!" Steve called walking over to Soda by the gas pumps. The girls had FINALLY left and Soda seemed to be in a good mood today. He was hoping he could break the news and not get hit by anything. Soda turned to him, that good old grin on his face. It was the first real one he'd seen in a while.

"What's going on Steve-o?" Steve playfully hit Soda on the shoulder and laughed at the silly nick name. Soda had been calling him that since grade school. You bring jell-o to school ONCE...

"I was thinking out could come with me to Margret's tomorrow night." Steve told him. Soda sighed.

"Steve, that's a date place. Wouldn't it be kind of weird..."

"Naw man! We wont be alone." Steve started to fiddle with his hands... Maybe Soda wont freak out.

Maybe he'll think it's a good idea...

"What do you mean..." Soda asked, narrowing his eyes.

"Well I'll be with Evie and you can go with Quinn." He told him. Soda let out a loud sigh and rolled his eyes.

"Steve. I don't want to go on a date." Steve groaned.

"Come on man! Just this once! I am BEGGING you." Soda sighed.

"Fine." He told him after a while, "Who is this Quinn girl anyways?" Steve smiled.

"Cousin of Evie's. She's here for the summer. You lucked out man, Evie says she's a real looker!" Soda smiled at him.
"I believe I'll be the judge of that!"

…

Quinn Saunders couldn't possible be more angry with her cousin. She couldn't believe the nerve Evie had! Evie had, naturally, heard all about Quinn's relationship with Brad. Brad was a sweet guy. He was all Quinn could ever want and then some. He was just a few inches taller then her 5'6" with short brown hair and green eyes shades darker than her own light green. They were the schools it couple and everything was great. That was until they broke up two weeks ago. Brad had cheated on her with some girl from out of town. Quinn had called Evie up first thing to talk about what had happened. She was crushed and everything seemed to remind her of him. That was when Evie told her to come up for the summer, to get her mind off of things. Quinn had only been there for a week now but was still happier than she had been in Texas with Brad. Though that seemed to change pretty fast.

If Quinn had known her darling cousin was going to set her up she never would have come. She wasn't ready! She had only broken up with him two weeks ago. She needed time to heal, she had been going with him for 15 months! That takes time to forget! She looked horrible too. She had been eating ice cream and laying around, she wasn't ready for a date. Her dirty blonde hair would take hours to fix, her skin was in desperate need of some moisturizer, her nails were chipped and she didn't have any nice cloths! You know what that worst part was? That date? Was only a day away. How would she going to get ready? Better yet, how was she going to act attractive? She couldn't even go an hour without crying over Brad. Goodness she was pathetic. She needed to move on. Brad was probably already out there, kissing another girl.

"Evie!" Quinn yelled down the stairs.

"Yea?" She called back up.

"Will you come up here?" The blonde asked her dark haired cousin. Said cousin soon appeared in the door way of the guest room where Quinn was staying.

"What?" Evie asked again. Quinn took a deep breath.

"I was your help." She told her. Evie smiled at her, giving a knowing look though still asking,

"With what?" Quinn fingered her hair and looked down at her cloths before turning back to her cousin.

"That boy I'm seeing tomorrow, Sodapop, I want to look great." Evie smiled.

"Honey, that is going to take a lot of work."

"Good thing we still have a day then." Quinn laughed. Evie laughed along with her and grabbed her purse.

"Come on!" She called heading downstairs. A confused Quinn followed.

"Where are we going?" She asked.

"To the mall! You need a new outfit!" Quinn groaned and followed her out the door.

What was she getting herself into?
