I was that age once...
I don't own the Outsiders!
Dally looked at Pony from the stool he was sitting on.
"It all started when I was ten. I had just moved back from New York, and I got hit with cupids arrow. Her name was Amy and she was a knockout! She had long brown hair, and she was tall. Her eyes were the most beautiful color I had ever seen, they were light grey with specks of ice blue! She was quite a bit older than me, she was sixteen. That was the only girl I fell head over hells for, so I want a date with her!"
"Yeah yeah, we get it Romeo! How did you ask her out?" Two bit chuckled
"I didn't know what to do, so I ask the only respectable lady I knew."
"Who was that?" Pony ask
"Your mom, who else would it be?!" He shouted
"He didn't let us know that he liked her" Darry said with a smirk
"I knew y'all would never let me live it down! I was smitten with her, back when I really cared about people!"
"We get it! You really liked her, how did you ask out?!" Pony was getting annoyed.
"Mrs.C told me I just needed to practice what I was going to say to her. I figured, I needed to look older to get an older girl. So I stole some nice clothes from a fancy shop, then I came back here and I got cleaned up. Then for once, I greased my hair back and I even borrowed some of Mr. C aftershave!"
He had to pause, so he could be heard over the sound of their laughing.
"I ask Mrs.C to sit on the couch, and to act like Amy. She was loud and spunky, most of the time. I waltzed in and stood over by her an in my deepest voice 'hey baby, don't you want to ditch this place for a date with me?' Then at the worst moment, the guys came home!"
"And we really thought he was hitting on mom, we had never seen him act like that!" Soda said
"And your mom said with a sassy tone 'I would like to honey, but I'm married!' I was horrified, but that didn't stop me from asking Amy out! So I went to the Dingo that Saturday and I found her talking to a group of girls. Just like I practiced, I sauntered over and looked her straight in the eye and said ' hey baby, don't you want to ditch this place for a date with me?!"
"She said 'go find your momma kid, I've got better things to do than babysit!' I got shot down and I was mad so I yelled at her 'well fine! Your not as great as you think you are, so get off your high horse!' And then I heard a guy behind me yell 'you messing with my girl?!'
"I saw this huge guy running toward me, he was built like a brick wall. I could tell he was mad! I didn't carry any weapons, and I knew he would bet me to a pulp in a fist fight. So I did the dumbest, most idiotic thing, I ran from him."
"Did you get away?" Johnny ask quietly
"No I didn't Johnnycake. He beat me up, then he thru me in the trash can. Everyone was laughing at me when I got out, I just went on home. Amy and her boyfriend had left anyway, and I was humiliated. That was the only time I ran from a fight, and the only time I wasn't armed. I learned my lesson, even though I didn't get a date."
"Do you ever get a date, the first time you ask? Because, you and Soda didn't!"
"Sure you can! I did!" Two Bit explained
"How?!" Pony asked
"Well get me a slice of cake, and I will tell you!"
