Ok sorry to anyone who didn't like the last chapter, at least we are having fun writing it, but we are also trying to make everyone reading it happy too, hope you like this chapter better.

*Dallys POV*

I knew I shouldn't have let those damn socs take her. When all this is over I swear I will get a god damn gun myself......

" Dally are you ok?" Rina asked me. We were sitting on the Curtis's sofa waiting for the rest of the guys to show up and head toward Pep's Rodeo.

"Yeah I am ok" I said but didn't take my eyes off of the TV screen.

"You just seem a little distracted, are you gonna be able to ride today?" She asked worried.

" Yeah I am going to be able to ride today........wouldn't want to miss it" I said. I could feel more anger coming into me

"I hope so Dally." She replied softly as the gang started to arrive.

" I will Rina, everything is going to be fine" I said while getting up from the sofa and walking towards the bathroom.

" You ready Dal?" Steve yelled from the doorway of the house. I turned on the water from the sink and splashed some on my face.

"Yea in a minute." I yelled back as I turned off the water.

"Well hurry up we're gonna be late." He yelled back as I walked out to the living room again.

"Yeah, Yeah" I muttered. The rest of the guys were already in the car waiting for me.

When we got to the rodeo grounds the socs were already there waiting.

"Well it sure as hell took you long enough Winston, and I see you've brought my prize." Phillips said as Rina hid behind me.

" Fuck off Phillips!! You remember the deal, if I win you stay AWAY from her and if I lose.........." - I said -

" I get your girl" Philips finished what I was saying while grinning.

"Its not gonna happen Phillips, I'm gonna win this, you'll see." I said putting an arm protectively around Rina as we walked away.

I heard laughter from behind us. I had the urge to walk over there right now and beat the shit out of all of them but I had other things on my mind.

"You can do this Dally. I know you can." I was pulled out of my thoughts by Rina's voice; I hadn't even noticed that we had reached the other side of the arena.

I smiled at her while nodding my head. I turned my attention to the guys who were already goofing off. " Hey guys!!" I yelled trying to get them to stop yelling at the socs on the other side.

"You guys don't let Rina out of your site, if one of those soc's get to her while I am riding...."

" OK Dally, just chill we will keep an eye on her" Steve said rolling his eyes

"I mean it Steve, if anything happens while I'm riding, I swear I'll kill whoever let it happen." I said turning back to Rina,

"Stay close to them and if anything happens in the race run. Got it?"

" got it" She said while her eyes moved toward the other side of the arena. I noticed that Phillips was staring at her, Rina looked away and it seemed as if she started to shake. The socs started to laugh. I flipped the bird at them.

"Its gonna be ok, I wont let anything happen to you." I whispered as the announcer called Phillips and my names.

Dally went on his horse and made his way toward his starting point. He saw Philips coming toward him with his horse.

" Take all your time looking at your girlfriend now Winston cause this is going to be the last time you see her...." He said.

"Its not gonna happen, you should be the one getting one last look cause your never going near her again."

Joshua let out a laugh. " If you say Winston....." He said while tugging on his horse's reins, moving into a different direction.

"Fuck off Phillips." I yelled as I went to my side of the gate to start the race.

All Dally could hear was yelling from the socs and yelling back from the gang. I had to win this for Rina....he didn't want to those bastards to win.

"Racers set? On your marks......get set.......GO!" The announcer yelled as he hit the bell for us to begin our 5 laps around the arena.

I moved my horse into a fast gallop, made a quick curve around one barrel, then another; nothing new, this is going to be easy.

I glanced over at Phillips who was neck and neck with me, Damn I gotta get ahead of him. I thought as I looked ahead again and snapped the reins trying to get the horse to go faster.

My horse was in great speed but Joshua was still close. I had to go faster but if I went around a barrel that is a good way for my horse to slip. As I was going around a barrel I heard a scream. It was Rina. I looked back and saw some socs surround her. The gang was trying to get them away and it looked like they were about to fight them off. I wasn't looking where I was going, the horse reared up, making me fall.

After I hit the ground I looked over at Joshua who had just passed me laughing as I tried to get back on my horse as quickly as I could.

"Shit" I muttered to myself. By the time I was on my horse Joshua was already far ahead. I pulled the horse's reins tighter and tighter not caring how fast I was going.

