Disclaimer: I own Roxi and Erica and S. E. Hinton knows anyone you do know.
~*Twobit*s POV*~
I looked at the hurt in Roxi's eyes and I knew I couldn't tell her brother. I wanted her to tell him herself but I knew she wouldn't. At first I didnt beleive her friends when they told me that she was anorexic, but as soon as I confronted her I knew they were right. We were walking home now and since it was late November it was cold. Of course Roxi didn't have a jacket so I casually slipped mine off and draped it over her shoulders. She looked at me with her eyes that looked like a child's. The mysterious blackness drew you in, but it was the warmth that kept you there.
"Thanks Twobit. That was real sweet of you."
"Im always real sweet. Just like honey." She laughed.
It was Friday and there was a long weekend ahead of us so I suggested we started it by going to The Dingo. She agreed and off we went. When we got there she was watching the road motionless. I turned to see what she was looking at and I noticed a blue mustang pulling up.
~*Roxi*s POV*~
We had just gotten to The Dingo when I noticed the car. I knew that Socs were trouble especially since I should be one. It was true and the gang knew it. I was rich and I should be a Soc yet I knew by nature I was a greaser and that I'd never fit in with Socs.
"Uh, Twobit? Maybe we ought to go in now."
"Let's see why there on this side of town."
"Um, Let's not and pretend we did."
~*Twobit*s POV*~ I looked at Roxi and she was pretty insistent about going inside. I wanted to see why they were here. I told her she could go in and I'd wait outside. Obviously something was wrong because she threw my jacket on the ground and ran off to the parked car. She turned to me and I could see tears streaming down her face. She jumped in the car and I raced towards it as it sped off. I walked to the Curtis house to tell them what had just happened.
~*Roxi*s POV*~ I couldn't beleive what I had just done. I had left my best friend in awe while I sped off with some Soc I hardly knew. We drove around for a while talking and he dropped me off at my house. The instant he drove away I was running to the Curtis' house with all my strength. I dashed up the stairs and bolted in the door. As quickly as I was in I collapsed.
~*Soda*s POV*~
Roxi ran in the door like someone was chasing her. She stood there for a second and then collapsed. Twobit caught her. I got a glass of ice water to give to her when she came around. After about 20 minutes she came to and the first thing she did was start crying.
"Did something bad happen Roxi?"
"No. I think I need some water or something."
I handed her the glass and she drank it quickly. I looked over at Twobit and he seemed to be amazed by this. He took her into the kitchen so he could talk to her alone and I went to my bedroom.
~*Twobit*s POV*~ I was so freaked by the fact she collapsed after she ran in. She was a great runner and never passed out no matter how far. Then I started to wonder where she began running.
"What happened? Where were you?"
She sighed and looked at me innocently. She answered my questions in a firm voice. "I was with that Soc all afternoon. He dropped me off at home after we talked for a while. I felt horrible thinking of how I was supposed to be with you and how I just ran off like that. So I ran from my house to here."
"You only ran from your house? But you only live a block and a half away. Why'd you pass out?"
She answered timidly. "I didn't eat anything all week. I guess I was just getting the effects of an empty stomach."
"I'm not going to tell Dallas."
"Your not?"
"No. You are. And I mean it. Either you tell him or-"
She bolted out of the house just as quickly as she had entered it earlier.
~*Roxi*s POV*~ I ran away from Twobit for the second time. I ran and ran until I reached the lot where I passed out again.
~*Dallas*s POV*~ I was walking by the lot and I saw this girl just lying there. I figured i'd investigate and walked up to her. What I found was my little sister Roxi unconcious.I knelt down and shook her softly.
"Hey Roxi baby. It's Dally. Wake up." She began to awaken. She slowly opened her eyes and sat up.
"Dally!" She looked at me with hurt eyes. I think she was keeping something from me but I knew better then to ask while she was in this state. I began to wonder if my little Roxi was ok.
