Chapter thirteen:

I walked silently into the Curtis's house to find that only Darry and Sodapop were still awake. They looked up as I walked in. I hung my head and grabbed my key,

"Kadee what's wrong?" Soda asked from the couch,

"Bad night"

"Have you been crying?"

"A little" I replied then left the house and walked over to mine. I unlocked the door and lay down on my bed, falling asleep fully clothed.

At two thirty-five there was loud rapping on my door. I walked over and unlocked the door to find a very drunk Two-bit.

"I need somewhere to stay" He said his words very slurred. I helped him in and then quickly locked the door and helped him into my bed. He fell asleep as soon as his head hit the pillow. I laughed silently at his sleeping form as I climbed in next to him, glad that he left enough room for me to sleep on.

I awoke to the sound of a groan and a thump,

"Kadee? We didn't you-know?" I looked over the side of the bed to find Two- bit lying on the ground, holding his head,

"No of course not! You came here drunk and you obviously needed somewhere to sleep and since the couch is riddled with moths I thought the bed might be better"

"Oh. Well that's good then. Well can I have a quick shower?"

"Of course, you'll see it if you walk around, I'm going back to sleep" I groaned and fell asleep again.

When I awoke next the house was quiet and I guessed that Two-bit had left. I clambered out of bed, grabbed some clothes and showered. Fifteen minutes later she emerged feeling refreshed and well awake. I put my dirty clothes on my bed and grabbed some money from my bag, which was left over. The man said I could get food for a week and do other extras, like cleaning my clothes. I decided to clean my clothes on Monday so I didn't waste my money. I walked out of the house and I was walking down my driveway when I spotted Dally going towards the Curtis's house. Dally spotted me and walked over to me,

"Kadee, did I say something to you last night to make you upset"

"Yes you did, but don't worry about it. You go on liking whoever you want and I'll do the same" Dally looked at me funny. I shook my head,

"Just don't worry about it ok?"

"Ok…where are you going now?"

"To get some breakfast and then look for a job"

"Oh well I'll see you later" I nodded and walked away from him, willing myself not to cry. I walked to the shopping centre and had my hot cakes in silence. I finished off the last of my hot cakes and looked around the mall for any help that was wanted. I walked past a café and saw the 'HELP WANTED' sign. I quickly walked in,

"I am here for the help wanted," I said to the girl behind the counter.

"Go through that door and then it's the third door on the left" I nodded in thanks and walked into the third door on the left.

"I have come here for the job"

"Oh yes. Have a seat. Now how many hours could you work?"

"As many as you like"

"What about four o'clock to six o'clock"

"Well I could work full time from seven o'clock to six o'clock"

"Are you sure?"

"Yes. What will I have to do?"

"Just wipe tables, take orders to people, serve people"

"How much do I get paid an hour?"

"Seven twenty, tax deducted"

"When do I start?"

"Tomorrow. So you are going to arrive at seven?"

"Yes. Thank you so much" And with that I walked out of the office and away from the shopping centre.

A/N: Sorry about that being so bad…It'll get better I hope!
