Yes, I'm not dead! That means y'all get an update.

Disclaimer: Again I don't own the Outsiders, who's making up all those lies about me!

Darry's PoV:

I was sitting in my arm chair, Soda and Steve were loungin' on the couch, Pony was sitting on Soda's side reading a book- I tell yah' that kid does nothin' but read- and Johnny and Two- Bit were sitting on the floor in front of the Tv. When all of a sudden we heard shouting outside.

None of us knew what was goin' on, but we did all hear Johnny's name being mentioned a few times, then it took us all a minute to recognize the voices it was Dallas and Johnny's father. I looked over at Johnny and he seemed pretty uncomfortable. So I stood up and headed for the door.

"Don't worry Johnny I'll get em to stop." Just as I was about to reach the door knob I heard Johnny speak.

"Wait Darry!... I-I'll go." I turned to face him and shook my head.

"Na Johnny I don't think you wanna do that."

"No it-it's fine." I wanted to tell him again that he shouldn't, but I stayed quiet and let him go out the door.

Two-Bit

If it weren't that this was serious, I'd find the situation inside the house hilarious. Darry was pretending to read his news paper on his arm chair, but we all knew he was eaves droppin', shoot! we all were! Me and Pony had our ears pressed against the door, while Soda and Steve were standing in front of the window listening and occasionally peeking outside.

To tell you the truth, I almost fell for what Johnny's parents were sayin' to him. I had to remind myself it was all a load of bull**** and even if it was true, it was too little too late, Johnny's gone through too much with those two ass holes. Hell would have to freeze over before we let them take Johnny out of Tulsa and away from us.

Darry

I have to admit that I'm no better than the rest of the gang. All of us eaves dropping and what not. But I have to! I need to be aware of what's going on. I was straining to hear the conversation.

"Do you really believe Johnny would forgive yo-" I couldn't hear anything after that.

"Two-Bit, hey Two-Bit, what's Dally saying?" I was whispering, just to make sure they wouldn't hear us from the outside.

"Nothin, he stopped talkin." But thats impossible! Dallas never shuts up!

I quickly stood up, shoved Steve and Soda away from the window and peeked out from between the curtains.

"Hey!"

"What gives Darry?" yelled an upset Soda and an angry Steve. I ignored them and looked at Dallas's face. He looked panicked. He had his fists clenched tight, and he was staring at the ground. Then his head quickly shot to the side and he looked at Johnny. His bottom lip quivered.

"J-Joh-Johnny.." Now he was even stuttering? What's goin' on?

I rushed to the door and pushed Two-Bit and Pony over. They both fell to the floor with a thud and groaned.

"Damn it Darry." Spat Two- Bit. I ignored him too and swung the door open wide after taking a deep breath.

"I'm sorry Mr. and Mrs. Cade, but Johnnny and Dallas need to come back inside now." Johnny's dad gave me a look.

"Why?" asked Mrs. Cade, I racked my brain for a good excuse.

"Johnny's under a lot of stress right now.. so I need him to come back inside. You can both return tomorrow if you want, but right now you have to leave." Now Johnny's dad was glaring at me. "Please, Johnny is going through a lot right now a-" he cut me off.

"Fine! We'll be back tomorrow." He motioned for his wife to follow him and they both got into their pick-up truck.

"Good bye Johnny." Said Mrs. Cade, as she looked out at us from her seat in the truck. In a few seconds the pick-up was out of sight, I looked at Dallas. He wore the same expression and he was still looking at Johnny.

"Johnny?" Johnny returned Dallas' gaze.

"W-what Dal?"

"Would you go with them?" Johnny took in a sharp breath, as if he didn't expect Dallas to ask that. Next he took a step back.

"D-Dal, I-I.." Dallas un-clenched his fists and he looked... broken, his face dropped and he bit his lip. Johnny took a step towards him.

"Dally.. I-" Dallas raised his hand infront of him and shook his head repeatedly. Then he let his hand fall to his side, he closed his eyes tight and then he took a shaky breath.

"Y-you don't have to say anything Johnny." Dallas looked over at me.

"I-I'm not stayin' over today Dare, I'm gunna go to Bucks. Crash there." Before I could say anything Dallas started walking off. Johnny was gunna go after him, so I held him back.

"Let's go back inside Johnny." He took a second before nodding. By then all the other guys were at the door. They all ran and got back to the way they were before Dallas and Johnny's father had come.

End of chapter! I know it was all over the place, worst chapter ever! and there was extreme OOCness, I just wanted to show Dallas's sensitive side and.. yeah. Review please! Johnny decides his fate in the next chapter,..kinda. Who do you think he should go with?
