Chapter 2: Bad Night

I met Evie by the movie theater. We never really watched the movie, and we never just met there-we usually took my car, but for some reason Evie wanted to meet me at the theaters instead of me driving her there. I got to behind the snack counter and saw....MY Evie making out with some guy I saw around and his hand up her skirt.
"What the hell is this?!" I asked outraged as they stopped to look at me.
"We're making out, Steve, that's what," the guy said, "Evie told me of how bad you were and I decided I could help. She's MY girl now."
"Excuse me? What the hell do you think you are, trying to steal my girl?!" I yelled.
"Don't yell at him!" Evie yelled at me, "He's right! I only went to him because you never spend any time with me and when you do-you're always so bad at what you do!"
I stopped yelling and looked at them. That guy-with his hands touching her and Evie-being the slut she was-my anger grew with every single step I took as I came over there and starting fighting that little bastard while Evie was on the side crying for him and screaming for me to stop. I couldn't. All my anger went out on the little shit as he was done down to crying for me to stop.
"You little jerk!" Evie yelled as I walked away, "We're through!"
"I noticed!" I yelled back as she cried over her new little boy. Well, that sure ruins my plans for the night. I sure as hell didn't want to go back to the Curtises and see the guys. I turned to go back to my house and get some shut-eye and try to get over that little tramp.
¡°Hey, Randle!¡± Tim Shepherd yelled to me as I walked past. I glared at him and walked by as he laughed.
¡°So Steve loses his temper again,¡± he calls out as I flick him off. Stupid little bastard.
I lammed the door open and shut, and to add to a most pleasant day was my dad-with surrounding beer cans on the ground. Shit!
¡°Where in the mother fucking hell have you BEEN?!¡± he yelled as I went passed him. He grabbed my arms and pulled me back, and no matter how hard I tried, I couldn¡¯t get him to get off.
¡°You¡¯re causing trouble again!¡± he yelled, ¡°You good for nothing hood!¡±
¡°You¡¯re one to talk!¡± I spat back, struggling to get away. He smacked me a good one and I landed hard on the floor. Grabbing me again, he threw me out of the house, and told me to never come back again or he¡¯d kill me.
¡°Steve¡¦.Steve are you okay?¡± I heard Soda¡¯s voice. I opened my eyes groaning and saw my best friend hovering over me and looking concerned.
¡°Yeah, just as always,¡± I answered half truthfully and half sarcastically.
¡°C¡¯mon, let¡¯s go to my house and clean you up,¡± he said, helping me up-or at least trying to.
¡°Nah, I¡¯ll be fine here,¡± I said, looking back at my house.
¡°Steve, are you crazy!?! No you won¡¯t, at least not for tonight you won¡¯t be,¡± Soda pleaded, ¡°Please, Steve, come over to my house for the night.¡±
It pained me to watch his face sadden up, so I agreed-like always. As we walked to their house, guess who we saw.
¡°Steve, don¡¯t uh, don¡¯t turn around,¡± Soda said nervously, but I already knew.
¡°Don¡¯t worry, I already knew about Evie screwing around with that little piss,¡± I angrily said and walked faster as he quickened his pace, too.
¡°Sorry,¡± he said, ¡°I know how you feel like,¡± and then I remembered Sandy¡¦.the little bitch who got pregnant with some guy and left Sandy.
We were silent-all the way to his house, where Two-Bit was acting hyper and entertaining Pony, Darry, and Johnny, with probably another one of his jokes.
¡°Hey, Steve, you look a little puffed up!¡± he said, punching me in the arm. I kept quiet even though it hurt like hell and glared at him and sat down while Soda worked on me with the first aid kit; Pony and Johnny staring wide-eyed at me.
¡°The ol¡¯ man do it to ya?¡± Two-Bit asked, still cheerful but calm.
¡°Whatta ya think?¡± I asked, particularly annoyed. And for a few moments it was silent, until Two-Bit finally couldn¡¯t shut his mouth any longer and started talking again. Sighing, I went to the guest bedroom and plopped on the bed, lying there¡¦.staring at the ceiling.
¡°Steve?¡± Soda asked softly, coming in.
¡°What?!¡± I asked irritated without meaning to be.
¡°Are you going to be okay, buddy?¡± he asked, sitting on the foot of the bed.
¡°Yeah, I¡¯ll be fine,¡± I said, ¡°Just¡¦.just let me sleep for awhile, okay?¡±
¡°All right,¡± he said, ¡°¡¯Night. Take care of yourself, okay?¡±
And with that said, he closed the door quietly, but did not close it all the way. I rolled over to my side and said aloud, ¡°I don¡¯t know if I can,¡± and with that I fell asleep.
