Steve carefully swung the car into the driveway. Darry was standing on the porch still clutching his shoulder. Two-Bit and Soda help Tim out of the car. They carefully laid him on the couch in the Curtis living room. Raleigh sat on the floor beside him. Tim started to shiver so she pulled a blanket over him. Outside it began to thunder and lightning. They heard rainfall. Raleigh glanced up at Dally, who now had an ice package wrapped around his fist. He smiled at her hearing the rain. She had always loved to go stand in the rain. It had been a rainy night the night she had given him… that was so long ago he thought. Did she even remember? Suddenly, Raleigh leapt up and went outside. She went and stood in the middle of the Curtis' front yard. She held her head up toward the sky and let the rain soak her completely. Darry stood in the doorway watching her. She was so beautiful, so perfect. Why did she want someone like Tim? He would just hurt her and then leave?
"What are you doing?" Darry jumped he didn't know that Raleigh had seen him staring at her. He looked at her with an expressionless face.
"I said what are you doing?" She repeated to him. Hoping for an answer. She got one but it wasn't what she expected.
"What does it look like I am doing, Raleigh? I am watching you stand in the rain like a lunatic. I am also getting pissed off and that ain't helping my shoulder." He said with fire burning in his blue eyes. He knew he shouldn't have said that. He saw the shock in her eyes. The shock that quickly turned to anger. She walked toward him with her eyes narrowed.
"What did I do?" She asked with a little touch of an attitude. Darry sighed and began to go in the house. Raleigh grabbed his arm and spun him around.
"You can't just come out here, call me a lunatic, tell me I pissed you off, and then leave. Sit your ass down here and talk to me." She said with extreme calmness. Her eyes were telling on her though. He could see the pain and hurt of what he said. He sat beside her on the porch.
"What did I do to you, Darry?" She asked with complete unawareness that she had hurt him. Darry saw it but still didn't give in. Could he tell her? Would she blow him off and go to Tim? He decided it was worth a chance.
"Raleigh, I thought you liked me. You kissed me. I mean I felt that kiss. I know you can't tell me that you didn't feel something in that kiss. Then, you hang all over Tim and you don't even want to dance with me. You asked him for forgiveness. Well, Raleigh, I was there too. I fought too. I… don't know why I am even bothering telling you this." He said all this with his head down. When he looked up at Raleigh, he was surprised to see her smiling with tears running down her face. She got up and went to stand in the yard once more.
"Raleigh, what the hell are you doing?" He said getting up and going over to her. He grabbed her arms and spun her around. Her face was completely soaked with tears and rain.
"Darry, I never liked Tim. I never will. His stomach was split open. He walked me into the dance. I love you. I always have. I always will. You don't know how much you scared me when I first met you." She crumpled and sat on the wet ground. Darry kneeled beside her.
"Darry, I wouldn't have kissed you if I didn't like you. I will leave if you want me too. Just tell, I will do anything to make you happy." Darry looked at her. The anger that was once in his eyes was replaced with fear. Fear of losing something he didn't know he could ever have again. Raleigh was holding on to Darry's arms while she was telling him this. He simply picked her up, went back to the porch with her. He held her for a moment.
"Raleigh, I guess I am like the rain. Falling for you. I guess that is why you like the rain, it's always going to fall for you. Just like me I have fallen for you." Darry said this with a smile. Raleigh looked at him. She was hoping for him to kiss her. He did. It was a sweet, slow passionate kiss. Her hands went through his wet hair and his wrapped around her waist. They were suddenly interrupted by a voice. An angry voice.
"Darry, what in the f***ing hell do you think you are doing?" It was Dally. He had seen them kiss. Raleigh quickly pulled away.
"Dally, what is your problem? We were just kissing." Darry replied with confusion in his voice. Dally grabbed Raleigh's arm and pulled her away from Darry.
"Come on, kid. Let's go home." Dally said as he drug Raleigh with him.
"Now wait a damn minute! Who in the hell do you think you are, telling me what to do like that? You are not my brother." Raleigh spat the words at Dally. He looked truly hurt. Then his expression actually changed to hate. Raleigh had only seen him give that look to other people, not to her. He had never looked at her like that.
"No, I am not your brother. If I was Scott, Darry would be in the hospital right now and I would be in jail. Your brother told me to take care of you and that is what I am doing. You don't need a greaser like Darry, or me, or any of us." As Dally spoke Raleigh looked at him with confusion on her face.
"Dally, what are you talking about? Did you just get drunk or something?" She asked him with a helpless smile. He just shook his head at her, then grabbed her arm. She shook him off and turned him around to face her.
