A/N: Okay this story is just for RandomAwesomeness! She was bored so I told her I would write her a story to entertain her. I hope this entertains you too! It's more modern in some parts. SORRY IF TAYLOR SEEMS A BIT CRANKY AND JERKISH BUT SHE'LL GET BETTER I PROMISE! Alright thanks for clicking on my story! Now all you have to do is click on the button at the end telling me what you thought of it. :)
Taylor's POV
Of course I have to be woken up by loud thumps. Two-Bit and Steve have no idea how to shut a door without slamming it and Soda probably flipped Ponyboy off the mattress again. Darry probably stumbled into the door again! I swear Dally and Johnny are the only ones who never wake me up. Dally because he knows I would murder him and Jonny because well, he's too quiet in general let alone when I'm sleeping. "Come on Taylor! Get your lazy butt up!" I heard Darry call from the kitchen.
"It's not lazy I am!" I called back.
"Just get up, you smart butt!" Darry called back.
I sat up in bed and pulled on my old softball tee shirt along with my favorite pair of jeans. They have a rip in the back of the leg and on the knees but I don't care. I ran a brush through my hair and stumbled out of my room. I'm not very graceful in general, let alone when I'm tired and cranky in the morning. It also doesn't help that I have stuff all over my floor but at this point I couldn't care less.
"Sleeping beauty, you're up!" Two-Bit said loudly when I walked in the living room.
"It's my day off, why'd you have to wake me up?" I complained plopping on the couch next to Two-Bit. He's annoying, like all the time, but we are alike in so many ways. He's loud, always cracking jokes, and likes chocolate cake, a lot. As in he once ate a whole entire cake in under a half an hour. Yeah, we're alike. I have Sodapop's movie-star hair. I have Pony's interest in reading, and nothing of Darry's. My eyes are a deep chocolate brown and so is my hair. My hair has a little bit of blonde in it though since Dally one time thought it would be funny to dye my hair blonde. He didn't make it out without a broken nose that day. I'm not a lot like my brothers at all. Also, I'm the only girl in the gang. It gets annoying at times.
"Because if I didn't then Two-Bit would have woken you up and you would have broken him. I don't really need him broke," Darry said putting on his belt.
"How would she have broken me? I'm too tough for that," Two-Bit said flexing his arms like he was some type of body builder.
"Wait until that beer belly finally sets in, then we'll see whose tough," I said air quoting the word tough.
"Watch it Taylor. Him, Dally and Johnny are watching you today," Darry said opening the door. "SODA, STEVE LET'S GO!"
"I'm comin' Dar, no need to yell," Soda said hopping to the front door. He was hopping because he was attempting to put his shoe on while going out the door. Steve followed laughing at my idiotic but lovable brother. Why do they have to best friends when I like Steve? Ugh, boys.
"Bye Taylor, Two-Bit, and Pony!" Darry said walking out and hopping in the car.
"I don't need a freaking babysitter let alone three. Go get drunk at Bucks," I told Two-Bit glaring slightly. It's not his fault, its Darry's, but still.
"Who peed in your cereal?" Two-Bit asked looking at me as if I was insane. HE STOLE MY FREAKING LINE! I ALWAYS SAY THAT! I hate it when he steals my lines. He always does but I steal his in return. Oh yeah, the like number one rule. The guy's aren't allowed to swear around me. I'm only a year younger then Pony but of course that makes me the ultimate baby of the group. I always get babied unless it comes to Dallas and Steve. They are the only ones with enough sense not to baby me.
"Shut up. Oh and STOP STEALING MY FREAKING LINES! I'm going back to bed," I replied standing up.
"No can do! Darry got me on strict orders to make sure you don't go back to sleep," Two-Bit said pulling me back down on the couch.
"I'm going to the lot," I said standing up again.
"I'll go with," Two-Bit said standing up too.
"No, I can wait for Johnny," I said sitting in Darry's chair.
"Why? Don't want me tagging along?" Two-Bit said laughing and sitting back down.
"That's not it. I want to be around someone who won't give me a headache," I said rubbing my temples.
I looked up just as Dally walked in. He shut the door without slamming it, thank god!
"Let's go," Dally said looking toward me and Two-Bit.
"Where are we going?" Two-Bit asked hopping up.
"Going to go hang out with the Shepard gang," Dally replied smirking at me.
"Is Curly going to be there?" I asked pulling my hair up in a ponytail.
"And Angela," Dally replied.
"Keep her away from me. I hate that slut," I replied, disgusted.
"I don't think that will be a problem considering she died her hair blonde," Dally said smirking at Two-Bit whose eyes popped out of his head and his jaw hit the floor.
