I turn around and look at Ponyboy who was laughing with Cherry. I look at Sodapop. The truck door burst open, I see an angry Sodapop coming out. Oh no.. Sodapop starts stomping his way up to the door. I don't know if he knew Ponyboy was here or not, but either way, Ponyboy had to hide. I smiled at Sodapop, he didn't smile back though. I shut the door, kind of feeling guilty. I rushed over back to the table, I sat next to him and smiled at Bob and Cherry.
''Who was at the door?'' Cherry asked while putting a piece of waffle in her mouth.
''Oh.. It was nobody.'' I fake chuckled.
Knock! Knock!
Bob looked around at us with a puzzled look.
''Did anyone invite someone?'' Bob asked while scooting out.
Bob started heading towards the door with Cherry. I leaned in towards Ponyboy.
''Hide somewhere. Quick!'' I whispered.
''Why?'' Ponyboy whispered.
''Sodapop's here.'' I answered.
Ponyboy's eyes went big and he bolted from the table to upstairs. I couldn't let them open the door! I ran towards Bob and grabbed his hand. I pulled him in and started twirling him around.
''Whooa!'' Bob said while twirling around.
Bob smiled as we started dancing. He suddenly dipped me and looked at me in the eyes. Good, he was distracted.
''Oh! Hey Soda!'' I heard a voice exclaim.
I turn towards the door, oh no! I totally forgot Cherry was with him! Crap!
''I saw Lilac here, is she-''
Sodapop suddenly spots me in Bob's arms in a dipped position. Sodapop's eyes got even more furious. My eyes went wide. Bob suddenly dropped me and I hit the ground really hard.
''Soda! Oh, um. Is Darry with you?'' Bob asked while scratching his head.
''No.. I came alone..'' Sodapop crossed his arms and stared him down.
I got onto my feet really quick and ran upstairs as fast as I could.
''Lil! Where are you-''
Sodapop stepped inside but Cherry stopped him.
''Sorry Soda.. No greasers aloud in here.'' Cherry said.
''No greasers? You do realize Lilac's a greaser right?'' Sodapop said while stepping out.
''I know, but I only aloud Lilac and Ponyboy in here.'' Cherry said.
''PONYBOY'S HERE?!'' Sodapop screamed.
I look downstairs, I could hear Sodapop scream that. He wanted inside really bad.
''Yes, what's your deal? Calm down will ya?'' Bob said while calming him down.
Sodapop shoved Cherry to the side. I saw him come inside, he was heading towards the stairs. I ran towards the bedroom Ponyboy was hiding in.
''Ponyboy! Hurry! Hide somewhere!'' I shouted.
''Where?!'' Ponyboy shouted.
I looked around, I suddenly spot a place. I pointed.
''The bed! HURRY!'' I screamed.
Ponyboy shrugged and ran underneath the bed. He squeezed under there, I could see he couldn't really fit. I could tell, he was a big guy. I exited the room seeing Sodapop coming upstairs. When he spotted me, his angry face was back on.
''LILAC!'' He shouted.
I started backing away while he was walking towards me.
''Yeah Soda?'' I smiled nervously.
''Why are you here? Why is Ponyboy here? And why the HECK WERE YOU IN BOB'S ARMS WHEN I CAME HERE?!'' Sodapop screamed.
''I'm here because, I wanted to um..'' I looked around. A ton of lies popped in my head for all of those questions.
''I'm here because I wanted to give Cherry and Bob a chance. And what are you talking about? Ponyboy ain't here. I was in Bob's arms because..'' Nevermind. I was stuck at this question.
How would I know what to say about the Bob situation?! Greasers don't dance with socs, it's against the rules in my family. Sodapop put his hand on his hip and started tapping his foot. I chuckled.
''How about he just forget about all of this and leave.'' I said while pushing Sodapop down the stairs.
Achoo!
My eyes go big, Sodapop turns around.
''What was that? I heard something.'' Sodapop said.
''Heard what? I heard nothing.'' I shrugged.
Achoo! Achoo! Achoo!
''Ponyboy! Shut up!'' I shouted in my head.
Sodapop started heading towards the bedroom Ponyboy was hiding in. I pulled Sodapop away and pushed him back.
''Lilac! What's going on?!'' Sodapop shouted.
''Nothing! Absolutley nothing!'' I shouted while pushing him down.
Sodapop went all the way downstairs. I pushed him out the door.
''Just go home, I'll talk to you later, alright? Thanks!'' I slammed the door.
I heard Sodapop slam the door with his fist.
''Lilac! What's going on?! Tell me!'' Sodapop shouted through the door.
I didn't reply, I just stood there.
''I know you're in there Lilac!'' Sodapop shouted.
Still, I didn't reply.
''I'm going to stay here until you tell me what's going on!'' Sodapop shouted.
I put my back against the door and slid down with a huge sigh. I couldn't believe what I just gotten myself into.