We were in the last lap and Joshua was still ahead but I was catching up, but I wasn't catching up fast enough as he crossed the finish line seconds before I did.

I didn't stop my horse; instead I turned it around and rode as fast as I could to the other side of the arena. Joshua was still right next to me.

" You lost you bastard, she is mine"

"Not if I can help it Phillips." I yelled back as we reached the other side of the arena where the gang was fighting the socs, they must have missed what happened because Rina was there too,

I jumped of the horse and started running toward them. " Run Rina!! Run!!" I yelled.

She looked up at me confused and turned to run but ran into another soc who had come up behind her.

"Let her go jackass!!" I yelled while still running. Suddenly Joshua found a way to ran in front of me and stop me.

"Lay off Winston, she is mine. We made a deal remember?? You lost, and I get the grand prize"

"DALLY!" Rina screamed as the soc holding her put a hand over her mouth,

"Look you won isn't that enough just let her go."

" no way, I want something to remember the race I won against the so-called best Rodeo rider in Tulsa, Dallas Winston." Joshua said while making his way toward Rina.

"You wouldn't have won if your goon squad hadn't of gone near Rina, they distracted me and made me lose so we should have a rematch." I said desperately trying to think of something

Joshua started to laugh. " Your pathetic Winston. She has really turned you into a soft little punk. Where is the tough greaser that everyone is afraid of?? Are you going to let her do this to you?? Pretty soon there will be no more reputation for you, everyone will know you as a wimp not a hoodlum. If I were you, I would let us take her. It'll save your life"

"Fuck you, I want Rina back and I want her now Phillips." I said glaring at him.

"Let her go asshole." Angel said stepping up next to me.

Joshua stared at Angel grinning. " And who are you baby?" Joshua asked.

"I might be the girl that's gonna kick your ass if you don't let my best friend go right now." Angel said threateningly

Joshua started to laugh. He whispered something into one of the soc's ears that had Rina. The soc let go of Rina but before Rina could run away Joshua grabbed her.

" Let me go!!" Rina yelled. I started to walk toward them but Joshua stepped back.

" I wouldn't do that Winston" Before I could reply they heard Angel yell.

" Leave me alone!!" She yelled. The soc that had Rina before was coming toward Angel

"Let them go." I said reaching for my back pocket slowly, before I knew it the soc that had grabbed Angel was on the ground; I turned to see Soda standing protectively in front of her cussing at the soc.

"Don't even try it" Sodapop warned. I turned my attention back to Joshua.

" Half of your buddies already ran or are injured. If you want to try to fight me and the rest of my gang ok. But then you might as well kill yourself....now let her the fuck go" I said.

"Fine, Bobby leave That other girl alone, Rina's ours tho." Joshua said grinning

" No Joshua, she stays. Just......leave her alone!! Look I will make the deal I made last night, I will give you my blade and you can fight me with nothing but my fists for protection but you have to let her go...now!!"

"You know that's tempting Winston, but I think I'd rather have your girl, you understand." He replied smirking as he put his arms around Rina.

I was almost out of ideas, I didn't know what do to. " Joshua just........pl....please let her go" I felt sick, never before in my life have I ever said please to someone.

He looked at me and grinned,

"Well Winston she really has changed you hasn't she?" He asked

I shook my head, I felt my face get red.

" Shut up........" I muttered.

"You know Winston? We'll let her go, but since you didn't win I don't have to keep up my end of the deal, I'll be back Winston,"

I didn't say anything. Joshua looked at me and started to shake his hand. Before he let Rina go he kissed her cheek and whispered in her ear

" I'll be back sweetie" Rina shivered and looked away. He finally let her go and she ran toward me.

"Rina you ok?" I asked as I pulled her into a hug, I glared at Joshua as him and his friends walked away laughing and smirking at us.

She nodded her head yes. I kissed the top of her head and looked around at the other guys. Some of them were banged up pretty bad, I didn't know how long that little rumble of theirs happened with the socs.

"Come on guys, lets get back to the house," I said keeping an arm around Rina, the guys nodded and we started back towards the car slowly.



~Well that's it for now, what did ya think? Please review, thanx.~