"Shut your mouth before you catch flies," I said laughing.
"Where… is… she?" Two-Bit asked when he snapped out of it.
"The park," was all Dally could get out before Two-Bit busted out through the door and probably headed to the park.
"I'll laugh so hard if he chokes on a fly trying to get there," I said.
"Come on. Pony and Johnny are already there. Curly's been wondering about you," Dally said smirking and walking out the door.
"He's my best friend I would hope he does," I said rolling my eyes and following Dally out the door.
"Yeah, yeah, yeah we all know you two are love birds," Dally said laughing.
I smacked his arm and said, "Shut up! He's my best friend and nothing more."
"Don't hit me," Dally said suddenly serious.
"Looks like someone peed in your cereal," I said under my breath. Good old Two-Bit may give me a headache but my lines will always be stolen by him, unfortunately.
"Did Two-Bit steal that from you?" Dally asked laughing.
"Yes! Finally! Someone has enough sense to know that I didn't steal it off of him! I mean seriously! He can't come up with something like that!" I said laughing.
"He probably could if he thought hard enough," Dally said hopping over the fence and into the woods.
"With what brain? And even if he could he would pollute all of Tulsa with the smoke that would be coming out of his ears," I said hopping over the fence after him.
"The sad part is that's very true," Dally said laughing as he ducked under a branch.
I hopped over a fallen branch and said, "Did she really dye her hair blonde? As in bleached it? I bet it looks worse than it already did, and I didn't think that was possible."
"Yeah, she bleached it. Why do you hate her so much anyway?" Dally said ducking under a branch.
"It's not like she spray painted whore on my locker on the first day of school, dumped her lunch ALL OVER ME, and got the Socs to freaking jump me until I passed out or anything," I replied angrily. I still remember that day. I hardly knew her but she hated me for some unknown reason.
"I still don't get how Two-Bit let that happen," Dally said hopping over another short fence and landing in the park.
"I told you they got other Socs to hold him up. They jumped him too," I replied rolling my eyes.
"What about Ponyboy?" Dally asked.
"Track," I replied.
"Hey! There's Tay!" I heard Curly say from up ahead.
"Hey Curls!" I called back. Only I'm allowed to call him that and that's only because we're best friends.
"Tay get your butt up here!" Curly called from the top of a hill.
"How about you get YOUR butt DOWN here?" I called laughing.
"Come on slow poke!" Pony called. I rolled my eyes and walked up the hill towards Curly, Pony, and Johnny.
"So what are we doing today? Please don't say we're going to the Dingo! I hate going to work on my day off," I said when I got to the top of the hill.
"Nah I think we're just chillin here for today," Curly said looking down the hill at his brother Tim.
"Good. So you guys coming to the Dingo tomorrow? I gotta work then," I said plopping down on the grass. I pulled up my legs and sat Indian style.
"Sure, why not?" Curly said.
"We got school but I'll get Two-Bit to go by there during lunch and after," Pony said.
"Yeah, I'll visit ya," Johnny added.
"If you guys bring Dallas and he starts pouring whisky in his coke again I'm getting you guys a different waitress," I said laughing.
"I remember that! He got so drunk," Curly said.
"If we bring Dally he's just going to do that anyway," Johnny replied. We always could get him to talk the most. Me, Pony, and Curly never let him just listen in.
"So let's not bring Dally," Pony added in.
"If we don't he'll kill us," Curly pointed out.
"If he shows up and tries messing with you guys I'll have a "talk" with him in the ally," I said using talk with a double meaning.
"I'd pay to see that," Curly said smirking.
"It happens all the time at the house! He messes with me and we end up wresting all over the living room floor then Steve opens up the door and we tumble down the steps. Then we roll around all over the yard, it's pretty funny when someone walks past too," I replied laughing.
"I'm just glad you guys aren't screaming at each other when you do. They're real quiet when they wrestle, 'cept for the thumping and all that. I think that's the only time Taylor is quiet," Pony said smiling.
"I feel the love!" I said hugging Pony.
"Get off of me," Pony complained.
"Now she'll never let you go," Johnny said smiling.
"Johnny's right! You shouldn't 've said that," I said hugging him tighter.
"Can you get any more embarrassing?" Pony asked trying to get out of my grip.
"Now you're in for it," Curly said.
"WHAT? PONYBOY CURTIS I AM SHOCKED AT YOU! I LOVE YOU TOO BIG BRO!" I screamed hugging him so tight he couldn't move his arms.
"What'd I tell ya?" Curly asked laughing.
