Chapter 53
"So did you guys beleive the note?" Tim asked as us after we got inside the house. Tim sat down in Darry's chair. He was still holding Alexis, and she still had his finger.
"Yeah, why?" I asked hesitantly.
"It's just a joke I'm playing on Darry!" Tim told us all excited.
"Why would you want to play a prank on Darry?" It was Dally's turn to be hesitant.
"I don't know! It just seemed like fun!" Tim told us beginning to laugh.
"But, where'd you get the baby?" I asked.
"Oh, she's my cousin. My uncle wanted to go to the bar, so I'm watching her for the afternoon." he informed us.
"Wait you uncle left... You know what, never mind! Tim why don't you just go home!" I said.
"Yeah, that sounds like a good idea, Tim. Get outta here!" Dally commanded him.
"Oh, come one guys! Please just let me trick Darry!" Tim pleaded with us.
"NO! Seriously, Tim you need to leave!" I said forcefully.
"Okay, okay. Fine I'll go! It was going to be so funny though! You sure missed out!" he said finally defeated.
He left and Dally went into the kitchen and got us both a coke and he sat back down on the couch next to me and lit a cigarette.
"Why do you smoke?" I asked him.
" I don't know. I've never really thought about it," he responded. "Is it really like kissing an ashtray?"
"Hmm, I don't remember!" I said playfully. I leaned over and kissed Dally, when I pulled away I said,"No, not really! Kissing you is definetly not like kissing an ashtray!"
Just then everyone else walked in the door, well everyone save Darry since he was still at work.
"So what's going on?" Carmen asked.
"Nothing. Just chilling like Bob Dylan!" I said.
Me and Carmen laughed but everyone else was looking at us blankly. How could I have been so stupid? There isn't a Bob Dylan yet!
"Oh, he's a guy we used to go to school with! People at our school would always say that because it rhymes!" I pathetically lied.
"Okay, whatever," Pony said. He sounds like a girl, I thought
"I'm bored. What should we do now?" Carmen asked.
"Gosh, you have a shorter attention span than my sister's hamster!" Two-bit said.
"Oh, and like yours is any better!" Carmen retorted.
"I never said it was!" Two-bit said raising his hands in a kind of truce.
"Lets go see a movie!" Dally suggested looking right at me, but talking to the whole group.
I smiled and said,"Yeah, lets go!"
Everyone else agreed, so we headed out for the movie just as Darry got home. We decided to be nice and wait for Darry to be ready. Fifteen minutes later, we left for the drive-in.
