* In the lot *
As Dally walked up to the lot, he could hear crying. He saw Raleigh sitting under a tree, hugging her knees rocking back and forth. Dally hadn't seen what the others had, so he was totally clueless.
"Raleigh, baby, what's wrong? Huh? What happened?" He asked as he sat next to her.
"Why didn't I listen to you, Dal? Why couldn't I just have listened to you this one time? How do you always know when I am gonna get hurt?" She asked with tears in her eyes.
"Hey, hey what are you talking about? Tell me,"
"When I went upstairs to say hey to Darry and tell him we were all here, he...he was... he was on top of some girl. Yeah Dallas, Darry Curtis was screwing some girl. I don't who she was but I swear if I get my hands around her neck..." She trailed off and started to cry again as the image played over and over in her head.
"I didn't know he was gonna do that to you, Blaze. I swear. Don't go blaming yourself for any of this shit. I take care of his cheating ass. He'll get his. Don't you worry." Dally said as he help Raleigh up.
* Back at the house *
The girl had realized she had caused a big mess and decided to leave with a lot of influence from Steve. As soon as he had slammed the door, he turned to face Darry. Darry, who was looking like his dog had just gotten run over, knew what was coming. He was going to get the hell beat out of him. More than once. Soda was the first one to break the unbearable silence.
"Darry? What just happened?" He asked even though he already knew. Darry didn't seem drunk but when he spoke they all could tell.
"What? I was having a good time...then Raleigh...she walked in..oh shit!" Darry replied as the realization of the whole thing hit him like a Mack truck.
"What the hell were you thinking? That girl is in fucking love with you! How could you do that Darry?" Two-Bit shouted as he jumped out of his seat. Steve grabbed his arms to keep him from jumping on Darry.
"Why do you care? Two-Bit, you wouldn't know love. You're just like your dad. Screw 'em and leave 'em." Darry slurred out. Two-Bit struggled to get free. His hands were itching to hit Darry, as anger burned in his eyes.
"It's the booze, Two-Bit. He don't mean it." Steve said as he tightened his grip on Two-Bit's arms.
"Darry, I don't think you know what you're saying, pal." Tim said as he looked at his friend.
"Shut the hell up, Shepard. You're just jealous. Yeah, that's it...jealous. Raleigh wants me instead of you." Darry shot at him. Tim was about to jump up, but Curly grabbed a hold of his leg. Tim looked over at his younger brother, who simply shook his head. Tim got up and went out the door. Curly nodded at Soda and Pony before following.
"Darry, I think you need to go upstairs, and sleep a little bit. You're all riled up about nothing, now. Go to sleep, Superman." Soda said gently as he pushed Darry back up the stairs. Darry mumbled something that they weren't able to make out as he slumped up the stairs. Steve finally let Two-Bit go. He stormed out of the house leaving Soda, Steve, and a very, very confused Ponyboy.
"Sodapop? What just happened here?" He asked with a look of pure confusion on his face. Soda sat down by Steve and started to explain.
"Darry was all upset last night because of Darry fighting him. Well he has this thing for Raleigh. He told me that they kissed or something. Well he thought that she wouldn't want him after that whole thing with Dallas. He went and got drunk. That little skanky blonde that brought him home decided to stay. I guess Raleigh saw a little too much of what happens when Darry gets wasted." He said with a sigh. He leaned back and closed his eyes.
"Oh" Pony and Steve said at the same time.
"Well, where did Ms. Blaze run off to? I wonder if Dallas found her." Steve asked.
"Oh he found her alright." Dallas said as he walked in and caught the end of the conversation. All three of the boys jumped as he spoke.
"Damnit, Dally!" Soda said as he got up. Dallas looked like he was about to kill someone.
"Where is he?" He asked.
"Where's who?" Soda asked.
"The son of a bitch that hurt my Raleigh." Dally spit out while cracking his knuckles.
"Whoa, cowboy. Darry is upstairs and he is pretty drunk. Why don't you take a shot at him when he is not as boozed up? Huh?" Soda said trying to block Dallas' path to the stairs.
"Yeah, I think that Two-Bit and Tim already have him lined up. He was talking some shit about them that he didn't know about. He was too drunk." Steve said getting up to help hold back Dally. Dallas looked at them with fire in his blue eyes.
"Fine." Was all he said as he turned to leave. When he got outside Raleigh was waiting for him on the sidewalk.
"Come on kid. Lets find you a place to sleep tonight." He said as he wrapped an arm around his favorite person.
"Dal, can I stay with you tonight. I don't want to be alone, not after that." She asked quietly.
"Yeah kid, whatever you want." He replied walking in the direction of a place he hadn't been in a while...his home.
