Actually..I just came up with another idea on how to end the story so no this is not going to be the last chapter. Yeah..I only own, Daphne, Riley, Carmen ..and I think that's it. Yeah. Here's the story! Oh yeah..thanks for all the reviews especially those peoples who write long reviews! They make me happy!! Lol!!
(****Riley's POV****)
"Soda," I sighed and leaned my head on his shoulder. "I promise you that I won't get killed, but I can't promise you that I'm not going to go over to Buck's in the morning." Soda shook his head.
"Please Riley, I don't want you to get hurt. I love you." I smiled. I liked the sound of the words I love you.
"Don't worry about me Soda. I'm a Soc and according to you guys we get through everything untouched."
"I know better now, Riley. You guys have problems, just like us." I took my head off his shoulder and whispered into his ear.
"I guess we do." I smiled a little. "We're not that much different afterall, are we?"
"No." He grinned his famous Sodapop Curtis grin and kissed me. I was enjoying this. Don't get me wrong, I was still worried about Daphne, and what I was going to do the next day about Buck, and I was worried that if something went wrong between me and Soda would I cut myself again. But I deserved this peace right now. I had been through enough, I needed for my life to get calm..or atleast calmer.
"You can't go to Buck's in the morning. You have school." I smiled a little.
"I can skip. I've already ruined my reputation enough, why not ruin it more?" I laughed a little, but Soda didn't. "I'm sorry Soda but I'm going to go no matter what you say."
I could tell he wasn't going to give in. "Just forget it Soda, but for tonight I'm staying here?" He nodded his head and smiled at me. Then we started kissing each other.
"Ahm." Darry cleared his throat. I pulled away from Soda a little, smiling.
"Hi..umm Darry.." I said this in a bittersweet voice and acted all innocent. Soda turned to Darry and grinned.
"Don't try to act all innocent with me Riley and Soda! I saw what you guys were doin!" Darry just shook his head and sat down in the chair. "Pony's still sound asleep and Daphne fell asleep the minute she went in there. Those to make a cute couple, ya know?" I laughed.
"Yeah, well, maybe we can get them together sometime. I'm sure it wouldn't be to much trouble, there's only what a years difference?" I asked and laughed when Soda's eyes grew big and he nodded eagerly.
"That would be perfect! Maybe we could double date!" Darry threw a pillow at Soda then and he groaned a little.
"Aww come on Dar, I'm still wounded! Don't throw stuff at me!"
"Yeah," I agreed, "don't throw stuff at Sodapop!"
"I see you two are ok now!" Steve strolled in the door with Carmen right behind him.
"Hey Carm," I waved to her. "Hey Stevie!" I laughed when he glared at me for using his nickname. Steve and Carmen flopped down on the floor and automatically started talking to each other, ignoring me, Soda, and Darry. I rolled my eyes at Soda who returned my gesture.
"Do you guys not have a home?" Darry asked, a slight hint of annoyance in his voice.
"Come on Dar, let 'em stay." I said.
"You were one of the people I was implying!" Darry smirked at me and Soda put his arm around me.
"She's not going anywhere Dar!"
"Fine. Its late, get to bed, I'm going to bed. I have to get up early in the morning. Got an early roofing job. Stupid Mrs. Johanson," I heard Darry grumble and go down the hall and into his bedroom.
"If you guys wouldn't mind, me and Riley would like to be alone." Soda looked down to Carmen and Steve who stood up.
"Fine, we'll leave. See you tomorrow at school Riley?" Carm wondered and I shook my head.
"No. I'm not going tomorrow. You know with everything that's happened..and I have some business to take care of." I looked at the ground and silently willed for Soda to help me out on my excuse, because Carmen was looking at me strangely.
"She's just tired, with everything going on." Thank you, I prayed to Soda. Carmen nodded her head and left, following Steve.
"Thanks Soda." I smiled and layed down on the couch with my feet propped up on Soda's lap. He grinned.
"Anytime. Anytime." With that we both fell asleep.