"Dallas, what's wrong? It was just a kiss. Calm down." Darry calmly told Dally. Dally couldn't take that. Darry telling him to calm down? That wasn't gonna work. He leapt toward Darry. Dally had taken him by surprise and had knocked him down. It took Darry all of 2 seconds to realize what happened. He rolled out of the way of Dally's fists. Dally didn't care that Darry was bigger or stronger. He was mad. He didn't want Raleigh to want Darry. Actually, he thought to himself, I don't know what I want. He continued to hit Darry. Raleigh was yelling for him to stop while being held back by Two-Bit.
"Nah, Raleigh, baby! Let them fight! This is live action. I don't have to pay to watch it." Two-Bit said as he held her back.
"Two-Bit, get off me!" She yelled at him. Soda, Steve, Johnny, and Pony came outside when they heard the noise.
"Well, what in the f***ing hell is going on here?" Steve asked while watching the 2 boys hit each other in the front yard. Johnny and Pony just looked at the whole scene in amazement. Two-Bit was having a pretty tough time trying to keep Raleigh and her hot little temper out of the fight. Soda and Steve were trying to get Darry and Dally separated. Pony went to help his brother and Johnny tried to help Two-Bit. Raleigh's eyes were practically on fire. When Darry and Dallas were finally separated Two-Bit let Raleigh go. She went over to Dallas and looked him straight in the eyes.
"What?" Dally asked while wiping the blood off his mouth. Darry had busted his lip and given him a black eye. Dally was in a pissy kind of mood. Well, who wouldn't be? Raleigh just stood there looking at Dally.
"What in the hell was all that about?" She asked with fire jumping in her eyes.
"I don't want him to ever touch you again. You understand?" He said motioning to Darry. She couldn't believe this. But she knew better that to push it with him and his temper. She just grabbed his arm and walked with him out to the street. When they had gotten out of earshot of everyone Raleigh let him have it.
"Dally, I don't know who in the hell you think you are, but you can NOT tell me who I can't date! Just because of that one night 4 years ago doesn't mean you own me. What in the hell is your damn problem?" When she had finished Dallas looked at her with a smirk on his face. She did remember that night.
"What in the f*** are you smiling about?" She asked him.
"Your temper is like gasoline on fire. You know that?" Dallas said as he began to walk off.
"Oh well, excuse me Mr. Never-gets-mad-drunk-ass! Last time I checked you had a temper too!" She spat out the words to him. He turned around to face her. He was wearing an ear-to-ear grin. He loved to make her mad. She saw that familiar look in his eyes that said, "Got cha' again." She relaxed and walked over to him. He pulled her close to him with his arms around her waist. Raleigh buried her face in Dallas' shoulder.
"Where am I supposed to sleep tonight?" She asked.
"Go over to Two-Bit's. I don't want you at Tim's or the Curtis' ya' hear me?" Dallas said with a firm voice.
"Yeah yeah whatever. I haven't exactly had a good night you know. First off, Soda doesn't recognize me. Then, I go to a dance and get dragged off by a bunch of creepy guys. After that, I make Darry pissed off because he thinks I like Tim. Then, we make up and you try to bit the living shit out of him, which I might add you didn't do to well." She said all of this very fast and gave Dallas a look.
"Damn girl! Don't you have an underworld to be ruling?" Dallas said as he hugged her again. "Come on. I'll walk you to Two-Bit's."
They started walking. Neither one said much besides and occasional insult. When they reached Two-Bit's house. Dally knocked on the door and waited for a very sleepy Two-Bit to answer.
"Two-Bit, Blaze is going to stay at your place tonight, aight?" Dallas said with a cold stare on his face.
"Yeah, whatever. Just don't try to beat me up, ok?!" Two-Bit said with a smirk. Raleigh turned to Dally and said, "Don't you go getting drunk or stoned or anything tonight, ok?"
"I'll stop when Two-Bit stops!" Dallas said knowing that Raleigh would immediately start in on Two-Bit. As she did, he quietly left her to yell at Two-Bit.
"Two-Bit, why do you get stoned? You are completely hopeless!" She yelled while tackling him. She sat on his rock hard stomach.
"Ya' know what?" Two-Bit said with a grin beginning to appear on his lips.
"Nah, what?" She replied.
"I don't think Dally would appreciate you screwing all his friends." He said with a huge smile. Raleigh punched him and leaned close to his face. Their lips were almost touching. Then she smiled an evil grin.
"I'll stop screwing, when he does."
