Later on that month Charlotte and Darry were sitting around his house being bored as hell. Neither of them knew what to do. It was raining out so they couldn't got camping anymore. Charlotte smiled at Darry.
"What is that smile for?" he asked. She stood up, took her hair down and dragged him outside, "Char it's raining baby."
"So, we've played in the rain before," she told him back with a smile.
"Yeah, when we were kids, come on let's go in before we get sick," Darry told her with a chuckle when he saw her motion for him to come off the porch. He shook his head no so she walked up to him, grabbed his hands and dragged him off the porch. "Baby, come on, we're gonna get sick."
"So," was all she told him and wrapped her arms around his neck and smiled. He wrapped his arms around her waist and they started to slow dance, without any music. He leaned down and kissed her and heard some cheering.
They stopped kissing and glanced over. There at the gate stood all the guys. Two-Bit was whooping and cheering like crazy, since it was the first time he saw them two kiss since a week before she left to live in a new town.
Darry smiled and kissed her more. He picked her up and carried her inside and laid her in bed, he smiled down at her, "I love you a lot baby," Darry told her softly.
"I love you too Dar-Dar," she told him and he had to chuckle.
"Dar-Dar, man I haven't heard that nickname since we were kids," Darry told her. She smiled and pulled him down for a kiss. They laid there kissing for a while.
Then there was a knock on the door followed by "Darry, we're hungry what to make for supper?" Soda called through the door. Darry and Charlotte just laid there kissing. The door opened just as Darry's hand slipped into Charlotte's pants. The door shut and Soda went to the guys.
"What's for supper?" Dallas asked.
"Um, we'll find out later, actually, I got paid from work so I'll go find something easy and fast," Dally got up and went to go to Darry's room, "I wouldn't Dallas, they are a little busy." Dally raised his eyebrows and smiled.
All the guys chuckled and followed Soda out of the house and got into the truck.
"God Darry," Charlotte panted out of breath from between the sheets.
"God Charlotte," was all Darry could say in return
Two hours later Soda and the guys came home and saw Darry and Charlotte sitting on the couch watching TV.
"Where'd you guys go?" Darry asked with a chuckle.
"store, to find something for supper since I asked you two and I walked in on what I didn't want to walk in on," Soda told him. Charlotte's face went red as she hid her face in Darry's shirt.
"Oh, um, what did you guys get?" Darry asked changing the topic.
"Hamburger and salad stuff," Soda told him and chuckled when he saw Charlotte get up to go to the bathroom and her face was a light shade of red.
"Okay, you can cook, just no colored food," Darry replied heading towards the bathroom to see if Charlotte's okay or not, he knocked on the door, "Char?"
"You can come in," she called to him. He entered the bathroom and she was sitting on the edge of the bath tub.
"You okay?" he asked kindly.
"Yeah, just tired and a little embarrassed is all," Charlotte replied with a slight smile.
"Yeah, I kinda am scared to know what he all saw," Darry replied sitting with her.
"Who knows what all he saw," Char told him. She glanced over and Darry leaned in and kissed her.
"I love you Char," he told her.
"I love you too, do I have clothes here?" she asked kindly, he nodded.
"Want me to go get you an outfit to take a shower?" he asked and she just nodded.
"I'll be in the tub soaking a little, just bring them in," she told him with a smile. He smiled back, nodded and left the room.
"Everything okay Dar?" Pony asked.
"Yeah, she's going to soak in the tub for a while," Darry told him. They all nodded, "so knock before entering." He went to his room and got Charlotte an outfit.
All the guys nodded, well the ones that were there. Darry went into the bathroom and placed her clothes on the toilet seat.
"Thanks Dar," she told him kindly.
"You're welcome, I'll be out back when you get out, I wanna get the leaves raked up some," he told her. She nodded and sighed. Darry closed the curtain before he left the room. He headed right out back to start racking the leaves.
About ten minutes later Dallas walked into the house and headed straight to the bathroom. Despite what everyone was telling him he walked in to get the lipstick that was on his shirt collar off. Dallas opened the door and got a surprise. Charlotte was in just a towel.
"Dallas, what are you doing in here?"Charlotte asked annoyed and pissed.
"Need to get Sylvia's lipstick off my shirt," he simply told her and started to wash it off.
"Next time kid, KNOCK!" she barked and took her clothes to the bedroom. Darry came in and saw a pissed off Charlotte, he went towards the room and heard Dallas and Soda talking.
"Dallas, we tried to warn you on not coming in here," Soda told Dallas. Darry got pissed about that. He went into his room and Charlotte was sitting on his bed, still in just her towel.
"What happened?" Darry instantly asked.
"I just got out to come in here, I had this towel wrapped around me and the door opened, I was hoping it was you but it was Dallas," Charlotte told him.
"Great, at least you had the towel on," he told her joining her on the bed.
"Yeah really," she simply replied. Not sure what all to say at the moment.
"Get dressed while I go have a talk with Dallas," Darry told her. She nodded and he left her just sitting there. He went over to Dallas and glared at him, "I swear to God Dallas you better tell me why you went into the bathroom when the damn door was shut?"
"To get the lipstick off my shirt," Dallas told him in reply.
"Well next time you better fucking knock or wait, understand, I am not having you walk in on Char again, you do, that'll be your last time here for a while," Darry told Dallas, wanting to beat the hell out of Dallas right there but decided against it.
That was until he heard, "we tried to tell him to stay out of there,"from Steve.
Darry shoved Dallas to the wall, "I should beat the living day lights out of you right now Dallas, my house my rules, learn them and keep them in mind, first rule, No smoking, second Rule, if bathroom door is closed KNOCK before entering it, hell that goes for any door but the front door, and lastly no more beer in the house unless I buy it and no one under twenty will drink it," Darry shouted and felt a hand on his shoulder. He glanced and saw Charlotte standing there.
"Let me talk to him, please?" Char asked. Darry glared at Dallas but left him, "Dally, you honestly should know to knock right?"
"Yeah?" Dally told her.
"Then next time please knock, you are more of a brother to me and I know you hate me for leaving like I did, but kid, next time you see me in a towel I will punch you," she told him and he just nodded.
"I ain't mad at you for leaving, just mad you never said goodbye, hell Char, you're more of a sister to me then anything,"Dallas half shouted at her, "Sorry." he left in a hurry, no one knew where he was going. Char sighed as she watched him leave like that. She went back inside and sat down on the couch next to Darry.
"he had tears in his eyes," Darry whispered in her ear.
"I'll talk to him more later," she simply told him and left it as is. Darry just nodded and went to the kitchen. A few moments later he returned with two cups of coffee. He handed Char hers then sat down and they all sat in silence.
